[flexcoders] asdocs for as3 and ant files

[learner]

Hi All,
I am trying to access asdocs , but its not there in my flexbuilder's help.

I tried and search in the flex installation directory.I found a folder
asdocs
here  :
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\moxie\asdoc\

I found the index.hml in template folder inside asdoc directory..but ".page
not found" is displayed when I open the it.
I see one "build.xml " in  asdoc directory ..after running this ant script
it gives me a build fail error.

I see one more ant file in the framework directory of installation (here
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\moxie\frameworks\)

Can some body please explain me for what these build.xmls' are there and
what is the use...and also where can I find the asdocs for the as3 clasess.

Thanks in advance.
Regards

What I mean by array objects, is basically making dynamic identifiers

The issue at hand is. I am creating dynamic datagrid columns. The data
for these columns are in two arrays. The first array holds the data
for hte column headers. And the second holds the data for the rows
with in the datagrid.

I am trying to defy how a normal datagrid works. Instead of having the
data for each column be in the same array index. I am trying to do it
where Column 1, has an array of items, and it only these rows in
Column 1 are affected by these items. Column 2 has, has an array of

And so on.

RE: [flexcoders] Searching array for item

[Alex Harui]

Ah yes, keep forgetting about that sort requirement.

 

So yes, your code is fine, or Graham can just write his own search loop.

 

FWIW, truly hard-core folks would not use [i] to access a dataprovider
as it may not implement IList and only ICollectionView, but nobody has
yet shown me such an implementation.

I have tried the method you suggest, but it did not act the way I

which sorts my grid.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Problem with repeater and image ???

[Tracy Spratt]

One primary benefit is that you can forget about getRepeaterItem(). Pass
in a reference to the entire item,and implement a getter and setter, and
your event handlers have direct access to the whole item through the
event.target property.  Type the item specifically and avoid the "Class
XML is not an IEventDispatcher" warnings

 

Defining a click event is easier to do and to read.

 

It is generally cleaner and easier to write and maintain.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Best Method for Dynamic Custom Components

 

Hi Ben,

Thank you for your response on this question.

I am starting to think I am going about this all wrong. What I am
trying to do is dynamically add and remove a group of custom
components to my application.

I am sending 2 HttpRequests, one returns a list of locations that need
to be filled by people on a given date, the second returns a list of
people who are assigned to each of these locations on the same date
(if any are assigned at all).

With the first list, the locations, I want to add a custom component
for each location (this is what I am doing when I instantiate my
callLabel component. Then after I call the schedule HttpRequest, I
need to add a person for each location if there is a person scheduled.
If none is scheduled, an input field remains blank and would be filled
by adding in a person.

The reason I am building an arrayCollection of my custom component is
to be able to add the names of the people when my second database call
is made. I understand that each component should have a unique id so
that it can be referenced and modified at a later time. What is the
best way to do this when you are adding a number of components like I
am doing? The only way I have to reference these is by a location_id
which I have in my database and is unique between tables.

I was attempting to build an array of components that uses this
location_id as the components unique identifier so that when I
received more information, I could update the component properties or
call its methods.

Things get a tad more complex, when a user chooses another date, I
need to destroy these components and add a new set of locations and
people for the newly selected day.

I am hoping this helps to clear up what I am doing and if you are
willing to help with this situation

Thanks

the data for column 2, in the next two rows, and all teh data for column
3 in the last 4 rows.

Here is the code that I am using to create this data.

private fu! nction createProvider():void{
columnArr = new Array();   
thisArr= new Array();   
dailyData = new Array();   
// iterate through result array and add new items to the arrays
for(var i:Number = 0; i < resultArr.length; i++){

// add new item to the array
columnArr.push({column:resultArr[i].colName,

// set temp array to resultArr.child
dailyData! = resultArr[i].children;

var dataObj:Object = new Object();
var identifier:String = "adcl" + i; 
dataObj[identifier] = dailyData[n].adcl;
//trace(dataObj[identifier]);
thisArr.push(dataObj);
}}



This is the function I am using to create my datagrid.

private function buildGrid():void {

Hello,

Now in Brasil is sunday, and i waste all my day trying reduce swf size
of my modules... 

I had project with 11 modules... each module had approximately 90kb,
because in my project i'm using framework caching teached in this
video (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/videos/flex3rsls/
 ), all
modules are inside of my main project.

I try to put each module in separete project, in project properties in
my main project i put this on compile line,
link-report=D:/Daniel/Trabalho/bms/painel_adm/report.xml to generate
report.xml .

In each of my modules i put
load-externs=D:/Daniel/Trabalho/bms/painel_adm/report.xml to try
reduce swf size of my modules.

But the problem is now each module had approximately 250kb, bigger
than with modules inside a single project.

What can i do to fix this problems?

Round-off error in the Math libs? It does return a value very close to

Troy.

 

Re: [flexcoders] Math.cos...?

[Jon Bradley]

That's pretty much it.

To a computer Math.cos(Math.PI/2) is not 0. It's really close to 0,  
because PI is an infinite sequence and a computer can "only" store it  
as a double precision floating point number (ie, a fixed value).


What you get back from this calculation is the error bound of the  
computer basically, which you can then use for  numerical  
calculations, ie, MathLib.ERROR_BOUND = Math.cos(Math.PI/2). Then you  
can feasibly use if you need numerical accuracy.


IE, if result == MathLib.ERROR_BOUND, result = 0.

Numerical accuracy in AS2 is not equivalent to that of AS3. I ran  
into this while porting the Mersenne Twister algorithm to AS2 - I  
couldn't even store 2^32 as a hex value in AS2 (0x1, which  
equals 4294967296).


At least we can be somewhat numerically accurate now...

good luck,

jon

Re: [flexcoders] Math.cos...?

[Troy Gilbert]

> Why does Math.cos(Math.PI/2) not return zero?

Round-off error in the Math libs? It does return a value very close to
0 (1.7xe-17).

[flexcoders] Re: Best Method for Dynamic Custom Components

[donvoltz]

Hi Ben,

Thank you for your response on this question.

I am starting to think I am going about this all wrong. What I am
trying to do is dynamically add and remove a group of custom
components to my application.

I am sending 2 HttpRequests, one returns a list of locations that need
to be filled by people on a given date, the second returns a list of
people who are assigned to each of these locations on the same date
(if any are assigned at all).

With the first list, the locations, I want to add a custom component
for each location (this is what I am doing when I instantiate my
callLabel component. Then after I call the schedule HttpRequest, I
need to add a person for each location if there is a person scheduled.
If none is scheduled, an input field remains blank and would be filled
by adding in a person.

The reason I am building an arrayCollection of my custom component is
to be able to add the names of the people when my second database call
is made. I understand that each component should have a unique id so
that it can be referenced and modified at a later time. What is the
best way to do this when you are adding a number of components like I
am doing?  The only way I have to reference these is by a location_id
which I have in my database and is unique between tables.

I was attempting to build an array of components that uses this
location_id as the components unique identifier so that when I
received more information, I could update the component properties or
call its methods.

Things get a tad more complex, when a user chooses another date, I
need to destroy these components and add a new set of locations and
people for the newly selected day.

I am hoping this helps to clear up what I am doing and if you are
willing to help with this situation

Thanks

[flexcoders] xml data and drag related questions

[g07m5064]

I have two questions. First, I have the following xml file:

http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>

Lewis Hamilton
22
English
Motorsport
Everything seems to come easy for the F1 ace. Hamilton
Academical, you might say. Never mind. He's British, very good, and
steered his way round a spying row and team turmoil. And can you ever
tire (tyre?) of seeing him as a cheeky karting schoolboy...?


Ricky Hatton
29
English
Boxing
Timing is crucial for the Manchester 'Hitman'. And his
super fight against Floyd Mayweather could not have been scheduled
better.



I am buffled by the fact that the comments node is not accessible i.e.
I cannot display its contents in a grid though I have no problems with
other nodes. 
I am not sure of the reason. Any ideas?

My second question is assuming I wanted to drag a row from the grid
into an HBox container with intentions of adding items
to an arraycollection so that the dragged items can effectively be
diplayed in another grid found in another 'page'.

This is my code for the drop function:

private function doDragDrop(event:DragEvent):void
{
var data:Object = event.dragSource.dataForFormat("items") as
Sport; //Sport is class
draggedData.addItem(data); //draggedData is an instance of
ArrayCollection whose contents will be used as dataProvider for the
other grid
}   count++;// The HBox will display the count value of number
of dragged items

[flexcoders] Re: Identify Function Name

[ilikeflex]

Hi Alex

Thanks for the reply.

If you could just tell me how to get the function name that will 
solve my problem.

function A()
{
  trace("function execute" + functionName);
}

If i execute the function it should print

"function execute A"

Thanks
Rajan

Re: [flexcoders] problem using a single clickevent for multiple datagrids (SOLVED)

[Ben]

Instead of using argument binding with a more verbose set of code in the
RemoteObject tag, I used Explicit argument passing in my pickRow() method
and used the currentTarget keyword to grab the item I clicked from.

Thanks
ben

public function pickRow(event:ListEvent):void {
if (event.rowIndex > 0) {
WS.GetInstructorDetail2.send(
event.currentTarget.selectedItem.InstructorId);
WS.ListContractorRates.send(
event.currentTarget.selectedItem.InstructorId);
currentState='detailTabs';
}

[flexcoders] Searching array for item

[candysmate]

I wish to search an ArrayCollection for a match to the text in a
textInput component and then set the selectedIndex of a dataGrid to
the result.

I tried:

invoiceApprovalGrid.selectedIndex =
adviceApprovalCollection.getItemIndex(approveAdviceNumber.text);

without success. Any pointers most welcomed.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Embedding Flash font

[Jon Bradley]

No prob! Happy I was able to help.

I banged my head against the wall on that one for a while. Took me a  
bit of research to find out that Flash exports symbols for embedded  
fonts with it's own formatting. Now, it would be nice if there were  
just an automated way to deal with this.


good luck,

[flexcoders] Reduce size of my module! Really boring....

[danielvlopes]

Hello,

Now in Brasil is sunday, and i waste all my day trying reduce swf size
of my modules... 

I had project with 11 modules... each module had approximately 90kb,
because in my project i'm using framework caching teached in this
video (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/videos/flex3rsls/), all
modules are inside of my main project.

I try to put each module in separete project, in project properties in
my main project i put this on compile line,
link-report=D:/Daniel/Trabalho/bms/painel_adm/report.xml to generate
report.xml .

In each of my modules i put
load-externs=D:/Daniel/Trabalho/bms/painel_adm/report.xml to try
reduce swf size of my modules.

But the problem is now each module had approximately 250kb, bigger
than with modules inside a single project.

What can i do to fix this problems?

Re: [flexcoders] Embedding Flash font

[Jon Bradley]

I'm guessing because it's not recognizing the embedded font - you're  
seeing the character from the default font, not the embedded font.


A few things I try to make sure of:

1. Don't name the embedded font in the Flash 8 swf file the same as  
the system font.


2. Open the Flash 8 SWF back up into Flash 8 IDE (or CS3 IDE). When  
you do that, do a list variables - Debug > List Variables. Make note  
of the 'exported' font name that Flash used for the font. That name  
is what you'll use in Flex.


For example, on using a pixel font (Kroeger 05_56), I exported the  
Flash 8 SWF file, the embedded symbol name ended up as "kroeger  
05_56_8pt_st". And in Flex, I used this in the CSS as follows:


@font-face {
src: url(../fonts/Kroeger.swf) ;
fontFamily: "kroeger 05_56_8pt_st";
font-weight: normal;
}

And defining the usage of that font, recognizing that in this case  
it's a pixel font and doesn't use the advanced anti aliasing


.assetInfoTitle
{
color:#66;
fontFamily: "kroeger 05_56_8pt_st";
font-weight: normal;
fontSize: 8;
fontAntiAliasType: normal;
}

Hopefully that will get you on your way.

best,

Jon

[flexcoders] Re: Best Method for Dynamic Custom Components

[ben.clinkinbeard]

The code you're trying for issue #1 doesn't work because  your
collection is holding formField instances, not just IDs. To retrieve
an item with a specific id you could do this:

function getFieldByID(idToFind:Number):FormField
{
   for each(var ff:FormField in callLabelCollection)
   {
  if(ff.callLocation_id == idToFind)
 return ff;
   }
   return null;
}

Not sure I completely understand issue #2 but you can always use
addItem() to add items to an ArrayCollection.

HTH,
Ben

Use a custom component for the repeated view, it simplifies things like

When user click on button everything work, but whe click image this

mx.core.FlexLoader and there is no default value." , anyone know some
way to fix this?

ff.callLocationId = item..callLocation_id;
ff.allowableDataFlag = item..deptCategory;
ff.callSelectedDate = mysqlDate.format(calendarSelector.selectedDate);
callLabelCollection.addItem(ff);
addChild(ff);
}

This runs through the loop a total of 16 times to build my array
collection.

Now in a custom event handler, when the user selects a given date, I
query a new table to determine who is scheduled in any of these 16
locations on the selected date.

What I need to do now is to set another parameter of the custom
component based on the callLocationId that I set in my array collection.

So for this I have 2 questions

1) how do I access the array at a given callLocationId from the array
collection above?

for this I have tried

var someFF:formField =
callLabelCollection.getItemIndex(item..callLocation_id) as formField;

but am not getting any results

and 

2) how do I now add additional fields to this array to the array
collection?


Thanks for any help

Re: [flexcoders] XMLList

[Ben Marchbanks]

Interest to know if anyone has been able to make this work.

I struggled with trying to use variables in filtering XMLList without success.

[flexcoders] Re: CB dataProvider - can it be filenames in a folder (maybe with CF7.0.2)?

[shawn.gibson]

No, you understand it, that's what I'm aiming for - a text rep. of a
part of the filesystem, in this case all the titles of all files in
one particular folder somewhere under the webroot passed into Flex as
data of some sort. Thanks Tracy. 

I'm guessing my other response (thinking I need to use the
 tag) was probably at least close enough to try something
out, and come back with what I have from there...methinks.

[flexcoders] Re: Dynamic Array Object Keys

[Jeremy Rottman]

I got this part figured out, however I have run into another issue with
getting this fixed. Why I finally populate the datagrid with data, the
data comes out with all the data for column 1 in the first 4 rows, all
the data for column 2, in the next two rows, and all teh data for column
3 in the last 4 rows.

This is an example of what it looks like


NAME 1  NAME 2  NAME 3arrayData1  arrayData2
arrayData3  arrayData4 arrayData5 
arrayData6
Here is the code that I am using to create this data.

 private function createProvider():void{
 columnArr = new Array();
 thisArr= new Array();
 dailyData = new Array();
 // iterate through result array and add new items to the arrays
 for(var i:Number = 0; i < resultArr.length; i++){

 // add new item to the array
 columnArr.push({column:resultArr[i].colName,
dataField:"adcl" + i});

 // set temp array to resultArr.child
 dailyData = resultArr[i].children;

 // iterate through child array
 for(var n:Number = 0; n < dailyData.length; n++){
 var dataObj:Object = new Object();
 var identifier:String = "adcl" + i;
 dataObj[identifier] = dailyData[n].adcl;
 //trace(dataObj[identifier]);
 thisArr.push(dataObj);
 }
 }



This is the function I am using to create my datagrid.

 private function buildGrid():void {
 var dgc:DataGridColumn;
 var aColumnsNew:Array = dg.columns;
 for(var i:int = 0; i < columnArr.length; i++){
 dgc = new DataGridColumn();
 dgc.width = 30;
 dgc.headerText = columnArr[i].column;
 dgc.dataField = columnArr[i].dataField;
 aColumnsNew.push(dgc);
 }
 dg.columns = aColumnsNew;
 dg.dataProvider = thisArr;
