[FalconJX] extern issue?

[Harbs]

I have the following in an extern:

/**
 * Convert the given text to a list of Glyph objects.
 * Note that there is no strict one-to-one mapping between characters and
 * glyphs, so the list of returned glyphs can be larger or smaller than the
 * length of the given string.
 * @param  {string} s
 * @param  {Object=} options
 * @return {opentype.Glyph[]}
 */
opentype.Font.prototype.stringToGlyphs = function(s, options) {};

The function returns an array of opentype.Glyph objects.

When I try compile a call to this function, I get the following error (in 
compc):
"Implicit coercion of a value of type Glyph to an unrelated type Array."

This seems to me like it’s probably a bug.

Again, probably DAYG (Do As You Go).  If none of our examples needed it,
nobody has coded it up.  In FlexJS, we probably shouldn't have
scrollPolicy like we did with Flex.  It should just be a choice of
ScrollingViewport beads:  One with only-vertical, one with
only-horizontal, one with both on always, one with some smarts about when
to turn them on, etc.

Not all bugs will be fixed right away.  We just don't have enough people.
We need more code contributors.

It isn't whether a bunch of code is outside of flex-asjs folder, it is
whether that code is using goog.require or not.  So look at
flash.display.Sprite.js and see if it is or not.  If it is, then the issue
may be whether flash.display.Sprite.js is in the SWCs or specified via
-sdk-js-lib.  If it isn't, then it may not be usable as a base class in
FlexJS.  I think Google Closure expects goog.require.

Components have to be made into MXML-ready components to be used as the
top tag in MXML.  Look for components in flex-asjs that have a
generateMXMLAttributes method.

Components can be child tags in MXML without as much overhead, but I think
we currently require children to implement IUIBase.

Re: [FlexJS] Horizontal list missing scrollbar

[Justin Mclean]

Hi,

Is there anyway to make horizontal and vertical scrollbars allways show?  A 
overflow:scroll should do it but it looks like you can’t directly apply styles 
to the container (positioner?) that has the scroll bars. Adding this style to 
the container that has the scrolled content has no effect.

BTW I recall bringing this up a couple of years back. See for example 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-34242 and a couple of other JIRA’s 
related to scrolling at the some time.

Thanks,
Justin

Well, I don't know how to define "big", but we do need to get it right,
and I think we have more good real-world use cases to consider.  Effects
should plug-in and be PAYG like anything else, so sure there might be
Effects-knowledgable layouts, or Effects-capable components (where setting
x,y,w,h first dispatches a cancelable "changing" event that the Effects
system cancels.  Or maybe Effects is a completely different API than
regular Flex where you use EffectInstances as proxies to change the actual
properties on the display objects.

Or all of the above since there doesn't have to be only one way to do
things.  If you can live with visual cruft you can have a smaller, more
primitive effects system.  I just noticed on my phone that when it is
running slowly, that the slide switch that turns on my mobile hotspot
actually gets reset back to the off position and animated to on.

In the dual branch, the HTML package only contains the  kinds of
components.  Basic contains the more Flex-like controls.

Re: [FlexJS]Layout redux

[Peter Ent]

Maybe we need a big refactor. Things like effects are pretty advanced and maybe 
they should get coupled with more advanced/complex layouts that are in a 
different package than HTML. 

The basic packages could be simpler layouts that do minimal settings. The HTML 
package could be JS only and just wrap the HTML elements for use with 
ActionScript.

Then another pancake has the SWF and JS components and beads with light layouts 
and accessories. 

This seems more PAYG.

Hi Chris,

Did you have a chance to look into that? Cause I was trying to use
COMPILE::JS in my app and it's failed.
