[flexcoders] Bug in "Using the XMLListCollection class" Example and the Fix

[Arul]

Any one tried this example?   Flex 2 Developer's Guide > Building User Interfaces for Flex Applications > Using Data Providers and Collections > Using hierarchical data providers > Using an XML data provider   http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00000513.html     "Using the XMLListCollection class" example has a serious problem, when you delete an item in the List, if it is a leaf node in the Tree it gets deleted too   This is happening because of cross references that exist  (we are directly adding the node to List which still has references to myData, the tree dataProvider)   Solution to this problem is simple, we need to make a copy to add to the list, then everything will be all right   we just need to change the doTreeSelect function as follows           // Add the item selected in the Tree to the List XMLList data provider.         private function doTreeSelect():void         {             if (prodTree.selectedItem)                 listDP.addItem(prodTree.selectedItem.copy());         }   I've attached the bug fixed MXML as well   Regards, Arul   Adobe Community Expert http://www.shockwave-india.com/blog   __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!
