schedule (queue, target, method, arguments*) *
public
Adds the passed target/method and any optional arguments to the named queue to be executed at the end of the RunLoop. If you have not already started a RunLoop when calling this method one will be started for you automatically.
At the end of a RunLoop, any methods scheduled in this way will be invoked. Methods will be invoked in an order matching the named queues defined in the run.queues
property.
run.schedule('sync', this, function() { // this will be executed in the first RunLoop queue, when bindings are synced console.log('scheduled on sync queue'); }); run.schedule('actions', this, function() { // this will be executed in the 'actions' queue, after bindings have synced. console.log('scheduled on actions queue'); }); // Note the functions will be run in order based on the run queues order. // Output would be: // scheduled on sync queue // scheduled on actions queue
