Last month I wrote an <mx:RemoteObject id="core" destination="ColdFusion" showBusyCursor="true" >
My Flex code was already running code on creationComplete:
<mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="100%" height="100%" xmlns:views="views.*" creationComplete="init()" >
So I simply updated my init() function:
private var componentroot:String = "";
private function init():void {
componentroot = this.parameters.componentroot;
core.source = componentroot + "components.admin";
}
As I mentioned in the
To this:
"flashvars",'componentroot=secretproject.server.&historyUrl=
history.htm%3F&lconid='+ lc_id + '',
This isn't the final step though. I'm deploying to a site running ColdFusion. I'll eventually change my index.html file to an index.cfm file and use an Application variable for the component root.
So now I have a problem. The this.parameters structure only exists for the core Flex file of an application, not the children.
How can I get my children to also use the value? I'm thinking what I'll do is pass the value from parent to child, since that is relatively easy to do.
I could make the child run code to grab it from the parent, but that is such a pain to do. (More on that later.) I don't want to have to create a custom even just to read a simple value from the parent. (But that may just be me being lazy. :)
