/** * @class Ext.ComponentMgr * @extends Ext.AbstractManager *

Provides a registry of all Components (instances of {@link Ext.Component} or any subclass * thereof) on a page so that they can be easily accessed by {@link Ext.Component component} * {@link Ext.Component#id id} (see {@link #get}, or the convenience method {@link Ext#getCmp Ext.getCmp}).

*

This object also provides a registry of available Component classes * indexed by a mnemonic code known as the Component's {@link Ext.Component#xtype xtype}. * The {@link Ext.Component#xtype xtype} provides a way to avoid instantiating child Components * when creating a full, nested config object for a complete Ext page.

*

A child Component may be specified simply as a config object * as long as the correct {@link Ext.Component#xtype xtype} is specified so that if and when the Component * needs rendering, the correct type can be looked up for lazy instantiation.

*

For a list of all available {@link Ext.Component#xtype xtypes}, see {@link Ext.Component}.
