Omitting the xmlns attributes in MXML would make MXML not be valid XML. - Gordon Smith, Adobe
-----Original Message----- From: Justin Mclean [mailto:jus...@classsoftware.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2012 12:44 AM To: flex-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Flex and names spaces in MXML Hi, I think that you can define public namespaces in actionscript like so: public namespace fx = "http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009";; public namespace s = "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"; public namespace mx = "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"; Is there any way we can define the common namespaces somewhere (in UIComponent??) so we don't have to define them all the time in MXML? This may become more of an issue as we add a few more name spaces. Ideally it would be nice (I think) to just do this: <s:Application width="100%"> Instead of: <s:Application width="100%" xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"; xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"> Perhaps we have the MXML compiler automatically create these namespaces if they are not defined? (Once it gets donated of course.) Thanks, Justin
