[flexcoders] Binding behaviour

[geckko]

Hi all,

I'm trying to duplicate one object but when i modify the "master" object
the child object is modified too. My code is something similar to this

private function cloneLeaf():CallMonitoringLeaf{
var obj:CallMonitoringLeaf = new CallMonitoringLeaf();
obj.optionCallMonitoring = optionCallMonitoring;
obj.nodesSelected = nodesSelected;
obj.dataCallMonitoring = dataCallMonitoring;
obj.nodeName = nodeName;
return obj;
}

But when i modify nodeName (for example) in the object that i use to
duplicate (master object), the child object modifies its name too. Is
there any way to avoid this behaviour?

Thanks in advance

[flexcoders] Creating an unconvential Air app like kuler

[Nick Middleweek]

Hi,

How does one create an Air app that has a non-rectangle window like Kuler?

And is it possible to create an Air app that has multi windows?


Thanks,

[Rogerio Gonzalez]

You can use base64 to encode your image on the server side, and then decode
in flex to display it.

[flexcoders] Re: Binding behaviour

[turbo_vb]

If nodeName is a class, you'll need to create a clone method in that class as 
well, and do this:

obj.nodeName = nodeName.clone();

If it's just a string, you can try:

obj.nodeName = nodeName.toString();

[flexcoders] Module's creationComplete() called locally but not remotely

[sdl1326]

I have a module that is being loaded using the mxml ModuleLoader. When I
run the course locally on xampp, everything works, including the
Module's creationComplete function. However, upon loading it and testing
on a web server, creationComplete() never gets called. The module loads
correctly including all visual objects, however, the data isn't being
loaded which is handled in the creationComplete function. I have
confirmed this by placing both an Alert.show and Debug.log (Arthropod)
functions in the creationComplete and neither get called when running on
the remote server. Both get executed when testing locally.
Thanks for any and all replies.

[flexcoders] Re: ModuleLoader.child is null

[turbo_vb]

Perhaps you're getting an error on load; probably due to the path.  Try adding 
an event listener for ModuleEvent.ERROR.

Also, this line is missing an equal sign:

var test:ITest ITest(this._moduleLoader.child);

Should be:

var test:ITest = ITest(this._moduleLoader.child);

This was a typo. this._moduleLoader.child is still null here though. I get the 
same problem using mx and spark ModuleLoader. So unless someone can spot the 
problem, I'm going to use SWFLoader...

RE: [flexcoders] Re: ModuleLoader.child is null

[Philip Smith]

The module loads fine in a simple testbed, but in this particular larger 
application context, fails (and it's time consuming/costly debugging, when by 
all extents and purposes, it should work). In the end, I can achieve a similar 
result with SWFLoader, and cast the result as an interface type...

Same. I gave up on all the quirks and pains and limitations of Flex Modules and 
went with loading in separate .swfs calling them an interface.  Worked just as 
well, and I felt more "in control".

Can you post link-reports for the main app and the module?  The implication is 
that the factory.create() didn’t work because the module’s class definition is 
not in the module swf.

[flexcoders] code out of sync with flash builder

[Wouter Schreuders]

Hi All

I'm continually running into this problem. When I debug my code flash
builder intermittently show's me the previous build. It's super frustrating
because you make a complex logic change to your code and then it doesn't
work and you never know if it's that the code is wrong or flash builder
just screwed up and is showing you the previous version.

Anyone else run into this and know of some concrete steps I can take to
prevent it from happening? A friend of mine runs FDT and says he's also
encountered it so I'm guessing it's an eclipse problem.

Any help would be appreciated

thanks

Wouter

Re: [flexcoders] HTTPService post to return an image?

[Tunde Majolagbe]

Hello 

You cant send raw binaries via a http api 
two things i suggest you may do

1) convert your binary data  to hexadecimal (hex) Xters at the server site  and 
send it across the web as hex data then reconvert your  hex data to binaries on 
the browser.

2) Save the image on a path on the server, obtain the url to the path of the 
image
    return the url with httpservice (as a string offcourse) and set as 
imagepath to your image control.  


All the best !

  Is it possible to return an image object using HTTPService?



The fault method executes when I attempt to do this:



var http:HTTPService = new HTTPService();

http.url = "myScript.ashx";

http.method = "POST";

http.resultFormat = "object";



Should URLLoader be used instead?

[flexcoders] (s:List useVirtualLayout==true) + (HorizontalLayout==false) problem

[naztafarian]

Hi guys.

I have a Spark List that has useVirtualLayout set to true with a 
HorizontalLayout with variableColumnWidth set to false. (all itemRenderers 
inside have the same width)

The problem is, when I change the width of the custom itemRenderer and/or its 
contents, the itemRenderers don't update their x position on the List layout - 
they retain their old one from their original width.

As a result, I get the items overlapping if I make the itemRenderer wider or 
spaced too far apart if I make them thinner.

Is there a way to tell the list/HorizontalLayout to update the positions of its 
child elements manually?

Regards,

-Naz
