I've got a datagrid component which I'm using to display the most recent documents from an XML file. It's an XMLListCollection. I think.
I've worked out how to do the sort()/refresh() stuff on it, and that's working as expected. However, there's the potential for there to be in excess of 1000 documents references in the XML file. I'd like to limit the xmllistcollection I use for "my recent documents" to a set number - I'm just unsure of the syntax. I tried iterating through the XMLListCollection with a for i ++ loop, starting 'i' at the number I wanted - and then removedItemsAt(i) - but that appears to have affected the other XMLListCollection I use, of the same XMLList - to search all of the documents. So instead of getting back a lot of results, in my other datagrid component based on search, I only get back a maximum of whatever I set 'i' to in the for loop on the recent documents. So - how do I limit my results, and how do I interact with XMLListCollections properly so that I don't change the loaded XMLList underneath, that's referenced in other XMLListCollections? Your help in this regard - my fellow flex monkeys, would be greatly appreciated. If I check mail-archive in a month, and see that this, like many useful questions posed on this list, received no replies, I'll feel quite despondent. True story.
