ALL | Constant |
public static const ALL:String = "all"
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Immediately create all descendants.
Avoid using this creationPolicy
because
it increases the startup time of your application.
There is usually no good reason to create components at startup
which the user cannot see.
If you are using this policy so that you can "push" data into
hidden components at startup, you should instead design your
application so that the data is stored in data variables
and components which are created later "pull" in this data,
via databinding or an initialize
handler.
AUTO | Constant |
public static const AUTO:String = "auto"
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Delay creating some or all descendants until they are needed.
For example, if a navigator container such as a TabNavigator
has this creationPolicy
, it will immediately create
all of its children, plus the descendants of the initially
selected child.
However, it will wait to create the descendants of the other children
until the user navigates to them.
NONE | Constant |
public static const NONE:String = "none"
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Do not create any children.
With this creationPolicy
, it is the developer's
responsibility to programmatically create the children
from the UIComponentDescriptors by calling
createComponentsFromDescriptors()
on the parent container.
QUEUED | Constant |
public static const QUEUED:String = "queued"
Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
Product Version: | Flex 3 |
Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Add the container to a creation queue. Deprecated since Flex 4.0.
