Re: [flexcoders] Re: Using modules and remote objects
It depends. Folks who have a large application crunching a single source of data are more likely to put the data classes in the main app and just use the modules to late-load UI and business logic. Folks building portals probably should require 10.1 and use Marshall Plan configurations. It is technically possible to put the data classes in a “never-unload” module and load it into the main-app and load the UI and business logic in a separate module that will unload.

[flexcoders] Re: Question about using [RemoteClass(alias="...")]
Forgive me, I be a dingbat... By setting the "[RemoteClass(alias="...")]" line, the thing I got back from the server was not an ArrayCollection of generic Objects, but of strongly typed Review (AS) objects, which didn't need any casting. All solved now. Nothing to see here...

[flexcoders] Line Chart, I have a X value, how can I find the Y value?
I have a line chart with time on the bottom and a linear axis for Y. I have the user click on the graph and I get my X value, but I have to calculate the Y value since the user might click anywhere on the Y axis. Any ideas how I could do this? Thanks! -Nate
Re: [flexcoders] I don't know if I need Flex (please help me to decide)
You know that RemoteObject is built on top of NetConnection. What you ultimately do is make remote procedure calls. You don't need flex but then you need to do the work yourself. Serialization and de-serialization on the server side. On the other hand flex is open source so If you don't need something visual you just take the source code from flex compile it with your flash app and you should be good to go. I deed that with the base 64 encoder/decoders and except for a resource manager reference which I did not need after all it was ok. Depending on your needs you can take that source code and play with it. HTH in some way, C hink could be a lot some "problems": 1) the first download will be very slow 2) if my RSL is not cached for any reason then nobody will be visiting the site again 3) what happens if I need to protect some project? I've read an article about Nitro-LM with RSL's (I don't know if it's the best option, for the moment I have never protected any code...), but if our RSL is encrypted, will be cached then? 4) I don't know, is there any other problem with RSL's? what do you think? I was reading about using Flex without the Flex Framework, and I like that idea, but what happens if I need a component? just one? I need to include again +200KB of code? I was thinking in working purely in AS3 and reusing some classes from Flex without embedding all the framework (my first goal is to make a really light version). I want to use Flex because there are some classes and components that I don't have in Flash, and I need them, like RemoteObject. So, I need some of the Flex Classes but I need a very light SWF. Is possible to achieve that with Flex? Thanks! Enrique.
[flexcoders] Question about using [RemoteClass(alias="...")]
I have an ActionScript class that creates a custom Review object, like so: / Review.as / Taken from one of Adobe's online samples package samples.restaurant { import mx.formatters.DateFormatter; // [RemoteClass(alias="samples.restaurant.Review")] [Bindable] public class Review { public function Review(source:Object=null) { // some date formatting stuff happens here } public var restaurantId:int; public var restaurantName:String; public var restaurant:Object; public var reviewDate:Date; public var reviewer:String; public var rating:Number; public var title:String; public var reviewText:String; public var email:String; } } This class lets me take an ArrayCollection of generic Objects from the server, loop through it with something like "new Review(source[i])" and get a bunch of Review objects in an ArrayCollection. Works perfectly. I also need to be able to write a Review object (a Java object) to the server, so I add "[RemoteClass(alias="samples.restaurant.Review")]" above the ActionScript class declaration. This way I can declare a "public var review:Review", call an "addReview(review)" on my RemoteObject service, and my server receives a Review Java object. This works perfectly too. The problem is that once I add this "[RemoteClass(alias="...")]" line, doing "new Review(source[i])" no longer works as expected. Given the same ArrayCollection of generic Objects as before, "new Review(source[i])" will still create a Review object, but now all its properties are null. If I comment out the "[RemoteClass(alias="...")]" line I can properly cast generic objects to Review objects again (but then I am no longer able to send a Review Java object to the server). Is this the way it's supposed to work? (I hope I've stated my problem clearly.) How can I accomplish both tasks using a single Review.as class? Thanks for any help, folks. John PS. I am using the Flex 3.5 SDK.
[flexcoders] I don't know if I need Flex (please help me to decide)
Hi! I will try to explain my situation: I'm a Flash developer (not a good one, just one more...), I know AS3, OOP, I can read MXML and I've read a lot about Flex in the last days, although I have never used it. And there's a reason for that, the SWF size, I'm from Argentina, and here internet is really slow in many places (mine is 128kbps for example, so to load a SWF of just 150KB I need to wait approx. 10 seconds) I was reading about RSL's to solve that, and it looks good, but I think could be a lot some "problems": 1) the first download will be very slow 2) if my RSL is not cached for any reason then nobody will be visiting the site again 3) what happens if I need to protect some project? I've read an article about Nitro-LM with RSL's (I don't know if it's the best option, for the moment I have never protected any code...), but if our RSL is encrypted, will be cached then? 4) I don't know, is there any other problem with RSL's? what do you think?
