prepareData not working in List?

[basememara]

Both variables show up blank in the template. In regular Ext JS 4, this works perfectly. Is there a new way to do this in Touch 2 or is this a bug?

{    xtype: 'list',
    store: 'SomeStore',
    itemTpl: [
        '<div>{shortTitle}</div>',        '<div>{sometest}</div>'
    ],
    prepareData: function(data) {
        Ext.apply(data, {
            shortTitle: Ext.util.Format.ellipsis(data.name, 7),            sometest: 'Test'
        });
        return data;
    }
}

This is a bug. I've added it to our bug tracker.

when do you think you guys'll release the prepareData bug fixed version? any rough ideas?

[Jamie Avins]

I can't give any dates as of yet, should be soon though.

I'm using version 2.0.1.1 and am running into this problem using an Ext.dataview.List instance, where prepareData is not being called at all.

Is the fix in some other version or have I found something else?

var cfg = {
    extend:'Ext.dataview.List';
    config: {
       store: myStore;
        itemTpl: [
              '<tpl for=".">',
                  '<div class="requests-wrap x-data-item" id="request-{ID}">',
                      '{title}',
                      '<span>{summary}</span>',
                      '<span>{subject}</span>',
                  '</div>',
              '</tpl>',
              '<div class="x-clear"></div>'
        ].join(''),

        prepareData: function(data, recordIndex, record) {
            // Never called
            Ext.apply(data, {
                title: "My Title,
                summary: "My Summary"
            });
            return data;
        },        
    }
}
Ext.define('myName', cfg);

Thanks,

Did anyone that had this problem earlier get a fix in a later release?
Is there a workaround?

Thanks,

RC1 doesn't use the data from prepareData to actually populate the itemTpl. prepareData gets called by the DataItem class but then the ListItem call ListItem.getBody().setRecord(record) which is what results in rendering of the itemTpl the ListItem.getBody() does not have the prepareData but only a getData(true).

This has been fixed for the next release. Thanks for the report.

And which release is that? You posted in October 2012. This is March 2013, using Sencha Touch 2.1.1 and the function still does not get called.
