You're not supposed to create and add children in the constructor. Do it in
createChildren, like this:
protected override function createChildren():void
{
super.createChildren();
if ( my_txt == null)
{
my_txt = new TextInput();
addChild ( my_txt );
}
}

Subject: [flexcoders] addChild() in constructor?
As far as I understand, now I can work with superclass view directly
from constructor of inherited class after super() call?
public class A extends Box {
function A() {
addChild(new TextInput()); // causes exception
}
}
public class B extends A {
function B() {
super();
addChild(new TextInput()); // works correctly
}
}
Is this behaviour is okay and could be used by developers?
Sergey.
