A question on capturing the button click event in ANOTHER mxml file

问题

this seems to be an interesting question to be discovered in Flex.

I registered a very simple button event listener in A.mxml:

<mx:Script><![CDATA[

import mx.controls.Alert;
public function Handler():void
    {
      Alert.show('click event occured');
    }
]]></mx:Script>


<mx:Button label="{resourceManager.getString('resources', 'button.startLab')}" 
        id="nextStepButton" click="Handler()" />

It works fine when clicking the button everytime. Now I want to have something interesting,that is,I want to capture this buttonClick Event in another mxml file,say B.mxml and do something in B.mxml instead of A.

I am bit stuck on this,hope you could give me some hint and help,thanks a lot.

回答1:

There are a number of approaches to this problem. The simplest (and least object-oriented) is to have A be aware of B, or vice versa. In that case you can just add a listener. In B you could say a.nextStepButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myHandler), or in A you could do this.nextStepButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, b.myHandler). (When one component is instantiated, you have to set a reference to it on the other component.)

One step better would be to dispatch a custom event that bubbles, with one of the components still aware of the other. In B: a.addEventListener(CustomNavigationEvent.NEXT_CLICK, myHandler), or in A: b.addEventListener(CustomNavigationEvent.NEXT_CLICK, myHandler).

Taking it further, you could just let the event bubble to the top (the SystemManager) and add your listener to the SystemManager. This way B is not aware of A at all. In B: this.systemManager.addEventListener(CustomNavigationEvent.NEXT_CLICK, myHandler).

Taking it even further, you can implement your own version of an event broadcaster, which is just a third object that is accessible by any component, usually implemented as a singleton, that takes listener registrations and accepts event dispatches, then broadcasts that event to registered listeners.

Hope that helps.

EDIT: Here's some code for doing it the first way:

In A.mxml:

<?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" creationComplete="onCreationComplete(event)">
    <fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import mx.events.FlexEvent;

            public var b:B;

            private function onCreationComplete(e:FlexEvent):void {
                // Note that you have to have a public onClick handler in B
                this.myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, b.onClick);
            }
        ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <s:Button id="myButton"/>
</s:Group>

You need to make A aware of B in the container that declares instances of both A and B:

MXML:

<mypackage:A id="aComponent" b="bComponent"/>
<mypackage:B id="bComponent"/>

ActionScript equivalent:

        var aComponent:A = new A();
        var bComponent:B = new B();
        aComponent.b = bComponent;
