Currently events are handled very bad since everything is subscribed to everything (Project explorer to Model.DataItems.Added/Removed, Folder.DataItems.Added/Removed, etc.). As result it makes things very difficult to manage when objects are added / removed. Especially when these subsciption happen in external plugins (HABITAT, Verkenner...).
Better way to inform containers of the collections is to inform parent about changes (INotifyPropertyChanged) of the underlying object or let only container subscribe to collection contained in it.
In a few words:
Arrows show what object is subscribed to what.
Allowed Subscription of events
Anti-Pattern
In general the rule is: when you need to Subscribe / Unsubscribe frequently to events - you have to review your design of how event subscription is organized.
Consequences for DelftShell
- Refactor all subscription of events in ProjectExplorer, HABITAT, etc.
