loading flex components through xml

[theGuru]

How can i load components through xml... whether it should be visible or not.

you could have a property in the XML, like type="label" and then a switch case on the type

switch(data.type)
{
case("label")
var l:Label = new Label();
addChild(l);
break;
case("Canvas")
var c:Canvas = new Canvas();
addChild(c);
break;
}

this requires that you at least know what all the possible components are going to be.
