Hi Alex, thanks for your quick reply! The issue was resolved - just saw that the AS class was instantiated in the related code for creating the windows instead of the MXML. Stupid mistake, sorry for the inconvenience!

Just as a test, try setTimeout and/or click a button that calls that code to prove it really is a timing issue. It could be something else. -Alex On 2/18/16, 7:28 AM, "Weber Jan" <jan.we...@dallmeier.com> wrote: >Hello, > >we have a a project which makes use of the code behind pattern for MXML >and AS files. >The application has an AS class of type s:Window and an MXML file which >is based on that AS class. > >Adding an EventListener "FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE" in the >constructor of the AS Window class and referring from there to elements >which are in the MXML file (which are defined as public vars in the AS >class) results in TypeError #1009 / NullPointer Reference. >I would assume, that when the Window fires its creation complete event, >all children are available for reference. >In the constructor, we have set "creationPolicy" to "all" and also >tried to call "createDeferredContent" and "createChildren" but no luck >with these calls. >Also, no luck with the event "AIREvent.WINDOW_COMPLETE".
