[flexcoders] Creation events and view stack children

[Michael Herron]

Hi all, a quick question about view stack instantiation:   If I have a view stack, creation policy auto, with two children:                                     <mx:ViewStack creationPolicy=”auto”>                                     <components:ChildOne /> <components:ChildTwo />                         </mx:ViewStack>                           ChildOne.mxml:                         <mx:HBox creationComplete=”trace(‘child one created’)”>                                       <!-- stuff in here -->                         </mx:HBox>                           ChildTwo.mxml:                         <mx:HBox creationComplete=”trace(‘child two created’)”>                                       <!-- stuff in here -->                         </mx:HBox>   In what order are the creationComplete events fired for the children? I seem to be witnessing behaviour where the creation complete events are being fired immediately, when the view stack is instantiated, but the actual components within the children are not being instantiated until the selected index of the view is changed (as you would expect from creationPolicy=”all”). Does this sound reasonable? Has anyone experienced this kind of behaviour? I was under the impression that the creationComplete event for the top-level components themselves would not fire until the view stack index changed.   (Apologies for the lack of a complete code sample (spread across several files I’m afraid), but hopefully what I’ve said is enough to explain the problem)   Cheers, Mike. -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com YAHOO!
