[flexcoders] Advanced custom components in Flex Builder 3

Hi all. I'm trying to determine if any of the following are possible in design mode in Flex Builder 3: * have new custom components appear in a category other than Custom * if there are multiple custom components with the same name but appear in different packages, cause only one

[flexcoders] Lexical scoping of variable declarations not working?

I'm seeing some odd behavior with the AS3 compiler. I say it's odd because it's at variance with the vast majority of C language derivatives (in fact, I'll go out on a limb and say ALL of them). The behavior I'm seeing is this: If I have package { public class badscope { public

[flexcoders] arguments class?

The Flex 2/AS3 docs make it appear that arguments is both a variable, as well as a class. Can anyone clarify this for me? If I want to store arguments away for later usage, what type should I specify (apart from Array, which I *think* will work, tho given that there's not a type inheritance

[flexcoders] Re: CSS type selectors are not supported in components

I'm getting this error message from within an mx:Application (well a subclass thereof) that includes things via mx:Style source=.../. Is there some salient difference between inline inclusion vs. external definitions? The docs don't seem to indicate so... --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com,

Hi. I know there is someone who knows the answer. It may be the unreachable Ted Patrick, who claims he knows the answer in his blog, instead of including the solution, has a link that is now dead to the solution. I am hoping that someone else @ Adobe also knows the answer. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

[flexcoders] Best Practices: determining if a key is in an Object?

I'd like to find out what the best (most efficient) way to determine if a given key is present in an object. obj[key] will answer undefined if either there is no key in object, OR if it's value is in fact undefined. I can of course to the potentially expensive for..in and break out if I find

I'm trying to create a List (and then a DataGrid) that can have some cells that grow in height(an actually get additional child elements) in response to some user gesture. I have a custom row renderer and cell renderer, and when I add the child elements the cell does grow, but does so by adding

[flexcoders] Obtaining context root programmatically?

Is there any way within an AS file to find out the current context root? I have discovered that if I use the mx:String element, that the MXML translator will correctly replace @ContextRoot() with the current context root, which is fine, but I am wondering if there is a less hacky way to obtain

[flexcoders] Fun with context roots

I am wondering if I've stumbled on a limitation of Flex, or if it's a limitation of my knowledge (probably the latter). Here's the situation: I would like to have the ability to have a web server dispatch to different app servers based on a contex root like path prefix. But, I don't want to have

[flexcoders] passing variables using getURL?

I'm having problems figuring out how to pass variables using getURL. The documentation that I can find seems to indicate that any random variable that you declare that's in some (unspecified) scope, will be appended (for GET) or passed (for POST) as parameters along with the URL. So I have

[flexcoders] Anyone having problems with compc?

I'm trying desperately to produce a SWC that contains a large group of components. I'm experiencing a large number of problems, but the main problem I'm having is that the compiler is producing bad ActionScript! In an unpredictable but repeatable manner (i.e. the same files get hit, but

Remote object method execution sequence?

I'm trying to understand when a remote method invocation will occur during the execution of an action script method. What I've read so far indicates that it's safe to annotate the PendingCall object returned from the invocation because the invocation [I think it is:] won't occur until the calling

Lifetime of _global vs Application.application

Which has the longer lifetime: _global or Application.application; i.e. if I were to cache some information for as long as possible, which of these locations is the better choice? I would think that _global would be, as I believe the current application can be replaced programmatically, right?

Re: Lifetime of _global vs Application.application

Just so I'm clear, you're saying that under no circumstances will the singleton class be removed? Programmatic replacement of the top level application won't discard this singleton? And the replaced application when it refers to the singleton class will be referring to the exact same class (and

callback execution environment?

I'm trying to understand the environment that a call back function is executing in. I have called a remote object from ActionScript, via var call = remoteObject.myFunc(); Then I set a result handler function on the returned PendingCall instance: call.onResult = myFunc; But when myFunc gets

Almost read-only client side cache

In the application that we're developing, there is a significant amount of state that the client side RIA uses that changes very slowly. By very slowly I mean it may not change for a month, may go through a few days where it changes more frequently, and then goes dormant again. Rather than
