如何在带有UI路由器的控制器中使用URL哈希？

Question

I need to change a scope property for every change in state (or URL hash). I am using ui.router and not ngRoute which is a problem.

I know $location.path() gives me the current hash, but it does not seem to serve the purpose. Below is a controller that I am using:

var myController = myApp.controller("myContoller", 
                                    ["$scope", "$location", 
                                    function ($scope, $location) {
                                        $scope.location = $location.path();
                                    });

The Binding that I bind in my view with $scope.location does not seem to be updated when a state changes. Is there a way I can capture a state change and probably 're-evaluate' the controller script?

A post here: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/1699#issuecomment-11496428 seems to work great for what I want.

Basically, using a $scope.$on("$locationChangeSuccess", function (event) {}); helped.
