You can create a empty dynamic class and at run time you can add properties to 
it.For some glimpse for dynamic class and adding attribute at run time

Re: [flexcoders] create class on the fly

There are a number of important techniques for manipulating classes (as detailed
in my post http://nodename.com/blog/2008/06/15/upon-reflection/ ), but
unfortunately
creating a class at runtime is not possible in AS3.

Re: [flexcoders] BrowserManager not working

[edencane]

Hi. 

trace(url1) outputs the server name and port eg. 'www.myserver.com:7070'

Alex: I am using http:// not file://

So the problem occurs when I use:
navigateToURL(u,"_self");
This loads the url, but whatever information is needed by BrowserManager to
extract the URL, is not included because when the page loads (this second
time), the BrowserManager object is null...

any clues anyone?

Thanks.

[flexcoders] create class on the fly

[postwick]

I want to store descriptions of classes in an external file (such as XML) or 
database, and use them in my Flex application such that I can add, remove, or 
change the classes in the external file with recompling the Flex application.

Is there any way to do this?  In a nutshell, is there a way to create a class 
through an Actionscript function, with a for loop where the information that is 
looped over contains the definitions of the classes loaded from an external 
source?

RE: [flexcoders] Actionscript Number BUG?!!!

[Gordon Smith]

Because the Number type, which takes up 64 bits, can only store 15 or 16 
significant decimal digits. It doesn't do infinite precision arithmetic.

[flexcoders] Possible to create a chart with clustered & overlaid columns? (picture inside)

I haven't been able to find an example of this, or any indication in the docs 
of how to do this, but I would imagine it is possible.

I want to chart some data that is hierarchical. Essentially each parent has a 
few children. I want the children to be clustered columns inside a big column 
which indicates the parent (which is the sum of all the children)

I found this example image which kinda shows what I am thinking of:

[flexcoders] BarChart - CartesianDataCanvas lifecycle problem

[EddieBerman]

Due to a bug that causes chart item labels to not appear
(https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FLEXDMV-2158
  ), I'm having to
create my own chart item labels.  Though a simple approach is to add
labels to the itemRenderers, I can't use that method in this particular
instance.
Instead, I'm looking at using a CartesianDataCanvas annotationElement
that contains an array of labels.
Since the chart displays real-time data that updates every 5 seconds,
the thought was to use the chart's updateComplete event to first set the
label's text and then position each label using updateDataChild().
The problem is that this causes another update cycle of the chart
itself, which becomes an unending loop.
Is there a way to set the text and position of a label on the
CartesianDataCanvas as the absolute last step of the update process such
that it won't restart the updating process?

Thanks in advance.

[flexcoders] Flex 4 - Backgrounds and Layout Awkwardness

[Baz]

In Flex 4 there is no longer such a thing as a 'background'. Instead, you
define a rectangle in a skin with the fill properties that you need. This is
great for many reasons, but it also causes some awkwardness with layouts. If
your skin needs to define a background but also other elements like images,
or vector graphics that need to be laid out horizontally, or vertically, or
tiled (using the new layout mechanisms) - you can't - because since the
background is just another first order element it will also adhere to the
layout you specify and no longer encompass the entire component and act like
a background.

Is there anyway to get around this? If not can I safely say that if you need
a background in a skin then you have no choice but to use basiclayout?

Thanks,
Baz

I have added a custom itemRenderer and hooked (i believe) everything up. Now i

layout="absolute"
 creationComplete="onCreationComplete()">
 
 
 
 http://action.gcsc.att.com/v2dev/test2.php";
 useProxy="false" method="POST"/>


PHP:


Check the debug.txt file. It should look like:
Array
(
 [-1] => A
 [0] => B
 [1] => C
)

Note: This is also shown in Charles (http://www.charlesproxy.com)

[flexcoders] PHP $_POST Array with HTTPService

[kenny14390]

Hi,

We all know about PHP's ability to send an array through the $_POST
variable, in a form for example:

[form method="POST" action=""]
[text type="input" name="data[name]"/]
...
[/form]

But how can I achieve that through Flex's HTTPService?

If I were to print_r($_POST) in the PHP page, this is would I would like
to see:


Array
(
 [data] => Array
 (
 [-1] => A
 [0] => B
 [1] => C
 )

)

I have tried this programmatically while calling the send(params:Object)
method of the HTTPService, with the Object containing {data:
{'-1':'A','0':'B','1':'C'}} but the result is more like [data] =>
[object Object]


Any ideas how to mimic PHP's ability to POST an array?


Note: I can achieve this easily with GET, by appending
"data[-1]=A&data[0]=B&data[1]=C" to the URL, but my problem requires
POST.



Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Gumbo Graphs

[Peter Cowling]

Hi Tom,

I have not used fx:Application before; is it not s:Application?

I am not so sure that it is bugs in Flex 4 that are causing the problem, 
because: 
 
1. I can compile in Flash Builder 4, using the old (2006) mxml namespace (at 
the application level); switch that out and try to use the new namespace - or a 
combination of the two, and no dice.  
2. A bit of scouting pinpoints the issue as being where degrafa has things like 
Rectangles and Matrix3D, which have equivalents in Flex 4, but are different - 
in terms of their property names, and sometimes operations.
3. Degrafa do not claim to support Flex 4 - only 3 (and perhaps 2, I cannot 
remember).

Hence my casting around to try and get a better feel for the situation...

Thanks for your thoughts so far, and

Regards

Peter Cowling

You should be able to load Flex 3 source into a Flex 4 fx:Application fine. If 
it's not working, that's a bug in Flex 4, at a guess.

I don't know of any plans to port the Adobe data visualisation parts from Flex 
3 to 4, see my first point.

[flexcoders] Calling List.change (or equivalent) from within a custom itemRenderer?

[sixtypercentliquid]

I have a TileList, i have been using the change method to call a function and 
passing the ListEvent.

I have added a custom itemRenderer and hooked (i believe) everything up. Now i 
need to essentially call the TileList.change event from part of the UI within 
the custom renderer.

Having a hard time figuring this out, tried searching for a while.

So, how do you get your storeCust arrayCollection?

When this is populated from the server call, check to see if there is an admin 
item. If there is, set admin.visible = true and admin.includeinlayout = true.

[flexcoders] Re: Trying to change Flex 3 ToggleButtonBar dataprovider on user or admin log in

[valdhor]

If I were to do this I would return different data depending on user or admin 
login. The dataprovider would remain the same - just the data would change.

[flexcoders] Re: Error: Unknown Property: 'constructor'. when using LCDS

[valdhor]

Is this a problem only when using LCDS?

Is this a Flex error or a coldfusion error?

If it is a Flex error it has got to be with the Datagrid control.

If it is a Coldfusion error, then, sorry, I can't help you but there should be 
others around who can.

[flexcoders] Re: Set up zendamf with flexbuilder

[valdhor]

handoyo

I went to the site you specified and downloaded the files. This is what
I did to get things working...

- Created a directory on my server at the same level as the "Zend"
directory named "FlexZend". This is not required but I did not want to
clutter my server. I then copied the two files named "zend_gateway.php"
and "test_class.php" into the "FlexZend" directory.

- Modified the "zend_gateway.php" so the include path knows where the
Zend directory is. On my server this is:

 $path = '/var/www/flex';
 set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . $path);

 You may not need to do this if you have set the include path in your
php.ini file to include the "Zend" directory.

- Imported the phpintegration zip file into Flex.

- Opened the services-config.xml file and modified the endpoint uri to
point to the "zend_gateway.php" file I copied earlier
(http://www.myserver.com/flex/FlexZend/zend_gateway.php)

- Opened phpintegration.mxml and clicked the debug button. Once the app
started, I put my name in the box and clicked the button. Unfortunately,
this gave me a security sandbox error "Error: [strict] Ignoring policy
file at http://www.myserver.com/crossdomain.xml due to incorrect syntax.
See http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files to fix this problem.".
After reading the file and fixing my crossdomain.xml file, I restarted
the app, Typed in my name and clicked the button. An Alert box popped up
with "Hello Steve! This is php saying hello!", which is what I expected.

So, the tutorial is fine. Perhaps you haven't set up your server
correctly. Try downloading the latest version of Zend Framework (Note
that there is a patched version at the moment specifically for users of
Zend_AMF) and using the framework documentation to set it up. Perhaps
you did not set the include path to include the Zend directory in your
php.ini file.

[flexcoders] Gumbo Graphs

[pedrocpedroc]

Hi,

I have been using data visulization tools based on Degrafa - my own, things 
like Birdeye, and more recently Axiis.  Cool, but none of them work in Flex 
4/Gumbo - because the current version of Degrafa is not meant to be used with 
Gumbo.

So, I am trying work which of the following options to pursue:

Swap out the Degrafa part for a self-built FXG graph engine - which will take a 
fair amount of time. 

Wait for a Gumbo updated version of Degrafa - anyone know if it is being 
updated for Gumbo?

Take a look at any open source data visualization efforts targetting a Gumbo 
release - again, anyone know if there are any?

Use the native Flex 4 data visulization suite.  I have a Flex Builder 3 
Professional license, but have not yet used it to get the Flash Builder 4 
extension; is it the case that this will remove the 'trial' notice or will that 
only be the case once Flash builder 4 is out of Beta?

Thanks in advance for any answers.

[Tracy Spratt]

First, to make it completely clear, when working with the data, you must
always use the underlying dataProvider and item and never the DataGrid or
cell itself.  This is because itemRenderers are recycled.  You can never do
any row level work in a renderer in creationComplete for the same reason,
but must override the set data() function.  Google this.

 

Also, if I am understanding correctly, there are two other ways to do this.

 

You mentioned labelFunction.  That is one way. A label function has access
to the entire row item, and can use the values of any property/cell for the
display logic.

 

You could also create a value object with a calculated property.

 

Note that if you update the dataProvider programmatically, you should use
the dataProvider collection API in order to ensure the correct events are
dispatched to update the UI.  You can call itemUpdated() if you assign the
value of an item.property directly.

Hello, 

I'm trying to do an application where the user can select images and put in
on a panel (similar the example Diagrammer in the tour of Flex). 

Could you send me some example?

 

Thanks

I'm trying to set the selectedItem for the given example. But I'm having all
sorts of problems. 

The tree's dataprovider is XML. I'm only interested in selecting the child
nodes (@label == "Receipt").. ..that means I have to expand the menu as
well.

Can someone give me some ideas?
