Re: [flexcoders] Columns in an extended DataGrid

[Clint Tredway]

I am using another extended grid and I had to use the name space for the columns tag that was used for the grid tag,<view:PrintableDownloadableDataGrid....>    <view:columns>I am not 100% sure why it has to be this way...

            I have a class that extends DataGrid.

If I try and use it with some example columns:
	<view:PrintableDownloadableDataGrid id="printGrid"
		dataProvider="{someData}"	
		downloadUrl="http://some.where/foo.bar"
	 >
 	 	<mx:columns>
	 		<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="itemOne"/>
	 		<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="itemTwo"/>
	 	</mx:columns> 
	 </view:PrintableDownloadableDataGrid>
(so just like it's base class), I get:
src/testPrintableDownloadableDataGrid.mxml(30): Error: Could not resolve 
<mx:columns> to a component implementation.

But if instead I construct an array of DataGridColumns and pass them in by 
hand instead:
				var cols:Array=new Array();
				cols[0]=new DataGridColumn();
				cols[0].dataField="itemOne";
				cols[1]=new DataGridColumn();
				cols[1].dataField="itemTwo";
				printGrid.columns=cols;
it works :-(

What's up, and (for bonus points) why ? Does the compiler perform some special 
magic for the Adobe class' to make the nested syntax work ?
