How to get view object from control method

Hello Experts,

I have the following scenario:

1) A button is defined in view

2) An event handler is attached to the button ('onSubmit').

How can I get the view object from the onSubmit function?

this.getView() won't work because this is not the controller.

p.s

I can always get the view by sap.ui.getCore().byId("viewid") - but I don't want to use a constant name

Regards,

Omri
