mxml

I find it much easier to write MXML classes with embedded Script than trying to make an actionscript file. I was wondering however what kind of overhead there is of using an MXML file - in terms of file size. I'm not especially concerned about performance, but if that is relevant would be interested in any findings. Obviously I'm talking about UI components that have layout. MXML is MUCH easier to visualize and modify but I'm unclear exactly what it compiles down too. I'm hoping there is a negligible difference. If you're going for the same functionality, MXML is not going to make your swf any

I have my custom component and for example few Label. I want to pass to my component value which will be assign to label's id. Code: <fx:Script> <![CDATA[ [Inspectable] [Bindable] public var test:String = "asd"; ]]> </fx:Script> <s:Label id="{test}" text="etc"/> Error: {test} is not a valid identifier Can I even do something like that? No you can't. You have to understand that when you write an mxml component like <s:Group> <s:Label id="myLabel" /> </s:Group> it will generate ActionScript code like public class MyClass extends Group { public var myLabel:Label; } (Mind you, I grossly

I would like to add a custom context menu with line separators, but can't really figure out how. What I need: <mx:List id="treeContextFile" visible="false" width="233" verticalScrollPolicy="off" includeInLayout="false"> <mx:dataProvider> <mx:Array > <mx:String>Open</mx:String> <horizontal line here > <mx:String>Cut</mx:String> <mx:String>Copy</mx:String> <mx:String>Paste</mx:String> <horizontal line here > <mx:String>Rename</mx:String> <mx:String>Delete</mx:String> <horizontal line here > <mx:String>Properties</mx:String> </mx:Array> </mx:dataProvider> </mx:List> Here's a blog with an example

So... I have a URL like www.example.com/stream/ I need to make any request to this url and get Http Rewspons header (like this one: HTTP/1.0 200 OK Content-type: video/x-flv Cache-Control: no-cache I do not need reponse body at all. After I get header need to emmidiatly close connection to that url (so stop to obtain data from it) How to do such thing (I use Flash builder) Aparently, that's possible in AIR (I've never tried it): http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/net/URLStream.html#event:httpResponseStatus The only other way I can think of is using a Socket
