Subject: Moonshine-IDE.com -- FlexJS, Flex, and ActionScript focused open
source IDE -- contribution to Apache FlexJS


Hello Apache FlexJS Team,

I am pleased to report progress on the open source Moonshine IDE for Flex,
FlexJS, and ActionScript that Dhwani discussed at the FlexJS World Tour in
early April in San Francisco.

We have now released it through the Apple Mac App Store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/moonshine/id1099109346?mt=12

There is still a lot we want to add -- and we could really use some help
from some of the more brilliant developers on the list.  The debugger,
auto-completion, and other aspects need attention which may be beyond the
scope of our skill set to develop in a reasonable time frame.

If anyone is interested in helping us in these areas, I would greatly
appreciate hearing from you.  Please reach me on Skype or Twitter at
JustinProminic so I don't miss any replies on the list.

For those of you with limited time, if you could take a quick download of
the app and maybe write a fair but reasonably positive review on the App
Store that would be appreciated.  Again, we know it is not perfect and it
needs work, and our goal is to make the FlexJS ecosystem very easy for
someone to get started with.  So example programs, tutorials, etc. are high
on our list of inclusion along with build scripts to quickly get a new
developer releasing their first HTML/Javascript, Windows, Mac, iOS, and
Android build including App Store ready builds without having to dig
through lots of information like the rest of us have had to do over the
years.

Thank you,

Justin Hill
My Apache Flex community contribution is working on the open source
Moonshine-IDE.com for FlexJS.

Hi Om,
I need it ASAP, as I need to wrap it up by this month end. That's great to hear 
from you. Surely, I'll pitch in.

For now, I wanted UK's map with its states\bricks highlighting based on 
data(For Ex: red\yellow\green). If it's for SDK, then I guess it needs to be 
generalised(for both web and mobile). Any ideas what can be the best approach 
for this?

While searching some more, I came across this great place where there are so 
many flex libraries(at least I was not aware of many of them). May be this will 
be of some help to others too:
https://github.com/uhub/awesome-actionscript

In that list, I got this library which fits by needs.
https://github.com/Srirangan/flex-choropleth-map-component/blob/master/ChoroplethMapExample.mxml

However, it's purely in Flex 3. Need to check if converting it to 4 works as 
intended or if there shall be many changes to it. I'll be doing that now.

I'm not quite sure how to get those lat\long points for the boundaries. I tried 
http://geojson.io/ , but that's for custom coordinates.

 Now that 4.14.1 is out of the way, I want to concentrate on releasing

 I have rebuilt the iOS and Android apps with the new skins and they do

 manager for this release.

 Here are a few issues we need to consider:

 1. The ASF does not currently have a way to let TLP projects to sign 
 app store binaries.  Instead of waiting on them, I plan to release it 
 under my own name, but with enough disclaimers to say that this is an 
 [un]official release of the Apache Flex project (only the binaries)  
 We will be releasing the source under the normal release process, of course.
 2.  Does anyone want to suggest a better name than Tour de Flex Mobile?
 Or is this good enough?

 3.  Testing the binaries will be an interesting problem.

 a.  For the Android platform, I can put up the .apk file on our Apache 
 dist folder and ask folks to download it from there.
 b.  As far as the iOS app goes, I am planning on creating a TestFlight 
 team and send an invite to users@ and dev@ so that folks can sign up 
 for testing those apps.

 Any suggestions or concerns, please feel free to raise them here.

Would you give up on it being an Eclipse plug-in if you could do that?

Also note that, AFAIK, we have not broken the Flash Builder 4.6 Design View.
I believe Apache Flex releases still work in Flash Builder 4.6 although they
are not officially supported.  You can have both Flash Builder 4.6 and 4.7
installed on a single machine.  I think there may be some issues with

Hi Darkstone,

Radii8 - Yeah. I was also impressed with the export to Flex, HTML 
Android, I also did not expect that.

I wonder if companies like IntelliJ, etc. would collaborate with Radii8 or
Radii8 to collaborate with the Apache Flex Team. Design View seems to be an
on-going request. If we want attract more developers to Apache Flex, this is
a core marketing feature. This is what attracted many new developers to Flex
in the first place.

Imagine integrating this with FlexJS..
 
I will try and contact Radii8, see if they are interested.

After I've played with these three Design View Tools, the only one seems
promising is http://www.radii8.com/demo/ . Although the flex components of
that demo provides are incomplete, I'm impressed that it can export flex to
html and android on the fly, I got say I did not expect that! I'll tell my

https://github.com/igorcosta/ApacheFlexUIBuilder
This one works too, but lack of options to do complex jobs.

http://designview.sourceforge.net/#
And this one is out of date, it's based on old flex mx frameworks, which is
abandoned by new verions of Flex.

Now let's figure it out how to incorporate the Design View Application into
official Apache Flex release, should we just build our own Design View
Application and publish it on flex.apache.org, or ask third-party
organizations like radii8.com to donate their works?

Well it's just my silly thought, I know eventually if we want it, we have to
do it ourselves : D

because I wrote a blog about the new features and many enhancements about

The blog is written in Chinese, I posted it on my blog and weibo (it's like
Chinese Twitter), many AS3 developers read it, and some of them also forward
the blog, here it is:

My net friends who work in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou, they
are talking about Flex in my QQ group (it's a Chinese IM group), some of
them downloaded Flex 4.12 to give a try, some of them decided to build solid
mobile and desktop projects using Flex.

I will continue to help spreading Flex to the Chinese developers, and

Subject: Missing on the website

Hello all,

I'm one of the 1+ that succesfully installed 4.11 SDK. There are a few
things though that might improve the information flow on new updates etc.

1. Wouldn't it be a good idea to publish compact release notes with each
update. These shouldn't list all bug fixes or so but list functionality
which have changed or was added. 
Personally I use flex day in day out and sometimes, I 'discover' newly added
or changed functionality (e.g. spark Alert, removeItem on ArrayCollection,
etc ...).
this could be as simple as stripping the 'NEW FEATURES' section of the
release notes and put it in a convenient place.
We might put this on a page under 'About flex' or 'Development'??

2. There is some confusion on how to succesfully deploy apps for the new
iOS7 platform. Couldn't we write a sort of checklist for the flex community
and put that on the website?

I think these things could add value to our website.

These are just my thoughts on what's missing on the website but maybe others
might have additional suggestions?

Sincerely

Dany Dhondt

vote for it, because from my point of view this might have a huge impact on
developing Android mobile apps based on Apache Flex and Adobe AIR.

There are already a lot of complaints from game developers which get bad
user ratings for their apps and even Adobe AIR gets negative rates in Google

I'm not sure how many Intel x86 based Android Tablets are out there.

Hi,

I've updated FlexJS with a DataGrid component. There is both an ActionScript
and a JavaScript version. I also added an example application. I'll update
some Wiki pages either today or tomorrow with an explanation of the
component. This DataGrid is a basic shell that is a composed of a ButtonBar
for the header and Lists for the columns and uses a simple itemRenderer for
the cells.

In case you weren't aware, one of the key features of FlexJS is its use of
styles to provide default component beads. For example, you can specify
which bead to use to draw a button. This aspect of FlexJS was not present in
the JavaScript side until recently when Alex Harui added that capability;
before Alex's change the JavaScript version of a component had its beads
hard-coded. While creating the DataGrid component I changed a few other
components to extracting their beads from the style sheet which cleaned them
up a quite a bit. There is still more work to do on that front but so far it
works quite well.

Installation of SDK with Installer 2.7 RC2 went good.

Because the downloads were already there, installation took only a few
minutes!

Some remarks:
- I am still having the error Cannot delete temp directories although the
installation went well, and the temp/ directory is still there at the end of
the installation.  (the folder was not opened in Windows Explorer, and
anti-virus turned off).
- Is there a reason for required options not being selected by default ?
- On a fresh installation (nothing in the cache), the installer will take up
to 1.4 GB of memory . I think this is because it needs to load the huge zip
files in memory  to check the MD5, but it's good to know if you have a small
configuration.

Hi,

I am pleased to announce that the Project Management Committee (PMC) for
Apache Flex has invited Darrell Loverin to become a committer and he has
accepted.

Darrell provided several key patches to the Falcon compiler over the past
few weeks.  Darrell was a member of Adobe's ASC 2.0 team and therefore has a
better understanding of the Falcon code base than just about any other
committer.  Before that he spent nearly 6 years on the Flex team, helping to
create the cross-versioning feature known as the Marshall Plan and
implementing the signed RSL feature, style modules, improving embedded font
handling and more.  He therefore is familiar with ActionScript and the MXMLC
code base as well.

Darrell and I first worked together in the late 1980's at Wang Laboratories
on a product called Freestyle.  We both were at Lotus/IBM at the same time
for a while, Darrell on Lotus Notes while I worked on various other products
including cc:Mail.  And after I joined Macromedia to work on Flex, I
encouraged Darrell to join me.

Welcome Darrell!

RE: Flex 4.10 with Adobe AIR 3.8 not working smooth

2013-09-11 Thread Sugan Naicker
HI,

I did a test on FB4.6 / SDK 4.10 / Air 3.8 and got the same error when I
clicked on Print PDF.

Debug shows img.bitmapData = NULL on the following line :

var cover:BitmapData = img.bitmapData;

I assume this then triggered the ...a null object reference error.

RE: [jira] [Commented] (FLEX-33645) Spark Datagrid : Record Select and Column Sort issue

2013-08-02 Thread Sugan Naicker
Hi Alex,

 ?  I noticed some of the UI was overlaying the DataGrid

Samsung Note was a custom device that I added to the Flash Builder device 
list, it's got a smaller screen, switching to Samsung galaxy caused the UI 
overlay.

Solution :
---
After seeing your comment above I realized that it may be a PPI issue,  I 
changed the PPI to match the Galaxy Tab PPI and now the data grid works 100%. 

So the issue is a PPI issue that is impacting the datagrid. In SDK 4.9.1 the 
original PPI setting works 100%.

 Spark Datagrid : Record Select and Column Sort issue
 

 Key: FLEX-33645
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33645
 Project: Apache Flex
  Issue Type: Bug
  Components: Spark: DataGrid
Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.10.0
 Environment: Win 7 (32 bit), Flex SDK 4.10.0, Air 3.8, FlashBuilder 
 4.6
Reporter: Sugan Naicker
  Labels: test
 Fix For: Apache Flex 4.9.0

 Attachments: SqlDB.fxp


 I have a Flex Mobile app with a Spark Datagrid. When the data-grid is 
 populated, the app :
 1) Allows you to 'only' select +/- half of the records on the data-grid, the 
 rest are not select-able.
 2) If you click on the column headers, only the first 2 columns when selected 
 performs a sort.
 I reverted to SDK 4.9.1 with Air 3.4 and I can select 'all' recordsin the 
 data-grid + click on any header and the grid will sort.

For Samsung Note, I used PPI=285 :
SDK 4.9.1   -  Datagrid works perfectly with PPI=285

 So the issue is a PPI issue that is impacting the datagrid. In SDK 4.9.1

What was the PPI setting that caused the issue? It may be a bug with the new

may want to concentrate on:

a) Get latest code.  Does [1] have the most current information?
b) Set up development environment (With at least FB. IntelliJ would be a
bonus)
c) Walk through an 'easyfix' bug from JIRA and fix it
d) Test the changes.  Checkintests, Mustella, Alex's patch server, etc.
e) Generate a patch file and submit

Hi,

 

Ran the following tests :

 

1) Firefox (V14.0.1) - works (see pic below)



 

Issues :  

1)  I found is that when you 'rapidly' click on the radio box 'text' in
quick succession, 'sometimes' the correct radio box does not get selected. 

Example below - GREEN selected (and highlighted), but radio box not
activated.

 



2)  Clicking on the OK button takes some time before a value appears in
the text box. Note sure what is coded behind the OK button (if it is
fetching a value from web and returning value)

 

 

2) IE (V9.0.8112) - does not work  (see pic below)



- Get undefined above OK button and in Text box

- Radio and Check box are selectable

- Button's are unresponsive

- Clicking on AAPL, etc does not push value to text box

 comment on the effectiveness or quality of your code, just 

 something I thought I'd share and see what you think.

 

 Actually I think it works fine. The problem you are facing is with 

 the MXML emitter I am sure. This adds complexity to what you are 

 trying to accomplish and it is circular from the perspective of 

 using AS within MXML.

 

 There is a buffer writer(output stream), a writer, a visitor and
emitter.

 

 Each one takes a dependency of its parent. Trust me, if there is a 

 child that knows about its parent I am blind. Like I said, the 

 block walker is a visitor and the emitter is a visitor. You cannot 

 escape the fact there is recursion.

 

 If you can think of a more elegant way to set it up, by  all means 

 write a prototype. Remember, I wrote this with an atom bomb under 

 me and lighting in the sky, there may be parts that could be
logicalized.

 

 I have another full compiler in Randori that I am going to use as 

 a proof of concept with compiler plugins and my ASDoc compiler I
wrote.

 So I guess we both can experiment, we can agree to leave the core 

 alone for the time being.

 just that it somehow isn't elegant. And that's in no way a

 something I thought I'd share and see what you think.

 Actually I think it works fine. The problem you are facing is with 
 the MXML emitter I am sure. This adds complexity to what you are 
 trying to accomplish and it is circular from the perspective of 
 using AS within MXML.

 There is a buffer writer(output stream), a writer, a visitor and
emitter.

 Each one takes a dependency of its parent. Trust me, if there is a 
 child that knows about its parent I am blind. Like I said, the 
 block walker is a visitor and the emitter is a visitor. You cannot 
 escape the fact there is recursion.

 If you can think of a more elegant way to set it up, by  all means 
 write a prototype. Remember, I wrote this with an atom bomb under 
 me and lighting in the sky, there may be parts that could be
logicalized.

 Issues :
 1)  I found is that when you 'rapidly' click on the radio box 'text'
in
 quick succession, 'sometimes' the correct radio box does not get selected.
 Example below - GREEN selected (and highlighted), but radio box not 
 activated.
 
 
 2)  Clicking on the OK button takes some time before a value appears
in
 the text box. Note sure what is coded behind the OK button (if it is 
 fetching a value from web and returning value)
 
 
 2) IE (V9.0.8112) - does not work  (see pic below)
 
 - Get undefined above OK button and in Text box
 - Radio and Check box are selectable
 - Button's are unresponsive
 - Clicking on AAPL, etc does not push value to text

There are a couple of sub-projects going on that will 'relieve' Apache Flex
from the bonds of the Flash Player, whether it continues to exist or not (my
guess is: there is too much money invested - not only by Adobe - for it to
go soon and go quietly, you're reading too much into that blog post).

These projects (FalconJx, FlexJS and VanillaSDK) can all use contributors.
So, if you're interested in preparing Apache Flex for the post-Flash era,
join us and help make AS/MXML - HTML5/JS a reality sooner rather than
later!

 Adobe
  air wich allow to make some native extension etc...
  What about that, if Flash (and adobe Air ?) is die, how to target

  85% of the code :/

  One thing nobody talks about Flex is that the platform gives you

 I agree

 But at some poin we will need more then the  OOP/MXML argument.

  In what concerns us, the important thing is to keep the

Flex
  (OOP, MXML, ...) as this produces output to Flash and HTML 
  /
 JS. I
think
 in
  older applications will have to keep running in Flash and 
  the

 framework
  will have the potential for multiple outputs.
 
  IMHO, what keeps us in this Platform are all benefits that 
  gives us
   as
  developers (OOP, MXML) and third-party tools that support 
  the
   platform.
 If

manage
