|Function as parameters

http://www.openfl.org/archive/community/programming-haxe/passing-function-argument/

Simple declaration
[code]

var typeName:Void->Void = test;

public var eventBegin_cb:BitmapData->Bitmap;
public var eventEnd_cb:Sprite->Void;

typeName(); // to run the function
[/code]

An array of function would be
[code]
var arr:Array<Void->Void> = new Array<Void->Void>();
//even better Array<Dynamic->Void> for many function with different return types
[/code]

Using the callback
[code]
i = 1234;
arr[i] = myFunction;
arr[i](); //will run the function;
[/code]
