Mihai Chira updated FLEX-35043:
-------------------------------
Description:
See the unit tests in
mx/collections/ListCollectionView_PropertyChangeEvent_Tests.as which are tagged
(in a comment, above the function) with FLEX-35043.
FLEX-34885 invalidated two previous assumptions:
# When calling itemUpdated(item) on a collection with only the first parameter
provided (which developers usually do to signal that some - unspecified -
properties of the item have changed),
ListCollectionView.handlePropertyChangeEvents() would treat that as if the
object has been just introduced to the collection, replacing a null value -
since oldValue was null, and property was also null. (When the "property" value
of the PropertyChangeEvent was null, it was taken to mean that the oldValue -
which was also null - was changed into that item, i.e. the object reference
changed in the collection, not just one of the object's properties.) As such,
it would try to remove that supposedly existing null value from the collection
(and sometimes a null does exist, but shouldn't be removed).
# The assumptions in SF_ORIG_list_events_tester.List_events_collectionKind_move
(which started failing) show that calling itemUpdated(item) does not reposition
the item according to the sorting rules anymore (unless the Sort has a
customCompareFunction).
