.NET events across the network

Removing IEvent requirement (breaking change)

The IEvent interface has been removed and you can now publish and subscribe to any poco class.

using System;
using Nvents;

namespace NventsSample
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      // subscribe to events
      Events.Subscribe<FooEvent>(
        e => Console.WriteLine(e.Bar));
      // publish events
      Events.Publish(new FooEvent { Bar = "FooBar" });
      Console.ReadLine();
    }
  }
  
  public class FooEvent // no longer inheriting from IEvent
  {
    public string Bar { get; set; }
  }
}

IPC (inter-process communication) support

Communication on the same machine (without the need for a TCP connection) is now supported via named pipes.

using System;
using Nvents;
using Nvents.Services;

namespace NventsSample
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      Events.Service = new NamedPipesService(); // can also name the pipe; new NamedPipesService(pipe: "pipe name")
      
      Events.Subscribe<FooEvent>(
        e => Console.WriteLine(e.Bar));
      Events.Publish(new FooEvent { Bar = "FooBar" });
      Console.ReadLine();
    }
  }
  
  public class FooEvent
  {
    public string Bar { get; set; }
  }
}

Another breaking change is that InProcessService has been renamed to InMemoryService.
