javascript - ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5 migration

Question

We are migrating a web application from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.

Testing the index.html results in the following error (outputted by the Firefox-FireBug-console):

NetworkError: 404 Not Found - http://localhost:8080/ext/build/examples/ux/grid/FiltersFeature.js?_dc=1414147197935

I have already searched for the FilterFeatures.js-file inside the directory, but it isn't there.

According to the "Whats New in ExtJS 5.0"-site this file was so popular, that they thought it would be wise to move it.

Can someone tell me how to include this file or the functionality, so that the error vanishes?

I have already tried to add the following to my app.js file:

Ext.Loader.setPath('Ext.ux', './ext/build/examples/ux');
Ext.application({
    ...
    requires: [
        'Ext.ux.grid.FiltersFeature'
    ],
    ...
});

But the error persists. I think i need to get a reference to an object that is now hidden somewhere else.

I just dont know how to reference it, because i dont know the js-file it is now placed in and how to do it syntactically correct in Ext JS 5.

Answer 1

The basics are in the link you provided:

• They removed the feature Ext.ux.grid.FiltersFeature (ftype: filters).
• They introduced a plugin Ext.grid.filters.Filters (ptype: gridfilters)
  as an enhanced replacement.

So you will have to rework your grids manually to use the new plugin instead of the old feature.

Good luck.
