Hello, I've been working on some custom classes (objects) and I've read through the Properties section of the manual several time, searched the list and Google-- and I'm not seeing anything about handling the READ aspect of a property. Both in the sense of creating a READ-ONLY property, and in the sense of creating a property that has a READ side-effect (ie., something that happens just because the property was read).
Could one of you helpful and knowledgeable folks tell me about the READ aspects of properties? How can I create a property that, for instance, increments by one, every time it is read? Similarly, how can I create a property that can be read but not written? I know I could probably write a custom writer and block [ignore] the data, but part of the general concept and methodology of the property system is to have a lot of that happen "auto-magically" under-the-hood so that all I should have to do is declare the property "READ-ONLY" or some such and then it becomes protected, and perhaps only permits an internal writer (setter). Thanks for any assistance you can provide! Qooxdoo is a terrific platform and well worth investing time in!! Thank you VERY MUCH for all your hard work and efforts. I'm sure I'm not alone in appreciating it!
