RE: [flexcoders] loading attributes in a flex custom tag
Don't set them in the constructor, implement them as public properties. If variables, make the [Bindable], or use getter/setter methods for full control.

I have a custom component made by myself. I have to asign the values from the tag's attributes to some object when they are being created in the constructor custom component time. The problem is that Flex doesn't load the attributes when it calls the the constructor and therefore I cant constructor the component. I hope you understand.

Re: [flexcoders] loading attributes in a flex custom tag
What about the order? Flex loads randomly the attributes. I have one called autoplay that if it is set in true play a song, but first I need Flex sets the url attribute. How can I manage this?

Re: [flexcoders] loading attributes in a flex custom tag
I make it work overrading this function, but I don' t know why this is the
convenient way.
updateDisplayList
*override* *protected* *function* updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):*void*{
*if*(*this*._autoPlay *this*.source!=*null*){
*this*.play();
}
}
If autoplay is true and source has the info, then play the music.

RE: [flexcoders] loading attributes in a flex custom tag
You normally override commitProperties() when you want to be able to set
properties in any order and do something later after you know all their
values. To ensure that commitProperties() gets called, call
invalidateProperties() in the property setters.
