FlxSignal

[Samuel Batista]

HaxeFlixel has a new utility class, FlxSignal.

Here's how you use it:

// pass true if you want signal to persist across state changes.
var mySignal= FlxSignal.get(false);


// register to mySignal
mySignal.add(signalCallback);


// dispatch a signal
mySignal.dispatch("Hello World");


// signal callbacks are of type FlxSignal->Void
function signalCallback(signal:FlxSignal)
{
 // data passed into dispatch is stored in signal.userData
 trace(signal.userData);
}


// don't forget to destroy the signal when your object is destroyed:
mySignal.destroy();

PS: Currently only available in the development version. Click here to learn how install development version.

Maybe you can add the basic description to the class itself? I think Gama11 uses "Example Usage:" headline for that...
Also, I bet you can find a way to make it more user friendly, like, the answer to: "What would the average user may use it for on his game?" and write that as the intro for the class...

In the future yes. For now it's there to be used.
