[flexcoders] RESOLVED: VerifyError: Error #1053
The issue was resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling Flex Builder.
Before resorting to this, I tried the following (without success,
obviously):
1. Cleaned the workspace (multiple times)
2. Closed and restarted Flex Builder (multiple times)
3. Closed and reopened the project
4. Deleted and recreated the project
5. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Flash players
6. Shut down and restarted my laptop

[flexcoders] Skinning an application
Hi, in my application, is it possible to combine programmatic skinning, with graphical skinning and css styling? For instance, I would like to be able to change between a selection of skins, but I would like them to be compromised of the 3 different types of skins. e.g. At the moment I have a tiled background skin which gets applied to a canvas for the header of my application. The header contains an image box which will contain the image of the application. So I would like to be able to change the tiled background and the image of the application name on the fly (at runtime). Is this possible? And if it is, how?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: HELP! How to get a subnode in such a XML data?
Correct, just to clarify this a little further... this isn't some quirk of AS3 - this is implemented as specified in the ECMA 357 E4X specification... section 10.1.1 states: Given an XML object x, the operator ToString converts x to a string s. If a value of type XML has simple content (i.e., contains no elements), it represents a primitive value and ToString returns the String contents of the XML object, omitting the start tag, attributes, namespace declarations and end tag. Otherwise, ToString returns a string representing the entire XML object, including the start tag, attributes, namespace declarations and the end tag.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: rpc fault handler not called
If the AsyncToken is null then either an error occurred before the invocation could even be sent to the server... or that the response was not a well formed implementation of mx.messaging.messages.AcknowledgeMessage and thus could not correlate the result or fault with an outstanding request and hence could not locate a token.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Date - Timezone with WS
Can you be sure that all of the dates that come from that server will be sent in the timezone of that server? If they're -4 hours behind GMT / UTC, then you know that 2007-05-15T00:00:00-04:00 is the same as: 2007-05-15T04:00:00Z However, if you're -7 hours behind GMT / UTC, for example, then this time is seen as: 2007-05-14T21:00:00-07:00 All of these three times are equivalent but just in different timezones. A problem arises if your code, or perhaps some UI component that you're using to display dates, only considers the date portion of this dateTime... then you're not really getting an accurate picture of the point in time in which this dateTime refers. If you're only interested in the date and not the time, then you can always send individual values for , MM and DD (or use xsd:date and not xsd:dateTime). If you can't change the webservice... then you'll need a way to query the remote timezone and make adjustments accordingly (i.e. for the above scenario where you only want the date as it was in that remote date time... you'd have to hack the date by adding the difference from the remote timezone as compared to the local timezone).

Re: [flexcoders] still having trouble with breakpoints
I've run into that recently. I found it went away with an aggressive
combination of cleaning the project, exiting FB, and rebuilding
everything... basically, it seems like its some kind of weird caching issue
with the debugger...
I've run into the frustrating situation where I'll add a series of
trace(hello!) statements to my code and they never show up even after the
code pointer runs past them... clearly a stale build file somewhere.
It usually occurs when I'm working on code that other folks check-in or when
I have to do some SVN gymnastics (like getting a previous revision, etc.).

[flexcoders] Re: e4x problem
Is that the entirety of the XML? What you're referring to as nodes that contain colons are actually elements in a namespace. In the media:thumbnail element, media is the namespace and thumbnail is the node. What's going to cause you a real problem is if your XML doesn't contain a namespace declaration xmlns:media=some stuff... somewhere within or enclosing the element that uses it. If you're generating this XML yourself and weren't trying to use namespaces, then know that the colon : is not a valid character in an element or attribute name--it denotes a namespace instead--and use something else (like hyphens or camel case). If somebody else is generating this for you and didn't put an xmlns declaration in, first slap 'em upside the head, then take yourself to namespaces-with-e4x school.

[flexcoders] Is it possible to load a an intro.swf ( CS3 ) into ( without using swc ) ?
Hello all, I have a a Intro.swf ( made in Flash CS3 ) which is compiled and ready to go ( has a preloader and everything ). Converting it into a swc is a pain in b... since I have to use the new Flash/Flex integration tool which requires me to convert my flash into a single MovieClip so I will be forced to move all the layers around. Not to mention that if I the Intro.swf ( Flash CS3 file ) has an embeded MP3 it crashes Flex. So Is there a way just to load @ runtime when user click on preview intro the pre compiled Intro.swf ( Flash CS3 Intro.swf ) inside of the Flex App. I don't need any interactions between Flex and Flash so swc will be an overkill for me. Just need to be able to load it when user clicks it ( and stop it from with the Intro.swf ). As always, Thank you for all the help and support. Regards, Sean - http://www.HeliHobby.com P.S. You can read my solution for Flex Component communication here: http://www.helihobby.com/html/alon_desingpattern.html
[flexcoders] Flex cookbook article: Flex2 XML Reader Can Create UIComponents
Hi, There is an intriguing article in the flex cookbook on the adobe site about reading in MXML at runtime and using the XML object to create components at runtime. While I don't totally get how this works as there are no code samples, but very vague actually, but it states: Let’s consider, for a moment, how Adobe might have chosen to leverage reuse within the Flex2 programming model. Assuming the Adobe engineers did not want to have to recreate the wheel in terms of how to make Flex2 able to load normal non-GUI XML I would surmise they chose to simply reuse whatever code they wrote that was able to read MXML into a way to read XML. As we know, MXML resembles XML rather closely. Heck, MXML is XML ! Yipee, now I can easily read MXML because it is essentially a form of XML. We also know Flex2 knows how to read MXML at runtime because the compiler knows how to convert MXML into GUI Objects. But what if we could trick Flex2 into dynamically loading MXML at runtime ? So my question, has anyone ever done this and how did they do it? I'm not talking about using the modules package to load in precompiled swfs. But loading in mxml and having it run after being loaded.

ColorMatrixFilter is the right track. Have a look at this:

http://www.ifbin.com/news/2005/09/flash-8-flashfilterscolormatrixfilter\

Setting the RGB lists to [0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0] for each gives a nice
greyed-out appearance, and then you can adjust the alpha to suit.

[flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm 2.2 incompatible with AS-based ServiceLocator?
I declared my ServiceLocator subclass in AS rather than MXML, and when my app loads I load an XML file. That XML file contains the WSDL URLs for all the WebServices that I use in my app, so once it is loaded I call an initServices() method that I defined on the ServiceLocator subclass. The initServices() method declares my WebService objects, sets up event listeners and calls loadWSDL() for each, using the URLs defined in the loaded XML. Once all my loadWSDL() calls have returned the app continues on to other startup tasks. This all worked perfectly in Cairngorm 2.1. With 2.2 however, as soon as I call ServiceLocator.getInstance().getWebService(), I get the error and callstack pasted below. Debugging shows that all of my WebService variables are defined and in memory, but for some reason they are not registered with the ServiceLocator. In some quick tests, I noticed that the describeType() call in AbstractServices.as does not seem to include references to variables defined in AS. Since the accessors list from describeType() seems to be the source of what gets registered with ServiceLocator, my guess is that that is the source of the problem.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex cookbook article: Flex2 XML Reader Can Create UIComponents
Austin et. al. - There are a number of features of MXML that simply can't be replicated at runtime. Things like script blocks. Other features would be prohibitively difficult (arbitrary binding expressions, @Embed, mx:Component, among others). You could reduce MXML to a runtime-parsable subset, and I know various people have taken various approaches to this. The more you reduce it, the easier it would be to replicate...removing repeaters, implicit arrays, default properties, etc. would get you down to something that could be implemented in a reasonable amount of time. I'm curious...how many people would find runtime MXML to be important to them? Ely.

[flexcoders] Textformatter Object pushing boundaries of sprite, but should it?
Adding a text format object to my sprite changed it's height to 100 pixels? It should only be 20 or at least was right before i added it - is this normal? I was getting mouse events outside my sprite and threw me for a loop. Please chime in if you know why? Thanks, Patrick

[flexcoders] Flex 2 Component to Flash CS3
Anyone know how to use a Flex 2 AS3 component in Flash CS3? Or would I be better off recreating a Flash version of it? :D
Re: [flexcoders] Flex on Mac
Thanks guys, it helps a lot. Arleston 2007/5/16, Nick Sophinos [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Yeah and totally don't buy Apple's FUD that only Apple Brand RAM is a valid choice. After all, even they don't use their branded RAM in their new laptops all the time. My 15 Powerbook came straight from factory with Hynix RAM. - Nick On 5/16/07, Brett [EMAIL PROTECTED] suppaibeg%40gmail.com wrote: Depending on when you were checking the Mac you may be able to get that Mac even cheaper since they bumped up the specs that morning. I'm not sure about the games, I haven't played a PC game for years, but if they would work OK with the integrated 950 chipset then it should be fine. Although you'd have to boot directly into Windows to make use of the acceleration, for now. Also I would highly recommend you DONT buy the extra ram from apple. You can pick it up from crucial.com or newegg.com for a lot cheaper. It's cake to install a new HD or RAM on the MacBook also which is nice, both are accessible once you unlatch the battery. Personally I'd go with a Mac instead of a PC :)
Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex cookbook article: Flex2 XML Reader Can Create UIComponents
The Apache/IIS module is a Flex compiler that compiles the MXML just before serving. Similar to JSP, ASP, PHP. and so on. It is not MXML at runtime. nathanpdaniel wrote: http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Module_for_Apache_and_IIS Not implying I know anything by any means - but from reading what you wrote - it sounds the same... but I really don't know :D --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Austin Kottke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, There is an intriguing article in the flex cookbook on the adobe site about reading in MXML at runtime and using the XML object to create components at runtime.

[flexcoders] Trees and ActionScript
I am trying to programmatically build and manipulate a Tree entirely in ActionScript and I'm having serious issues doing so. I've tried various ways of doing it but currently my failed code looks like: var t:Tree = new Tree(); var dp:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection(); var o1:XML = node label='Testing'/; dp.addItem(o1); t.dataProvider = dp; Ideally I'd like to use only Objects. I've been able to make it work thus far by just having a dataProvider as ArrayCollection and adding Objects to it, but then I have no way of adding branches and I end up with a 1-deep tree. Any advice or references are appreciated. I've gone through the flexdocs and they offer a few examples that seem to almost be talking about what I'm trying to do, but they don't work.
[flexcoders] Re: Number data type rounding/flooring with FDS and Java
Thanks for the feedback Pete -- actually it turned out to be a line in the DAO object that was doing the rounding. I figured when I couldn't find anything on the web that it must be my typical dumb error and not something common. However the part I mention in my first response is still valid, where Number(textInput.text) is different from txtInput.text as Number. The as Number cast does round off the value to the nearest integer. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Peter Farland [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sorry I missed this post originally, is there any chance that you could email me a small test case directly...

I have a strongly-typed VO with a property value as a Number on the Flex side, and a Double on the Java side. In the database the value is, let's say 5.20, but when I view the data in a DataGrid it floors the value to 5. I'm using a dataService to fill the ArrayCollection that holds the VOs and the VO class in ActionScript does have the [Managed] [RemoteClass(alias=] syntax. This works fine for all the data types I've used so far until I got to Number. I figure it's something simple I'm doing wrong, like maybe not specifying the number of decimal points that should be displayed? Also, in a related question, what's the best way to have the user input a Number value into a text input field, since TextInput.text is String data? Thanks!
[flexcoders] doPrint and ViewStack
hi :) (i'm very new to all this) i'm trying to print a selected viewstack text(which is being selected via a List), but it keeps getting cut off my text. the layout of my viewStack is: ViewStack --Canvas TextArea --htmlText --Canvas TextArea --htmlText etc. in my printjob, if i already tried referencing the ViewStack text by the ViewStack.selectedItem, TextArea ID, Canvas ID, etc. by half of my text is getting cut off (anything beyong the scroll bar) can someone please help? Thanks!
[flexcoders] Question regarding showDataEffect and secondSeries of a ColumnChart
Hi, I have a column chart which has 2 dataseries. I'm setting the chart's dataProvider and secondDataProvider when the server returns with it's information. I define the showDataEffect for both series, and my columns work properly. But, my second series is a lineSeries, and what happens is that the line will appear first before everything else, then disappear, then use the effect i defined to reappear along with the first series. I set the lineSeries' showDataEffect to a SeriesInterpolate, whereas my columns use a seriesZoom. If I comment out my mx:series section, the second series seems to draw properly. Is there anyway to find out why it is drawing the second series twice when I use showDataEffect? Thanks very much- -kit
