Ok, so I want to mess around building something to let everyone in the
community have.  Using Flex 2what to use on the backend?  With DAO
Factories, I suppose any back end DB will do, eh?  start with MySQL
and fill in for others.  Now what about the middle ware?  Java,
ColdFusion, etc...  What would be a good popular fit, eh?  Your

[flexcoders] Drawing on a chart?

2006-01-03 Thread Doug Wagner

Is it possible to draw shapes on top of a chart in Flex?

What I want to do is change the shading of the chart background for a 
portion of the chart to highlight a selected range.  I'd also like to 
be able to draw a rectangle on top of the chart to accomplish a 
similar thing.

Does anyone know of a way to do either of these?

Thanks,
Doug

Re: [flexcoders] Re: ANY FLEX TREE GURUS?

2006-01-03 Thread Anatole Tartakovsky

The approach in the sample is for people who want to make custom look for 
their Flex applications, but do not want to learn Flash. I could also use 
drawing API which would provide better performance, but I do believe that 
you need to get the matching set of icons from the UI you are trying to 
immitate,  have designer to scale it to the size used in Flex and apply 
colors to look compatible with the skin you are using. As such, full 
exposure of TreeRow class will be ultimately necessary to make adjustments 
to the margins/padding/connectivity of the lines within/over rows.

 Yes exactly.

 The icons used for the tree, would be SWF used through
 icon=@Embed('icon.swf'). These icons would have some drawing API calls 
 in
 them allowing them to draw the lines as they are rendered. The icon is
 placed by the tree, the icon just needs to use the drawing API to render 
 its
 drawing parts into a nested MovieClip.

 That said, I liked the example posted to this thread earlier. It extended
 the TreeRow class and added the lines via the drawing API in a similar
 manner as rows were rendered. This looked to be a much more reusable
 solution as it did not affect the icons in use but rather just modified 
 the
 way rows were rendered in the tree. Plus there is something to be said for 
 a
 working example.

 My 2 cents,

 Hi Ted,

 Thanks for your thoughts on this .  Looks like the first method you've
 suggested is the better option.

 Question: I am a bit unclear about using the Drawing API embedded into
 SWF Icons.  Are you suggesting to have code inside of the SWF that
 would render the lines according to it's position in the tree?  Am I
 understanding this correctly.

  I think this would best be done via the Drawing API embedded into

  in Flex 1.5 and Flex 2.
 
 
 
  Node Icons would need to draw this:
 
 
 
  -ICON
 
 
 
  Container Icons would need to draw this:
 
 
 
  -ICON
 
  |
 
  |

  Since each Icon knows its position, it can readily draw the lines
  consistently.
 
 
 
  The trick here is that icons are refreshed in the Tree whenever the 
  view
  changes. As they are attached anew, they would simply render out the
 state
  of the tree.
 
 
 
  The other route would be to use the drawing API and render the lines
 in a MC
  behind the tree based on the state of the DataProvider. I think this
 route
  would be more difficult as you would need to draw the nested state
 of all
  nodes at one time.
 
 
 
  With the prior method only the changes portion of the drawing changes 
  as
  needed. I believe that depths get higher as you move south on the
 tree. If a
  parent draws a line all sibling and child nodes will naturally be
 above the
  drawn lines.

[flexcoders] Re: Custom initial sort on datagrid

2006-01-03 Thread Clifford Hall

 I think dg1.sortItems(sortByAge, asc) should have worked (or desc),

should work... but doesn't. And changing to asc and desc instead
of Array.ASCENDING/DESCENDING dosen't really change matters.

To simplify, sorting the array before presenting it to the datagrid
doesn't seem to work. Nor does sorting the datagrid. 

The sort function does in fact work, because when you click the column
header for the age column, it does sort properly, as it only could
using that function. 

I have tried making a special version of the sort function that
doesn't have the 3 param signature that sortItems takes, but has only
2 (as Array.sort takes), but that doesn't help either.

So the real question is what is the best practice for initializing the
sort order of a data grid? Can anyone post a working example?

Thanks,
-=Cliff

 Haven't tried it though.  This will be easier in Flex 2 because sorting
 will be done through Sort objects and SortFields which the DG will
 recognize.

 Subject: [flexcoders] Custom initial sort on datagrid
 
  
 
 Hello all, 
 
 I'm trying to get a datagrid to use a custom sortCompareFunction for its
 initial sort order.
 
 The custom sortCompareFunction works when you click the column header,
 however attempts to sort the dataprovider before it is assigned or the
 grid itself after the dataprovider is assigned all fail. The
 sortCompareFunction has been written so that it can sort either be
 passed objects as it would on an Array.sort (from which it will retrieve
 the string for comparison), or strings which the table will pass when
 the header is clicked.
 
 I have reproduced the various attempts to get it to work in a small mxml
 file included below. There are plenty of comments that show the various
 places that we may try to effect the sort. If you run this mxml, you'll
 see the table, and if you click the 'Age' column header, you'll see the
 sort work. 
 
 If you are able to shed light on the error of my ways here and make this
 sort happen, I myself, my children and my chil! dren's children shall
 speak your name in the most reverant tones for generations to come,
 perhaps performing a little bedside ritual each night, ordering our
 pocket change from large to small around the base of the lamp before
 sleeping as a way of meditating upon the momentous occasion when The

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 2:
Component inheritance?







I'm relatively new to Flex 2 and what I'm trying to do
is to create a set of custom MXML components that share the same AS base
class. So I start with the base component, an empty container to which I
add properties/methods via AS. Call it Base.mxml:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml
xmlns=* 
mx:Script source=Base_inc.as/
!-- Declare base properties/methods --
/mx:Canvas

Then I create a component based on Base. I add a Button and
a TextInput. Call it ComponentA.mxml :

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
Base xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml
xmlns=*
 mx:Script
source=ComponentA_inc.as/ !-- Component-specific
code -- 
 mx:Button x=5 y=41
label=Button/
 mx:TextInput x=2
y=12 text=hello id=MyText/
/Base

Then I add ComponentA to an application. Everything looks
fine in the design view. However, when the app is run, the controls added
by ComponentA do not show up. I put in a creationComplete handler for
ComponentA and traced the value of MyText and it came out null, so
it looks like it never got created. 

Am I missing something? If this isn't how you do component
inheritance, then how can it be done while still taking advantage of the easy
layout offered by MXML?

[flexcoders] Double database Insertions with initialize

I have started to develope a simple flex app using coldfusion as my
backend. While working on some of the more detailed portions of the
app. I have ran into this problem. 

On the backend, I have the coldfusion fucntion below. It is pretty
straight forward and works like a charm when I run it through a cf
page. However when I use this function from with in flex, it insert
two records into the data base. So if my listCompletePrimer was
L051234 it would insert that and the next number in order. So that I
have L051234 and L051235. 

I am using initalize to create this insertion so that I can call back
the inserted number and display it in a form field to an admin. 

Here is my as/flex/cf code. Can someone lead me to the direction of
fixing this.

Flex:
mx:Canvas width=100% height=100%
xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml;

[flexcoders] Re: open sourced Flex app

I have to agree with Franck. I am using webservices for an app I am
working on and they are doing just fine. I dont notice any performace
speed issues with them. Seeing as I am a long time cf developer, I
would have to say use CF. Not because it is my flavor of choice, but
because of the speed of development and the cross platform
functionality that it provides.

Re: [flexcoders] Double database Insertions with initialize

2006-01-03 Thread Tariq Ahmed

Well the first thing to determine is, is qiAdminListFileNumAdd() being 
called twice. Eg open up your net connection debugger and see if a call 
is being made twice, or on the result handler pop up an alert and see if 
that alerts occurs twice, etc...

My guess is that is the case. And my super wild guess is that that 
Canvas is being included in your app as a custom component twice.

Well I know the function is not being called twice, as this is the

right on track with the custom compoent. I do have this comp setup as
a custom comp.

RE: [flexcoders] open sourced Flex app











Hi Douglas,



Exactly the same reason why I chose for
web services. Its standards based, so youre free to go on the
back end.



I dont know what you exactly meant
with staying clear of frameworks, but I think using Hibernate is
a safe bet or maybe later EJB3 (which should be an easy migration). Im
personally not a fan of Spring, but its extremely hot in the Java
community. Im afraid that if youre not using Spring, you will not
be taken seriously.



This brings me to another point. I
personally have a JAVA background and I follow the community sites www.javalobby.org and www.theserverside.com closely. What I
notice is that Flex is not considered a serious alternative for building Rich
Internet Applications. A search on flex does not result in many
hits. Worse, people who vouch for flex are often barked at shamelessly. 



I dont know your intentions behind
your idea of starting an open source flex project. Could you tell us more? To
me it would be a great idea showing the JAVA community that there is a much
cleaner and leaner alternative for web applications than this JSF/AJAX/_javascript_
stuff that is getting so much attention. One of the key success factors would
be to have your back-end state-of-the-art, showing the JAVA people that you
know your stuff. That means IMHO that you need to use popular frameworks like
Hibernate and Spring.



Does anyone have an explanation why Flex is
not taken seriously in JAVA land? Is there something I should know J?



Cheers,

Franck

Web site design development

RE: [flexcoders] open sourced Flex app











Hi Weyert,



Im not into ECM personally. I
mostly develop administrative systems like order management systems and the
like.



I had a look though at Alfresco and after
10 minutes I have a good impression. The webservices api was not entirely
developed yet, but a quick glance at the Authentication WSDL showed my that is
was pretty much similar to the api I developed myself. This makes me conclude
that these web services should be perfectly accessible and usable by a FLEX
app. So, go ahead, if you ask me J.



One thing I noticed though is that the
fault handling of web services within Flex 2 is not working as it should (see
my post at the macromedia labs forum: http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=584threadid=1097471#3924351).
Maybe Im doing wrong, but I dont know what.



Cheers,

Franck

[flexcoders] Placing an icon in a ComboBox

2006-01-03 Thread im_sean_s

Can some one provide me with a straight forwad example on how to add
dynamic icons to a ComboBox control?  I've found examples in flash and
some in flex, however the ones that I've seen seem very convoluted. 
granted I am new to flex, and do not have a flash background.  If
anyone can provide me with a step-by-step example it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you,

Yeah, no one has become an evenagelist there, and

myself to those people, but it has to be done. The problem is, my 
background is Flash, not Flex, so I'm not taken seriously by a lot of Java 
folks, nor am I involved in their community. Someone needs to take the

Hi 
Douglas,

Exactly the same reason 
why I chose for web services. Its standards based, so youre free to go on the 
back end.

I dont know what you 
exactly meant with staying clear of frameworks, but I think using Hibernate is 
a safe bet or maybe later EJB3 (which should be an easy migration). Im 
personally not a fan of Spring, but its extremely hot in the Java community. 
Im afraid that if youre not using Spring, you will not be taken 
seriously.

This brings me to 
another point. I personally have a JAVA background and I follow the community 
sites www.javalobby.org and www.theserverside.com closely. What I 
notice is that Flex is not considered a serious alternative for building Rich 
Internet Applications. A search on flex does not result in many hits. Worse, 
people who vouch for flex are often barked at shamelessly. 


I dont know your 
intentions behind your idea of starting an open source flex project. Could you 
tell us more? To me it would be a great idea showing the JAVA community that 
there is a much cleaner and leaner alternative for web applications than this 
JSF/AJAX/_javascript_ stuff that is getting so much attention. One of the key 
success factors would be to have your back-end state-of-the-art, showing the 
JAVA people that you know your stuff. That means IMHO that you need to use 
popular frameworks like Hibernate and Spring.

Does anyone have an 
explanation why Flex is not taken seriously in JAVA land? Is there something I 
should know J?

Cheers,
Franck

Re: [flexcoders] open sourced Flex app

2006-01-03 Thread Weyert de Boer

Hi Franck,

I’m not into ECM personally. I mostly develop administrative systems
like order management systems and the like.

Well, I am only into ECM because it's my special interest but not really
used it for clients. Anyway I would love to implementate such one for
real someday (new intension/resolution for this year ;-)).

I had a look though at Alfresco and after 10 minutes I have a good
impression. The webservices api was not entirely developed yet, but a
quick glance at the Authentication WSDL showed my that is was pretty
much similar to the api I developed myself. This makes me conclude
that these web services should be perfectly accessible and usable by a
FLEX app. So, go ahead, if you ask me J.

Yes, I would be able to help out if I find the time todo so. Anyway
Alfresco is really nice the company the product tool. It should if it's
backed up by the founder of Documentum :-)

One thing I noticed though is that the fault handling of web services
within Flex 2 is not working as it should (see my post at the
macromedia labs forum:
http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=584threadid=1097471#3924351

http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=584threadid=1097471#3924351).

Maybe I’m doing wrong, but I don’t know what.

Yeps...

Yours,
Weyert de Boer

When using .net if we want to transfer or to send the data from the

I am very new to Flex and trying to try some basic tutorials in the

Re: [flexcoders] How to show and hide busy cursor (showBusyCursor attribute in some MXML tags) manually?

Yep!

import mx.managers.CursorManager;

// And the call it like this:

CursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
CursorManager.setBusyCursor();


I always do a removeBusyCursor first just in case the function that shows 
the cursor gets run twice, I won't accidenatelly set too many busy cursors.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 1.5: AS2 serialization issue . Parent/Child data model implementation

2006-01-03 Thread Peter Farland






Try changing the AMF Gateway logging level from "Error" to 
"Debug" in the /WEB-INF/flex/gateway-config.xml file and restarting the web 
app.

The default logger implementation uses System.out to trace 
information to the console. Depending on your app server and how you start the 
process, this may appear on the command line or in a log 
file.

Have a read of this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=323308

and try changing the registry key it 
describes.

You can use a tool like Paros proxy to intercept HTTPS 
based communication between the flash client and the gateway. Look for the HTTPS 
response headers that come back... Pragma: no-cache and other no-cache related 
headers can cause havoc with requests and SSL in MSIE 6+.

RE: [flexcoders] open sourced Flex app











Hi Douglas,



Its not wrong to use a framework. Some
frameworks are really awesome, like Hibernate. You really dont want to
write your own JDBC calls anymore. But, be my guest, of course  Dont
mistaken yourself though in the complexity of back-end work. Good frameworks do
provide added value.



Are you looking to only increase your Flex
skills or also back-end skills? If you only want to increase your Flex skills I
think your idea to program against an existing API is the best way to go. Another
thread of this post mentions the open source product Alfresco, which has (or
will have) a nice set of web services to program against 



If you do want to increase your back-end
skills you have to do it right 



On the other hand youre right to
say that to know your stuff is not equivalent how fluent you are
in a certain framework. Thats also not what I intended to say. My
reasoning had more to do with the fact that in the cruel and bitter world out
there, unfortunately, its not important how good you are, but how good
others think you are.



Cheers,

Franck

Java folks are also very picky if it comes
to spending money on development tools. We/They are so much used to get
everything for free. Thats why they probably vouch for Laszlo. On the
surface Laszlo and Flex/Flash look very similar. And most Java people will not
look much further than the surface, if they look at all 



Is Macromedia/Adobe going to take the

Hi Douglas,



Exactly the same reason why I chose for
web services. Its standards based, so youre free to go on the
back end.



I dont know what you exactly meant
with staying clear of frameworks, but I think using Hibernate is
a safe bet or maybe later EJB3 (which should be an easy migration). Im
personally not a fan of Spring, but its extremely hot in the Java
community. Im afraid that if youre not using Spring, you will not
be taken seriously.



This brings me to another point. I
personally have a JAVA background and I follow the community sites www.javalobby.org and www.theserverside.com closely. What I
notice is that Flex is not considered a serious alternative for building Rich
Internet Applications. A search on flex does not result in many
hits. Worse, people who vouch for flex are often barked at shamelessly. 



I dont know your intentions behind
your idea of starting an open source flex project. Could you tell us more? To
me it would be a great idea showing the JAVA community that there is a much
cleaner and leaner alternative for web applications than this
JSF/AJAX/_javascript_ stuff that is getting so much attention. One of the key
success factors would be to have your back-end state-of-the-art, showing the
JAVA people that you know your stuff. That means IMHO that you need to use
popular frameworks like Hibernate and Spring.



Does anyone have an explanation why Flex
is not taken seriously in JAVA land? Is there something I should know J?



Cheers,

Franck

[flexcoders] Re: Placing an icon in a ComboBox

2006-01-03 Thread im_sean_s

JesterXL,

Thank you for the quick reply.  What I was looking for may not be 
possible.  I was looking for a way to add icons to add dynamic icons 
to a combobox either through pure MXML and/or action script.  In the 
example you sent, it appeared you were creating a new flash 
component.  Since I am not very familiar with Flash, it is difficult 
for me to follow your example.  Perhaps that is the problem, I 
assumed that in order to use Flex, there was not a requirement to be 
able to use flash.

Thanks again,
Sean

RE: [flexcoders] New to Flex, and mxml and getting an error trying to use RSS











Hi Malik,



It looks like your url is not pointing to
a real XML file. I tried your app and I got the message Error #1090: XML
parser failure: element is malformed.



Also be aware that you cannot point to any
arbitrary URL in the WWW, since Flex apps are only allowed to obtain resources
from the server they have been deployed from, unless there is a crossdomain.xml
file present granting you access to the resource.

RE: [flexcoders] FLEX app over HTTPS

2006-01-03 Thread Carson Hager






The problem is you're going to have to set that on every 
client machine. I don't find that to be acceptable. The problem definitely 
has to do with the no cache headers that are set by the web server when using 
SSL. Clearly this is web server dependent. For example, with Tomcat, these only 
get sent when using HTTPS and when the user is in an authenticated 
session. Tomcat has a way to disable this feature. I would think/hope that 
JBoss Portal offers the same degree of configurability.

[flexcoders] Re: FLEX app over HTTPS

2006-01-03 Thread Dave Wolf


This sounds exactly like what we see with Tomcat when using HTTPS and
AUTH.  It will work fine in FFX but not at all in IE.

It is related to a specific cache-control header.  JBoss uses Tomcat
as its servlet container right?

In Tomcat the solution is the following.  In the web applications
META-INF directory, create a context.xml that includes;

context
 Valve
className=org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator
  disableProxyCaching=false /
/context

If you are using BASIC instead of FORM change the above to

 Valve
className=org.apache.catalina.authenticator.BasicAuthenticator
  disableProxyCaching=false /

[flexcoders] Auto detection of Flash Player Version

Our application currently checks for the minimum flash player version of
7.0.14 which is set in flex-config.xml:

flash-player

I then changed the version number to be 8.0.22, redeploy my application and
then my application doesn't load properly. The application shows the
initialisation bar, reaches the end and stops. When I revert back the
changes to check for 7.0.14, it works fine!

What is happening? How can a check for player version stop my application
from loading? I have installed 8.0.22 which I double checked on the
macromedia website! This happens on both Firefox and IE browsers.

Any help is appreciated,

Kam.
