Hi, all.

I'm getting a trouble using 'mx.controls.ComboBox'.
Could you help and give us a correct code.


I got an error 'TypeError: Error #1009' when I clicked a combobox on inactive window. [see stack traces below] So I checked the source code, and I'm afraid that it's a kind of program bug.

We are using a custom ComboBox that extends 'mx.controls.ComboBox' which is made by ourselves. Though the error has occured on the component, it occur in not only our ComboBox, but also 'mx.controls.ComboBox'.

The immediate cause is a variable 'tween' is null (not initialized) at line:1912 of ComboBox.as.

When I clicked the ComboBox, a method 'displayDropdown' is running.
Then a variable 'inTween' get change to 'true' when the process has come to line:1871. And a method 'UIComponentGlobals.layoutManager.validateNow()' is called at line:1877. After that an event 'styleChange' has fired, and 'destroyDropDown' is called from an event handler 'styleChanged' at line:1416

In 'destroyDropDown', a code is calling 'tween.endTween()' after 'inTween' checked, but 'tween' is not initialized yet.

The 'tween' is initializing in a method 'displayDropdown' at line:1890 after calling 'UIComponentGlobals.layoutManager.validateNow()'.
So 'tween' still has been null.

We are thinking the code should be changed from "if (inTweet) " to "if (tween != null && inTween) {" at line:1919.

It's the first time to send to mailing list and I'm not good at English.
Please excuse me if you may not understand or you feel bad with my poor English.
