The handle event method is typically used for communication between objects such as knockout components
handleEvent = (eventName:string, data?:any)=> {
let me = this;
switch (eventName) {
case 'person-selected' :
me.newTerm(<INameValuePair>data.person);
break;
case 'person-search-cancelled' :
// alert('Search cancelled.');
break;
case 'test' :
alert('event test');
break;
}
};
