# forTarget method Null safety

Stream<T> forTarget (

1. EventTarget? e,
2. {bool useCapture: false}

)

Gets a Stream for this event type, on the specified target.

This will always return a broadcast stream so multiple listeners can be used simultaneously.

This may be used to capture DOM events:

    Element.keyDownEvent.forTarget(element, useCapture: true).listen(...);

    // Alternate method:
    Element.keyDownEvent.forTarget(element).capture(...);

Or for listening to an event which will bubble through the DOM tree:

    MediaElement.pauseEvent.forTarget(document.body).listen(...);

See also:

- EventTarget.addEventListener from MDN.

## Implementation

    Stream<T> forTarget(EventTarget? e, {bool useCapture: false}) =>
        new _EventStream<T>(e, _eventType, useCapture);
