Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a webservice that returns plain XML:

<RootTag>
<ItemTag (attributes...) />
<ItemTag (attributes...) />
<ItemTag (attributes...) />
....
</RootTag>

2. Add a <s:WebService ... > in Flex
3. Add an <s:operation resultFormat="object" makeObjectsBindable="true" ... />
4. Call the operation
5. Bind to the returned ArrayCollection

Actual Results:

runtime issues warning:
unable to bind to property '(propertyname)' on class 'mx.rpc.xml::SimpleContent' (class is not an IEventDispatcher)

Expected Results:
no warning

Workaround (if any):

[Bindable]
protected var bindableCollection:ArrayCollection;

// manually insert ObjectProxies
protected function handleWebserviceResult(event:ResultEvent):void {
var items:ArrayCollection = event.result.RootTag.ItemTag;
for(var i:int=0;i<items.length;i++)

{ items[i] = new ObjectProxy(items[i]); }

bindableCollection = items;
}
