Title: Help to create an object instance dynamically










Hi Michel,

 

Are you referencing
this class elsewhere? If not, you need to in order for flex to compile it.

 

A simple reference
like:

 

com.datasul.framework.custom.view.LoanForm;

 

Might do the trick. Not
sure about the rest of the code. You might want to try using eval() to get a
reference to the class.

 

Jim

Subject: [flexcoders] Help to
create an object instance dynamically



 

Hi
all ! 

I'm
trying to get a component instance using the following: 

   
    var
workspace:Workspace = Workspace.getInstance(); 

   
    var name:String =
"com.datasul.framework.custom.view.LoanForm"; 
   
    var type:Function =
ClassUtil.findClass(name); 
   
    
   
    wkt = Workspace.getInstance();

   
    wkt.createChild(type,name);


Where:

-
Workspace: is an object extending mx.containers.Canvas; 

I
suppose that retriving an Object using ClassUtil I would get an object
instance. But it 
doesn't
work in this fashion. So, I still tried to use
wkt.createChild(type.call(),name), 
however
no success. 

Did
anybody has an idea to create my object dynamically and add it to a container ?


Regards,

Michel.

[flexcoders] Cyclical reference error

2005-10-12 Thread Jim Phelan










Hello,

 

We’ve been getting a strange error recently

 

When compiling for the first time after starting JRUN /
Flex, we get an error similar to:

 

Cyclical reference to class…. Two MXML Files cannot
reference each other as child tags.

 

As far as I can tell, no MXML files are referencing each
other.

 

The really strange thing is that we are able to correct the
issue by commenting out the MXML for the “offending” class,
compiling, and then uncommenting and compiling again. Flex doesn’t
complain at all and compiles fine until the next time we restart the server.

 

Has anyone experienced this? Is there anything that could be
causing this or that can be done about it?

 

Best.

 

Jim

[flexcoders] Licensing and dev server compilation

2005-11-03 Thread Jim Phelan










Hello all,

 

We have a client who has a Flex license for their server. We
only wish for the compiled SWF to be deployed on their server, so they don’t
have access to the MXML / AS source files. My question is: is there a way to compile
our application on either a) our unlicensed development server or b) a development
server using their license code (so there would at some times be multiple servers
running the same license)? We are trying to avoid uploading source to their server
for compilation.

 

Any advice is appreciated,

 

Jim

[flexcoders] Case insensitive sorting on DataGrid

2005-11-09 Thread Jim Phelan










Hi,

 

I’m sure that this must have come up a million times
before, but I couldn’t find anything on the issue so I thought I’d
ask here.

 

Has anyone come up with a good way to do case insensitive
sorting in a DataGrid? Is creating a hidden column for each sortable value the
way to go? Perhaps a custom sort method? I understand there are some
performance issues with the Flash Player’s string sorting, so I’d
like to learn the most efficient way of handling this.

 

Thanks,

 

Jim

[flexcoders] Using the ColorPicker component in Flex 1.5 extras

2005-11-12 Thread Jim Phelan














Hi all,

 

I’d like to use the ColorPicker component that ships
in the extras folder of Flex 1.5.

 

Although the readme states: “The colorpicker folder
contains: The ActionScript source, the .PNG

and .AS files, along with the compiled component swc.”
I don’t have the SWC file.

 

I decided to do the logical thing, and compile it using Flash
MX 2004. I created a component, associated the class, set the classpath to flex
classes, and exported the swc. 

 

Then, I ran swcrepair :

It’s probably something simple. Ideas, anyone?

RE: [flexcoders] Using the ColorPicker component in Flex 1.5 extras

2005-11-12 Thread Jim Phelan










Well I gave up with trying to compile it
in Flash, as there were too many compiler errors. Works fine with Flex. 

 

Can anyone tell me how to compile
components in Flash when required classes are missing? In this case, mx.styles.CSSStyleSheet
doesn’t come with Flex Classes (flexforflash.zip) and the compiler throws
a bunch of other nasty messages about the UIObject methods createClassObjectWithStyles,

RE: [flexcoders] Accordion Header Icons - Changing during runtime

2005-11-17 Thread Jim Phelan










Hey Niklas,

 

I’ve done this before. I’m
accomplishing it with a custom class for the header, but if all you need is the
icon you should be able to use something like accd.getHeaderAt(0).icon = “iconLinkage”
Since AccordianHeader is a subclass of Button, it should work just fine.

RE: [flexcoders] Accordion Header Icons - Changing during runtime

The custom class might not benefit you (it
has some other features like a close button), but try this:

 

Button(accd.getHeaderAt(0)).icon

Unfortunately I tried:

accd.getHeaderAt(0).icon

and it doesn't work.  It says
"icon" does not exist.  I think that's
because getHeaderAt() returns a UIComponent
object.

Would you be willing to share your custom header
class?

Thanks

RE: [flexcoders] ComboBox and Icons

2005-11-17 Thread Jim Phelan










Hey Andre,

 

I just had to address this earlier this
week, and I had to write two custom subclasses to make it work. If you’re
interested I might be able to clean them up and share it, but it might take a
day or two to get around to it.

 

Jim

RE: [flexcoders] Accordion Header Icons - Changing during runtime

2005-11-18 Thread Jim Phelan










Hey Niklas,

 

Here’s a quick and dirty example:

 





 



















 

Naturally you’d need files named
plus.png and minus.png to make it work.

 

Let me know if this helps.

Hi Jim,

I gave that a shot and still to no avail. 
Still get the error:

"There is no property with the name
'icon'."

Oh well.  Perhaps I need to figure out these
custom header classes!

Thanks for the help.

Cheers

RE: [flexcoders] Combining graphic and programmatic themes - a better way?

2005-09-05 Thread Jim Phelan










Brian, thanks for the response.

 

I found that in “About theme
limitations” at http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/flex_docs_en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Flex_Documentation&file=0577.htm

 

I tried adding the skin through Flash
authoring by attaching the class to a symbol in the usual way, but it did not
work out. I got some compiler errors (since I was referencing some container
classes that aren’t included in the flexforflash library) and ran SWCRepair,
but the theme didn’t take effect. Flash also generated a ton of ASI’s
for every dependent class of the class I subclassed, increasing the swc file
size pretty dramatically. I’m not sure if exclude.xml will work when
exporting a component, or if there might be a better way of accomplishing this.

 

I later realized that simply referencing
the class name anywhere in AS makes the theme work just fine, so this is a
satisfactory solution for now. I assume I could add it to a RSL as well.

 

How would one add the swf skin using
compc? I didn’t spend much time on it, but I couldn’t find a way to
add swf’s to swc’s using compc. Perhaps there is a way to add
classes to an already created swc?

 

Best,

 

Jim

Combining graphic and programmatic themes - a better way?



 

Hi Jim, that's a pretty interesting
solution that technically should work, but the catalog.xml has many exceptions,
caveats, and magical properties.  I would suggest staying away from it if
you can.  Did you try just adding both the programmatic and graphical
skins to the SWC (through compc or Flash Authoring)?  I don't see any
real reason why you cannot add both of these to a SWC file.  Can you
tell me where this is in the documentation?  Thanks, Brian

Subject: [flexcoders] Combining
graphic and programmatic themes - a better way?

Hi all,

 

I’m new to the list and somewhat new to Flex
development.

 

I found this in the Macromedia documentation:

You cannot combine both programmatic skins and graphical
skins in a single SWC file.

 

After toying with it for a while, I found that by manually
editing the catalog.xml file in the swc and adding my swf of graphical elements
manually, I was able to accomplish what I wanted. Is there a more streamlined
solution to this? Has anyone created a utility to automate this? If not, is
there an interest in such a utility?

 

Best,

RE: [flexcoders] Remote objects and ASP

2005-09-07 Thread Jim Phelan










I don’t think there is a solution
for classic ASP other than web services. You should use Macromedia’s
Flash Remoting MX for .NET. You can tie a remote object into this by setting
the endpoint attribute to the uri of the flash gateway.

I'm looking for help I'm trying to get remote objects from an ASP

or even an XML template from a MS SQL Server. Can
it be done? Have you
accomplished it? Is there an example that I can
look at?
