Say I’ve created a display object, a function to handle tap events on that object, and have bound the function to the event like this:
obj:addEventListener('tap', tapEvent)
Is there a simple function to then later trigger that tapEvent as if the user did just tap on the object?
Presumably I could construct a fake event table with things like target, x, y, etc properties and pass this to the defined function, like this:
tapEvent({ target = obj, x = 0, y = 0 })
But this doesn’t feel like the right approach. I’m hoping there’s something more like an obj:invokeEventListener(‘tap’) that I just haven’t found yet?
