The DataSaver tag allows you to save values into some object. A possible storage is the "data" object available while the IActionList is running.

The DataSaver tags is a handy tag to quickly save values into some storage. You can use the IActionList "data" as a temporary storage from where action that follow in the IActionList can read values. You can also use some other external variable as the storage.

Property detail
destinationproperty
destination:Object  [read-write]

The destination attribute specifies where to store the data coming from the source. It can be one of this options: event, data, result, or another object.

Implementation
    public function get destination():Object
    public function set destination(value:Object):void
destinationCacheproperty 
destinationCache:String  [read-write]

The destinationCache is only useful when the destination is a class. This attribute defines which cache we will look up for a created object.

Implementation

destinationKeyproperty 
destinationKey:String  [read-write]

If you want to set the value of a property of the destination object, instead of the destination itself, you need to specify this attribute.

Implementation
    public function get destinationKey():String
    public function set destinationKey(value:String):void
sourceproperty 
source:Object  [read-write]

The source attribute specifies where to get the data to copy from. It can be one of this options: event, data, result, fault, lastReturn, message, scope, or another object.

Implementation
    public function get source():Object
    public function set source(value:Object):void
