InheritanceListData Inheritance BaseListData

The ListData class defines the data type of the listData property implemented by drop-in item renderers or drop-in item editors for the List control. All drop-in item renderers and drop-in item editors must implement the IDropInListItemRenderer interface, which defines the listData property.

While the properties of this class are writable, you should consider them to be read only. They are initialized by the List class, and read by an item renderer or item editor. Changing these values can lead to unexpected results.

Property detail
iconproperty
public var icon:Class

A Class representing the icon for the item in the List control computed from the list class's itemToIcon() method

labelFieldproperty 
public var labelField:String

The value of the labelField property in the list class. This is the value normally used to calculate which property should be taken from the item in the data provider for the text displayed in the item renderer, but is also used by DateField and other components to indicate which field to take from the data provider item that contains a Date or other non-text property.

For example, if a data provider item contains a "hiredDate" property, the labelField property can be set to "hiredDate" and the itemRenderer property can be set to DateField. The DateField control then uses the hiredDate property.
