Re: External mapping context

I think the mapped context is not initialized in the wdDoInit method. Create your own init method in compA and call it from the wdDoInit of the view of compA.

So you have the call hierarchy like this --> Fire plug of compB --> wDoInit of the view in comA (hook method) --> your own init method in controller of compA. Then you should be able to access the initialized mapped context.

Hope this helps.
