What happens when a Block triggers an Event?

When a Block triggers an Event, the corresponding handler screen action is executed, facilitating the flow of control in the application. This design allows developers to efficiently manage events by creating reusable actions that can be linked to multiple event handlers. This means that the same handler screen action can be used in several different contexts or for various events within the same or different Blocks, promoting consistent behavior and reducing code duplication.

Utilizing event handling in this manner provides flexibility and modularity, which are key principles in the OutSystems development environment. It enables developers to create scalable applications by encapsulating functionality within Blocks that respond to events, thus enhancing the maintainability of the application code.
