[flexcoders] Native extension crashing
Hi, I'm working on a native extension for Windows. I have a functional hello world example and I'm using Wouter Verweirder's ANT script for building and starting the app (http://blog.aboutme.be/2011/09/12/air-native-extensions-hello-world-example-ant-script/). Now I wrote a C function in my extension interface that calls a C function from external dll. I have a C test that calls my external interface function and returns with success. However, when I call that function from AIR I get an error message: ArgumentError: Error #3500: The extension context does not have a method with the name doSomethingComplicated. I learned by now that error above appears every time when something breaks in underlying dll (when I remove the call from my C function to second dll, recompile it and run from AIR everything works fine). So I believe that there's something wrong between my ANE dll and the external dll I'm referencing. External dll is packed inside ANE together with my dll. Anyone had similar problem? Any hint appreciated. Tomislav
[flexcoders] Re: hSlider Thumb Skin positions incorrectly
Tom,
That's an excellent thought. I'm pretty new to spark skinning. I'll investigate
this... hopefully it will be a relatively simple adjustment.

It looks like you're in a mobile app but trying to base your skin off of the
desktop HSliderThumb skin. Have you looked at using the mobile theme's skin
as your starting point instead?

Hi All,
I'm trying to skin the thumb of an hSlider component. Problems:
1) the thumb is resized to be pixelated and grainy.
2) Its position is incorrect. Instead of the new button being cleanly
bisected by the track, it is just below the track, tangential to it. And
(presumably because its registration point is at upper left) when I slide
it all the way to the right, it goes off the end of the track until its
left edge is at the track's right edge. This also messes up calculations
for the hSlider.value property. Here's code for the entire test project:

[flexcoders] Air Controlling InDesign?
I know there's a few apps out there to control Photoshop and the like, but I'm wondering if anyone has any information as to how to go about it? Trying to find out from the client exactly 'how' they want to control InDesign; I'd imagine calling a native process on a script for it...?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: getting the total of values of an array collection that is updated manually
Looks ok to me. Is there some specific issue we should look at? The
expectation is that this is for a shopping cart and the number of items won’t
be very big. If you had 100,000 items, recomputing on every change could be
slow, and then you might try to get smarter by looking at the event’s
CollectionEventKind and making specific changes based on the kind. For
example, for an ADD event, all you need to do is add the new value to the old
sum, no need to loop over everything.

[flexcoders] Re: Native extension crashing
I made it working by putting the second dll in a folder that's part of windows system path. Also, after exporting release build and installing it, application didn't work until manually copying the dll into same folder as exe file. The fact that it already exists in \META-INF\AIR\extensions\... subtree didn't help much. It's far from perfect, but at least it works for development. Hope this info can help someone. Cheers, Tomislav

Try look at adobe creative suite extension builder. The bad thing it's not free, but it provides api (swc libraries) for interacting with creative suite Send from my ipod Michal Szczepanski
Re: [flexcoders] Re: getting the total of values of an array collection that is updated manually
Add a switch statement for event.kind, keep the last sum around, and modify it as appropriate. On 12/21/11 11:51 AM, ZIONIST stinas...@yahoo.com wrote: How do you do that? -- Alex Harui Flex SDK Team Adobe Systems, Inc. http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui
