Description
Tested with dcb671539286dcc58b7e6ffa6035c647500e699a:
$.widget( "foo.bar", {
widgetEventPrefix: "baz",
...
_someMethod: function() {
...
this._trigger( "event" );
...
},
});
$.widget( "foo.bar", $.foo.bar, {
...
_someOtherMethod: function() {
...
}
...
});
When a widget is declared like this, the widgetEventPrefix is lost when the extension is applied. You can re-add it with an additional
$.widget( "foo.bar", $.foo.bar, {
widgetEventPrefix: "baz"
});
after the declaration of the first extension. Nevertheless, the original should be preserved after the first extension is added, otherwise it's impossible to create optional extensions.

It might also be worth looking at whether other items besides widgetEventPrefix are also lost in the extension process.
