Rather than setting up some kind of binding mechanism to the view
state, which still may be better (don't know), I'm doing something
like this, in which a Presenter (controller) puts the View in one of
its view states (using a public method defined on the View's
interface), and the parent loops through its child components to set
their view states to match.
// VIEW STATE Setter -- Called by Presenter to change view state for user
public function setViewState(state:String):void
{
//Sets parent's view state
this.currentState = state;
//Parent controls child component view states
// TODO: Make recursive to get through various wrapper
components
var children:Array=this.getChildren();
for (var i:String in children)
{
children[i].currentState = this.currentState;
}
}
Using this technique, the children would have to define the same view
states as the parent.
Is there a cleaner way? Is this unnecessarily processor intensive?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Bruce
