Why do you need oView? You are not using it further in the code..? If you want to access fields from the UI you can use Core.byId() from sap/ui/core/Core

Hi Willem,

It is a sample code I have taken from the internet to use in my requirement, and found it in other sample coes as well, but could not make it work either way. It therefore is for my knowledge that i want to understand why it won't work for me.

Thanks.

I see that you're working with controller extension , you can get the view with : this.base.getExtensionAPI()._view
