Of course if someone doesn't apply the pattern correctly it won't work. This is true for all patterns. There is nothing inherently dangerous about this one. I don't know why people have negative opinions about something simple that makes code readable. Maybe it is a bias against coffeescript in general. I am still of the strong opinion that the blog linked in the OP should be edited to remove the claim that coffeescript can't implement the pattern. I defy anyone to show me some javascript code for that pattern that I can't convert to coffeescript with the only algorithm change being to add a start call at the bottom. That call does not negate any advantages of the blog's pattern. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
