+ If, in such a case, the listener notification is one-way, you can decide to do it
+ asynchronously.
+
+ The ->AsyncEventNotifier helps you to process such events asynchronously. Every
+ event is tied to an ->IEventProcessor which is responsible for processing it.
+
+ The AsyncEventNotifier is implemented as a thread itself, which sleeps as long as there are no
+ events in the queue. As soon as you add an event, the thread is woken up, processes the event,
+ and sleeps again.
