Is there a good way to consolidate callbacks?

Question

I got a unique callback for each userservice: e.g.

userService.GetAllUsers( new GetAllUsersCallBack() );
userService.DeleteUser( app42userName, new deleteUsersCallBack() );
userService.Authenticate( userNameOrEmailInput , pwdInput, new UserAuthorization() );
userService.ResetUserPassword( app42userName, new UserPwdReset() );
userService.UpdateEmail( app42userName, emailId, new UserEmailChange() );
 

I know the userService callback is the same standard format for whatever userService call is made BUT is it possible to have only one callback and in that callback a way to tell which userService caused the callback to be called? Then I could use a switch statement to make my one callback do the proper and corresponding jobs depending on which userService I used.

Hi Huffman,

 

If you want to use these methods in single callback, You can set global variable for each method call like this.

 

e.g  bool getAllUsers = false, deleteUser = false; //etc

 

And when your method is called you must set this variable to true. e.g getAllUsers  = true;

 

finally do something like that in your callback.

 

public class UnityCallBack : App42CallBack

{

public void OnSuccess(object response)

{

 

 if(getAllUsers )

 {

  IList<User> users = (IList<User>) response;

  //do your code 

 }else if(deleteUser)

 {

  User user = (User) response;   

  // do your code 

 }

 getAllUsers = false;

 deleteUser = false;

}

public void OnException(Exception e)

{

App42Log.Console("Exception : " + e);

}

}
