Hello,
Recently I played with googles' Gtalk jabber client and basically
for each new IM session a new window is created. What I need to know
in Flex or Flash is does each new window have or can have an unique ID
(I was thinking I could use the JID) and how can you check for the
existence of
import mx.containers.TitleWindow;
private static var uniqueID:Number = 0;
function createNewWindow():TitleWindow
{
uniqueID++;
var ref:TitleWindow = TitleWindow(wins_canvas.createChild(TitleWindow,
win + uniqueID));
return ref;
}
mx:Canvas id=wins_canvas /
You could use
wow thanks.
I was thinking windows has been done to death. Can you do this with
Tabs too? Thanks a ton. Dan

You can:
- either add a child to a ViewStack that an TabNavigator is bound to
- add data to the dataProvider a TabBar is bound to

Thanks I added your code to a PopUpManager.createPopUp()
function showWindow(modal) {
uniqueID++;
var popup = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(
_root,
testWindowPopup,
modal, {deferred: true},
win + uniqueID);
debugTxt.text = popup;
}

I've tried using child tags in the same namespace, I've also tried
creating objects in Actioncript and then embedding them such as:
In MXML:
request{myRequestObject}/request
In Actionscript:
new myRequestObject:Object = new Object;
new embeddedObject:Object = new
I'm not sure we really provide a way to do that. It's either all or
nothing. You could use a custom cell renderer that avoids sending a
click up through to the Tree I suppose.
I think the same will be true in 2.0. Might be worth filing an
enhancement request at
Im not sure if the example requires
you to have the server proxy running as the destination may not have a
crossdomain.xml file (I dont have the book with me). The proxy didnt
ship with the Alpha so youd need to just find a different service that
does work without a proxy for now.
There's a whole section in the docs on writing a custom progress bar:

To:
Create a Java object that has a method
that takes two parameters, login and password.
mx:RemoteObject id=ro
source=yourclass result=handleResult(event) fault=handleFault(event)
/mx:RemoteObject
//somewhere in your code
ro.yourMethod(login, password); //when the
method returns
Usually the compiler doesn't know where that left brace is located, and
like I said this is probably via generated code so it's having a hard
time matching it up into your source file.
Check all of your event handlers and binding statements. Also you can
turn on keep-generated
You can pass in your application.width and application.height as the
real values, I don't think percentage will work.

Check out layoutChildren and measure() and see if any strangeness is
going on? Are you calling super in the createChildren() method too?

Here is an example of doing a login form which does a POST from a MXML
form. This simulates the posting of a HTML form to the standard
J2EE login service. This also goes to show how simple it is to
integrate into J2EE security. There's no reason to need to roll your
own security.

No, you can't set the name of a popup window; PopUpManager does that.
Instead, store a reference.
private var popups:Object;
function initApp()
{
popups = {};
}
function showWindow(modal) {
uniqueID++;
var popup = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(
_root,
testWindowPopup,
Thanks Jester,
Have you ever seen anyone having to do this and what does thier code
look like? Dan

Having to do what, create Window managers? In my DD app, I had a set
amount of windows, so didn't really need an abstracted factory function; I
just defined the 12 window variables I knew I needed up top:
private var signIn_win:SignIn;
private var chat_win:Chat;
etc
If you need a guide to
Matt,
I've tried what you suggest, and the closest I seem to be able to come
is something like this:
Parameters: {category={\name\=\flex\}, commit=Create,...
versus the desire output which is:
Parameters: {category={name=flex}, commit=Create, ...
Basically, it has proven hard to get
What about swapping in single-quotes? Not sure if the http server would
take it. Otherwise maybe do a encoding, %22 I think is the
double-quote?

Hi,
When I try to implement a custom icon in a Tree component for Flex
2.0, it gives me a runtime error stating that it can't find the
variable I've defined for the icon class...
Has anyone gotten this to work? I can post code if need be...
Thanks,
Brendan
