RE: [flexcoders] initializing global variables
Well, your parent won't be fully created until its children are, since the children are its data members, so how can the parent be 'completed', w/o its data/members/children being completed first? As for your global vars, have you tried using the initialize handler?

Re: [flexcoders] initializing global variables
Yeah, that's what you want; you want your Application to be initialized after everyone in it is done. As far as global vars, "Singleton is the new _global." As such, if you define them in a Singleton class, all children will have access to them immediately. If you want them as member vars of Application.mxml, yeah, that won't work. - Original Message - From: Clint Modien To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2005 10:58 AM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] initializing global variables The behavior is apparently by default..http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/flex_docs_en/0505.htm On 7/20/05, JesterXL [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is their creationPolicy not set to "all"? - Original Message - From: Clint Modien To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2005 10:12 AM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] initializing global variables Ya i did try to use the initialize handler... but apparently it get's called "after" the initialize handler of my grandchild.Check the link.

RE: [flexcoders] initializing global variables
If you need this thing to be done right at
startup you can consider a static method like weve recommended in the
past to make a faceless object an event dispatcher.
mx:Script
public static var foo:String;
static function initGlobal():Boolean
{
foo = someValue;
return true;
}
private static staticsInited : Boolean =
initGlobal();
/mx:Script
Now you can refer to this property as
MyApplication.foo (note MyApplication is the name of your MXML file).
You can also just use a singleton
somewhere to hold onto your globals, not everything has to hang off of
Application.application.
