on<T> method
Listens for events of Type T
and its subtypes.
The method is called like this: myEventBus.on
If the method is called without a type parameter, the Stream contains every
event of this EventBus
.
The returned Stream is a broadcast stream so multiple subscriptions are allowed.
Each listener is handled independently, and if they pause, only the pausing listener is affected. A paused listener will buffer events internally until unpaused or canceled. So it's usually better to just cancel and later subscribe again (avoids memory leak).
Implementation
Stream<T> on<T>() {
if (T == dynamic) {
return streamController.stream as Stream<T>;
} else {
return streamController.stream.where((event) => event is T).cast<T>();
}
}
