/**
 * An event which indicates that a mouse action occurred in a component.
 * A mouse action is considered to occur in a particular component if and only
 * if the mouse cursor is over the unobscured part of the component's bounds
 * when the action happens.
 * For lightweight components, such as Swing's components, mouse events
 * are only dispatched to the component if the mouse event type has been
 * enabled on the component. A mouse event type is enabled by adding the
 * appropriate mouse-based {@code EventListener} to the component
 * ({@link MouseListener} or {@link MouseMotionListener}), or by invoking
 * {@link Component#enableEvents(long)} with the appropriate mask parameter
 * ({@code AWTEvent.MOUSE_EVENT_MASK} or {@code AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK}).
 * If the mouse event type has not been enabled on the component, the
 * corresponding mouse events are dispatched to the first ancestor that
 * has enabled the mouse event type.
 *<p>
 * For example, if a {@code MouseListener} has been added to a component, or
 * {@code enableEvents(AWTEvent.MOUSE_EVENT_MASK)} has been invoked, then all
 * the events defined by {@code MouseListener} are dispatched to the component.
 * On the other hand, if a {@code MouseMotionListener} has not been added and
 * {@code enableEvents} has not been invoked with
 * {@code AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK}, then mouse motion events are not
 * dispatched to the component. Instead the mouse motion events are
 * dispatched to the first ancestors that has enabled mouse motion
 * events.
 * <P>
 * This low-level event is generated by a component object for:
 * <ul>
 * <li>Mouse Events
 *     <ul>
 *     <li>a mouse button is pressed
 *     <li>a mouse button is released
 *     <li>a mouse button is clicked (pressed and released)
 *     <li>the mouse cursor enters the unobscured part of component's geometry
 *     <li>the mouse cursor exits the unobscured part of component's geometry
 *     </ul>
 * <li> Mouse Motion Events
 *     <ul>
 *     <li>the mouse is moved
 *     <li>the mouse is dragged
 *     </ul>
 * </ul>
 * <P>
 * A {@code MouseEvent} object is passed to every
 * {@code MouseListener}
 * or {@code MouseAdapter} object which is registered to receive
 * the "interesting" mouse events using the component's
 * {@code addMouseListener} method.
 * ({@code MouseAdapter} objects implement the
 * {@code MouseListener} interface.) Each such listener object
 * gets a {@code MouseEvent} containing the mouse event.
 * <P>
 * A {@code MouseEvent} object is also passed to every
 * {@code MouseMotionListener} or
 * {@code MouseMotionAdapter} object which is registered to receive
 * mouse motion events using the component's
 * {@code addMouseMotionListener}
 * method. ({@code MouseMotionAdapter} objects implement the
 * {@code MouseMotionListener} interface.) Each such listener object
 * gets a {@code MouseEvent} containing the mouse motion event.
 * <P>
 * When a mouse button is clicked, events are generated and sent to the
 * registered {@code MouseListener}s.
 * The state of modal keys can be retrieved using {@link InputEvent#getModifiers}
 * and {@link InputEvent#getModifiersEx}.
 * The button mask returned by {@link InputEvent#getModifiers} reflects
 * only the button that changed state, not the current state of all buttons.
 * (Note: Due to overlap in the values of ALT_MASK/BUTTON2_MASK and
 * META_MASK/BUTTON3_MASK, this is not always true for mouse events involving
 * modifier keys).
 * To get the state of all buttons and modifier keys, use
 * {@link InputEvent#getModifiersEx}.
 * The button which has changed state is returned by {@link MouseEvent#getButton}
 * <P>
 * For example, if the first mouse button is pressed, events are sent in the
 * following order:
 * <pre><b>
 *    id              modifiers    button</b>{@code
 *    MOUSE_PRESSED:  BUTTON1_MASK BUTTON1
 *    MOUSE_RELEASED: BUTTON1_MASK BUTTON1
 *    MOUSE_CLICKED:  BUTTON1_MASK BUTTON1
 * }</pre>
 * When multiple mouse buttons are pressed, each press, release, and click
 * results in a separate event.
 * <P>
 * For example, if the user presses <b>button 1</b> followed by
 * <b>button 2</b>, and then releases them in the same order,
 * the following sequence of events is generated:
 * <pre><b>
 *    id              modifiers    button</b>{@code
 *    MOUSE_PRESSED:  BUTTON1_MASK BUTTON1
 *    MOUSE_PRESSED:  BUTTON2_MASK BUTTON2
 *    MOUSE_RELEASED: BUTTON1_MASK BUTTON1
 *    MOUSE_CLICKED:  BUTTON1_MASK BUTTON1
 *    MOUSE_RELEASED: BUTTON2_MASK BUTTON2
 *    MOUSE_CLICKED:  BUTTON2_MASK BUTTON2
 * }</pre>
 * If <b>button 2</b> is released first, the
 * {@code MOUSE_RELEASED}/{@code MOUSE_CLICKED} pair
 * for {@code BUTTON2_MASK} arrives first,
 * followed by the pair for {@code BUTTON1_MASK}.
 * <p>
 * Some extra mouse buttons are added to extend the standard set of buttons
 * represented by the following constants:{@code BUTTON1}, {@code BUTTON2}, and {@code BUTTON3}.
 * Extra buttons have no assigned {@code BUTTONx}
 * constants as well as their button masks have no assigned {@code BUTTONx_DOWN_MASK}
 * constants. Nevertheless, ordinal numbers starting from 4 may be
 * used as button numbers (button ids). Values obtained by the
 * {@link InputEvent#getMaskForButton(int) getMaskForButton(button)} method may be used
 * as button masks.
 * <p>
 * {@code MOUSE_DRAGGED} events are delivered to the {@code Component}
 * in which the mouse button was pressed until the mouse button is released
 * (regardless of whether the mouse position is within the bounds of the
 * {@code Component}).  Due to platform-dependent Drag&amp;Drop implementations,
 * {@code MOUSE_DRAGGED} events may not be delivered during a native
 * Drag&amp;Drop operation.
 *
 * In a multi-screen environment mouse drag events are delivered to the
 * {@code Component} even if the mouse position is outside the bounds of the
 * {@code GraphicsConfiguration} associated with that
 * {@code Component}. However, the reported position for mouse drag events
 * in this case may differ from the actual mouse position:
 * <ul>
 * <li>In a multi-screen environment without a virtual device:
 * <br>
 * The reported coordinates for mouse drag events are clipped to fit within the
 * bounds of the {@code GraphicsConfiguration} associated with
 * the {@code Component}.
 * <li>In a multi-screen environment with a virtual device:
 * <br>
 * The reported coordinates for mouse drag events are clipped to fit within the
 * bounds of the virtual device associated with the {@code Component}.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * An unspecified behavior will be caused if the {@code id} parameter
 * of any particular {@code MouseEvent} instance is not
 * in the range from {@code MOUSE_FIRST} to {@code MOUSE_LAST}-1
 * ({@code MOUSE_WHEEL} is not acceptable).
