Question

I am currently developing a mobile application using the latest version of Flash Builder and I need to create a Global ArrayCollection to store information in that is pulled from a local DB. I can pull back the data from the DB fine however I cannot seem to access the Global variable when I try. I have the follng .as file called “Model.as” which is located in a folder called valueObjects and that file contains the following code:

package valueObjects
{
    import flash.data.SQLConnection;

    import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;

    public class Model
    {
        public var ids:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();

        public function Model()
        {
        }
    }
}

Now I want to start populating this ArrayCollection with the info from the database so i import the class into the Default Package mxml doc which will be loaded up first when the app starts by using:

import valueObjects.Model;

Then in a private function I try to access the ids ArrayCollection and populate it however I get the following error:

-1120: Access of undefined property ids.
-Access of undefined property ids

Can anyone please help with this?? Thanks

Answer 1

Or easiest way is make array static.

public static var ids:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();

but for this case is Singleton way better.
