My assumption was that you were wanting to update the underlying value
stored in your dataProvider - thus fixing the problem with the
rendering. Am I wrong? It looks a bit to me like your code is
correctly rendering what's stored in dataProvider, but clicking on
your checkbox doesn't actually _alter_ what's in dataProvider, which
is where your problem is coming from. And, randomly guessing, I'd
guess that needs to be done in dataProvider.
You say "Already being done as this is an inherited function." with
regards to calling your superclasses version of setValue(). Not sure I
understand how that happens in the code you supplied - inherited
functions aren't automatically called (except in the case of no-arg
constructors). You'd generally need to call:
// overriding function
function myFunction():Void
{
// call parent implementation
super.myFunction();
// do extra stuff here
. . .
}
to make sure your superclass gets a chance to act. But then I don't
know whether your superclass does anything sensible with setValue
either.
Don't really know what your setup is - just making a few guesses, so
may be way off-base!
