# enable

Enable event source.

## Declaration

```occ
virtual void enable(); 
```

## Overview

Overview A subclass implementation is expected to respect the enabled state when checkForWork is called. Calling this function will cause the work-loop to be signalled so that a checkForWork is performed.
