Combo box validator and Display value vs value

[stimpy]

I have a combo box

xtype:'combobox',
name:'myExampleName',
id:'myExampleId',
displayField:'dips',
valueField:'val',
validator: function(value){
console.log(value);
}

This outputs the displayField value NOT the value field value .

If the name id of the object is "myExampleId" and I do this

var myTestObject= Ext.getCmp(myExampleId);
console.log(myTestObject.getValue());

I get the valueField value as expected.

Can anyone explain why ? Validator seems to acting wrongly .

[stimpy]

I still cannot seem to explain this .
Anyone have a clue ?
Am I using the validator incorrectly?

There must be a bug. I get the same behavior in extjs 3.4
Documentation specifies that the validator function should give the value as parameter.
