[flexcoders] example combo box in module

example combo box in module

So if I run the sample code for a combo-box as an application it works
fine:

<mx:Application width="100%" height="100%"
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; creationComplete="init()"
cornerRadius="0" borderColor="#ffffff" borderStyle="outset">

         <mx:Script>
         <![CDATA[

         [Bindable]
         public var testingStates: Array = [ {label:"M1",
data:"initOnePhone"},
                                             {label:"M2",
data:"initOnePhone"} ];
         [Bindable]
         public var cards: Array = [ {label:"Visa", data:1},
             {label:"MasterCard", data:2}, {label:"American Express",
data:3} ];

         [Bindable]
         public var bSelectedItem:Object;

         ]]>
         </mx:Script>

         <mx:Panel id="panel"
                 title="OTP Widget"
                 height="292"
                 width="305">
                         <mx:ComboBox dataProvider="{cards}" width="150"
                                      
close="this.bSelectedItem=ComboBox(event.target).selectedItem" x="-1"
y="173"/>

                 <mx:VBox width="250" y="215">
                     <mx:Text  width="200" color="blue" text="Select a
type of credit card."/>
                     <mx:Label text="You selected:
{bSelectedItem.label}"/>
                     <mx:Label text="Data: {bSelectedItem.data}"/>
                 </mx:VBox>
         </mx:Panel>

</mx:Application>

But If I have this code in a <mx:Module> with an outside application
including this module in a <mx:ModuleLoader> I get the following when I
try to select something from the combo box for the first time:

TypeError: Error #1006: getInstance is not a function.
         at mx.core::Singleton$/getInstance()....

Any idea on why this is happening? Thanks,
