[flexcoders] Code behind- do you use it?

I am undecided as to whether or not I want to use the code behind method for my MXML files and figured I would see what others are doing. I am currently just using Script blocks at the top of my files to do event handling, initialization, etc but some of them are getting pretty big. So what are

Re: [flexcoders] Code behind- do you use it?

I've been thinking about asking the same question, all of the samples out there seem to embed the actionscript in MXML, however the code behind scenario seems more like a best practice approach. Personally, I use code behind everywhere except for procedural initialization code in my

Re: [flexcoders] Code behind- do you use it?

So what are others doing? No AS in your MXML files, no code behind, a mixture of the two? I use it practically 100% of the time. If the mxml file only has a small amount of code and is unlikely to expand then its probably overkill but for anything with more than a couple of methods i use it.

Re: [flexcoders] Code behind- do you use it?

I highly recommend it as well. As a simple example, I might want to enhance the List component to autoscroll to the selected item upon selection. Simply create a class 'AutoscrollList.as' that you can then use that class in your MXML ui:AutoscrollList /. (code included below) Like others, I

Re: [flexcoders] Code behind- do you use it?

From an OOP point of view, would you really create a subclass just to divide the code into smaller pieces? I guess no. Imho it's better practice to extract real classes/objects from mxml files, if possible. Cheers, Ralf. On 1/16/07, Daniel Wabyick [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I highly

Re: [flexcoders] Code behind- do you use it?

Good poont. The example I gave is not exactly describing code-behind. I would use the ui:AutoscrollList / within another VBox (e.g), not as a top element. Nevertheless, I do use code-behinds (using an Actionscript class as the top element of an MXML component) at times, but usually more as an
