Subject: Event Handling

Hi,

I am coming from the Java world and was wondering if there ins anything
in Ruby similar to Java's event processing?  For  example I have a
particular Object that can fire off an event to all objects that listen
for that event.  A more real world example would be that I have a
delete() method that was called and I want to let all interested
parties know that the delete() method was called.

In the Java space I would setup an event listener.  When the delete()
method would be called I wouold send an event to all my registered
listeners.

I hope I was clear enough.


Thanks in advance, Scott.
