Hmmm... It looks like I need to list every event that any superclass listens for in an "events" array. This means that I need to search through all superclasses looking for what events are listened for. I expect that once the framework gets 0.7-ized, all of the @event hints will get converted somehow, but it seems that it's the addEventListener() that's important here, not the dispatchEvents() which are what are associated with the @event hints. How is this going to work? Ok, for the benefit of anyone else trying to extend an existing class, you need to do something like this (which I've arrived at by trial and error; I'm sure I'm not done yet. :-) ... qx.Clazz.define("myclass.widget.tree.Tree", { extend : qx.ui.treevirtual.TreeVirtual, construct : function(headings) { this.base(arguments, headings); }, events : [ "appear", "tableWidthChanged", "verticalScrollBarChanged" ] }); BTW, "events" is not documented at <http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/articles/proposed_class_declaration_for_qooxdoo_0.7?s=clazz> which is the only place I know of that this structure is documented. Is there additional documentation, or was "events" inadvertently left out of the docs? Cheers, Derrell ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
