Hello Flashcoders!
I recently joinde the list and hoped to find the answer to some
questions that bother me, hope they aren't to boring or stupid :-)]
I wanted to ask - how do you handle components in relation to load
orde? I recently developed a combobox that doesn't work with one load
order, but does work with the other, I sisuepc this is happening
because the clips within it are not available when the movie is
loaded in a certain order. What should I do? Establish the linking to
the clips within an onEnterFrame handler instead of the constructor?
For now I initialize my components like this (I do not inherit the
UIComponent):
class MyCombo extends Widget {
function initWidget() { // is a constructor delegate, gets called
only once
// code to init the movie clips forming the parts of a combo
}
}
Can someone point me to a good read on how to handle different load
orders when building components? (ideally I would like my component
to work with both top-down and bottom-up).
Articles on component lifecycle on the Macromedia site are a little,
ehm, incomplete.
