I have traces at the beginning of my 'arrowClick' method which is
linked to the click event of the button. When the mxml file is applied
to the mx:DataGrid cellRenderer...I see all traces. However when I add
the mxml file dynamically, I do not see the trace of my 'arrowClick'
function.
I'm creating my datagrid dynamically from a XML file (mx:model). It
looks like this:
<columns>
<column name="TRIP_STATUS" headerText="Status" width="58"
cellRenderer="com.StatusPicker" />
<column name="VEHICLE_NUM" headerText="Veh" width="40"
editable="false" />
....etc...
</columns>
in which case I'd loop through the model and call:
if(column.cellRenderer != undefined)
{
_dgc.cellRenderer = column.cellRenderer;
}
It renders the component, but the click event doesn't call the method.
Are you using pure ActionScript classes as your cellRenderers or mxml
files? I think I'm missing something when I just add the mxml file in
the code below as if the children are not getting created correctly.
Thanks again for your help.
