Hi Chandeep

you can do this

var oView = sap.ui.getCore().byId('<view Id>'); // this gives you the view
var oController = oView.getController();

I do not know what you intend to do with this. I do not suggest that you try to call function of the controller directly.

Thanks

i have three views. i want to use first view "contol id" in second view contoller.

don't access the ui control in your controller(unless you have no choice)

if you really want.... use event to inform the first view controller to do the job

use sap.ui.getCore().byId('splitAppId').getPages()[0].getController()

here splitAppId is your SplitApp id Which is defined in Component.js file

Hi,

I guess you are trying to access data of a view from other view. If this is the case then probably I would suggest to make use of the MODELs to access data .
