Re: [flexcoders] How can I show validation error message with ActionScript progrmming?

[michael keirnan]

the errorString property of UIComponent causes the red borders and
rollover error tip. errorString is set by the default validation
listener when it gets errors.

so you'll need to do something like this:

  - write a validation listener that does not set errorString, but
instead presents the error how you like

  - set the listener property of your validators to point at your new
listener (your listener could extend UIComponent
 if you want to easily drop one in your MXML pages, but it does not
have to be)

one thing to be careful of: the default flex validation system has
internal knowledge of data bindings. that is, you point a validator at
a model object, and the default validation listener automagically knows
what UIComponent to associate with errors. your listener does not have
this knowledge, so if you do need to associate errors with fields you
have to declare or configure them somehow. it sounds like you may not
care about this association.

  Hi~
  
I want to show a validation error messgae with ActionScript.
  
I general, if there is invalid data in form with validator, user can
see the 
error message(ErrorTip) when he rollover the formItem.
  
But, my customer want to show this error message without mouse rollOver.
  
Do you have any idea?

Re: [flexcoders] Setting Text Property of Label Control Dynamically

[michael keirnan]

it looks like you want to use data binding here. in your mxml you can
do this:



and comment out this line in your AS:

    //lblListValue.text = strSize;

if you haven't already, definitely check out the sections in the Flex
User Guide that talk about data binding for more background. the Flex
explorer sample app is also very useful to understand the building
blocks available to flex coders.

Re: [flexcoders] binding error - from Flex?

[michael keirnan]

also, if you run mxmlc or compc against your source tree the generated
files are placed right in your source tree. (perhaps obvious if one
thinks about it, but i did not think about it until it bit me). this
can lead to various problems during the typical development process:
edit-compile-test-curse-repeat.

The generated files I am talking about are under "

are several folders with generated names. It is safe to delete them.

If you get the 32k error on one server but not another, that really
sounds like a boundary condition.  Try running the one with the error
using the ?debug=true request parameter.  This causes debug code to get
generated into the app and has, in the past allowed us to continue.

Tracy - thanks for the suggestion. My problem is that I'm not really
changing anything, just making a copy of the whole app folder, renaming
it,
and trying to compile it again from the new folder - so I don't really
know
where to put the extra code.

I'm ready to try the file deletion suggestion, but need more info. I'm
running Flex locally using Tomcat, so I have generated files in my local

project folder and in my local server folder. Which ones do I delete?
Both?
Do I leave the libs folders alone? And - most important - is there any
danger in doing this or any precautions I should take?

But usually, 10-15 more lines of code gets me over the hump.

If you believe you app is as refactored as is reasonable, give this a
try.

Re: [flexcoders] the difference between List.getItemAt and List.getChildAt

[michael keirnan]

the two APIs are not intended to be similar, although perhaps the names 
themselves might lead one to think they are related at first glance.

getItemAt() returns the specified item from the list's data provider. 
getChildAt() is inherited from View which is a base class that provides 
containment semantics. so MXML components that can have other MXML 
components within them extend View.

Re: [flexcoders] Acessing a class

[michael keirnan]

from the code fragments below it looks like you never assign the 
"objPropostaBusca" variable to an instance of the class you want. it 
depends on the rest of your app and what you're trying to do of course, 
but something like this might work:


   var objPropostaBusca:as_PropostaBusca = new as_PropostaBusca();

[flexcoders] Re: Inserting a blank row in the middle of a datagrid.

[Michael Keirnan]

if you have a look at the properties of DataGrid in the docs (like
rowHeight) you'll see various ways to adjust how rows and columns are
displayed, including substituing your own rowRenderer if you
want to get fancy.

generally it is better to adjust properties that control
presentation as opposed to faking data to force presentation, but
if you -really- want a blank row you could try inserting a row
whose values are whitespace strings.

Re: generating ActionScript doc (ala javadoc)

[Michael Keirnan]

thanks for the pointer. i'm experimenting with NaturalDocs now. it
appears to be a very well considered tool. as you say, it is very easy
to format doc comments since it is so  natural. heh.

a minor note (or maybe nit) is that with all its flexibility the
javadoc @param tag style doesn't seem to fly. or maybe i'm missing
something. not a huge deal.

all in all a great tool and the price is certainly reasonable.

apologies in advance if this has been asked and answered. i searched

i'm curious what folks are doing for generating documentation for
