Re: [flexcoders] Copying xml node attributes
I've not got the code anymore as I'm doing it a different way but I tried
something like this:
var attributesToCopy:XML = new XML (nodeName attr1=var1 attr2=var2 /);
var copyTarget:Xml = new XML (nodeName /);
for (attributeName in attributesToCopy.attributes())
{
[EMAIL PROTECTED] = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
for a start the attributes() array that is returned only seems to hold the
attribute values not the names. I also don't think the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
works.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex2Gateway Security Question
by default you can only invoke remote functions, not public ones. To allow public functions to be called from a flex front-end you need to change de configuration of the ColdFusion destination.

Re: [flexcoders] crossdomain.xml... real or not-so-real security?
The use case I've heard that makes sense to me that does provide security is this. Say you have a bunch of FLVs stored on your server and you let some people access those from their site. And at some point you discover that someone has been abusing that privilege and racking up huge bandwidth charges for you. So you add the cross domain and deny access to certain sites. Then you can still stream them out, but the friend that posted it to slashdot is no longer able to. Make sense? It's not a lot of security in my opinion, but it works. There are ways around it, like proxies, but then those people will be using the bandwidth themselves as well.

[flexcoders] Flex2Gateway Security Question
OK, I have come across something that I find VERY disturbing. It appears that the Flex2Gateway can invoke any access=remote or access=public CFFunction. I have developed a very large OO application for use with a Flex front end. My gateway components are all declared with remote access functions but their roles are properly set to NOT allow unauthorized access. The model objects all have their methods declared public with no roles defined... because, well, i assumed they couldn't be invoked directly from the web. Does anyone know if it is possible to change the scope of what the Flex2Gateway will allow access to? Perhaps I am off base here... maybe there is some higher level security which I am missing.

[flexcoders] Collapse Panel
Hi guys,
I extended a collapse panel to add the contraction feature. The problem is
that before contracting the panel, its increases its size with the content.
However, after contracting the panel it restores your original size that
the content area was scrolling.That behavior happens because the height
property of the component is configured to a fixed value in the
collapseAction method. How can I restore the original height of the panel
while maintaining the the increase with the content behavior?

super.createChildren();
collapseButtonDown = new Button();
collapseButtonDown.width = 20;
collapseButtonDown.height = 20;

collapseButtonDown.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,

[flexcoders] Re: Save XML to mySQL and retrieve back to Flex
To get the xml into the database via some server side technology the xml will need to get converted into string format at some point. When you retrieve it from the database via server side tech, it will again be as a string, you will have to convert it back into a proper xml object at some point, either on the server or in the flex client. I don't think there is any way around that. I have done the same thing for many projects and have never had a problem. The database thinks you're saving a huge string (which it is) and actionscript can quickly parse a large xml string back into an XML object very quickly. Go for the easy, clean, quick solution.

Mmmm.. I guess I didn't describe my code... did you look at it?
This is clockwise drawing of a rectangle:
CLOCKWISE : Top Left - Top Right - Bottom Right - Bottom Left -
Top Left
target.moveTo(x, y);
target.lineTo(x+width, y);
target.lineTo(x+width, y+height);
target.lineTo(x, y+height);
target.lineTo(x, y);
This is counter-clockwise drawing of a rectangle (reverse order):
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE: Top Left - Bottom Left - Bottom Right - Top
Right - Top Left
target.moveTo(x,y);
target.lineTo(x, y+height);
target.lineTo(x+width,y+height)
target.lineTo(x+width,y);
target.lineTo(x,y);
You draw multiple closed shapes on one target (sprite, movieclip,
whatever) BEFORE you end the fill. It's a single graphics drawing
session on a single object. The direction that you draw the points
will determine whether or not they subtract or combine. You don't
create multiple 'sprites' or objects.
Below is the code from your post after this one modified (but untested).
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
// Draw a rectangular mask to darken the cropped out parts of
the image
var myMask:Sprite = new Sprite();
myMask.graphics.beginFill(0x00);
myMask.graphics.drawRect(0,0,unscaledWidth,unscaledHeight);
var x:Number = (unscaledWidth - frameWidth)/2;
var y:Number = (unscaledHeight - frameHeight)/2;
myMask.moveTo(x,y);
myMask.lineTo(x, y+frameHeight);
myMask.lineTo(x+frameWidth, y+frameHeight);
myMask.lineTo(x+frameWidth, y);
myMask.lineTo(x,y);
myMask.graphics.endFill();
myMask.alpha = .75;
this.addChild(myMask);
}
With a proper drawRect routine that would let you draw a rectangle
in reverse (counter-clockwise), you might end up with the following.
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
// Draw a rectangular mask to darken the cropped out parts of
the image
var myMask:Sprite = new Sprite();
myMask.graphics.beginFill(0x00);
// Give me a fill
myMask.graphics.drawRect(0,0,unscaledWidth,unscaledHeight);
// Now cut a hole out of that fill
myMask.graphics.drawRectReverse(0,0,unscaledWidth,unscaledHeight);
myMask.graphics.endFill();
myMask.alpha = .75;
this.addChild(myMask);
}
In my applications I have a Graphics class that has a method called
drawFrame. It takes the outer and inner rectangle and draws a
cutout frame. That should be easy to write
drawFrame( outer:Rectangle, inner:Rectangle);
good luck,
jon
Re: [flexcoders] Re: Croping area
Here is what I did to build a similar crop area component. I don't
know if it's the cleanest, but it works.
I extended a UIComponent, added frameWidth frameHeight properties
and overrode the UpdateDisplayList with the following:
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
//must set blend mode to layer for BlendMode.ERASE to
work
this.blendMode = BlendMode.LAYER;
// Draw a rectangular mask to darken the cropped out parts of
the image
var myMask:Sprite = new Sprite();
myMask.graphics.beginFill(0x00);
myMask.graphics.drawRect(0,0,unscaledWidth,unscaledHeight);
myMask.graphics.endFill();
myMask.alpha = .75;
this.addChild(myMask);
//draw a box to represent the cropped area
var myCrop:Sprite = new Sprite();
myCrop.graphics.beginFill(0xFF);
myCrop.graphics.drawRect(0,0,frameWidth,frameHeight);
myCrop.graphics.endFill();
this.addChild(myCrop);
myCrop.blendMode = BlendMode.ERASE;
//center the cropped area box
myCrop.x = (unscaledWidth - frameWidth)/2;
myCrop.y = (unscaledHeight - frameHeight)/2;
}

Reverse Order is the opposite ordering of control points, or
knots, on a curve or sequence of lines. Technically reverse
drawing order is counter-clockwise. All Graphics class functions
in AS3 are clockwise.
The most obvious usage of drawing in different directions,

SellModelLocator in var productList : ArrayCollection;
The entire SellModelLocator is declared Bindable. In one of my mxml

I need this binding to execute refreshFilters whenever I add/remove a

[flexcoders] Re: Deep binding with Cairngorm question
Never used the Binding tag so I can't say for certain why adding an
item isn't firing your binding. I would think it should but I don't
know what kind of listener is being set up by Binding. As far as
updating an attribute on a Product, you'll want to call
prodList.itemUpdated(myProduct) afterwards but again I can't guarantee
it will work with Binding.
If you set up a listener in AS for CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE
then that approach should definitely work and adding an item to the
collection will fire the binding as well.

[flexcoders] Re: Deep binding with Cairngorm question
Thank you very much and this did help. Thought I'd reply what I found
to work in case you were interested.
First, I guess because my Product class is declared as Bindable, I
didn't have to call prodList.itemUpdated(myProduct) which was nice
since other objects that update myProduct shouldn't have to know where
it is stored.
Second, swapping my mx:Binding with adding a listener on
CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE definitely did the trick, but with
one bad consequence. If somewhere along the way code was written
prodList = new ArrayCollection, it broke. My solution to that was to
add back the mx:Binding, but when that fires, it simply runs a
function that reestablishes the event listener on
CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE. Now it seems to work no matter how
I set the list.
Hope that made sense and thanks again.

[flexcoders] iterating across an object
In the absence of a formal Map I am using an object as a key/value pair map as follows: var map:Object = new Object(); map[A] = some_object_A; map[B] = some_object_B; map[C] = some_object_C; and then looking up by the key var object_A:Object = map[A]; etc. This works really well for random lookup by the key, but what I also need is a way to iterate through the objects I have put on the map object.

[flexcoders] Re: Deep binding with Cairngorm question
Glad you got it working. Yea, its unfortunate (but unavoidable) that
reinitializing a var kills the listeners. (Actually, I think
reassigning like that could cause a memory leak, can someone confirm?)
If its feasible you may want to replace those lines with
prodList.removeAll() and then you should be able to get rid of Binding.

Thank you very much and this did help. Thought I'd reply what I found
to work in case you were interested.
First, I guess because my Product class is declared as Bindable, I
didn't have to call prodList.itemUpdated(myProduct) which was nice
since other objects that update myProduct shouldn't have to know where
it is stored.
Second, swapping my mx:Binding with adding a listener on
CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE definitely did the trick, but with
one bad consequence. If somewhere along the way code was written
prodList = new ArrayCollection, it broke. My solution to that was to
add back the mx:Binding, but when that fires, it simply runs a
function that reestablishes the event listener on
CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE. Now it seems to work no matter how
I set the list.
Hope that made sense and thanks again.

Never used the Binding tag so I can't say for certain why adding an

updating an attribute on a Product, you'll want to call
prodList.itemUpdated(myProduct) afterwards but again I can't guarantee
it will work with Binding.
If you set up a listener in AS for CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE
then that approach should definitely work and adding an item to the
collection will fire the binding as well.

client is actively managing and pushing only the right data to the right
clients, you need to set up the routing rules yourself with the publish
and subscribe rules.
One other difference is that the refresh fill process - i.e. where the
server refreshes fill methods after an insert or update or explicit
refreshFill call is made on the server does not work with manual sync.
Since the server has no knowledge of what fills each client is actively
managing and does not cache its current set of ids, it can't refresh it.
You can still update queries by using the
DataServiceTransaction.addItemToFill and removeItemFromFill methods. Of
course the other server side methods updateItem, createItem, and
deleteItem also still work though make sure that any use of these apis
also supply the producerSubtopics or producerDefaultHeaders needed to
route these changes to the right clients.
Here's a code snippet of some client code which sets up manual
subscriptions:
personService.autoSyncEnabled =
groupService.autoSyncEnabled = false; // turn off auto sync
personService.manualSync.producerDefaultHeaders =
{a:4}; // if you use selector expressions this
is how you specify key-value pairs for the producer
personService.manualSync.producerSubtopics.addItem(grouptopic);
// more commonly this publishes to a specific subtopic
personService.manualSync.consumerAddSubscription(grouptopic, a IN
('3', '4', '5')); // subscribes both to a subtopic with a selector
expression
personService.manualSync.consumerSubscribe();
// this actually initiates the subscribe
groupService.manualSync.producerDefaultHeaders =
{a:4};
groupService.manualSync.producerSubtopics.addItem(grouptopic);
groupService.manualSync.consumerAddSubscription(grouptopic, a IN
('3', '4', '5'));
groupService.manualSync.consumerSubscribe();

Subject: [flexcoders] FDS ManualSync and AS [Managed] Metadata
Hi All,
I am dealing with very large data sets and is thinking of using
FDS manualSync (instead of auto-sync-enabledtrue/auto-sync-
enabled) for pushing server data updates to the clients. To
use manualSync, the client code needs to subscribe to the DataServer
for changes. From reading the FDS user guide, it was not clear to me if
FDS would be able to handle data updates for me (after the client
subscribes to the changes).
Does having the [Managed] metadata tag in the AS class still work when
I am using manualSync? Or does the client now needs to provide
callback to handle updates from the manualSync channel?
Anyone has example on how to do this?
Thanks in advance!

[flexcoders] accordion with more than one item open at the same time
Hi, How do I make an accordion that can display more than one item at the same time. Something similar to the accordion displayed at this page http://www.nytimes.com/packages/khtml/2006/04/02/business/20060402_SECTOR_GRAPHIC.html Thanks, Sashikala

[flexcoders] Re: iterating across an object
thanks, sorry to be dim, but what exactly do I put as the iterator in these loops? for each (what in map) Can I use... var o:Object; for each (o in map)? Incidentally I don't think a Dictionary works in my particular instance because it uses the strict equality === operator which means that I can only retrieve items if I have the exact same object that I used as the key. In my case I am using a String UID value as the key so I can look up objects from the map from lots of different places. I can guarantee that I will *not* have the same instance of the key object when I look up the right hand side of the map, instead I have a String which contains the same characters as the original key. So == will work, but === will not, which unfortunately makes the Dictionary object useless for my purposes.

[flexcoders] Swapping color from Bitmap
Hi there, I'm told it is possible to swap a color value from a Bitmap in Flex. Say for example I want to change all the pixels that have the red 0xFF value to any other color value (ex 0xF94A3C), what would it take? Are you aware of any examples/tutorials I can be pointed to? Thanks, Claudia
[flexcoders] transient properties of an object using RemoteClass
I have a situation where I have a deliberate mismatch between my AS3
and Java objects.
I have a Java object
package com.java
class X
{
private String name;
public String getName(){return name;}
public void setName(String name){this.name=name;}
}
and an ActionScript object
package com.as3
{
[Managed]
[RemoteClass(alias=com.java.X)]
public class X
{
private var name:String;
private var age:Number;
}
}
this all works great and my X.name gets transported back and forth
reliably, however when data is transmitted from client to server I get
a warning message from the framework on the server which says...
Ignoring set property age for type com.as3.X as a setter could not be
found.
This means that the age property was transmitted unnecessarily. Not a
problem for a primitive like a Number, but a real problem if age
contained an array of objects.
What I think I need is something like the transient keyword in Java
object persistence which causes a property not to be considered for
persistence, or in this case transmission.
Does any such thing exist, or is there another way of doing this?
Thanks
[flexcoders] Re: iterating across an object
Hi Simon, Dictionary will work for you. Strings are passed by value, so it doesn't matter if you have the same key var or not. Run this code to see an example. var d:Dictionary = new Dictionary(); var s1:String = foo; var s2:String = foo; d[s1] = bar; trace(d[s2]); As for what to use as the iterator, that depends on what your collection is holding. If you don't know, or it holds more than one type of object, Object or * would be the type of your iterator. If you know you have a collection of Dog instances, use a Dog iterator.

[flexcoders] Re: iterating across an object
Why a Dictionary? A Dictionary was designed for Object keys not realy String keys. A plain old fashioned Object will surely do just fine for him, ie exactly as he had it in the first place the only thing he was missing was how to loop over the keys, which would just be: for(key:String in map)map[key] As for his question about HashMaps/HashTables, Object is really the nearest equivialent.
