$routeParams and app initialisation with a deep link

[Bretto]

When I start my app (a basic slide show) with a deep link: "ng-slides/index.html#/slides/0" 

My SlideCtrl gets the slideIdx but the MainCtrl doesn't... both controllers have $routeParams injected though. My route is pointing to $routeProvider.when('/slides/:slideIdx', {template: 'partials/slide-viewer.html', controller: SlideCtrl});

Does this mean that you can only get the slideIdx from the controller that is linked to that route or is this a bug ?

I was thinking that $routeParams was a singleton and if so this is probably a bug....

How do you simulate deep link with fiddle ?

It appears to be a race condition... a controller with $routeParams may be initialise by Angular before $routParams is configured with the data...

Is this a bug or the expected behaviour ? As the sole purpose of $routeParams ( from my limited understanding ) is to provide its params, I am thinking that any controller requesting $routeParams dependency should be initialised only once $routeParams is configured...

I'm happy to have read this post, as I share the understanding of $routeParams with Bretto...
