* A CorkedEmitter is a variant of an EventEmitter where events emitted
|
|
* wait for the appearance of the first listener of any kind. That is,
|
|
* a CorkedEmitter will store all .emit()s it receives, to be replayed
|
|
* later when an .on() is applied.
|
|
* It is meant for situations where the consumers of the emitter are
|
|
* unable to register listeners right away, and cannot afford to miss
|
|
* any events emitted from the start.
|
|
* Note that, whenever the first emitter (for any event) appears,
|
|
* the emitter becomes uncorked and works as usual for ALL events, and
|
|
* will not cache anything anymore. This is necessary to avoid
|
|
* re-ordering emits - either everything is being buffered, or nothing.
