[AS3] Datagrid limit

[ronaldhutasuhut]

I'm trying to add more than 20.000 item (.addItem) into a DataGrid with AS 3,
it always ended with an error.

Does anyone know what is the limit of a DataGrid,
how many row ( max. item) we can add into a DataGrid?


Thank you!

I do not see anywhere in the documentation of a limit, so I'm not quite sure. Please post the error message you are receiving.

Did you by chance test your program with smaller amounts of items that are being added to your DataGrid?

There's no Error Message,
the movie just keep playing frame to frame continuously.

I have 20,736 items (rows). When I divide them into 6 data grids, it works although I have to wait more than 30 second before the movie start.

I would imagine Flash just isn't powerful enough to preform the operation you desire. I have never used such a large amount of rows on a DataGrid, so I'm no expert on this.

Here's a radical idea; add each row using a Timer, and trace each row as it is added to the DataGrid. Make the interval short, so it ticks quickly, but not fast enough to crash your program. I wonder where/if it will stop prematurely. It's worth a try since I imagine you do not want multiple DataGrids to hold you data.
