» Description
Generic signal emitting class with the same API as GObject. Since GObject doesn't allow classes to define or emit own signals, this class provides a PHP implementation with the same API. GObject is the base class of all Gtk2 widgets provided by the PHP-Gtk2 extension. While the goal of the class might be the same as Event_Dispatcher, the API is much more common and understandable by PHP-Gtk2 developers. Since PEAR explicitely allows different solutions to the same problem, I think it is worth considering it as an own package. It also is different from Event_Dispatcher in the fact that you can pass arbritrary data to the callback methods instead having to use Notification objects.
