Add new public event while extend on fields

[mdombos]

first of all sorry for my English :(

Is there any way to add a public event to the object while it is being extended?

So after i create the the new form object i want to add en eventlistener to them with the new event.



var formobject new Ext.form.NewField({
name: "Field Name"
});
formobject.on('NewEvent',function(){});


So how can i do it?

Any class that is descended from Observable can add events http://extjs.com/deploy/ext-1.1-rc1/docs/output/Ext.util.Observable.html#addEvents

I tried it alredy.

Here is my code which i wrote.



Ext.form.NewField = function(config){
Ext.form.NewField.superclass.constructor.call(this, config);
.
.
.
this.addEvents({
modifyRequest : true
});
};
Ext.extend(Ext.form.NewField, Ext.form.Field, {
// private

onRender : function(ct, position){
...
this.modifyRequest();
...
},
modifyRequest : function(){
this.fireEvent("modifyRequest", this);
alert('modifyRequest fired!');
}
});
Ext.onReady(function(){
frm = new Ext.form.Form({
labelAlign: 'top'
});

frm.add( new Ext.form.NewField({
name: "testfield"
})
);
frm.findField('testfield').on('modifyRequest',function () { alert('It works!')});
frm.render('divForm');
});


so when i perform the action which calls the modifyRequest function the "modifyRequest fired!" window pops up, but the "It works!" does not. Why?

Try making your event name lowercase.

Try making your event name lowercase.

I changed it, but it did not help!
