To my limited Flex knowledge, I thought separate state for each submodule would be the best way to go.
2. I have many self coded components which represents these submodules. And once the user spikes or save a whole submodule, Yes, I want to destroy them and recreate them again for the new workflow.
3. This question is vague (I think you also never understood what you meant to say). Yes, I can write my own reset method, but all I want to do, is to call the creationComplete() method again to re-populate the data in the screen. That is the only thing I want to know in this post. Now if I knew how to do that, I would have written a "How-to" tech-blog instead of asking it here.
But then, I am not sure, what exactly you meant when you say "lumps your entire application into one component". Are you talking about the compiled output? In the flex project I have only one application Login.mxml and so I have Login.html and Login.swf file only for this project. Will that be a problem?
I should be return back to the base state, from where I can again resume selecting any submodule. Now I am able to track the spike event and clean up all the beans containing data which I populated when the application started. But in this second round , the creationComplete() methods are not doing anything. So I am curious to know of ways to re-invoke the init() method to re-populate the beans. My init() merthods contains the logic to populate data to be displayed in the screen.
