RE: [flexcoders] array of arrays and XML

[Tracy Spratt]

You can loop over the XMLList and build that ArrayCollection.   Alternatively, you could use an XMLListCollection and do: var xlcBills:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection(myXMLBillsList.month.bill) …no loop required.  A labelField spec might be:@name or @Amount.   I don’t do charts yet so you are on your own there.   Tracy   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of jnewport Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 12:13 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] array of arrays and XML   Hoping to figure this out. What I am trying to do is get a result like this (ArrayCollection). public var expenses:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {Expense: "Taxes", Amount: 106976}, {Expense: "Rent", Amount: 147776}, {Expense: "Car", Amount: 79554}, {Expense: "Gas", Amount: 39252}, {Expense: "Food", Amount: 128351} from this XML: <list> <month monthname="Jan-04" income="14000263" average="80052"> <bill name="Taxes" Amount="106976" customers="25670"/> <bill name="Rent" Amount="147776" customers="25670"/> <bill name="Car" Amount="79554" customers="25670"/> <bill name="Gas" Amount="39252" customers="25670"/> <bill name="Food" Amount="128351" customers="25670"/> </month> </list> Then use it to plot data on a piechart. I am pulling the xml in via a httpservice. So I am guessing I need to iterate through the xml and create an arrayCollection of arrays? But I can't figure that out. Then how to use the Expenses:arrayCollection as a piechart dataprovider.
