Being a Flex newbie, I can only think of one way to solve this dilemma (assuming I ever encounter performance problems at startup):
I thought it was a good idea to implement each HttpService in the Component that displays the retrieved data, which is saved to an application-wide Model, accessible to all Components. One solution would be to centralize all HttpServices in the main application file; they would populate the Model in the same way, but not require the existence of their corresponding Components. I'm sure there are better solutions out there... Thanks, Chris. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Tracy Spratt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Defeat deferred instantiation judiciously, if at all.
