subscribing problem

[tqwhite]

I have an event that one class is not getting even though lots of
others do. The subscribe method is built into a base class that I add
to the controller prototype.

Any quick ideas about what might be wrong with that one controller?

thanks,
tqii

You mean you're not using controller/subscribe?

I have this:

'universalCancelLogin subscribe':function(ev, options){ ... },

in my controller prototype. When I publish:

this.publish('universalCancelLogin');

Many controllers receive it. One of them doesn't. I can't figure out
why.

Have you added your controller to an element?

And forgot to remove onDocument:true?

[tqwhite]

The controller is assigned to an element and does lots of really good
work. I was all excited by the onDocument suggestion, but, I'm
disappointed to say, there's no mention of onDocument in the
controller.

This is the kind of stuff that makes me crazy.

If you have any more ideas, let me know. I'll keep trying things.

Could it be a namespace thing?

The controller that sends the logout event is in a different universe
from the one that won't catch it. I have discovered that none of the
controllers in the dysfunctional branch are receiving the event (they
happen to have no responsibilities in this one).

My folder/namespace structure is like this:

toplevelfolder
appcontrollers
group1folder
brokencontrollerfolder
broken_controller.js
views

systemcontrollers
loginfolder
login_controller
views

The class names are, respectively:

TopLevelfolder.Appcontrollers.Group1folder.Brokencontrollercolder.Broken

TopLevelfolder.Systemcontrollers.Loginfolder.Login

Is this a clue?

This is a really stupid suggestion, but it bit me for long time once.
Did you remember the " subscribe" on the end of your controller
method? Make sure you spelled it consistently? Are any other
subscribed methods working in that controller?
