[Flashcoders] Extending Flash8 mx.controls.textarea No Scroll Bar?
I have been trying to subclass mx.control.textarea. This seems to work well
other than I never get a vertical scroll bar. With Xray I can see that
_vscrollpolicy is auto so it should work.
What I have done.
I am using the label for the bounding box from mx.controls.textarea
standardComponent.
My new Class:
import mx.controls.TextArea;
class TextAreaPreview extends TextArea
{
/* Components must declare these member variables to be proper
components in the components framework. */
static var symbolName:String = TextAreaPreview;
static var symbolOwner:Object = TextAreaPreview;
var className:String = TextAreaPreview;
// The component's graphical representation.
private var label:TextField; // the main textfield for the
component
/** Constructor **/
function TextAreaPreview() {
}
public function init():Void {
super.init();
this.vScrollPolicy = auto;
this.editable = false;
}
private function onLoad() {
// becuase we are extending textarea we get a
bounding box. This has to be removed
border_mc._visible = false;
}
/** Because we are extending a UI component the following
methods and there super
* are very important! **/
private function createChildren():Void {
super.createChildren();
}
private function draw():Void {
super.draw();
}
private function size():Void {
super.size();
this.label._height = this.height;
this.label._width = this.width;
}
}
Thanks for your help!!!

[Flashcoders] Singleton class inside SWC components?
I am working on a Flash 8 project that has several components. Each of the components has a reference to a singleton class that it uses for passing messages between each other. Before I compile the components into SWC files I can use SingltonClass.getInstance().getMyInformation(). This works great and I can copy as many instances from the library I want and get the desired result However as soon as I compile them into an SWC and add more than one of the same component onto the stage they all end up using the same instance of that class. Has anyone seen this? Can anyone explain how I can have my compiled SWC components work like they do when they are just fla's in the library? Is there a special way to build swc components other than right click and export to SWC from the library in order to get this to work properly amongst several components? Thanks for your help!

Re: [Flashcoders] Writing code for big teams
Where would you place a your global properties? This is a question that
has always got me.
If the properties such as framerate, gatewayURL, styles, etc need to be in
the class application. They have to be there for two reasons.
1. User defined inspectable properties.
2. variables must be available for proper instantiation.
I have always wanted to have a config file, then a worker class that just
handles all the get setters. However I have never been able to pull this off
in order for the application class to wait for the variables to be
populated. Any ideas? I assume I will try again in AS3.

There is another approach to communicate those swfs:
- At your side:
1. Class Application (singleton)
2. Class LoadedSWF (or whatever), abstract class that every swf of the
team development will have to extend. This class could implement any
interface you like, and will have a constructor like this:
public function LoadedSWF() {
Application.getInstance().register(this);
}
3. Your Application class will have a method register where you can
subscribe to LoadedSWF events, or even store a reference to the object
to call any of his methods.
public function register(obj:LoadedSWF):Void {
obj.addEventListener(event, Delegate.create(this, onEvent));
}
- At the team development side:
1. intrinsic class Application
2. intrinsic class LoadedSWF
3. The class that controls the swf will have to extend LoadedSWF, and
call super() in its constructor
class Whatever extends LoadedSWF {
public function Whatever() {
super();
...
}
}
This way everytime you load an external swf of your team development it
automatically notifies your Application class.
PS: so many people from DMSTK around here these days :-)

No man, that's not my point.
You cannot make a swf implement an interface, but you can make the
content of that swf implement it. Say you have in the _root of every
section swf something like this:
---
var section:SectionClass = new SectionClass(this);
SectionClass implements the interface, so you know which methods and
properties are going to be available in the section variable.
You cannot force external developers in the strict mean of the word,
you'll need to _ask_ them to do so. Simply refuse any external swf not
implementing the interface.
Makes more sense now?

Make the contained movie register its 'main' class with a known

For example, ensure that the container can do something like:
_parent.registerMe(MyControllingClass);
where MyControllingClass implements the PluginMovie interface (or
whatever your interface is called) and you've set up
_parent.registerMe() as something like:
public function registerMe(movie:PluginMovie):Void;
Does that make sense? The other advantage of doing it 'backwards'

this is that you could put off registering until all your
assets are
loaded or some other action has happened; your child movie has
complete control of when it's ready to talk to the container.
Hope that helps,

[Flashcoders] Where to add eventListners in UIComponent classes?
I have a component that has a couple Macromedia UI components used inside of it. I have found that if I add my event listeners inside of createChildren after I have added the UI components the events are not added. I have also tried to add the events inside of the draw method. In order to get the events to work properly I have to add them into my onLoad() method. However this makes it so when I load the component I do not get an accurate onLoad event from the component as the event handlers have yet to be registered. Is there someplace that I am missing that I should be placing all of my event registration in anything that extends UIComponent?

[Flashcoders] external component assets
I have a couple components that have background images and other visual assets that are not always used. I have created inspectable properties that allow the user to turn off the images if they do not want them. However the file size of the component is still the same. My assumption is that the background images are still downloaded. My question is it possible to have a component when dragged onto the stage drop movie clips into the library. This would allow the user to edit those movie clips or delete them if they do not want them. My hope is to keep the file size of components down and make it as easy as possible for people to customize the components when they want to without doubling the size of the component.

[Flashcoders] USB Video device driver virtual rtsp.
I am having some issues getting my RTSP stream into flash and still have the ability to layer objects on top of the video. My thought was to write a virtual camera driver that flash could connect. Possibly even mimic one of the supported drivers. The have the application stream rtsp to be sent to flash. Has anyone every worked on one of these drivers that they could point out what was necessary for flash to pick up the device? If anyone is willing to do consulting work on this application I am willing to pay.

RE: [Flashcoders] RTSP in flash?
I will be creating this as a desktop application. I have already written in C++ a controller interface for the xbox 360. I now need to get the video into the application. My thought was to use zink or some other 3rd party projector but all them seem to only allow you to load a local file not a url for the stream. Thanks for your insight. Back to google I go! Wade -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chafic Kazoun Sent: Friday, June 30, 2006 7:04 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] RTSP in flash? The Flash Player doesn't support the RTSP protocol (neither RTP, RTCP which are usually also required for proper RTSP) and it doesn't support decoding MPEG4 Video. So, currently there is no way for you to play such a stream natively in the player and I doubt it will be coming anytime soon if ever. The only other option would be for you to try to layer a quicktime player (if that player supports the version of mpeg4 your camera provides) or some media player on top of the Flash interface and have them communicate to each other, which essentially means you would fake the displaying of the video within Flash. My guess is you are trying to do this within a browser, if you have the option of distributing this application as a desktop application you might want to look into some methods of embedding media player within a desktop application or take a look at 3rd party projector tools which some will allow you to do this more easily if you have no experience in writing desktop applications HTH Chafic http://www.atellis.com blog: http://www.rewindlife.com On Jun 30, 2006, at 4:45 PM, Wade Arnold wrote: I have a desktop application that I am working on that has one camera that it connects at: rtsp://127.0.0.1/livefeed I have scoured the web and do not see any way of natively accessing this stream from flash.

RE: [Flashcoders] Flex 2.0 Heap issue
I have tried this but it failed to help. Flex Builder running slow or hang, or get out of Memory message Flex Builder will consuming memory over times, especially when you have a lot of projects created in FB. You can monitor the memory usage of FB from windows task manager. Look at the javaw.exe process, the above mentioned problems usually happens when the memory usage of javaw.exe is too height. You can close and restart the FB to clean up the memory. By default, FB set the heap size for Java virtual machine in FlexBuilder.ini as following: -vmargs -Xms256M -Xmx512M If you exceed the maximum value, OutOfMemory errors can occur. If your system has more total memory available, then you can increase the maximum heap size value. The rule of thumb used to be set the maximum heap size no more than half of the total memory available. However, with the new features and settings in the newer version of JDK, there are more factors you need to consider when deciding what is the best maximum heap size you can use. You can consult articles about heap size online. To change the heap size settings, you can modify them in FlexBuilder.ini under the FB root directory. If you start FB by command line (or using Eclipse), then you can change them by command line (or FB2 shortcut) such as C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2 Beta 1\FlexBuilder.exe -vmargs -Xms256M -Xmx512M 7. NullPointer Exception when open FB If you leave some files open when you close FB and restart FB later, by default FB will open the files you previously opened. If one of those opened file has been deleted already at this time, then FB will throw NullPointer exception. All you need to do to get rid of the exception is to close that file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wade Arnold Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 11:56 AM To: Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: [Flashcoders] Flex 2.0 Heap issue Hey All, I am seeing the following error right now on FLEX An out of memory error has occurred.

Re: AW: [Flashcoders] Flash connecting to a database - all running on aDVD-ROM
Would using SQLite or Berkley DB work on the server for development and then just copy the database.db file to your cd?

Everyone has stated that flex 2.0 is amazing! From the examples I have seen I am also very impressed. We have always tried to implement java concepts in flash and run into problems. YEA FLEX! However can anyone answer these questions? 1.) When should you start developing client application in flex 2.0? We have clients that are interested in using flex rather that Java Webstart for current applications. Is Flex 2.0 ready for us to start developing for production use? What quarter '06 '07 is production use possible? 2.) When will an AS3 capable player be released publicly? 4.) What will pricing be like to deploy a flex 2.0 application on a server? We are specifically looking to use it for a shopping cart inventory management application with db connection via Hibernate. Is this something that will require a license?

[Flashcoders] (CAKE or FuseBox) + AMF ??
After standardizing our flash practices for developing RIA we are looking to a platform for server side integration. To date we have just used AMF services and created classes that then could be consumed via remoting. We are now running into issues: + Maintaining server side application code for legacy applications. PHP V3 - PHP 4.* - PHP 5* + Documentation that is specific to a project when code functionality is not specific to the application. + Large learning curve for new staff members. + Lack of any list or forum for support, such as this list for Flash. The idea is that by moving to CAKE or Fuzebox we can leverage the existing work and of course aid to the projects. Anyone on the list worked with these technologies and their integration with flash via AMF? I saw that Patrick Mineault (AMFPHP fame) posted to his blog about some of these technologies today and the future integration with AMFPHP.

Re: [Flashcoders] convert mail form from HTML to Flash
IE6 looks is escaping all the code whenever there is a space or it
is replacing it with %20 %22 to make it URL friendly. I will see if I
can work around this.
When you have it installed you can then just go to any website with a
form in it, ie google.com, and click the link. It should create all
the actionscript for you. I have added a contribute video to the site
to show how to do this.
http://weblogs.t8design.com/upload/form2AS.htm
If you have any feedback on how you would make this better I would
really appreciate it. We are always making flash RIA that need to login
or connect to a legacy cgi GET/POST scripts. We created this tool to
help with the tedious task of re-creating the form. Once this is done
the developer just has to drag enough input-fields to the stage and
label them properly.In the future we hope to connect this to mtasc for
actually making the UI dynamically.
Here is the code that it generate for google.com
// create a new listener object;
submitObj = new Object();
// handle button click events;
submitObj.click = function() {
this.submitForm();
}
// handle enter key events;
submitObj.enter = function() {
this.submitForm();
}
// method to submit our form;
submitObj.submitForm = function() {
// post variables;
var post_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
post_lv[hl] = en;
post_lv[q] = ;
post_lv[btnG] = Google Search;
post_lv[btnI] = I'm Feeling Lucky;
// The document location is http://www.google.com/
// The form action is /http://www.google.com/search
url = http://www.google.com/http://www.google.com/search;;
// Submit the form in a new window. Test that the form method is

[Flashcoders] CustomFormatter for Percentage and Dollar
I am about to start writing a customFormatter but I have to ask if this has been done a million times before. I have searched almighty google and this list and not have found an answer. I am wondering if CustomFormatter only works for data-binding and not actually for manual input. Assuming that this is a common task I have to ask if I am going about this the wrong way. Please let me know what steps I need to take to get the below result. I have two text formatters for the textinput class: The first is to handle percentages. people like to type in percentages a lot of ways. I want the result of this input field to give me a type number of 0.06 with the following inputs: 6% .06 6 People like to type monitory numbers a lot of different ways. I want the result of what they type to be a number with out all of the character formating. With the following inputs I would like the the result to be : 6,666 6,666.00 $6,666.00 $6,666 $ With both examples I would like to be able to set the number back to the text area and have the text area display it with the proper formating. Example: 0.06 would be displayed as 6% would be displayed as $6,666.00 Thanks; Wade Arnold www.T8DESIGN.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

[Flashcoders] Job Offer :: employee search
I am wondering if their is a better place to post full time positions. We have six positions that we need to fill for development of client projects and the component development. Please let me know if you have any URL's. I have wasted money on all the job sites and am not finding the type of people that would use this list. If you are an HR person that knows how to find these types of people please contact me! Thanks for any insight!
