Problem with DirectStore

[Izvr]

Hello.
I am trying to use Direct b DirectStore in my application, but I have some problems with them.

I write in MVC style and add in my app.js file this:

                Ext.direct.Manager.addProvider({
                    'type': 'remoting',
                    'url': '/places/remoting/router/',
                    'namespace': 'Recruitant.places',


                    'actions': {
                        'city': [
                            {
                                'formHandler': false,
                                'name': 'load_cities',
                                'len': 1
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                });
                Recruitant.places.city.load_cities();

This code work fine, but I try to define Model like this:

Ext.define('Recruitant.model.City', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Model',


    proxy: {
        type: 'direct',
        url: '/places/remoting/router/',
        directFn: 'Recruitant.places.city.load_cities'
    },


    fields: [
        {name: 'id', type: 'int'},
        {name: 'name', type: 'string'}
    ]
});

and DirectStore like this:

Ext.define('Recruitant.store.Cities', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.DirectStore',
    model: 'Recruitant.model.City'


});

and in my firebug have error "fn is undefined".

Help me to solve this problem, please.

My code works if I create grid, store and other objects in app.js, but it is not work if I write Store, Model and other stuff with Ext.define.

On the client side, remove the quotes around the directFn specification: it needs to be a function, not a strong.


You have:
directFn: 'Recruitant.places.city.load_cities'

You should have:
directFn: Recruitant.places.city.load_cities

@oniseijin - not true, docs say: "The directFn may also be a string reference to the fully qualified name of the function, for example: 'MyApp.company.GetProfile'. This can be useful when using dynamic loading. The string will be looked up when the proxy is created."

I am using it as a string in my application now and it is necessary in case the JS gets loaded out of order, although I have gotten intermittent errors about the directFn is null whether I use the string or function symbol format
