AdvancedForm v1.2 update

There was a little bug that affected the AdvancedForm’s isValid property for a certain condition. Thanks to Dustin for finding the bug. I have updated the component to fix the bug. The situation arose when you reset a form after the isValid = true, the reset changes isValid to false but then would set isValid = true after the first validator became valid. It should not do this unless all validators on the page are valid.

Flex Builder - What do the Icons in Variables View mean?

Take a look at a typical Flex Debugging perspective Variables view.
Flex Builder Variables View

There is a lot of images with other symbols on top of them. From red squares, green circles to yellow diamonds with (), C, S etc… icons on top. What do they all mean? Well I am not totally sure myself, but some are obvious.

Flex Builder Variables View Red Square - Red Square
This defines a private variable.

Flex Builder Variables View Green Circle - Green Circle
This defines a public variable.

Flex Builder Variables View Yellow Diamond - Yellow Diamond
This defines a protected variable.

Flex Builder Variables View Orange Like Square Grid - Orange Like Square Grid
This defines a ???? (any one know?) - it defines a package usually but this is used on attributes like x where y in the same object is set to a green circle, making no sense.

Ok now for the overlapping superscript icons.

Flex Builder Variables View C - C icon
This defines a constant variable.

Flex Builder Variables View D - D icon
This defines a dynamic variable.

Flex Builder Variables View Red S - Red S icon
This defines a static variable.

Flex Builder Variables View Getter - Getter icon
This defines that its has a getter.
