short names for extjs classes and namespaces

i have something like 

Ext.define('HS.controller.Utility', {
  statics : {
    state : 'Oklahoma'
     }
  });

Now i want to access it from my controllers, but in every method of controller, i have to write HS.controller.Utility.state to access it. currently i'm doing this : var ut = HS.controller.Utility and then accessing state as ut.state, but again, i've to declare this variable in every function. Is there a way to set it to a short name once in my controller and then access from all functions?

Solution

  • There are several ways you could do it, the best of which:

    // Becomes a global variable
var X = Ext.define('My.long.class.Name');

// Set a reference on your main NS at launch time
launch: function() {
    MyApp.X = My.long.class.Name;
}
