Unless things have changed with IRIS I generally prefer to use triggers over any of the object implementations.  Properly defined triggers will be executed whether you are doing an object Save or a SQL INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE.  You may only want to perform the code during object save but I find why not implement the code in a trigger where you know it will always be executed.  Additionally triggers provider  

{ColumnName*N}

{ColumnName*O}

syntax which is valuable.
