Hi Madhavi, The correct way to accessing variables inside components from the main application is by passing the value to the component. So your component should have a public property. And in your main application, after you instantiate your component, your can either set the property like:
overview_obj.responseOverviewXML = this._responseOverviewXML; or bind the variables using BindingUtils. BindingUtils.bindProperty(overview_obj,"responseOverviewXML",this,"_responseOverviewXML"); By this way, your component will stay loosely coupled and can be easily reused. --------------- The quick and dirty way (which I will NOT recommend is)... from your component, you can do this: this.parentDocument._responseOverviewXML or this.parentApplication._responseOverviewXML Although you will be able to access it, your component will become tightly coupled with your application and if you try to use this component elsewhere, it may not work. Try doing it by the first way I mentioned. Happy Coding :) Regards, Venkat On Mar 11, 4:29 am, madhavi chinni <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I want to access the variables in my main flex project mxml file in > other custom components. > Ex: // Variable decleration > for Bindable > [Bindable] > public var _responseOverviewXML:String; > [Bindable] > public var _resultGraphXml:String; > > [Bindable] > public var _rootEntityId:String > > The above are the variable declartions and I have a custom component > called OverviewGraph.I have instanciated the custom component in the > action script of the main mxml file as given below: > var overview_obj:OverviewGraph=new OverviewGraph(); > > Could anyone tell me how can I access the above variables ine the > custom component OverviewGraph? > > Thanks, > Madhavi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Flex India Community" group.
