AddChangeListener(EventHandler<CollectionChangedEventArgs>)

Adds a change listener for the changes that occur in this collection. Signatures are the same as += style event handlers. The callback will be invoked on a thread pool thread.

AddChangeListener(TaskScheduler, EventHandler<CollectionChangedEventArgs>)

Adds a change listener for the changes that occur in this collection.

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Threading.Tasks.TaskScheduler	scheduler	The scheduler to use when firing the change handler
