I have an approach that might help with the 2.x Tree. It is a subclass of ArrayCollection you can use to suppress ItemPendingErrors which you can get here:
http://www.jvroom.com/NotPendingCollection.as You provide it a source collection and this collection will either be empty or fully populated... it won't throw ItemPendingErrors. You can use it with lazy loaded associations or paged collections but if you use it with paging, the first time someone access an item, it will page in the entire collection (unless you set startIndex/maxIndex as described later). It is still a bit experimental but let me know if you have problems with it as the code is not too complicated. To use it you'd put this between your tree and your filled/associated collection: <!-- the data as it comes from the server... in this case I pass this to fill --> <mx:ArrayCollection id="streamData"/> <!-- a view of the data that does not throw IPEs (NotPendingCollection does not do sorting) --> <NotPendingCollection id="notPendingStreamData" sourceCollection="{streamData}"/> ... <mx:LineChart dataProvider="{notPendingStreamData}"> It also has a startIndex and maxIndex parameters so your collection can expose a sub-region of the paged collection. This allows you to use this more efficiently if the underlying collection is paged. I've done some testing on this using a chart (which also does not handle item pending errors) but haven't tested it with tree. In my sample, I hooked up the start and max index to the visible regions of a data grid and then have the chart display the visible data as you scroll in the grid.

We get item pending errors all over the place. Is this to be expected or should the tree component handle lazy loading like the DataGrid? We are using LCDS with Hibernate so the calls are made internally. If not, what is the proper way to handle Item Pending errors. Thanks for the info. - Kevin
