• BasicEventArgs renamed to StdEventArgs for clarity.

• EventArgs changes
  • Added BasicEventArgs as a standard EventArgs derived type. It includes a whenOccurred field that contains the date and time the Event was broadcast, as well as an optional description field.
  • Renamed EventArgs1 and EventArgs2 to GenericEventArgs1 and GenericEventArgs2 respectively, to better indicate their purpose. Both are now derived from BasicEventArgs, meaning that they have whenOccurred and (optional) description fields.
  • Improvements to documentation
• Minor improvements to Event documentation.

• Add new method unsubscribeAll, to unsubscribe all subscribers (handlers).

Breaking Change

The function signature for an Event has been simplified. The sender argument has been removed, leaving only the need to provide an optional argument derived from type EventArgs.

The sender argument was previously intended to be used to provide the source of the Event, or the object in which the Event was declared, to a subscriber. This can be equally well done within an EventArg passed as an argument to a subscriber.

// Before
// subscribe to onValueChanged Event
myCounter.onValueChanged + (sender, args) => print('before');

// Now
// subscribe to onValueChanged Event
myCounter.onValueChanged + (args) => print('after');

Other Breaking Changes

• Renamed addHandler and removeHandler methods to subscribe and unsubscribe respectively.
• Renamed raise methods to broadcast.
• Method broadcastWithSubject removed to reflect to removal of sender described above.
• The count method has been renamed to `subscriberCount'

Other

• Two general purpose EventArg derived classes (EventArgs1 and EventArgs2) have been included, which offers a quick alternative to producing your own custom EventArgs class.

EventArgs1 supports one generic value, while EventArgs2 supports two. Example:-

// EventArgs1 (one value)
var e = Event<EventArgs1<String>>();
e.subscribe((args) => print(args.value));
e.broadcast(EventArgs1('hello'));
// prints hello

// EventArgs2 (two values)
var e = Event<EventArgs2<String, int>>();
e.subscribe((args) => print('${args.value1} - ${args.value2}'));
e.broadcast(EventArgs2('boom', 37));
// prints boom - 37
