Why does it get complex with nested sets of child components? Why
can't you just use a recursive function?
function doSomethingToAllDescendants(component :
DisplayObjectContainer) : void {
for (var i : int = 0; i < component.numChildren; i++) {
doSomethingToComponent(component.getChildAt(i));
if (component.getChildAt(i) is DisplayObjectContainer)
doSomethingToAllDescendants(DisplayObjectContainer(component.getChildAt(i)));
}
}
Sorry if i left out some curlies or semicolons here.
