[flexcoders] I need a display suggestion.
I have been working on a calendar of events flex application as most anybody who monitors these flex lists probably has noticed. This is a reworking of an existing [D]HTML/CFML application. Part of the current display is that canceled events are displayed with a strike-through text decoration. I am trying to convey this same information in the flex version. I have tried using a strike-through decoration, but my attempts to use htmlText functionality in flex did not produce any results. I then tried to use the alpha property to fade the canceled events. After embedding a font so that the alpha effect would take effect, the results where less then desirable, it was just not clear enough. Any suggestions on a simple but effective way to display the canceled events? It should be noted that the events are color coded to indicate which of four areas to which they belong. This color coded information needs to be maintained for canceled events and I am reluctant to try and create four canceled colors. This is a quite a colorful, busy, information packed screen as it is. Is there an easy way I could apply an image/graphic/effect to create some kind of diagonal lines mask/background of the box containing the canceled drive information?
RE: [flexcoders] I need a display suggestion.
You will soon learn not to listen to carefully to UI advice from me, but how about an alpha'd Cancelled diagonally across the text? Well, using the word Cancelled may be a bit of a sell. But I presume if I could get the word to be alph'd across the text, I could also do that with a diagonal line graphic or other options. What I need is a basic suggestion on how to do this? How do I conditionally add something on top | under | through a given event box based on the status property of the event element in the array collection.

Ok, Ok, I said my brain was very foggy today, didn't I?
Even if one is returning a query with only one row in it that is getting
turned into an array collection, one must reference the index [0] of the
one record returned to access the properties|fields of said query.
{draw.details[0].R_MOB_MNAME} works just fine.

My advice as a component developer is, subclass the Box and create a bottomRenderer property that is IFactory. Create a method that overrides layoutChrome() and layout the renderer based on your required dimensions. This instance would be added to rawChildren. Another angle is if you need the box created in mxml for some reason(in the content children), override createComponentsFromDescriptors() remove the instance you have identified, put it in rawChildren and layout it out in the chrome. You will need to override viewMetrics() and add the height of the instance to the bottom property. If this sounds like something you would want to try, I can be more specific.

Ian, Let me ask, what are your intentions? What is the purpose of the pinned instance? Then I could explain why I over engineered what Doug put so simply :) Peace, Mike Sure thing Mike, Doug's solution is something I would give a try. I have a series of containers, currently VBoxes, laid out in a grid consisting of seven columns by four to six rows; a calendar. Each of these containers contains 0 to N (a dozen or so max) events with their details displayed in child containers of the previous day containers. The height of each row of day containers is determined by the day with the most events in that row. At the bottom of each day container, another child container containing notes for the given day is to be displayed. The users want it at the bottom of the container whether there is 0 events or 14 events.

[flexcoders] filter array collection property.
I have a remote object call that returns an array of elements ['daysAry'] each with several properties, including one ['drawsQry'] that is also an array collection. I want my display that is built showing all the daysAry elements with each drawsQry element to be able to filter which drawsQry elements are displayed based on a combobox value. I understand I use the filterFunction property to assign a function to determine which elements to show. I am not sure how to best set this property on each and every drawsQry element in the daysAry array collection. Is it as simple as looping over the daysAry collection in my remoteObject handler and assign the function to each array collection property. Could I just assign a filter function to the main daysAry collection and inside that function loop over the drawsQry property and set something there. Or is there another more elegant solution I am over looking. Thank You

RE: [flexcoders] How to constrain child elements within a flexable parent?
I'm curious you're still getting scrollbar and/or no truncation of the label. No, I do not have a small example, because the small example works as expected. It's when I expand the code into my actual application that the behavior changes slightly. I will say what I have is quite workable. I am just missing that bit of extra, nice decoration of the ellipses (...) when the text is larger then will fit into the container. The way it is currently working in my application, the text is 'cropped' at the edge of the container, but it is not 'truncated' to differentiate the addition of the ellipses and tool tip to show the entire text on mouse over. I have manually added the tool tip, but I don't know how to handle the ellipses, but I could probably live without them.

[flexcoders] Synchronizing data between viewStack elements
When a user clicks on a container built with repeated array collection elements in one viewStack layer, the selected element needs to be utilized to populate the data in a second viewStack layer and vice-a-versa.

I have a the following MXML line:

displayDay is an Array Collection that will often contain more elements
then can be vertically displayed in the area provided by the constraints
on the DayBox container. When this happens I want the scroll bar to
just be within this container, not the entire application container.
Nothing I've tried seems to have any effect, how does one do this?
RE: [flexcoders] Synchronizing data between viewStack elements
I'd bind both sets of elements to the same data providers and that should keep them synchronous without any extra work on your part. Could somebody expand on the specifics on how one could do this? I have an main Array Collection that contains 28, 35 or 42 elements. In my default view, I use this as a data provider for a repeater control to create a serious of boxes displaying the data of each element. Each main element also contains a property that is an array collection. This array is used in a sub-repeater to vertically display each element inside the parent box. When a user clicks on any of these sub-element boxes I am switching to a detail view based on a HDividedBox. On the right I want to display details related to the element clicked on by the user, on the left I want to display the element in the parent array including all the elements of the sub array collection. The vice-a-versa come since users will be able to change which element and sub-element they are seeing view as well as completely change the main data collection with a calendar control within the details view.

No it is not. Just to be clear of what a 'parent' is? Is it any
container between the Application and DayBox, or just the roots my

I have a the following MXML line:
mcView:DayBox dayData={displayDay} top=214 bottom=10
minHeight=0 right=10 left=10 minWidth=0/
displayDay is an Array Collection that will often contain more elements
then can be vertically displayed in the area provided by the constraints
on the DayBox container. When this happens I want the scroll bar to
just be within this container, not the entire application container.
Nothing I've tried seems to have any effect, how does one do this?

RE: [flexcoders] How to constrain child elements within a flexable parent?
Yes, I did mean HBox, there is a VBox container around the label,
because once I have the layout figured out, there will be more then just
a label in it.
Here is the code that did not work for me:
mx:Repeater id=weekRows dataProvider={weekStartsAry}
mx:HBox width=100%
mx:Repeater id=dayCells dataProvider={parentApplication.daysAry}
startingIndex={weekRows.currentItem} count=7
mx:VBox width=14.25% height=200 horizontalScrollPolicy=off
mx:Label text={dayCells.currentItem} /
/mx:VBox
/mx:Repeater
/mx:HBox
/mx:Repeater
The last minute before I had to leave and catch my train home, I worked
up this solution:
mx:Label width={parentDocument.width/7} text={dayCells.currentItem}
includeInLayout=false truncateToFit=true /
This works, but I'm a bit confused about the parentDocument, I expected
that to refer to the VBox around the label, but apparently it is
referring to some higher container|control, can somebody provide any
insight to what element this is referring?

Did you mean HBox instead of VBox?
From your description of the layout, it should just work. Can you post
a simple example that doesn't work?

The text of this label maybe longer then can be displayed within the

The trouble is that if I code all the above elements with percentages
the labels will expand and push the parent VBox beyond the width of the
Panel and I do not want this.
How can I constrain the widths of the Labels (or other
containers|controls I may want to put at this level) so that it will not
expand, without losing the flexibility of the overall design?

[flexcoders] Constrain a label to a flexible length.
I desire to constrain the text in a label to its width, but I want that
width to be flexible when the browser is resized. When I use a
percentage for the width of the label the text is not constrained,
rather the label and any percentage width parent will expand to display
the full text length. Am I missing something here.
I have enclosed a small demonstration of this behavior. If you run this
MXML, you will notice that in row2 the labels are constrained to a width
of 150, but of course this width does not adjust if the browser is
resized. In row1, the labels are set to be width of 25%, but the third
label is not constrained, it is stretched to display the entire string
and is no longer 1/4 of the width of the display.

gives them how much the (say) they need, and, since after that there's

So in such cases you need to set minWidth/minHeight explicitly. This

this solution:

RE: [flexcoders] How to constrain child elements within a flexable parent?
Manish Jethani
So this is what you want:
?xml version=1.0?
...
That is close to what I want. It worked fine when the label itself was
constrained as I had been testing to simplify my code. But in my actual
code, where the label is a child of a custom MXML VBox container it is
not quite working. It is no longer stretching the container as it was
without the minWidth, but it is not truncating to the width of the
container either. It is causing the entire container to use scroll
bars. Using horizontalScrollPolicy=off will suppress the scroll bars,
but the labels are not truncated with the nice ellipses (...) and
automatic tool tip with the full string, they are just cutoff.
Close, so close.

[flexcoders] Development/Debugging version of Flash Player.
Somewhere since I installed Flex Builder and did the basic tutorials some time ago and now I have had my Flash Player reinstalled. Apparently the version I have now is not the one the Flex Builder expects. Every time I run my developing Flex application I get the following dialog box. --- Flash Player Not Found D:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\NPSWF32.dll Flex Builder cannot locate the required version of the Flash Player. You may need to install Flash Player 9.0 or reinstall Flex Builder. Do you want to try to run your application with the current version? Yes|No --- Now, I have installed Flash Player 9 from the Adobe website, and when I click 'yes' the application runs correctly. But I am getting tired of having to click 'yes' every time I run the Flex application. Also, I believe my current version of Flash Player does not work in debugging mode. I got strange behavior the one time I tired. Is there someplace I can get the Flex Builder/Debugging version of Flash Player? Back in the day when I was playing with the beta's of Flex it was a separate download and install. Now I can not find it anywhere. I made one attempt at reinstalling Flex Builder, but I was greeted with a fairly strongly worded message that this is NOT recommended.

[flexcoders] A big newbie flex question.
Where do I put it all? I've done many of the basic tutorials, I have a pretty good idea on how to create simple flex projects. I am now trying to design a real, functioning project based on one of our most important, internal, web applications. I find myself a little over my head. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am building what is basically a calendar of events. I'm currently using flash remoting to pull the event data with ColdFusion from a database. I will have to main 'views' to start with. One is a full calendar display of all the events for a month. The second is a drill down that will display all the details of an individual event, with a panel on the left displaying other events on the same date. I've built most of the pieces of this, but I'm having trouble putting it together in a manageable layout. To date, I've pretty much put everything into a single MXML file but this is getting quite unwieldy. However when I try to pull pieces out into custom controls I start having great difficulty dealing with the data and the various view pieces. So, one has managed to wade through all that exposition, what is a good way to do this? Where do I put the data access logic. I presume in my root application file. But, if I do that, how do I access it from my various view pieces? How do I connect all the dots?
RE: [flexcoders] Flex Vs Ajax

RE: [flexcoders] Re: No date displaying revisited.
Well actually “Day” is a custom object defined in a Day.as file. It is
a date property of type Date. (I guess I should probably come up with more
unique names for all these pieces.) It seems to work fine in other places.
When I was calling this formatter in a tilelist with this code, it worked.
!--mx:Binding source=days destination=list.dataProvider/--
…
!--mx:TileList id=list itemRenderer=dayFormat
width=100% maxColumns=7/--
Then I could access the properties of the Day object such with data.date,
data.formatedDate and data.inMonth.
But in my current code this does not seem to be working as I expected,
but is also not throwing any errors.
Your code would work if dayData was a Date, instead of Day. If it's
just a number, perhaps you should use a number formatter instead.

Yeah Tim, that worked. height={panel1.height
- 160} Now the really cool trick would be have the 160 be based on the
height of the two controls above the grid. But for now, this is great.
Now I am off to the biggest chalenge to

to even start.

[flexcoders] The next level
Ok, I am not even sure what I am looking for here, something built into the states functionality, some kind of behavior, some thing I am not even aware of. I have a basic calendar of events. I would now like to be able to drill down into each event. Have the user select an event, with some kind of highlight effect, and select a Details button and go to my new state, where all the details of the event can be viewed and edited. How do I even start with this? What parts of the documentation am I looking for? Each of my events are contianed in a custom control (drawsRenderer.mxml). These draws elements are created in a repeater loop contained in the custom control, dayFormat2.mxml which is called in from the grid item control in the main application. Somewhere in there I need to grab the current event object and pass it somehow to my details state so that I can display it there. I would also like to add some kind of hover highlight state for each event. What I don't understand is how to identify one event from another to know which one to highlight. Finally, I would like a third state which is for adding a new event. It would be triggered by a control in each instance of dayformat2, but would need to modify the controls in the main application file. How do I reference these controls from inside the dayformat2 custom control. TIA for all my newby questions. Suggestions on where in the maunal I should read as well is code suggestions most welcome. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA - | 1 | | - Binary Soduko | | | - C code.

RE: [flexcoders] What is the difference between versions of Flex Data Services
I would love to hear if there is any other similarly priced server software technology (and I'm not talking ERP or something) on the market. I am in awe. Hank But has anybody bothered to call and ask Adobe what this all means or are we all relying on speculation and gossip of a news list and based on that information, judging Adobe to have priced themselves out of the market. I suspect a company as experienced as Adobe is very much aware of the market and what other similar technologies go for. I would suspect the way it might work is that a large organization would have a FDS server that many other servers talk to for the FDS tasks. This is supposed to be a multi-tier concept is it not? Do you guys running large enterprise systems put an Oracle database server on all your web servers? We do not. That is my uniformed 2cents. And since I know our organization can get by for a long time on the free version and maybe, eventually, someday the 6k version; when and if we get around to using FDS in the first place. So far what I have played with works very well with the ColdFusion flash remoting connection, which is a free upgrade to our ColdFusion license. I am not too concerned about the large version for the foreseeable future. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA - | 1 | | - Binary Soduko | | | - C code.

Actually it was an error of using target
when I should have been using relativeTo. I was working off of some outdated documentation

This error means the component you are
trying to add is already a child component of some container. In your example Im
sure VBox is already a child of application or any other component. You first
need to remove that child from the existing parent and then add to a new parent.
If the VBox id is V1 and Panels id is P1
then you should write
mx:RemoveChild target={V1}/
mx:AddChild target={V1} relativeTo={P1}/

Hi Ian,
I also encountered the same problem with Beta 3 it seemed like a
bug to not be able to use a custom component inside a repeater.
I also arrived at the same solution as you i.e. not use a custom
component use Flex components only.
May be this has been fixed in the released version, I haven't
tried it yet.
Thanks,
Aejaz

it is not a problem to use repeaters and custom components AFAIK. I
will note that sometimes you need to create your own getter/setter
methods for use. I don't thinks that's the issue with Ian though, but
could be.
DK
I suspect it was my latest problem. Because once I changed my
declaration from var drawData:drawDay to var drawData:Object I could use the
object inside my custom component. But I suspect this is not the best
solution. At least it lets me practice other things at the moment though.

[flexcoders] Constraining a flexabile layout.
Hey, I have enough functionality I can now play with display aesthetics. Thanks for all the help I have received on these lists. I have a grid, displaying the days and weeks of a month. Each day cell contains a list of events. The names of the events can get rather long. I do not want them to stretch the grid and its parent canvas and application containers beyond the browser. But I would like the display to fill the browser area if possible. I have the max diminsion hard coded to be constrained to basicly 1024 by 768. It works and I can live with this for now, but it seems a bit constraining, ha ha. I would much rather have the layout flexable to grow and retract with the size of the browser, but still have the containers inside the day dataItem cells to not be allowed to stretch beyond these flexible max diminsions. But I do not see how this would work. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA - | 1 | | - Binary Soduko | | | - C code. C code run. Run code run.

[flexcoders] Properly binding an object to a custom component.
I am apparently not doing this. What am I missing to properly bind an object
from a repeater looping over an array of object to the custom component called
in the repeater?
mx:Repeater
id=dayCells
dataProvider={days}
startingIndex={weekRows.currentItem}
count=7
mx:GridItem
width=14%
borderColor=black
borderThickness=1
borderStyle=solid
mx:Label
text={dayCells.currentItem.formatedDate} /
ian:dayFormat2
drawData={dayCells.currentItem as drawDay}
test={dayCells.currentItem.formatedDate} /
/mx:GridItem
/mx:Repeater
{days} is an array of drawDate.as objects returned with a remoteObject. I can
correctly bind properties of these drawDate objects in the lable and the test
property of the dayFormat2 customComponent. But I can NOT correctly bind the
entire object over to dayFormat2. What am I missing?
My current version of dayFormat2.mxml, I have tried several alternatives for
this file.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:VBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=100%
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import drawDay;
//Define public variables
[Bindable]
public var drawData:drawDay;
[Bindable]
public var test:String;
]]
/mx:Script
mx:DateFormatter id=dayNum formatString=DD /
mx:HBox
backgroundColor=0x002649
width=100%
horizontalAlign=right
mx:Label
text={test}
color=white /
mx:HBox
backgroundColor=0xAF1E2D
horizontalAlign=center
mx:Label
text={dayNum.format(drawData.date)}
color=white /
/mx:HBox
/mx:HBox
mx:Label text=foobar /
/mx:VBox
The first label bound to the test String works correctly. The second label
bound to the drawData drawDay object date property does not work correctly.
What is the proper way to bind this object?

I have struggled with this all day and made no headway. The only strange thing
I get is with this line:

outputs [object Object]
Not the expected string from this drawDay.as function.

This Works.
ns1:dayFormat2 dayData=George /
This does not work.
ns1:dayFormat2 dayData={DayNum.format(dayCells.currentItem.date)} /
And neither does this. Of course for this version I change the dayData type to
date in the custom component.
ns1:dayFormat2 dayData={dayCells.currentItem.date} /
Just to make sure that the date exists as I expect. If I replace the
dayFormat2 custom comment with a label, I get the dates just fine.

[flexcoders] RE: Newbie layout help.
Ok, I have a custom control created to handle the formatting inside each of my
gridItem. I want to pass the day object that is the current item of the
Repeater into this custom control. How do I define the variable in side my
custom control to accept on object of type Day defined in a Day.as file?
That is what the repeater current item will pass in if it is looping over an
array of Day objects correct?

I have this working to the point that I am creating a grid of 7 columns and the
appropriate number of rows to display all records returned from the
remoteObject.
As one might guess this will be an event calendar type display. Now I just
need to figure out how I use the dayFormat.mxml file I created when I started
with the Phones example and use it for the content of the GridItem cells
instead of the simple label I have in there now. Or do I just copy that entire
file's code into the main.mxml file fragment I've included here?
mx:Grid width=100% backgroundColor=yellow
mx:Repeater id=weekRows dataProvider={weeksAry}
mx:GridRow width=100%
mx:Repeater
id=dayCells
dataProvider={days}
startingIndex={weekRows.currentItem}
count=7
mx:GridItem width=14% backgroundColor=blue
mx:Label text={Day.format(dayCells.currentItem.date)} /
/mx:GridItem
/mx:Repeater
/mx:GridRow
/mx:Repeater
/mx:Grid
I'd stick with using VOs over records, gives you that nice OO warm fuzzy
feeling. Columns fixed at 7, it seems. So return a array of objects that are
the parents that have the data for the grid. Note that these have 7 instance
variables that will populate your grid columns. Each of these can have a array
of other objects for your tile list.

I can not see how to even start this kind of display. Any help would

[flexcoders] No date displaying revisited.
I have modified my code calling a custom component to pass in the entire object
rather then just the date property of the object. This seems to be working as
I get a display of the proper number of objects without any error thrown. But
the display of the date of the object is a blank space.
Can somebody explain why passing the entire object, rather then one property of
the object, is causing me a problem?

RE: [flexcoders] Installing Flex 2 beta 2 with flash remoting against multi-home ColdFusion.
Can anybody point me to documentation or explanation of just what one needs to put into the endpoint uri parameter in the flex-enterprise-services.xml file?
I think I am close to getting the phones example running. I can get the Flex frame work to run, I can see the container in the browser.
But, the ColdFusion connector does not seem to be working. I get the following error.
Error: faultCode:Client.Error.MessageSend faultString:'Send failed' faultDetail:'Channel.Connect.Failed error NetConnection.Call.Failed: HTTP: Failed'
at mx.rpc::AbstractInvoker/http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal::faultHandler()

at mx.messaging.channels::NetConnectionChannel/mx.messaging.channels:NetConnectionChannel::connectFailed()
at mx.messaging.channels::AMFChannel/mx.messaging.channels:AMFChannel::statusHandler()
Seeing the messages about the AMFChannel apparently failing, I presume the problem is that I do not have the correct parameter in the flex-enterprise-services.xml file.
My system:
Win 2000 server.
IIS 5
ColdFusion MX 7.01 Multi-server configuration.
I have a website named ian-flex defined in IIS pointed to the directory C:\websites\flex. My hosts file is configured to return this directory for the host header of http://ian-flex. The Phones application is installed into this directory. The website is configured to run under the CF instance of Playground.
I have tried many combinations of values for the URI parameter for this line in the C:\JRun4\servers\playground\cfusion.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\flex\flex-enterprise-services.xml file.
endpoint uri=http//ian-flex{context.root}/flex2gateway/ class=flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint/

I am trying to install the new Flex 2 Beta 2 application in order to test it
out and see what I can do with combining it with Cold Fusion. To get started,
I am trying to get the phones example up and running.
My system:
Windows Server 2000.
CFMX 7 Enterprise in Multi-home configuration.
(Mystic Beta 2 installed, I believe)
Flex 2 Builder Beta 2 installed.
I have created an IIS virtual website on my workstation server named Flex
with its home directory of C:\WebSites\Flex. I connected this website to a
ColdFusion instance called Playground. I have confirmed that the website is
properly running HTML and CFML.
I then installed the phones example code into the Flex home directory and
tested the ColdFusion part. Thus I have the following directories.
C:\WebSites\Flex\Phones\CF
C:\WebSites\Flex\Phones\Flex
All this seemed to go find and dandy. But when I open Flex Builder and try to
define the phones project I run into trouble. I select File - New - Flex
Project. I select the ColdFusion Flash Remoting Service option and Next.
I then get the following error. Server root is invalid. Could not locate
flex-config.xml or flex-enterprise-services.xml. I am not sure what I am
supposed to do here. I have many copies of both of these files. I have tried
C:\JRun4\servers\playground\cfusion.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\flex which I know
contains a flex-enterprise-services.xml file. And

know contains a flex-confi
[flexcoders] Anybody willing to field a Flex2/CF noobs architectural questions?
I am studying the phones example, the documentation, and all web resources I know of as fast as I can in order to get my 25 year old procedural head around these new Flex/OO concepts. My goal is to create a working mockup of an existing application I wrote in CFML\HTML a few years ago. I am having trouble finding the information I need to get very far in this project. I do not yet know enough to even know where to begin. My first stumbling block, how does one retrieve multiple pieces of data from the CFC backend? Following the phones example and the documentation I have successfully retrieved a simple array and attached it to a tile list, but I also want a string label that describes/names the dynamic data in the array. I created a function to return the string, but do not know how to connect this string to a label control separately from the array which is connected to a tile control at the same time. I can provide copies of my files to anybody willing to review them. I am not posting them here until I learn whether it is accepted or not to post larger code examples to this list. Pointers to useful sections of the manual or other written resources also gratefully accepted.

CF query - ** cfquery name=getAllPersonnel datasource=spotDB SELECT PersonName, PersonTitle, convert(datetime, InterviewDate, 101) FROM dbo.PersonnelNeeded WHERE (InterviewDate = '2/20/2005') /cfquery On all the DBMS that I have experience with, using a function in the select statement will cause the name of the column to be changed. The easiest fix for this is to alias the column name. SELECT PersonName, PersonTitle, convert(datetime, InterviewDate, 101) AS InterviewDate This will alias the column back to its original name.

This is the Cf/jrun instance associated with the default website configured in my IIS manager. Have you verified the port number in flex-enterprise-services.xml? I have tried. I looked in the flex-enterprise-services.xml file, but I do not see a port number, I am not sure which element is supposed to have one and whether I should be seing one or not. I access my defalut website with http://localhost without a portnumber. I've tested the CF code with the following url: http://localhost/CFIDE/samples/Phones/CF/test.cfm.

RE: [flexcoders] First time flex2 app Phones Example Failing
I've never tried on a multi-home config, but everything looks fine.
Thanks, a solution was posted to Ben Forta's and now the CF/Flex connector
forum at labs.adobe.com. I had to add all the mxml files to the project.
From thinman's post to Ben Forta's blog:
http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/2/1/ColdFusion-Flex-2-Sample-Application
Needed to add the all 3 mxml files into the Flex Applications panel of the
Properties for the Phones app:
Right-click the app
Select Properties
Select Flex Applications
Click the 'Add..' button
Select ProductDetails.mxml and Thumb.mxml
After following this, I got the sample app running. Now I'm trying to learn
from it to create my own Hello World CF/Flex app. It would be nice if there
was a few | a lot more comments in the files on what each piece is doing and
how one would modify it to use it for one's own purpose.
I'm trying to start with a simple CFC that sends a simple string, then work up
to arrays, structures and queries. But I am very unclear on what I am
modifying and why. I foresee a lot of frustrating trial and error ahead of me.
Thanks for you help Benoit

I've never tried on a multi-home config, but everything looks fine.
You change the port number in your endpoint URL in
flex-enterprise-services.xml:
Ex. : endpoint uri=http://localhost:8500/flex2gateway/;
(you must restart your service)
In your case, it should be (default value, I think):
endpoint uri=http://localhost{context.root}/flex2gateway/;
What you can do : check the cfusion-out.log in the Jrun logs.
If the flex2gateway is correctly called, it will log all the messages in it
with [Flex] flag.
But I suspect that your flex2gateway is never called...

--services=C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\flex\fle
x-enterprise-services.xml
I am running ColdFusion in a multi-home configuration on the native Jrun.
So I am not sure this is the correct value. But I picked the
flex-enterprise-services.xml that was in the cfusion jrun server. This is
the Cf/jrun instance associated with the default website configured in my
IIS manager.
Have you verified the port number in flex-enterprise-services.xml?
I have tried. I looked in the flex-enterprise-services.xml file, but I do
not see a port number, I am not sure which element is supposed to have one
and whether I should be seing one or not. I access my defalut website with
http://localhost without a portnumber. I've tested the CF code with the
following url: http://localhost/CFIDE/samples/Phones/CF/test.cfm.
So what port number should I be checking in the
flex-enterprise-services.xml?
Thanks
