Thanks again Niall. I had already put the code in my Action, as you suggested.
I'm using a DispatchAction with a somewhat large number of methods on it and
now I need to call my new method in several of them, this is why I would have
preferred this code in the reset(), but this way works fine.
regards,
Diego
