Re: [flexcoders] Best practices with modular applications
HI Jeff, I am not surprised that there are no replies to your post. I have been researching this question for a project just about to start, and I cant find much information. I am struggling with the decision about if/should we go with modules or sub-applications, because there are so many issues with GC and unloading modules. I would be interested to learn which way you went with this.

The intent is to have a main application that acts as a general loader for many diagram types implemented as modules. The dilemma is whether to break the modules out into separate flex projects or to include them as subdirectories of the main application's project. I've seen some of the adobe documentation but I'm hoping that someone has some experience/insights as to which is the better approach. Thanks. -- Hilary --

I am writing the tiny app given in a video tutorial by Sho Kuwamoto.

This is leading me to believe that maybe the .result property has been removed??? And that is why my application fails? The end result is that I have this thing setup identical to the tutorial but it just won't do anything on the results display.

My situation is as follows: I have defined a custom MXML component that extends the Canvas class (myComponent). MXML root node of the file, I put a Text element, assigning it an ID (myText). I define a setter method on this class (myProperty) that takes a String argument and passes it to myText.text. I use the custom component in the application, with a tag like this: local:MyComponent myProperty=a value / Sure enough the instance is created and the setter method is called. However, an error results when I try to access the property of the child Text object. Apparently it has not been initialised when the method is called. This results in an error (setting a property on a null object). My question is if this is the expected behaviour and if there is a way to achieve this with MXML (setting properties of child objects from a setter method called at init time).

Re: [flexcoders] SWF's not unloading
Not a problem Angus, I seem to remember seeing this as an issue somewhere. Streams are not killed when the application is unloaded. Other than your possible solution, I am not aware of a workaround at this time. Hilary -- On 7/10/06, Angus Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Gotcha. Thanks Hilary. I'm pretty happy with the way swf's are loading now. Looks like garbage collection destroys unused swf's after I made sure the references were deleted.I still have an issue unloading swf's that are not movies but applications. For example, an application written by someone else which uses the sound class and streams music to the client. It continues to play even when unloaded and removed. I guess the best way to deal with this is get other developers to implement a hook or interface which can be called by the parent application, something like onTerminate(). That method then tidies up the sub application and in this case closes the sound stream. Might need to spec out an interface or something similar.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Using Eclipse to create a central library
Thanks for that Hank, That should help anyone looking for a solution to this issue.

Navigate to the folder *containing the folder or folders that you want to include. For my structure I had a directory called src that contained folders like com. So in my case I selected src. This is necessary so that you can find fully qualified package paths. RegardsHank On 6/24/06, Hilary Bridel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I would be interested in the answer...

Re: [flexcoders] MovieClips in AS3
Weyert, that's correct. If I cant do it with a flash 8 swf, how can I make a flash 9/AS3 movieclip so I can use it in Flex with gotoAndPlay etc. The AS3 docos say that you can only manipulate AS3 movieclips.

Re: [flexcoders] MovieClips in AS3
Ok, I did some more research. You cannot programmatically make AS3 movieclips. Ali Mills has a blog post with a workaround using localconnection until Blaze is available http://www.asserttrue.com/articles/2006/05/16/library-type-assets-in-actionscript-3-0-using-assets-created-with-current-releases-of-flash-authoring Thanks Ali...

[flexcoders] MovieClips in AS3
Hi all, Is it possible to programmatically build an AS3 movieclip complete with frame names and content on each frameetc? If not, does that meanwe have to wait for the next version of the Flash IDE?-- Hilary-- __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!

FlexBuilder == code/developmentFlash == design/graphics You can still use Flash8 swfs in AS3, all the code is stripped out so you would have to use The loader object to access the content swf and control the MovieClip object from there.Peace, Mike On 6/17/06, Hilary Bridel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, Is it possible to programmatically build an AS3 movieclip complete with frame names and content on each frameetc?
