DeltaItem class (Flash Professional only)

ActionScript Class Name mx.data.components.datasetclasses.DeltaItem

The DeltaItem class provides information about an individual operation performed on a transfer object. It indicates whether a change was made directly to a property of the transfer object or whether the change was made by a method call. It also provides the original state of properties on a transfer object. For example, if the source of the delta packet was a data set, the DeltaItem object contains information about any field that was edited.

In addition to the above, a DeltaItem object can contain server response information such as current value and a message.

Use the DeltaItem class when accessing the changes in a delta packet. To access these changes, use DeltaPacket.getIterator(), which returns an iterator of deltas. Each delta contains zero or more DeltaItem instances, which you can access through Delta.getItemByName() or Delta.getChangeList().
