# Objective
Run this without this PR:
`cargo build -p bevy_hierarchy --no-default-features`
You'll get:
```
error[E0432]: unresolved import `bevy_reflect`

error: could not compile `bevy_hierarchy` (lib) due to 1 previous error
warning: build failed, waiting for other jobs to finish...
```
Because of this line:
```rs
use bevy_reflect::Reflect;
#[derive(Event, Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]
#[cfg_attr(feature = "reflect", derive(Reflect), reflect(Debug, PartialEq))]
pub enum HierarchyEvent { .. }
```
## Solution
use FQN: `derive(bevy_reflect::Reflect)`
## Testing
`cargo build -p bevy_hierarchy --no-default-features`
# Objective
Built-in observers & events should be `Reflect` so that components that
interact with them can be serialized in scenes. This is a similar pr to
#14259.
# Objective
Be consistent with `Resource`s and `Components` and have `Event` types
be more self-documenting.
Although not susceptible to accidentally using a function instead of a
value due to `Event`s only being initialized by their type, much of the
same reasoning for removing the blanket impl on `Resource` also applies
here.
* Not immediately obvious if a type is intended to be an event
* Prevent invisible conflicts if the same third-party or primitive types
are used as events
* Allows for further extensions (e.g. opt-in warning for missed events)
## Solution
Remove the blanket impl for the `Event` trait. Add a derive macro for
it.
---
## Changelog
- `Event` is no longer implemented for all applicable types. Add the
`#[derive(Event)]` macro for events.
## Migration Guide
* Add the `#[derive(Event)]` macro for events. Third-party types used as
events should be wrapped in a newtype.
# Objective
Align the hierarchy API between `EntityCommands` and `EntityMut`.
Added missing methods to `EntityMut`.
Replaced the duplicate `Command` implementations with the ones on `EntityMut` (e.g. The `AddChild` command is now just `world.entity_mut(..).add_child(..)`)
Fixed `update_old_parents` not sending `ChildAdded` events.
This PR does not add `add_children` to `EntityMut` as I would like to remove it from `EntityCommands` instead in #6942.
## Changelog
* Added `add_child`, `set_parent` and `remove_parent` to `EntityMut`
* Fixed missing `ChildAdded` events

## Objective
Implement absolute minimum viable product for the changes proposed in bevyengine/rfcs#53.
## Solution
- Remove public mutative access to `Parent` (Children is already publicly read-only). This includes public construction methods like `Copy`, `Clone`, and `Default`.
- Remove `PreviousParent`
- Remove `parent_update_system`
- Update all hierarchy related commands to immediately update both `Parent` and `Children` references.
## Remaining TODOs
- [ ] Update documentation for both `Parent` and `Children`. Discourage using `EntityCommands::remove`
- [x] Add `HierarchyEvent` to notify listeners of hierarchy updates. This is meant to replace listening on `PreviousParent`
## Followup
- These changes should be best moved to the hooks mentioned in #3742.
- Backing storage for both might be best moved to indexes mentioned in the same relations.
