Description

AbstractOutputProcessor implements OutputProcessor.
It needlessly redirects OutputProcessor.processNextEvent to a new abstract method AbstractOutputProcessor.processEvent with the exact same purpose and signature.
This is unnecessarily confusing.
It would be simpler and better to remove that abstract method and let subclasses implement processEvent from the interface straight away instead.
