Ext.create() with xtype in config?

[estesbubba]

I'm converting a Touch 1.1 app to 2.0 and we have dynamic object creation from server data and do an Ext.create({xtype: 'xxx', ...}). I've looked all through the API and can't figure out how to do this with 2.0.

That is not supported. Ext.create takes 2 parameters, the class name and the config object. Ext.widget also takes 2 params, the xtype and the config object. You would need to create your own:

Ext.createWidget = function(config) {
    //<debug>
    if (!config.xtype) {
        Ext.Logger.warn('You must specify an xtype in your config object.');
        return;
    }
    //</debug>
    return Ext.widget(config.xtype, config);
};
