I am trying to add a navigation component with a button bar in it that controls the view stack of the main application. Here is what I have so far for the main application's code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
xmlns:comps="comps.*" minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
<fx:Declarations>
<!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
</fx:Declarations>
<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[Bindable]
public var myViewStack:ViewStack;;
]]>
</fx:Script>
<fx:Binding source="lgViewStack" destination="myViewStack"/>
<comps:viewControl id="myControl" width="935" horizontalCenter="0" top="5" height="134"/>
<mx:ViewStack id="lgViewStack" width="935" height="474" left="10" verticalCenter="66">
<s:NavigatorContent label="View 1" width="100%" height="100%" id="view1">
<s:Panel id="firstPanel" title="First Panel" width="250" height="200" horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0" >
</s:Panel>
</s:NavigatorContent>
<s:NavigatorContent label="View 2" width="100%" height="100%" id="view2">
<s:Panel id="secondView" title="Second View" width="250" height="200" horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0" >
</s:Panel>
</s:NavigatorContent>
</mx:ViewStack>
</s:Application>
And the component code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Group xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" width="400" height="300">
<fx:Declarations>
<!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
</fx:Declarations>
<s:ButtonBar x="170" y="10" width="58" dataProvider="{myViewStack}"/>
</s:Group>
I receive a compile error from the component: Access of undefined property myViewStack. Am I referencing the variable myViewStack incorrectly? I am still trying to understand how bindings work.
