RE: [flexcoders] best way to do database to Java to XML to flex

2006-11-26 Thread Flexy
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.

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.

[flexcoders] Newbie question: Showing a vertical scroll bar on application

2006-11-26 Thread Flexy
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?

2006-11-25 Thread Flexy
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,

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
