Using the Application Container

Adobe Flex defines a default Application container that lets you start adding content to your application without having to explicitly define another container. This topic describes how to use an Application container.

Flex defines any MXML file that contains an <mx:Application> tag as an Application object. For more information, see About the Application object.

The Application container supports an application preloader that uses a progress bar to show the download progress of an application SWF file. You can override the default progress bar to define your own custom progress bar. For more information, see Showing the download progress of an application.
