Like now. :) yeah - i know. but let's add to it now... :) > At the moment we just overwrite obj (as you may know) and send a > "native" event. The problem I have with src is that I feel like it's > exposing internals of widgets for no apparent benefit. Having src feels > useful to me as well, but I don't have a usecase in mind. you can't otherwise know where the event really originated. you only know you got it. if it propagated... there would be cases you want to know - if you are the original src of the event or just got a propagation - otherwise it could be handled multiple times like if (event->src != event->obj) // propagated event > In cases where it's really needed, src could be added to the event info. i think that's really too special/manual. i think it likely should be a core feature. right now we have event forwarders ... and here src would need to change. currently that's gore. i think we should also add propagation to parent too like evas already does. that would necessitate this feature in core. we currently dont have a propagate flag. in fact you likely want to propagate some events and not others. anyway - i remember int he past doing code and going "shit. i dont know where the event came from. i can't fix this simply. i have to do some weird stuff instead". i remember making a mental note to fix this in future. :) i'm now voicing that note. :) > -- > Tom. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager > Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of > your business applications.
