scope function (ScopeAware) is not called for RootContext

[MikeMitterer]

I'm using RootScope to broadcast/register all kind of messages so this is very important for me.

main() {
    applicationFactory().addModule(new SampleModule()).rootContextType(AppController).run(); 
}

@Injectable()
class AppController implements ScopeAware {
    RootScope _rootscope;

    AppController() {
    }

    // never comes
    void set scope(Scope scope) {
        _rootscope = scope.rootScope;
    }
}

Could you possibly use a component in place of the root context ?

[MikeMitterer]

Not really, just tried it but would break all my Apps. For my understanding the RootScope is essential for the rootContext. The documentation says the same: "When a Directive or the root context class implements ScopeAware the scope setter will be called to set the Scope on this component."

BTW: Its the same for Services - there should be a way for a service to inject Scope/RootScope.

You should be able to inject the Scope in the ctor for services.
