[flexcoders] AIR app as a controlled desktop

2009-07-21 Thread simonjpalmer 
I have a requirement to prohibit users from accessing the desktop while using 
my app (it is for sitting exams).  Is there a way to get an AIR app to maximise 
itself, or to control the entire desktop region, capturing all clicks?  I want 
to be able to start my app, have it "take over" the user experience, a bit like 
PowerPoint in presentation mode, and only go back to the desktop when unlocked 
by an administrator.

Any pointers?

RE: [flexcoders] Datagrid won't let me select row

2009-07-21 Thread Alex Harui 
Either binding or some other logic is restoring the selection (I'd watch the 
CHANGE events or set a breakpoint to see if that's true), or the data has 
non-unique UIDs

Subject: [flexcoders] Datagrid won't let me select row



What would cause a datagrid to keep it's current selection "locked".

In my application, I have a datagrid that is bound to an XMLListCollection. I 
can navigate away to another another module which shares the same data using 
Cairngorm, and then when I come back to the original module, I re-select the 
row I need in the datagrid programmatically by looping through the 
XMLListCollection and looking for the item with the same ID.

This all works fine. However, sometimes...but not all the time, if I click on 
another datagrid row, I can see the higlight of the row I want but when I 
release the mouse, the original row is still selected. It also seems to only 
happen when I have a top or bottom row selected and then try to select a row 
above or below this one.

Just curious if anyone else has had similar datagrid woes and if there is 
something I should be looking for. It seems that the databinding perhaps is 
locking in this selection but I am not sure where to look or what is causing 
this.

Wow, thanks for your advances, then i would like to ask, by replacing these 
class, how can i at the same time make use of the framework.swz to compile 
those small modules swf? As there may be case which Main App may not include 
all the class in framework.swc and thus in link-report does not include those 
class. Then the use of an modified SDK unsigned framework.swc means removed the 
ability to cached signed framework class. Or actually, during compilation of 
these small swfs, I should use load-extern for the modified SDK framework?

I didn't see that either, but since it's brought up, is there any plan to
have "table" implemented in TLF any time soon ? I thought there's a
ready-made solution in buzzword, probably the team consider sharing it ?

(and yes, I totally understand TLF != HTML, so it's a bit over to ask for
this feature but it's really a nice-to-have...)

Cool, I kind of like this way better though:

private function dgClick():void
{
  var curTick:String = dgOrdExt.selectedItem.Ticker;

  for each ( var exits:Exits in Array_Exits )
  {
   if ( exits.Ticker == curTick )
   {
dgExits.selectedIndex = Array_Exits.getItemIndex( exits
);
   }
  }
}

A little cleaner than using a counter.

RE: [flexcoders] variables name are in array

2009-07-21 Thread Gordon Smith 
It doesn't work because arrName[i] is the name string, not the value. This code 
is the equivalent of executing

"myvar" = 1

What are you actually trying to do? If you need to save name/value pairs, you 
would normally just use an Object. For example, you could declare

private var obj:Object = {};

and later set

obj[name1] = value1;
obj[name2] = value2;

You can then retrieve all the names and values like this:

for (var name:String in obj)
  trace(name, obj[name]);

Re: [flexcoders] Adobe Air related ANT task

2009-07-21 Thread Tandon, Rishi 
I just find out the bug related to the flex ant tasks for referencing a embed 
assets in the project.
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-16991
But, it is related to Linux.

In my case, all the embedded assets reference in MXML or css file could not 
locate the assets inside the embedded assets.

For eg,.
Asset references inside action script:
backgroundImage="@Embed(source='embed_assets/ChipsSkins.swf#Chip_activeBlueBackground')"
 

whereas the actual Embed asset folder:
C:\proj\ProjectNAMe\src\embed_assets

As usual, I have added the source path to the ant task.

The small work around that  I got is to add the back slash at the beginning 
i.e. 
backgroundImage="@Embed(source='/embed_assets/ChipsSkins.swf#Chip_activeBlueBackground')"
  
It should start picking up from the source path. (No errors for this part)

But I don't want to change the hundreds references in different files.
As well as, by changing the path like that in the CSS file, it shows an error.

Please advice!

Rishi

Hi flex coders,

I am creating the build file for the Adobe AIR app.
It works for simple application i.e. compiling, launching and packaging.

But in my case the application is large with lots of sub directories.

The point I am facing the problem is who to add "embed-assets" into the 
application.

i.e. during the build it is showing me unable to resolve 'embed-assets/ 
abc.swf' for transcoding error.

actually it could not find the path to the assets which is inside some 
sub-directory.

So how can I point to the compile target for the same.

If I know the equivalent compiler option for the same, that would be a great 
help

Using the Flex Builder, I could easily compile and run the application.

RE: [flexcoders] Modulos ? Framework ? Flex 4 ?

2009-07-21 Thread Alex Harui 
I would recommend modules.  I don't have any recommendations for an app 
framework.

Flex 4 will ship in early 2010.

Subject: [flexcoders] Modulos ? Framework ? Flex 4 ?



Dear listeros 

I come from using the Flex 2 version. And now version 3. But without any
modules and without Framework.

I want to start a project very important and big in size, so the
question is ..

Modules should I use?

Framework that I should Cairngorn, PureMVC, Mate or Switzerland?

Mate and Switzerland are not in production, some of you use it in
important developments?

Taking into account very close to Flex 4. I should start this new
venture with Flex 4?

When is the release of Flex 4?

Thank you very much for everything

Estimados listeros

Vengo utilizando Flex desde la versión 2., y actualmente la versión 3.;
pero sin Modulos y sin ningún Framework.

Quiero iniciar un proyecto bastante importante y grande en cuanto a
tamaño, por lo tanto la pregunta es ..

Me conviene utilizar Modulos ?

Que Framework me conviene , Cairngorn, PureMVC, Mate o Swiz ?

Mate y Swiz no estan en produccion, alguno de Uds. lo utiliza en
desarrollos importantes ?

Teniendo en cuenta a Flex 4 muy proximo., me conviene empezar este nuevo
emprendimiento con Flex 4 ?

Para cuando es la liberación de Flex 4 ?

Muchas gracias por todo

All of a sudden, BitDefender is reporting a virus called 
Exploit.SWF.Gen in the every copy of the applicationupdater_ui.swc

[flexcoders] Re: AMF, IE, and a non-trusted certificate

2009-07-21 Thread Anthony DeBonis 
Tom,

More information on this IE issue - we don't think its a cert issue at all 
because if we compile with the Flex 4 SDK it works fine in IE.  Any ideas?

[flexcoders] AlivePDF 0.1.4.9 not generating pdf

2009-07-21 Thread netdeep 
Does anyone here have experience with AlivePDF?

I am using 0.1.4.9. in Flex (tried both 3.0 and 3.3) and…nothing happens. I 
tried it with create.php, create.java, and looked into saving it with Flash 
Player 10 (but couldn't find any real documentation on how to make that work). 
I just get a blank new browser window. No error message, no anything.

I add the swc file to my library path, used the turotial sample code…and still 
nothing happens:

myPDF = new PDF();
var page:Page = new Page ( Orientation.PORTRAIT, Unit.MM, Size.A4 );
myPDF.addPage(page);
myPDF.lineStyle(new RGBColor(0×99), 1,1,1);
myPDF.drawCircle(20,20,20);
var path:String = getBaseURL() + "/terracotta/create.php";
myPDF.save(Method.REMOTE, path, Download.INLINE, "viewChart.pdf");

that's great. The first article states that tables are also supported, but if I 
remember correct that used to be reserved for a later version?

[flexcoders] getStyleDefinition

2009-07-21 Thread Julian Tenney 
Hi,

Maybe someone can shed some light on this.

I need to get at runtime a list of styles a particular component
supports. I am using the Flex 4 SDK.

I have read about ComponentClass.getStyleDefinition() but cannot get it
to work. I see this is a method inherited from UIComponent, but it
always returns undefined if I trace UIComponent.getStyleDefinition

Is this a Flash only feature or is it also in Flex? Am I missing
something?

Is there any other way of getting a list of supported styles for a
component class?

many thanks,

Jules

Currently there is a player bug where it prevents 'streaming' which may effect
