Listen to application events from non-controllers?

[karpatyx@ya.ru]

Hello guys,

Sorry for kind of a stupid question, but I believe that anybody of you can answer in 10 seconds while I haven't figured answer yet in 25 minutes :).

I have singleton class and I want it listening to application-level events:


Ext.define('ikhtml.utils.windowManager.windowManager', {
singleton: true,


constructor: function ()
{
this.application.on({
loggedOut: this.onLoggedOut,
scope: this
});
}
...

But "application" property is valid only for controllers. How to access application instance from other classes?

Sure, I can pass it as parameter or set as property, but there should be much better solution.

Thanks for YOUR time.

If your windowManager class have not widgets in it i'll simply rewrite it as controller

Sorry, but I'll disagree.

Controllers have clearly defined role in MVC. My window manager is not a controller, it's class. I wouldn't like adding mess to application just to get single reference.

since you probably have set a namespace for your app, i would try to directly address it.

I tried using namespace but without success:

ikhtml.on({
...
});

How I decided to move on:


App.js:

launch: function()
{
windowManager.init(this);
...
},

windowManager.js:

init: function(application)
{
this.application = application; // got reference here
this._subscribeToEvents();
},



If anybody knows more elegant decision, I would be much grateful for.
