you could compile with the -keep option to see what is output underneath the
covers.
and then what i think might be the case
pure speculation follows
consider that the mxml gets converted to as. now in mxml you could have
<something event="{a=1}"
or
<something event="function(event,'sdfdsf')"
or...
now if i was to write a converter for something like this i would wrap the
function which invokes whatever the user specified (i am not certain if this
is the case) in order to make my approach as flexible as possiblejpn On Mon, Jul 21, 2008 at 12:18 PM, florian.salihovic < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Instead of waiting for an answer i just ran a lil' test: > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > <mx:Application creationComplete="eventListener(event)" > xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";> > <mx:Script> > <![CDATA[ > import flash.utils.getQualifiedClassName; > import mx.events.FlexEvent; > > private function eventListener(event:Event):void { > trace(getQualifiedClassName(event)+"#"+event.type); > switch(event.type) { > case FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE: > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE); > this.removeEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, > eventListener, false); > this.removeEventListener(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE, > eventListener, false); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE); > break; > case FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE: > this.removeEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, > eventListener, false); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE); > this.addEventListener(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE, eventListener, > false, 0, true); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE); > this.registeredEventListenerTrace(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE); > break; > } > } > private function registeredEventListenerTrace(type:String):void { > trace("\t" + type + " is registered: " + > this.hasEventListener(type)); > } > ]]> > </mx:Script> > </mx:Application> > > I was surprised that the FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE can't be removed.
