$.sap.log.setLevel($.sap.log.Level.DEBUG); 
function fnCallback(result) {
	alert('Result is ' + result);
} 
function fnCallback(result) {
	jQuery.sap.log.info('Result is', result);
}

  • 4 types: JavaScript, XML, JSON, HTML

view/My.view.js
sap.ui.jsview('your.namespace.view.My', {
	createContent: function(oController) {}
});
app.js
var myView = sap.ui.view({
	viewName: 'your.namespace.view.My',
	type: sap.ui.core.mvc.ViewType.JS
});
Move button logic from app to the view

Controller

update config.js
 sap.ui.localResources('myapp');
  • change view -> myapp/My.view.xml
<core:View controllerName="myapp.My"
	xmlns="sap.m" xmlns:core="sap.ui.core">

	<Button
		text="My Button"
		icon="sap-icon://popup-window"
		press="handleShowPopup"
	/>

</core:View>

sap.ui.controller('myapp.My', {

});

onInit();
onExit();
onAfterRendering();
onBeforeRendering();
