Re: [Flashcoders] WIRED hates Flash
Paul, If I remember correctly, Apple is the little company that has the Mac- it's like a PC only expensive and the software you use probably doesn't work on it. Apple had a good thing way back when and they decided not to let other companies build their hardware. Now they have a hobby market for their machine. They are trying to do the same thing with their phones. They have a great product. But they are attempting to control their market with a straitjacket. These tactics will marginalize their new device to a smaller religiously devoted following- just as happened with the Mac. Which is probably why Apple's cell phone ...market share fell from 18.1% in the third quarter to 16.6% ( http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/content_display/industry/e3i5b66cf41076535513394892bc43fb243 ) They are making good money- I wouldn't mind making that much money, but they could be even bigger.

[Flashcoders] MenuEvent causes 1046 error
I have a menu bar component
mx:MenuBar id=mainMenu labelField=@label
click={MenuEvent(event)}
itemClick={MenuItemEvent(event)}
Everytime I create a handler like this:
private function MenuItemEvent(e:MenuEvent):void
I get a Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MenuEvent
But, I've explicitly imported this event:
import mx.events.MenuEvent;
Am I going mad? What am I doing wrong? I'm using standalone Flex Builder
3.0.2.214193 on Windows XP- not the Eclipse plug-in.
Please help,

Re: [Flashcoders] MenuEvent causes 1046 error
Dave,
I'm following the example here:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/controls/MenuBar.html
which has almost identical code:
// Event handler for the MenuBar control's itemClick event.
private function menuHandler(event:MenuEvent):void {
mx:MenuBar labelField=@label itemClick=menuHandler(event);
Although I always use just plain e for my parameter variable in event
handlers.
Bindings: yeah, you're right.
About the function name- I am following my company's C# standard which has
uppercase names for functions since my company does not have a Flex/AS3
coding standard. What is the convention you refer to called?
But none of your comments seem to get at my real problem, I want to access
the label the user clicks on when they use the menu bar, but I can't use it
because why? My installation is corrupt? I don't understand...

You appear to also have an event handler called MenuEvent assigned to
the click handler of the MenuBar. Also, you don't need bindings for
event handler values. You only need bindings to use AS expressions in
non-event attributes of MXML elements. Finally, it's arguably bad form
to name things other than classes in title case - the convention is to
use camel case for variables and functions.

Re: [Flashcoders] MenuEvent causes 1046 error
Dave,
Thanks!
Not sure what I was thinkin' when I used the Adobe class name MenuEvent as a
custom method name but that was the problem. An embarrassing problem to have
so publicly. But, hey, it's Monday morning!
About the coding conventions, thanks for your comments. I work for a medium
sized corporation that does software development. We have no official
Flex/ActionScript standards, but I am following my company's published C#
standard. You may have the better standard, but you don't write my paycheck.
My apologies to those of you who didn't want to see MXML in the ActionScript
forum. Technically, my issue was on the AS3 side of things.
Thanks again,
William Chadwick

In your code, you have a click handler bound to a MenuEvent function.
There is a MenuEvent event object as well. There can be only one.
Remove the click handler if you simply want to respond to the
itemClick event, which has its own handler.
About the function name- I am following my company's C# standard which
has

I don't know if it has a name, other than the convention followed by
most AS3, Java and C# programmers. Since it's a convention, I'm not
going to waste my time telling you it's the right way to do things, or
that you're doing things the wrong way, but in my own opinion it does
make things easier to follow.

Again, I'm pretty certain that the cause of your problem is the click
handler attached to your MenuBar.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash Cache in IE FF
Not sure what you want, as there is no text in your message. But if you want to know about how SharedObject's work, here you go. Local SharedObjects (AKA 'Flash Cookies') are stored in the following path in a directory with a random name: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects There are some really clear articles on them on Adobe's devnet.

[Flashcoders] Detecting what port Flash player chooses
When you use a RTMP connection string without specifying a port, the Flash Player attempts to make a connection to the Flash media Server specified using port 1935, then if that fails or times out it attempts the connection on 443 and then on port 80 and then attempts to tunnel RTMP through HTTP (RTMPT). My question, can you ask Flash Player which port it used? And if so, how? I would like to store the result in a SharedObject to prevent users from having to wait through this process next time.

[Flashcoders] Focus issues when Flex loads Flash 8 content
Objects (text boxes in particular) work fine in a Flash 8 movie loaded into Flex …that is unless you click on a flex object. At which point it doesn't want to give the focus back to the Flash 8 movie. Not even if you click on the text box a thousand times. However the tab key on the keyboard (in my application) allows you to click and then type in the Flash 8 text box. In my application, the Flash 9 text box is above the Flash 8 text box which might have something to do with why tab 'works' (of course tab doesn't give focus to the text box, you still have to click on it). It's not really acceptable to force the users to press tab between objects that look like they're part of the same application. Why can't I type in the text box anymore? I can just hear it. It is perfectly illustrated here: http://www.brandonellis.org/?p=9 I don't understand why this isn't a high priority with Adobe. I will not be able to convince my organization to rewrite these huge AS2 applications all at once, but if I could load the old application into Flex, I could do all new development and all fixes in AS3. An incremental approach is welcome. Can anyone help me with this issue?
