Hi Javier,
This is because you've got things happening in the wrong order:
- You create your EventTry() object, which calls init()
- Init fires the event, but onEvent is still undefined
- Init then calls die()
- Die() deletes the EventTry object
- You then set onEvent to your function - after everything else has already
happened.
You need to set the onEvent object _before_ you fire the event to have
anything
meaningful happen.
I can't understand how your old classes would have worked, looking at this
code. Perhaps you're doing something slightly differently now?
Hope that helps,
Ian
