RE: [flexcoders] Theory and Practice: Mixing AS2.0 in MXML

[Omar Ramos]

I was about to say that. It's besicaly like asp.NET where you have the tag bas view on the html and the code in C# or VB in a code-behind file. I use jimmy's method using the viewHelper because otherwise you wouldhave the mxml file a actionscrip class (code-behind) and the viewHelper also if you would use the framework.   Omar Ramos Technology Manager Itacon Corporation From: Matt Chotin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2005 12:31 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Theory and Practice: Mixing AS2.0 in MXML I’m reading these posts but have no time to respond (nor to any other posts right now), though the discussion is a good one and I don’t have strong opinions either way (taking into account of course that I’m strongly loyal to binding).  Theonly thing I’ll contribute is that I’m gonna refer to Erik’s technique as view-behind in deference to the ASP.NET approach called code-behind (eh, I don’t know how the punctuate it).  I now expect a nickel every time I see view-behind in a flexcoders post J   Carry on, Matt   From: Erik Westra [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2005 10:30 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Theory and Practice: Mixing AS2.0 in MXML   That was my initial approach too, but eventualy it was easier to track bugs and 'mis-references' since i extended the component i was accessing. Now i get an error when i try to reference a textfield that isnt there. Another thing that is a pro for thiskind of approach, is that the mxml file doesnt have to know wich method to call in the helper class.   Greetz Erik     From: Dimitrios Gianninas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: donderdag 3 maart 2005 16:22 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Theory and Practice: Mixing AS2.0 in MXML I tend to put such code in the corresponding ViewHelper class, so every view (MXML file) has a corresponding ViewHelper class. See sample below:   Inboxes.mxml <mx:Box>     ...     <vw:InboxesViewHelper id="inboxesHelper" view="{this}"/>      ...       <mx:List id="inboxList" width="165" height="100%" labelField="name"             vScrollPolicy="auto" change="inboxesHelper.doLoadInbox(inboxList.selectedItem.id)" />        ... </mx:Box>   Jimmy Gianninas Software Developer - Optimal Payments Inc.
