Encapsulating a custom flex component?   Topic List   < Prev Topic  |  Next Topic >
Reply | Forward < Prev Message  | 
Newbish question... but after searching on google, I can't get a concise answer.

Is it possible to encapsulate (mark private) components within a Flex component?

So I have custom MXML component (ResourcesTree) that has a Tree inside of it. I
don't want
the Tree to directly be available outside the ResourcesTree Component.

Any input?

I'm not sure whether either of these would serve your purposes, but I believe there are two ways to have a private property within an MXML-coded component. ...

In thinking about this a little more, I have come up with a third way of achieving a private sub-component within an MXML-based component. Like the others,...

Damn, why didn't I think of that? I'd been trying to think of ways to do that for ages a few months ago, trying to clean up the ctrl-space on some APIs :) ...

Well, unfortunately, I did some further testing, and it turns out not to be as complete a solution as it initially appears to be. Here's a comment that I just...
