Ahh sorry i see what you mean now. cool that doesn't mater you continue
dispatching and even adding events the way you are in the class itself but
as a user of the class you would never interact with it directly so in this
case if you had a new connection you wouldn't call directly
addEventListener but instead you would call EC.add when you want to
trigger an event.
in the back of the hood of the class it will call your built in
addEventLIstener but before doing it it categorizes it and lists it out so
its easier to sort through and monitor events.
that's really the big difference we aren't changing anything in the natural
way events work all we are doing is hijacking the flow to add features and
to monitor memory leaks.
so in your case if you are running a singleton you could do something like
this if you wanted:
public function LoginHandler()
{
EC.add(EventSingleton.dispatcher, "somethingHappen", doSomething,'mygroup');
}
and you wouldn't change anything in the dispatcher itself that can stay the
same.
