Interface IParentAwareComponent

Optional interface for components that are attached to something via a components field.

Namespace: GoRogue.Components.ParentAware
Assembly: GoRogue.dll
Syntax
public interface IParentAwareComponent
Remarks

While the implementation of this interface is not required for GoRogue components, when it is used with something implementing IObjectWithComponents, the Parent field is automatically updated when you add or remove this component from a component collection. A component implementing this interface cannot be added to multiple objects at the same time.
