RE: [flexcoders] Simple SimpleButton 2nd try

[Battershall, Jeff]

I think you want to add mx.controls.Button which inherits from
UIComponent vs. flash.display.SimpleButton, which does not.  You're
kinda confusing the Flex framework with the Flash Player API.

Please ignore the first post, this has a correction

How do I add the button to the application?
addChild does not seem to be available
this->addChild(

newButton); and addChild(newButton) both produce
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
flash.display::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.core.IUIComponent.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml 
<http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml>" creationComplete="onComplete()">
<mx:Script> <![CDATA[

import flash.display.SimpleButton
public function onComplete():void
{
var newButton:SimpleButton = new SimpleButton();
// add child here
.
}
