Is there any RSL setting for this app?
if yes what is it?

 Hi guys i recently developed a website flex for a client and was asked to
 make it editable. so i developed a content management system in flex so that
 my client could be able to edit the content on the site. i uploaded the main
 site onto a shared server of my hosting company in the wwwroot folder and i
 created another folder within the wwwroot folder called admin where i put
 the administrative site. here is the problem, the main site can be accessed
 using this url http://www.afriquesuites.com and when i try accessing the
 admin site i use
 http://www.afriquesuites.com/admin/afriquesuitesAdmin.html which does not
 load the page. My question is how to access the admin site.

[flexcoders] Re: separate flex apps in same webroot folder

am not sure i understand your question... all i did is develop the two apps 
separately and deployed the release build version of the site to the wwwroot 
folder on the host server and the release build version of the admin site to 
the admin folder in the wwwroot folder.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: separate flex apps in same webroot folder

As I have seen your swf it is not loading completely and its size is less
than 200 kb,
so it must be loading framework as RSL.
Also it might load if you out it in same folder ,if it is so,then problem is
that the framework setting is wrong,

try putting framework_.xx in admin folder and try again.

[flexcoders] Re: separate flex apps in same webroot folder

i already have framework_.xx in the admin folder.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: separate flex apps in same webroot folder

ok
As i have seen your main site i saw firebug that it is loading framework swf
of 500+ kb.

So i thought it is might not loading the same for admin.
Also is it working if putted in main folder?

[flexcoders] Proper way to ensure components in a different state are created

When I try to access components that are in a different state on the
line after I set the current state I get this error,
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null
object reference.

// code
currentState = NOTES;
noteComponent.text = value; // noteComponent exists in NOTES state and
is not created yet

I know this is because of the Flex invalidation cycle and I'm aware I
could use databinding and I know I could use callLater. But if I
needed to create the components immediately for only the state I'm
going to how would I do that?

Custom Component:
Group

states
State 1
State 2
State 3
/states

imageComponent includeIn=State 1/
videoComponent includeIn=State 2/
noteComponent includeIn=State 3/

/Group

RE: [flexcoders] Proper way to ensure components in a different state are created

2010-09-01 Thread flex

If you use includeIn or excludeFrom, then itemCreationPolicy becomes
available and you can set it to immediate - 

 

imageComponent includeIn=State 1 itemCreationPolicy=immediate
id=imcomp /

 

Then in code you could in imcomp.currentState = myDesiredState, even
before State 1 has been used.

 

Hope this helps,

Derek

You won't have any problem accessing the data. It's actually a bit

[flexcoders] * Security Sandbox Violation *

2010-09-01 Thread Yu, Deyang

I am building a Flex portal. Which has main application and several 
sub-applications.

I am using sandboxed application.

I do have crossdomain.xml defined in both main application and sub applications.

And in the main application, I used the swfloader like :
mx:SWFLoader id=couponApp width=100% height=100% 
loadForCompatibility=true trustContent=false complete=allowLoading() /

But when I tried to loading the sub application, it always give Security 
Sandbox Violation error.

The error is

*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
SecurityDomain 'http://localhost:8080/isw/Applications.html?debug=true' tried 
to access incompatible context 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/coupon/Coupon.swf'


Anybody has any idea and suggestion? Where did I go wrong?

The reason for this would be in a datagrid for instance displaying a

set your renderer to an IFactory. this is a pretty standard way of doing

Have you tried debugging from both sides? Use a JS debugger or stick a

Are you using a new Flex 4 template that now uses SWFObject instead of

Yes, I've tried debugging on the JS side of things, exactly as you mentioned
(See my email in this thread from Thu, Aug 26, 2010 at 12:45 PM). Nothing.
I simply can't find the object. I used a javascript object dump function,
to 'scan' the objects I could think of, looking for an occurrence of this
object that we need for FABridge to work, but its tucked away somewhere, in
a place which is non-trivial to locate.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: FABridge Problem - Please help!

So from my perspective, you aren’t being specific enough.  You are saying that 
parent.FABridge doesn’t exist, the OP said something else.  There are two DOMs, 
the JS DOM and the AS DOM.  You are now saying you can’t find the object, but 
you aren’t saying which object.

If parent.FABridge is null, then it sounds like a JS setup issue.  Either 
FABridge.js isn’t being loaded or isn’t loaded in the right place.  You might 
try your own test js file to see if you can find objects from your test file.

I don’t have time to try it right now.  In Flex 4, the tag goes inside the

ExternalInterface so it shouldn’t be sensitive to changes between Flex 3 and 4.

Have you tried debugging from both sides?  Use a JS debugger or stick a bunch 
of alerts in the JS code and see what sub-expressions are null (parent, 
parent.FABridge, parent.FABridge.foo, etc).  Then put breakpoints on the AS 
side like FABridge.as.getRoot().

Are you using a new Flex 4 template that now uses SWFObject instead of 
AC_OETags.js?  It shouldn’t make a difference unless you’re simply not 
including the right JS in the template.

Hi,

Was this problem resolved?  I have Flex 3 MXML that defines:

/mx:Application

In Flex 4, must this statement now appear inside an fx:Declarations element?  
Even if there's no other fx namespace elements being used in the MXML?

On the JavaScript side, I've been referencing the bridge as:

FABridge.foo.root()

which works fine in Flex 3 but doesn't resolve the bridge in Flex 4. How is the 
bridge referenced?

If you get that output but the application does not halt, then you can ignore 
it.

If you want it to be sandboxed, then you can’t access things in it.  You would 
not need a crossdomain.xml file.

If you are using Flex 4, make sure you added the option

 It is generallyl more efficient to make doSomething a member method on the

 When you originally posted I thought you were saying that an activation

 A typical example of what I'm doing would be something like:

  dialog.addEventListener(ok, function doSomething(e:DialogEvent):void

 I'm using the nested function because I need some way to get the x,y,z values

  Thanks Alex.  I don't have any simple test case indicating that they leak,

  So when tracking memory leaks with the FB4 profiler you're saying one 
  can/should simply ignore any object reference paths that start with 
  activation objects?  (If so, it would be nice if they weren't reported--but 
  that's a separate issue.)  Can you tell me what it means when the profiler

  executing at the time the memory snapshot was taken?  If I understood why 
  I'm getting all these references from activation objects I'd feel a bit 
  more comfortable about ignoring them. :-)
 
  My application makes use of anonymous functions in places and I read an old 
  Adobe Developer Connection article that says:
 
  Defining functions on the fly causes an arcane memory leak in Flash Player 
  because the activation object sent to the function can never be recovered 
  by the garbage collector. So the bottom line is to avoid dynamic classes 
  and explicitly define all the properties and functions used in your 
  classes.
 
  It doesn't elaborate and was written in 2006 so it may be irrelevant but

Alex,

Thanks. In my local tomcat server, the application does not halt. But once I 
deployed it to Websphere in Solaris, the sub application cannot be loaded.

All main application and sub applications are in the same domain, but with 
different context root. Server.com ip is 152.60.xxx.xxx

Server.com/main/mainApp.swf
Server.com/sub1/subApp1.swf
Server.com/sub2/subApp2.swf

User  login from Server.com/main/mainApp, it will load subApp1.swf by using  
URL with ip   152.60.xxx.xxx/sub1/subApp1.swf

Then this sub application cannot be loaded.  But if user login from  
152.60.xxx.xxx/main/mainApp.swf, then try to loading 
152.60.xxx.xxx/sub1/subApp1.swf, then the sub app can be loaded.

 Hi

 I was wondering if anyone had any luck with the following senario
 in
   flex.

 I'd like to be able to have a custom item renderer which delegates
 to
 another renderer inside.

 The reason for this would be in a datagrid for instance displaying
 a
 checkbox if the dataprovider for the row had a boolean value.
 Using the
 default item renderer when the value was a non boolean.

 Basically I was hoping to use a proxy object (though not
 necessarily
   the
 proxy class) so that I could a renderer which delegated all of its
 responsibilties to a sub renderer.

 Hard to explain.

 I think the following gives a clearer idea of what I had in mind.

[flexcoders] Working with null data in a Tree

2010-09-01 Thread mbkairyt

I have a tree component that has 40 numbers in an array collection. The
36th index is null. (idx 0-35 are numbers, 36 is null, 37-39 are
numbers.) The values are equal to the index+1, so index 1=2, and index
35=36.

As soon as I hit the null value at idx 36, all values afterward are
shown as blank. Then if I scroll back up the list, all the previous
values are null too! So as soon as the null value is loaded into the
tree renderers, all previous and future data is nullified.

I have tried hiding the null data by implementing a custom data
descriptor, as well as extending the tree class itself to override the
isVisible and isEnabled methods, but nothing is having any effect.

How can I hide these null values, or at least protect the data around
the null values?

  cheers, ethan
  
   Ok, I was wrong. Setting the borderStyle and borderThickness on the
   combo box does not do anything. Instead, I set a custom skin on the
   combobox and it works.
   
   border-style: solid;
   border-color: #00ff00;
   border-thickness: 5;
   down-skin: ClassReference('ComboBoxSkin');
   over-skin: ClassReference('ComboBoxSkin');
   up-skin: ClassReference('ComboBoxSkin');
   
   In the ComboBoxSkin, get the borderThickness and borderColor style
   properties and draw the borders for all the states.

Flex examines the scale9Grid property to determine the value of the

Re: [flexcoders] Proper way to ensure components in a different state are created

2010-09-01 Thread Haykel BEN JEMIA

You could add a bindable var, e.g. noteText, and set the text property in
the mxml tag to {noteText}. Then you only have to assign the value to the
noteText variable.

Sounds like there might be an issue with the renderer.  What does your index 
handling code look like?

[flexcoders] Image component not resizing correctly

2010-09-01 Thread method_air

Currently experiencing an Image component resizing issue:

An Image component (inside an ItemRenderer/Spark List, with a fixed 
width/height of '100') resizes incorrectly when it's source changes. 

The Image components source is initially set to an embedded placeholder graphic 
(while the new source loads), and the Image width/height is correct.

However when the new source loads, the Image component does not resize to the 
Image width/height set dimensions, and the background of the item renderer is 
visible.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,

Philip

Re: [flexcoders] Image component not resizing correctly

mx:Image width=”100” height=”100”  isn’t sizing at 100x100?

What does the renderer look like?

User  login from Server.com/main/mainApp, it will load subApp1.swf by using

Any idea any where I should look into?

If you get that output but the application does not halt, then you can ignore 
it.

If you want it to be sandboxed, then you can't access things in it.  You would 
not need a crossdomain.xml file.

If you are using Flex 4, make sure you added the option 
-includes=mx.managers.systemClasses.MarshallingSupport

Re: [flexcoders] Proper way to ensure components in a different state are created

Arggh I forgot I have to set certain components visible,

currentState = note;
source = note.text; // databinding
note.visible = true;
border.visible = true;
border.y = note.y;
border.width = note.width;

I think this is impossible in Flex 4. I'm think my only option is to set
every component creation policy to immediate.
