<mx:Button enabled="{COUNT == 5}" />
Also look into propertyChange and PropertyChangeEvent

Subject: [flexcoders] Style question - additional listeners to Bindables
Say I have a variable counting up to 10 and back down to 1. It does
this in a loop, just going from 1 to 10 back down to 1 back up to 10..
The variable is bindable. Let's call it COUNT.
I have a Label that has COUNT as its data source, so the label's text
value goes from 1 up to 10 and back down again.
Now, let's say I have a button that I want to enable whenever the
variable is equal to 5. There is a little more logic around this
behavior and so I don't think it's a flat out dataprovider solution.
What I think I'd like to do is add my own event listener to COUNT and
it would do the logic of checking to see if COUNT's new value == 5 and
if so, enabling the button.
But most of that observer/observable interface seems hidden to me via
the [Bindable] construct. Then my method could do whatever additional
logic I can dream of.
Is there a way to add my own listener methods to [Bindable] variables?
Or is there another standard way of addressing these issues within
the Flex paradigm?
Thanks much -
cris.
