Cancel $routeChangeStart event...

[Vili]

Hi All,

I am listening $routeChangeStart event while view change....

MyApp.run(function ($rootScope) {
    $rootScope.$on('$routeChangeStart', function (event, scope, newRoute) {
       if(Some Condition){
         //code to stop $routeChangeStart
    });

});

I want to stop the $routeChangeStart event.

Hi Vili,

You can cancel the event.

I have implemented a solution like this:

$scope.hasChanges = function () {

return false;

}

var blockNavigation = true;

$scope.$on('$locationChangeStart', function(event, next, current) {

          if ($scope.hasChanges() & blockNavigation) {

            event.preventDefault();

            

            MessageService.showConfirmation(

                'Are you sure?', 

                MessageService.MessageOptions.YES_NO, 

                {'YES': function() {

                    blockNavigation = false;

                    $location.url($location.url(next).hash());

                    $rootScope.$apply();

                  },

                  'NO': function(){MessageService.clear(); $log.log('NO Selected')}});

          }

        });

Cheers
