I am been trying to create VO's that extends ArrayCollection and then
use those in my modelLocator to maintain my VO lists. The reason
being that I presume I could add functionality to these extended
classes down the road without have to retype variables throughout my
application.
For example, I would create:
BookVO
BookListVO
BookListVO would just extend the ArrayCollection class and hold the
list of BookVO's.
And of course in my ModelLocator I would type to BookListVO instead
of ArrayCollection:
public var bookList: BookListVO;
However, I am having problems extending the ArrayCollection class
properly which makes me wonder wether this is even a good idea. Is
there a secret to extending the Array & ArrayCollection classes? OR
am I headed down the wrong path with my thinking.
I also see many people using ICollectionView instead of
ArrayCollection. Should I also implement ICollectionView in the
BookListVO? I am little confused as to when to implement
ICollectionView and when to just work with the ArrayCollection...
the Cairngorm store 2.1 example uses both in the ML?
--------------------------------------------------
public var products : ICollectionView;
...
public var paymentValidators : ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
