Ok, it's been one of those days... Perhaps I shouldn't program when I'm ill.
I finally figured out what the heck was going on and want to post this in case someone else runs into it. I'm building an Air application that connected to a CF server. I created a process to pull an XML file with the server information to set up the remote object. This file was populated into the GlobalVars. The problem was the first screen initialized (including the remote object call) before the XML file was read. I stumbled on the answer by accident when I went to see what was in the GlobalVars.instance.strServer variable. Incidentally, why doesn't the debugger see this variable? If I do the following: Private var strTemp:string; strTemp = GlobalVars.instance.strServer I can then watch the variable in the debugger. Anyway, I set the original variable to [Bindable] and my problem went away. It was then I realized that the remote object with the endpoint variable was initialized in a non-configured state. GRR. Thanks for your help anyway, Alex. I learned something new about overloading variables in flex which I'm sure will come in handy later on.

I had to add in the event into the init(evt::Event):void. With all the work, I've got the same issue... It's trying to initialize the remoteobject before it has the required information provided after the login. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alex Harui Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2009 4:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [flexcoders] RE: creationcomplete firing when a component is disabled I assume you mis-typed the first one? There are too many )'s. The params to addEventListener take a method reference, not a call to a method, so addEventListener("bLoggedInChagned", init) is correct. Do you have a function init()? Is it in the same file as this code? Otherwise, you'll need to make it public and get access to it. BTW, the init() must now take an event as its parameter public function init(event:Event):void { // call webservice or something like that } Alex Harui Flex SDK Developer Adobe Systems Inc. <http://www.adobe.com/> Blog: http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui <http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui> -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner <http://www.mailscanner.info/> , and is believed to be clean. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner <http://www.mailscanner.info/> , and is believed to be clean.
