Custom Event Implementation

[walterjwhite]

Hi all,

I want to store all events fired automatically so I can log various things.  I was thinking about implementing my own Event dispatcher, but extending the Weld one will be a bit tricky.

Should I extend the Weld EventImpl implementation, well can I, and is that a bad idea?  Secondly, if I simply want to save events, wouldn't a decorator work well here?

I want this to be transparent as possible, if I use a decorator, I think I'd end up annotating injection points and that doesn't save me from writing any code.

Perpaps you could write a extension that looks at the observers and registers a catch-all-events bean?

I like that idea - Actually, I was thinking earlier that I don't want to log every event; however, if I am catching all events, I can decide at that point in time how I want to handle it.

I think that will work perfectly, I like it.
