[flexcoders] the difference between List.getItemAt and List.getChildAt

2005-04-08 Thread Krzysztof Szlapinski

Hi,

I wonder what is the difference between List.getItemAt() property and 
List.getChildAt() method.

When I create List items with addItem the List.getChildAt() gives me 
undefined value and getItemAt() gives me the correct item.

why?

the two APIs are not intended to be similar, although perhaps the names 
themselves might lead one to think they are related at first glance.

getItemAt() returns the specified item from the list's data provider. 
getChildAt() is inherited from View which is a base class that provides 
containment semantics. so MXML components that can have other MXML 
components within them extend View.
