I've been trying to get a DataGrid populated from a WebService and having much trouble. I'm wondering if the issue might be namespace issues, but I'm confused by the usage and syntax of namespace from the posts I've found here on that. There is no data in the DataGrid, but it does appear to flicker and slightly resize it self when I call the service so it looks like _something_ is going on. I've bound the service response to an XMLListCollection so I can trace() it and I can see the XML tree that should be displayed in the DataGrid.
Any ideas why it's not working? Would appreciate any help, been banging my head on this for days now. Thanks. Here is the mxml : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.collections.XMLListCollection; import mx.controls.Alert; import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; private namespace ovServices = "http://services.company.com"; use namespace ovServices; [Bindable] public var ordMedList:XMLListCollection; public var ordMedXMLList:XMLList; public function handleOrdMedSearch(event:ResultEvent):void { trace("handling OrdMedSearchResult"); var resultXML:XML = XML(event.result); ordMedXMLList = resultXML.child("OrdMedList"); //trace("ordMedList : " + ordMedList); ordMedList = new XMLListCollection(ordMedXMLList); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:WebService id="ordMedSearchWS" wsdl="http://localhost:8080/OrderViewWeb/services/OrderableMed?wsdl" showBusyCursor="true"> <mx:operation name="searchStartsWith" resultFormat="e4x" result="handleOrdMedSearch(event)"> <mx:request> <searchText>{ordMedSearchText.text}</searchText> </mx:request> </mx:operation> </mx:WebService> <mx:HBox x="10" y="70"> <mx:Label text="Orderable Med Search" /> <mx:TextInput id="ordMedSearchText" width="100"/> <mx:Button label="Search" click="ordMedSearchWS.searchStartsWith.send()"/> <mx:Label /> </mx:HBox> <mx:DataGrid x="10" y="100" id="ordMeds" width="400" dataProvider="{ordMedList}"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Id" dataField="id" width="100"/> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Desc" dataField="desc" /> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:Application> Here is the xml from the trace : <OrdMedList xmlns:ns1="http://services.company.com/" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <ns2:OrdMed xmlns:ns2="http://services.company.com"> <ns2:desc xmlns="http://services.company.com">tylenol</ns2:desc> <ns2:id xmlns="http://services.company.com">7607</ns2:id> </ns2:OrdMed> <ns2:OrdMed xmlns:ns2="http://services.company.com"> <ns2:desc xmlns="http://services.company.com">aspirin</ns2:desc> <ns2:id xmlns="http://services.company.com">7608</ns2:id> </ns2:OrdMed> <ns2:OrdMed xmlns:ns2="http://services.company.com"> <ns2:desc xmlns="http://services.company.com">ibuprofen</ns2:desc> <ns2:id xmlns="http://services.company.com">7609</ns2:id> </ns2:OrdMed> </OrdMedList>
