You are right! I will prepare a short design overview of Asterisk-Java so=
on.

That's a valid question. I had a look at the source of
DefaultManagerConnection and noticed that a HashSet is used to store the
event handlers.
Therefore with the current release it is impossible to predict which even=
t
handler will be notified first.
I will change that to a List. Then the event handlers are called in the
same order as they were added to the ManagerConnection, i.e. if you pass
the ManagerConnection to DefaultAsteriskManager before adding your own
event handler it will work as you described above.

Ok, then Channel and Queue state change events will work fine for you.
