Flex Class Definition File

The class definition file contains information about all instrumented Flex components. This file (or files) provides information about the components that can send events during recording and accept events for replay. The class definition file also includes the definitions for the supported properties.

Silk Test Classic contains several XML files that describe all classes, events, and properties for the common Flex common and specialized controls. Those XML files are located in the <silktest_install_directory>\ng\agent\plugins\com.borland.fastxd.techdomain.flex.agent_<version>\config\automationEnvironment folder.

If you provide your own XML file, you must copy your XML file into this folder. When the agent starts and initializes support for Apache Flex, it reads the contents of this directory.

The XML file has the following basic structure:

 <TypeInformation>
<ClassInfo>
<Implementation />
<Events>
<Event />
...
</Events>
<Properties>
<Property />
...
</Properties>
</ClassInfo>
</TypeInformation>
