Rails spinoffs - Sep 2007 - Does prototype get rid of PeriodicalExecuter once it is stop()?

Hello,

in my app the user can click "start" to ask for regular refreshments
of the data, and can also click "stop" to stop this refreshments (and
then he can click "start" again to restart the process).  im just
wondering that , if he keeps starting and stopping, that is creating
new PeriodicalExecuters and stoping them, if there will be any memory
issues, does prototype gets rid of the PeriodicalExecuter Instances
once they are stopped?

You don''t have to worry, it''s only one instance :)

The PeriodicalExecuter does a setInterval and on each call checks if
it''s stopped or not, in which case calls your method. It
doesn''t spawn
new PeriodicalExecuters or anything.

Best,
Nicolas
