Download the project and build it, then include the dll in your project.
First you need to include the usaging statement:
using SimpleEventBus.Bus;
Secondly you create your Bus object:
Bus bus = Bus.GetInstance(bool? autoSearch, BindingFlags? flags);
bool? autoSearchenables/disables the automatic search for the Subscribe attribute on creation.BindingFlags? flagssets what methods the autosearch should look for. Default: Static | NonPublic | Public
Then you have two options:
- either mark your methods with the SubscribeAttribute like so:
[Subscribe("CallName")]
private static void HandleSomething(param 1, ..., param 16) {}
- or subscribe manually:
Bus.GetInstance().Subscribe("CallName", HandleSomething);
private void HandleSomething(param 1, ..., param 16) {}
The call name can be any string, but be careful since its cace sensitive. You should manually subscribe instance methods to avoid problems with expected instance data.
To publish an event you simply call:
Bus.GetInstance().Publish("CallName", object[] data);
The bus will then invoke all methods with the same string you provided with the given data.
To unsubscribe an method from an event you call:
Bus.GetInstance().Unsubscribe("CallName", Delegate method);
Be sure than when you publish an event, the given data fits in the parameters of all subscribed methods. For example:
[Subscribe("TestName")]
void Test(string test) {}
Bus.GetInstance().Publish("TestName", ["Test"]) \\ this will work
Bus.GetInstance().Publish("TestName", ["Test1", "Test2"]) \\ this wont work
Bus.GetInstance().Publish("TestName", []) \\ this wont work
When you want a instance method to subscribe to an event, dont use the attribute since it will create a new instance of the object so it wont have the expected instance data.
