When using an outside actionscript object (in this example a
SharedObject) I'm getting some odd results when I try to attach
handlers to events on the object.
If I use the code:
<event name="onSync"/>
<handler name="oninit">
var t = this;
this._so.onSync = function(evtObj) {
t._onStatus(evtObj);
};
</handler>
and in the attaching class:
this._onSyncDel = new LzDelegate(this, "syncHandler", this._so, "onSync");
everything works fine and this._so.onSync = an LzEvent object. If,
however, I use this:
<event name="onSync"/>
<handler name="oninit">
this._so.onSync = this._onStatus;
</handler>
and
the same in the attaching class this._so.onSync = a Function object
pointing to the evet exposings _onStatus method. Then if I change the
code to:
<event name="onSync"/>
<handler name="oninit">
this._onSyncDel = new LzDelegate(this, "_onStatus", this._so, "onSync");
</handler>
The event simply doesn't fire. While it took me awhile to figure out
the fix I demonstrated in the first example, shouldn't at least the
first two function the same? It appears calling this._so.onSync =
this._onStatus is actually overwriting this.onSync instead of
this._so.onSync, any ideas?
