toolkit.whenQuiet: JavaScript function: Transforms a function that should not be called too often into a function that can be called as often as you like.

Description

The returned function can be called as often as you like with whatever arguments you like. If it is called again within ticks ticks (a tick is 100ms), this call is ignored. If it is not called again within this time, the arguments are passed on to the delegate function. In other words, in a string of calls less than ticks x 100ms apart from each other, only the last of these calls actually happens.

Value

Function that can be called often, resulting in fewer calls to the delegate function f.

Arguments

ticks

int Duration (x 100ms) to wait until calling the delgate function.

f

function Delegate function to be called ticks ticks after the last call to the retuned function.
