Hi The only slight issue with that approach might be the asynchronous nature.. in the Flex world, if we embed something in this way, it's packaged into the SWF and available immediately, and set up during an object's initialisation prior to the "applicationComplete" event. If we do an async load via http, then we're perhaps likely to hit "applicationComplete" prior to loading it all? (Or maybe not, I'll have to look at how that works! I'm guessing we should be waiting for a browser's 'document complete' event before we kick off our initialisation?).
My only other thought on the approach to embed this into the initial JS/HTML file means we would need to update the compiler.. No console output is happening, but when I add breakpoints and trace what's happening, the XML element is being initialised as an empty object, the contents of the 'source' property are ignored and the source isn't found in the generated JS code at all. thanks Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Piotr Zarzycki <piotrzarzyck...@gmail.com> Sent: 09 July 2019 15:00 To: dev@royale.apache.org Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: Support for XML embedded via 'source' attribute Hi Andrew, To me if it is possible it should be a bead which is able to load external file and inject to source. Do you get any kind of console output in the browser ? What will happen if you set full path to source property to that XML file ?
