I'm trying to add a set of custom styles to a component, following the patten in the developers guide, unfortunately it only seems to work if I use a styleName to set the new styles - trying to set them as defaults for the class doesn't.
Take the attached two files, drop them in a directory and compile them. I've tried 2.0.1 hf 1, h3 and 3 beta 2 all with the same result: The first <TestStyleComponent> gets the defaults hard coded into it in classConstruct() rather than those given in the TestStyleComponent style. The second <TestStyleComponent> correctly gets the styles from the .foo style, however. Can anyone see why the first one doesn't work ?
