Record listeners allow applications to be notified when records are added, changed, or deleted from a record store. A record listener interface defines callback methods that are called when these events occur. To implement a record listener, a class must implement the RecordListener interface and provide code for the recordAdded, recordChanged, and recordDeleted methods. The document also describes five exceptions related to record stores that can be thrown, such as when a record store is full or a requested record ID is invalid.
