Error: defineAlreadyDefined

dojo, javascript, requirejs

Solution

In order to use a foreign loader w/ dojo you need to skip the dojo/dojo.js file, which defines the AMD loader. Your require config should have something like:

require({
    packages: [
        {
            name: 'dojo',
            location: 'dojo',
            main:'dojo/main' 
        }
    ]
});

However, the dojo loader is just as good at loading jQuery plugins as requireJS and it comes with a few additional plugins, like `dojo/has`. I'd give serious thought to just using it's loader.

Problem

I get this error: `Error: defineAlreadyDefined`, that only occurs with dojo. index.php ``` <script data-main="app" src="require.js"></script> ``` app.js ``` require({ paths : { dojo : 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.7.1/dojo/dojo' } }); require([ 'dojo' ], function() { //something }); ``` I found a similar question, but didn't help me: When dojo.js loaded via ajax multiple times get Error: defineAlreadyDefined EDIT: I searched and I think the way that i am trying to use requiJS and Dojo is wrong. http://dojotoolkit.org/features/1.6/async-modules Any idea? thanks
