Hello, we are giving the first steps on defining a workflow with designers for integrating Flash CS3 content on our Flex 2 applications, using the Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3 on labs (http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Component_Kit_for_Flash_CS3).
I have made a test case where we simply have on Flash CS3 one movieclip draggable that updates a public variable on the exported class with it's current x position, when dragged. Then, I have successfully imported the generated SWC to Flex 2, as you can see on http://www.riapt.org/opensource/FlashIntegration_Bindable/FlashIntegration_Bindable.html (view source enabled, and the zip file has the Flash CS3 source code). What i want to achieve can be easily understand with the code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" xmlns:local="*" backgroundColor="0xFFFFFF" viewSourceURL="srcview/index.html"> <mx:Text x="10" y="10" text="{flashscroller.posx}"/> <local:FlashScroller id="flashscroller" x="10" y="100"/> </mx:Application> I want to bind the text on my TextBox to the posx public var on FlashScroller.as (see the fla.zip inside the source). The first time i tried this, obviously Flex complained that flashscroller.posx wasn't bindable. Ok, so i tried in Flash CS3 to add the [Bindable] metadata to the posx variable. And it didn't complain. But it also didn't work: now neither Flash CS3 or Flex 2 compilers give errors, but the code don't work, since the textbox isn't properly update. I guess i can't use [Bindable] on Flash CS3 content, but it would be important to recreate the feature to allow better integration between flash and flex. Is there a solution to this? Maybe recreate in AS3 what the [Bindable] does behind curtains? Thanks, João Saleiro
