2013 NEWS 2013-01-26 - New isMet Instance Method in Uize.Class
The new isMet instance method, implemented in the Uize.Class base class module, returns a boolean, indicating whether or not the specified condition is met.
DIFFERENT USAGES
Test if a State Property is Truthy or Falsy
isMetBOOL = myInstance.isMet (propertyConditionSTR);
Test if Multiple State Properties Are Truthy or Falsy
isMetBOOL = myInstance.isMet (propertiesConditionARRAYorSTR);
Test if a Compound Condition is Met
isMetBOOL = myInstance.isMet (compoundConditionSTRorFUNC);
1. Test if a State Property is Truthy or Falsy
In its most basic usage, the isMet method can be used to test if a single state property becomes truthy or falsy.
SYNTAX
isMetBOOL = myInstance.isMet (propertyConditionSTR);
2. Test if Multiple State Properties Are Truthy or Falsy
One can test if all properties in a set of state properties are truthy or falsy, by specifying the state properties as an array of property names or as a comma-separated list string.
SYNTAX
isMetBOOL = myInstance.isMet (propertiesConditionARRAYorSTR);
3. Test if a Compound Condition is Met
One can test if a compound condition has been met, by specifying the compound condition in the form of a condition function or condition expression string.
SYNTAX
isMetBOOL = myInstance.isMet (compoundConditionSTRorFUNC);
4. Specifying Conditions
When using the isMet method, conditions are specified in exactly the same as with the once method.
Rather than redundantly providing comprehensive examples for the different usages of the isMet method and the different ways in which conditions can be specified, instead please consult the reference for the once method. While the once method lets you register a handler function that should be executed once a condition is met, the isMet method simply tests if a condition is met and returns a boolean result.
