</Application>

You can also set the LinearGradientStroke object’s entries property using data binding, as seen in the following example:

View MXML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- http://blog.flexexamples.com/2008/12/31/creating-a-linear-gradient-stroke-on-a-rect-object-in-flex-gumbo/ -->
<Application name="Rect_stroke_LinearGradientStroke_test"
        xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        layout="vertical"
        verticalAlign="middle"
        backgroundColor="white">

    <Declarations>
        <Array id="arr">
            <GradientEntry color="red" />
            <GradientEntry color="white" />
            <GradientEntry color="blue" />
        </Array>
    </Declarations>

    <Graphic>
        <Rect id="rect" width="300" height="200">
            <stroke>
                <LinearGradientStroke entries="{arr}" />
            </stroke>
        </Rect>
    </Graphic>

</Application>

Or, you can set the LinearGradientStroke object’s entries property using ActionScript, as seen in the following example:

View MXML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- http://blog.flexexamples.com/2008/12/31/creating-a-linear-gradient-stroke-on-a-rect-object-in-flex-gumbo/ -->
<Application name="Rect_stroke_LinearGradientStroke_test"
        xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        layout="vertical"
        verticalAlign="middle"
        backgroundColor="white">

    <Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import mx.graphics.GradientEntry;

            private var arr:Array;

            private function init():void {
                arr = [];
                arr.push(new GradientEntry(0xFF0000));
                arr.push(new GradientEntry(0xFFFFFF));
                arr.push(new GradientEntry(0x0000FF));
                linearGrad.entries = arr;

            }
        ]]>
    </Script>

    <Graphic creationComplete="init();">
        <Rect id="rect" width="300" height="200">
            <stroke>
                <LinearGradientStroke id="linearGrad" />
            </stroke>
        </Rect>
    </Graphic>

</Application>

Due to popular demand, here is the “same” example in a more ActionScript friendly format:

View MXML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- http://blog.flexexamples.com/2008/12/31/creating-a-linear-gradient-stroke-on-a-rect-object-in-flex-gumbo/ -->
<Application name="Rect_stroke_LinearGradientStroke_test"
        xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        layout="vertical"
        verticalAlign="middle"
        backgroundColor="white"
        initialize="init();">

    <Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import mx.graphics.GradientEntry;
            import mx.graphics.Graphic;
            import mx.graphics.LinearGradientStroke;
            import mx.graphics.Rect;

            private var arr:Array;
            private var rect:Rect;
            private var linearGrad:LinearGradientStroke;

            private function init():void {
                arr = [];
                arr.push(new GradientEntry(0xFF0000));
                arr.push(new GradientEntry(0xFFFFFF));
                arr.push(new GradientEntry(0x0000FF));

                linearGrad = new LinearGradientStroke();
                linearGrad.entries = arr;

                rect = new Rect();
                rect.stroke = linearGrad;
                rect.width = 300;
                rect.height = 200;

                var gr:Graphic = new Graphic();
                gr.addElement(rect);
                addChild(gr);
            }
        ]]>
    </Script>

</Application>

This entry is based on a beta version of the Flex Gumbo SDK and therefore is very likely to change as development of the Flex SDK continues. The API can (and will) change causing examples to possibly not compile in newer versions of the Flex Gumbo SDK.
