Is that normal behavior ? The java docs don't talk about the sequence of events, but I presumed that the notifier would just makes it's notification then get on with whatever it has to do next and not care about what the listeners are doing, or how long it takes them to do it.
this is normal ... receipt of notifications happens in-thread with the event dispatch, which is actually required in some cases, since WO/EOF use notifications in several cases for synchronous events (when a new eoadaptor channel is needed, for instance).

Do i just need to stick the listeners job into a thread to get it to run in the background ?
I would personally recommend using a Java 1.5 ExecutorPool rather than doing anything with your own threads (you don't want to kill your app because you're spawning tons of threads by accident).
