Practical use of interface events [closed]

Answer 1

I used events to signal when a serial port received data.

Here is my interface.

public interface ISerialPortWatcher
{
    event EventHandler ReceivedData;
    event EventHandler StartedListening;
    event EventHandler StoppedListening;

    SerialPortSettings PortOptions { set; }

    bool Listening { get; set; }
    void Stop();
    void Start();
}

public class ReceivedDataEventArgs : EventArgs
{
    public ReceivedDataEventArgs(string data)
    {
        Data = data;
    }
    public string Data { get; private set; }
}
