Creating Flex ActionScript Custom Component extending Button
ActionScript can be used to create custom components. In the example below, a custom button component is created by extending Button class.
MyCustomButton.as
|
package
mycomp
{
import
mx.controls.Button;
public
class
MyCustomButton
extends
Button {
public
function
MyCustomButton() {
super();
label="My
Button";
height=30;
width=100;
}
}
} |
To use this component in mxml file (CustomButtonExample.mxml), set xmlns property to the custom component like xmlns:CompRI="mycomp.*". This indicates that the prefix CompRI will be used to refer any component in mycomp package.
CustomButtonExample.mxml
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="vertical"
xmlns:CompRI="mycomp.*">
<CompRI:MyCustomButton/>
</mx:Application> |
Running the example renders output as below:
