I am trying to add a calendar component to my application and am trying to solve it in the following manner. I am using the Cairngorm framework. I created a custom component that extends the TitleWindow. In this component, I have a public variable that I set called id. This is used to extract data from my ModelLocator for a given month called MonthScheduleData. When someone selects a month and a year, I access a mysql database and return all of the schedule information for this given month. This is returned to flex and it is parsed into the MOnthScheduleData which is an array collection (ie each record in the array collection cooresponds to a day of the month (getItemAt(0) = 1st day of the month). Now in my caingorm control, I loop through the selected month and create a custom TitleWindow component and set its ID to the day of the month (which is actually day of month - 1 to coorespond with the 0 based arrayCollection). With each instantiation of these TitleWindows, I now add them to a second arrayCollection on the ModelLocator called MonthComponentData. Here is the question I have, is it possible to build another custom component called CalendarMonth that extends a tileList and add in this MonthComponentData as a dataProvider? What I want is to be able to dynamically change the month and have each individual day components data change, and also I would need the overall calendar component to change.
When I create a component and store many of them in an ArrayCollection, will they be added to the stage in the TileList? If not, is there some way I can get them to be added dynamically so when the month changes, the components are rebuilt and the ArrayCollection that is bound to the calendar will also change. Thanks for any help and direction on this question Don
