+ // description:
+ // This API defines a set of APIs that all datastores that conform to the
+ // Notifications API must implement. In general, most stores will implement
+ // these APIs as no-op functions for users who wish to monitor them to be able
+ // to connect to then via dojo.connect(). For non-users of dojo.connect,
+ // they should be able to just replace the function on the store to obtain
+ // notifications. Both read-only and read-write stores may implement
+ // this feature. In the case of a read-only store, this feature makes sense if
+ // the store itself does internal polling to a back-end server and periodically updates
+ // its cache of items (deletes, adds, and updates).
+ // example:
+ // | function onSet(item, attribute, oldValue, newValue){
+ // | //Do something with the information...
+ // | };
+ // | var store = new some.newStore();
+ // | dojo.connect(store, "onSet", onSet);
