What happens when you declare methods event="onstuff" in a class and in
its subclass? I see they're both called, and I seem to remember I saw
something about this in the doc, but I can't find it again.
Is there anything set about the order in which the methods are called?
In my case, I'm trying to make a somewhat reuseable calendar class
(which uses event="ondate"), and extend it in my application. The
extended class would also use event="ondate", but I need variables that
are set in the superclass's ondate. Am I guaranteed that the
superclass's ondate will execute first, or should I find another way to
do it?
I tried to do it with generating a different event that said "hey, I'm
updated" in the superclass and catch it in my extended classes, but it
didn't work:
<class name="calendar">
<attribute name="date"/>
<method event="oninit">
this.del=new LzDelegate(this,"oncalupdate");
this.del.register(this,"calupdate");
</method>
<method event="ondate">
<!-- lots of stuff -->
this.calupdate.sendEvent();
</method>
</class>
<class name="extendedcal" extends="calendar">
<method event="oncalupdate">
Debug.write("Event: calupdate");
</method>
</class>
but I never got anything in the extendedcal instances, so I suppose
there's something I didn't understand in the way events+delegates work.
