             Summary: state-dependant datagrid inside module, itemRenderer does not access parentDocument consistantly
                 Key: FLEX-34018
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-34018
             Project: Apache Flex
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Cell Renderers, Modules, Spark: DataGrid, States
    Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.11.0
         Environment: Windows Vista
            Reporter: Jeff Spicer
            Priority: Minor


myDataGrid is inside myModule.
myDataGrid displays according to a state, and has an itemRenderer in it.

The itemRenderer is attempting to access a var in myDataGrid like so:
this.grid.dataGrid.parentDocument.myVar

The datagrid displays correctly when the state is entered for the first time.  But consecutive times the state is re-entered, flash player locks up.
This is because ...parentDocument is referencing the Module class instead of myModule.

Work around:

var _parent:DisplayObjectContainer = this.grid.dataGrid.parent;
var _myVar:MyVar
while (_parent != this.parentApplication)
{
	if (_parent.hasOwnProperty("myVar"))
	{
		_myVar= _parent["myVar"];
		break;
	}
	else _parent = _parent.parent;
}
