When attempting to assign a dataProvider to a DataGrid...
reportProjects.dataProvider = rptProjects;
I get the following error...
Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
The only difference between this DataGrid, and one that is properly
instantiated is that its on a Canvas that's not visible when the
application starts. The statement happens after creationComplete, which
I thought was the event that got fired after all objects were created.
creationComplete() > initApp() > loadProjects() > {problem statement}
Condensed version of design
<mx:ViewStack>
<mx:Canvas label="Data">
...
</mx:Canvas>
<mx:Canvas label="Reports">
...
<mx:DataGrid id="reportProjects">
...
</mx:DataGrid>
</mx:Canvas>
</mx:ViewStack
I can't figure out why this DataGrid isn't getting instantiated, or how
to ensure it does. Any help is greatly appreciated.
