Returns an array listing the events for which the emitter has registered listeners. The values in the array are strings.
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
CsoundObj.listenerCount() ⇒ number
Returns the number of listeners listening to the event named eventName.
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
CsoundObj.listeners(eventName) ⇒ Array.<function()>
Returns a copy of the array of listeners for the event named eventName.
Kind: static method of CsoundObj

|---|---|
| eventName | PublicEvents |
CsoundObj.off(eventName, listener) ⇒ external:EventEmitter
Alias for removeListener()
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
| Param | Type |
|---|---|
| eventName | PublicEvents |
| listener | function |
CsoundObj.on(eventName, listener) ⇒ external:EventEmitter
Adds the listener function to the end of the listeners array for the event named eventName. No checks are made to see if the listener has already been added. Multiple calls passing the same combination of eventName and listener will result in the listener being added, and called, multiple times.
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
| Param | Type |
|---|---|
| eventName | PublicEvents |

CsoundObj.addListener(eventName, listener) ⇒ external:EventEmitter
Alias for "on"
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
| Param | Type |
|---|---|

CsoundObj.once(eventName, listener) ⇒ external:EventEmitter
Adds a one-time listener function for the event named eventName. The next time eventName is triggered, this listener is removed and then invoked.
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
| Param | Type |
|---|---|
| eventName | PublicEvents |
| listener | function |
CsoundObj.removeAllListeners(eventName) ⇒ external:EventEmitter
Removes all listeners, or those of the specified eventName. It is bad practice to remove listeners added elsewhere in the code, particularly when the EventEmitter instance was created by some other component or module. Returns a reference to the EventEmitter, so that calls can be chained.
Kind: static method of CsoundObj
| Param | Type |
|---|---|
| eventName | PublicEvents |
CsoundObj.removeListener(eventName, listener) ⇒ external:EventEmitter
Removes the specified listener from the listener array for the event named eventName. removeListener() will remove, at most, one instance of a listener from the listener array. If any single listener has been added multiple times to the listener array for the specified eventName, then removeListener() must be called multiple times to remove each instance. Removes the specified listener from the listener array for the event named eventName.
