My first foray into Flex...by hand. At this time I can only afford development tools in the Eclipse price range. Anyone know of a good (=free) plugin?
Application lifecycle intrigues me, and for Flex it can be a little tricky.Here's a riddle! Can you guess the output of the following: (no fair if you are a Flex expert):
<mx:Application name="##" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Label text="before any scripts"/>
<mx:Script>
import mx.controls.Label;
[Bindable] private static var cc:int = 0;
private var label1:Label = new Label();
private var label2:Label = new Label();
private var label3:Label = new Label();
private var label4:Label = new Label();
[Bindable] private var bounded1:String = ""+(++cc);
[Bindable] private var bounded2:String = "";
</mx:Script>
<mx:initialize>
bounded2 = ""+(++cc);
label1.text = "One";
addChild(label1);
buildGui();
label5.text = "set from inside";
</mx:initialize>
<mx:Script>
private function buildGui():void {
label2.text = "Two";
addChild(label2);
}
override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();
label4.text = "Four";
addChild(label4);
}
</mx:Script>
<mx:creationComplete>
label3.text = "Three";
addChild(label3);
</mx:creationComplete>
<mx:Label text="still gets added ahead of any in the script"/>
<mx:Label id="label5"/>
<mx:Label text="{cc}"/>
<mx:Label text="{bounded1}"/>
<mx:Label text="{bounded2}"/>
</mx:Application>
I will post the answer just as soon as I figure out how to get a .swf to display on this blog.
