[flexcoders] DSErrorHint

[Romeo Obane]

Hi to All,

 

We are currently developing an Image Gallery Application. We have a fluorine
service as our gateway to .Net. The developed application is working for a
few weeks now, until today we encountered an error regarding the
DSErrorHint, I've got some ideas about it but still can't figure it out how
to trace the bug and solved it.

 

Here is the specific error message:  

 

ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property DSErrorHint not found on String and
there is no default value.

at mx.rpc::AsyncRequest/acknowledge()

at
::NetConnectionMessageResponder/NetConnectionChannel.as$40:NetConnectionMess
ageResponder::resultHandler()

at mx.messaging::MessageResponder/result()

 

I will appreciate any suggestions and comments.

 

Thanks,

Romeo

[flexcoders] Migration Issues from Flex 2 into Flex 3 Beta 2

[Romeo Obane]

Greetings!

Yesterday, I integrated my flex application from Flex 2 to Flex 3 Beta
2, I've seen some strange
changes, here are the following:

* My Flex Application size before is around 500k, but now 986k.

* In my library which uses Cairngorm:

 It finds the "CairngormMessages.properties",

 I've found a temporary Solution and still knowing the real issues:
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Talk:Cairngorm

  - I added in the source folder of library
"locale\en_US\CairngormMessages.properties" file
  - And I added to library compiler arguments
"-locale en_US -source-path=locale/{locale} -allow-source-path-overlap=true"


I will appreciate any small or big ideas to this kind of issues
especially in reducing my flex application size.
Thanks,
Romeo

Re: [flexcoders] Migration Issues from Flex 2 into Flex 3 Beta 2

[Romeo Obane]

Oh, I've found it already.

I do understand why my application file size is bigger now in flex 3 bet 2.
Here is the article
http://www.buntel.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/10/15/The-Export-Release-Wizard.

Thank you Carlos for your hint.

Re: [flexcoders] Migration Issues from Flex 2 into Flex 3 Beta 2

[Romeo Obane]

Thank you for your fast reply!

I've tried that one as well, but it doesn't returns to my original
application size when I'm in Flex 2.

I've read some articles about Flex 3 migration, but I haven't found an
explanation on what are the things that adds up to my application that gives
me a big file size.

[flexcoders] Flex 3 and Cairngorm2.2.1 Issue

[Romeo Obane]

Hi to all!

I added to my Flex 3 library path the Cairngorm 2.2.1 swc and it is finding
the "CairngormMessages.properties" unlike with Flex 2.

I've found a temporary Solution in
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Talk:Cairngorm

  - I added in the source folder of library
"locale\en_US\CairngormMessages.properties" file

  - And I added to library compiler arguments
"-locale en_US -source-path=locale/{locale} -allow-source-path-overlap=true"

I believe that this solution is not good and I would like to ask if
you can give me a idea regarding the cause of the issue
and the possible solutions for this.

I will appreciate your reply.

Thanks!

Yes, you are right, but in other hand, I need to know the maximum image file

[flexcoders] Testing with Flex Framework RSL's

[Romeo Obane]

Hi,

I've read many articles regarding RSL's and I'm quite interested especially
in Flex Framework RSL.

We have now a Flex Application that has Flex Framework merged, and now I
tested separating it through RSL.

I would like to test the RSL, and I was thinking of deleting the two
frameworks ( swz & swf ) in the deployment folder ( bin-release ) will raise
an error and find for the missing framework(s), but it's not what I
expected, it's still loads the whole application successfully.

I have the latest Flash Player and as what I've read that the signed
framework (swz) will be cached into the player when first loaded, I'm
thinking of the successful load of our application maybe it's because there
is already a signed flex framework cached into the player. One more thing
also, can we clear the cache in Flash Player?

I'm quite new and curious about this, and any enlightenment will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks :)

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Testing with Flex Framework RSL's

[Romeo Obane]

Thank you so much for your info's, it really helps me to prove into myself
regarding Flex RSL's especially separating its framework.

I really appreciate it.

You mean changing the Application's or Data Grid default background?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: row colors in AdvancedDataGrid

[Romeo Obane]

One of the simple ways to change your Application Background default color,
is thru your css. Below is the sample codes.

e.g. 1

// For gradient colors

Application
{
backgroundGradientAlphas: 1.0, 0.59;
backgroundGradientColors: #00, #4D91BF;
}

e.g. 1
// For Solid colors

Application
{
 background-color: blue;
}


Regarding the Grid, I tried the same way that you did, but it does occupy
the whole width and height of my application space.
Did you placed your grid inside the container aside of the main application
itself?

Maybe if you could share some of the codes that could help me understand
more.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: row colors in AdvancedDataGrid

[Romeo Obane]

Oh, thanks for clearing more your concern.

One more thing, your width for each column is fixed?

If yes, we can easily set the width of each column to be flexible of the app
width, BUT if it's dynamic (depends on the data size), it could be more
tricky since the grid column usually don't have percent width.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: row colors in AdvancedDataGrid

[Romeo Obane]

If the column of your grid is fixed, then it would be okay, we just need to
know how many columns do you have.

I don't know if this simple code below could help, try to run and see.

http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"
horizontalScrollPolicy="off">

[flexcoders] Strange UI behaviour after updated my SDK to 3.4.1 Stable build

[Romeo Obane]

Greetings,

In the code below, you can have a LinkBar that depends it's link menus from
the ViewStack and the second menu is somehow I set into disabled.

eg.




   
   



OUTPUT:
*
*
*Menu 1   *
*
*
*Menu 2*
*
*
*
*
This just work perfectly from my 3.2 SDK until I updated into 3.4.1, the
disabled "Menu 2" is still enabled and found this one quite strange.
It's somehow clear that there's something to do with my SDK update, would
like to ask of any ideas or things I need to check that affects this one?
Hope that my illustration above is clear.

Thanks a lot,
Romeo

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Link Bar behaves differently after SDK 3.4.1 update

[Romeo Obane]

It's true as I also manage to compare the LinkBar specially to it's extended
class NavBar but currently I just used 3.3 from the Milestone build as the
Linkbar just behaves well in there.

Thanks for the recommendation and will try that one.

Guess because you're already in a Flex Library Project :)

Honestly in my practice, I just delete the "libs" folder and directly
referring to my Library Project.
