the jqueryui datepicker "create" of event don't work

In my project which uses with jQueryUI's datepicker of plugins,

but in this code, the "create" event never fires,

you can check the documentation in official site: http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/#option-showOptions

$('#datepicker').datepicker({
    create: function(event, ui) {
        alert("ppp");
    }
});

There is no event for create in date picker plugin in Jquery ui. You can use:

$('#datepicker').datepicker({ 
    onSelect: function (dateText, inst) {
        create(); 
    } 
}); 
function create() { 
    alert("ppp"); 
}

You won't be able to achieve this with the jQuery UI Datepicker because no such event is simply triggered.

The documentation of jQuery UI is sometimes a bit falsy. My opinion is that the authors rely on the fact that all plugins are using the Widget Factory but this is actually not the case for the datepicker !

For plugins thats uses the Widget factory, the event "create" is automatically triggered during the creation of the Widget:

_createWidget: function( options, element ) {
    // some other code
    // ...    
    this._create();
    this._trigger( "create" );
    this._init();
},

Unfortunately, neither the datepicker implements the Widget factory (this planned though) nor it triggers a "create" event explicitely (source).
