Sure!
my list is defined as follows:
<mx:List id="lstData" width="100%" height="100%"
labelField="@name" ></mx:List>
In my component (well, class) i have the following variable:
[Bindable]
public var MyDataList:XMLList = new XMLList();
then when the application loads and i get the instance of the component, i
call the following:
lstData.dataProvider = mycomponent.MyDataList;
everything looks ok so far, right? then then when i receive a proper xml, i
update it all inside the component:
MyDataList = new XML(myxmlstring).children();
theoretically the lstData should somehow receive notification that the
dataProvider has been updated and refresh itself, right? this doesn't seem
to work. Since this doesn't seem to work we're reserved to throwing events
from the component to the list and rebinding the list when that event is
caught by the gui, but the whole thing is pretty cumbersome and i think this
should work automatically.... what are we doing wrong?
Thank you!
