how to define custom Ext.data.Types?

[manuelhitz]

I'm trying to define a custom Ext.data.Types type like explained on http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/api/Ext.data.Types


Ext.data.Types.SEATCATEGORY = {
convert: function(v) {
...
},
// TODO: supposed to use sortType, but doesn't work?!?
sorterFn: function(rec1, rec2) {
...
},
type: 'SeatCategory'
};


But I get an "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'SEATCATEGORY' of undefined" error. Like Ext.data.Types isn't defined yet. I'm actually trying to migrate a Sencha Touch 1 app to Sencha Touch 2. It's more compliated than expected )

ok. Doing it like that works, but please update the docs:

Ext.apply(Ext.data.Types, {
SEATCATEGORY: {
convert: function(v) {
...
},
// TODO: supposed to use sortType, but doesn't work?!?
sorterFn: function(rec1, rec2) {
...
},
type: 'SeatCategory'
}
});

as seen on http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthre...Ext.data.Types
