How to hook into an event in theme?

Hi,
Is there a way to create an addon, so I can hook into event "AfterSignIn"? Is there a code example to do so?
I want to test something like, after user logs in, php runs die('testing') :)

I've just created a simple and quite useless starter plugin, that you can use to get going.
In that plugin you have to create a new method. If you read through the documentation you might find a pargraph about events. Since "AfterSignIn" is fired in the EntryController, you need to insert a method called "entryController_afterSignIn_handler".
Instead of dumping like you've planned to, I would recommend something less drastic which would require to have phpMyAdmin or similar opened in parallel.
That would write a line to the GDN_UserMeta table where you can look up what happened without interrupting the login process.
$args
are all the EventArguments that are filled before the event is fired. If you want to handle something, those args are most probably of interest for you.Relavent documentation here:
There are a few examples as well.
