even the training course on ExtJS 4 will not help to the full extent. xCP has their own framework on top of ExtJS such as

1. xCP is not using sencha MVC but their own framework like actionController componentController etc.,

2. xCP extjs is integrated with OpenAjax for pub/sub mechaninsm which will not be covered in ExtJS training.

3. All the components have certain arch. like having a designer js, component js and associated xml.

Suggestion is that get ExtJS training and reverse engineer the xcp extjs framework to understand it better.

Can you tell us what is your requirement?

For extending the xcp, there is a developer guide to build custom widgets. Refer to that guide.

Hi Hari,

Thanks, We would like to start extending the existing widget and adding new functionality to it. For that purpose, would like to know any standard tool we can to use to customize it Eg: Eclipse with Sencha is one way of writing the ExtJS

Would be interested in any other tool that would fit the best practice to customize the xcp component and opinion on their experience with tool.

Eclipse with Sencha is one way where you need to buy from Sencha. I believe sencha also released intellij plugin but not sure whether it works with 4.x extjs.

We used webstorm which has good intellisense support for ExtJS.

Hi Hari,

Do we need license for Webstorm with intellisense support.

I am looking out for buying license from Sencha. There are several license are available like Commercial, Custom Use and Extension license. I am trying to contact EMC for guidance on buying license.

If you ask me, I dont suggest buying anything from Sencha. I dont see any point in buying the license. you will have intellisense support anyhow by IDEs without plugins as well.
