Edmund vs AOP

I'm looking into Edmund and started wondering how it compares to AOP as far as the problems each can solve. Taking a simple example like logging, if you wanted to log a certain event, with Edmund your logger would subscribe to an event and once the event was dispatched the logger would be notified and run whatever logging code is specified.... more » By Thomas Messier  - Apr 20 - 6 new of 6 messages

Adding an event queue?

Currently, listeners in Edmund are either synchronous or asynchronous. A synchronous listener is executed "immediately" when an event is dispatched (well, as soon as Edmund hits it in the list of subscribers for that event) and control returns to Edmund when the listener is finished. An asynchronous listener is also executed "immediately" but... more » By Sean Corfield  - Oct 1 2009 - 7 new of 7 messages

	Edmund and LDAP
	Would using Edmund to keep two parts of LDAP in sync make sense? I have roles in LDAP and sometimes the employee in that role no longer works here (I check that by looking elsewhere in LDAP) So could Edmund handle the thread that deletes that employee from that role? (actually I need to get all employees in that role and recreate... more » By markireland  - Jul 28 2009 - 2 new of 2 messages

	Can anyone help me get my head around this use case?
	Ok..so I started playing with Edmund on Monday night! My Deal: I have a custom "factory" object which gets loaded up by coldspring for each of my applications.... The factory creates/gets abstract services for ORM objects. Actually, it's quite similar to approaches taken in Metro (metro.riaforge.org),... more » By Adam  - Feb 24 2009 - 2 new of 2 messages

	Theory Question - abstracting the model with Edmund
	Is it a goal of event driven programming to "hide" the model from application controllers? Give controllers the chance to use an abstraction of the model, but not the model itself? Meaning all actors (html/Flex controllers) just ask Edmund to "do" things instead of exposing the real API methods of the application?... more » By johnfallen  - Feb 21 2009 - 11 new of 11 messages

Welcome new project member: Patrick Santora

I'd like to extend a warm welcome to Patrick Santora who has been working with Edmund and has been offering patches for a while. Patrick is now officially a project member and contributor for Edmund (and my other mini-projects such as Closures and Concurrency etc, should he wish). Patrick has been working on Railo support for Edmund as well as... more » By seancorfield  - Jan 26 2009 - 8 new of 8 messages

Clarifications on how Edmund operates

I was wondering if somebody could shed light on exactly how Edmund is supposed to be used. I'll clarify my understanding of event-driven and how I've seen it implemented first to give some background as to my doubts. I'm more familiar with an Observer type pattern, where you can extend an Observable class that has methods like addEvent(), fireEvent... more » By Thomas Messier  - Nov 22 2008 - 5 new of 5 messages

	log it and email me
	If I want to use Edmund to not only log stuff but email me as well where would I add the cfmail tags? Thanks By markireland  - Jun 27 2008 - 1 new of 1 message

	jumping the gun

	Edmund Philosophy
	I'm finishing off Fusebox 5.5 right now and will be turning my attention to Edmund starting next week (there is already some experimental code in SVN, under my org-corfield-cfmx project). In the mean time, I wanted to give you a little more background on my thinking. What is quoted below is a response I made to discussions on the... more » By Sean Corfield  - Nov 30 2007 - 1 new of 1 message
