  If your bundle or package needs to provide compatibility with the previous way of using the dispatcher, you can use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\LegacyEventDispatcherProxy::decorate() to ease upgrades:

  Before:

  public function __construct(EventDispatcherInterface $eventDispatcher) {
      $this->eventDispatcher = $eventDispatcher;
  }

  After:
