Constructor Detail
UIComponentAutomationImpl()Constructor
public function UIComponentAutomationImpl(obj:UIComponent)

Constructor.

Parameters
obj:UIComponent — UIComponent object to be automated.
Method Detail
addLayoutCompleteSynchronization()method
protected function addLayoutCompleteSynchronization():void

Sets up a automation synchronization with layout manager update complete event. When certain actions are being replayed automation needs to wait before it can replay the next event. This wait is required to allow the framework to complete actions requested by the component. Normally a layout manager update complte event signals end of all updates. This method adds syncrhonization which gets signaled as complete when update_complete event is received.

componentInitialized()method 
protected function componentInitialized():void

Method which gets called after the component has been initialized. This can be used to access any sub-components and act on them.

init()method 
public static function init(root:DisplayObject):void

Registers the delegate class for a component class with automation manager.

Parameters

root:DisplayObject — DisplayObject object representing the application root.
