TypeError: Error #1034: IndexChangeEvent when use InfoWindowRenderer with large application

[MarcusFritze]

Hi,

I use a InfoWindowRenderer based on this example:

https://developers.arcgis.com/flex/sample-code/clustering.htm

When I use this in my example project (for testing) this is working without any problems. So I decided to implement this in my large application.

When I implemented this and click on the cluster, the InfoWindow opens, but when I click on the arrows in the InfoWindow the app crashes...

I used the code based on the example above and implemented this in my large application (inside some mx and spark components). The map is also inside a mx.containers.ViewStack. (the ViewStack where the event can not converted from spark to mx IndexChangeEvent)

Unfortunately, I can not submit you my full application source code. But here is the debug output.

Here is the full debug output text:

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert spark.events::IndexChangeEvent@242e4a971 to mx.events.IndexChangedEvent.

  at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()

  at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()

  at mx.core::UIComponent/dispatchEvent()[/Users/justinmclean/Documents/ApacheFlex4.12.0/frameworks/projects/framework/src/mx/core/UIComponent.as:13682]

  at com.esri.ags.components::ContentNavigator/set selectedIndex()

  at com.esri.ags.components::ContentNavigator/next()

  at com.esri.ags.components::ContentNavigator/nextButton_mouseUpHandler()

It seems that a click on the arrow in the InfoWindow dispatches a spark.events::IndexChangeEvent to the InfoWindow and all parent components but the mx.containers.ViewStack (which is a parent of my map) don't understand a spark.events::indexChangeEvent and want a mx.events.IndexChangeEvent.

I think the IndexChangeEvent doesn't have to be dispatched to all the parent components.

Maybe someone can help.

Thanks

when I click the second time on the same cluster or even when I click 2 times on the same marker the app also crashes with:

info: the mentioned mx.containers.ViewStack (event.currentTarget in the first post) is the this.parentDocument.owner from my map component

Related to this issue, I uploaded some files where you can see this error (exactly not the same, but a similar)

PopUpBug.mxml

PopUpBugFenster.mxml

PopUpBug.swf

It's nearly impossible to use this map in a larger business application!!!

When I close the InfoWindow of the Symbol by clicking on the Close-Button of the InfoWindow, I get the following error when I debug my application:

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@16a51a431 to mx.events.CloseEvent.
