Introduction
RegisterCombatEvent

Details
The point of this library is to instead of having one large COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED function with if-else checks for the event type, you can "register" the event types and set a function for each one.

Where as before you might have:

Code:

function CLEU(...)
    if arg2 == "SPELL_AURA_APPLIED" then
        do stuff
    elseif arg2 == "SPELL_AURA_REMOVED" then
        do other stuff
    end
end

Now you can do:

Code:

RCE:Embed(MyFrame)

function Applied(self, ...)
    do stuff
end

function Removed(self, ...)
    do other stuff
end

function Missed(self, ...)
    do some more stuff
end

MyFrame:RegisterCombatEvent("SPELL_AURA_APPLIED", Applied)
MyFrame:RegisterCombatEvent("SPELL_AURA_REMOVED", Removed)
MyFrame:RegisterCombatEvents("SPELL_MISSED", "SPELL_CAST_FAILED", Missed)

The self in the above functions will return as the frame registered with the combat event, in this case MyFrame.

There is also no need to register the event COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED to your addon, as RegisterCombatEvent will do it for you.

It is important to note that the first 2 arguments normally returned by COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED (timestamp and eventType) are NOT returned using RCE. In the above functions, ... will start at the 3rd argument (source name) and carry on from there.

API

:RegisterCombatEvents("event1", "event2", "event3", function)
- Where "event" is any event found on http://www.wowwiki.com/API_COMBAT_LOG_EVENT
- :RegisterCombatEvents() will take as many events as you'd like, but only one function.
