aharui commented on issue #343: Question : IS there a way to embed third party components within a Royale app URL: https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/issues/343#issuecomment-437638929 First a side-comment: I'm sure you have finished your port to HTML/JS, but keep in mind that with Royale you can develop your JS code in AS and gain the benefits of strict type-checking at compile-time. OK, so I thinK i now understand the markup you showed above. If you add Event metadata like in Flex to the AS class that represents your component, then the Royale compiler will set up the call to addEventListener and bind 'this' to the appropriate object. You'll see that most Royale components have Event metadata on them. Ace doesn't, but MaterialDesignLite does. In the Ace example, Ace is the object set up by loading the JS code for the Ace Editor. I don't think anyone has tried using an unwrapped JS component in Royale. It is theoretically possible and I and hopefully others would be willing to help make it work. The reasons we've wrapped everything so far is to avoid touching the 3rd-party code since we don't control the source for it. Similar to Flex and IUIComponent/IFlexDisplayObject, all Royale UI widgets must implement IUIBase. So if you are willing to modify your code or subclass your JS grid to implement IUIBase, then you have a shot at making it work. And you may need to add getter/setters, and metadata. And then you may expose some bugs we have where we are assuming UIBase instead of IUIBase, but those are things we want to find and fix. Fundamentally, Royale is less of a framework and more of a workflow for integrating existing chunks of JS. We have some required contracts like IUIBase so we have a common way to size and position UI widgets from different providers, but otherwise, we are trying to have few "must haves".
