Swiftmailer extension, why hardcoded \yii\web\View ?

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

To be more specific:

Looking at https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/mail/BaseMailer.php#L140




    use yii\web\View;

    [...]

    protected function createView(array $config)

    {

        if (!array_key_exists('class', $config)) {

            $config['class'] = View::className();

        }

        return Yii::createObject($config);

    }

What is the real reason for doing so ?

I would have expected to use same view component i defined in the configuration, which is something extending \yii\web\View which could easily be retrieved from


Yii::$app->view::className()

which is anyway the default one and would cause the exact behaviors for people not extending the base view class.

P.S:

I know i can use BaseMailer::setView() and BaseMailer::setViewPath() but why should i duplicate my code when i already have set these details in my configuration for the view component ?

Thanks.
