HOW TO USE

The goal of events4js is give the possibility of produce events from any object.

Create an EventProducer :

var MyClass = (function () { var e4js = require('events4js');

Some_Event_Producer = function () {
    this.initialize();
}
var p = Some_Event_Producer.prototype = new e4js.EventProducer();
p.initialize_event = p.initialize;

p.initialize = function () {
    this.initialize_event();
}
return Some_Event_Producer;

})();

Some tricks : => autoLaunch The autolaunch is a way to fire an event after another. For example fire "end" after "success" or "error" Just give some config to the initialize_envent method :

this.initialize_event({ autoLaunch: { 'end': ['success', 'error'] } });

=> waitFor The wait for allow to fire an event after a list of events fire. For example fire "tree" if "one" and "two" have been fire. Just give some config to the initialize_envent method :

this.initialize_event({ waitFor: { 'tree': ['two', 'one'], 'l': ['m', 'n'] } });
