Javascript functions
In FlexJS, is there a way to call a Javascript function from ActionScript? I did not see an obvious way to do it but I may have missed something. Thanks, Jim
Image caching
I had some code in my old Flex application to load and cache image files. The code used Loader and then created a Bitmap object from the downloaded image file. Can anyone suggest the possibilities for how I could approach this process in FlexJS, or point me to an example?

RE: XML hasOwnProperty method
Hi-
I installed the Apache FlexJS Nightly using the SDK Installer and adjusted the
project compiler to the new SDK, but I am still seeing failures with the
handleOwnProperty method. I will try to do some additional debugging tomorrow
to see where the problem is coming from.
In the meantime I used the work around you mentioned and got a component
working correctly in Firefox. However, I am getting a syntax error in Internet
Explorer when creating the XML object (the same function works in Firefox, both
using the same XML file). Specifically the issue is at this line in XML.js:
var /** @type {string} */ errorNS =
org.apache.flex.utils.Language.string(parser.parseFromString('<',
'application/xml').getElementsByTagName("parsererror")[0].namespaceURI);
In Firefox this line works without issue, but in IE I see a syntax error in the
debugger.
I did a little research and it seems this may be an issue specific to IE11,
although it is a little unclear to me how best to fix it.

XML hasOwnProperty method
This may be for Harbs as I think he did a lot of the work for XML.
I am working on some existing Flex code and trying to convert portions of it
to FlexJS. As part of the application it loads a lot of XML files and uses
E4X to parse them. I was able to get this working quickly in swf format, so
that was awesome!
However, I am having a problem with the hasOwnProperty method. It works
fine running in swf format, but when I export to HTML/JS the Javascript
bombs on the hasOwnProperty method calls. If I remove them the code
executes as it should.
I checked here
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/E4X+Observations) and it
seems like they should be working but I wanted to check if I am doing
something I should not.
Typically these checks look like this in AS:
if (resourceXML.hasOwnProperty("@collapsible") == true){
globalCollapsible = toBoolean(resourceXML.@collapsible);
}else{
_globalCollapsible = false;
}
And look like this in the JS (the last alert I message I see is the
'checking global property'):
alert('TextViewer checking global property');
if (resourceXML.hasOwnProperty("@collapsible") == true) {
alert('TextViewer.init found global property');
this._globalCollapsible =
this.toBoolean(resourceXML.attribute('collapsible'));
} else {
alert('TextViewer.init global property not found');
this._globalCollapsible = false;
}
I have a ton of these types of checks in my code so any insight you may have
into either 1) what is wrong, or 2) what I should do instead would be a lot
of help.
Thanks,
Jim

RE: Help with 0.8
Hello- I am trying to use some components and having some trouble (both running a swf and sometimes different issues when exporting JS). For basics, I want to setup some HTML text, but I get an exception when using the HTMLText component. See trace below. Let me know if there may be additional setup steps for FlashBuilder I am unaware of. I also tried TextArea which displayed in swf (with a lot of Mouse event errors) but not when I exported to JS.

Help with 0.8
Hi- I had previously setup the Hello World sample using FlexJS 0.7. I installed 0.8 and I am getting an internal build error that appears to be related to the Java SDK version. The project runs find if I switch back to version 0.7. I downloaded and ran the installer for Java SDK 1.8 but continued to get the same error. I also set the environment variable for JAVA_HOME to the new Java SDK folder, restarted Flash Builder, but the trace is still indicating that it is using Java 1.6. If anyone has any advice on how to correct this I would appreciate it. Error log: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/google/javascript/jscomp/ErrorManager : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0 Session data: eclipse.buildId=M20110909-1335 java.version=1.6.0_31 java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.

RE: [FALCONJX][FLEXJS] XML handling (was Re: [FlexJS] Back port)
Backward compatibility with our large set of deployed (XML based) content is critical, so very likely JS rather than JSON.

Just curious, if FlexJS didn’t exist and you had to use some other JS framework, would you port all of your XML handling to JS or switch over to JSON? Other folks with XML backend are welcome to add their thoughts as well. -Alex On 11/10/15, 8:30 AM, "Jim Norris" wrote: >Hello, > >I have been observing the progress on FlexJS as I am the developer for >an application built with Flex that my company deploys into large >enterprises. > >We have XML based content and use a significant number of E4X >expressions, so if there is a way to simplify the conversion of these >expressions to Flex JS that would certainly make an eventual conversion >of our application simpler.

RE: [FALCONJX][FLEXJS] XML handling (was Re: [FlexJS] Back port)
Hello, I have been observing the progress on FlexJS as I am the developer for an application built with Flex that my company deploys into large enterprises. We have XML based content and use a significant number of E4X expressions, so if there is a way to simplify the conversion of these expressions to Flex JS that would certainly make an eventual conversion of our application simpler. We also use the XML.hasOwnProperty method to detect the existence of attributes that are used as configuration switches in the XML.
