Hi Allen,

Along with useHandCursor, buttonMode property also needs to be set to 
true to show the hand cursor.

It is property available on Sprite hence available with all UI 
components in Flex.

[flexcoders] Cursor change problem

2005-11-25 Thread Allen Manning










Hello,

 

I saw the below post on Flexcoders, but didn’t see
an answer.  Anyone know how to use the hand cursor?

 

Is there a reference to the hand cursor to use in
setCursor - ‘hand’ or something like that?  I couldn’t find
it in the docs.

 

Best,

Allen

 Probably an easy question for those who know... I'm trying to change the default cursor to a hand cursor when hoveringover a component. The component is based on the VBox.  I want to use the Flexs hand-cursor icon, which appears withinMovieClips components e.g.  Buttons when "useHandCursor" property isset, and not have to create my own icon.  Can't find this in the docs. Is there something like "setHandCursor()" and "removeHandCursor()"within flex? setCursor(cursorSymbol:String, priorityLevel:Number, xOffset:Number,yOffset:Number) All help is appreciated.

Does this mean you want to disable the component?  If so, you may just want
to set the 'enabled' property from UIComponent.

A cell renderer for an object path is reusable, whereas with using a 
label function you have to create a new function for each path.  It may 
be over the top for this particular case, but it's a "once and done" thing.

Example:





All 3 of the above columns can use a single "label with a path" cell 
renderer, as opposed to having to create 3 different label functions to 
return the different paths individually.  In a small project this 
probably isn't a big deal (maintaining a long list of label functions), 
but in a large project it could get cumbersome quickly.

I agree that labelFunction is easier to create, but easiest isn't always 
best.  :-)

Do you have a test case to reproduce this bug?  At least we can make

_All_ of the inner viewstack's children?  Or just the ones that
haven't been created?  You have to wait until they are created, and
the "childrenCreated" event will tell you when.

You need to create a custom cell renderer.  The default cell renderer 
only allows you to go "1 deep" into an object, so you have to createa 
cell renderer that can understand column names that use a path to get 
deeper into a object.

Heres some partial code to give you an idea.. the entire cell renderer 
will be found in Flex By Example with sample usage.  This code would go 
inside a "PathCellRenderer.as" file that creates a Label component to 
render text.

private function setValue( str:String, item:Object, selection:String
):Void
{
if ( item == undefined ) {
label.visible = false;
return;
}

label.visible = true;

// Split up the complex path into pieces
var path = getDataLabel().split(".");
// "dot down" to the item to display
var toDisplay = item[ path[0] ];
for ( var i:Number = 1; i < path.length; i++ ) {
toDisplay = toDisplay[ path[i] ];
}

label.text = toDisplay;
}


Flex by example will ship on October 24th, I believe.  :-)

RE: [flexcoders] Why you shouldn't set creationPolicy="all" to solve your deferred instantiation problems

2005-10-14 Thread Allen Manning










Gordon,

 

The reason why I normally set creation
policy to all is to work around flex bugs.  Two of them this week:

 


 Repeater
 in a VBox in a view stack.  Layout gets messed up on auto, but seems to
 draw a bit more properly with an all.
 ViewStack
 in a ViewStack, the outer view stack can’t see all of the inner view stack’s
 children.


 

Sure, I want things to run fast, but
when strange rendering bugs and undefined elements get in the way of getting
something done, setting creation policy to all is a common work around.

 

Best,

allen

when the accordian is created.

 

In my post two days ago I
tried to explain why setting creationPolicy="all" is not The Right
Way to solve problems caused by deferred instantiation. I'll try to work with
our doc folks to do a better job of explaining the right technique in the
future. In the meantime, here's a repeat of what I wrote then.

 

- Gordon

 

I'd like to
suggest that it's better to learn how to make deferred

instantiation
your friend than to simply turn it off.

 

The point of
deferred instantiation is to not waste time at app startup

creating controls
that you don't need yet. If you had a ViewStack with

500 views, it
probably wouldn't be a good idea to create the controls on

all 500 of them
at startup, when only one view is initially visible. The

only good reason
to set creationPolicy="all", and therefore increase

startup time, is
to decrease the small navigation delays when you switch

from view to
view.

 

If these delays
are acceptable, then you should allow the views to do

deferred creation
of their controls, as they were designed to do.

 

So how do you set
the initial state of controls that undergo deferred

instantiation?
You use the appropriate events to set their state AFTER

they have been
created. For example, you could use 'initialize' or

'creationComplete'
events on the the controls themselves. Or you could

use events like
'childrenCreated' or 'childrenCreationComplete' on the

view that you
navigated to.

 

Once you realize
that every control in the app doesn't get created at

startup, it's
always possible -- and not difficult -- to design your app

so that you don't
push information prematurely into controls that don't

exist yet.
Instead, it's typical to store information into a "data

model" of
some kind that is independent of the controls that display

that information.
When the controls get created, they pull the

information in
from the data model.

RE: [flexcoders] Problem setting combobox selectedIndex

2005-10-12 Thread Allen Manning
Andrew,

If you databind a function to the selectedIndex property of your combobox,
then as the data loads into your combo the function can return the correct
value.  Make sure you pass in as a param of this function the dataprovider
of the combo so the function fires as data comes in.

HTH,

Subject: [flexcoders] Problem setting combobox selectedIndex

I have a tab navigator, with 2 tabs, each with a canvas. Each tab has
its own combo box with its own list of locations. When certain values
are entered else where on the screen, I want to automatically change
the selected item in each combo box.

I have this working as I want for the combo box in the 1st tab which
is visible, but it does not display the correct value for the combo
box on the second tab, which is not visible.

How can I get the non-visible combo box to have the correct selected
item. My logic seems to fail because initially the 2nd combo box is
not visible. Once it has been made visible my logic works regardless
of wheter it is currently visible or not.

[flexcoders] FlexUnit Test Runner inside of a flex application

2005-10-11 Thread Allen Manning










Hello Flexcoders,

 

Has anyone been able to get the FlexUnit test runner working
along-side a flex application?  Basically I would like to run tests against a
loaded application.

 

I tried putting the test runner into a TitleWindow and
then open the title window via a pop-up.  When the pop-up opens, Flash crashes. 
I put it in the root and all runs fine.

 





   
xmlns:flexunit="http://www.iterationtwo.com/flexunit"

    xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml">

   

    { tests.AllTests.suite.()
}

    

 



 

I don’t want the runner to act as a stand-alone
application I want it to perform tests against my existing application.  For
example

 

//automate some work being done in my UI, then check

assertTrue(
mx.core.Application.application.navigationBar.selectedIndex == 4 );

 

 

Thanks for any help,

allen

Are you using the FilteredDataProvider class that I had written? 
Sorry I've been so bad at supporting this.  People have reported
problems with DataGrid selection when a FilteredDataprovider is used. 
I don't have time to look into it right away, but here's a hint: you
might want to look into the DataProvider class (which
FilteredDataProvider extends).  Last time I fixed a problem by
overriding the getItemID method from the API, so see if that works for
you.

Alfie,

You need to talk to the server for that.  I would look in the docs under
Remote Object.

[flexcoders] Datagrid bug, two rows selected at the same time.

2005-10-10 Thread Allen Manning










Hello Flexcoders,

 

If I could only give you a simple snippet which could
reproduce this Mandelbug, it certainly would make my life easier.  But
alas, I can only give you a textual explanation with the hope that someone can
help shed some light on this.

 

Basically I have a datagrid in which I would like to have
the first item selected after the data loads.  I achieve this by
databinding a function on the selectedIndex property like this:

 



…

selectedIndex=" { helper.getSelectedIndexInDatagrid( mFilterProvider.filteredData
) }"

 

/>

 

‘filteredData’ is a property of my filtering
data provider.  I databind to that so that the function gets called as the
data comes in from the server side, or when client – side filtering
happens.

 

getSelectedIndexInDatagrid is a rather straightforward
function.  It returns 0, and also sets a selectedItem property in the main
view so that a details panel can render the data of the 0th item.

 

It looks something like this:

 

/**

   * Return back an item to the datagrid during databinding.

   * 

   */

  public function
getSelectedIndexInDatagrid(filteredData):Number

  {

    

    view.selectedItem
 = filteredData.dataProvider.getItemAt( 0 );

    return 0;

  

  }

 

 

This works, mostly…

 

The data loads, the first item is selected and the
selecteItem property of the view gets populated.  If I try to select
another row in the datagrid, the 0th selected row stays
selected.  Two rows highlighted at the same time.  Note: the
mutlipleSelect property is not set to true.  I move my mouse over the 0th
row and the selection disappears and all acts like normal.

 

I need to solve this bug, and have tried numerous workarounds
to no avail.  Any suggestions will be warmly received.

 

Best,

al

Thanks for all the help. =) It turns out this solution

shown 4/5 of the way down this page
(http://www.jessewarden.com/archives/flex/) is exactly what I needed,

Hi Allen,





 





I usualy
do what you say on my cell renders. What I usualy do is dispatch the event tru
your list controll, in your case the dataGrid. Remember on the cell render you
have a reference of the list which is the variable listOwner. So you could do
this
listOwner.dispatchEvent({type:"MyEvent",data:"MyData"});
Hope it helps!

Ok Situation I’m having at the moment is the show event on a
form is being called when I don’t believe it should be.

 

I’ve a tabnav containing 8 sections, one of those sections I
need to be able to jump to from other sections so the children of this is being
created using createChildren().

For some reason however without actually clicking on the tab
to view this form the show is still getting called.

 

Am I missing something ?

- I have a Main.mxml and a MainViewHelper.as
- Upon clicking one of many " Search" buttons in
Main.mxml, the MainViewHelper.as calls the EventBroadcaster and
invokes an OpenSearchWindowCommand.as
- The OpenSearchWindowCommand.as decides what kind of search is being
performed, and makes the following call (code in <> is dependent upon
which search window is being opened):

ModelLocator.Window =
mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(_root, , true,
{deferred: true});
ModelLocator.Window.centerPopUp();

- Now, within the pop-up window, the user performs a search, and the
search results populate a DataGrid in the pop-up window ("")
- The user will now select one row in the DataGrid as the item of
choice, whose information will be stored in the ModelLocator so that
it can be displayed on the main screen (Main.mxml)

*** This was working fine when I had item selection implemented such
that the user would simply click on a row and then click a "Select
Item" button. I would have ViewHelper.as's selectItem()
function call its closePopUp() function [which consists solely of the
line "view.deletePopUp();" (view referring to .mxml)]
after storing the object representing the selected item in the
ModelLocator. ***

- However, now I need to implement item selection via double-click and
the Enter key. This is where my problems start... bear with me-- I'm
going to cover all the cases I've tested...

1) When I leave all the code as it is and select an item via the Enter
key, all is well. The pop-up window closes, and the main window is
populated with the selected item's details.
2) When I leave all the code as it is and select an item via a
double-click, things go awry. The pop-up window closes, but none of
the selected item's information is shown on the main screen. Also,
once you are back to the main screen, the app will only let you click
one search button once more, and then everything on the screen is
unavailable, and you have to hit Refresh to start all over.
3) I decided to try the "doLater" function within
ViewHelper.as's closePopUp() function. I tried various
permutations of the line of code below, and all of them had the same
result (whether selection was performed via double-click or Enter
key): the pop-up window would not close, but I could see that the main
window beneath the pop-up was populated with the selected item's
information.

Here's the line I've been messing with to no avail:
view.doLater(this, "deletePopUp()");
I've also tried:
view.doLater(_root, "deletePopUp()");
view.doLater(_parent, "deletePopUp()");
view.doLater(view, "deletePopUp()");
_root.doLater(this, "deletePopUp()");
_root.doLater(view, "deletePopUp()");
_root.doLater(_root, "deletePopUp()");
_root.doLater(_parent, "deletePopUp()");
_parent.doLater(this, "deletePopUp()");
_parent.doLater(view, "deletePopUp()");
_parent.doLater(_root, "deletePopUp()");
_parent.doLater(_parent, "deletePopUp()");

Also, in case it helps at all, I am checking for double-clicks and
Enter key presses in the following way:

//---

public static function wasEnterKeyPressed(keyPressed):Boolean {
if(keyPressed.code == 13){
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}

//---

private static var timestamp:Date;
public static function wasMouseButtonDoubleClicked(event):Boolean {
var now = new Date();
if((now.getTime() - timestamp.getTime()) < 375){

return true;
} else {
timestamp = new Date();
return false;
}
}

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! =)

RE: [flexcoders] Cairngorm woes =\

2005-08-22 Thread Allen Manning
A left tab nav singleton?  

Maybe there are some Singleton UI management classes which are used to build
the UI dynamically rather than using good 'ole MXML.  

I would love to see the arguments as to why that is a good way to go...

Maybe they are dynamically building the UIs from some other XML.  :-?

I wonder how easy it is to layout views using this approach.

Hi Nate,

It looks like your missing the LeftTabNavigator class from your app.

So, yes, you are probably missing some code from the user classes
directory or from your app directory.

See where the class LeftTabNavigator.as exists on the app that works
then replicate on the app that doesn't work.

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to return multiple recordsets to Flex from one Remote Object call

2005-08-19 Thread Allen Manning










Steven,

 

I think you are right.  My point was
more about breaking them into VOs first, rather then piping the whole query
back direct.

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Is it

I'd take a very different view on this; if
you have a business need to pass back a collection of data, that collection of
data must have some "semantic" business meaning.  Perhaps it is
"initialisation data" or "customer overview" or
"customer portfolio" or "dashboard summary" or something
similar.  

 

A "dashboard summary" might be a
list of recent orders, a list of sales by territory and a summary of invoices
owed.

 

So ... I'd create a business object -
let's call it DashboardSummaryVO - and that would contain an array of OrderVO
(recent orders), an array of TerritorySalesVO (sales by territory - probably a
business object that by composition contains a further array of SalesVO
objects) and an array of InvoiceVOs (for oustanding invoices).

 

I'd then return that DashboardSummaryVO
from my service, which encapsulates in business/object terms, the data that is
being returned to the client.  Furthermore, the code that picks apart the
DashboardSummaryVO and updates your model/whatever will have infinitely more
clarity for this object model.

 

Flex is the technology, but Object
Oriented design is the paradigm (I hate people that use that word too), so be
mindful of creating a well-defined object model.

 

Make sense ?

 

Steven

Darius,

 

I don’t know, passing back an uber array
feels a bit monolithic (but maybe good for performance?).  Why not break
them down into different Array’s of Value Objects.

 

For example:

 

EmployeeListVO – array of Employee VOs

InvoiceListVO – array of Invoice VOs

FooListVO – array of Foo VOs

 

Now you have the fine grained control of
just asking for one or all of them.  And you can do what you want with
each.  We represent our VOs as CFCs.  This allows you to type the
package path in the returnType attribute of your CFCs.  Queries and
Structures are not typed, you could get anything back and ColdFusion won’t
report any problems.  How do you check for a well formed Struct or a well
formed Query?  You might also want to look at the advantages of automatic
object conversion into ActionScript.  You could have a 1:1 mapping between
FooVO.cfc and FooVO.as.

 

Hope that helps,

Allen

[flexcoders] Testing Flex Applications

2005-08-16 Thread Allen Manning










Hello Flex Coders,

 

I’m using FlexUnit to do unit testing of my Flex
applications.  

 

The QA team that I’m working with would like to use
a screen-reader style tool to check the state of the Flash application and set
it up in regressions.  Do any tools exist that do this type of regression
testing.  

 

If so, has anyone used them?

 

Many thanks for any help or ideas,

Allen

Subject: [flexcoders] Dinamically
adding itens to a grid



 

Hi
all ! 

I'm
new at the list and a new flex coder. 

I'm
trying to add GridRows to a Grid using the following code: 

   
   
    function
addFilterCondition(){ 
   
   
   
    var fieldName = new ComboBox();

   
       
    var operation = new TextInput();

   
   
   
    var condition = new TextInput();

   
   
   
    var addButton = new Button();

   
   
   
    var removeButton = new Button();

       
   
    var row = new GridRow();

   
   
   
    
   
   
   
    row.createChild(mx.controls.ComboBox,"","");

   
   
   
    row.createChild(mx.controls.TextInput,"","");

   
       
    row.createChild(mx.controls.TextInput,"","");

   
   
   
    row.createChild(mx.controls.Button,"","");

   
   
   
    row.createChild(mx.controls.Button,"","");

   
   
   
    
       
   
    grid.createChild(row);

   
   
   
    grid.layoutChildren();

   
   
    } 

I
called the function above from a "click" event of a button, but no
GridRow has 
been
add to the Grid. Did I miss something ? Is my code right ? 

Thanks
in advance ! 
Michel.

Subject: [flexcoders] Caret
positioning problem



 

Hi,

I’m trying to set the caret to the end of the
textfield. I have a keyUp event handler that adds the dot “.”
automatically for the text entered. The problem is that when the dot is added
by actionscript the caret stays behind the added dot while typing, so the dot
gets misplaced and the typing comes out wrong. How can I position the caret
AFTER the autoinserted dot? I’ve tried to fool around with the Selection
class functions but none of it seems to help….

 

Here is an example of the handler I’d like to
use:

 

function onKeyUp( event )

   
{

   
if( MyTextField.text.length == 2 )

   
{  


   
MyTextField.text = MyTextField.text + ".";

   
// HOW TO POSITION THE CARET HERE SO THAT IT COMES OUT LIKE THIS ON TEXTFIELD:
“myenteredtext.CARET_BLINKING_HERE???

   
}

   
}

[flexcoders] Filtering Dataprovider with Large Datasets

2005-08-10 Thread Allen Manning










Hello Flex Coders,

 

I want to be able to expand the Type-ahead filtering concept
of a filtering custom dataprovider to a dataset of about 5,000 items.

 

I’m in the early stages of planning this and am
thinking of a combination of an Implicit Paging Dataprovider (aka Matt Chotin’s
large datasets blog) and a text filtering dataprovider.

 

This is how I’m thinking of tackling the problem: talk
to the server in the beginning of the filter, and then switch to client side
filtering when the filtered dataset is down to one page.

 

Has anyone tried this before?  Any suggestions before
I go down this path?  Is Flex2 DG going to help me accomplish this any
easier?

 

Thanks for any ideas or comments,

Allen

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Fastest Hardware for Flex compilation

2005-08-08 Thread Allen Manning
> Or can I compile once and save the swf to be distributed
to the clients?

James,

To the best of my knowledge, once the SWF is compiled it is just delivered
to clients directly without needing to recompile every time.

As for distribution, Macromedia is the best to answer that.  Every time I
compile with mxmlc it says my SWF will time out after one day because I'm
using the developer addition locally.  

I would assume for production the swf can be used legally on one, and only
one, dual processor box per Flex license.

HTH,

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Re: Fastest Hardware for Flex compilation

Some answers and suggestions in regards to compilation speed:

- the best hardware to use is probably whatever is best for the JVM you are
using.  I don't know of and don't think there's any real recommended
solutions out there, other than "whatever is fastest".

- similarly, one thing that helps compilation speed would be to try a
different JVM (different version or even a different implementation... it
has been quite awhile since my JRun days so I haven't paid as much attention
to this, but back then it paid to try out IBMs JVM or JRockit).  Garbage
collection settings are also helpful to tweak.  If you're using mxmlc.exe,
the JVM settings are in bin/jvm.config.

- the compiler isn't multi-threaded when it is used from the command-line.
It is multi-threaded when used via the browser, but only for allowing
multiple compilations to happen at once.

- one reason the server is slow to start up because it takes awhile for
mx.swc and other SWCs to load.  This is one reason why compiling from the
command-line is slower, since this loading has to happen on each
compilation.

- I just checked and we aren't doing incremental compilation from the
command-line in a way I thought we were.  The way is through something
called SWOs.  As far as I can tell, this doesn't work from the command-line.
Because of this, I would recommend setting cache-swos to false in the
flex-config.xml used when compiling from the command-line.  While this
speeds things up when using the server, from the command-line this is just
saved a whole lot of information that isn't being used.

- you can get a broad idea of where time is being spent through the
unsupported, just-for-the-curious setting of "-Dtrace.benchmark" in the JVM
arguments.

As an aside, I'll mention some things that you probably know:

- If you let the Flex server compile the app as the result of hitting
an mxml page, it compiles incrementally ... which is very fast.  Of
course this doesn't work well via ant (you can use the  tag, but
there's no easy way to check for errors).

- Startup time for the compiler seems farily high.   If you hve more
than one app to compile, it's better to compile them in one fell swoop
(e.g., We compile three flex apps in about the sam time as it take to
compile just the largest app app alone!)

- Personally we use the incremental server based compilation during
daily development and standalone ant based compilation for
distribution builds.

alert(DS.length);

It adds it according to the alert, but nothing is changed in the

Is this possible?

RE: [flexcoders] Fastest Hardware for Flex compilation

2005-08-05 Thread Allen Manning
I have 1.5 gigs of memory and still have loads free when the compilation is
happening.

Would a second processor assist in mxmlc compilation?

[flexcoders] Fastest Hardware for Flex compilation

2005-08-05 Thread Allen Manning










Hello,

 

I’m trying to get my flex compilation time
down to as little as possible.  We are using mxmlc via Ant to compile our flex
code.  What machine spec would be the best to build these swfs fast.  Would a
dual proc help at all?

 

Thanks,

Allen

That might require a bit of javaScript to make sure the browser has focus, 
im not sure that there is much you could do within flex to get that.

I've got it working, just made a few changes to your code:

Otherwise, all is well.

[flexcoders] Form Control focus and Default Button

2005-07-28 Thread Allen Manning










Hello Flexcoders,

 

I’m working on a simple login form and attempting
to accomplish the following:

 

+ Assign a default button to login so after page
loads and you hit enter the form submits, no need to click in to the page.

+ Assign selection to the first of the two text
fields that have no text, otherwise focus should be on the button.

 

I have made a few attempts but I have not been able
to get it all working, only some of the functionality here and there.  

 

Thanks for any help,

Allen

Subject: [flexcoders] Form visibility question

We've got a project that has the following behavior.  When a particular
form item is answered a certain way, another form item should "turn on"
on the page.  A common example is choosing "Other" in a radio group
turns on a text box for inputting what "Other" is.

Right now, we've got ActionScript turning the visibility of the form
items on and off depending on answers to previous questions.  The
problem is that the form items still take up physical space.  The
behavior we'd like would have the form item not only be invisible but
also not take up space.  Then, when the required answer is given, the
form item would appear and push the content after it down.

I know it's a weird question, so here's a visual example:

Initial form state:

Choose your favorite fruit:
() Apples
() Oranges
() Lemons
() Other

Choose your favorite car:
() Chevy
() Ford
() Toyota



If Other is chosen:

Choose your favorite fruit:
() Apples
() Oranges
() Lemons
(*) Other
Please describe "other":
-
|   |
-

Choose your favorite car:
() Chevy
() Ford
() Toyota

Malcolm,

We are doing this very thing and it is working well for us.  

We use CFCs as our VOs and it allows us to type them in and out of CFC
method calls.

Can you post how the CFC is being called by Flex?  You need to use an anon
object with a named param, so this might be the problem.

I assume this is because I am passing in a Flex/Java object of the type
'LoginVO' and this is just not the same as a ColdFusion object of the type
'LoginVO' (as defined in LoginVO.cfc).

I really don't want to give up using value objects on the Flex side, as I
may one day move the backend of the application from cf to java.

I think I am going to have to give up on trying to define a cf version of my
value object and take one of the following approaches:

1. Create a Java Value Object in ColdFusion using the CreateObject function
in cf. Assign the Flex Value Object Data to the Java Value Object (created
via ColdFusion). Then access the values of cf/java object. I have no idea if
this will actually work! May just end up with the same error again :{

We are doing this very thing and it is working well for us.  

We use CFCs as our VOs and it allows us to type them in and out of CFC
method calls.

Can you post how the CFC is being called by Flex?  You need to use an anon
object with a named param, so this might be the problem.

Unless I am missing something, I think it's fair to say when using CF as a

Ok think I am going to have to admit defeat here, I have now tried the
following...I have created a cfc version of the Login Value Object.

 LoginVO.cfc 


   
   


- CFC 













I still get the same error as before...

Error Type: Expression
Message: You have attempted to dereference a scalar variable of type

I assume this is because I am passing in a Flex/Java object of the type
'LoginVO' and this is just not the same as a ColdFusion object of the type
'LoginVO' (as defined in LoginVO.cfc).

I really don't want to give up using value objects on the Flex side, as I
may one day move the backend of the application from cf to java.

I think I am going to have to give up on trying to define a cf version of my
value object and take one of the following approaches:

1. Create a Java Value Object in ColdFusion using the CreateObject function
in cf. Assign the Flex Value Object Data to the Java Value Object (created
via ColdFusion). Then access the values of cf/java object. I have no idea if
this will actually work! May just end up with the same error again :{

2. In my Flex value object have a "function toArray()" call that and then
pass to my cfc remote object. Yes would require going around every remote
service call sometime in the future when I go to java and removing such
calls.

Hmmm, re-reading my email, approach 1 really is madness, even if it did
work, it's a lot of work for the sake of being able to pass a flex/java
value object to a cfc (I am still going to have to pull the sucker to pieces
inside cf anyway), so I am not going to bother with this.

What does everyone else do here? Only pass data types that are supported by
cf argument? Any suggested best practice?

Comments welcome :D

a CFC can except "types" defined by another CFC.  In the cfargumnet
tag use the CFC name, dot.noted.paths.are.ok.too.



Note, the CFC method can also return "types" defined by CFCs too.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex and CFCs -- problems displaying recordsets in datagrids

2005-07-22 Thread Allen Manning
Darius,

Rather than passing ColdFusion recordsets directly back to Flex, what we did
is transform the results into an array of CFCs or an array of structs and
let the automatic AS type translation transform these results into native AS
value objects.

I would be weary of too tightly coupling your Flex layer with the specifics
of your server side.

HTH,
Allen

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex and CFCs -- problems displaying recordsets in
datagrids

Hi,

I'm new to Flex and have been working over the last few weeks to 
integrate this product with CF.  One of my central aims is to be able 
to pass data from Flex to a CFC which houses a query and will return 
a recordset back to Flex.  Through piecing together examples here and 
there, I've figured out how to call the CFC and send data to it from 
Flex, but I've been unable to figure out how to display the recordset 
in a Flex datagrid.  Any help/examples, best practices, on how to do 
this would be greatly appreciated.  My existing code follows.  The 
query recordset returns two fields.  The error I receive is:

1 Error found. 
 
Error /FlexToCFC2.mxml:19 
There is no property with the name 'text'.

[flexcoders] Extending Datagrid Column

2005-07-12 Thread Allen Manning










Hello Flex Coders,

 

I am trying to extend the Datagrid column so that I
can set a custom property ‘iconName’ which will refer to an icon that
I would like to appear in each row.  Here is how I would like to use it,
and below that is my error message – it appears I can’t extend
DataGridColumn.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I would like
to make the iconName available to my cell renderer without polluting my
DataProvider.

 

Thanks for any help,

Allen

 

   


   


   


   


   


   


   




 



IconDataGridColumn.as

 

IconDataGridColumn 

  extends
mx.controls.gridclasses.DataGridColumn

{

 

  public var iconName:String;

 

}

RE: [flexcoders] Re: New to Flex, Questions for datagrid

2005-06-21 Thread Allen Manning





Ritesh,
 
I'm no expert on .net, but I think that any application that can do this 
will need to support MS latest flavour of OLE.
 
I have heard the newer version of the MS OSs and their RIA framework will 
include Office components.  So instead of a datagrid, you would have 
Excel.
 
I have also heard that the actual reality of this is pretty far off, like 
years and years away.
 
Well that's my limited knowledge, only rumours at this point.  
Anyone have the real inside scoop?
 
Thanks,
Al

RE: [flexcoders] Cairngorm Store missing link?

Hello Kent,

One thing to try is using the Dataprovider API rather than Array methods
against the DG's Data Provider.  Doing this broadcasts events which tell
the Flex UI to update itself.

Hope this helps,

Subject: [flexcoders] Cairngorm Store missing link?

Ok it is a missing link in my brain and not a link that is missing.

I am confused how the dataProvider on line 58 of ShoppingCart.mxml gets
linked to the one in the ModelLocator?  It appears as if everything is
done by manipulating the ShoppingCart object that is in the ModelLocator
and some how it is getting changed in the View.

I ask because I currently have an Array of objects that represent lines
in a DataGrid.  When I add an element to that array I am not seeing it
in the datagrid.  I figure that it has something to do with the
redrawing of the component.  I looked at the Cairngorm Store as an
example because it is very similar to what I am trying.

  Anxiously awaiting the next Blog installments on the Cairngorm store,

Craig,
 
Can you try calling the RO in AS using an anon object in 
the call rather than MXML.  Also, just drop the type attribute for now in 
your CFC while you are debugging.
 
...
 
Thrust_Query({ThrustName:thrustCB.selectedItems})
 
...
 

 
Check the Net Connection Debugger for any

  Ok sorry, I thought

  You have

Hello, I am continuing this from the whitelist

many places,I must locate the "crossdomain.xml" file?Lets say, my 
Flex Server page resides at"http://192.168.10.160/mypage.mxml", 
and I am trying to access aRemoting Service which resides at "http://www.abc.com"?  It's obviouswhich 
entries need to be made in the actual .xml file, but WHERE must Iplace the 
actual files?My Remoting server is actually a Microsoft IIS Server, 
using the .NETFlash Remoting .dll file.  For those .NET remoting users 
out there, inorder to properly setup Flash Remoting for .NET, you must first 
setup aVirtual Directory, and then have a /bin directory underneath 
that(containing the .dll file).My actual remoting calls are made 
to"http://www.abc.com/virtualDirectory/flashgateway.aspx 
so the questionis, where do I actually place the crossdomain.xml 
files?  Do I have toplace one in the actual Flex Root directory?  
If so, would it be the WebRoot, or the directory in which the .MXML file is 
being served from?Also, the same goes for my IIS Web Directory - do I place 
it in myVirtual Root?  Any other places that I should be concerned 
with?If you could all clarify that for me, I'd be very 
appreciative.Thanks,Mike

RE: [flexcoders] Accordion, fillColors and a Validator

2005-06-08 Thread Allen Manning





Hello Christoph,
 
There are two approaches that I have seen so far to 
solving this problem:
 
1.  Concatenate a message "Requires Attention" to 
the existing title if the form is not valid. (I2 book chapter 8 I 
think...)
 
2.  Attach an image to child container header, 
like a little red exclamation or an informational 'i' icon and provide a tool 
tip. (As seen in Caledonian Bank if I remember correctly...).  I haven't 
seen a code snippet of this, but I would imagine that it is floating around 
somewhere.  If so I would like to see it.

Hi List,I use an Accordion with several childs which are

The validation-process works well. I'll give you a little screenshot:Every 
thy the button "eintragen" is pushed, Validator.isStructureValid() is called. My 
problem is that the user can't see the invalid "Vorname" and invalid "Nachname" 
if the Accordion-child "Web / Info" is active. To solve this problem I tried to 
change the accordionHeader-color:var myColor = 
[0xFF,0xFF];myAccordion.getHeaderAt(0).setStyle("fillColors",myColor);But 
this didn't work. Perhaps it is not possible to change a style on runtime? How 
can I flag the first accordion header when some values in it are not 
valid?I appreciate for any thought.GreetsChristoph--

Tolulope,
 
We have used ColdFusion with our Flex development and are 
pleased with it.  But I see that there is a trade-off to consider, rapid 
prototyping of ColdFusion vs. compiler support in catching type errors in 
Java.  I'm sure there are many other trade-offs, but this one seem 
paramount to me.

One thing to keep in

to whip up server - side Java code rapidly, the compiler doesn't support you in

Hi,
 
I think you will find 
Flex is equally well designed to work with both CFMX (which itself runs on J2EE) 
or any of the widely used Java/J2EE servers.  Your choice at that tier 
should be based on other considerations.  In general, if you are already 
using CFMX, I'd stay with it; if you are already using Java/J2EE I'd stay with 
that.  If you are not familiar with Java/J2EE ColdFusion is a faster 
learning curve and a more RAD model for building apps and I would reccomend you 
check it out.

that.  If you are not familiar with Java/J2EE ColdFusion is a faster 
learning curve and a more RAD model for building apps and I would reccomend you 
check it out.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex as a Windows Service?

2005-05-20 Thread Allen Manning





Hello Richard,
 
We use JRUN as our J2EE Server and we startup and run Flex 
via the JMC or as a Windows service.  To add a server as a windows service 
in JRUN we use the jrunsvc tool.
 
From the JRUN Live docs (http://livedocs.macromedia.com/jrun/4/JRun_SDK_Guide/apis4.htm):
 
Using the jrunsvc tool 
Use the jrunsvc tool to execute command on a 
JRun server that is a Windows service. With this tool, you can install, remove, 
start, and stop the JRun server's Windows service. 
To install a JRun server as a Windows service, 
use the following syntax from the jrun_root/bin directory: 
%> jrunsvc -install jrun_server [service_name [service_display_name [service_description]]]

To remove, start or stop a JRun server that is 
currently a Windows service, use the following syntax from the jrun_root/bin 
directory: 
%> jrunsvc -[remove|start|stop service_name]

 
Hope this helps,
Allen

RE: [flexcoders] combobox selectedIndex

2005-05-17 Thread Allen Manning
Title: Mercury Email Signature





Shlomi,
 
One possibility is that you are setting the index of the combobox before 
the databinding fires.  Thus:
 
1.  It attempts to set the index to 2.
2.  It sees the dataprovider has length 0.
3.  It silently fails at runtime.
 
some time goes by
 
4.  The dataprovider is populated by 
databinding.
 
You might want to try this:
 
    
private function getMySelectedIndex(intervals:Object):Number
    
{
    

    return(2);
 
    
}
 
 
 
selectedIndex="{getMySelectedIndex(intervals)}"/>
 
When 'intervals' changes it fires off a call to the local function 
getMySelectedIndex via databinding.

Allen

Thanks Hari,I

wonder why you would want a variable for the header :-) ... But, I also 
found that if you want to construct from 2 variables such as Order and Appl, you

Neil,
 
Could you unzip the directory and then rename all of the 
sub-zips to 'zippo', and email them to us as an attachment if you get the 
time.  I think that might trick the anti-virus software.  

 
Otherwise, if you could email it to me offlist, then I will

I'm sure we will get there somehow.

Hi Allen,I had the same problem, too, searching back to

  TartanUI.zip
  TartanFlex.zip 
  TartanCF.zip The link to the

with Tartan. Oddly, it doesn't include a working example of Flash Remoting with

RE: [flexcoders] Internal popups

Hello Jeff,
 
Have you thought of using a View Stack with a Title 
Window?  For a project we were working on, we first started with a Popup 
Window, but found performance to be a problem.  
 
We switched to a simulating a popup via a Title Window / 
View Stack and found it more performant and more usable.

I’ve been scouring the

simple.  How do I create a popup window that doesn’t reference an external 
file?  All examples point to loading in an external mxml file, but I would 
like to simply create a panel that is hidden on startup and have it hide / 
unhide on different events.  Is this possible?

RE: [flexcoders] Datagridcolumn sortCompareFunction

2005-05-04 Thread Allen Manning





Jeroen,
 
What if you pass an AS Object containing both 
'type' and 'name' properties to both columns.  You 
could then use a different label function on each column to display properly in 
the grid, and you would also have access to both values in your custom sort 
function.
 
I don't know how performant this would be, but the approach 
is worth mentioning...

I've solved this problem in the past by using the sort() function 
ofthe Array class, which takes a compare function as its only 
argument.Assuming that you are using an array as the data provider of 
yourgrid, you can sort the array and then display the sorted data in 
thegrid. You'll have to rig up some extra wiring if you want this to 
sorton a user action (e.g. clicking a column header).http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/actionscript_dictionary068.htmlJimOn

Rohit,
 
1.  I think I read a post that said this type of 
'command chaining' is going to be in the .99 release of Cairngorm.  I 
remember reading through a few posts of people working around this limitation, 
although I haven't done it myself, sorry.
 
2.  In Flex there is automatic translating that occurs 
between Java and ActionScript 2 objects.  
 
This resource may be of use:

question
Hi Gurus,Any response to the following questions 
about Cairngorm? Posting it again in the forum because the original is 
burried deep inside. Thanks for the help in advance...Hello Guys, 
I just started Flex development two months back and we are trying to 
develop an enterprise level application. So we decided to use open 
source Cairngorm Framework v 0.9 by Iteration Two. Though it lacks ample 
documentation, we straightway found its benefits as it neatly separates and 
organizes the mxml/action script code. Kudos to the developers of this great 
framework. We found this to be very benefitial for a big size application. 
I have two questions releted to the Cairngorm framework for rich 
internet apps: Question 1. If we need to execute multiple delegate 
methods in response to one user action, should we write a command action 
script for each of the methods? Or can we just have one command 
corresponding to each user action and invoke more than one delegate 
method in the execute method of this single command? If we can do the 
latter, is there a way to know in the onResult method that the respons 
is coming from which delegate method's execution and take appropriate 
action? Question 2. In the Java business classes, we return POJOs. Do 
they need to be converted to MXML Value Objects? We tried to directly pass 
these pojos to the view helpers do display them in the application and 
it seems to work perfectly. Are we doing something wrong or can there be any 
design problems in doing that which I am not realizing at the moment? 
Thanks & Regards, Rohit Chhabra.

RE: [flexcoders] Using FlexUnit with Cairngorm

2005-04-12 Thread Allen Manning





Michael and Dan, thanks for the responses.  
Let's say I had a custom component Login.mxml which is a simple login 
box.
 
How would I set that up for testing in my testing 
application with FlexUnit?  Would this be the way you would 
suggest?
 
I 
guess that if I were to move my Login.mxml into 'net.acme.project.views' then I 
could just instantiate them and test them  : 
net.acme.project.views.Login.  Thus:
 
import 
net.acme.project.view.Login;
 
Function 
setup(){myLoginView 
= new Login();  
}
Function 
testLogin():Void
{
 
   assertTrue('username getter isn't pre-set 
correctly', myLoginView.getUsername(), 'Enter 
Username...');
 
 
}
 
 
That 
might be the path that I start down unless I'm missing something.  I'm not 
using View Helpers now just for clarity.  Adding a testing suite to the 
Cairngorm demo example would be a good investment IMHO.
 
Thanks,
Allen

I'm tackling a simlar thing at the moment too :)I'm trying to 
test AS business delegate methods to check that they correctly call remote java 
methods.  The delegates try and use something like "this.service = 
ServiceLocator.getInstance().getService( "applicationDelegate" );".  
But how do instantiate my ServiceLocator (in my case 
Services.mxml)Also, how do I test the asynch remote calls?  
In java I would do something like create a MockResponder as an inner class 
and put a wait() in my test and have the onResult() and onFault() methods call 
notify().  AS doesn't support inner classes (though I suspect Delegate is 
the answer somehow). Thoughts???cheersDan(...still eagerly

Rather - Disabling the admin service does notprevent

Large Data Sets 
Below is a demonstration of a UI component that is 
capable of displaying a large data-set of discrete values, which can then be 
quickly reduced as the user begins to type the value they are searching for. 
This is a desktop metaphor that many will be familiar with - Microsoft calls it 
"intellisense" completion in some of its products. 
 

Macromedia - Accessibility Flex Example 
Applications 
Macromedia Flex applications combine the rich 
interactive experience of the desktop with the reach of the web. The best way to 
understand Flex applications is to experience them yourself.

UI Question
Folks:I've got a somewhat off-topic question, but it 
does pertain to Flexand HTML sites. I've trying to learn the best method for 
looking up acustomer record for a form page. We've all seen this done a 
number ofdifferent ways, but our particular challenge is that our clients 
arebanks and you won't believe how many banks have the same name - not 
tomention that we have dozens of entries in the database of branches 
ofthe same bank. We need a method where the user can look for a 
customerand choose that customer for use in the form, or if the customer 
isn'tfound - add the customer on the fly. In Flex there it seems 
that there might be several workable solutions,one of which would be: a 
panel could be used to filter choices byallowing the user to type the name 
and search or filter in some wayand then drag & drop the desired 
customer record onto the form. If therecord isn't found you simply add it 
though another panel or dialog. Does anyone have any other methods they 
could suggest? I have a needto accomplishing this on an html page as well 
and cannot think of anelegent solution that doesn't take the user off-page. 
A popup (this isonly for internal users) could work. I'm at a loss for an 
elegent wayto accomplish this via html. 
Ideas?Thanks,Scott

James,
 
Please see the below code snippets, this works for 
us...

if (!Validator.isStructureValid(this, 'editedPayment'))
return;
}

It’s because you’re 
probably not using binding to setup the relationship between the contactVO and 
the form fields.  All you need to do is on your validators set the listener 
property to be the TextInput that is the source.

ValueObject
 
Has anyone ever tried to use the Validator with a 
ValueObject instead ofa Model object?  I am trying it, but instead of my form 
fields gettingred borders when 
validation fails, I get pop-ups.  :(Here is some of my code:import valueobjects.*;var contactVO : ContactVO;function initApp() : Void{  
contactVO = new ContactVO();}function 
nextPage() : Void{  
loadContactVO();  if 
(mx.validators.Validator.isStructureValid(this,'contactVO'))  {    // flip to the second 
accordian    
information.selectedIndex = 1;  }}If I add in a Model object then it will work, but I hate 
having tomaintain my value objects 
in 3 places.BTW: The reason why 
I am using a Value Object is because it seems that Ihave to in order to pass a VO to my 
RemoteObject.Thanks in 
advance.-James
