Problem with debugging XML in Flex Builder 3 Beta 2
Posted by sharpstyle on October 4, 2007
I probably wasted an hour trying to figure out what was wrong with my XML, and at the end it turned out that Flex Builder is not doing some right when debugging XML nodes. As you can see from the screenshot below, "trace" executed correctly showing me the right value, while Expressions reports an error.
Bottom line — when working with XML use trace() to verify that you are getting the data you want, not Expressions window.

That sucks. Why doesn’t it show in the Expression window? This is horrible.
