Hi all,
I'm trying to implement a somewhat generic way for my controller
objects to listen for changes to various properties of my model
objects. I'm not a javascript expert, so there is quite possibly a
Better Way™ of solving the bigger problem - I'm open to pointers in
that direction, if my current approach is not a good idea.
Here's the machinery I currently have in place:
MyClass.prototype.observeValueChange = function(observer, property,
callback) {
if (this.observableChanges == null) this.observableChanges = new
Hash();
if (this.observableChanges.get(property) == null)
this.observableChanges.set(property, new Hash());
this.observableChanges.get(property).set(observer, callback);
}
MyClass.prototype.fireValueChanged = function(property) {
if (this.observableChanges == null) return;
var observerInfo = this.observableChanges.get(property);
if (observerInfo == null) return;
observerInfo.each(function(info) {
info.key.info.value(this));
});
}
Here's an example of registering to listen:
objectOfMyObservableClass.observeValueChange(this, 'foo', function
(destination) {
alert("observed change in foo");
});
objectOfMyObservableClass.fireValueChanged("foo");
Tracing through the code, everything appears fine up to the point
where I try to call the stored callback. This line:
info.key.info.value(this));
info.key and info.value are both valid objects, but nothing happens.
Thanks in advance!
