/**
 * Contains methods for registering listeners to be notified
 * of events fired when objects named in a directory context changes.
 *<p>
 * The methods in this interface support identification of objects by 
 * <A HREF="ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2254.txt">RFC 2254</a>
 * search filters.
 *
 *<P>Using the search filter, it is possible to register interest in objects 
 * that do not exist at the time of registration but later come into existence and
 * satisfy the filter.  However, there might be limitations in the extent
 * to which this can be supported by the service provider and underlying
 * protocol/service.  If the caller submits a filter that cannot be
 * supported in this way, <tt>addNamingListener()</tt> throws an
 * <tt>InvalidSearchFilterException</tt>.
 *<p>
 * See <tt>EventContext</tt> for a description of event source
 * and target, and information about listener registration/deregistration
 * that are also applicable to methods in this interface.
 * See the
 * <a href=package-summary.html#THREADING>package description</a>
 * for information on threading issues.
 *<p>
 * A <tt>SearchControls</tt> or array object
 * passed as a parameter to any method is owned by the caller.
 * The service provider will not modify the object or keep a reference to it.
