Hi, Application class is a singleton class and it has a static property named "application", that's where reference of Application instance is stored.
So mx.core.Application.application would always point to main application.... -abdul -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Doodi, Hari - BLS CTR Sent: Friday, June 24, 2005 8:08 PM To: 'flexcoders@yahoogroups.com' Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Referencing application object in an mxml component Hi Abdul, Thanks for the response. You mean I don't have to declare a var of type Application in mxml component And no need to assign {this} to app in application mxml ? If not then how the application reference maintained between application mxml and component mxml? It is something implicitly managed by Flash player?? By the Way, I changed my code accordingly with your suggestion and it did work perfectly. Thanks again. Thanks!

Also I have application mxml in which I am using MyTabNavigator called tabNavigation.mxml. Now I want to know how to access functions implemented in tabNavigation.mxml from MyTabNavigation.mxml. I tried a methodology mentioned in the Flex help system as below but did not work. Please help . <!--- MyTabNavigator.mxml --> var app:tabNivigation: . . . private function alertHandler(...) { . . . app.application.saveData(); // saveData is implemented in tabNavigation.mxml application . ........ } <!-tabNavigation.mxml --> ... <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ function saveData() { Alert.show("SaveData will be called",'Save Data'); } ]]> </mx:Script> ... <local:MyTabNavigator id="dataTabNav" width="672" height="407" marginTop="1" borderColor="#9900FF" borderStyle="solid" change="tabChanging(event.target.selectedIndex)" app="{this}"> When I run the application( tabNavigation.mxml) I did not get the alert from saveData() function. That means application method is not activated from mxml component. Thanks in advance. Thanks!
