With a vanilla EventEmitter you can do turn off a listener from the listener it self and it works as expected: ```js const emitter = new EventEmitter(); const listener = () => { console.log('DONG'); emitter.off('DING', listener); } emitter.on('DING', listener); emitter.emit('DING'); emitter.emit('DING'); ``` Console output: ``` DONG ``` But with an EventEmitter wrapped with `cls-hooked`, it seems that you cannot turn off the event listener from within the listener itself: ```js const namespace = createNamespace('space'); const emitter = new EventEmitter(); namespace.bindEmitter(emitter); const listener = function () { console.log('PONG'); emitter.off('PING', listener); }; emitter.on('PING', listener); emitter.emit('PING'); emitter.emit('PING'); ``` Console output: ``` PONG PONG ```
