224 Data binding classes (Flash Professional only)
Usage
endPointObj.event
Description
Property; specifies the name of an event, or an array of event names, generated by the
component when data assigned to the bound property changes. When the event occurs, the
binding executes.
The specified event only applies to components that are used as the source of a binding, or as
the destination of a two-way binding. For more information about creating two-way
bindings, see “Binding class (Flash Professional only)” on page 208.
Example
In this example, the text property of one TextInput (src_txt) component is bound to the
same property of another TextInput component (
dest_txt). The binding is executed when
either the
focusOut or enter event is emitted by the src_txt component.
var source = {component:src_txt, property:"text", event:["focusOut",
"enter"]};
var dest = {component:myTextArea, property:"text"};
var newBind = new mx.data.binding.Binding(source, dest);
EndPoint.location
Availability
Flash Player 6 (6.0.79.0).
Edition
Flash MX Professional 2004.
Usage
endPointObj.location
Description
Property; specifies the location of a data field within the property of the component instance.
There are four ways to specify a location: as a string that contains an XPath expression, as a
string that contains an ActionScript path, as an array of strings, or as an object.
XPath expressions can only be used when the data is an XML object. (See Example 1 below.)
For a list of supported XPath expressions, see “Adding bindings using path expressions” in
Using Flash.
