Hi Ramana Raju Santhana

Your code is clean and consistent. I'm just curious why you choose to add the _dispose function? Is it just habit? Surely since you are extending the class, there's no need to call it explicitly? Or is there an advantage I'm not aware of?

HI Ramana Raju Santhana

Thanks for the help.

Hi Ramana Raju Santhana

why you have used 

_dispose: function() { 
   this._super('_dispose'); 
} 

what is the need of this...

Hi Ramana Raju Santhana,

when I apply this code I got an error 

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'options')

please help me to sort it out.
