Description

The alloy compiler is generating an addEventListener call on a tabGroup before generating a necessary createTabGroup call. The addEventListener is generated to create the Android menus. I'm pretty sure these were calls were generated in the correct order in Alloy 1.2.0 and possibly 1.2.1. line 48 of ScheduleGroup.js says
    $.__views.ScheduleGroup.addEventListener("open", __alloyId6);
lines 56-61 of SceduleGroup.js says
    $.__views.ScheduleGroup = Ti.UI.createTabGroup({
        tabs: __alloyId7,
        id: "ScheduleGroup",
        activeTabIconTint: "yellow",
        tabsBackgroundSelectedColor: "yellow"
    });
Obviously this is going to crash since $.__views.ScheduleGroup is referenced in line 48 before it is initialized in line 56-61. This XML
<Alloy>
	<TabGroup id="ScheduleGroup" onOpen="doOnOpen" onFocus="doOnFocus" activeTabIconTint="yellow" tabsBackgroundSelectedColor="yellow">
		<Menu id="menu" platform="android">
			<MenuItem id="refreshMenuItem" title="Refresh" onClick="doRefresh" showAsAction="Ti.Android.SHOW_AS_ACTION_IF_ROOM" itemId="1" />
			<MenuItem id="settingsMenuItem" title="Settings" onClick="doSettingsMenuItem" showAsAction="Ti.Android.SHOW_AS_ACTION_IF_ROOM" itemId="0" />
		</Menu>
		<Require src="scheduleTab" />
	</TabGroup>
</Alloy>
generates

    function __alloyId6() {
        $.__views.ScheduleGroup.removeEventListener("open", __alloyId6);

    PR: https://github.com/appcelerator/alloy/pull/245 test apps: * https://github.com/appcelerator/alloy/tree/master/test/apps/testing/ALOY-834 * https://github.com/appcelerator/alloy/tree/master/test/apps/ui/tabgroup Functional tests should be performed on both apps, with iOS and Android, and should be performed on one TiSDK greater than 3.1.0, and one TiSDK less than 3.1.0. Make sure all tests run without error. Additionally, the android tests should be able to launch the Android Menu with the menu button.
