Re: [flexcoders] Module to fill up space

I would try:


http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009";
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo">




And if that doesn’t work, add:

xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
percentWidth=”100”

Re: [flexcoders] How to monkey patch using multiple libraries?

[Alex Harui]

It is bad practice to be adding new APIs when monkey-patching.  You should be 
subclassing instead.

However, all that should matter is the compile time stamp in the SWC.  Newest 
one wins.  Make sure the SWCs are listed in the correct order just to be safe 
in your project properties.  I’m not sure if code hints go lookin for the time 
stamps.

Re: [flexcoders] DataGrids with large datasets Tips & Tricks?

[Alex Harui]

It doesn’t matter if you add columns at run-time or not.  The main factor is 
how many column you are displaying and how many rows will be displayed.  And 
note that is different from the total set of columns that could be displayed 
and total number of data items:

Example:  I have a 1 person database with 100 different statistics on each 
person.  I set up my DataGrid to have 100 columns representing each statistic, 
but because it won’t fit on the screen I set horizontalScrollPolicy=”true”.  
Still, the DG is likely to be full screen so it can show about 20 columns and 
30 rows.

Note that if do not set horizontalScrollPolicy=”true”, the DG will cram all 100 
columns on screen.  This makes a significant difference.  Instead of 20x30=600 
renderers, it is 100x30=3000 renderers.  The DG will take more than 5 times 
longer to set up and render 3000 renderers instead of 600 renderers, memory 
usage will go way up, and even things like mouse tracking and CPU utilization 
at idle time will be impacted.

The next important thing to remember is that DG has a very generalized update 
mechanism.  If it detects a change to any of the 1 person records, it will 
refresh “all” of the renderers on the screen.  It does not optimize for whether 
that renderer is associated with that data item because labelFunctions and 
custom renderers make it possible for any data item change to affect every 
renderer.  This is very inefficient, but we have to be this conservative 
otherwise your renderers could miss updates.

This is important in how you setup and maintain your dataProvider.  A common 
mistake I see is to take some XML, make a new ArrayCollection, and loop through 
the XML creating Person records and using push/addItem to add it to the 
ArrayCollection.  Every time you do that, the AC generates a change event, and 
if the DG is already bound, it is going to try to refresh all of its renderers.

So, aggregate changes.  If you are converting XML, make an array, convert items 
and push them on the array and then set the whole array into the 
ArrayCollection’s source.

I'm having issues running Flash Builder 4 after a successful install.
I keep getting the License agreement dialog which keeps reappearing

[Oleg Sivokon]

BadVersion usually means there's junk in the response, this would be caused
by warnings or error messages being output into the same stream as the
response body. The literal meaning of this message is that the Flash AMF
parser could not understand what's been sent to it.
Check for any code that may cause errors or warnings on the server side. I
use Charles Proxy for watching the AMF communication - it is not a free
program, but it has an evaluation version, that doesn't expire, but keeps
annoying you with "buy me" sort of messages. Actually, I think it's worth
the money, but, that's up to you.

[flexcoders] Duplicate Subscription error (Flex,CF9 with embedded BlazeDS)

[wlbagent]

Very simple Flex (FB3) application which subscribes to a ColdFusion 9
DataServicesMessaging Event Gateway using the CF9 "embedded" BlazeDS.

Issue: When the Flex application starts, the mx:Consumer component
returns the following faultSting "Duplicate subscription. Another client
has already subscribed with the clientId,
'803B65B1-312C-989A-F55A-4C3973AAEDD6'."

If I reload the page in the browser the error does  not occur and the
application works as expected.

I have a ColdFusion page that sends a message to the CF Event Gateway. 
The gateway is working because the "out" count increases each time I
send a message and, once I reload the Flex page, the messages from the
CF page show up on the Flex page.

Here is the code for the cfm page that sends a message to the CF
gateway:



 
 
 
 
 
 Message sent.
 
 Message failed.

Here is the Flex application code:

My messaging-config.xml file is the original one that was installed with

[flexcoders] Re: Regarding CollapsiblePanel's minimize and restore Events

[valdhor]

Which CollapsiblePanel  are you using? (Note: CollapsiblePanel is not a 
built-in Flex component).

If you are using the one from http://hasseg.org/blog/?p=113, you can check if 
the CollapsiblePanel is open or not to figure out if it's a open or close event.

[flexcoders] Re: Euros/Dollars conversion tools

[valdhor]

Try http://www.xe.com/dfs/product.php.

You can get an XML feed at whatever frequency you desire.

Also, a lot of countries produce their own conversion tables on their 
government web sites (I know they do in Australia and New Zealand). These are 
usually Excel spreadsheets that you can download. You may like to see if you 
can get that and pick apart the data you need.

[flexcoders] Re: FileReference.load() not found -- help please?

[valdhor]

I get...

Property http://www.adobe.com/2008/actionscript/Flash10/::save not found on 
flash.net.FileReference and there is no default value.
at 
LiveCycle/onSaveText()[C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\LiveCycle\src\LiveCycle.mxml:15]
at 
LiveCycle/___LiveCycle_Button1_click()[C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\LiveCycle\src\LiveCycle.mxml:41]

using Flash Player 10 WIN 10,0,45,2 Debug.

It looks like you are not calling the save method but are accessing save as a 
property of the FileReference class. I would check how you are trying to call 
this method. Also, is the data parameter non null?

Re: [flexcoders] Make a Timer's first timeout event immediate

[Oleg Sivokon]

In the same stack frame? If so, then just call the handler directly.
Otherwise it's not possible. Besides other things Timer isn't precise enough
for such short intervals, it will depend very much on rendering and the code
in the same frame. At 10 ms you can get +- 50% precision error.

Re: [flexcoders] Email in TextInput

[Oleg Sivokon]

Validating e-mail address is quite a task... See this for what the
requirements are: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3696#section-4.3
There is the EmailValidator in the validators library provided with SDK, but
it is doing it wrong - don't use it. Best way is to write your own, so far
this is what I did.

Re: [flexcoders] Embedded an image list

[Oleg Sivokon]

This depends on the OS and / or the programming / scripting language you
know to operate it. I had written a tiny C# program to browse a given folder
for the files of a given type and generate an AS file with embeds, but, I'm
sure you can do the same with any language that can access to the file
system and process strings, even AIR can do that.

If you're interested in what I did - here it is:

public static void ProcessDirectory(string path)
{
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(path);
FileInfo[] files = di.GetFiles("*.png");
string filePath;
string resultFileName = di.Parent.FullName + @"\" +
nonAlphaNum.Replace(di.Name, "_") + ".mxml";
string resultFile = (string)templateStart.Clone();
foreach (FileInfo fi in files)
{
filePath = ((string)embed.Clone()).Replace("%path%",
fi.FullName);
resultFile += filePath;
}
resultFile += templateEnd;
XmlTextWriter textWriter = new XmlTextWriter(resultFileName,
Encoding.UTF8);
textWriter.WriteRaw(resultFile);
textWriter.Close();
}

{
//DirectoryInfo[] di = new DirectoryInfo[path.Length];

Re: [flexcoders] What are the Flex3/4 websites requirements after been FTP to the hosting server?

[Oleg Sivokon]

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. The idea is that it sets some rules
on how to transfers arbitrary file formats from one computer to another.
Flex3 website is a very broad definition, but, it's client would normally
consist of HTML + SWF + some JS files. There should be no problem using
those files with any FTP program.
Judging from your question it seems like something didn't work for you, if
I'm allowed to suggest: it is always better to tell the symptoms of the
problem, rather then ask generic questions.

Re: [flexcoders] Make a Timer's first timeout event immediate

[p_repetti]

Thanks.

A different solution occurred to me right after posting: if delay is not so
short (say > 5s) I explicitly call timeout() after starting the timer.
