You can use null check

RecycleBinChanged?.Invoke(null, null);

Changed inside the function that handles the event raising. But would you rather have the event raised directly without any method maybe?

Yes. There's no need for additional method to raise this event

We actuallty do need it to raise the event outside of the class. We need to raise it from RestoreItemsFromTrashAsync and DeleteItemsAsync from FilesystemHelpers.cs.

@d2dyno1 Should I do something to indeed remove the need of the method entirely or should it stay that way?

Removing it would means to move methods from the FileSystemHelpers to the RecycleBinHelpers, albeit it wouldn't be their optimal locations.

I think moving it would make sense (?). In addition, it should be moved to instantiable helper (because it exposes an event) but that'd be part of a bigger refactor out of scope for this PR.

I think that moving it is better and good

Not sure how to actually implement this. I have been turning the issue in my head for the past few days, but I cannot find a solution that feels actually clean for it. Consider this message as a formal request for help.

After giving it some thoughts, the methods from FilesystemHelpers.cs should not be moved. They are in their right places, they are not only linked to the recycle bin.

A possibility would to raise events in FilesystemHelpers.cs when Delete or Restore are called, and have methods to update the recycle bin icon subscribe to them. But then, an issue comes from the RecycleBinHelpers.EmptyRecycleBin() method that does not use the Delete method to clear the recycle bin.

I must be missing something obvious, and I'd like to see this PR through.

After discussions with Yair on Discord, I'm closing this PR for now. Waiting for the big refactoring coming up soon, which should solve the event issue.
