Use Extjs And Jquery Together In One Application?

we have a big ExtJS (still ExtJs 2) application, which provides windows explorer like functionality on a Java EE server. We now evaluate implementing a new functionality; we could

Solution 1:

You will not have to deal with any side effect. The only problems I ever ran into when I did this is if I tried to operate on elements that Extjs relied on being left alone. Just make sure that when you start operating using jQuery that you're working inside a div that extjs doesn't plan to mess with. The best way to do this is to inherit from Ext.Component and then operate inside the div it provides. Ext doesn't do anything inside this div so you should be ok. You can also tap into the resize functionality if you need to, though this is not really necessary.

Solution 2:

My company does so with no problems on a fairly large Apache/Catalyst site. We do use jQuery() rather than $() due to some old Prototype stuff on our site.

Solution 3:

keep jQuery within the jQuery namespace http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.noConflict/

Use it like so: $.noConflict();

jQuery only adds a single object (jQuery) to the window's context so you won't have any conflicts.

Solution 4:

PROBLEM: Some third party libraries for jquery may rely on static webpage organization. As ExtJS components can be added to webpage dynamically - they will have no functions from third party libraries.

SOLUTION: You will have to run this library's script after component is added (use afterrender event, for example). Then you can call these functions on this ext component.
