B.1. Chapter 1 Exercise

This simple exercise asked you to create a new application and add some components. To create this sample, I simply created a new application within Flex Builder 3, switched to Design view, and added some components. Listing B-1 shows what I came up with. Figure B-1 shows the results.

Example B-1. The solution for the Chapter 1 Exercise
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
    layout="absolute">
    <!--
    Create a new AIR application within Flex Builder,
    switch to Design view and drag a few components onto
    the workspace and run the application.
    -->
    <mx:Button x="123" y="75" label="Button"/>
    <mx:CheckBox x="283" y="131" label="Checkbox"/>
    <mx:DateChooser x="45" y="116"/>
    <mx:NumericStepper x="283" y="230"/>
    <mx:RadioButton x="237" y="56" label="Radio"/>

</mx:WindowedApplication>
