Glossary relative to handers:
- An event is said to be matched by a handler if posting it causes the callback to be invoked. In practice this is the case when the handler's operator returns true or [ value, ].
- An event is said to be handled by a handler if the event data is matched or if posting it causes the handler and/or other potential handlers to be detached. In practice this is the case when the handler's operator returns
"DETACH"or{DETACH: Ctx}.It is possible to test if a given event data is handled by at least one of the handlers attached to an Evt<T> by using theevt.isHandled(data)method.
