Hi all,
Is there a built-in event system for IronRuby? I know I can handle events
with button.click { }, but what if I want to dispatch my own, custom events
(from a class I created myself?).
I wrote my own event system, but I would prefer to use a built-in dispatch
method if it exists.
Thanks!

I''m not sure I understand the scenario. Would you like to declare an
event on Ruby object that you want to hook from C# code? Like
rubyEngine.Operations.GetMember(obj, "my_event") += delegate { ...}?

Let''s say I create a class called MovieControls, that wraps some
existing
xaml. The xaml has several buttons, including a toggle play/pause button,
and a previous and next button.
MovieControls would listen to the click of the play/pause button, and would
dispatch a "play" event when they clicked it to play it, and
"pause" for the
opposite.
I want to be able to listen to MovieControls to know when to tell my video
to "play" and "pause".
So, it would be something like this... In MovieControls
play_pause_button.click { if (isPlayState) dispatch("play") else
dispatch("pause") end }
Then, in my app
myMovieControls.play { doPlay }
myMovieControls.pause { doPause }
Does that make more sense now? If this seems totally out of the blue, how
are people currently handling abstracting away this kind of functionality?
Thanks

It seems that both parts of the code are Ruby. So you should use Ruby language
features. It''s possible to emulate CLR events by a list of blocks.
event = []
# adding a handler:
handler = lambda { ... }
event << handler
# removing a handler:
event.delete handler
# firing an event:
event.each { |handler| handler[args] }

I actually use a customized version of Observable that includes the sender of the event. It''s that approach but a little bit more formalized. It''s in the IronNails framework http://github.com/casualjim/ironnails/tree/master/IronNails/vendor/iron_nails/lib/observable.rb That should look a lot like how events are implemented in C#. 2008/8/15 Sean Clark Hess <seanhess at gmail.com>> Cool... that''s pretty much what I did.

Awesome, thanks for the example Ivan. It''s good to see it done "correctly" ;P Actually, mine includes the sender of the event and an event object to, I just wasn''t paying attention to them in the handler example, but yours is definitely more formal.

Here is another way to do it: - In the XAML add commands to the appropriate buttons. You can use MediaCommands - Play, Pause, Stop, etc. - Have something like a ViewModel that holds the logic for what should happen when each command get executed. - Somehow add/attach/inject the view model to the view and create CommandBinding foreach of the supported commands. Add this command bindings to some visual element from the XAML, maybe the root. Regards, Stefan 2008/8/15 Sean Clark Hess <seanhess at gmail.com>> Awesome, thanks for the example Ivan.
