* This method is called when information about an image which was
* previously requested using an asynchronous interface becomes
* available. Asynchronous interfaces are method calls such as
* getWidth(ImageObserver) and drawImage(img, x, y, ImageObserver)
* which take an ImageObserver object as an argument. Those methods
* register the caller as interested either in information about
* the overall image itself (in the case of getWidth(ImageObserver))
* or about an output version of an image (in the case of the
* drawImage(img, x, y, [w, h,] ImageObserver) call).
*
* <p>This method
* should return true if further updates are needed or false if the
* required information has been acquired. The image which was being
* tracked is passed in using the img argument. Various constants
* are combined to form the infoflags argument which indicates what
* information about the image is now available. The interpretation
* of the x, y, width, and height arguments depends on the contents
* of the infoflags argument.
* <p>

* <b>OR</b> of the following flags: <code>WIDTH</code>,

* @param x the <i>x</i> coordinate.
