Getting the order object from observer issue in Magento 1

Question

Is there a way to get the order object from this event

controller_action_postdispatch_checkout_onepage_saveOrder

Apparently it doesn't know about the order by using this: $observer->getEvent()->getOrder() .I know I could use the save order after or before event, but I would like to use that event . Is there a way to get the order object from that event ?

Thank you !

You can get order object on controller_action_postdispatch_checkout_onepage_saveorder event by like this,

$order = Mage::registry('hss_order');

You can find the usage of this event in below location,

app\code\core\Mage\Paypal\etc\config.xml

and

app\code\core\Mage\Paypal\Model\Observer.php in setResponseAfterSaveOrder method
