Re: [flexcoders] Charles Proxy, Flex, and ColdFusion 9
Hi Bill, I didn't see a reply on the list but the developer of Charles Proxy is pretty responsive. Maybe record a session and send it to him? Michael *From:* BillF bill.frank...@bayer.com *Date:* April 24, 2012 12:47 AM *To:* flexcoders@yahoogroups.com *Subject:* [flexcoders] Charles Proxy, Flex, and ColdFusion 9 Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with getting the SQLQuery information in AMF response header with Charles Proxy after upgrading to ColdFusion 9. It works correctly on ColdFusion 8, with the exact same debugging settings, but although the header comes shows up, it does not have any of the child objects in it. I had thought that the JSON Serialization issue, that was fixed in ColdFusion 9.0.1 Hot Fix 2, would fix it...but alas, it did not.

Re: [flexcoders] Moving a viewStack through actionscript
Hey there Wally, You can get access to the currently selected viewstack, and also set it, through selectedIndex. So your initial declaration would be like mx:ViewStack id=questionVS etc... selectedIndex=0 click=nextQuestion() and in your function nextQuestion you can increment the selectedIndex. I'd have to check but I think you can find the number of items in your viewStack with numChildren. That would give you your max value to finish your quiz or handle the end how you would like. You can find more about what you can do with viewstacks in the docs: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/containers/ViewStack.html Hope that helps!

Re: [flexcoders] Moving a viewStack through actionscript
If I am understanding your code correctly, you actually want to call
test1(parent).checkSingle instead of testMod. The reason is because you
are instantiating a brand new, and unrelated, test1 component with
public var testMod:test1 = new test1();
You might be able to do
public var testMod:test1 = test1(parent);
casting the variable to the type test1.
If it's a simple app you are working on, you can do this kind of tightly
coupled design. By that I mean, your question1 component knows about
your test1 component. If it's a more complex app though, you may want to
look at decoupling your app. Otherwise this app will quickly become
inflexible and harder to maintain as it grows.
In this case, you could set up your question components to dispatch an
event that your test1 then listens to. That way question1 doesn't have
to be directly connected to parent.
I hope that makes sense!

Re: [flexcoders] Moving a viewStack through actionscript
Hi Wally, sorry I missed the hierarchy there. You have checkSingle on
the module and not the Viewstack. In that case, you should be able to do
parent.parent.checkSingle and leave out the cast as test1. So
public var testMod:Object = parent.parent;
The last one failed because it was trying to convert a viewstack into a
test1 which of course isn't a viewstack. But I'm not sure about this one
because the parent.parent is a module. You could also forgo using the
testMod variable and in your click declaration instead of
click=testMod.checkSingle(group1.selectedValue)
use
click=parent.parent.checkSingle(group1.selectedValue) /
Hopefully that'll work for you.
If you have a little time to invest, and if you may be doing more Flex
apps in the future, even though this one is not going to be a full-on
huge app, I'd learn about dispatching custom events. It's not that
complicated but it takes some time to understand. It would save some of
the hassle you're trying to do of course at the expense of a new and
different kind of hassle. :-)

Re: [flexcoders] Architecture / Design question...
Wow yeah that would depend on a lot of things. Some thoughts that help me narrow down prospects like that: Am I doing all of the subcomponents in MXML? If so I could manage it with States perhaps using addChild. Pass the state in on instantiation/show/creationComplete, etc. Am I doing all of the subcomponents in AS3? Then I can dynamically instantiate things on the fly depending on those requirements. Whether or not I actually use the states tags, are their actual states with shared components? If so I might make a set of flags. If flag x is present, add component x, or if y is present, add y. But it depends on how detailed it needs to be, and how convoluted the solution might be. It might be better not to put it ALL in one component, but have one component that loads subsections as well. It all depends on what you need. And, just a caveat, I am not a Flex guru. They might pine in with much better solutions. Michael tchredeemed wrote: I have a situation in which I am currently using a very ugly set up to get the job done, but I want to change this (will explain) and I am looking for some insight. The process is this. A user gets to a piece of our app and they are presented with some options. The options are very different depending on which route they take to get there. For instance, they might see a checkbox about saving a piece of their file as a note. They might see a set of radio buttons to order different quantities (in this case the price can change depending on which radio button is selected [the price is on the same screen]). They might see a mailing address or an email address, depending on the medium of the item they are purchasing. Basically, the options vary greatly, so I currently have a different custom component depending on which they are using. I want to be able to use one component and have different options on that component, but I am not sure of an efficient way to do it. I know this is random and probably not easily answered without a specific understanding of the system, but I thought I would ask :)

Re: [flexcoders] flexbuilder3 beta3
Now the guessing begins... with only 90 days... and this being the final public beta release... maybe it will be time to actually pay after this round. Hopefully we'll know a bit before the expiration. It looks like the pricing may not be bad... but timing is pretty important with some budgets (like ours).

The problem I am having is the Y axis is dependent on the scheduling timeline- ie- if the entry being created is for tomorrow it puts it on the next row, 2 days out on the third row etc. What I want is each row to be based on the channel (channel ID probably) and NOT the timeline. so, if I create a program that starts at 7PM for channel 5 (id=5) I want it to be on the 5th row. I cannot find the controller in the AS files that I can change to make the row dependent on channel ID and NOT the scheduled time. I hope this is clear.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Local storage of password
Is this a Flex app on a web page? I am not sure about an AIR project but with Flex and webservices, you still have the benefit of cookies and sessions. I am working a project that uses a standard web page login that gets the user logged in and the session started. After that it moves to the Flex app. The user doesn't have to log in again unless the session expires which is determined by the server. Subsequent calls to webservices maintain that information. I am using Django (Python) but it should be similar for other backends. Are your webservices within the same domain? If not, are you able to pass a token for authentication?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: yahoomaps POI marker click event, htmltext asfunction
Yeah the POI marker click event is fine and quite useful. I think it was
after reading your post Anupam. :-) However after that, I can't trigger
anything in the Cairngorm app. I even tried to make a function with the
original as2map.fla that would simply trigger a new POIMarkerClick event
with data passed from the asfunction call within the marker. That hasn't
worked yet either.
I also tried to use FlashInterface which, by itself, should work.
However it blocks the communication of the YahooMap communication kit as is.
Basically, similar to Anupam's change to the code, I'd like to add an
htmlTextClick function which can be can be called via asfunction.
Something like:
function onHTMLLinkClick(ev:Object) {
var rtnObj:String = new String();
EIBuffer.addCall({method:swfDomId + .onHTMLLinkClick + id,
data:rtnObj});
}
and where it sets up listeners in the mapClip object
myMap.addEventListener('onHTMLLinkClick', onHTMLLinkClick);
and then in the description of a POI Marker have
description:a href=\'asfunction:onHTMLLinkClick,someString\'Click
me.../a
or would this have to be:
description:a
href=\'asfunction:_parent.onHTMLLinkClick,someString\'Click me.../a
and in the Flex project
mapEventDispather.addEventListener('onHTMLLinkClick', htmlLinkClickHandler);
So the link would trigger the new event which would call the function in
the loaded as2map.swf which would then trigger the new event which would
be picked up by Flex, etc.
So is this possible? Since this function isn't in the original API, is
it possible to add it this way? It looks like the .addCall would add it
to the methodQueue array in the ExternalInterfaceBuffer.as file. Here's
to hoping...
And Benoit, thanks for the tip about adding the setMapSize snippet in
the MapController.as. It sized fine when first loading but that could be
VERY useful when dynamically resizing.
Thank you to you both. I'll give these a shot and see if there is any
progress with it.

It's a long shot, but I was just wondering if it's been done, and
eagerly anticipating a true AS3 map component.
The new AS3 event: protocol of course isn't recognized by the Flash

Re: [flexcoders] Re: yahoomaps POI marker click event, htmltext asfunction
Hi there Anupam,
Actually I figured out a way yesterday. The asfunction link calls a
function in the map which then triggers an event in the AS2 map which is
passed through a new EIBuffer.addCall which is received by a new event
handler in MapEventDispatcher.as. The string parameter of the asfunction
is passed through as a data object and used in Flex and every thing is
dandy. The only limitation I ran into was the length of text usable with
asfunction. I believe I saw somewhere that it was 116 characters as a
limit because of hrefs in general, but it's OK. It works now. :-P
Many thanks!

See that asfunction is not supported in Action Script 3.0 and the Flex
2.0 is using Flash 9 which in turn using AS3 so i think its not that
straight forward to write asfunction and handling the event..
Although yahoo map component is written in as2 but we are consuming it
in as3.. My instinct says that there will be some other way that we
can handle the link click event..
Working on it..

Re: [flexcoders] E4X Syntax with XMLList
Hey there Bruce, For that one I believe you would need something like x = cbData.menu.(@label == 'M')[EMAIL PROTECTED]; and you might need to do a .toString() or even cast it to a Number depending on what you need to do with it.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: yahoomaps POI marker click event, htmltext asfunction
Yeah the POI marker click event is fine and quite useful. I think it was
after reading your post Anupam. :-) However after that, I can't trigger
anything in the Cairngorm app. I even tried to make a function with the
original as2map.fla that would simply trigger a new POIMarkerClick event
with data passed from the asfunction call within the marker. That hasn't
worked yet either.
I also tried to use FlashInterface which, by itself, should work.
However it blocks the communication of the YahooMap communication kit as is.
Basically, similar to Anupam's change to the code, I'd like to add an
htmlTextClick function which can be can be called via asfunction.
Something like:
function onHTMLLinkClick(ev:Object) {
var rtnObj:String = new String();
EIBuffer.addCall({method:swfDomId + .onHTMLLinkClick + id, data:rtnObj});
}
and where it sets up listeners in the mapClip object
myMap.addEventListener('onHTMLLinkClick', onHTMLLinkClick);
and then in the description of a POI Marker have
description:a href=\'asfunction:onHTMLLinkClick,someString\'Click
me.../a
or would this have to be:
description:a
href=\'asfunction:_parent.onHTMLLinkClick,someString\'Click me.../a
and in the Flex project
mapEventDispather.addEventListener('onHTMLLinkClick', htmlLinkClickHandler);
So the link would trigger the new event which would call the function in
the loaded as2map.swf which would then trigger the new event which would
be picked up by Flex, etc.
So is this possible? Since this function isn't in the original API, is
it possible to add it this way? It looks like the .addCall would add it
to the methodQueue array in the ExternalInterfaceBuffer.as file. Here's
to hoping...
And Benoit, thanks for the tip about adding the setMapSize snippet in
the MapController.as. It sized fine when first loading but that could be
VERY useful when dynamically resizing.
Thank you to you both. I'll give these a shot and see if there is any
progress with it.

I think we’ve tried to play around with the POIMarkerClick event.
But it was only dispatched when you first click on the marker to open it.
Further click on a link in the htmlText description was not generating
any POIMarkerClick events, so we could not catch anything.
But may be, we did something wrong, we have to check it out again…

Re: [flexcoders] Re: yahoomaps POI marker click event, htmltext asfunction
One more tidbit, using the XPanel logger, logging this from the map,
getting it's path (_root.mapClip in this case) I can now call functions
from the map itself from within the marker.
However I am not yet able to register a new event. I may just hijack one
of the current ones and pass a new fake object that will let my Flex app
know it's my custom call.
So, any takers on registering a new event with the yahoomap component? :-)
If that works, then it's a hack, but a usable hack. Eventually true AS3
map components will be available so this kind of thing won't be as
necessary... keeping fingers crossed. :-)
Thanks for the inspiration all,

Re: [flexcoders] Solved - Re: yahoomaps POI marker click event, htmltext asfunction
Just got the text to pass through as well.
In the end, I added this to the myMap event listener setup
//my custom event
myMap.addEventListener('onHtmlLinkClicked', onHtmlLinkClicked);
I didn't add a callback there as I don't need to access it through this
event from Flex.
I then added this function (after onMinZoom)
function onHtmlLinkClicked(data:String) { // accepts the string from
asfunction
var rtnObj:Object = new Object();
rtnObj['data'] = data; // makes a data attribute of the object
passing in the string data
// make a new EIBuffer call for this action to pass through
EIBuffer.addCall({method:swfDomId + .onHtmlLinkClicked + id,
data:rtnObj});
}
In MapEventDispatcher.as I added
to the Event metatags:
[Event(name=onHtmlLinkClicked, type=MapEvent)]
in the setListeners function
ExternalInterface.addCallback(onHtmlLinkClicked + UUID,
onHtmlLinkClicked);
Though that may not be necessary since I am not using the callback...
just in case though...
Then added a new function to dispatch the MapEvent
private function onHtmlLinkClicked(ev:Object):void {
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent('onHtmlLinkClicked', ev));
}
then in my Cairngorm app, in mapInit added
mapEventDispatcher.addEventListener('onHtmlLinkClicked',
htmlLinkClickHandler);
and within htmlLinkClickHandler, the string from the asfunction is
available via the ev.lastResult.data.
Cool. I think that was all I did. THAT was an education. Thanks again
for your help!

Re: [flexcoders] Re: encode +
Hi there Jesse, Three questions then. Did encodeURIComponent solve the problem or is it still causing trouble? Are you using the XML encoding for sending the request from an HTTP request? If you are using a standard HTTP request it does a url form encoding on everything before it goes out I believe. Are you using the built in Base64Encoder class or your own code? I've heard of a non-documented built-in utility class for base64 encode/decoding. Just curious about what you were using. Thanks, Michael Doug Lowder wrote: Yes, that's it exactly and Adobe got it right. The + is listed as a non-encoded character in the docs for encodeURI(). So what needs to be done is call encodeURIComponent() on the substring, which *will* encode the + since it isn't a non-encoded character for that function, and then tack that onto an encodeURI()'d string. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com, Paul DeCoursey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think the problem is that the + should not be encoded. You must encode it before adding it to the URI. It is a reserved character and it has special meaning in certain places in the URI. It should not be encoded in those places. As a result I am speculating that an encode function will not encode it. An example of a special meaning is that it can be used in place of spaces in a URL, it is just as common to use %20 for a space, but a + is more readable.

Re: [flexcoders] SWF Loading and Query Strings
I don't know if this is related, but can you confirm with an HTTP
debugger or perhaps Firefox's LiveHTTPHeaders extentions what it is
trying to load? Flex URL encodes requests going out so it may correctly
load the SWF, but everything else may be encoded to something like
foo.swf%3Ftest%3Datest
I'm not sure if you're experiencing this though, but just thought it
might be worth a try if it hasn't been solved yet.

test is a variable in the swf that then outputs to trace. The problem

Does Flex strip these

If Flex does strip off the vars to the SWF then is the only recourse
LocalConnection?

It seems when your loadMainImage event is being triggered, you are
parsing the data from the XML file correctly actually. But what you want
to do is pull the unique data from the item being clicked.
Is the list of images across the bottom a horizontal list? If it is, and
if the datasource used to fill that list is the same XML list, then what
you may want to try is for your horizontalList set a function to respond
to the change event:
mx:HorizontalList
id=thumbScroller
source={ yourDataSource }
change=loadMainImage // call the loadMainImage function when the
selected item in the horizontal list changes
/
Then in your function,
public function loadMainImage(event:Event):void {
//pull the data from the selected item of the thumb scroller as it
has been populated by the XML data source
image_name_txt.text = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
mainImage.source = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
I'm not sure if you are using the HorizontalList for your thumb scroller
on the bottom, just a guess.
Hopefully that helps a little,

My problem right now is that I don't seen to be able to get the main

I SEEM to be loading the entire array...which of course makes no
sense. The function that does this is the following:
public function loadMainImage(event:Event):void {
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm trying to tell both the image_name_text and the Main_mage to load
what would be the current text/title and the current image based on
the secections involved.
I'll give the entire block if it helps:

I have migrated everything to my development machine (Vista is rather
Nifta!). If this code provided doesn't help I will upload the
application to my make-shift server till my real server gets back to
the shop.
I am also very worried that I don't get the concepts Tracy and others
abide by - not referencing the result directly, but doing so by using
a ResultHandler, because my understanding is without such, you can't
debug. I just don't get that part at all.
Does anyone know why my loadMainImage method seems to be passing both
an array of ALL text and, I am GUESSING, instead of reading the single
image as it should, it might be trying to pass the entire group of
images to the image, which would explain why it gives me a broken
image...but DOES seem to want to connect...just doing so incorrectly.

I'm getting desperate. I can't do this by myself, and I'm sinking into
a depression because of it. Outside the fact that this venture has
cost me over $25,000 so far (I'm a secretary, we are talking about a
year's pay for me into this project..., and I am getting nowhere, I'm
getting very depressed. I have ADHD, so please understand I am only
asking for help because I really, really, need it. I have absolutely
no desire to make money. I just want to make something beautiful for
my images and to give it to the world when it's done. I KNOW my
project has value to that end.
I won't bother you guys again if I have overstepped the limits of
'asking for help'. I'll just try on my own for as long as I can stay
sane with it, and failing that, I might have no choice but to put all
this money and my desire to build this behind me...I have no idea what
I will do if that happens.
I'll see if I can move this to my make-shift server so you can see it

No problem. I know the pain, believe me. I'm working on an app now as I am starting out with Flex and decided to dive in with Cairngorm for it. There is definitely a learning curve but it really helps with the separation. Glad it worked out for you there. Michael shawn.gibson wrote: Michael: You did it! Thanks. And what makes it both wonderful for me and also very frustrating (but just in a DOH! way) is that I totally understand what you did. I guess I've lost a bit of perspective here, and need to step back a bit, because even I should have been able to figure that out...I really, really appreciate your help. This is the first time in months this part has ever worked. Thanks very much:) I owe you. I wish I could learn how to figure out the correct way to use result handlers, but for now, I am very happy. I know the proper way to do this is via proxiesAS3 if you want it to scale and have any kind of separation (remove the model from the main app and give yourself a chance at debugging etc.), but it's one step at a time for me:) Shawn (with gratitude)
Re: [flexcoders] Model and Forms
Hi Luis,
It's been a few days so perhaps you already have a solution to this. I'm
also just learning myself so I haven't tested this sample code.
If it's something that is just defined in the model, and won't change,
then it doesn't need to be bound. You can make a constant in your model
if you need it application-wide, and then use that value when you define
the TextInput.
In the model:
public const TEXT_MAX_CHARS : Number = 10; // This is if you need a
constant and don't want it to change of course
public var textMaxChars : Number = 10; // if you want it to be changeable
in MXML
mx:TextInput maxChars={ model.TEXT_MAX_CHARS } /
or if you want it on the validator
mx:StringValidator maxLength={ model.TEXT_MAX_CHARS } /
etc.
Perhaps one of the more experienced folks will supply an answer. If not,
hope it helps!

Luis Eduardo wrote:
Is there a way to bind the maxChars of a TextInput on an entry of my

the length of the data should be defined in the model, i think. (not

Re: [flexcoders] PopupButton, newbie can't get selected data
Yeah I see what you mean. It seems like you should be able to pull the
currently selected item like from a drop down list. It looks like you
would have to make a variable to capture the data from the return event.
So it could be something like
private var selectedItem : Object = new Object();
private function actionSelect(event:MenuEvent):void {
selectedItem.data = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
selectedItem.label = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
private function okClicked():void { // Event handler for the OK button.
Alert.show(fname= +fname.text +
\nday= +day.selectedValue+ +day.selection.label +
\naction= + *selectedItem.data* + + *selectedItem.label*);
PopUpManager.removePopUp(this);
}
I haven't actually tried out the code but that seems to work
conceptually. It seems like it would be useful to be able to pull the
selected data directly but the docs don't mention that as an option. It
only talks about the itemClick and click events.
Hope that helps,
Michael

[flexcoders] HTTPService where parameter has hypen or underscore and bypassing automatic form encoding of data with bytearray?
Hello all, I am using Flex to access an API that has parameters with a hyphen or an underscore in the name of the parameter. If the parameter name has a hyphen, Flexbuilder (2.0.1) does not compile with a syntax error. Putting the name part in quotes causes the hyphen to be form encoded If it has an underscore, it compiles fine, but the name parameter becomes form encoded and so the hyphen is no longer passed as a hyphen. For example: sample-param: sample value, -- causes syntax error 'sample-param': sample value, -- compiles OK but becomes sample%2Dparam which API doesn't recognize sample_param: sample value -- compiles OK but becomes sample%5Fparam which API doesn't recognize Using myQueryObject['sample-param'] has the same effect as the above of course. One other related issue is passing a delimiter in the value. For example: sample-param: val1:val2:val3 -- colon is encoded to %3A which API doesn't recognize. Is there a way to pass this data directly without going through this kind of encoding? Perhaps I would need to use a byte array or something like that? I'll start digging in that direction. Thanks in advance, Michael

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Best way to communicate with database
Web services may be the easiest to integrate with Flex since they are consumed so easily. I believe Zope/Plone can essentially expose or render it's data as a web service as well. It may also depend on how you are organizing your code for these kinds of projects. Migrating from one technology to another in parts can be... challenging. If there is a consistent framework between the two that may help. For Flex, a popular one is Cairngorm, as it helps you do the MVC separation in your development. Plone seems to do that as well since you have your data sources and your rendered views, etc. Essentially then you would just be changing your view as you move it to Flex. Just thinking out loud hoping it helps. :-) Michael taprokop wrote: I was just wondering if you found any resolution to your question.
