RE: [flexcoders] createChild

[Robert Brueckmann]

Manish,   I implemented the creationPolicy=”auto” and my tab navigator is still creating all of the children at load time.  Like I said, I have an empty Tab navigator in the MXML code itself…when the user logs in, I trigger a GetUserApplications event which calls the command class, triggers the delegate class method which returns to the Application component view an array of strings listing all the apps the user has access to which I immediately loop through and create the associated tabs on the navigator and the corresponding components for each tab…I’m guessing the creation policy setting doesn’t apply to children dynamically attached to the navigator component?  If I had the components actually listed in the MXML file, this works but I’m doing this on the fly because one user may only have access to app #1 and #2 whereas another may have all-access…so I need to do this dynamically and it works and my code I had written before your post about deferred instatiation built into the tab navigator still does the trick in the meantime.   Thanks again, Rob   Robert L.
