var myApp = new DCR();
myApp.createEvent({'id':'Enter'}).connectFrom(myApp.createEvent({'id':'Exit'}), 'condition');
//this will create an Event Element with Enter Id and will create a condition relation from another Exit element to this Enter

var myApp = new DCR();
myApp.createEvent({'id':'Enter'}).createConnection(myApp.createEvent({'id':'Exit'}), 'condition', true);
//this will create an Event Element with Enter Id and will create a condition relation from another Exit element to this Enter
