Created class has default values instead of undefined

[ipavlic]

I have an entity defined like this:

Ext.define('MyApp.model.Entity', { extend : 'Ext.data.Model',
fields : [ {
name : 'id',
type : 'int'
} ]
});

If I instantiate it and look at the id, it will have a default value of 0:


var entity = Ext.create('MyApp.model.Entity');
console.log(entity.getId()); //will output '0' instead of 'undefined'

Is this expected behaviour? Why?

That is default behaviour of field with 'int' type. If you want default value is null instead of 0, try to set useNull to true. See more here http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-1/#!/api/Ext.data.Field-cfg-useNull.


Ext.define('MyApp.model.Entity', {
extend : 'Ext.data.Model',
fields : [ {
name : 'id',
type : 'int',
useNull: true
}]
});
