javascript - $viewContentLoaded isn't firing

Question

$viewContentLoaded never fires in my Angular controller. The following:

function MyController($scope)
{
    $scope.$on('$viewContentLoaded', function()
    {
        alert("blah");
    });
}

Never hits a breakpoint, and never pops up the alert. I think this is pretty standard use, so I'm not sure what it could be, but it's definitely not firing. Everything else in the controller is behaving properly.

What would cause this?

Answer 1

Try this instead:

  function MyController($scope)
    {
        $scope.$watch('$viewContentLoaded', function()
        {
            alert("blah");
        });
    }
