How to use runtime component's event handler?

Discuss
#1

Hello, I have imported a runtime.clock component,
I want to use its timer event but want to name is as other onAnimationEnd
@SimpleEvent
public void onAnimationEnd(AndroidViewComponent component) {
clock.Timer(){
d();
clock.TimerEnabled(false);
clock.TimerAlwaysFires(false);
EventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(this, “onAnimationEnd”, component);
}}
But it gives an error so can anyone help me

#2

you can only use this in @SimpleEvent

EventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(this, “onAnimationEnd”, component);

and call these methods in @SimpleFunction

clock.Timer(){
d();
clock.TimerEnabled(false);
clock.TimerAlwaysFires(false);

@SimpleEvent
public void onAnimationEnd(AndroidViewComponent component) {
clock.Timer();
EventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(this, “onAnimationEnd”, component);
}
public void clock.Timer() {
d();
clock.TimerEnabled(false);
clock.TimerAlwaysFires(false);
}

Like this @AryanGupta??

do something like this

@SimpleFunction
public void clock.Timer(AndroidViewComponent component) {
d();
clock.TimerEnabled(false);
clock.TimerAlwaysFires(false);
onAnimationEnd(component);
}

@SimpleEvent
public void onAnimationEnd(AndroidViewComponent component) {
EventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(this, “onAnimationEnd”, component);
}

I think you don’t want to use clock.Timer
you can use MyMethod instead of this

#7

whats that

#8

you can use anything but never use so.some

means do not use . in method name

basically i want an event should be displayed named onAnimationEnd and that should be triggered when the Timer event of Clock component fires

#10

i don’t much about extensions but use method name in this format MyMethodName instead of My.Method.Name

#11

ohh so suppose I want to use Clock Component’s Timer event, So will it be
public void ClockTimer()?

#12

broo, method name doesn’t matter in your case
