to change xml data to ArrayCollection

Question

I have xml file with data as below and i want to convert this into Flex ArrayCollection including the id and name of the tags. I am using httpService to get the file.

data.xml

<data>
    <result month="Jan" value="0.666">
        <info id="jan01Display" name="jhon" age="20" />
  <info id="jan02Display" name="adams" age="24" />
  <info id="jan03Display" name="prasad" age="27" />
    </result>
</data>

Answer 1

Why not return an array collection instead of XML then. Just change the HTTPService and remove the resultFormat="e4x" attribute and then change your result handler to include something like:

var myAC:ArrayCollection = event.result.data.result;

instead of:

var myXML:XML = event.result.data;

I think that should do it for you. If not, post a code example of both your HTTPService and your Result Handler and We'll figure it out for you.
