Appcelerator controller appear/disapear methods

I'm pretty new to Appcelerator and was wondering what the listeners for the view life cycle are?

For example, if I wanted to detect the iOS viewWillAppear and viewDidDisappear methods, or Androids OnResume, OnPause methods, then how would I do this the "Appcelerator" way?

I've searched around on the web, but only able to find in the Titanium documentation info about the application state such as Active, Suspended, ect. I need a controller, or window, specific listener to react to.

Thanks!

Titanium abstracts those events for you - so you don't have to worry about writing them for iOS/Android each.

Check out the Titanium.App documentation (http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/api/Titanium.App). You can see what events are available at the app level (of course, each Titanium components has it's own events - but those are at app level).

If I understand your question, the relevant events for you are paused and resumed - when the app goes in the background and then back to foreground.
