RE: [flexcoders] Setter question

[Alex Harui]

You might find this article helpful:

http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/2008/01/selecteditem_and_combobox.html

 

That way you can find the item you want to be selected after the DP is
set.  In general the DP must be set first.

Yes, that's what I fugured.

Here is my code. 

I have a combobox as a form item.:

 

 

 

 

dataModel tag: 

 

 

Data Model:

public

class accidentsGeneralModel 

{

private var _otherrailroa! dinvolved:int = 0; 

[

Bindable] 

public var modelValid:Boolean = false; 

  

[

Bindable] 

public function get otherrailroadinvolved():int 

{

return! _otherrailroadinvolved; 

}

public function set
otherrailroadinvolved(otherrailroadinvolved:int):void 

{

_otherrailroadinvolved = otherrailroadinvolved;

}

Combo's data:

combo.dataProvider = someXML;

 

Form's data:

//reference to main application

mainApp = mx.core.Application.application;

// reference to A! ccidents module 

accidentsModul! e = main App.moduleLoader.child;

accidentsModule.modelGeneral.otherrailroadinvolved =
resultXML.general.otherrailroadinvolved;

 

Here is what happens:

If I am setting up form's data after combo's dropdown has been set then
the combo will show the correct item: item that is driven by the form's
data. But if I do it other way around then the combo does not show the
correct one but always has its selectedIndex = 0.

I am trying to override dataProvider property but dont know what I can
match combo's dropdown data to to set its selectedIndex manually.

 

Thanks

Assigning the combo's dataprovider just tells its dropdown List what to
display.

I have a combobox in a form. I have also defined a set function for

combo.dataProvider = someXML. The data is shown with no problem, but 
set function is not called. Am I doing something wrong?

That works in the default "NO_SCALE" scaleMode. 
But I need my app to be "SHOW_ALL". 
So everything gets scaled to the maximum width/height of the window. 

Here is another example: http://kolt-siewerts.com/flexTest/helloWorld/
 
(right-click for source view)

The text scales just like I want it to: according to the window-scale.
But if you scale the 
browser window to an extreme 5:1 ratio, you see a black bar at the
sides. 
And no, setting maxWidth or minWidth does not work ;)

RE: [flexcoders] Lazy Loading on Tree Component with LCDS

[Jeff Vroom]

I have an approach that might help with the 2.x Tree.  It is a subclass
of ArrayCollection you can use to suppress ItemPendingErrors which you
can get here:

 

   http://www.jvroom.com/NotPendingCollection.as

 

You provide it a source collection and this collection will either be
empty or fully populated... it won't throw ItemPendingErrors.   You can
use it with lazy loaded associations or paged collections but if you use
it with paging, the first time someone access an item, it will page in
the entire collection (unless you set startIndex/maxIndex as described
later).   It is still a bit experimental but let me know if you have
problems with it as the code is not too complicated.   

 

To use it you'd put this between your tree and your filled/associated
collection:

 









 

 ...

 

  

 



It also has a startIndex and maxIndex parameters so your collection can
expose a sub-region of the paged collection.  This allows you to use
this more efficiently if the underlying collection is paged.   I've done
some testing on this using a chart (which also does not handle item
pending errors) but haven't tested it with tree.  In my sample, I hooked
up the start and max index to the visible regions of a data grid and
then have the chart display the visible data as you scroll in the grid.

[flexcoders] Re: Send event to all objects?

Point taken about the button versus the stage.  But I wonder if your solution 
is the most 
elegant.  From what I've read, the event hierarchy (capture, target, bubbling) 
should be 
able to handle this for me.

Stepping through the array makes sense if I have to, but I don't think I have 
to.

RE: [flexcoders] Lazy Loading on Tree Component with LCDS

[Alex Harui]

The 2.x Tree does not handle IPEs.  The 3.0 Tree won't either, but by
using the ADG's hierarchicalCollections and some glue, it should work.
I'll be blogging on how to do that right after 3.0 goes out the door or
sooner if I get a chance.

 

You might be able to workaround some of the issues in 2.x.  There are
two kinds of IPE issues with the 2.x tree.  It expects at least one page
of the top level of the hierarchy to be paged in and ready to go.  That
should get you past some of the errors.  Next, it does not expect the
lower levels of the hierarchy to be paged.  You can workaround that by
returning a zero-length children collection via a custom
ITreeDataDescriptor until the actual data arrives.  One clever person
stuck in one entry that said "fetching children..." until the children
arrived.

 

You will get best results in 2.x if the entire top-level is paged in,
and you use the zero-length or single entry trick until the children are
paged in.

I'm not sure about the JSP requirement, but I would presume you would

[flexcoders] Newbie : Flex Hosting Question

[hardikpandya2000]

Hello FlexCoders,

I am newbie to Flex and have a very basic question

I need to make Flex Application with Mysql + JSP, what do I need to 
host this kind of application live.

What are the options / alternatives ?

I would really appreciate any help and suggestions.

Thank you all in advance,

Hardik

RE: [flexcoders] How can I tell length or size of object ( not array ) but object ..

[Gordon Smith]

As far as I know, you have to loop.
 
By the way, using Object-literal syntax
 
var o:Object = { a: "aa", b: "bb" };
 
produces more efficient code than what you wrote. And instead of doing
 
var o:Object = new Object();
 
you should just write
 
var o:Object = {};

Is there a way to know a size of an object ( hash table ) without
doing a for loop ?

as in:

var o:Object = new Object();
o.a = "aa";
o.b = "bb";

o.length or o.size does not work ? So how can I know size without
doing a loop every time ?

RE: [flexcoders] The 'right' way to do custom styles

[Gordon Smith]

If it doesn't work with getStyle() and setStyle(), I wouldn't call it a
style. That will just confuse your users.
 
You can certainly implement simple properties that affect visual stuff
like colors, but then your developers will wonder why they're not styles
and can't be set in CSS. Styles are much more Flexible; for example, a
single type selector can affect all instances of a class.
 
Have you looked at how our components implement styles? There is usually
very little work, and styles will probably produce a smaller SWF than
properties. Each property requires a storage var, a getter, and a
setter. Each style only requires a little metadata.

Subject: [flexcoders] The 'right' way to do custom styles



So, as I see things, there are two ways to do custom styles in a custom 
component.
The first is the quick and easy way: create a public Bindable of type
uint and 
then use data binding inside your custom component. Your component then
has 
properties for the styles.
The second is the more long winded approach of adding meta data, and
writing 
all the code needed to support that. Your component then has actual
styles 
that can be set using setStyle(), but from MXML looks exactly the same
as the 
first way.

Given we don't use setStyle(), and use custom components mostly from
MXML 
(rather than AS), is it very wrong to just do it the first, esp. if
there are 
many styles ?

I've setup a datagrid so that users can toggle the visibility of

[flexcoders] firstVisibleItem with AdvancedDataGrid, potential bug?

[picklzzz]

Hello,

Has anyone attempted to programatically set the firstVisibleItem
property of AdvancedDataGrid and got it to work. I have a plotChart
and an associated ADG populated with a superset of the data used for
the plotChart. I want a click on an item from the plotChart to change
the firstVisibleItem so that the individual's full record is visible
in the first row of the ADG.

At present, I have a function:

private function scatterChartSelect(e:ChartItemEvent):void {
myADG.firstVisibleItem =  
scatterChart.selectedChartItem;
  }

That is triggered using itemClick in the plotChart. When a dot is
clicked, the ADG scrolls to the bottom of the entries, which seems
peculiar.

[flexcoders] How can I tell length or size of object ( not array ) but object ..

o.b = "bb";

o.length or o.size does not work ? So how can I know size without
doing a loop every time ?

it load perfectly the way I need it to but now I have to figure out
how to use the keyboard to navigate (which you so promptly replied to

[flexcoders] Re: Flex Samples

[javaguru_uk]

Hi Stewart,

I have had the same problem. First, I read the getting started user
manual, where I grasped how Flex worked. Since I had already worked
with Openlaszlo before, it was easy to get used to it. The
technologies are quite similar.

Well, I have tried to find examples as well, and found this site
http://www.brightworks.com/technology/adobe_flex/code.html

I studied the source code of those that interested me, and then I was
implementing an application with it. I am in the middle of finishing a
document management system that was implemented in Flex and Java.

I think you should also have a look at Craingorm, which is a nice api
that allows you to organize your code in a proper way.

Well, hope that helps.

All the best,

Fidel.

[flexcoders] Re: Simulating Flex Client requests using Java?

[Robert Csiki]

You are right in your way ... I was trying to analyze how well the
testing of the server code covered (using a Java code coverage tool -
like "Clover" - which works together with JUnit). If I'm using FlexUnit,
I'm testing the client (Actionscript) code, not the server (Java) one.
Of course I can test the service layer hit, but that is still part of
the client code test suite. What I want is to initiate the test from
Java side, to get the Java code coverage reports.

[flexcoders] Flayer Player minimum requirements Flex 3

[Kevin]

I am wondering what the minimum requirements for the Flash Player  
version are.

Our app is compiled using Flex Beta 3 and is  LCDS project run in  
Tomcat.

I have a client having trouble with IE crashing and losing RTMP  
connections.  I am wondering if their flash player version is a  
problem.  They have Flash Player 9, but not the latest.  They are in  
a big corporate environment where downloading is prohibited so before  
I make them go to IT, I want to get some more info.

Thanks,

Kevin

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Simulating Flex Client requests using Java?

[Jeffry Houser]

  I'm still speaking for a stance of borderline ignorance here...

  I don't think I understand why you want to simulate a Flex call from 
Java + JUnit instead of making an real Flex call, triggered by FlexUnit.

  Instead of trying to simulate a Flex call from the server side, 
wouldn't you want to trigger the remote call from the Client?  ( I 
assumed using FlexUnit ).  In theory, you use JUnit to test your Java 
Objects, but can use FlexUnit to test hit the "service" layer.  Am I 
greatly oversimplifying things?  Or just completely wrong?

[flexcoders] Re: AdvancedDataGrid - how to clear contents?

[mitek17]

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the reply!

I've figured out the way how to clear the contents.

I was unable to do it if ADG and group collection and dataprovider were 
in MXML format.
So, I just created independent ArrayCollection, binded it to the 
GroupCollection as source and then after getting query result from 
server manually inserted objects from HTTPService into the 
ArrayCollection. And before fetching the data simply call 
arrayCollection.removeAll();

After debugging the code I would say that the you can't clear the 
contents assigning null to the data provider as code checks everywhere 
if source != null and in this case just doing nothing.

O the contrary, if you generate CollectionChanged event everything is 
fine.

PS I am still wondering how direct binding HttpService & ADG works for 
most of the people - for example when result is just only one object 
XML parser does not generate vector representation of data.
Anyhow, I am avoiding MXML as much as possible.

Cheers,
Dmitri.

I hope you have checked the Adobe Web site for sample applications.
There are a bunch of samples with full source code there. Flex Store

You could also get a book like Training From The Source which comes

[flexcoders] Simulating Flex Client requests using Java?

Hello,

For server-side testing purposes (e.g. testing custom LCDS Assemblers,
remote service destinations etc) using the JUnit testing framework, I
need to somehow simulate Flex Client requests to LCDS, programatically,
through Java code (the test cases).  Is that possible, if so, how
please? Basically I need to have access to LCDS's FlexSession,
FlexClient objects (Java objects) without having to use the Flex Client
/ browser to generate requests to LCDS.

Thanks.

RE: [flexcoders] compc usage

[Gregor Kiddie]

There is a couple of steps required to get this working.

Firstly you need to build up the list of files in the directory (plus
subdirectories), and then feed this into the compc task.

This is from one of our build files, I hope you're using ant!

 





  



  

  





  

  



  

 

 





  

  

  





  

  



 

 

It isn't well documented, but this is incredibly useful!

 

Gk.

 

 

 

Can someone point me to a good example of compc command line usage?

I saw a few but the examples always require a manifest file that list
out the files included in the SWC. Is it possible to do it without a
manifest file, i.e. I just point to the folder where the classes are?

In the middle of development, I expect to be adding classes to the SWC
regularly so I don't want to keep updating a manifest file every time.

[flexcoders] Flex performance

[nitin15j]

Hi,

we have created a dasboard application using flex 2 (eclipse IDE), 
java, sql server(database). The application servers different formats 
of charts built in flash. we are using a remote object which takes the 
data from java and sends back to the flex.

we are deploying the application on production server which has only 
weblogic 10. when we lauch the application using launch.mxml, it opens 
the page after 10 secs or more.

should i need to install flex server on the production server to fast 
the req/responce time?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

[flexcoders] FLEX3 Datagrid enabling data paging

[kamiseq]

I'm looking for a ready to use component that is able to page data and
load very quickly. I 've only found
http://www.badongers.com/blog/?p=73 but it is just filling datagrid
with nulls to show scrollbar and that is strange approach for me. 

I know that lifecycle should give me such feature but it is not free.
I was looking for such a component in interent but I couldn find
nothing better.

So maybe I should write my own component and I would like make it more
intelligent.
1)it uses amf to comunicate with server
2)it knows about numbers of rows(lines) to display but is taking only few
3)scrollbar should be something like in picasa aplication
4)catch sroll event is catched
5)clickable header enabling sorting and filtering

nothing special but as I am totally new to action script and flex in
general, can you tell me how to draw my own scrollbar and controll it
(can i do it without drawing anything by myself, I dont have
macromedia flash studio), which component use as a base for my own
scrollable like datgri

[flexcoders] Re: The 'right' way to do custom styles

[Andrew Strader]

It is not always worth the extra effort to make a style rather than a 
regular property. What you lose, then, is the ability to control the 
property with stylesheets, to let the style's value be inherited from 
parent components, and to let its value be overridden from cascading 
style classes.

If you like re-usability, you would also want to consider whether 
making a property out of something that is very style-like may be 
very counterintuitive to a later developer.

development on a bigger project, I would be greatful.

 

Code and sample files can be sent to either the group, so other can benefit,
or to my email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] 

 

I am looking at updating my website to flex, I have the basic layout design,
but I don't know how to:

 

Update forms.

Validate Users against database.

Submit form data.

 

Among other things, if I could l look at snippits of code that would fuel my
excitement about flex more.

Hi,

The thing I like the most on AMFPHP is the Service Browser. I'm using 
granite data services (POJO) now, and I'd like to use the Browser from 
AMFPHP. Can anyone tell me how to do it?

[flexcoders] Re: Mock objects in AS3

[abdulqabiz3]

I heard of reading, in this thread, about ActionScript compiler in
ActionScript. Metal Hurlant has created a library (eval) which is
still being developed, but it does compile ActionScript code, yeah
library is written using ActionScript 3.0

http://metal.hurlant.com/blog/2008/01/02/flash/eval-and-actionscript/

I thought, it might be useful..

RE: [flexcoders] Setter question

[mark goldin]

Yes, that's what I fugured.
  Here is my code. 
  I have a combobox as a form item.:
  
  
  
  
  dataModel tag:
  
   
  Data Model:
  public class accidentsGeneralModel
  {
  private var _otherrailroadinvolved:int = 0;
  [Bindable]
  public var modelValid:Boolean = false;
  
   
  [Bindable]
  public function get otherrailroadinvolved():int
  {
  return _otherrailroadinvolved;
  }
  public function set otherrailroadinvolved(otherrailroadinvolved:int):void
  {
  _otherrailroadinvolved = otherrailroadinvolved;
  }
  Combo's data:
  combo.dataProvider = someXML;
   
  Form's data:
  //reference to main application
  mainApp = mx.core.Application.application;
  // reference to Accidents module
  accidentsModule = mainApp.moduleLoader.child;
  accidentsModule.modelGeneral.otherrailroadinvolved = 
resultXML.general.otherrailroadinvolved;
   
  Here is what happens:
  If I am setting up form's data after combo's dropdown has been set then the 
combo will show the correct item: item that is driven by the form's data. But 
if I do it other way around then the combo does not show the correct one but 
always has its selectedIndex = 0.
  I am trying to override dataProvider property but dont know what I can match 
combo's dropdown data to to set its selectedIndex manually.
   
  Thanks
Alex Harui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
  Unless comboItemRenderer is in a List or DataGrid or other 
ListBase-derived class, the listData setter function will not be called.
  
  Assigning the combo’s dataprovider just tells its dropdown List what to 
display.

Assigning data:

combo.dataProvider = XMLData;

Should I be getting into listData function after that command?

  I have a combobox in a form. I have also defined a set function for 
that combo. I am assigning data to the control using:
combo.dataProvider = someXML. The data is shown with no problem, but 
set function is not called. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks




  

  



  

 

[flexcoders] The 'right' way to do custom styles

[Tom Chiverton]

So, as I see things, there are two ways to do custom styles in a custom 
component.
The first is the quick and easy way: create a public Bindable of type uint and 
then use data binding inside your custom component. Your component then has 
properties for the styles.
The second is the more long winded approach of adding meta data, and writing 
all the code needed to support that. Your component then has actual styles 
that can be set using setStyle(), but from MXML looks exactly the same as the 
first way.

Given we don't use setStyle(), and use custom components mostly from MXML 
(rather than AS), is it very wrong to just do it the first, esp. if there are 
many styles ?

Frederico, www.riapt.org is an open community. Everyone can post on
the blog. More important than the blog, is the Mailing List. We have a
ML with 123 members. The interest in Portugal is still small, but it's
growing fast. I think you should try joining the ML. :)
We are also promoting some events, and making efforts to bring Adobe
speakers to Portugal, probably on February. Stay tuned.
