Having trouble with binding
- by Tam
I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding the binding in Flex. I'm using Cairngorm framework. I have the following component with code like:
[Bindable]
var _model:LalModelLocator = LalModelLocator.getInstance();
....
<s:DataGroup dataProvider="{_model.friendsSearchResults}"
includeIn="find"
itemRenderer="com.lal.renderers.SingleFriendDisplayRenderer">
<s:layout>
<s:TileLayout orientation="columns" requestedColumnCount="2" />
</s:layout> </s:DataGroup>
in the model locator:
[Bindable]
public var friendsSearchResults:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
Inside the item renderer there is a button that calls a command and inside the command results there is a line like this:
model.friendsSearchResults = friendsSearchResults;
Putting break points and stepping through the code I confirmed that this like gets called and the friendsSearchResults gets updated.
To my understanding if I update a bindable variable it should automatically re-render the s:DataGroup which has a dataProvider of that variable.
