I was hoping that turning a query into an array via a result handler
was such a common practice that someone could quickly set me straight
For the record I get compiler errors on this line
public var cities:IList = new
ArrayCollection({mx.utils.ArrayUtil.toArray(result)});
of
Expecting colon before dot
Expecting primary expression before rightbrace
Expecting rightbrace before semicolon
I attempted to what had worked in AS2
private var myObj:Object = result;
private var cities:Array = new Array;
private var i:Number = 0;
for (i=0; i<myObj.length; i++)
{
cities.push({CITY:myObj.getItemAt(i)})
}
and got runtime error Error #1006:
Call attempted on an object that is not a function.
