Usage

Basic Handlers

To create a basic EventHandeler just stick the @EventHandler Annotation to a method which needs one argument of type Event and the EventPublisher will do the rest.

#!java
@EventHandler
public void handle(Event event) {
  // ToDo: Handle Event
}

Specific Handlers

To select a specific Event just set the type Parameter in the @EventHandler Annotation.

#!java
@EventHandler(type=MyOwnEvent.class)
public void handle(MyOwnEvent event) {
  // ToDo: Handle Event
}

Adding Handlers

In order to proccess the Events the EventPublisher needs to now the classes the EventHandlers are contained in. To tell the EventPublisher these informations you have to register the Handlers by using the register method in the HandlerRegistry class.

#!java

HandlerRegistry.register(MyEventHandlers.class);

Fireing Events

To Fire an Event simply call the fire method inside EventPublisher.

#!java

EventPublisher.fire(new MyOwnEvent());

keep on hacking!
