Hi JD,
your "problem" looks like a perfect example for the qooxdoo event system.
1st: I'm using qooxdoo 0.6.6, so there might be some differences to your 0.6.5
version of qooxdoo, but I think they are minor.
2nd: Do not take all the code below "without any change". I've just typed it
in my message; so no syntax check provided ;)
So here's my opinion:
You should "fire" a user data event in the inner widget:
------------------
if (somethingHappened) {
this.dispatchEvent(new qx.event.type.DataEvent("yoohooo", ["foo" ,"bar"]));
}
------------------
and then of cause implement the fitting event-listener in the "outer" widget:
------------------
this.addEventListener("yoohooo", function(e){
fooBarArray = e.getData();
/*...*/
}, this);
------------------
The name of the event I choose here is "yoohooo", but I hope you will find a
more fitting one ;)
The additional data (array) at the event dispatching is just added for fun, you
don't need it. But of cause you can use it to distinguish different "yoohooo"
events in the event-listener...
Hope it helps,
Peter
