Thank you for your reply, Alex. I tried doing the following with the
SWFLoader:
var lctx: LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
lctx.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
loader.loaderContext = lctx;
loader.load("MyApp.swf");
However, when MyApp loads a runtime CSS SWF, its styles are still not
updating. Both the loading SWF and the MyApp SWF are local files in the
same directory.
I poked around in the StyleManager code and saw that it calls the
styleDeclarationsChanged() method after a CSS SWF has been loaded. It looks
like this:
public function styleDeclarationsChanged():void
{
var sms:Array /* of SystemManager */ =
SystemManagerGlobals.topLevelSystemManagers;
var n:int = sms.length;
for (var i:int = 0; i < n; i++)
{
var sm:SystemManager = SystemManager(sms[i]);
sm.regenerateStyleCache(true);
sm.notifyStyleChangeInChildren(null, true);
}
}
When I stepped through this, I saw that the sms array contains only the
SystemManager for the main application. So I decided to have MyApp
explicitly update its own SystemManager after a CSS SWF is loaded:
systemManager.mx_internal::regenerateStyleCache(true);
systemManager.mx_internal::notifyStyleChangeInChildren (null, true);
This actually got all the styles to update on-screen. So what's not working
right here? Is it related to the application domain or is it something
else?
