Build Status

EventBus in 3 steps

  1. Define events:

public class MessageEvent { /* Additional fields if needed */ }


2. Prepare subscribers:
    Register your subscriber (in your onCreate or in a constructor):  

   ```java
eventBus.register(this);
Declare your subscribing method:  

```java

@Subscribe
public void onEvent(AnyEventType event) {/* Do something */};


3. Post events:

   ```java
eventBus.post(event);

This getting started guide shows these 3 steps in more detail.
