Using AMD, connect throws an error.

JimWharton

I'm attempting to connect to the map's onLoad event:

var map;       require(["esri/map", "esri/SpatialReference", "esri/geometry/Extent", "dojo/_base/connect", "app/populate", "dojo/ready"],         function(Map, SpatialReference, Extent, connect, populate, ready) {           ready(function() {             var initialExtent = new Extent({               xmax: -11241653.995873693,               xmin: -13198441.919973679,               ymax: 5178320.359930991,               ymin: 4453085.835561435,               "spatialReference": {                 "wkid": 102100               }});              map = new Map("mapDiv", {               extent: initialExtent,               basemap: "streets"             });              connect(map, "onLoad", function() {               populate.addPoints();             });           });        });   }

No matter what, I keep getting a JS error:

Uncaught TypeError: Object is not a function. 

I've tried replacing the call to populate.addPoints() with a simple console.log, and still, it errors on "connect". That's a pretty basic Dojo thing, so I'm confused about where the problem is. The examples page shows something nearly identical.

Use connect.connect() instead of connect().

The dojo/_base/connect module is not a single function but rather contains a couple of functions. For more detailed examples, look at the Dojo 1.7(AMD) section here:  https://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.7/dojo/connect.html
