Route Resolving + Multiple Controller Combo?

I'm trying to combine 2 concepts and I'm having trouble making them work together. Concept 1: Route resolving. This is easy to explain, I just want to resolve certain models like t

Solution 1:

It's hard to help you when we don't know what the "base controller"'s responsibilities are. For me, the Concept 3 you are looking for is as follows:

$routeProvider
.when("/news", {
templateUrl: "news.html",
controller: "newsCtrl",
resolve: { news: function(Model) { return Model.news.getList(); })
.when("/news/latest", {
templateUrl: "news.html",
controller: "newsLatestCtrl"},
resolve: { newsLatest: function(Model) { return Model.news.getLatest(); });

module.controller('newsCtrl', function($scope, news) { 
    /* common code you want to share */ 
});

module.controller('newsLatestCtrl', function($scope, newsLatest, $controller) {
   // instantiate your "base controller"
   var ctrl = $controller('newsCtrl', {
       "$scope": $scope,
       "news": newsLatest
   });
   // customize and add special code for latest news
});
