[bfprog] RE: BFProg Unregistering Handlers

[Brandon]

Just set a flag like AllowEventtoFire and set it to false when you need it
to be unregistered.

I'm working on a fairly esoteric BF2 Python problem that requires me to
be able to UNregister a previously registered event handler. There's a
host.unregisterGameStatusHandler method that can be used to unregister
game status handlers, but I can't find anything equivalent for normal
handlers that were registered with host.registerHandler.

Anyone have any ideas?

They dont exist. We have raised this issue with EA / Dice.
I've coded the default ModManager modules to 
workaround this for loading unloading but its not perfect :(

If your interested in looking / testing this see here:

Hopefully we can get this fixed in 1.03.

Like Steven said, this method don't seem to exist. I don't know what
technique Steven uses in his Modmanager, though I am looking forward to
seeing his work, but, depending on why you need to unregister the event
handler, you might get by by simply reassigning the function being
called to do absolutely nothing? It would still incur the time to call,
obviously, but just let it pass/return immediately.

You could use a simple dummy-function for this which takes nothing but
key/val arguments, so that each and every function you want to
cancel/unregister can be redirected to this single dummy-function.
