Overrides files are not found at build

[fdrg]

Version 5.1.1

I want to add a basic override to the Floating util class. The project was not created by me, so i don't know if generate app was used. What i have:

• [workspaceFolder]/overrides/util/Floating.js
• The Floating.js folder is defined as 'Overrides.util.Floating'
• In the app.js requires section i have added 'Overrides.util.Floating'
• In .sencha/workspace/sencha.cfg i have added app.classpath=${app.dir}/overrides

When i build the app i get the "Requirement had no matching files" error, pointing to Overrides.util.Floating in app.js

I think a starting point here is the fact that my app.js file is inside the application folder, basically the path to app.js is [workingdirectory]/src/app.js.

Hi--,

You should just need to add to the overrides section of your app.json. Instead of the requires/classpath can you try putting it just in the overrides section (app.json)

"overrides": [
   "overrides",
   "${workspace.dir}/overrides"
],

Hi, bjdurham85 your answer is part of the solution to my problem, thanks!

The issue was that in the application that i'm working on, the app.js, app.json, bootstrap.css etc. are in a folder called "src", placed under workspace directory. Having the override in [workspacedirectory]/overrides, didn't work, and i ended up placing the overrides folder in the app.dir, and in the json file i have

"Overrides": "${app.dir}/overrides"
