Delay
Description
An opaque awaitable type, specifically used in coroutines, representing an event owned by a specific object, that can be 'awaited', or listened to.
Event e = current.event(“OnEntry”);
await e;
await e; // awaiting the same Event object a second time will await the event a second time.
// The listening is initiated when the await statement executes, not when
// the event object is created. In other words, an instance of an Event object is
// a reference to an object’s event that may fire multiple times, not a single
// execution of an object’s event.
await current.event(“OnExit”);
await Event.evaluation(current.labels[“MyCode”]);
Event evaluationEvent = Event.evaluation(current.labels[“MyCode”]);
while (true) {
await evaluationEvent;
…
}
An event represents a generic reference to a specific object's OnEntry, OnExit, etc., event. It is not a reference to a single execution of an object's event. This means you can await the same Event multiple times, and each await may be resumed on different executions of the object's event. In other words, the listening mechanism is initiated when the await statement executes, not when the Event object is created.
