[flexcoders] CairngormEvent - Place to put the static variable that stores the name of the event

2008-02-25 Thread Fernando Ghisi
Where is the best place to put the static variable that stores the
name of an event, in the class of this event (extends CairngormEvent)
or in the class that extends FrontController and consumes this event?
There are many examples with both ways...

Don't know about best, but I always put it in the event class itself.  
I like that is results in the call to AddCommand having both the event 
class and the command class explicitly referenced as shown below.


addCommand(GetSomeDataEvent.GET_SOME_DATA_EVENT, GetSomeDataCommand);

Think MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, Event.CHANGE, Event.RESIZE, 
FlexEvent.INITIALIZE, etc.. 

and there you have your answer :-)

I like this approaching too but, as a begginer with Cairngorm, when I see
the basic examples (like
http://www.cairngormdocs.org/tools/CairngormDiagramExplorer.html) putting
this in the FrontController, I stay in doubt about if there is a pattern or
a best way to do this.

I always put the event name into the class - cairngorm event, or any event. I 
don't know why anyone wouldn't. This way around you can't have mismatched event 
class names (well not easily) and you have only one place to go to maintain 
your event.
