Updating a custom field, triggered by event

[Mikkel Kragelund Nielsen]

Hey

I'm developing a custom fidls, where value changes is pased on events.
When ever a issue is changed the field might have to be updated, if some fields are changed.

I have already created the custom field, but im having trouble adding a eventlistner to it.

Or shall the event lister be a plugin module of its own?

Yes, you should write a listener if you want to catch and act on events.

The listeners I've written have all been done in plugins (one as part of a bigger piece where the plugin provided some stuff that the listener used - no point in doing them separately)

Ok.

But you make a seperat module, including the listner?
Or do you implement it as a inner class?
