+This works similar to the built-in interfaces //dataNotifier// and //dataNotificationReceiver//.\\
+However the **ObjectChanged** method receives two parameters: an **Object** from the notifier and any **info** from the original subscriber.\\
+The **notifier** may send himself by setting "me" as Object, or he sends simply the current data which have been changed.\\
+The **subscriber** stores any sort of (static) information together with the callback-address when subscribing by //addObjectNotificationReceiver//.\\
+This info may be a simple index number, but it can also be a whole object (means a reference to an object) so that the receiver can distinguish which subscription called him.
+The **//ObjectNotifierBox//** contains the complete implementation of the //objectNotifier// interface.\\
+Simply instantiate this class and call their members like:
+Declare:
+  private property onb as ObjectNotifierBox
+in //Constructor// Method:
+  onb = new ObjectNotifierBox
+Actual implementation of the //objectNotifier// Interface:
+  Sub addObjectNotificationReceiver(receiver as objectNotificationReceiver, optional info as Variant = nil)
+     onb.addReceiver(receiver, info)
+  End Sub
+  Sub removeObjectNotificationReceiver(receiver As objectNotificationReceiver)
+     onb.removeReceiver(receiver)
+  End Sub
+For calling all subscribed receivers write somewhere in your class:
+  onb.callReceivers(me)
+Instead of "me" you may send any object you need, of course...
+<WRAP round important 100%>
+Be careful with //removing// if you have multiple subscriptions from the same object (perhaps with different //info//).\\
+<code>
+xy.addObjectNotificationReceiver(me, 1)
+xy.addObjectNotificationReceiver(me, 2)
+</code>
+Because //removeObjectNotificationReceiver// obtains no //info// parameter, it cancels only the first object found in the array, thus acting as //fifo//.\\
+It's therefore not possible to delete only the second entry (with //info// 2).
