Signal group. about wink-signals

Could you give an example of usage? Or how this could be used for an application.

[Wolftein]

An example would be:

#define NORMAL 0
#define HIGHEST 2
#define HIGH 1

EventManager.addSignal<void (Event&>("MyEvent", &Function1, NORMAL);
EventManager.addSignal<void (Event&>("MyEvent", &Function2, HIGHEST);
EventManager.addSignal<void (Event&>("MyEvent", &Function3, HIGH);
EventManager.execute("MyEvent", &EventStructure);

Function1, Function3 and Function2 is executed in that order. The example is for a game that use delegates to make an event system.

Function1
(
setEventCancelled(canMove());
)

Funcion3
(
if( isCancelled() )
return
TriggerACustomMovementEvent()
)

Function2
(
if( !isCancelled() )
return;
updateTiles()
)

One thing I'd like to mention, a signal can have multiple "slots"* (a.k.a. functions) connected to it. Are you sure you're referring to a signal? All a signal really is a wrapper for a vector of slots.

Also, I don't really have time to implement any of this anytime soon (I'm quite busy with other projects ATM). Perhaps you could do it and make a fork. If you do try to keep the same naming conventions.

*std::function, and my custom slots work with signals. Just thought I'd mention it, if I didn't in the README, as I haven't updated this library in months.
