	/**
	 * Event listener hook method. This method is called prior to service event
	 * delivery when a publishing bundle registers, modifies or unregisters a
	 * service. This method can filter the listeners which receive the event.
	 * 
	 * @param event The service event to be delivered.
	 * @param listeners A map of Bundle Contexts to a collection of Listener
	 *        Infos for the bundle's listeners to which the specified event will
	 *        be delivered. The implementation of this method may remove bundle
	 *        contexts from the map and listener infos from the collection
	 *        values to prevent the event from being delivered to the associated
	 *        listeners. The map supports all the optional {@code Map}
	 *        operations except {@code put} and {@code putAll}. Attempting to
	 *        add to the map will result in an
	 *        {@code UnsupportedOperationException}. The collection values in
	 *        the map supports all the optional {@code Collection} operations
	 *        except {@code add} and {@code addAll}. Attempting to add to a
	 *        collection will result in an {@code UnsupportedOperationException}
	 *        . The map and the collections are not synchronized.
