A Generics and Lambda based Event framwork for Java.
While working on several other projects I wanted Event systems. I could have custom coded these event systems and that would have easily been a solution to my problem however this had been a reoccuring problem where I would have liked to be able to use a somewhat simple system as a base for events. Now for that problem there are already a few solutions but I did not want to modify my own classes to be an implementation of their Event or whatever as that is how most other systems I found implement an Event system. Its not a bad system and works well for most things but its far less flexable than something that can just accept any kind of object and use it as an event. This also allows Themis to use other objects that you might not have the ability to modify into a proper event in other systems without needing to needlessly wrap the object with another just to use a system.
TODO
honestly this topic mostly needs some experimentation and what users want or need.
- Remove all other dependencies (honestly decently easy but speed checks and see if its actually useful before I do so)
- Allow EventHandler methods from classes, again not really hard just have to wrap them in a lambda method which makes removing them a bit harder
- Allow multiple arguments, much harder but still doable though it could possibly have speed because of object arrays impacts so that needs to be investigated first
- large amounts of incode documentation to do though most of the code should be decently readable
- Automated testing
