Re: [flexcoders] Re: NEED more than 15 menu item in Context Menu ????
We grab the right click in our .NET app and display that. I belive we capture the event from the control so the native Flash menu isn't shown. This works really well.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex + Java + Hibernate
madhavaram123 写道:
Hi All,
I am facing a peculiar problem while saving the data. Below is the detailed
explanation what I am doing. I always get the problem as a different object
with the same identifier value was already associated with the session
But the above error does not come when I try to save the same object from
java.
Below is the Parent Class in java
[code]
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Set;
/**
* Employee entity. @author MyEclipse Persistence Tools
*/
public class Employee implements java.io.Serializable {
private Integer employeeId;
private String name;
private List communicationTypes = new ArrayList();
// getters and setters follows
[/code]
Below is the Parent class in Flex
[code]
package manageCustomList.employee
{
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
[Bindable]
[RemoteClass(alias=com.config.Employee)]
public class Employee
{
public function Employee()
{
}
public var employeeId:int;
public var name:String;
public var communicationTypes:Array;
}
}
[/code]
Below is the Child Class in java
[code]
public class CommunicationType extends Employee implements
java.io.Serializable {
private Integer comTypeId;
private Integer typeId;
private String typeName;
// getters and setters follows
}
[/code]
Below is the child Class in Flex
[code]
package manageCustomList.employee
{
import mx.controls.List;
[Bindable]
[RemoteClass(alias=com.config.CommunicationType)]
public class CommunicationType extends Employee
{
public function CommunicationType()
{
}
public var comTypeId:int;
public var typeId:int;
public var typeName:String;
}
}
[/code]
Below is the method to save the object in the database
[code]
public static Employee create(Employee employee) throws DAOException
{
Session session = HibernateSessionFactory.getSession();
try
{
session.beginTransaction();
session.save(employee);
session.getTransaction().commit();
session.flush();
session.evict(employee);
}
catch (HibernateException exp) {
exp.printStackTrace();
} finally {
session.close();
}
return employee;
}
[/code]
Below is my mxml
[code]
private function save():void {
employee = new Employee();
employee.listId = Number(listId.text);
employee.name = empName.text;
var childList:Array = new Array();
for(var i:int=0;icheckList.selectedIndices.length;i++){
comType = new CommunicationType();
comType.typeId = checkList.selectedIndices[i];
comType.typeName =
checkList.dataProvider[checkList.selectedIndices[i]].label;
childList.push(comType);
}
employee.communicationTypes = childList;
emp.create(employee);
}
[/code]
when I do the above i get the error as a different object with the same
identifier value was already associated with the session
But when I try to save the employee from java as below. It gets saved without
any problem.
[code]
public static void main(String[] args) {
Employee emp = new Employee();
emp.setName(fresh from java only 2);
CommunicationType comType = new CommunicationType();
comType.setTypeId(1);
comType.setTypeName(typeName);
List comSet = new ArrayList();
comSet.add(comType);
emp.setCommunicationTypes(comSet);
create(emp);
}[/code]
below are my hbm files
Employee.hbm.xml
[code]

Re: [flexcoders] LCDS async error
No, tis not 1, all our error handeling uses FaultEvent. How I would have approached this with other parts of the framework. Copy the adobe class into my src folder, make the change needed to avoid the error and let my changed class override the adobe implementation at compile time (what are the implications for this with split framework rsl?), obviously this is not an option now. :( On Mon, May 25, 2009 at 7:28 PM, Jeffrey Vroom j...@jvroom.com wrote: I see two possible things that could cause this error: 1) you have a fault handler whose function definition takes a MessageFaultEvent parameter.

RE: [flexcoders] dnd list items
http://www.axelscript.com/2008/03/26/creating-a-dragimage-from-your-uicomponent/
This is a blog post a friend of mine wrote about this. Specifically you want
this method:
public function getUIComponentBitmapData( target : UIComponent ) : BitmapData
{
var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData( target.width, target.height
);
var m:Matrix = new Matrix();
bd.draw( target, m );
return bd;
}
This gets bitmap data for whatever UIComponent you may be using for the
renderer. Then, here’s his function to initiate dragging:
private function doDrag(e:MouseEvent):void
{
//create an aliase for easier coding for the uicomponent
var target:UIComponent = e.currentTarget as UIComponent;
//http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=152558
var lvImageClone:Image = new Image();
lvImageClone.source = new
Bitmap(getUIComponentBitmapData(target));
var lvDragSource:DragSource = new DragSource();
lvDragSource.addData( target, items );
// Call the DragManager doDrag() method to start the drag.
DragManager.doDrag(target, lvDragSource, e, lvImageClone, 0, 0,
dragImageAlpha);
}
What is important here is the last line. DragManager.doDrag takes the alpha as
a parameter so you can have a fully transparent background. You’ll have to add
the border yourself.

RE: [flexcoders] String To Date Conversion
First thing you need to do is to convert the timezone IST into whatever its difference is from GMT. (I have no idea what timezone IST is, so this is not accurate). So your string Tue May 26 18:12:55 IST 2009 would turn into Tue May 26 18:12:55 GMT -0200 2009 once you've done this then you can parse the string. var time : String = 'Tue May 26 18:12:55 GMT -0200 2009'; //Day Mon DD HH:MM:SS TZD var num : Number = Date.parse(time); var date : Date = new Date(num); That's it.

[flexcoders] itunes clipboard format not understood in AIR
Hi there, I've been trying to drag a song from itunes into my app, but the clipboard (in AIR) doesn't seem to have any format acceptable to AIR. Does anyone have any idea how to overcome this? thanks!
Re: [flexcoders] itunes clipboard format not understood in AIR
4 sure. We had some luck with a javascript window where we would drag the file but the problem was the only real way to know where the file was going to be (if the plan was to keep a reference to it) was to camp on the library xml files and those get rewritten when iTunes closes or music is imported (or cover-art is downloaded, etc,etc). Remember, you can ask iTunes to organize your library into a common tree and that killed our attempts to try to persist our own reference in Air. The Flex XML parser isn¹t completely happy with the iTunes library XML format so we ended up breaking the XML up and creating a track-only document but it was pretty fragile as there were so many ways to blow up the xml.

[flexcoders] Re: Problem importing classes with D.eval
I don't think you can use D.eval in the way you are trying to.
After reading the documentation, there are a few things you need to do...
Instantiate an object of the type you are trying to use. You don't need to use
this object but it needs to be created so Flex adds the class to the SWC. For
example...
import mx.controls.Label;
var xxx:Label = new Label();
To crate a new Label (I think) you would have to do it this way...
var prog:String = 'import mx.controls.Label;\n' + 'new Label()';
var myLabel:Label = D.eval(prog) as Label;
You will probably need to contact the developers of D.eval for further support.
This API seems very specialized and, it seems, you are the only one using it
(Other than the developer).

Hi,
I write you again because I haven't manage to use D.importClass(Label);
However, by using personnal classes, I was able to indirectly create labels,
here is
the code:
I have try to create a personal class which inerit of Label class
or which have a Label property. The two working examples show how I did :
Example 1 what it works :

import mx.controls.Label;
public class maClasse extends Label
{
public function maClasse(name:String)
{

Example 2 what it works (just maClasse changed) :
maClasse.as :
package
{
import mx.controls.Label;
public class maClasse
{
public var lab:Label;
public function maClasse(name:String)
{
super();
lab = new Label();
super.text = name;
}
}
}
_
These examples work pretty fine. No runtime error.
However it's still impossible to directly import and use a Label with D.eval,
following code fails at runtime:
The error message is :
Runtime Error: msg.rt.no.class [line:1]

We suspect a problem with namespace or something like that (Label is defined
under a
specific namespace)
But we don't know how to import a namespace in D.eval neither how to use the
namespaceand neither if it's really the problem ;o)
Does anyone have an idea about that problem?

Re: [flexcoders] dnd list items
Jake,
I cannot use bitmapdata because i'll have to use an instance of itemrenderer
which will have some different display behavior when used as proxy.
I've managed to get a transparent bg, I had to set explicitly in css class
applied to the *list* (because proxied itemrenderer use
styleName=List(owner);) :
background-color: '';
BTW, selection-color set to empty string draws a black bg...

http://www.axelscript.com/2008/03/26/creating-a-dragimage-from-your-uicomponent/
This is a blog post a friend of mine wrote about this. Specifically you
want this method:
public function getUIComponentBitmapData( target : UIComponent ) :
BitmapData
{
var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData( target.width,
target.height );
var m:Matrix = new Matrix();
bd.draw( target, m );
return bd;
}
This gets bitmap data for whatever UIComponent you may be using for the
renderer. Then, here’s his function to initiate dragging:
private function doDrag(e:MouseEvent):void
{
//create an aliase for easier coding for the uicomponent
var target:UIComponent = e.currentTarget as UIComponent;
//
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=152558
var lvImageClone:Image = new Image();
lvImageClone.source = new
Bitmap(getUIComponentBitmapData(target));
var lvDragSource:DragSource = new DragSource();
lvDragSource.addData( target, items );
// Call the DragManager doDrag() method to start the drag.
DragManager.doDrag(target, lvDragSource, e, lvImageClone,
0, 0, dragImageAlpha);
}
What is important here is the last line. DragManager.doDrag takes the
alpha as a parameter so you can have a fully transparent background. You’ll
have to add the border yourself.

[flexcoders] Is it possible to layer div|iframe over flash app without wmode=transparent
Hi Folks, We have built a flash app that currently layers an HTML div over the flash for some key functionality (non h264 video playback). Everything is working fine, our first deployment is in France this summer and we are doing our translations ect... Unfortunately, it seems we are now one of many stuck with this Mozilla bug that does not fully support French keyboard layout with flash apps running in wmode=transparent|opaque Although, I have confirmed the issue is pretty much resolved with FireFox 3.5 beta(with Flash player 10) due to be released early next month, I am exploring all our options and would much prefer not forcing our end users to upgrade to the latest Firefox and flash player(although not a bad thing from my perspective). As far as I have read(and tested) this is not possible with Firefox, and the flash plugin does not respect its assigned z-index and does not allow content to be layered on top without a wmode=transparent|opaque... Does anyone know if it is possible or not to layer html content div|iframe over a flash app without wmode=window? Any help is much appreciated, Greg

[flexcoders] High CPU usage
Hi, Can anyone direct me to resources on how to track/profile/explore CPU usage in a Flex app? I've googled without any real success. In an app I'm developing, the CPU usage seemed to suddenly shoot up to near 100%. Now, I'm sure that it didn't happen suddenly; I'm sure I just wasn't paying attention. But there's nothing apparent going on that should create high usage -- no video, no effects -- just some simple forms. I've spent the day commenting out pieces to boil the app down to its essence, to try to see where this problem is creeping in. But it seems to come from multiple components, all of which are fairly simple forms, with some validations, some bindings to properties on an object being edited -- pretty much, the usual stuff. Yet, I'm sitting here looking at the app, trimmed down to where only one of these form elements exists within a tabNavigator, and I'm seeing almost 40% usage with (apparently) nothing happening. There's no memory problem -- the profiler shows maybe 15Mb going to the application. But the CPU is going crazy. I've tested on several machines, and the high CPU usage is consistent, although, of course, the actual percentage varies. I don't expect an answer (though I'd love one); I'm just hoping for some pointers on how to troubleshoot this. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560

[flexcoders] Setting the width and height of a RichEditableText component based on text
I'm creating a custom item renderer for Spark List. To start, I modified the default renderer skin. The default skin uses SimpleText to display a label. I need to make the text selectable, so it appears that RichEditableText is the appropriate choice for me. I tried to just replace SimpleText with RichEditableText (and set selectable=true), but the auto sizing does not utilize the full width of the list. It actually is consistently 25 characters in width, while the height does vary based on the text. How can I make the RichEditableText component utilize the full width of the Spark List (useVirtualLayout=true), while also varying height based on the multi-line text?

[flexcoders] Re: Value Objects
Yes, the nomenclature is disconcerting. I reviewed your link however am unfamiliar with java/jsp and thus couldn't necessarily follow. Nonetheless it seemed to say that mapping flex properties to the database properties (returned via jsp/cfusion) offers various advantages -- mostly related to strict typing. Fair enough, but insofar as by using Stored Procedures I (think I) am able to push a great deal of the BizLogic/ControllerLayer right to the database (ie NOT the cfusion or even Flex/ViewLayer), what the hell do I care??? I'm so newbie that I hesitate to presume/assert anything but A.) this VO stuff is really boggling/pissing me off and B.) isn't it an imposition to make the view/Flex process/organize the returned data? Why not just throw results into sharedObjects (aka Flash cookies) on the hard drive? Maybe I'm missing something . . .

I've googled without any real success. In an app I'm developing, the CPU usage seemed to suddenly shoot up to near 100%. Now, I'm sure that it didn't happen suddenly; I'm sure I just wasn't paying attention. But there's nothing apparent going on that should create high usage -- no video, no effects -- just some simple forms. I've spent the day commenting out pieces to boil the app down to its essence, to try to see where this problem is creeping in. But it seems to come from multiple components, all of which are fairly simple forms, with some validations, some bindings to properties on an object being edited -- pretty much, the usual stuff. Yet, I'm sitting here looking at the app, trimmed down to where only one of these form elements exists within a tabNavigator, and I'm seeing almost 40% usage with (apparently) nothing happening. There's no memory problem -- the profiler shows maybe 15Mb going to the application. But the CPU is going crazy. I've tested on several machines, and the high CPU usage is consistent, although, of course, the actual percentage varies. I don't expect an answer (though I'd love one); I'm just hoping for some pointers on how to troubleshoot this.

Re: [flexcoders] wmode=transparent and accessibility does it work?
It does not work. Without getting into too much detail, transparent Flash objects can't expose accessibility data because they're embedded in the HTML document differently, and they can't express the MSAA data needed. The same is true for wmode=opaque, by the way. The only supported way is wmode=window, which is the default. It's not a bug, per se; it's a fundamental limitation of the mode. However, it is possible to use something like FlashAid to test for the presence of assistive technology before loading the page, and then set wmode=window on subsequent pages if AT is in use. - m On 5/26/09 3:12 PM, Greg Hess flexeff...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Folks, I have been reading many posts on issues with screen readers(JAWS) when using the wmode=transparent|opaque, basically they state accessibility does not work with transparent or opaque flash applications.

[flexcoders] Flex unloading SFW- memory management
Hi all,
I m facing a problem with dynamic loading/unloading of swf. I'm using a
class mycustomSWFLoader which extends SWFLoader and which use an instance
of Loader class to load swf files (graphics data) from serialized SWF in
bytearrays.
All seem to be ok, I can display any of my swf, but the flash player does
not free memory (the previous loaded swf) when I load a new swf.
I have tried this approach :
class myCustomSWFLoader extends SWFLoader {
public function loadSWF(myByteArray: ByteArray):void {
if(_loader != null) {
// Call the unload stop on _loader object
_loader.unloadAndStop();
// Call the unload stop on THIS
unloadAndStop();
} else {
_loader = new Loader();
_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
swfLoaded);
MY_CONTAINER.addChild(this);
}
if(myByteArray)
_loader.loadBytes(myByteArray);
else
source = null;
}
...
I'm not sure about how the flash player handdle the unloadAndStop() but what
is sure is that each time I call my method memory usage increases by 2Mb
Any help would be much appreciated !
Thanks by advance

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Flex DataGrid Filter via Popup Window
Some updates on this.
Instead of the codes inside a function, what I did was create a custom MXML
Component (selecting File | New | MXML Component) and selecting TileWindow
on the Based As dropdown list.
In the button, I created a function that calls the MXML component via the
following codes:
private function launchFilterDialog( ) :void
{
var winFilter:FilterDia log = PopUpManager. createPopUp( this,
FilterDialog, true) as FilterDialog;
PopUpManager. centerPopUp( winFilter) ;
}
Next step is to be able to pass the column names as defined in the datagrid
and bind those column names into the combo box which I placed in the MXML
component.
So I am left with the following things to do:
1. Get the column names of the datagrid which is in the calling flex
application.
2. Pass those column names into the MXML component and bind them into the
combo box.
3. When a selection is made on the filter dialog window and valid filter is
specified, clicking on the OK button would filter the datagrid of the
calling flex application.
4. A clear button would clear the filter(s) specified on the datagrid.
Inputs would be highly appreciated in doing Item no. 1

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex DataGrid Filter via Popup Window
Hello FlexCoders,
I am trying to implement a datagrid filtering mechanism to datagrids in my
application.
In this process, I want to show a popup window where it would act like a
response window. The popup window will contain three controls, namely, two
comboboxes, and a textinput control. One of the combo box would contain the
columns currently displayed in the datagrid. The other combo box would
contain common comparison operators (i.e. =, !=, , , like, etc.). Of
course, there would also be two buttons - OK and Cancel to perform the
filter operations.
I found a popup panel example here..
http://blog. flexexamples. com/2007/ 08/06/creating-
http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/08/06/creating-custom-pop-up-windows-with
-the-popupmanager-class/ custom-pop- up-windows- with-the- popupmanager-
class/
But in this example, he is defining the content of the popup panel.
Since we know that the controls in the popup panel is fixed, would it be
possible to just create another control which contains the controls we have
defined? Then, the combobox panel would be populated with the columns in
the datagrid where it was called. When the column selection from the combo
box is made, the operator also selected and the text input is filled up with
the value to filter, clicking on OK button would filter the datagrid.
Another reason that I wanted that the filter mechanism reusable because I
have a lot of mxml with datagrid that requires the same filter
functionality. It would not be too good if I would place all the codes in
each mxml, right?
I am not sure if this approach would be good. If in case you have other
approach on how to filter the datagrid, kindly let me know.
Thanks.

[flexcoders] Cause Label to resize after setting text
I am implementing a Marquee component using a Canvas and a Move effect on a child label. I want the effect to play only when the label is wider than the canvas. When a setter function sets the Label's text property, the label has not been resized to fit the new text yet, so I can't test: if (myLabel.width this.width) in the setter I have not yet found the right invalidation, or event or override to trigger my measure logic. Any suggestions? Tracy Spratt, Lariat Services, development services available

Re: [flexcoders] Value Objects
I never really thought about it, but now that I think about it, I imagine
that typing an object will provide tremendous performance gains as Flex
works its data binding. If the values are typed then the JIT knows where to
look to set the value. Other wise it would be searching it as a generic
object.

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Value Objects
The use of 'VO's in Flex has always confused me, largely because as everyone
I've spoken to has explained it, all a 'Value' object is is just a Model
object - therefore WTF are they being referred to as 'VO's when 'Object' (or
Model object) would suffice. My understanding is that the Object
representation's deep structure references objects ByRef, but Transfer Objects
reference nonserializable/non-native objects by id. That is, if you have Dog
{ id:int; parent:Dog; } the TO becomes DogTO {id:int; parentID:int;}
I'm still yet to have anyone explain it to me in a way which contradicts this
way of looking at things.

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Value Objects
Hey Mike,
You'll see VO and DTO used interchangeably, I believe this is because
Cairngorm used to use Data Transfer Object and then switched to Value Objects
at some point.
That being said... this article gives a very basic example of passing data to
and from a server strictly typed, which is what you are trying to accomplish.
http://flex.sys-con.com/node/505875 ( ick syscon... anyone know where the real
article is? )
The key is the using the [RemoteClass(alias=java.package.Class)], so that
when Flex serializes and de-serializes the object, it knows what corresponding
class on the server your object represents.
I seem to recall that when creating VOs (or DTOs) with a ColdFusion service,
you needed to add extra methods to assist in the serialization.
Maybe someone else add to this? I've been out of CF for a while now.

I've come via a MySql to CF to Flex learning path.
As such, 1.) my flex app uses mx:RemoteObject with source= pointing at a CFC
(in wwwroot/test/cfcs directory).
2.) Said cfc calls a MySql STORED PROCEDURE which returns (say) a list of
owners (id, firstname, lastname, etc).
3.) CF passes this back to Flex (apparently in the form of an Object?).
4.) Flex then binds this returned data to a mx:DataGrid.
Now I've read extensively on VOs (as well as Cairngorm/MVC) yet don't fully
understand either the why or the how.
Assuming as basic an example as possible, I need to use AS3 to first define
then instantiate an ownerVO, then a function to populate the ownerVO with the
results of the RemoteObject then I populate the DataGrid with ownerVOs
Comments and/or directions to appropriate learning resources appreciated.
