I was playing around with the examples that came with Flex, and I'm
encountering something peculiar with RemoteObjectDemo.mxml.
Here is the RemoteObject call:
<mx:RemoteObject id="employeeRO"
source="samples.explorer.EmployeeManager"
showBusyCursor="true" result="empList=event.result" fault="alert
(event.fault.faultstring, 'Error')">
<mx:method name="getList"/>
</mx:RemoteObject>
Notice that the "result" handler simply assigns the return value to a
variable called "empList". Simple enough.
When I try to display "empList.length", it tells me it's an array of
2 elements. Still good.
But when I try to do this:
for (var i=0; i<empList.length; i++) // <----- THIS IS LINE 11
{
}
I get the following errors during compilation:
RemoteObjectDemo.mxml 11 Expected an attribute name[xml]
RemoteObjectDemo.mxml 51 Expected end of
tag 'empList.length'[xml]
RemoteObjectDemo.mxml 52 The input ended before all started
tags were ended. Last tag started was 'mx:Script''[xml]
I am able to do "alert(empList[0].name);" just fine, so the array is
good and I can access all data. But it just doesn't like it when I
use it in a for-loop (!?).
Why is this happening? Does this mean I can't run the array
of objects returned by the RemoteObject call in a loop?
