How handle events from a list of business object ?

Oct 7 2010 6:27 AM
Hi everyone,

I'm trying handle events from a list of business object.
Actually, i'm wondering if it's possible to write something like that: ObjectsList<>.Changed += new ChangedEventHandler(ListChanged);
to generic subscribe at  all "Changed" event produce by the items attached to the list "ObjectsList".

belows the csharp code where i have tried to implement the concept.

Thx in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Cedric

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;

namespace CollectionApplication
{

    // A delegate type for hooking up change notifications.
    public delegate void ChangedEventHandler(object sender, EventArgs e);

    class MyObject
    {
        // An event that clients can use to be notified whenever the elements is changed.
        public event ChangedEventHandler Changed;

        // Invoke the Changed event.
        protected virtual void OnChanged(EventArgs e)
        {
            if (Changed != null)
                Changed(this, e);
        }
        
        public MyObject(int myInt, string myString)
        {
            _myInt = myInt;
            _myString = myString;
            OnChanged(EventArgs.Empty);
        }

        private int _myInt;
        public int MyInt
        {
            get { return _myInt; }
            set { _myInt = value; OnChanged(EventArgs.Empty); }
        }

        private string _myString;
        public string MyString
        {
            get { return _myString; }
            set { _myString = value; OnChanged(EventArgs.Empty); ; }
        }
    }

    class MyCollection
    {
        public List<MyObject> ObjectsList = new List<MyObject>();

        public MyCollection()
        {
            // Add "eventChanged" to the Changed event on "List". 
            // ObjectsList<>.Changed += new ChangedEventHandler(ListChanged);

            ObjectsList.Add(new MyObject(1, "One"));
            ObjectsList.Add(new MyObject(2, "Two"));
            ObjectsList.Add(new MyObject(3, "Three"));

        }

        // This will be called whenever the list changes.
        private void ListChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("This is called when the event fires.");
        }

    }

}
