Don't know about constructObject2, but init is called for you by UIObject when she's done setting stuff up. You CAN override it in ActionScript, but not MXML.
However, you're better off just have your initialize event call a function in your MXML and do non-GUI related stuff there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "G" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, July 27, 2006 3:25 PM Subject: [flexcoders] constructObject2() vs. init()? (Flex 1.5) Quick question: What is the relationship between constructObject2 and init? The document I found on creating components does not mention constructObject2, but the flex compiler seems not to allow overriding of init() (in an mxml file). But init() does not take parameters. Does one call the other? Are they analogous for different situations? Thanks, Greg __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
