[flexcoders] simultaneous download in AIR of more then 2 files fails with IOError,any ideeas?
Hi, I filled this bug http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-20646 I tried downloading more then 2 files simultaneously and the download is working for the first two files and fails for the others. The issue seams to be, that while the first 2 files are downloading, the remaining files are waiting and then throwing an IOErrorEvent(in about 1 minute). I used the latest flex_sdk_3.4.0.5992, the application is built in AIR and I'm using FileReference for downloading files. If you had this issue please comment, if you do a test (files are attached to the jira bug I fired) and download fails please vote for the bug. Thanks

The list would greatly compliment (NOT replace) this list if you do e-learning / multimedia training work using Flash platform technologies like Flash, Flex, Captivate, AIR, Camtasia, Articulate, FlashDevelop etc. as well as general e-learning discussions on topics like SCORM, AICC, accessibility Section 508, QTI, using Javascript, XML, evaluation, inspiration, learner theory, etc. - though mostly focused on using the Flash platform for creating e-learning.

[flexcoders] Resetting HSlider / VSlider
I have a UI with filters including an HSlider with 2 thumbs representing a start year and end year (range 1854-2008). The HSlider code looks like this: mx:HSlider id=slider_mfg_year minimum=1854 maximum=2008 thumbCount=2 values=[1854,2008] labels=[1854, 2008] width=250 tickInterval=10 snapInterval=1 dataTipFormatFunction={nf.format} liveDragging=false change=filter() horizontalCenter=0 bottom=5/ In addition, the UI has a reset button that is supposed to reset the filters to their default values. Everything is working *except* the HSlider -- I can't seem to get it to reset the thumbs to their default positions. I'm trying to do this by setting the thumb values: private function filter_reset():void { slider_mfg_year.values[0] = 1854; slider_mfg_year.values[1] = 2008; ... However, this doesn't seem to be resetting the thumb positions, just the HSlider control values, and the values/positions of the thumbs are now out of sync. How can I reset the HSlider thumbs back to their default positions/values?

My problem is that writing a whole custom component is too involved for the few time I have and your method seems to work quite well. The only trouble I have (as described in my previous reply) is that the ComboBox should fire a change event everytime an item is selected while it stays opened. By default the ComboBox is only firing this event after it closes. However listening to the dropdown (the List component in the ComboBox) property's ListEvent.CHANGE seems not to cut it.

[flexcoders] Cairngorm sub-applications Remoting
Has anyone written two distinct Cairngorm-based applications, each capable of dispatching service calls (via RemoteObject) and tried loading one inside of the other? Essentially I have a parent application that uses SWFLoader to load a sub-application (in a peer Application Domain). The sub-application loads visually within the parent application but service calls from the sub-application result in a runtime error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert obj...@x to mx.messaging.messages.ErrorMessage. JBOSS logs show this: No destination with id 'null' is registered with any service. The first error appears to be a class-aliasing problem, but both of these apps are Cairngorm-based Flex applications...the registerClassAlias method shouldn't be required (besides, I tried that tactic already to no avail). This is the only Flex-equivalent of a bat-signal I can think of ;) Erich

Re: [flexcoders] Re: crossdomain proxy
You can create simple redirect script that redirects requests from your app to requester resource Could the redirect script be done with a simple web server, including the fact that I need to append the secret key to the request, or do I need an app server (java, coldfusion, asp, php, etc.)? Drawback - all traffic goes through your host. Yeah that sucks, but that's the drawback anyway since you need some sort of proxy anyway, whether its a simple redirect or a full blown model.

[flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm sub-applications Remoting
The key thing to note: both applications are able to dispatch service calls on their own when called separately through a browser. Both applications work great on their own. Currently, I'm pointing the source attribute on SWFLoader to the swf location of the sub-application. I'm loading the app into a peer Application Domain (I believe, on the same level as the parent application - both children of the System Domain): _loaderContext.applicationDomain = new ApplicationDomain(); mySubApplication.loaderContext = m_loaderContext; mySubApplication.source = http://xyz:8080/xyz/MySubApp.swf;; I've tried loading the sub-swf into the same App domain, but since they're both Cairngorm apps and use the Cairngorm ServiceLocator singleton, I get the typical singleton error (only one servicelocator can be instantiated). My next option might be to assemble most of the logic in the sub-app into a module. My primary app can load the module and use it's own service framework for remoting (assuming I can get this to work). I can create a separate, light-weight shell container with its own service framework that can also load the same module whenever I want to use the sub-application by itself. Googling this issue isn't working...I have to assume someone out there is creating portal applications that load small sub-apps (in Cairngorm).

[flexcoders] AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider Scrolling issue
Hello, I was wondering if anyone else has come across this issue. What I am trying to do is to create a Advanced Datagrid that has various column spans that vary for each row. I was able to get this to work by using the AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider. I am running into a couple of problems though. For my project we are suppose to have a grid that can expand and become larger when the user stretches a column. When the grid gets to be a certain size, we need to turn on horizontal scrolling and continue to allow the user to change the columns sizes. The AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider spans all columns and has worked perfectly up to the point when the horizontal scroll bar is enabled. If you scroll over to see the columns that are no longer visible the AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider is no longer spanned across the columns. Do I need to do something special with this itemrenderer to allow it to span across the scrolled area? I am not doing anything fancy with the AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider. I have a code example and can post that if needed. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas.

The thing is, a web service is a very low level thing. You post XML to it and it responds in XML. Authentication is usually done in a SOAP header or less often as parameters in the SOAP body.

[flexcoders] Slider bug? Programmatic change event
Hey flexers, I've been dealing with the Slider recently and I think I'm seeing a bug, but I'd like a confirmation. I understand that when I set the value of the slider programmatically it's not supposed to dispatch a change event. This is what I want, however I'm not seeing that behavior. Looking at the Slider.value setter, I see it calls setValueAt(val, 0, true) where true is that the change is programmatic. However it also sets valuesChanged to true and calls invalidateProperties(). In commitProperties, if valuesChanged is true, it calls setValueAt with no programmatic parameter, which means it defaults to false, which means setValueAt ends up dispatching a change event. Am I crazy? Has this been submitted as a bug? I couldn't find a bug on it specifically, but I found this bug: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-16537 which is reporting that it's NOT dispatching a change event when it should. I understand the reporter of the bug was wrong in his assumptions, but the fact that he was NOT getting a change event when setting the value programmatically and I am is the confusing part. I want the result he was complaining about. :) Thanks. Aaron

I do not know that you can, without re-writing the List controls. Why do you want to do this?

[flexcoders] Re: Need Suggestions for database application.
Thanks Steve, PHP 6 is not out yet and won't be for a while. The latest Release Candidate is 5.3 and latest stable is 5.2.9. I am using 5.2.3 on Red Hat Linux. For PDO, check out http://us.php.net/manual/en/book.pdo.php. This Link dont work, I think its not complete since ends with a . (dot) For WebORB check out http://www.themidnightcoders.com/products.html I have downloaded and I think I with a new Ball and Chain which will keep me tied to a place for a while. Well I will be back after few days since Flex data connectivity is a altogether new to us so we try to develop a pilot application and come back again with some issues if any. We have to learn PHP also. I found some good PHP books in local store here which we will buy today. BTW can u suggest some good PHP IDE, if there is any ? Thanks once again and Best Regards Raja

[flexcoders] flex and component positioning
Hi, I have a problem. I have an iframe component which works fine. THe problem comes when you click on some click within the iframe. The flex is being loaded in an iframe as well and when you click on the link, the swf's positioning gets messed up. What it does it, portion of the swf will go underneath top frame although the swf code exists in another frame (which is underneath top frame). Thanks in advance!

[flexcoders] Re: Need Suggestions for database application.
PHP is good for server-side and there are frameworks that will help you encapsulate database layer so you can easily switch from one db engine to another e.g. MySQL to PGSQL,etc. Built in PHP is PHP Data objects library that can help you with this problem as well if you need a thin layer for your database layer.

Till date we have not developed any web application. We have evaluated Flex as development platform and created a small pilot application without data access and the respective client has admired general features provided by Flex. Now we would like to evaluate data access part of Flex. Now what we need is help on designing data access part of application. Since this is First Adventure for Both of us (Client and We) there is no legacy system so we are starting from scratch. Can somebody suggest how we should proceed so that there are no/minimum problem in production. At present the application being ported to we is written in Delphi with Firebird as Database Engine. Most of the business logic is stored in Stored Procedures and runs on Linux, Win XP, Win 98 as data base servers. We dont mind on time to be taken for development or efforts in developing/implementing but we expect to achieve following goals. 1 The application should be independent of Backend database. i.e. it should be able to use any of Oracle, MS-SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Firebird as backend. 2 The business logic should move from Stored procedures to some middle layer i.e. to Application server. 3 It should be possible to separate application server and database server i.e. application server and Database servers can be at different physical locations or they can reside on same server. 4 the communication between database server-application server and application Server-Client should be secured one or may be encrypted so that man in middle is not able to modify the data To best of our knowledge we have got a rough layout as follows. To start with have spring as application server with hibernate integration for data access. Then Flex application will communicate with application server through BlazeDS. Can somebody suggest us a better way of doing it so that above goals are achieved and efforts are minimised for both development/implementation and maintenance.
