No, the Repeater is not a container; you will need to place a
repeater object within a container (I used VBox in the sample, but
any container should do).
You can use createClassObject() to create child objects at runtime
in AS. MovieClip.attachMovie() should be there as well, although I
can't remember ever seeing it used in a Flex app. Typically,
you'll
see createClassObject() used in custom controls that extend an
existing class, or for specific applications where child objects
need to be created dynamically in actionscript as opposed to mxml.
Hope that helps!

yes i have the variables in my component file
and also the xml and component mxml is available to mail
application I could import one instance of custom component
just the information on repeater component(which in the hirarchy

container class ..am i right? ) was missing
my problem is solved
but just asking for curiosity that
can we have run time asset assembling in flex as we do
attachmovie() or creatClassobject() in flash -actionscript
Thanks once again

Hello,
You could use a Model tag for accessing the xml within your
app,
and
a Repeater tag to loop through the items and pass their values
to
your custom component. I'm assuming your component has
variables
for the category, notes, and date_day xml fields, so code would
be
something like the following (Flex 1.5, but should be very
similar
in 2.0). Make sure your app can find the xml file and
CustomComponent.mxml (or whatever you chose to name your custom
component).
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml
width=100% height=100%
mx:Model id=xmlFromFile source=xml_file.xml/
mx:VBox height=100% width=100%
mx:Repeater
id=rp
dataProvider={xmlFromFile.dailly_learning}
CustomComponent
category={rp.currentItem.category}
notes={rp.currentItem.notes}
date_day={rp.currentItem.date_day} /
