[Dojo-interest] use buildRendering for creating and placing in to dom

[computerbum]

Hello all,

I am just making sure that I understand how to use buildRendering.



I created a widget that does not use a template it just creates a couple of
nodes and places them in the dom using domConstruct.place().

At first, I created all my nodes in postCreate but I need to create the
nodes before postCreate gets called so I decided to build and attach the
nodes in buildRendering which does what I want.

My question is, is this the right place to do this?

a little sample of the code:

buildRendering: function() {
this.inherited( arguments );

// at first I created all my node in postCreate but decided to put it here
this.label = domConstruct.place( '<label> New Account</label>',
this.accountRadioBtn.domNode, 'after');
},

postCreate: function() {
this.inherited( arguments );
}

Oh and btw, you dont need to define a lifecycle method and call super, if you
are not overriding a default behavior
I am referring to your code snippet which defines a postCreate and does a
this.inherited(arguments)
