java.awt.image.ImageObserver (JDK 1.0)

This interface defines a method and associated constants used by classes that want to receive information asynchronously about the status of an image. Many methods that query information about an image take an ImageObserver as an argument. If the specified information is not available when requested, it is passed to the ImageObserver when it becomes available. Component implements this interface, and components are the most commonly used image observers.
