I do not know of any 'event' fired in case of screen resolution
change, but you might start a Thread (or Runnable or 
javax.swing.Timer) and check the screen resolution against 
a cached 'last known size'.

Why is it important to know?

BTW - the word 'I' should always be uppercase, and each 
sentence should also start with a single upper case letter.

 I am writing a GUI without layout manager, this GUI should support 2 
resolutions.
Therefor It could be nice if can listen to a resolution's change.

That's interesting. Why are you not using a layout manager?

I agree about the interesting part.  I am a strong advocate of the 
fact that if there is any complexity whatsoever in a custom layout,
it should be encapsulated (written, coded) in a LayoutManager.

( Definining a custom layout manager is a lot easier than most
people think. )

OTOH - a lot of the things people expect can only be provided 
by a custom LM (or a null LM) can coded using Sun standard
LMs, just by using 'nested layouts'.
