Package io.microsphere.event

Class GenericEvent<S>

  • Type Parameters:
    S - the type of the event source
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable
    public class GenericEvent<S>
extends Event
    A generic implementation of the Event class that allows for type-safe event handling.

    This class extends the base Event class and provides a way to carry an arbitrary source object associated with the event. The source can be accessed in a type-safe manner using the getSource() method.

    Example Usage

     // Create a new GenericEvent with a String source
 GenericEvent event = new GenericEvent<>("Hello, World!");

 // Access the source with its original type
 String source = event.getSource(); // No casting needed

 // Get the timestamp when the event was created
 long timestamp = event.getTimestamp();
