>                 Key: FLEX-33913
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33913
>             Project: Apache Flex
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: .Unspecified - Framework
>    Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.6 (Release), Adobe Flex SDK 4.1 (Release), Apache Flex 4.11.0
>         Environment: Reproduced with the SDKs above in FP 11.9 on Windows IE; Likely an issue in all OS/SDK/FP combinations.

> Sample code:
> {noformat}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" >
> 	<mx:Script>
> 		<![CDATA[
> 			import mx.collections.XMLListCollection;
> 			import mx.controls.Alert;
> 			protected var mainXML:XML = 
> 				<root>
> 					<item id="1"/>
> 					<item id="2"/>
> 					<item id="3"/>
> 				</root>;
> 			
> 			protected function addButton_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
> 			{
> 				trace("Length before adding: " + mainXML.item.length()); // traces '3'
> 				var some:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection();
> 				for each (var o:Object in mainXML.item)	{
> 					some.addItem(o);
> 				}
> 				trace("Length After adding: " + mainXML.item.length()); // traces '5' BUT SHOULD BE STILL 3
> 			}
> 		]]>
> 	</mx:Script>
> 	<mx:Button label="Add Items" click="addButton_clickHandler(event)" />
> </mx:Application>
> {noformat}
> Result:
> mainXML.item XMLList is gets modified - the 2nd and 3rd items are added to it. That shouldn't happen and can cause very severe issues.
> Workaround:
> Do not use XMLListCollection. Array or ArrayCollection seem to be unaffected by this bug.
> Related Issues:
> This issue might share the same underlying cause: FLEX-21831
