// summary:
// `dojo.connect` is the core event handling and delegation method in
// Dojo. It allows one function to "listen in" on the execution of
// any other, triggering the second whenever the first is called. Many
// listeners may be attached to a function, and source functions may
// be either regular function calls or DOM events.
//
// description:
// Connects listeners to actions, so that after event fires, a
// listener is called with the same arguments passed to the original
// function.
//
// Since `dojo.connect` allows the source of events to be either a
// "regular" JavaScript function or a DOM event, it provides a uniform
// interface for listening to all the types of events that an
// application is likely to deal with though a single, unified
// interface. DOM programmers may want to think of it as
// "addEventListener for everything and anything".
//
// When setting up a connection, the `event` parameter must be a
// string that is the name of the method/event to be listened for. If
// `obj` is null, `dojo.global` is assumed, meaning that connections
// to global methods are supported but also that you may inadvertently
// connect to a global by passing an incorrect object name or invalid
// reference.
//
// `dojo.connect` generally is forgiving. If you pass the name of a
// function or method that does not yet exist on `obj`, connect will
// not fail, but will instead set up a stub method. Similarly, null
// arguments may simply be omitted such that fewer than 4 arguments
// may be required to set up a connection See the examples for details.
//
// The return value is a handle that is needed to
// remove this connection with `dojo.disconnect`.
//
// obj:
// The source object for the event function.
// Defaults to `dojo.global` if null.
// If obj is a DOM node, the connection is delegated
// to the DOM event manager (unless dontFix is true).
//
// event:
// String name of the event function in obj.
// I.e. identifies a property `obj[event]`.
//
// context:
// The object that method will receive as "this".
//
// If context is null and method is a function, then method
// inherits the context of event.
//
// If method is a string then context must be the source
// object object for method (context[method]). If context is null,
// dojo.global is used.
//
// method:
// A function reference, or name of a function in context.
// The function identified by method fires after event does.
// method receives the same arguments as the event.
// See context argument comments for information on method's scope.
//
// dontFix:
// If obj is a DOM node, set dontFix to true to prevent delegation
// of this connection to the DOM event manager.
//
// example:
// When obj.onchange(), do ui.update():
// | dojo.connect(obj, "onchange", ui, "update");
// | dojo.connect(obj, "onchange", ui, ui.update); // same
//
// example:
// Using return value for disconnect:
// | var link = dojo.connect(obj, "onchange", ui, "update");
// | ...
// | dojo.disconnect(link);
//
// example:
// When onglobalevent executes, watcher.handler is invoked:
// | dojo.connect(null, "onglobalevent", watcher, "handler");
//
// example:
// When ob.onCustomEvent executes, customEventHandler is invoked:
// | dojo.connect(ob, "onCustomEvent", null, "customEventHandler");
// | dojo.connect(ob, "onCustomEvent", "customEventHandler"); // same
//
// example:
// When ob.onCustomEvent executes, customEventHandler is invoked
// with the same scope (this):
// | dojo.connect(ob, "onCustomEvent", null, customEventHandler);
// | dojo.connect(ob, "onCustomEvent", customEventHandler); // same

// example:
// When globalEvent executes, globalHandler is invoked
// with the same scope (this):
// | dojo.connect(null, "globalEvent", null, globalHandler);
