I need to have a repeater iterate over an array, displaying an instance of a
custom component for each iteration.
However, for testing, I am simply attempting to output a button with a
static label within the repeater.
Here's the basic code on the repeater:
<mx:ArrayCollection id="configAC" source="{estimate.configArray}"/>
<mx:VBox width="100%" id="configDisplay">
<mx:Repeater dataProvider="{configAC}" id="configRepeater">
<mx:Button label="D'oh" />
</mx:Repeater>
</mx:VBox>
Setting a breakpoint after the array is populated, I can see that:
a) the original array (estimate.configArray) is populated with a single
member, a custom ActionScript object. Length is 1, there is an object of the
correct type at position 0.
b) the array collection with the original array as source (configAC) shows
the same contents.
c) the dataprovider on the repeater, which is the array collection, shows
the correction contents, an AC with a length of 1.
d) the currentItem in the repeater shows the correct object from the AC.
Yet the contents of the repeater, which should just be a simple button, do
not display.
I'm mystified. So I must be missing something simple.
