Handling Events#

You can subscribe for events to track any changes made to any property and perform certain actions. The signature of the handler function must be as follows:

Source code (C#)

void handler_function_name(Property property);

Here is an example of tracking property removal via events:

Source code (C#)

public void property_removed(Property property)
		{
			Log.Message("Property \"{0}\" was removed.\n", property.Name);
		}

		// somewhere in the code

		// inherit a new property named "new_property_1" from the base property "surface_base"
		Properties.FindManualProperty("surface_base").Inherit("new_property_1");

		// subscribing for property removal event
		Properties.EventRemoved.Connect(property_removed);

		// remove the property named "new_property_1"
		Properties.RemoveProperty(Properties.FindProperty("new_property_1").GUID);

Event<Property> EventRemoved#

The event triggered when a property is removed. You can subscribe to events via Connect() and unsubscribe via Disconnect(). You can also use EventConnection and EventConnections classes for convenience (see examples below).

Notice

For more details see the Event Handling article.

The event handler signature is as follows: myhandler(Property property)
