I could be wrong, but I think you are trying to specify data for a
component in xml. The only way I know to do this is to specify a
property of type XML then assign it and pick it apart. Here's a mini-
example:
Test.MXML
<alexButton >
<xmlData>
<mx:XML>
<node name="Barney" />
</mx:XML>
</xmlData>
</alexButton>
alexButton.as
class alexButton extends Button
{
function init()
{
super.init();
label = "foo";
}
var __data:XML;
function get xmlData():XML
{
return __data;
}
function set xmlData(data:XML)
{
__data = data;
invalidateProperties();
}
function commitProperties()
{
if (__data)
{
trace("setting label for " + this + " " +
__data.firstChild.nodeName);
label = __data.firstChild.attributes.name;
}
}
}
In theory you could drop your entire XML structure where my <node
name="Barney"> is and then write more code in commitProperties to
initialize the component.
