Hi, What is the appropriate approach to compile the Flex (3) ActionScript sources? Actually, my original problem is the following: I need to emphasize specific days in a DateChooser control.
Alas, as of Flex 3.0.0, the DateChooser control does not offer this functionality. Furthermore, the DateChooser control makes usage of unsupported API/support classes such as mx.controls.CalendarLayout through the use of private members/mx_internal namespace. Consequently, I can hardly make use of these classes (since they don't apply for the OOP open/closed principle) and I need another way to achieve my goal. As a workaround, I found that I could create alternate implementations of the DateChooser/CalendarLayout classes, mainly by copying the existing ones and modifying the appropriate methods. Then I started to rename DateChooser/CalendarLayout to MyDateChooser/MyCalendarLayout and replacing names (s/DateChooser/MyDateChooser/ & s/CalendarLayout/MyCalendarLayout/) ; I even copied the entire frameworks\projects\framework\src directory (from the Flex 3 SDK) to my build path. The problem with this approach is that my implementation seems somehow incomplete and is missing some graphical data (invisible buttons, wrong colors, wrong size) when added to the project. Any hint on how I could gain correct graphics from my implementation? Or is there a better way to achieve my DateChooser customization? Thanks, Regards -- Fiouz
