Re: [flexcoders] Set menuBar dataProvider per AS

2008-01-09 Thread Max Frigge 
 my bad. The component was already 
created at the time where I assigned the 
eventListener. I shouldn't develop late at night :-)
Sorry for bothering and thanks anyway!

Cheers, Max

Try calling your setUpMenuBar( ) method on the MenuBar's 
creationComplete

event and add menuBarRef.validate Now() after setting the dataProvider

property. validateNow( ) forces the menuBar to do an invalidation pass,

which calls the MenuBar's commitProperties method which is necessary to

get the data wired up to the MenuBar correctly.

Subject: [flexcoders] Set menuBar dataProvider per AS



Hi,



I had a working MenuBar until 

I had to change my application

structure. Now I can't bind the 

dataProvider anymore in the menuBar's

mxml tag. 



So I tried something like this...



[Bindable]

private var menuBarCollection: XMLListCollectio n;



private function setUpMenuBar( event:Event) :void{

  menuBarCollection = new XMLListCollection( menubarList) ;

  menuBarRef.dataProv ider = menuBarCollection;

}



The function is called on the MenuBar's

Initialize event and menuBarList is

a XMLList, that was working fine before.



I also tried to use other events as well as 

things like invalidateNow( )

after I set the dataProvider, but the 

MenuBar doesn't get any items!? 



Any ideas would be appreciated.



Thanks, Max
