Re: {Disarmed} Re: [flexcoders] Components and displaying into a new target

[jitendra jain]

I thought you want to add dynamically to the Accordion control.
and it can be done like this application.accordionName.
Anyways Great...
 Thanks,

Oh cool. Thanks!
 
However, that didn’t work…  I realized that the addChild I wanted to reference 
was not the correct component to work with.  The addState within that component 
opens up the dialog box.  Here’s the code:
 

http://www.adobe. com/2006/ mxml" width="400" height="300" 
label="AddContact"  >

 
 
    
      
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
 
  


 
How do I open this into the parent of the parent canvas?  I can’t see any place 
where the objects could use target=””.
 
Thanks!

RE: {Disarmed} [flexcoders] Couple questions

I can't comment on the 2nd question.  However, you'd probably want to do
something in Flash for a powerpoint.  Flex is more of a programmers
language, flash is more of a designer interface.

Hello all,
I had a few questions, where I could use some suggestions or
opinions and ideas. One is regarding Powerpoint-like presentations
online. If you were going to do something like this, would you use
Flash or Flex - maybe these are not even the best choices? Are there
extensions for Flash or Flex to convert a powerpoint file to something
that would play in the Flash Player? Actually, I'm not sure if there
even are any extensions for Flex like there are for other Adobe
products, but I bet there are.
Next, I noticed that there is a nice AIR application for reading
Flexcoder messages. I'm only aware of one, the only additional thing
I'd want is the ability to post to the group from the AIR application.
Can anyone suggest some good sources for a variety of AIR applications?
Lastly, are there any script collections of free or commercial
Flex MXML/Actionscript applications that one could check out, such as
what there are at http://hotscripts.com   and
other similar places.

Re: [flexcoders] Java-like equals() method?

[jitendra jain]

In this case you need to use Bindable

BindingUtils.bindProperty(myUser,"assignedToUser",combBox,"selectedItem"); if 
you want to reflect the changes from myUser.assignedToUser to 
CombBox.selectedItem..

Hi, 

I've been searching for a good solution to implementing object equality. I'm 
familiar with 
ObjectUtil, etc., but it still makes things harder than they should be. 

It may be best to illustrate this with an example. Suppose I have a ComboBox 
with an 
ArrayCollection as a data provider. The ArrayCollection is populated with value 
objects 
from the server, e.g., User objects. Suppose that I have a Task class, and a 
Task may 
have an assignedToUser property, which is a User instance. When the someone 
selects a 
Task (say, in a master-detail view), I would like the ComboBox to set its 
selectedItem to 
the user for the given Task, i.e., combBox.selectedIte m = myUser.assignedToUs 
er.

The problem is that no Task in the ComboBox's data provider and the User's 
assignedToUser property are ever equal using the == or === operators. 

So I would like to implement a custom equality for User, and have the ComboBox 
use that 
to set its selectedItem to the specified user. In Java, this is easily done by 
overriding the 
equals() and hashCode() methods of User. 

Any suggestions on how to achieve something similar in Flex would be much 
appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: [flexcoders] Re: How to make an RPC call secure

If your question is "when flex calls a java class and within the java class how 
do I access the associated session", then the code is below and it is in the 
documentation. The FlexSession class is located in the flex-messaging.jar.
 
FlexSession session = FlexContext.getFlexSession();
 
But whats the real question behind your question? what do you want to load?

If this means that you are trying to access runString from a subclass of

RE: [flexcoders] How can the tooltip access the component that is responsible for making it appea

[Gordon Smith]

A ToolTip doesn't have a reference to the component that is responsible for 
making it appear, because not all ToolTips get produced by hovering over a 
component. For example, you can call ToolTipManager.createToolTip() to create 
ToolTips that are not associated wtih components.

However, I think the ToolTipManager.currentTarget property is what you're 
looking for.

[flexcoders] Flex Project to be converted to run on WebOrb

[Eric Dunn]

Hello all, 

Does anyone know how to convert a Flex Project to run on a server that was not 
originally configured to do so? 

I have a project that that is currently configured to standalone. I have been 
playing with WebOrb and would like to convert this existing project to run in 
WebOrb. The Flex Server section in the project Properties is disabled... 

Any ideas other than creating a new project with WebOrb and then pasting the 
existing code into the new project?

[flexcoders] Upgrading from Flex 2 with LCDS 2.5 to Flex 3 with LCDS 2.6

[Preston McGowan]

I have a few projects that I need to upgrade from Flex 2 with LCDS 2.5 to
Flex 3 with LCDS 2.6.
I tried at first to "go for broke" and just import the old project files
into Flex 3. It complained saying "could not find source for resource bundle
data."

I tried to rebuild the project files and linked it to LCDS 2.5. After some
googling and reading I found that I needed LCDS 2.6 (thanks flexcoders
group!)

I upgraded the LCDS to 2.6 from Adobe's site and still have the "could not
find source for resource bundle data." error.

I don't have any idea what I could be doing so horribly wrong at this point
but am guessing I "forgot to check a box during project creation."

Any ideas?

One example of what you get by implementing an interface is, for 
example, IDropInListItemRenderer.  If you implement this interface, 
then Flex will give your itemRenderer more information than you'd get 
with the data property.  I.e. you also get listData.

If the parent component doesn't see that you have implemented this 
interface, I don't think it will try to give you that information.

RE: [flexcoders] Create Help System in Flex - how to display html in a canvas or component?

[Battershall, Jeff]

If your HTML rendering needs are rudimentary, you can use HTTPService to
retrieve HTML files and use them for the htmlText property of the Text
control.  It supports (but not that well) such things as unordered
lists, paragraphs and such. I've used this in combination with a vew
stack and button bar to display multiple pages of help text. It's crude,
but it works.  Conceivably you could incorporate a Tree component and
use that as a menuing system to retreive content via HTTP and display it
in your content area.

Displaying full html in Flex (Flash Player) is not yet possible.

 

What are your requirements?  The simplest solution is to use a
separate browser to display the html help pages.  The Flex side needs to
know "where" in the app the user is, and be able to determine the url to
display.  Using ExternalInterface you can exercise quite a bit of
control over that window's behavior.

 

Doing it all in Flex will be more difficult, primarily on the
editing side.  Dynamic display based on xml content is easy, but
building a dynamic layout that looks like a help system might be a bit
tricky.  Directly editing xml files is not advised for non-developers,
so you would need some king of wysiwyg editor...

 

I would really like to see a Flex integration of something like
RoboHelp.  Who owns RoboHelp anyway?

I've built a flex gui that I want to display html files (or
least that
was my original thought). I tried doing some of the IFrame
techniques but it doesn't seem to work on a mac. 

Anyway, the end-goal is for creating a help system. When certain
links are clicked, I just want to display text in panel or
component.
The html files (or text files) would be separate so they can be
easily edited and/or changed without a recompile of the swf. 

Should I try doing the external files in html, txt, or xml
files? If
XML, would I just fill up the node with pages of the text that
represent the text?

Sure I could do this with an html editor without flex, but I
want this
in a flex app!

access the HTTP Sessioin and store an object, access the object from 
another jsp or servlet. I want to do the same in Flex. Can this be 
done?

Thanks for the help

 

Re: [flexcoders] Flex / Data / Create Application from Database - Can this also work as a module?

[Flex Gangsta]

You could probably just wrap all the children of the mxml file(not  
application) in a mxml component. If I understood you correctly, this  
is the structure you wanted to achieve.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: ComboBox edit field selection when populated

[Tracy Spratt]

Maybe someone who has actually done this will be more help, but I
suspect that your could use the "selection" manager and or property to
manipulate the text selection and cursor position.

 

Finding the best event to handle this might be tricky.

 

I would expect there to be a way to programaticall open the drop list
too, but I have not dug into the docs to find out how.

 

This sounds like the AutoComplete component.  Perhaps there will be code
in there that might be of use.

RE: [flexcoders] Create Help System in Flex - how to display html in a canvas or component?

[Tracy Spratt]

Displaying full html in Flex (Flash Player) is not yet possible.

 

What are your requirements?  The simplest solution is to use a separate
browser to display the html help pages.  The Flex side needs to know
"where" in the app the user is, and be able to determine the url to
display.  Using ExternalInterface you can exercise quite a bit of
control over that window's behavior.

 

Doing it all in Flex will be more difficult, primarily on the editing
side.  Dynamic display based on xml content is easy, but building a
dynamic layout that looks like a help system might be a bit tricky.
Directly editing xml files is not advised for non-developers, so you
would need some king of wysiwyg editor...

 

I would really like to see a Flex integration of something like
RoboHelp.  Who owns RoboHelp anyway?

Subject: [flexcoders] Create Help System in Flex - how to display html

I've built a flex gui that I want to display html files (or least that
was my original thought). I tried doing some of the IFrame
techniques but it doesn't seem to work on a mac. 

Anyway, the end-goal is for creating a help system. When certain
links are clicked, I just want to display text in panel or component.
The html files (or text files) would be separate so they can be
easily edited and/or changed without a recompile of the swf. 

Should I try doing the external files in html, txt, or xml files? If
XML, would I just fill up the node with pages of the text that
represent the text?

Sure I could do this with an html editor without flex, but I want this
in a flex app!

Um, required for what? The form/formitem/formheading elements are AFAIK
just there to give you some easy graphical structure for a form type
screen. That's it. 

 

2) Assuming that is true, then all the fields, labels, form
elements
and the submit button must be inside the same Form tag, correct?


I think FormItem and FormHeading have to be in a Form but that's it.
 

3) If the form is long, how would I use either Accordion
features, or
view states or something else to allow easier presentation of
different segments of the form? In other words, I don't want
this
going on for 20+ items, including TextAreas, as that could be
long.


Break the questions into logical groups, then put then in different
sections of the accordion.
 

Lastly, would ColdFusion work better with this than PHP?


While I'm a ColdFusion programmer professionally, I'm certain that you
can do what you want with PHP. I'm unclear of the methods available to
PHP to pipe data back and forth (other than HTTPService, which would
treat your PHP page as a webservice I think). There are some neat things
that you can do with CF and the Flash Remoting capabilities that Adobe
has built for it but I don't see that those would be requirements for
what you've set out here.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: modal PopUp with one component, that should accept user interaction

[Tracy Spratt]

I think you will need to make your popup non-modal, then create "mouse
shields" over the components that you want to protect.

 

This is how modal popups work, by placing a transparent layer above the
application.  I have not done this but others have.  Look into the code
for modal popups.

Hi,

 

do you mean to create the PopUp as non modal and after that do
mx.core.Application.application.enabled = false?

You are right, it doesn't affect the popup, but disables all other
components. 

 

Think I confused you, here is an example: Lets say I have two Buttons
(Btn A and B) on stage. Each Button creates a PopUp. When I click on
Button A, the Pop Up appears, Button B will be disabled but Button A
stays enabled and accepts user interaction.

 

I want to use the PopUpManager for that and set the third parameter of
"PopUpManager.createPopUp" to true (modal). Anybody has done something
like that?

Gregor,
Thanks for your post. I agree with you that Alex's blog contains the

parent app, and the problem of Type Coercion goes away (though I'd

aspect of Alex's recommendation mystifies me.

He recommends putting the TitleWindow inside the Module, like this:

but if I do this, and use PopUpManager.addPopUp() to raise this

I think to have a draggable popup window, it needs to inherit from

It appears from the original post that the error is



Unexpected g encountered



In your code you have



echo "gyanprakash"



if $_GET['getOrder' ] is set.



So, is $_GET['getOrder' ] set? if so, you will get the error as the

response will be gyanprakash (NOT JSON encoded).

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Question about HTTPService and callbacks

[Tracy Spratt]

I see a few ways to do this.  The key to all of them is using
AsyncToken.  

 

You could add a callback parameter to your components send() function.
If you use a function, then you can place a callback function directly
in the AsyncToken(Responder?) and have the result handler execute the
function

 

You could use a string that is the name of the callback function, put
that in the AsyncToken, and in the handler, like you have done, use
bracket notation to get a reference to and execute the function.

 

You could pass in a string use a string that identifies the call, then
have your component dispatch an event on result.  Either use a custom
event that contains the result data and call identifier, or expose the
"lastResult" and "callId" in public properties.  Have the handler for
the components result event use that data to execute whatever you need.

 

You can mix and match these approaches as well.

 

Tracy

[flexcoders] Flex / Data / Create Application from Database - Can this also work as a module?

[sailorsea21]

Hi, I had a question, 
When I create an application from a Database (Flex / Data / Create 
Application from Database).
Can I modify the code to convert it into a module?

I have a main application that I would like to load the Database as a 
module. I tried replacing the  Tags to  but 
didn't work... 

Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] using callLater with setter?

Yeah, I understand.
The problem as you know is they use apply() so you need the real name of the
setter when flex compiles it. I thought they uses 'setSelectedChild', I
tried that and it was not defined.

Maybe keep generated as could show something.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 4 and Flex 3 mixable?

[Matt Chotin]

We are trying to make it so that it won't take much work for something written 
against Flex 3 to work with Flex 4.  But it's likely the component will need to 
be recompiled.  Unfortunately the way AS is compiled and interpreted makes it 
hard to have individual components built with different versions.  The Marshall 
Plan is meant to allow larger pieces of functionality to intermix, but not as 
low as the component level.

WORD!

Especially in UIComponent designs, I would discourage the use of extends
with interfaces.

It's a lot easier if your class just implements what it needs and leave
the inheritance to the class framework that is implementing the interfaces.

This is not to say don't, but careful design of User Interface interface
frameworks is needed. Adobe did a pretty good job at this.

If you were around in the Flex 2 betas especially the alpha you saw how
the scrubbed the interfaces and completely refactored out
some inheritance they used in the interface framework.

 The reason is you can stack interfaces on top of each other allowing
 more decoupling to the implementing concrete classes.

 This interface is obvious. Any class that implements it needs eval() and
 only eval. It's like a singleton declaration of implementation.

 If you jammed this evel() method into IUIComponent, maybe all components
 don't need eval. Make sense?

 Also another good example of this type of interface in the flex
 framework is IDataRenderer, it's only declared property is 'data'.

Re: [flexcoders] Problem using SDK Version 3.1...

[Maciek Sakrejda]

My guess is that you have malformed (or at least questionably-formed)
MXML somewhere (and Flex 3.0 was more lenient about it). Are you sure
you don't have garbage at the beginning of some MXML file or something
like that? Can you validate it through an external XML editor (sorry
don't know any on Mac)?

Re: [flexcoders] Interfaces WHY?

Except that "pseudo" sounds disparaging, and I actually like an object model
which has multiple inheritance of interfaces and single inheritance of
implementations (same as Java, and maybe C# too?). Multiple inheritance of
implementation results in ambiguity. Composition/delegation is a better
approach in my view. Lots of literature about this that the original poster
can read.

Having said that, I did have one occasion in my career when I followed an

 so short?

 INTERFACE:

 package my.package.area
 {
 /**
 * Interface for methods that evaluate an object and return a result.
 */
 public interface IEval
 {
 /**
 * Evaluates the input object
 * @o the object to evaluate
 * @return the computed result value
 */
 function eval(o:Object=null):*;

 } // end of interface IEval
 }

 USAGE OF INTERFACE:

 if (value is IEval) { value = IEval(value).eval(o) };

 Cairngorm has a short interface like this as well, though I cannot
 remember what it is. In Cairngorm they say its for naming or to make
 the code easier to understand? I am just not sure why you would do
 this? Help me see the light!

[flexcoders] Flex 4 and Flex 3 mixable?

[Weyert de Boer]

Hello!

I am currently working on a project where one third-party component is 
written for Flex 3. Only I am curious if it's possible to combine Flex 3 
parts with Flex 4.
Anyone know if this possible or having experience with this?

Yours,
Weyert de Boer

Now that I think about it, a mask might not be what I need.

Should I just do a color replace? replace all pixels of the color x to
the color y?

How would I do that? Is that efficient?

[flexcoders] Masking Images?

[tchredeemed]

If I have a bunch of images that need to be color-coded for a given
color, how would I do this?

Let's say I have a grid with 8 images, and all 8 of them have portions
that need to have a 'branded color,' but the branded color is
different depending on the user, and the images are different
depending on the current setup.

In other words, 100% dynamic masking?

Re: [flexcoders] Calculate a BPM Song by calculating interval between two clicks (TAP Button)

[Howard Fore]

Yeah, if you don't need it to be perfect (you already had humen error to
factor in), maybe you could just run long enough tests to figure out what
the average off amount is and factor it in. Or maybe give the user the
ability to bump it up or down in one or two BPM increments so they can match
it perfectly.

Re: [flexcoders] Interfaces WHY?

And sometimes you even have interfaces with no methods. In this case it's a
"marker" (often a parent of other interfaces) and when used in method
signatures you get type checking.

AW: [flexcoders] Re: modal PopUp with one component, that should accept user interaction

[Christoph Leva]

Hi,
 
do you mean to create the PopUp as non modal and after that do
mx.core.Application.application.enabled = false?
You are right, it doesn't affect the popup, but disables all other
components. 
 
Think I confused you, here is an example: Lets say I have two Buttons (Btn A
and B) on stage. Each Button creates a PopUp. When I click on Button A, the
Pop Up appears, Button B will be disabled but Button A stays enabled and
accepts user interaction.
 
I want to use the PopUpManager for that and set the third parameter of
"PopUpManager.createPopUp" to true (modal). Anybody has done something like
that?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Flex, Coldfusion, Air

[Battershall, Jeff]

Why would it 'fail'? - I'm not getting that. Like I said, it is
basically a one-time hit, because the swf is going to be cached on the
user's computer. It is certainly no more difficult than building and
distributing an AIR app.  Your use case for AIR should be based, IMO, on
AIR's particular capabilities. Don't forget that your AIR app will
probably require updating, which will result in more downloads for your
users.  Don't get me wrong, AIR is great and I'm using it for certain
projects but don't get the idea that using it is going to completely
solve your bandwidth problem. 

You can also substantially reduce the download time for a new version of
your Flex app by using Runtime Shared Libraries.

Re: [flexcoders] Calculate a BPM Song by calculating interval between two clicks (TAP Button)

I'd suggest trying a function that reads the bom off a keypress, space bar
maybe, and see if the variation is as great. If so I'd say that it's a
general flash player thing.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 3 Layout of long form

[valdhor]

In answer to your questions:

1.  No. These are only used to make alignment easier. By adding
TextInput, TextArea etc to a formItem, Flex makes everything line up
nicely for you. If you just want to put a TextInput somewhere on a
page, you can.

2.  Nope - see 1 above.

3.  Just put a Form and FormItem tags in each accordion item (Or you
could use a TabNavigator and move between tabs as each section is
finished). When the user hits the submit button, go and grab all the
data they entered. It doesn't matter if the data is in one form or a
100 forms - You just pick up the data from the id of each item.

4.  Use a value object (Sometimes called a data transfer object). Put
all the data values you grabbed into fields in the object and send it
to PHP. Use either AMFPHP (Or WebORB which I recommend).

Finally, use whatever language you know. PHP works just as well as any
other.

[flexcoders] Re: Best way to deliver data via Rails

[valdhor]

There is nothing inherently wrong with HTTPService.

I find using AMF (RemoteObject) that my data is more structured. It is
much quicker to debug problems of data going over the pipe with AMF.
Also, I find the data size to be about one tenth of the size of XML
(eg. One of my data calls was returning 82K of XML data; Changing to
AMF yielded 8.47K of data. All this according to Charles).

Re: [flexcoders] Interfaces WHY?

[Michael Schmalle]

Hi,
It's ICommand.

The reason is you can stack interfaces on top of each other allowing more
decoupling to the implementing concrete classes.

This interface is obvious. Any class that implements it needs eval() and
only eval. It's like a singleton declaration of implementation.

If you jammed this evel() method into IUIComponent, maybe all components
don't need eval. Make sense?

Also another good example of this type of interface in the flex framework is
IDataRenderer, it's only declared property is 'data'.

Re: [flexcoders] Interfaces WHY?

[Flex Gangsta]

Afaik interfaces give certain method signatures that must appear  
identical in the class that implements it. This is good for having  
hood organized code and multiple classes with sinmilar functionality.  
You can also do other things like like type an object to an interface.

I may be misunderstanding your question but the third parameter of

Re: [flexcoders] Screen freezes when running code in result callback function of HTTPService

[Michael Schmalle]

Hi,
This is a single thread problem. The problem is you are parsing data that is
taking that single thread the Flash Player uses to do all of it's work.

The solution is to batch your xml parsing into a timer queue of sorts,
dispatch an event to the progress bar updating the batch total to completed.
Then your screen will not lock up either.

I have done this with quite a bit of things, batching definitely works. You
as the developer need to figure out how to abstract the parsing into chunks.

Adobe loves releasing things at the end of summer into fall. I would guess
that.

Re: [flexcoders] Changing Tree Node Colour on MouseOver

[Howard Fore]

Off the top of my head (i.e. without having actually done it) I'd use the
events (maybe focusIn, focusout) to fire a function that changed the color
or style on the text in the event's currentTarget.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: set height of a Container back to default? (resize to content)

[Michael Schmalle]

Hi,
This is not right... throwing an error.

Can you post the error?

The hack your co-worker gave you is definitely unnecessary.

Can you post some code that will reproduce what you are trying to achieve?

Setting the container's height = NaN will force the container to ditch the
last height metric. When this happens the container invalidates it's size,
thus calling measure(), remeasuring child preferred widths and heights.

On the next validateDisplayList() call the layout manager will then set your
container to it's measuredHeight since there is no explicit height set.

I need to know the error you are getting.

Mike

[flexcoders] Re: localize drag

[flexaustin]

Yeah I am currently using stopProp, but then that effects everything
else like text fields, buttons, etc... which then cuts down the
draggable area of the overall component to just a few places where
there isn't a child component. 

I guess I will have to create some handle on the outside of the main
component to use for dragging until I get the time to create some
custom events.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Flex, Coldfusion, Air

[Battershall, Jeff]

Of course, but once a flex app is downloaded to the client, it will not
need to be downloaded again until some event (like clearing a browser
cache, etc.) forces it to be downloaded again.  Flex apps don't need
"good bandwidth to open", in fact, after initial download, they should
perform the same or better than a "normal" html app.

so if the application is ported(if i may say) to AIR it reduces the time
it takes for the application to open if it where just a flex app(as in
flex apps need good bandwidth to open so if its ported to AIR that issue
is solved right?)

[flexcoders] dynamic bindable objects and extending Proxy

[Justin J. Moses]

Who has experience extending Proxy?

I have successfully created dynamic bindable objects by both extending
Proxy and implementing EventDispatcher - this solution is available
around town, and I'm sure you've seen it. 

However, if I use this dynamic object as a row in a dataProvider in a
Datagrid say, then the grid will call the object's toString() property.

My question is, how do I successfully implement Proxy's
"callProperty()" method? 

My solution below was simply to return an toString() iteration of all
the properties, but I don't think this is the best way to do it. 


override flash_proxy function callProperty(name:*, ... rest):* 
{
if (name.localName == "toString")
{
var str:String = "";

for each (var field:String in this)
{
if (field != null)
  str += field.toString();
}

return str;
}   
}

Anyone know the best practice in this case?

thanks,
justin
