Maybe I am missing something or maybe it doesnt support my particular
usage but I couldnt get it to work...
My component is a VBox subclass "MyVBoxPlus", the property is
say "stuff" and its value is say a standard VBox.
i.e on my main form:
<comps:MyVBoxPlus>
<VBox>
lots of things
</VBox>
</comps:MyVBoxPlus>
When I set the DefaultProprty to "stuff" inside MyVBoxPlus.mxml and
run the application it dies saying there are multiple sets of
children defined..
I assume meaning the ones above, plus the ones already in the
MyVBoxPlus.mxml so it seems like the DefaultProperty hasnt been
applied so it thinks the children on the main form are just general
children to add to MyVBoxPlus rather than setting them into
the "stuff" property
Currently I was doing this, and it works:
<comps:MyVBoxPlus>
<comps:stuff>
<VBox>
lots of things
</VBox>
</comps:stuff>
</comps:MyVBoxPlus>
I was just trying to get rid of the extra tag.
Any thoughts?
