Use controller in view in MVC
- by gavri
I have a problem convincing my team mates why we shouldn't use (directly reference) the controller in the view when developing components in the spirit of MVC.
I have invoked decoupling and natural intuition, but still those arguments didn't get through.
They say, in their defense, that this is a normal compromise.
What arguments are convincing? Or they are right? How can the practice of using the controller in the view could affect a project on the long run?
