[Laszlo-user] propriety of using data field in a view

[Elliot Winard]

If I have a bunch of instances of data-bound views (or class instances) 
that access the object's .data property.  This is not a documented field 
in LzView or LzNode but I started using it when I caught [ondata] 
events.  See example below.

My question is.... is it safe to refer to the data property of a 
data-bound view?  If so, I'll log a LPP bug that it should be documented.

Thanks!

    <button text="set data one"

    <view name="myview">

        <handler name="ondata" args="d">
            // code does stuff based on this.data here
            Debug.write("ondata", d, this.data);
        </handler>
        <text datapath="@name" />
