Good Morning,
It works, you just need to make dataBinding:
HTTPService result --> Repeater dateprovider
Sample code:
<mx:HTTPService id="dataModel".... />
<mx:Tile id="myTile">
<mx:Repeater id="items" dataProvider="{dataModel.result}">
<custom:MyComponent dataObject="{items.currentItem}"/>
</mx:Repeater>
</mx:Tile>
Few notes:
1. Don't forget to call .send() method on your HTTPService object, so
it will start loading data.
2. In the Repeater dataprovider in sample code we have
{dataModel.result}, if you have additional tags in the data that you
load, you just need to type it.... for example
{dataModel.result.items}
Best regards
Stanislav
