[flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
I use PHP and WebORb for PHP so anything I show will use that.
Please do not ask for a tutorial using something else.
There should be enough here for you to extrapolate for use with any
language.
This is a quick and dirty example that hard codes things. In a real
application
I would loosely couple everything with events.
My Flex project is set up with a couple of folders called components and
ValueObjects.
The main Application file (login_example.mxml):
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute" xmlns:view="components.*"
applicationComplete="doApplicationComplete()">
This has a view stack for each view - Admin and Home. There are also a
couple of functions.
doApplicationComplete is called on applicationComplete event and
instantiates the login
window. doLogin is called from the login component if login is
successful. It poulates the
userCredentials variable of the Admin component.
==
components/Home.mxml:
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";>
This is just a container for the background of the login window at
startup.
==
components/login.mxml:
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute" title="Login Form"
creationComplete="PopUpManager.centerPopUp(this)"
initialize="onInitialize()">
This is the login window. It has a form with username and password
fields. The login
button invokes the remoteObject with these fields. If these fields are
in the database
then the string "Success" will be returned and the doLogin function in
the main
application will be invoked.
==
components/Admin.mxml:
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="100%"
height="100%"
creationComplete="onCreationComplete()">
This is the Admin component. It gets instantiated when the login is
successful. The
userCredentials variable will be populated from the main application
file (In the doLogin
function). This component will then invoke the remoteObject call to get
the userInfo
and when the result comes back, populate each of the TextInput items.
==
ValueObjects/UserCredentials.as:
package ValueObjects
{
[RemoteClass(alias="UserInfo.Classes.UserCredentials")]
[Bindable]
public class UserCredentials
{
//instance variables
private var _username:String;
private var _password:String;
//accessor methods
public function get username():String {return _username;}
public function get password():String {return _password;}
//mutator methods
public function set username(username:String):void {_username =
username;}
public function set password(password:String):void {_password =
password;}
} // end class
}//end package
This object holds the user credentials (username and password) to be
sent to the server.
==
ValueObjects/UserInfo.as:
package ValueObjects
{
[RemoteClass(alias="UserInfo.Classes.UserInfo")]
[Bindable]
public class UserInfo
{
//instance variables
private var _username:String;
private var _password:String;
private var _firstname:String;
private var _lastname:String;
private var _email:String;
//accessor methods
public function get username():String {return _username;}
public function get password():String {return _password;}
public function get firstname():String {return _firstname;}
public function get lastname():String {return _lastname;}
public function get email():String {return _email;}
//mutator methods
public function set username(username:String):void {_username =
username;}
public function set password(password:String):void {_password =
password;}
public function set firstname(firstname:String):void {_firstname
= firstname;}
public function set lastname(lastname:String):void {_lastname =
lastname;}
public function set email(email:String):void {_email = email;}
} // end class
}//end package
This object holds the user info returned by the server.
==
That's it for the Flex code.
Next up, the PHP side...
On the PHP side I have a UserInfo folder inside the Services folder of
WebORB.
Inside this folder I have a Classes folder to hold the value object

We will not write your application for you. Well I will, at my hourly rate, contact me off list if you want to hire me. If you want any more help from me you will need to show what you are doing. To start with, post your login HTTPService declaration code and your result handler code.

[flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
For simplicity's sake, I would add a public var to your Admin component and populate it with pop.username_txt.text: viewstack1.selectedChild = admin; admin.username = pop.username_txt.text; In your Admin component's creationComplete handler, you would have another RemoteObject call to gather user data for the user that was passed above. I would recommend reading some tutorials about how to use ColdFusion and Flex (I don't use ColdFusion - I use PHP): http://flexcf.com/tutorials http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/data_app.html http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/coldfusionflex_part1.html http://tutorial512.easycfm.com/ --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "stinasius" wrote: > > hi this is my the login code functionality am using that i got from > flex cookbook example and works perfect.

John Please post the code you have for the login functionality. I can use that to show you how to do the info bit. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "johndoematrix" wrote: > > please guys help me out here. >

[flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
hi am using rpc(remote object). do you mind showing a simple example on how to go abt this. one other thing, am using states so when one logs in and its successful, the state changes and they can view thier information like username, password, email and can edit it. thanks
Re: [flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
If you implemented le login functionality, then you should have some mechanism (httpservice, rpc ...) to exchange data with the server to send login info and get a response back. Just use the same mechanisms to send a request and get the data back.

[flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
yes i have implemented the login functionality and its working. nw i am faced with the issue of showing the details of the logged in user. any help?
[flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
yes just pass the info back to the httpservice
maybe this example will help you
http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/10/29/passing-parameters-to-an-httpservice/
you call the httpservice upon login button clicked
login.send();
and then the httpservice provider passes the login to your backend code
{name.text}
{password.text}

How have you implemented your login functionality?
