I am using Ruben Swieringa's flip book
(http://www.rubenswieringa.com/blog/flex-book-component-beta) to create
a journal for a project which has a Book class and Page Class and a
really cool goToPage() method. I am using a loop to add Pages based on
an ArrayCollection record (dateAdded) and would like to name the Page
instance the rendered version of the date. Problem is I cannot find
anywhere to name the class based on a dynamical element. I googled all
around for it, but haven't come up with a working solution in the Flex
enviornment. I want to do something like this:
[Bindable] public var entries:ArrayCollection;
...
public function buildBook():void {
for (var i:int = 0; i < entries.length; i ++){
var entries.getItemAt(i).dateAdded:Page = new Page();
...Add content, define styles, etc...
myBook.addChild(e.getItemAt(i).dateAdded);
}
}
The end result would be a page with the id of 21220100345 and I can do
the flip to it using the .goToPage(21220100345)
