+v9.4.0
+Removes all listeners, or those of the specified eventName.
It is bad practice to remove listeners added elsewhere in the code,

+removeListener() will remove, at most, one instance of a listener from the
+listener array. If any single listener has been added multiple times to the
+listener array for the specified eventName, then removeListener() must be
+called multiple times to remove each instance.
Once an event is emitted, all listeners attached to it at the
+time of emitting are called in order. This implies that anyremoveListener() or removeAllListeners() calls after emitting and before the last listener finishes execution
+will not remove them fromemit() in progress. Subsequent events behave as expected.
import { EventEmitter } from 'node:events';
class MyEmitter extends EventEmitter {}
const myEmitter = new MyEmitter();
const callbackA = () => {
console.log('A');
myEmitter.removeListener('event', callbackB);
};
const callbackB = () => {
console.log('B');
};
myEmitter.on('event', callbackA);
myEmitter.on('event', callbackB);
// callbackA removes listener callbackB but it will still be called.
// Internal listener array at time of emit [callbackA, callbackB]
myEmitter.emit('event');
// Prints:
// A
// B
// callbackB is now removed.
// Internal listener array [callbackA]
myEmitter.emit('event');
// Prints:
// A
+Because listeners are managed using an internal array, calling this will
+change the position indices of any listener registered after the listener
+being removed. This will not impact the order in which listeners are called,
+but it means that any copies of the listener array as returned by
+the emitter.listeners() method will need to be recreated.
When a single function has been added as a handler multiple times for a single
+event (as in the example below), removeListener() will remove the most
+recently added instance. In the example the once('ping')listener is removed:
import { EventEmitter } from 'node:events';
const ee = new EventEmitter();
function pong() {
console.log('pong');
}
ee.on('ping', pong);
ee.once('ping', pong);
ee.removeListener('ping', pong);
ee.emit('ping');
ee.emit('ping');
+Returns a reference to the EventEmitter, so that calls can be chained.
Rest ...args: any[]v0.1.26
+By default EventEmitters will print a warning if more than 10 listeners are
+added for a particular event. This is a useful default that helps finding
+memory leaks. The emitter.setMaxListeners() method allows the limit to be
+modified for this specific EventEmitter instance. The value can be set toInfinity (or 0) to indicate an unlimited number of listeners.
Returns a reference to the EventEmitter, so that calls can be chained.
