+
+ + + +
+

+A base class which objects requiring attributes and custom event support can +extend. Base also handles the chaining of initializer and destructor methods across +the hierarchy as part of object construction and destruction. Additionally, attributes configured +through the static ATTRS property for each class +in the hierarchy will be initialized by Base. +

+

+The static NAME property of each class extending +from Base will be used as the identifier for the class, and is used by Base to prefix +all events fired by instances of that class. +

+
+ +
+

Constructor

+
+
+ Base + + ( + + + + config + ) + +
+
+
Parameters:
+
+ config + <Object> + + Object with configuration property name/value pairs +
+
+ + +
+
+
+
+ +
+
+

Properties

+
+
+

Base._ATTR_CFG + - private static Array +

+
+
+ The list of properties which can be configured for +each attribute (e.g. setter, getter, writeOnce, readOnly etc.) +
+
+ + + + +
+
+
+

Base._buildCfg + - private static final Object +

+
+
+ The build configuration for the Base class. +Defines the static fields which need to be aggregated +when the Base class is used as the main class passed to +the Base.build method. +
+
+ + + + +
+
+
+

Base.ATTRS + - static Object +

+
+
+ The default set of attributes which will be available for instances of this class, and +their configuration. In addition to the configuration properties listed by +Attribute's addAttr method, the attribute +can also be configured with a "cloneDefaultValue" property, which defines how the statically +defined value field should be protected ("shallow", "deep" and false are supported values). +By default if the value is an object literal or an array it will be "shallow" cloned, to +protect the default value. +
+
+ + + + +
+
+
+

Base.NAME + - static String +

+
+
+

+The string to be used to identify instances of +this class, for example in prefixing events. +

+

+Classes extending Base, should define their own +static NAME property, which should be camelCase by +convention (e.g. MyClass.NAME = "myClass";). +

+
+
+ + + + +
+
+
+

name + - String +

+
+
+ The string used to identify the class of this object. +
+
+ + + +
+ Deprecated: Use this.constructor.NAME +
+ +

Events

+
+
+

+ destroy

+
+ + + + + destroy + + ( + + + e + + + ) + + + +
+

+Lifecycle event for the destroy phase, +fired prior to destruction. Invoking the preventDefault +method on the event object provided to subscribers will +prevent destruction from proceeding. +

+

+Subscribers to the "after" moment of this event, will be notified +after destruction is complete (and as a result cannot prevent +destruction). +

+
+ +
+ + +
+
Parameters:
+
+ e + <EventFacade> + + Event object +
+ +
+ +
+ Preventable: This event is preventable by method e.preventDefault(). The default function executed by this event is _defDestroyFn. +
+ +
+ +
+
+
+
+

+ destroyedChange

+
+ + + + + destroyedChange + + ( + + + event + + + ) + + + +
+ Fires when the value for the configuration attribute 'destroyed' is changed. You can listen for the event using the on method if you wish to be notified before the attribute's value has changed, or using the after method if you wish to be notified after the attribute's value has changed. +
+ +
+ + +
+
Parameters:
+
+ event + <Event.Facade> + + An Event Facade object with the following attribute specific properties added:
prevVal

+ +
+
+
+
+

+ init

+
+ + + + + init + + ( + + + e + + + ) + + + +
+

+Lifecycle event for the init phase, fired prior to initialization. +Invoking the preventDefault() method on the event object provided +to subscribers will prevent initialization from occuring. +

+

+Subscribers to the "after" momemt of this event, will be notified +after initialization of the object is complete (and therefore +cannot prevent initialization). +

+
+ +
+ + +
+
Parameters:
+
+ e + <EventFacade> + + Event object, with a cfg property which +refers to the configuration object passed to the constructor. +
+ +
+ +

+ +
+ +
+
+
+
+

+ initializedChange

+
+ + + + + initializedChange + + ( + + + event + + + ) + + + +
+ Fires when the value for the configuration attribute 'initialized' is changed. You can listen for the event using the on method if you wish to be notified before the attribute's value has changed, or using the after method if you wish to be notified after the attribute's value has changed. +
+ +
+ + +
+
Parameters:
+
+ event + <Event.Facade> + + An Event Facade object with the following attribute specific properties added:
prevVal
The value of the attribute, prior to it being set
newVal
The value the attribute is to be set to
attrName
