[flexcoders] Performance Question: Which is faster e4x or object?
Has anyone really benchmarked this? It seems that when I return an http request as an Object my parse results are faster than trying to do a similar parse in e4x. This seems to be particularly true when the XML has structure than can be returned as an ArrayCollection vs assigning the same xml via e4x to an XMLListCollection. I'm curious as to what result format most people are using for their HttpRequest. Thanks! Wayne
[flexcoders] Re: Merge two XML documents
How about using an XSLT to take care of the merge for you? If this is a web app, that would probably be the best way. If you're writing a desktop app to be compiled under Zinc or Janus, you could easily do it with a custom DLL and then call your code in AS.

[flexcoders] Help with Deleting Tree Node---I've tried everything!
Howdy all
I've been searching and reading and trying just about every example I
can find to delete a tree node, but nothing seems to work. I've
looked at Peter Ent's code, but couldn't get that to work. There was
also a posting on the Adobe forums where someone was doing something
very similir to what I'm using and eventually got their to work, but
never posted how.
I'm using a modified version of the custom ITreeDataDescriptor example
that looks for items instead of children. My tree is being
populated with a highly nested arraycollection.
When it execute the removeChildAt function, it's using Splice and is
supposed to remove the 1st item after the index parameter, but nothing
happens. The tree dataprovider remains the same. If someone can give
me a hand and tell me what I'm doing wrong, I would be most
appreciative!
Below is the code I'm using:
public class ItemAsChildTreeRender implements ITreeDataDescriptor
//public class ItemAsChildTreeRender extends TreeItemRenderer

[flexcoders] Re: issue with progress bar loader becoming stuck
I've also tried a using a dispatchevent to a callLater which calls my recursive function. Still no progress bar until the recursive function completes. This isn't the first issue I've had with the callLater function either--it seems there may be some sort of bug with how it actually executes because for me, it always executes immediately after I call it. Anyway, doing what you suggest--using a break in the code--if my dispatchEvent (on Click) displays my ProgressBar, theres a break in the code. I then had it set up so that the ProgressBar would fire a call for the CreationComplete event to call my rescursion. So there's two steps before the recursion gets called and still no progress bar. I'd be more than happy to send you the code, because something definitely isn't right.

[flexcoders] Re: issue with progress bar loader becoming stuck
Hi Dan- Just to let you know you're not alone, I've been having issues with my progress bar not displaying at all. I've got code that is supposed to pop up my progress bar when the user clicks on a tree node. After that I dispatch an event that my tree node has been clicked and pass the data from my tree to a recurisve function. If I let the recursion execute, the progress bar doesn't load until the recursion is complete. If I take out the recursion, the progress bar loads fine. It seems there are some threading issues with Flex that prevent the progress bar from displaying properly during operations that are heavy on the CPU. I'd really like to hear someone from Adobe comment on this, though.

[flexcoders] Re: Auto-expand Treenodes
Depending on how you are calling that code, you may need to add a try catch block around it. I originally had my app loading XML data during the initialize process. It then fed that data directly into a tree. Since the tree had data right away, that line of code worked fine. I've recently changed things a bit so that the app loads with no XML data loaded. I was also getting the same eror you were until I put a try catch block around it. The auto expand code was getting called, but since there was no data in my tree, the try catch prevented any errors. You can also use: assemblyTree.expandChildrenOf(assemblyTree.selectedItem, true); to expand a specific node in the tree.

[flexcoders] Custom TreeItemRenderer to display a label followed by an icon/image?
Hi all... I've been playing around with the code that's been floating around to put render a checkbox next to each item in a tree control, but I'm not having any luck accomplishing the task of getting an image to display after a label in a tree control. I'm using a shared object to store information about different items in a tree and I'd like to put a little comments icon next to an item in the tree that has a shared object associated with it. I can't change the branch/leaf icons I'm already using custom icons and they must remain as they are. Can the labelFunction be used to return an object containing my label and my icon instead of just a string? If not, can someone point me in the direction with a few lines of code from the updateDisplayList function that will help me accomplish my task? Thanks!

As for code, here is the mxml view I'm trying to create:
?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="100%" height="100%" creationComplete="doPrint()" backgroundColor="#ff" mx:VBox height="396" width="535" id="atts" x="72" y="10" backgroundColor="#ff" mx:Label text="{product.name}" fontSize="11" fontWeight="bold"/ mx:Label text="MATNR: {product.matnr}" color="#EE8D0C"/ mx:Label text="BISMT: {product.bismt}" color="#EE8D0C"/ mx:Label text="UOM: {product.uom}" color="#EE8D0C"/mx:Label text="QTY: {product.qty}" color="#EE8D0C"/ mx:Image id="img" source="{product.image}" width="143" height="97"//mx:VBox
/mx:Canvas
The intent with the canvas is to use a CSS to create a template to publish the XML data to and then print it. I was originally trying to batch print PDFs, but since that can't really be done effectively in flex and I have all the data that is in the PDF, I'm trying to go the route of duplicating what the PDF looks like in a flex canvas.
As for AS code, i'm not really sure what to send. Nothing I have works and I've got code commented all over the place with the different routes I've tried. So let me do this...I'll highlight the overall workflow here in this post. Sam, if you check your gmail account, I'll attach two files and some code snippets that I've been playing around with.
Intended Workflow:
Flex app initializes with XML data loaded into ArrayCollection of objects.
User elects to "Print Catalog"--gets prompted with a SINGLE print dialog window.
Flex app loops through ArrayCollection and sends each object to the abovemxml Canvas component for printing.
Since the main problem is being created by the fact that the object is added to the print job before the image has loaded, I really think the solution lies in pre-loading the image before the canvas ever gets created.

Instead of loading the images that you want to print, one-at-a- time, into a canvas. You could load all of the images, at the same time, into a Repeater (or a list-based control).

Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)
Hi Sam,
I tried a few events and complete was the only one that would work.
Unfortunately, the data (path to the images) is being fed via an XML
file which is constantly being updated, so there is no way for me to
embed the images.
I'm trying to build a custom template batch printing solution in
Flex. On one page, I need to be able to print the image, some text
field metadata pertaining to the image, and a tree control that
shows some descriptive hierarchy (an assembly tree for you CAD guys
out there) for the image. But I need this to happen for a
potentially large number of objects stored in a ArrayCollection.
I'm wondering if I could send the data to a canvas view and then add
that canvas to a viewstack, create a new view in the viewstack, and
then repeat for all the data in my ArrayCollection. Once I have a
viewstack with X views, send that viewstack to a print function to
loop through the indexes and print. What would that do to
performance if I had a viewstack of 500-1000 views?

Hi,
After a longtime just lurking i have ran into a mindboggling
situation again.
This is the setup:
- regular cairngorm setup
- a view with two inputs, an input and a slider
- the slider has an snapInterval of 5000
- the text input has no Interval, obvious..
- when the user updates the slider he changes the input of the
textfield
- by pressing a button the user triggers the calculation
- the text-input is bound to the value of the model
- triggering the calculation broadcasts a cairngorm event that
updates the model.
This is a simplified situation to figure out what is happening, in
the normal situation both input changes trigger the calculation.
What I want to happen is:
- user can use the slider to approximate the amount
- user can use the textinput to input an specific amount, this
sets
the slider in the (snapintervalled rounded) area, but does not
broadcast the cairngorm event (no change event should occur).
How i tried to implement this (just my script block)
import nl.robecodirect.rdinternet.model.ModelLocator;
private var delegate:Function;
function sliderChange(event){
valueChanged(event.target.value);
}
// called on init
private function handleInitialize(){
delegate = mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, sliderChange);
sliderBrutoJaarInkomen.addEventListener(change, delegate);
}
public function inputChange(event) {
siderBrutoJaarInkomen.removeEventListener(change,
delegate);
sliderBrutoJaarInkomen.value=event.target.text;
//this calls the EventBroadcaster..
valueChanged(event.target.text);
sliderBrutoJaarInkomen.addEventListener(change, delegate);
}
What happens is, checked in long debugging,:
After the complete cairngorm command and inputChange methods are
finished, a new change event is fired from the slider, which sets
the input box to the snapintervalled value...
Why o why, it drives me crazy.
Any insights, pointers, are welcome.
A reborn flex newbie ;)

Bug in printing with test case (was Re: [flexcoders] Flex print jobs)
I was having the same problem until I added: pp.width=printjob.pageWidth; pp.height=printjob.pageHeight where pp is the object that I want printed. Not to hijack this thread, but is there a limitation in Flex that prevents the printing of jpegs that have been loaded dynamically onto a canvas? Like I said, adding those two lines allowed my object to start printing, but only the text is visible--no images.

[flexcoders] Re: Help with SharedObject please!
If I trace it locally the shared object returns what it's supposed to. I'm still relatively new to flex so pardon my asking, but how do you configure flex to trace data from a deployed swf (ie. running from a url). I know if I try to just simply run the debug files generated by flex, I get prompted for where the debugger is running. Selecting localhost never seems to work for me as it just keeps re-prompting me for the location of the debugger.

[flexcoders] Re: Help with SharedObject please!
I tried downloading the app. It seems to work fine on any shared
object created with earlier versions of Flash, but I was unable to
get it to read any of my Shared Objectes created with Flex 2/Flash
9. I know some of my SO's have data in them because I have the data
it's retrieving being traced to my console. But like I said before,
it only gets data when executing locally, not via a URL.
Any other ideas??
Thanks!

http://www.sephiroth.it/python/solreader.php
SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from local
HD:
C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application
Data\Macromedia\Flash
Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\localhost
SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from a Web
server with a domain:
C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application
Data\Macromedia\Flash
Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\www.yourWebSite.com
Also, be aware that unless you secify a domain location for the
creation of the shared object then it will use the default
namespace
of the domain the SWF is on. There may be some new sandbox
restrictions in Flex 2 that I do not know about that may be the
cause
of your problem.
You can specify the location of where the SharedObject is created
with
the extra parameter:
var mySO:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(soName, /);
Also, you might want to check out this link:

[flexcoders] Photoviewer example--why no access to class variables?
Howdy all... I'm hoping someone can clear up a little confusion of mine: In the photoviewer example that comes with Flex 2, why can you only get to the data of the instatiated PhotoService class via mx tags, but when you try to access any of the object via actionscript they always show up as null? For example mx:Binding source=service.galleries.getItemAt(0) destination=gallery / works fine, but if you tried to do: var o:Object=service.galleries.getItemAt(0), o would be null (provided there were no cast exceptions).

[flexcoders] Batch PDF Printing possible yet?
Howdy all... Is the following possible: I've got a tree where each node represents a single page pdf file. I'd like to loop through the tree, get each PDF file and send it to the printer without having to click OK or Print more than once for the entire job. I know there are some solutions out there that will print the pdf into an swf which can then be printed from within the flash player, but those will not work as each PDF contains embded 3D objects. Only Acrobat and/or Reader currently know how to handle the 3D object. So basically, I need to somehow, programatically, invoke the Acrobat print function from within the flash UI. Doable??? Thanks!

node=t.getNodeDisplayedAt(i);
}
}
but i've been unsuccessful in finding the appropriate classes for
getTreeNodeAt and TreeNode. I read somewhere to use
ITreeDataDescriptor but it does not work with DisplayObjects
(getChildAt). Someone please help! :)
Thanks!

[flexcoders] Popup window Change event is broken!!!
I posted the following message yesterday and have done a ton of
testing. It now seems apparant that any events executed the list
component in a popup window simmply do not execute. I created the
exact same window as a standalone application and the code functions
as expected. However, move the code to a popup and it fails with no
error. It just doesn't work.
What email address at adobe do we send bugs to? I'm writing an
application that will be deployed at a customer site and I've got to
get this piece of functionality working.
Can anyone help???!!!

[flexcoders] Clearing Thumbnails from a panel??
I want to thank everyone who threw a comment at me for my previous question about handling large XML datasets. I think I'm going to follow the suggestion of splitting up the XML into smaller files and then reading the data in based on the user search criteria. One of the things that I'll need to happen, though if I go that route is to purge the results currently on the screen. I've been playing around with the FlexStore example trying to do this. I implmented the search bar so that I can type in the phone name and it will display the selected phone. I've also modified the code to only load the selected phone after the search button is click (so it reads and caches the XML data, but doesn't display anything on the screen). If I type in another query, though, the new thumbnail just appears on top of the previous thumbnail. How do I re-initialize the catalogPanel so that it blanks the panel before displaying the results of the new search? I've tried using the removeAllChildren to make sure there is nothing on the catalogPanel followed by a addchild(products), but I end up with pretty much the same result. I would think that executing a removeAllChildren as part of a button click event would ensure that everytime the button is clicked, the panel is blanked. What am I doing wrong???

[flexcoders] Re: Clearing Thumbnails from a panel??
NevermindI figured out that if I wrote a special clearPanel function which looped through the selected items and set selected=false followed by a call to layouttiles, it worked exactly as i needed to. Now I just need to figure out how to prevent any of the thumbnails from displaying if the search result set is greater than 100, which I have actually found--the issue is that it keeps catalogPanel.thumbs [i] from populating with the necessary records to do an active filter search. So what I'm trying to do is: General search--user clicks search button after entering text Results returned, but only displayed if record count 100 If results are greater than 100, user can type in a second search box which should filter (active search) the result set and display results once the record count is below 100. I've got the general search working along with the active search but only if I display all results returned from the initial query. Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: Large XML Dataset?
--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Doug Lowder [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I had some of the same issues reading XML over HTTP. If your XML is dynamically generated by a server (via JSP, CF, ASP, etc.), you can do what I did, which is to essentially pass your search values as parameters within your HTTP request and have the server pass back only the data that match those criteria. Hope that helps, Doug Initially, the XML will be generated by a server, but after that, the server is completely out of the picture. Unfortunately, the XML will then be on burnt to CD which may then be copied to some stand-alone PC. There will be no server involved once the swf is running. Any other ideas?

[flexcoders] Large XML Dataset?
I've been searching and searching, but haven't been able to find the answer, so I'm posting here as a last resort. I am working on a Flex application that must read in a fairly large XML file (1.5 to 3 megs depending).If I were to base my application off of the flexstore example, I'd just open up the XML file and try to read in everything. This works fine for 500- 1000 records, but, unfortunately, has some pretty nasty effects when dealing with about 12000 thumbnails. When it comes to reading XML I'm not sure of e4x, object, or XML is the most efficent result set. Regardless...is there a way to open the XML file, but not read from it until a user enters a search and then only return nodes from the XML which match the search? Basically, I want to use the XML file as sort of a virtual database. The reason I have to go this route is that the application will be delivered via CD and is meant to run as a desktop application.
