Public Member Functions

 EventSource ()
 
 EventSource (const EventSource &evSource)
 
 ~EventSource () override
 
void addEventListener (BaseEventCallback *cb, void *userData)
 add event listener callback to this Base object - the userData will be the first argument when the callback is called
 
void removeEventListener (BaseEventCallback *cb, void *userData)
 remove event listener callback from this Base object - arguments must be the same as for the addEventListener call
 
bool hasEventListeners () const
 check if any event listeners have been added to this Base object; this can be used to skip the sendEvent call (and the potentially expensive building of the event object) altogether

Member Function Documentation

◆ addEventListener()

void ml::EventSource::addEventListener ( BaseEventCallback * cb,
void * userData )

add event listener callback to this Base object - the userData will be the first argument when the callback is called

◆ hasEventListeners()

bool ml::EventSource::hasEventListeners ( ) const

check if any event listeners have been added to this Base object; this can be used to skip the sendEvent call (and the potentially expensive building of the event object) altogether

◆ removeEventListener()

void ml::EventSource::removeEventListener ( BaseEventCallback * cb,
void * userData )

remove event listener callback from this Base object - arguments must be the same as for the addEventListener call

◆ sendEvent()

void ml::EventSource::sendEvent ( BaseEvent * event,
void * skipListener = nullptr )
protected

Macro for the declaration of the runtime type system methods, defined in mlRuntimeSubClass.h.

pass event object to all registered listeners, ownership stays with the sender (so you can create the event object on the stack). If skipListener is set to a non-NULL value, the event will not be sent to any listeners that have the same userData set, so you can avoid to be notified of your own changes.
