RE: [flexcoders] best way to do database to Java to XML to flex
Hello Hank, Some DB's can return result sets in XML all by themselves. IIRC SQLServer can do this. So middle tier is no longer an issue either.. Hope this helps, Flexy. _ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of hank williams Sent: Sunday, November 26, 2006 12:57 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] best way to do database to Java to XML to flex I have been using remoting to get data out of my database and into flex. The nice thing about this is it handles all the data conversion issues etc. But now, I have a need to be able to communicate certain data in XML format. I would imagine that there must be a clean process/format for communicating between server and client in XML such that the datatypes and reserved characters such as ,',,, are handled. what is the easiest way of doing this? Is there some XML database communications standard which flex can read? Do people just roll their own (ugh?). There must be a clean easy way to do this. Hank
[flexcoders] Newbie question: Showing a vertical scroll bar on application
Hi, I am adding titlewindows using the popupManager on the application canvas, I have many of them so some are beyond the screen height, However, no vertical scrollbar shows - how can I make sure the vertical scroll bar shows if there are controls beyond the screen height? Thanks, Flexy.
RE: [flexcoders] GLOBAL functions?
Hi, Try creating a package with a class containing all your global functions (i.e myUtils), then you can include this package and use the class including functions and variables. Hope this helps, Flexy _ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Kellogg @ Project SOC Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2006 7:05 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] GLOBAL functions? Hello, I've got some functions and variables in my main MXML file that I need to access from other MXMLs in the project. For some reason, I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I've (obviously) checked the documentation looking for a 'global' keyword, or for an 'extern' keyword or for some other way to do this. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance, Steve Steve Kellogg Peak8 Solutions 1401 14th Street Boulder, Colorado 80302, USA Fax: 303.415.2597 E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
