Some tie-in to Flex since Flex is a server-side compiler. The server director and I were discussing how Spring works with DI, and I thought that'd be cool to implement in Flex/Flash via our own ServiceLocator/Services. Looking at the bean.xml files, they looked really easy to parse with

If you use initialize, it'll fire when the component is created, but it's children won't be created yet, thus, childrenCreated is a good event. It'll only fire when it's children are done being created, and at that time, you can then start scripting it, much like initialize. The cool

Yup! It is created, just not it's children; that's why initialize fires, but you end up with the same problem. "childrenCreated is the new onLoad"... well, sort of. - Original Message - From: Michael Herron To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2005 8:22 AM

creationComplete is a glorified "draw" event. Just because something is drawn doesn't mean it's children are; remember, it could have the creationPolicy of it set to queued, which means it'd never fire a childrenCreated in theory, hehe! - Original Message - From: Michael Herron
