Sencha Cmd app Build (production, testing ...) Ext.create vs xtypes

[Malro]

What are the differences betwen using xtypes and the Ext.create() way?

I am asking, because, i was trying to build an app based on ST 2.1. In develop mode all worked fine. But after using sencha cmd to build (minfier) the app

sencha app build production

i was facing the fact, that nearly no view was working. e.g. jsonp requests were successful, but the corresponding lists show nothing

after some tests, i recognized the problem has something to do with using multiple view files. if i was putting the whole view stuff in one file, all worked fine in developmode and also after builds.

the comments in the docs gave me the needed hint. here (go down to comments) the user talwinder is posting a solution

I was using Ext.create() to instantiate a class/view. After using xtypes all works.

thanks to talwinder

I have the same problem. but i can't render it in one view because i render each view to another component in a page by the component id.

Does anybody from Sencha have a solution? or is it a bug?

Ext.create('class');

dont you think it is a function calling?

{
   xtype:'xtype'
}

dont you think it is a simple object?

Ext.ClassManager.getName({xtype:'xtype'})// ''
Ext.ClassManager.getName(Ext.create('class'))//className

if you get problem with Ext.create, make sure your require config is correct.

short example. two ways to add same view, all works, but after build the form added by function call is not working

items: [
        Ext.create('AppName.view.xyz'), // after build not doing fine
        {
            xtype: 'xyz' //ok
        }
]
