        return false;
    }
    if ($handler === null) {
        unset(self::$_events[$name][$class]);
        unset(self::$_eventWildcards[$name][$class]);
        return true;

        }
    }
    // wildcard event names

            if (empty(self::$_eventWildcards[$name][$class])) {
                unset(self::$_eventWildcards[$name][$class]);
                if (empty(self::$_eventWildcards[$name])) {
                    unset(self::$_eventWildcards[$name]);
                }

offAll() public static method (available since version 2.0.10)

Defined in: yii\base\Event::offAll()

Detaches all registered class-level event handlers.

See also:

public static void offAll ( )

                public static function offAll()
{
    self::$_events = [];
    self::$_eventWildcards = [];
}

            
on() public static method

Defined in: yii\base\Event::on()

Attaches an event handler to a class-level event.

When a class-level event is triggered, event handlers attached to that class and all parent classes will be invoked.

For example, the following code attaches an event handler to ActiveRecord's afterInsert event:

Event::on(ActiveRecord::class, ActiveRecord::EVENT_AFTER_INSERT, function ($event) {
    Yii::trace(get_class($event->sender) . ' is inserted.');
});

The handler will be invoked for EVERY successful ActiveRecord insertion.

Since 2.0.14 you can specify either class name or event name as a wildcard pattern:

Event::on('app\models\db\*', '*Insert', function ($event) {
    Yii::trace(get_class($event->sender) . ' is inserted.');
});

For more details about how to declare an event handler, please refer to yii\base\Component::on().

See also off().

$class string

The fully qualified class name to which the event handler needs to attach.

$name string

The event name.

$handler callable

The event handler.

$data mixed

The data to be passed to the event handler when the event is triggered. When the event handler is invoked, this data can be accessed via yii\base\Event::$data.

$append boolean

Whether to append new event handler to the end of the existing handler list. If false, the new handler will be inserted at the beginning of the existing handler list.

                public static function on($class, $name, $handler, $data = null, $append = true)
{
    $class = ltrim($class, '\\');
    if (strpos($class, '*') !== false || strpos($name, '*') !== false) {
        if ($append || empty(self::$_eventWildcards[$name][$class])) {
            self::$_eventWildcards[$name][$class][] = [$handler, $data];
        } else {
            array_unshift(self::$_eventWildcards[$name][$class], [$handler, $data]);
        }
        return;
    }
    if ($append || empty(self::$_events[$name][$class])) {
        self::$_events[$name][$class][] = [$handler, $data];
    } else {
        array_unshift(self::$_events[$name][$class], [$handler, $data]);
    }
}

    }
    if (empty(self::$_events[$name]) && empty($wildcardEventHandlers)) {
        return;
    }
    if ($event === null) {
        $event = new static();
    }
    $event->handled = false;
    $event->name = $name;
