    text
    copied!<p>I am testing Jake out as a possible replacement for Rake on a primarily javascript project. Now one thing that I am finding as odd is that the completion event is being triggered BEFORE the event has completed.</p> <p>Here is an example:</p> <pre><code>task('some_task_1', {async: true}, function () { console.log("|- Doing something"); var execCallback = function() { console.log(" |- Done something"); complete(); }; setTimeout(execCallback, 2000); }); task('some_task_2', {async: true}, function () { console.log("|- Doing something else"); var execCallback = function() { console.log(" |- Done something else"); complete(); }; setTimeout(execCallback, 2000); }); task('task_runner', {async: true}, function () { var firstTask = jake.Task['some_task_1']; var secondTask = jake.Task['some_task_2']; firstTask.addListener("complete", function() { secondTask.invoke(); }); secondTask.addListener("complete", function() { complete(); }); firstTask.invoke(); }); task('default', function () { jake.Task['task_runner'].invoke(); }); </code></pre> <p>I would have expected that the output would be:</p> <pre><code>|- Doing something |- Done something |- Doing something else |- Done something else </code></pre> <p>However what I actually get is:</p> <pre><code>|- Doing something |- Doing something else |- Done something |- Done something else </code></pre> <p>So is there some magic around how the async should be working in Jake? as it seems to be somehow firing a complete event before its actually finished the exec.</p> <p>== EDIT ==</p> <p>Just so there is no confusion I am using version 0.5.16 of Jake <a href="https://github.com/mde/jake" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/mde/jake</a></p> <p>== EDIT 2 ==</p> <p>Have posted another example which now should show the exact issue in a clearer way as it seems to be related to tasks within tasks which are async.</p>
