RE: [flexcoders] call from https to http giving sandbox violation error

[Alex Harui]

If https load http, then you have to use allowInsecureDomain, but our
Security team discourages this configuration as once you do so, a
tampered http swf can get at your https swf's data.

Hi,

I am loading a B1.swf via a http call from a A1.swf which itelf is 
being loadded from a secure server through https. i tried 
Secure.allowdomain() and crossdomain. Probably putting it all in the 
wrong place. Can any one provide some guidance.

RE: [flexcoders] Autosizing Text to fit alloted space

[Alex Harui]

That's definitely not built-in.  You'll have to run your own routine to
figure it out.

Subject: [flexcoders] Autosizing Text to fit alloted space



Does anyone know of an easy way to autosize text (ie. adjust the font 
size) in order for a particular text string to fit into a prealloted 
space? I'd like to have a label that is set to a specific width and 
then put a text string into it and have the size of the font adjust 
itself so that the string fits into the label. 

I've written similar functions using .NET, but am wondering if I must 
do the same in Flex, or is there something that already does this?

Thanks-
Matt Thomas



 

[flexcoders] Re: Panel Componenet Help

[ben.clinkinbeard]

I use the flexcoders web ui so I havent seen your attachment but I am
the one Alex helped out last week. Assuming your issue is the same as
mine, the problem is related to starting your drag by clicking in a
textfield (Panel title). If you put an invisible DisplayObject over
the titleBar and attach your drag handlers to that it should solve the
problem.

HTH,
Ben

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Passing ID from master to detail

[Tracy Spratt]

Honestly, using LSO for this is nuts. If I am understanding fully.

 

Say the value you want is a record id, and you can select it in a
datagrid or list component in the main app, and need to pass it into the
component.

 

In your component, create a public property.  You can implement it as a
public var or with a setter function.  If you want the change of the
value to initiate some action, like call a data service, use a setter. 

 

When you instantiate the component, pass in the value you want using
binding:

Hi Tracy,

Thanks for replying.

Yes, my mxml are in different files. I should prob have said this
earlier -- my canvases are done using the code behind pattern, so I
have a mxml for each canvas, and behind it is an .as that extends
Canvas.

Perhaps I should have specified more. For this example, say there is
a datagrid with a bunch of user information. when you click on a row
/ user, a new canvas is selected in the viewstack w/ more user
detailed information.

Like I said, currently I'm using a Local Shared Obj...what is your
recommended way?

RE: [flexcoders] CFEclipse and Flex Builder

If you're running the standalone version of FB2, then you need to go to the
archives for CFEclipse and download v1.30. This version of CFEclipse will
install correctly with standalone FB2.

[flexcoders] how do I trigger measure (while laying out UIComponents in actionscript)

[Arpit Mathur]

I have tried this code for way too long and am ready to throw in the towel,
so I am really hoping one of you can help me:

I have a custom component based on Canvas that I want to accept a series of
UIComponents as children based on an array of data sent in. So here is how
my code is layed out:

1) I have a set dataProvider() function that accepts an array. If the array
is new, it sets it as an internal variable ( _dataprovider ) and calls
invalidateProperties()

2) In my commitProperties code, I loop through the array and for each member
create an instance of the UIComponent that will represent the data. I also
add them as children calling addChild(). I push all instances created into
another array (called markers).I then call invalidateDisplaylist()

3) In my updateDisplaylist, I check position the instances held on the
markers array.


Here is the clincher: I cant see the instances created since their width and
height is 0. I want to set their width and height based on their
measuredWidth and height. But thats 0. Tracing their initialized status
returns false. How do I trigger them to call their measure()  function???
PLease dont say call invalidateSize()  since I have done that and it doesnt
work. I tried calling validateNow() but that seems to hang my computer.

help !

[flexcoders] Re: no rtmp connection on win xp ?

[ggyao2005]

Hi,

my problem is resolved. What I did were:

1, remove "samples" out of the webapps, no sure whether this is a big 
deal.
2, wait until "RTMP server listening on port ". this is probably 
the main reason, sometimes it seems to take a long time before this 
line appear, if you try to connect to the mxml file before this line 
appear, surely the "url undefined". some times it never appear, I 
need to kill it and restart. 
3, avoid names conflict. I have named query "all" in 
Event/Employee/Contact.hbm.xml, it seems to have conflicting. So I 
changed to "event.all", "employee.all", etc.

[flexcoders] Autosizing Text to fit alloted space

[mthomas1969]

Does anyone know of an easy way to autosize text (ie. adjust the font 
size) in order for a particular text string to fit into a prealloted 
space?  I'd like to have a label that is set to a specific width and 
then put a text string into it and have the size of the font adjust 
itself so that the string fits into the label.  

I've written similar functions using .NET, but am wondering if I must 
do the same in Flex, or is there something that already does this?

Thanks-
Matt Thomas

[flexcoders] Deep copy [clone] a fileReference

RE: [flexcoders] DFS refresh an item from a managed list

[Jeff Vroom]

In your ActionScript code, the Data Management Service (DMS) should be
monitoring the changes your client makes.  If you have
dataService.autoCommit=true (the default), it gets sent to the server.
If you have dataService.autoSyncEnabled=true, it should get pushed to
other clients automatically.  If you have autoCommit=false, you have to
commit it yourself.  

 

If the change is actually noticed on the server side, not on the client,
there is a call you can make on the class DataServiceTransaction called
"updateItem" which is used to push changes to clients.  You first need
to get a DataServiceTransaction instance either by accessing the current
one using the getCurrentDataServiceTransaction or by beginning a new
one.  If you are in a method in your assembler, use the current one.  If
you are in non DMS code, use begin.  In that case, you also should
commit in a finally clause... this api is designed to be used in
conjunction with code that might get rolled back so you can abort
sending any messages if you do not commit.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Jeff

Subject: [flexcoders] DFS refresh an item from a managed list

 

Hi All,

 

In my application, I have a list of items managed by a java assembler.

A client modifies an item of the list,

But how other clients can refresh only the item changed without calling
the fill method and transferring the entire list.

I am looking for a method like dataservice.refresh(targetList, itemID)

 

My problem is urgent.

Any help is appreciated.

So more info, the thing works only if the Browser is not in full screen mode 
and no matter how big it is. I expanded it manually so it covers the entire 
screen and that bug did not happen but once i hit the maximize button on 
firefox and retried i got the panel to get stuck again if i pull towards the 
corner.

[flexcoders] ColdFusion: Do I need a local dev instance to use CF setup with Flex?

This one's never come across my desk before, and I'm at a loss... another
developer (a non-CF guy) is going to be working on some of my projects which
have CF Extensions for RemoteObject hookup with CFC's yada yada... I've
always had CF installed and point to my local instance for project setup.
Because he's not a CF guy, any way for him to point to a remote server so he
doesn't have to install CF?

Try adding the entire library folder (where the library swc lives) to
your project under Library Path as opposed to the individual SWC file,
see if that does the trick.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Selecting multiple gridItems in a Grid?

[Alex Harui]

HTML tables support drag selection which is what you want.  TileList
uses extended selection like in Windows with shift-click, ctrl-click
etc, and keyboard selection using arrow keys, shift & ctrl.

 

You could probably subclass either one and implement it I suppose, but
TileList already has a selection model so there should be less work to
do.

RE: [flexcoders] FlexBuilder feature rich? Not as a development tool.

[Matt Chotin]

Beta 2 essentially exposes the features that we have planned for the
Flex 3 release.  But one thing that we talked about at MAX is how
excited developers should be for Thermo, because it means that we're
going to be able to allow Flex Builder to become even more developer
focused while Thermo can solve more problems for designers.  This means
more engineering effort behind the coding features like you mention.

 

So please file and vote for bugs (can't stress the voting enough) at
http://bugs.adobe.com/flex, it's really the best way for us to gauge
what developer features we need to focus on since you should assume we
are not all-powerful and can't get everything done in a single release.

I have seen a sneak peak a month or 2 ago of FlexBuilder 3. I've
tried to load Flex 3 Beta 1 on my box with no luck. It simply erred
out on the install. Have not tried beta 2 yet. But it is beta so
that is fine.

But, from the sneak peak I saw, there were only a few IDE features
added that still leaves it behind almost every other IDE out there. I
know that Flex 3 will add some basic refactoring features and some
people said wow, that's cool!. But I said, wow, it's about time! My
question... How much effort is Adobe putting into the FlexBuilder IDE
(which we pay for) as it is very behind the times as far as expected
developer productivity features (found in almost all FREE progamming
language IDE's). I've been waiting for some extemely basic ones such as:

- Code formatter to reformat code of sloppy developers not caring
about the format of their code.

- Import organization, which organizes, add/deletes imports as needed.

- Smarter indentation. Cut a section of code from one place in my
file to another, it should re-indent as necessary for the destination.

- Renaming or moving a class should go through the entire project and
refactor for me.

These are just some of the most basic things and the list goes on. 
What, if any, should we expect to see in Flex 3?

Don't get me wrong, I think Flex absolutely rocks! But, I do find
that I lose productivity with these very basic and completely expected
features that I'm use to having.

RE: [flexcoders] Lazy association

[Jeff Vroom]

This is how lazy="true" works today.  It always fetches the ids of the
associated objects which unfortunately for hibernate tends to mean that
you end up querying collection properties on the server twice - once to
get the ids, and once to get the values later on when you try to get the
referenced items on the client.  Partly this is so you can detect
conflicts on these properties... the client gets the entire state of the
parent object so you can see if the collection properties have been
changed before processing an update. 

 

This has been a commonly requested feature and something that we're
working to improve with a new option that just leaves collections on the
server until you access them on the client.  Ideally we will support
paging on these properties as well so we only fetch the values one page
at a time when you do access them.

 

The SequenceManager is responsible for implementing the
autoSyncEnabled=true flag.  It tracks what state is managed on each
active client and uses that information to figure out which changes each
client needs to be pushed.  It is not responsible for the id thing -
that is just how we serialize data to the client right now.

Hi,

 

I have a class named Structure with a one-to-many association to another
class named Column. The Structure class has a property named column who
is a collection of Column. I manage this with Hibernate and my own Dao,
so I use my self coded StructureAsssembler and ColumnAssembler to access
them with the data manager of Flex.

 

In my data-management-config.xml file, I have this :

 

  





true

false

true

 
net.cpaerp.structure.application.business.entity.assembler.Struc
tureAssembler

session











20

















 

  





true

false

false

 
net.cpaerp.structure.application.business.entity.assembler.Colum
nAssembler

session











20

















 

As you see, my relations are < lazy >, and in some way, it works... but
not really. When I fill an AS ArrayCollection of Structure objects with
the fill method of my assembler, it return a collection of Structure,
but a SequenceManager always extract every ids of the column collection
associated with every structure extracted, before returning the
collection to the client. This makes hibernate to extract the columns
from the database without  being needed. I don't think that this is
really lazy... 

 

What is a sequence manager by the way... ?

Any idea how to fix this problem? Do I need to re-install Flex 3?

[flexcoders] Lazy association

[Emmanuel Potvin]

Hi,

 

I have a class named Structure with a one-to-many association to another
class named Column. The Structure class has a property named column who is a
collection of Column. I manage this with Hibernate and my own Dao, so I use
my self coded StructureAsssembler and ColumnAssembler to access them with
the data manager of Flex.

 

In my data-management-config.xml file, I have this :

 

  





true

false

true

 
net.cpaerp.structure.application.business.entity.assembler.Structure
Assembler

session











20

















 

  





true

false

false

 
net.cpaerp.structure.application.business.entity.assembler.ColumnAss
embler

session











20

















 

As you see, my relations are < lazy >, and in some way, it works. but not
really. When I fill an AS ArrayCollection of Structure objects with the fill
method of my assembler, it return a collection of Structure, but a
SequenceManager always extract every ids of the column collection associated
with every structure extracted, before returning the collection to the
client. This makes hibernate to extract the columns from the database
without  being needed. I don't think that this is really lazy. 

 

What is a sequence manager by the way. ?

Yes, you have something else going on.  I routinely access the
Application.application.parameters in a creationComplete handler.

I'm a guy, by the way.

Not sure I understand.  Looks like you're trying to pick up variables
from the url request for your app and they are on
Application.application.parameters.

 

Are you saying that if you check the parameters on creationComplete they
are not there?  Maybe doRequest() is making some assumption.  If you
have setup:

 

creationComplete="doRequest()"

 

then I'd debug inside doRequest

This is very strange.. I think I may be running into some sort of

I have a function called doRequests, where it takes the urlRequests

but..

It only works when I map it to a button or something I have to click. 
If I want it done automatically(creationComplete).. it doesnt work. I

Subject: [flexcoders] adding an event listener to a dynamically added
component

 

I have a search component that allows the user to add new search
criteria on the fly. The search criteria is contained in a custom
component, one row per criteria. The first row is defined like this:

 

Rows can be added by clicking a button which dynamically adds a new
component like so:

var newRow:SearchInputRow = new SearchInputRow(); 

   // add the new component to the VBox 
searchRows.addChild(newRow);


The custom component has a button that can be used to remove any rows
after the first row. The button calls a function that dispatches a
custom event called onRowRemove 

private function doRemoveRow():void{
var e:Event = new Event("onRemoveRow",true);
trace(e);
dispatchEvent(e);

}


[Event(name="onRemoveRow")]


The event fires, but my dynamically added rows never see it because they
are not listening for it. How can I add an event listener for this
custom event to my dynamically created components? 


Thanks in advance,

Rob

Whether the objects are strongly-typed or not, you can stick the AC in
as the Tree's DP, but you'll need a custom ITreeDataDescriptor to tell
the tree what is a branch and what the children are.

Assuming your ArrayCollection contains strongly typed objects, I think
you can make the ArrayCollection itself be the dataprovider for your
tree.  Your class (the data stored in the ArrayCollection) just needs to
implement the get children():Array and get label():String method iirc.

Subject: [flexcoders] How to assign values from a result set to matching
declared variables?

 

I can easily do this in ColdFusion but can't figure it out in FLEX.

I have a database table containing settings for an application. The
table has a "Name" field for the name of a declared variable in my
MXML application and a "Value" field for the initial variable
assignment. For example, the result returned from a remote object
call to the table returns 2 records: 

rs[0].NAME = "pg1Title", rs[0].VALUE = "Page 1 Title"
rs[1].NAME = "pg2Title", rs[1].VALUE = "Page 2 Title"

In my application MXML I have declared 2 variables:
public var pg1Title:String = "";
public var pg2Title:String = "";

In the result event for the remote object call, I want to loop thru
the results and assign each declared variable the VALUE from the
result set associated with the NAME field (which matches the declared
variable's name).

private function onResult(e:ResultEvent):void{
var n:ArrayCollection = e.result as ArrayCollection;
for(var i:uint=0;i

[flexcoders] Using ResourceManager to get the data from a Properties File..no value returned

Hi All,

  I wrote a simple ResourceBundle which is listed below..

  [CODE]
public class MyResourceBundle
{

  private var resourceManager:ResourceManager = null;
  private static var myResourceBundle:MyResourceBundle = null;
  public function MyResourceBundle():void{
init();
  }
  private function init():void{
resourceManager = new ResourceManager();
var resourceBundle:ResourceBundle = new
ResourceBundle("en_US","myBundle1");
resourceManager.addResourceBundle(resourceBundle);

}
public static function getInstance():MyResourceBundle{
   if(dpaResourceBundle==null){
myResourceBundle = new MyResourceBundle();
   }
   return myResourceBundle;
}
private function getResourceBundle():ResourceBundle{
var resourceBundle:ResourceBundle = null;
if(resourceManager!=null){
resourceBundle =ResourceBundle
(resourceManager.getResourceBundle("en_US","myBundle1"));
return resourceBundle;
}
else{
trace("Unable to get the ResourceManager 
!");
return null;
}

}

public function getValue(key:String):String{
var value:String = null;
if(getResourceBundle()!=null){
if(getResourceBundle().hasOwnProperty(key)){
value = 
getResourceBundle().getString(key);
trace("key ="+key+"value ="+value);
return value;
}
else{
trace("Property ="+key+" Doesn't Exists 
!!!");
return "";
}
}
else{
trace("Unable to get the ResourceBundle");
return "";
}
}


}
  [/CODE]

   Now i have placed the properties file myBundle1_en_US.properties in
the same folder as the Above File..

   When i try to read the values from this file i am not getting any
info as the hasOwnProperty() is always returning false;

[Matt Horn]

Yes, in the Flex 3 docs on labs:

http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/flex3/html/

Here's how to find the deep linking doc:

Click on Flex 3 Developer's Guide.
Click on Flex Programming Topics.
Click on Deep Linking.

Got it...

this is needed..

private function initVars():void{
req1 = Application.application.parameters.req1;
req2 = Application.application.parameters.req2;
}

and initVars() is called on the application creationComplete.
works like a charm...

ROFLMAO. My husband has been sitting over there laughing at me 
cussing a blue streak. I went back to Matt Chotin's example and saw 
that it worked regardless of the different image sizes, so I looked 
again at his code. In the Image tag I found this text:

verticalAlign="bottom" horizontalAlign="center" 

So it appears these properties have existed since at least FB 2 but 
they are not documented and do not appear in code hinting. If this 
post helps one other person struggling with this issue, I feel this 
entire week or so I have spent wrestling with this problem will have 
been worth it.

Thanks for your patience, Alex, and for being a good sport through 
all my frustration!

RE: [flexcoders] Re: MultiPurpose ItemRenderer

[Alex Harui]

OK, glad you got it working.  I didn't see those properties either.

 

FWIW:

 

Your example had verticalAlign="bottom" which would force the hlist to
the bottom but also was a factor in the images/movies moving up and
down.  I think you may want to use "absolute" layout and constraints.

 

If you put real xml in your .xml file, you can load it via HTTPService
instead of going through ExternalInterface.

 

I had changed ImgViewer to look like this.  It seems simpler as it
reuses the same Image tag for both images and movies.  You can remove
centerImage() and use the align styles instead

I suppose it is comforting that it was more than a few minute fix for

But I found that the Image tag does, in fact, have a verticalAlign

[flexcoders] How to assign values from a result set to matching declared variables?

[wlbagent]

I can easily do this in ColdFusion but can't figure it out in FLEX.

I have a database table containing settings for an application.  The
table has a "Name" field for the name of a declared variable in my
MXML application and a "Value" field for the initial variable
assignment.  For example, the result returned from a remote object
call to the table returns 2 records: 

rs[0].NAME = "pg1Title", rs[0].VALUE = "Page 1 Title"
rs[1].NAME = "pg2Title", rs[1].VALUE = "Page 2 Title"

In my application MXML I have declared 2 variables:
public var pg1Title:String = "";
public var pg2Title:String = "";

In the result event for the remote object call, I want to loop thru
the results and assign each declared variable the VALUE from the
result set associated with the NAME field (which matches the declared
variable's name).

private function onResult(e:ResultEvent):void{
  var n:ArrayCollection = e.result as ArrayCollection;
  for(var i:uint=0;i

[flexcoders] url request variables

[Jayson]

I stumbled upon this example posted by tracy, maybe she will see 
this :), and it's exactly what I need.. except I can't get it to work.

example link:
http://www.cflex.net/showFileDetails.cfm?
ObjectID=198&Object=File&ChannelID=1

my code:
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; 
layout="vertical">













According to the example, I should be able to do "...requestTest.mxml?
req1=test&req2=blah" and it will fill in the values for req1 and 
req2. It won't work.. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.. or 
what the deal is, or if this is even possible with flex (I hope it 
is).

I'm not sure what to search for on this matter.. as everything I do 
search for turns up nothing of relevance. Can anyone shine some light 
on this for me?

Thanks!

I have submitted an ECR FR-APOLLO-00096.

I thought that maintainAspectRation was designed to allow images to 
scale gracefully.  I think that the root issue here is that there is 
a bug in the way Flex is deciding when to scale content.  If I have 
scaleContent and maintainAspectRatio both set to true, I'd expect 
that the content would size itself within the available space 
regardless of whether the control is set to a percentage of the 
container size or not.  However, that is not what happens, so you get 
giant content in small containers with scrollbars.

I think if the feature worked as expected you would indeed be correct.

You would think they would then step up to the plate and provide

RE: [flexcoders] Referencing elements in a component

[Tracy Spratt]

TileList is a data-driven control.  And to be accurate, it does not have
a component in it, but rather has an itemRenderer property that takes a
component class value.  This is important, because itemRenderers have
rules entirely their own and are much more complicated than, say, a
component in a Tile container.

 

With data-driven components, you almost never access the individual item
controls or contents, like the stepper.  Instead, the item renderer
should update a property in the associated dataProvider item.  You then
use the dataProvider to get the value from the outside.

 

The second issue you note is related.  Itemrenderers are recycled and
only the visible ones, plus a few for buffering, even exist.  When you
scroll, or when the underlying data changes, all the visible renderers
get a new dataProvider item and refresh themselves, using the data in
the item.  If you have a control, like a stepper, that does not have its
value set from the dataProvider item, then you will get seemingly random
values in that control.

 

Custom item renderers are tricky to deal with.  Just note the huge
number of posts asking about them.   There is no shortcut to learning
about them.  Thee are many examples, at all levels available.  Google is
probably the best place to start, or go straight to the Flex docs of the
Flex cookbook, etc.

Hi,

I have TileList (Shopping basket), with a component in it. 

The tilelist has a numeric stepper displayed in the component. There 
is a change event on the stepper, that calls a function that 
increases or decreases the number of that item in the basket. 

I have two problems, the first is that there is also a button 
to 'remove item from basket' in the function for this I cannot get it 
to reference the numeric stepper (ns.value = ns.value -1) how do you 
reference items inside a component from external (component to 
external is 'outerDocument'). I've seen the 'target.xxx', is that 
anything to do with it.

The second is that I have many items in the TileList, sometimes if I 
active the second numeric stepper it affects the first item. How do 
you reference a specific index, or row of the tilelist?

Thanks
Shaun

I was going to see how it worked if the 'real' component in the Flex
project 
extended the code from Thermo. The designer can do his own thing, and as
long 
as the id's of components don't change it might work really well.

You have to use an earlier CFEclipse release. The latest release does not work 
properly with FB2 standalone.

RE: [flexcoders] Passing ID from master to detail

[Tracy Spratt]

There are much simpler ways.

 

If your two canvases are in the same mxml file(class) then they share
the the same scope and you can bind or access values directly.  If they
are implemented in different mxml files, then it is a tiny bit more
complicated.

 

Same scope

Declare an id in any mx tag you want to be able to access.  Then you can
access values by doing something like this:

in AS:

myText1.text = myText2.text; 

myText1.text = myComboBox.selectedItem.myProperty

 

Binding In mxml:

Subject: [flexcoders] Passing ID from master to detail

 

Hi,

I've been programming for awhile, but am new to Flex and was wondering
what the best way of passing values from screen to screen is.

Currently, I have two canvases which have a master detail
relationship. When I click on a button in the master canvas, I want
to pass the record id to the detail canvas so that the detail canvas
can query the server for the details data. simple master detail.

To code this in flex, what I did was when the button was clicked on
the master, I saved the record id into a Local Shared Object, and when
my Detail canvas appears, I grab the id from said Local Shared Object
and make my server side request.

This works fine, but I was wondering -- is this the Best Practice way?
I haven't seen much by way of design patterns etc for flex
pages(I've seen the AS book) so was wondering if I should be doing
this differently.

Thanks

[flexcoders] Errors...Somewhere

[Matt]

Is there an easier way to debug Flash content?  I am using the
debugging player embedded in my browser, but I don't get line numbers
or really explicit details.  I do get a stack trace for which I am
very thankful, but in a case like I'm experiencing now it doesn't
really help:

ArgumentError: Error #2004: One of the parameters is invalid.

That references no code that I've written and the problem only seems
to appear every now and again. I haven't been able to narrow it down
very well because in the application dozens of things are happening at
the time this occurs. Most of the time it works fine, but then this
just pops up and asks me if I want to Continue or Dismiss All.  Is
there any way for me to catch this exception or get further details
about what is happening?

More necessary at the moment, has anyone else seen this that can give
me details on how to fix it?

Thanks

I know that Builder 3 beta 2 standalone certainly doesn't play well with 
Subversion, for instance.

Re: [flexcoders] Change style on each button on a ToggleButtonBar

Thank you very much, after a couple of test, I managed to make it work. 
I tested it with Embeded elements and it worked fine (after I realize

was not working).

Do it the other way around (install Eclipse, install CFE, install Flex Builder

RE: [flexcoders] VO from WebService not being translated?

[Samuel R. Neff]

Web Services do not create custom VO's in Flex 2 or in Flex 3 prior to Beta
2.  The RemoteClass tag that Jim Hayes mentioned is only for remoting.

In Flex 3 beta 2 there are two new options for working with compile-time
objects and web services:

1.  WSDL Importer.  You can use the WSDL importer under Data to create a web
service proxy class which creates AS3 objects matching those that will be
returned by the web service.

2.  SchemaTypeRegistry.  You can use the new mx.rpc.xml.SchemaTypeRegistry
class to associate an AS3 class with a QName so the Web Service runtime code
will use your native objects.  Not much info or discussion on this yet, but
it's there and looks very promising.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/flex/3/langref/mx/rpc/xml/SchemaTypeRegistry.

HTH,

Sam

Subject: [flexcoders] VO from WebService not being translated?

I have a .NET web service that sends a VO back as a result for one of
its methods.  The VO has 5 properties (4 strings, 1 uint), and one
property that is another VO that contains 2 strings.  Looks like this:

ClientInfo
  uint
  string1
  string2
  string3
  string4
  ErrorObject
string1
string2

This information gets returned to my Flex app no problem, but when I
try to cast it to my client side ClientInfo object, it comes back as
null or errors out.  I'm trying like this inside my event handler:

var clientInfo:ClientInfo = evt.result as ClientInfo;

after this line, clientInfo is set to null.  The object has the exact
properties that it should, so what gives?  I'm new to Flex, so I'm not
sure if I'm expecting too much, I just kinda figured this would work...

This would be nice to have but I don't see it as essential.

Ctrl + Shift + O already organizes your imports. There is no auto
add/delete (which would be nice) but unused classes don't get compiled
into the app so its really just an aesthetics issue.

This was something I had never seen before I used Visual Studio a
while back but it was definitely way cool.

Thats what the refactoring in FB3 does.

I agree most of these would be (very) nice to have but I don't think
any of them are deal-breakers. I am also curious which free IDEs have
these. I guess I have heard the standard Java editor in Eclipse is
pretty awesome but that has been around for quite a while and has a
large community of developers around it. You also have to realize that
FB2 was really a 1.0 product. The 2 was only to align it with the
framework version but the tool was brand new. I think FB3 has a pretty
decent set of improvements and considering the upgrade from FB2 is
only $99 I think its a pretty fair deal.

As the platform and tooling mature I am sure we'll see most if not all
of these features added. In the meantime there are plenty of Eclipse
plugin development tutorials out there so get cracking! :)

RE: [flexcoders] CFEclipse and Flex Builder

[Tim Ashworth]

Flex Builder standalone install with CF extensions and updates all done.
Then I go to the CFEclipse through Help -> Software Updates etc (i.e. to the
CFEclipse site through Flex Builder).  When it's installed basically they
seem to break each other.  I get error messages like being told it can't run
the CFC wizard and it breaks the Coldfusion / Flex Wizard in Flex builder in
that it'll generate the AS files, but can't generate the CF.  It tells me
that there's something wrong with the plugins.xml.  Exactly what it's a bit
vague about..

If you don't use the refactor mode, it doesn't get refactored ? Sounds like a 
feature to me.

[flexcoders] Passing ID from master to detail

[stlum9495]

Hi,

I've been programming for awhile, but am new to Flex and was wondering
what the best way of passing values from screen to screen is.

Currently, I have two canvases which have a master detail
relationship.  When I click on a button in the master canvas, I want
to pass the record id to the detail canvas so that the detail canvas
can query the server for the details data.  simple master detail.

To code this in flex, what I did was when the button was clicked on
the master, I saved the record id into a Local Shared Object, and when
my Detail canvas appears, I grab the id from said Local Shared Object
and make my server side request.

This works fine, but I was wondering -- is this the Best Practice way?
   I haven't seen much by way of design patterns etc for flex
pages(I've seen the AS book) so was wondering if I should be doing
this differently.

Thanks

They need to rewrite the design mode of Flex Builder to be cross platform so 
they can put it in the Linux version.
In doing so, they have the chance to make it stand alone as well.

[flexcoders] Re: Embedding assets and file size

[bw71]

Can you give a short example of how you would use styles in this case?

Let's say I have one icon used by two components, each component with
a unique style.

.bigPanel {
  icon: "@Embed(...,symbol='MoneyIcon";
}

.smallPanel {
  icon: "@Embed(...,symbol="MoneyIcon";
}

Is that what you're suggesting?  And Flex is smart enough not to embed
that resource multiple times?

Thanks.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: VO from WebService not being translated?

[Jim Hayes]

So my first wild guess was not correct !
 
Now for the second ...
 
Does it understand the "errorObject" ? I'm thinking that the errorObject
will also need a RemoteClass tag, if it does not already ?
If not then that could be where conversion fails.
 
The getters/setters as opposed to plain public vars shouldn't have any
influence in this case, I've used a mixture of both before (with
remoting).

Did I post too large a download here?  I can post something smaller

[flexcoders] Re: VO from WebService not being translated?

[mrand02]

I've tried it with and without that.  As of now, my client side VO
looks like this:

package net.imageplant.mediamanager.services
{
[RemoteClass(alias="net.imageplant.ClientInfo")]
public class ClientInfo
{
private var _nClientId:uint;
private var _strName:String;
private var _strDomain:String;
private var _strStyle:String;
private var _strLogo:String;
private var _errorObj:ErrorObject;

public function ClientInfo()
{

}

public function get id():uint
{
return _nClientId;
}

public function set id(nClientId:uint):void
{
_nClientId = nClientId;
}

public function get name():String
{
return _strName;
}

public function set name(strName:String):void
{
_strName = strName;
}

public function get domain():String
{
return _strDomain;
}

public function set domain(strDomain:String):void
{
_strDomain = strDomain;
}

public function get style():String
{
return _strStyle;
}

public function set style(strStyle:String):void
{
_strStyle = strStyle;
}

public function get logo():String
{
return _strLogo;
}

public function set logo(strLogo:String):void
{
_strLogo = strLogo;
}

public function get error():ErrorObject
{
return _errorObj;
}

public function set error(errorObj:ErrorObject):void
{
_errorObj = new ErrorObject();
_errorObj = errorObj;
}
}
}

Is it better to have getter/setter methods, or should all the
properties just be public?  Does it matter?  I'm pretty sure I've
tried both ways with no success...

Hi 
all,

 

I've unsuccessfully 
tried to add CFEclipse to Flex Builder 2.  After several uninstall and 
reinstalls I've given up.  I want to develop in CF and Flex and would 
rather use one IDE.  Am I being thick, or am I just barking up the wrong 
tree?

 

Cheers

[flexcoders] Re: [flex_india:3558] Re: Objects over socket and AMF encoding

[learner]

Thanks Malik,

Requirement is urgent. and we I had settled down on sending the string and
retrieving the string from server .
But your answer gives me hope..it will be great if u can make the concept
available. I will always prefer object serialization over any string
exchange.


Thanks  a ton
Regards
PS

RE: [flexcoders] VO from WebService not being translated?

[Jim Hayes]

Do you have the RemoteClass tag on your flex VO class ? That's what I
needed to fix that problem (it was flourine remoting, I'm guessing the
webservice needs the same)
 
[RemoteClass(alias="com.yourdomain.vo.YourServerVO")]
Public class YourFlexVO
{

Subject: [flexcoders] VO from WebService not being translated?
 
I have a .NET web service that sends a VO back as a result for one of
its methods. The VO has 5 properties (4 strings, 1 uint), and one
property that is another VO that contains 2 strings. Looks like this:

ClientInfo
uint
string1
string2
string3
string4
ErrorObject
string1
string2

This information gets returned to my Flex app no problem, but when I
try to cast it to my client side ClientInfo object, it comes back as
null or errors out. I'm trying like this inside my event handler:

var clientInfo:ClientInfo = evt.result as ClientInfo;

after this line, clientInfo is set to null. The object has the exact
properties that it should, so what gives? I'm new to Flex, so I'm not
sure if I'm expecting too much, I just kinda figured this would work...
