Ext.Class constructor issue

[nak1]

Guys,

I've got this singleton class that I'm using as a global object. I'm running into an issue, however, when I try to call the constructor, the config comes in as undefined.

Thoughts?

Ext.define('Resource.global.Config',{
	extend:'Ext.Class',
	singleton:true,
	config:{
		file_subtype:[],
		site_url:'',
		file_type:[],
		file_type_all:[],
		checkFileUploadSize:'',
		max_file_size:750,
		is_external:true,
		is_company_share_holder:false,
		is_company_manager:false,
		clientid:0,
		client:{},
		ajax_path:'/ajax/',
		ajax_interface_gather:'ajax_interface_gather.cfm',
		ajax_interface_post:"ajax_interface_post.cfm",
		comm_menu:[],
		comm_category:[],
		state:'',
        states:'',
        weight_unit:[],
        height_unit:[],
        resource_conditions:'',
        pos_resource:false,
        company_tile:'',
        military_service:'',
        education_level:'',
        system_configuration_setting:'',
		image_upload_url:'',
		resources_import:[]
	},
	
    constructor: function(config) {
    	this.initConfig(config);
        return this;
    }
});

You shouldn't extend Ext.Class.

You can extend Ext.Base, but it's not needed.

What's the best approach to make a global config object for a package?

You can put global configs in a singleton which can be required it in any class. I think this was a good idea.

When I use Ext.Base config is still undefined. Seems to me that this is a bit of a bug (regardless of whether or not I should be using this or not).

Can you simplify your example and create a bare minimum fiddle which still demonstrates the problem?

[nak1]

Sure, here's a link: https://fiddle.sencha.com/#fiddle/11oi

Open your console and take a look at the output of config.

I simplified the fiddle and it works fine. Can you modify the simpler fiddle to show the issue?

[nak1]

But in your fiddle the config is still undefined when it comes into the constructor. Is that just not pulling in the config?

[LesJ]

It's undefined because you are not passing config values to the singleton. I didn't see a singleton which would accept dynamic configuration values to be used upon creation.

See, the 2nd example where a config is passed to the constructor.
