phpbb\event\dispatcher

class dispatcher extends ContainerAwareEventDispatcher implements dispatcher_interface

Extension of the Symfony2 EventDispatcher

It provides an additional trigger_event method, which gives some syntactic sugar for dispatching events. Instead of creating the event object, the method will do that for you.

Example:

$vars = array('page_title');
extract($phpbb_dispatcher->trigger_event('core.index', compact($vars)));

Methods

mixed trigger_event(string $eventName, array $data = array())

Construct and dispatch an event
dispatch($eventName, Event $event = null)

{@inheritdoc}
disable()

Disable the event dispatcher.
enable()
