We saw earlier in this chapter that Ext.Container
is the base class for all the containers. It gives the basic building block and the specific behaviors are implemented in the respective specific containers. Ext.Panel
acts as a generic container class with the support for docking. If your application only needs a container so that you can add items to it and they are rendered, then you should go for Ext.Container
rather than using Ext.Panel
. In this recipe, we will see how to make use of Ext.Container
to contain our item.
Make sure that you have set up your development environment by following the recipes outlined in Chapter 1, Gear up for the Journey.
Create a new folder named ch03
in the same folder where we created the ch01
and ch02
folders. We will be using this new folder for keeping the code.
