[Flashcoders] Recursive and e:Event
I am having an issue trying to recursively go through some xml...
When the xml was local (i.e. var newXml:XML = tag ..;) then a recursive
function like:
function (parseXML(_xml:*) {
...
parseXML(ixml);
}
worked fine
but when I try to pull it in from another file via:
xmlLoader.load..
xmlLoader.addEventListener. {
parseXML(e);
}
function (parseXML(e:Event) {
...
parseXML(ixml);
}
It works fine the first time through and then I get an error on the first
recursive call because ixml is not an e:Event
I need to find a way to get around this can I call the function without
e:Event?

[Flashcoders] Process issue
I have a function that is building some xml through a recursive function... and
then call another function once the xml is done
how can I tell when it is done being built:
I can not do:
function buildXML() {
buidlXML();
callotherfunction();
}
because that would called to much hmm can not figure this out... the
buildXML function is taking other XML and canging it to a structure I can
use

RE: [Flashcoders] Recursive and e:Event
Far better to separate the event handling from the recursion altogether.
In the event handler get the XML, then pass it to the recursive routine. Don't
pass an event to the recursive routine, pass the data/XML.
Generally with recursive code, when you run out of arguments to pass, you stop
calling.

Create a Class which processes your XML and dispatches an Event when
it's done. Upon receiving the Event, you can proceed to the next
function.

Re: [Flashcoders] flash builder 4 released

[Flashcoders] What good is a Controller?
Hi List, Ok, this may sound a bit odd coming from someone who's been coding with MVC for the last 7 years, but I seem to be missing the point of a Controller... I'm hoping to start a discussion to help me (and maybe others like me) improve my architecture by better understanding the Controller, and what good that does... First of all, here's a quick summary of my current architecture: All my projects are based on an MVC structure in their core, but my Controller class has only one function - linking the Model/s with the Views/s. The communication between Model/s and View/s happens via Broadcaster - my own AS3 reworking of the old AsBroadcaster (remember broadcastMessage? I even found a way to get and set public properties in the model using broadcastMessage(get, prop)). Typically, the model notifies the View that data was loaded, and then the View does all the donkey work, and calls a number of generic methods on the model, mostly for data retrieval. Within the View, I use EventDispatcher for the usual stuff, like button functionality. The View classes are the ones that listen to the events. For example, a View class may have a submit button, and that button's MouseEvent.CLICK goes to a clickListener method in the same class. If I understand recent list discussions correctly, it would be better to move EventDispatcher listeners to the Controller. Is that the correct approach? If so, why...? When I coded my Controller class, I built into it the ability to link Controller Classes with Broadcaster, as well as Views and Models, but so far I haven't seen a good way of implementing it, or even extending the base Controller class, because everything in my code seems to be happening either in the View or the Model layers. So where am I going wrong? Please understand that I don't mean to say that the Controller is no good other than as a way to link the View with the Model, I'm just trying to understand it better - there's always plenty of room for improvement!

Re: [Flashcoders] What good is a Controller?
the way i understand it, the controller is supposed to provide the logic and functionality for the views as well as acting as an intermediary between the view and the model (my version fires events back to the views but others use the controller to pass events back from the model to the view as well) and as such, the same controller can be used for multiple views (i have a single PageController for my basic site setup that provides the functionality for all of the pages as well as the logic about which page to show / hide) there is plenty of commentary out there to suggest that the controller is largely unnecessary and that the views can do it all as encapsulated objects (i've even read something by someone much smarter than me [ http://c2.com/cgi-bin/wiki?MvcIsNotObjectOriented] that suggested that the c in mvc was anti-oop) but for me the benefit for the controller is that i can create functionality separate from design. if you look at the html / php / mysql model, mvc has a very natural flow - the mysql database and the php interact much like the controller (php) and the model (mysql) and the result is then fed to the views (the served html page). to be honest, for simlpe stuff, even within a large mvc project, i've found myself falling back to a model-view structure when the controller just made for extra complication and then kept the full-blown controllers for the really big stuff (my views take a mandatory model and an optional controller to allow for this). might have complicated it more with this for you but maybe i got something right best a On 29 March 2010 15:55, Karina Steffens kar...@neo-archaic.net wrote: Hi List, Ok, this may sound a bit odd coming from someone who's been coding with MVC for the last 7 years, but I seem to be missing the point of a Controller...

Re: [Flashcoders] What good is a Controller?
there is plenty of commentary out there to suggest that the controller is largely unnecessary and that the views can do it all as encapsulated objects (i've even read something by someone much smarter than me [ http://c2.com/cgi-bin/wiki?MvcIsNotObjectOriented] that suggested that the c in mvc was anti-oop) but for me the benefit for the controller is that i can create functionality separate from design. I don't think it's really anti-OOP as much as irrelevant to OOP. The controller has nothing to do with your object domain model, it's just a mechanism to get messages from views to models or other views, and vice-versa. if you look at the html / php / mysql model, mvc has a very natural flow - the mysql database and the php interact much like the controller (php) and the model (mysql) and the result is then fed to the views (the served html page). Strictly speaking, that's not how most web application developers categorize the components of an MVC design (despite what the Wikipedia page says). PHP (or whatever application server you're using) would serve both as the controller and the views, and perhaps even the model as well. PHP itself doesn't really encourage this sort of separation (although it doesn't prevent it either), but for example, in a Java web app you might use JSP for your views, and a single servlet as a controller, and beans as your model. And of course, JSPs, servlets and beans are all just Java code. But, generally speaking, views are responsible for their own rendering, which typically requires server-side logic. If the view isn't responsible for its own rendering (which would be the case in a static HTML view, then the design pattern in question might better be described as Model-View-Presenter (MVP): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_Presenter Now, this doesn't take into consideration the use of client-side functionality and where that fits, but that presumably would just be additional view logic.

Re: [Flashcoders] What good is a Controller?
When I've implemented MVC: * I have one controller for each view * Each view knows about it's controller, but only as a generic controller (either as an interface or a base class) * Each View registers it's controller as the event listener for each of it's buttons. * Each controller translates a generic call in itself into a specific call to the model that may or may not cause a state change. * In response to state changes, the model notifies all views. * The notification can include the state change information, OR * The view can request the state change information from the model. * The view changes updates what is presented to the user as needed based on the change in state. The reason to implement the listener in the controller is to separate the implementation of the business logic from the display logic. This makes the implementation of the specific function on the model independent of the generic function on the view. Example: an application has several views that each have a next and previous button. Each view registers the next button with its controllers next function. Each controller provides next and previous functions that invoke one or more methods on the model that may cause a state change. This provides a decoupling of the business logic from the display logic. If I want to change what is displayed, or how it is displayed, I change the view. If I want to change the response to user input, I change the controller. An example of why this is nice: I've got a clock face that I want to use as a stop watch (elapsed time) and as a timer (count-down timer). View could be identical, and just change the controller to change the functionality. Start, Stop and Reset would all have different meanings that are handled by the controller. I know that a bug in the timer code is independent of the stop watch code. In certain situations, it may be beneficial to implement a view as another instance of the MVC pattern. An example of this would be where a user is making choices in a configuration, and those choices don't get saved into the application state until the OK or Apply button is clicked. While the choices are being made, the views internal state is stored in the views model, and when OK is clicked the choices get stored into the application's model. Whether or not it's worthwhile to implement a view as another internal MVC pattern depends upon the complexity of the view vs. the added complexity of the overall system. IMHO, the choice should be to go with what makes the overall system the easiest to support.
