If you are wanting to do something like the sample code on the link that you
provided, it's a simple publisher/subscriber pattern and qooxdoo handles
that with the message bus. Take a look at qx.event.message.Bus.dispatch and
qx.event.message.Bus.subscribe and you will find what you need. I use this
class for doing status updates when I send requests to the server. I could
have a few requests going at one time and I use the message bus to know when
they are all done. I call a message when the request starts, one once I get
the data and another when all processing is complete.
If you need more information just let me know.
