Description:
Background:
The Dojo Toolkit, for which this module is intended, features a versatile
topic-based event publishing and subscription framework, that allows
widgets throughout the application to receive notifications of various
events and associated data.
However, as of version 1.5.0, the Dojo Toolkit lacks a utility to also
allow retrieval of previously published event data, preventing the event
system from being used to store data for the application model.
Such a capability is useful for UI components that are created by their
parent components upon notification of (and obviously after) a particular
event, but that still periodically require the latest data on that or
other event topic(s) throughout their lifecycle.
Overview and purpose:
This is a storage layer add-on module for the Dojo Toolkit event system.
It can be 'require'd via the Dojo module loading system, and be used for
the retrieval of previously-published topic-based event data, making it
possible for application components to access event data that either could
not be received, or was not needed, at the time it was originally
published.
