I think there is a problem with repeaters and custom components. Please consider the following code:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; xmlns:local="*"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ [Bindable] private var dp:Array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]; ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Repeater id="rp" dataProvider="{dp}"> <local:VB> <mx:Button height="49" width="50" label="{String(rp.currentItem)}" /> </local:VB> </mx:Repeater> </mx:Application> Where The VB is a custom component extending a VBox: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <VBox xmlns="lib.tx.*" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="100" height="100"> </VBox> But if you compile and run this code it fails with the error "TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert mx.controls::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to Array." One interesting point is if you replace the {String(rp.currentItem)} binding in the button with some static string it works: <mx:Button height="49" width="50" label="tryit" /> So there's a problem with the repater.
