Service Registration property specifying the delivery qualities requested by an Event Handler service.

DELIVERY_ASYNC_ORDERED, DELIVERY_ASYNC_UNORDERED

Service Registration property specifying a filter to further select Event s of interest to an Event Handler service.

Event handlers MAY be registered with this property. The value of this property is a string containing an LDAP-style filter specification. Any of the event's properties may be used in the filter expression. Each event handler is notified for any event which belongs to the topics in which the handler has expressed an interest. If the event handler is also registered with this service property, then the properties of the event must also match the filter for the event to be delivered to the event handler.

If the filter syntax is invalid, then the Event Handler must be ignored and a warning should be logged.

The value of this property must be of type String.

Service registration property specifying the Event topics of interest to an Event Handler service.

Event handlers SHOULD be registered with this property. Each value of this property is a string that describe the topics in which the handler is interested. An asterisk ('*') may be used as a trailing wildcard. Event Handlers which do not have a value for this property must not receive events. More precisely, the value of each string must conform to the following grammar:

 topic-description := '*' | topic ( '/*' )?
 topic := token ( '/' token )*

The value of this property must be of type String, String[], or Collection<String>.
