Declare a signal

This example declares a signal 'sig' that takes three arguments and returns a char.

Simple::Signal<char (float, int, std::string)> sig;

Connect to a signal

This exampple connects 'sig' to a static function. It is also possible to connect to member functions or lambda functions.

static char float_callback (float f, int, std::string) {
  // ...
  return 0;
}

void Init() {
  sig.connect(float_callback);
}

Fire a signal

void func() {
  // ...
  sig.emit(1.0f, 7, "xxxx");
}
