[flexcoders] create XML from file
Hi List, I use Cairngorm 0.99 in my app and I have a problem with the ModelLocator. If I got the idea of the ModelLocator right, all value models shall be stored in the ModelLocator. In my app I use XML instead of Value Objects and I don't know how to instantiate XML objects in the ModelLocator from a file. In MXML the construct mx:Model id=some_id source=some_file.xml / can be used. In AS I know the method new XML() like var my_xml = new XML(?xml version=./); but I don't know how to create a XML object from a file. Can you help me with that issue? Christoph Yahoo!

Hi Matt, Sure I have, but the interesting chapter is missing: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?href=""> The current docs is mostly simple stuff. What I am looking for is a description of the component model, i.e. a component life cycle description including required implemented interfaces/extensions/abstract methods (and why), layout model, and hooks etc. Perhaps also couple of UML diagrams...? In other words a description detailed enough so that i don't have to pester busy guys like yourself with more or less trivial questions :o) I know this is an alpha release, so it is perhaps to early for this kind of stuff?

[flexcoders] Re: ZORN and Flex server
Alberto, The serverless version of Zorn is able to use mx:HttpService/ and mx:WebService since neither of these data services connections requires a server-side proxy. Using mx:RemoteObject however does require a proxy, as would using data services which connect to another server other then the one the swf was downloaded from, unless you are able to deploy a crossdomain.xml file. The Enterprise Data Services version of Zorn isnt released yet, but would include the proxy. -- Dave Wolf Cynergy Systems, Inc.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Question about Enable / Disable Validator
From a cairngorm View Helper you should usually use syntax like: mx.validators.Validator.disable(view, modelName.elementName); There isnt really a current document in flex, the first argument you need to provide is just a reference to the document that the mx:Model you are validating against was declared on.

Whats strange is we also get a _javascript_ error when this happens. The html source is published to the page but no swf is then viewable. The _javascript_ error says the following variable is underfined: lc_id .Looking at the source code the following line is obviously pulling in some _javascript_:script language='_javascript_' charset='utf-8' src='/Symph/flex-internal?action="">/scriptNow the _javascript_ error Im getting suggests this file is not loaded.Has anyone come across the situation where jrun stops serving pages? Restarting it twice seems to wake it back up.TaSteve -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com YAHOO!

[flexcoders] Re: Question about Enable / Disable Validator
What if you have several documents of the same name open? Would you have instantiated a viewHelper for each one? Otherwise when referring to the document by name from the viewHelper, how would you know which open document you are actually addressing? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Michael Herron [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From a cairngorm View Helper you should usually use syntax like: mx.validators.Validator.disable(view, modelName.elementName); There isn't really a current document in flex, the first argument you need to provide is just a reference to the document that the mx:Model you are validating against was declared on.

RE: [flexcoders] AddTreeNode sometimes does not add but instead replaces the top node.
I actually found out what was happening. I assigned the selectedNode to two different local variables, then delete the child nodes from one of them thinking that it would be independent from the other one. This was actually not true since although I assigned the node to two different variables both of them point to the same object in memory. I figured out how to use the same variable without deleting the child nodes and it is working now. Example: var nodeA = myNode.getTreeNodeAt( location); var nodeB= myNode.getTreeNodeAt( location); for ( nodeA lenght) delete child Nodes - This also changes nodeB, which is the one I was using for my AddTreeNode Matt Chotin To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Sent by: Subject: RE: [flexcoders] AddTreeNode sometimes does not add but instead replaces the flexcoders@yahoogroups.com top node. 11/16/2005 02:01 AM Please respond to flexcoders Not that I can see from your description so you might need to give us more code… From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 11:25 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] AddTreeNode sometimes does not add but instead replaces the top node.

[flexcoders] fill ComboBox with XML received by RemoteObject
Hi List, I tried to fill a ComboBox with XML received by a RemoteObject - with no success. The result of the RemoteObject is a String in which is XML Content. If I create a Model by mx:Model id=my_id source=my_xml_file / and bind the ComboBox to my_id everything works fine. I searched the web and found a AS class XMLHelper http://www.cflex.net/showfiledetails.cfm?ObjectID=243 , but the results of this classe are not suitable for a ComboBox. I further searched the web and found how to load dynamically XML using HTTPService http://www.cflex.net/showfiledetails.cfm?ObjectID=103 This seems to be interesting, but I think this only can be used with XML files. Of course it is possible to parse the String received by the RemoteObject and build a model ( well - I wasn't successful here, too ), but isn't there any cheap trick to do something in Actionscript with a XML String which has exactly the same result as mx:Model with a XML file?

[flexcoders] how to addChild from as3 class into mxml component
Hi list !
I'm from Flash, and like to develop in Form based mode.
I try Flex Builder since 2 days, and try to have the same behaviour with
Flex application, but have some problems to implement basic interface.
I (want to) use AS3 class to make my code, and MXML to display.
In my Application mxml file, there is a stackView :
mx:ViewStack id=viewStack1 borderStyle=solid
mx:layoutConstraints
mx:EdgeAnchor top=25 left=0 right=0
bottom=30/
/mx:layoutConstraints
test:Welcome id=welcome label=Welcome
/test:Welcome
/mx:ViewStack
the test:Welcome component extends my own class (extends
mx.containers.Form) : Welcome.as, and is contained into Welcome.mxml file.
// Welcome.mxml
// -
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
test:Welcome
xmlns:test=ch.titouille.test.views.*
xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml;
xmlns=*
creationComplete=initForm( event );
width=100%
/test:Welcome
// Welcome.as
// -
package ch.titouille.geneastro.views
{
import mx.containers.Form;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.util.trace;
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Welcome extends Form
{
public function Welcome()
{
}
public function initForm( evt:Event ):Void
{
trace( 'Welcome initForm called !!' );
onInitForm();
}
public function onInitForm():Void
{
var t:Array;
const SIZE:uint = 100;
t = [
{ data:1, label:test1, position:{x:20, y:20} },
{ data:2, label:test2, position:{x:120, y:20} },
{ data:3, label:test3, position:{x:220, y:20} },
{ data:4, label:test4, position:{x:320, y:20} },
{ data:5, label:test5, position:{x:60, y:120} },
{ data:6, label:test6, position:{x:280, y:120} },
{ data:7, label:test7, position:{x:160, y:220} },
];
for( var i:Number = 0; i t.length; i++ )
{
var item:Object = t[i];
var s:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
s.graphics.beginFill(0xff);
s.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, SIZE, SIZE);
s.graphics.endFill();
s.x = item.position.x;
s.y = item.position.y;
addChild( s );
}
}
}
}
And the problem is the following : at execution, when player go into the
for loop, it stop at addChild( s ); line and return an error like that :
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coersion failed: cannot convert
flash.display::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.core.UIComponent
I have tried with MovieClip and Sprite classes, and with casting, but no
changes, I always have this error.
Anyone can explain me my error ?? It's possible to attach controls at
mx.core.Application.application place... But it's not possible to make
same thing in another place ?
Thanks for any answer.

Re: [flexcoders] how to addChild from as3 class into mxml component
You cannot add children to an Application that are not of type UIComponent.
So, try something like:
var u:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
addChild(u);
var s:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
u.addChild(s);

Re: [flexcoders] sessions and maintenance questions
Dimitrios,
Sounds like your solution may solve a similar issue for a project I'm working on. Can you explainhow thecustom authentication relates to a timeout? Is it the only way to get one of the two fault codes you're checking for? Also, I checked
web.xml and I don't see any timeout setting.
Thanks,

Hi Robert,
To answer the first part, with our Flex applications we no longer store any data in the server session. We load any required data by the UI at start-upand cache it in a global model (ModelLocator if you are using Cairngorm). As for the session
timeout, we config out RemoteObject to use custom authentication, as follows:
use-custom-authenticationtrueuse-custom-authentication
Then we config the session timeout in the web.xml to say 60 minutes. So if some user sayleaves for a lng lunch and returns after 2 hours, the next remote called made will be rejected. We catch this in the
Services.mxml and return the user to the login view. Sample:
/**
* Handles failed authentication faults and re-routes regular application faults.
*/
function handleRemoteFault( event ):Void {
if( event.fault.faultcode
== Client.Authentication || event.fault.faultcode == 401 ) {
EventBroadcaster.getInstance().broadcastEvent( EventList.LOGOFF );
}
else {
event.call.faultHandler( event );
}
}
/mx:Script
!-- SystemServices remote reference --
mx:RemoteObject id=systemServices named=systemService concurrency=single
result=event.call.resultHandler(event.result)
fault=handleRemoteFault( event )
showBusyCursor=true /
This handles the server restart scenario as well.
As for the second portion, I don't believe there is anyway to tell the user that hey, we are doing a maintenance right now. Since the server is not available, the remote call will simply hang.

flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: [flexcoders] sessions and maintenance questions
I have a question for you guys about how you're currently designing your Flex applications.
Since a Flex application is not session-based in the sense of an application server session, how are you guys handling, say, you want a user to have to log back in if they remain inactive after 5 hours in the case of using remote objects? You're not making actual HTTP requests in that case…are you still storing variables in the application server session upon start of a client's session and checking the status of those variables every time a remote method call is made? Do you have some sort of filter that filters every remote method call to check every time? What about if the application server needs to be restarted in the middle of the day…granted the client doesn't have any knowledge of this, do you just allow them to keep going without having to log back in or do you force them to log back in and if this is the case, how does the client application become away of such a change and the need for the user to have to log back in? What are you using to flag that status change in the case of remote objects?
Also…we want to have weekly and possibly, daily database maintenance periods…say from 2 am to 3 am. If, for some reason, one of our clients is logged into the site at that ungodly hour, right before they start performing maintenance, and has successfully logged in and started using out site, then the user tries to execute some action during the maintenance period, we want to throw them a little message saying the site is currently undergoing maintenance, and to try again later, and then forward the user to a maintenance page, the same maintenance page any other client would see if they came to our URL DURING the actual maintenance going on. What would be the best way to handle this? Change a variable in
web.xml and restart the application server? I use remote objects for everything I do within the application, if I changed some variable in the web.xml file, that means I'd have to add code to every single method in all of my delegate classes to check the status of this variable every time a call is made before continuing on with the actual method call. Is there a more elegant way of doing this? Much like a servlet filter works?
Any help is greatly appreciated,

RE: [flexcoders] Flash player 8.5 auto install?
I know its possible with SMS too. SMS is a Microsoft software that you can use to deploy software enterprise wide without users intervention. However there might be some time that you dont have privilege to such facilities for one reason or another. But I observed by boss do something really neat sometimes ago. You know the meta tags usually at the top of html pages that usually point to www.macromedia.com/blah/player??? He replaced the www.macromedia.com part of the meta tag with a local path on the intra server such that it look like http://myserver/components/player6.cab etc And when I try to access a page with flash from that server from a PC that has no flash player plug in, the player will be autoinstalled without my interference and the flash content become available immediately on the same page. All done transparently. Thats the same kind of thing I was hoping may be possible with FP8 J Any more ideas???

We use the same approach as Dimitrios exmplained.
if not in your web.xml file, just add it inside the web-app tag (from the JRun perspective)
session-configsession-timeout60/session-timeout/session-configfor a 60 minute timeout.DK

user that hey, we are doing a maintenance right now. Since the server
is not available, the remote call will simply hang.

flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: [flexcoders] sessions and maintenance questions
I have a question for you guys about how you're currently designing your Flex applications.
Since
a Flex application is not session-based in the sense of an application
server session, how are you guys handling, say, you want a user to have
to log back in if they remain inactive after 5 hours in the case of
using remote objects? You're not making actual HTTP requests in
that case…are you still storing variables in the application server
session upon start of a client's session and checking the status of
those variables every time a remote method call is made? Do you
have some sort of filter that filters every remote method call to check
every time? What about if the application server needs to be
restarted in the middle of the day…granted the client doesn't have any
knowledge of this, do you just allow them to keep going without having
to log back in or do you force them to log back in and if this is the
case, how does the client application become away of such a change and
the need for the user to have to log back in? What are you using
to flag that status change in the case of remote objects?
Also…we
want to have weekly and possibly, daily database maintenance
periods…say from 2 am to 3 am. If, for some reason, one of our
clients is logged into the site at that ungodly hour, right before they
start performing maintenance, and has successfully logged in and
started using out site, then the user tries to execute some action
during the maintenance period, we want to throw them a little message
saying the site is currently undergoing maintenance, and to try again
later, and then forward the user to a maintenance page, the same
maintenance page any other client would see if they came to our URL
DURING the actual maintenance going on. What would be the best
way to handle this? Change a variable in web.xml and restart the
application server? I use remote objects for everything I do
within the application, if I changed some variable in the web.xml file,
that means I'd have to add code to every single method in all of my
delegate classes to check the status of this variable every time a call
is made before continuing on with the actual method call. Is
there a more elegant way of doing this? Much like a servlet
filter works?
Any help is greatly appreciated,

In Flex 1.5 this was a built-in capability of the server if you wanted it configured.

[flexcoders] downloading fonts dynamically
I'm looking for a mechanism to download embedded fonts dynamically, i.e. at runtime, as the user selects them through the UI. I don't want to simply embed all the fonts in my SWF, because they're too large. And putting them into an RSL doesn't do what I want either, because the entire RSL still has to get preloaded. I would like to be able to selectively download just the fonts the user requests at runtime. I can embed fonts into SWF's that I load at runtime as children of my main application... but while the fonts are available within the child SWF's, I haven't seen any way to access them from the main SWF which loads them. RSL's somehow avoid this problem (a font inside an RSL *is* available to the application which loads it), but I haven't been able to figure out what the magic is. Any ideas? I'll happily take suggestions for either Flex 1.5 or 2.0. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Not going to debate the charts issue, but...

[flexcoders] Re: ioError # 2038 - Any help?
After even more research - I'm pretty much convinced that Flash 8.5 is presenting the problem. I say that because the sample app located at http://labs.oinam.com/flash8/fileuploaddownload/ workes fine for me in IE and FireFox when I have Flash 8.0 installed - when I update to 8.5 I get the ioError on the larger files. (Same error in both IE and FireFox). Unfortunatly, you can only run Flex2 code in 8.5 - thus the reason my code won't allow for large downloads.

RE: [flexcoders] downloading fonts dynamically
If you use 2.0, I think this is doable, although you'll need to write
some AS code.
Fonts in RSLs are available to the application because they are loaded
to the same application domain as the app itself.
Fonts in child application domains are (probably? I should check
this...) not accessible to the application. Fonts have a semi-useless
AS3 facade; this will hopefully improve, but for now they're mostly
old-sk00l Flash tech.
Note that the Flex UI controls do some magic about checking the faces
found in the embedded font list hanging off the system manager. This
list is built because there is no native way to introspect what classes
are embedded at runtime (grr!) The low-level Flash TextField stuff
doesn't care about this list, of course, so for initially getting the
dynamic aspect working, I'd first try building things using TextFields
and the low-level Flash API, then move to fooling the Flex frameworks
via the embedded font list.
Here's a snippet from UITextFormat:
var sm:ISystemManager = systemManager;
if (font)
measurementTextField.embedFonts =
isFontFaceEmbedded( sm, this );
else
measurementTextField.embedFonts = false;
where isFontFaceEmbedded is:
public static function isFontFaceEmbedded(sm:ISystemManager,
textFormat:TextFormat):Boolean
{
var fontName:String = textFormat.font;
if (!fontName || !sm || !sm.embeddedFontList ||
!sm.embeddedFontList[fontName])
{
return false;
}
var info:Object = sm.embeddedFontList[fontName];
return !((textFormat.bold !info.bold) || (textFormat.italic
!info.italic) || (!textFormat.bold !textFormat.italic
!info.plain));
}

Subject: [flexcoders] downloading fonts dynamically
I'm looking for a mechanism to download embedded fonts dynamically,
i.e. at runtime, as the user selects them through the UI. I don't
want to simply embed all the fonts in my SWF, because they're too
large. And putting them into an RSL doesn't do what I want either,
because the entire RSL still has to get preloaded. I would
like to be
able to selectively download just the fonts the user requests at
runtime.
I can embed fonts into SWF's that I load at runtime as children of my
main application... but while the fonts are available within
the child
SWF's, I haven't seen any way to access them from the main SWF which
loads them. RSL's somehow avoid this problem (a font inside an RSL
*is* available to the application which loads it), but I haven't been
able to figure out what the magic is.
Any ideas? I'll happily take suggestions for either Flex 1.5 or 2.0.

One thing to check is what the CFC is return from the function call by writing a .cfm to call the function the same way. Another test is to check what the CFC is recieving in it's arguments.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Charting Components 2 distribution
If you look at it from an angst ridden Flasher would, then suddenly you'll understand why these comments continue to appear. I fought adversity, and fought to a completely alien, non-corroborted, un-tested and unproven technology; using Flash to make internet applications. I fought the ignorance, continually ignore the spite from my peers, ignore the wining (and dying) Director developers. I wrote books, articles, blog entries, and spoke at conferences to help educate endorse the technology I love and use daily. In effect, I was a part of, and helped make the RIA revolution. Suddenly, Macromedia creates an improved workflow, a much needed paradigm shift in the way Flash apps are made.. and prices it out of my market? WTF!?

The fact weve spent such a large amount of money on the app, yet the IIS connector appears to be unreliable is just not on.

RE: [flexcoders] fill ComboBox with XML received by RemoteObject
The resultFormat for RemoteObject defaults to object. Are you sure you do not already have an object in your result? Use a handler function and inspect the result object in a debugger. Often the issue with dataProviders is determining the exact reference pointing at the necessary array. For instance, sometimes you need event.result[0]. If you really have a string of xml, you could load it into an XML class object and use that as the dataProvider. Currently, referencing the correct nodes/attributes in XML is a bit clumsy, but I prefer it to the black-box conversion of xml to mx:Object that Flex does automatically. And unless your data and label properties are top-level attributes of the item nodes, you might need to use a label function: http://www.cflex.net/showfiledetails.cfm?ObjectID=258 And in Flex 2, the XML class is significantly enhanced.

Refactoring of Flex applications is no fun - there are to many areas that can break and go unchecked - your best line of defense (as 10 years ago)is still to amount the least amount of code and use more reliable components. That is were Frameworks come in the play - by advertising that the code in them has been used and tested and does 80% of what you need to do. I personally do not like frameworks. They usually evolve out of applications. That imposes 2 problems: 1. The problem is thatit have to fit. Let us say you are building motorbikes, cars and trucks. You can share concepts, but not the complex parts - they would either brake or would not fit. At best, you would have smaller thing that are interchangeable - nuts and bolts and signals. Can I reuse the shopping cart? Not likely, not without refactoring that would be bigger effort then writing from scratch. Serving 20 requests /sec and 2,000 require me to build differently - no abstraction survives the load, sorry. There is one thing that is indeed shared by companies making bikes, cars, trucks, planes, etc - tools to make concept into a product and base components. 2. Second problem is that frameworks formalize the process of building software by providing the coding style to adhere to. Some people call it patterns, some experience, but in the end it is just the base language constructs youare thinking with. It offers communication platform for larger group of people by abstraction.Internet revolution was a cultural shock that introduced most ofpatterns as the only way to express yourself as the sizes of development teams went out of control. Lack of tools caused use of manpower instead of tools, canned designs and manufacturing instead of custom design and engineering. It works, do not get me wrong, but it reaps most of the developers from the main benefit of intellectual work - creativity and individualism. I think that part of Flex community might want an alternative to frameworksand that alternative isTooling and Components. Here is simple test: 1.Try not to use some framework or library or component for a week. Change remoteObject to WebService or XML/HTTP Request. At the end of the week look at code thathas been done and you would see that you created better performing, more powerful way to do things that fits better your style and applications. 2. Now try not to use your favorite IDE (Eclipse or such) or code generator (Struts or Tapestry ) and observe amount of code or extra steps you are making. In a week you are worse then before as your productivity is down and no solution is coming. For the last 15 yearscompany I am working atwould spend at least 50% of my time manufacturing tools and components and the rest doing applications to make money while putting these tools/components to the test. Works both ways - you are getting reusable parts of applications as you manufacture them - and cleanly separate tools from components from application code. I think time came to put an effort in the creation of Flash/Flex components with high reusability - that would take away most of the framework appeal without giving false promises.

[flexcoders] Re: downloading fonts dynamically
Roger, thanks for the suggestions. Yes, I had found and been playing with the embedded font list used by by the Flex UI controls; and I've also been using the lower level TextField API's directly. So far, I've had no luck at all in getting dynamically loaded fonts to be recognized. You said: Fonts in RSLs are available to the application because they are loaded to the same application domain as the app itself. Fonts in child application domains are (probably? I should check this...) not accessible to the application. This is certainly consistent with everything I've found experiementally with Flex 1.5. And in Flex 2.0 alpha I'm stopped by the following error when trying to load a child SWF, if it has an embedded font in it: TypeError: Error #1009: null has no properties. at mx.managers::SystemManager/set fontList() at _LoadChild_FlexInit$/init() at mx.managers::SystemManager/SystemManager$71 $private::handleFrameEnd() I'm assuming this is a bug that will eventually be fixed, but what will the final behavior be? Will the same issue I'm seeing in Flex 1.5 -- fonts in child application domains are not accessible to the application --remain in Flex 2.0? And if so, is there any work-around? Yahoo!

RE: [flexcoders] sessions and maintenance questions
Hi Jamie,
Once you set the web session time to a
particular value, like so (in the web.xml):
session-config
session-timeout60/session-timeout
/session-config
Then what happens is, after 60 minutes of inactivity,
the next remote call will fail because the user is not longer authenticated at
the server level. And yes, the remote call will fail with one of the two
faultcodes mentioned below. So I essential kick the user back to the login page.
If you don't set your RemoteObjects to
use-custom-authentication, then none of this matters. Then will keep working
forever... not safe in a production environment at all.
Hope that helps!

Sounds like your solution may solve a similar issue for a project I'm

Hi Robert,
To answer the first part, with our Flex applications we no longer store
any data in the server session. We load any required data by the UI at
start-upand cache it in a global model (ModelLocator if you are using
Cairngorm). As for the session timeout,
we config out RemoteObject to use custom authentication, as
follows:
use-custom-authenticationtrueuse-custom-authentication
Then we config the session timeout in the web.xml to say 60 minutes. So if some user
sayleaves for a lng lunch and returns after 2 hours, the next remote
called made will be rejected. We catch this in the Services.mxml and return
the user to the login view. Sample:
/**
* Handles
failed authentication faults and re-routes regular application
faults.
*/
function
handleRemoteFault( event ):Void {
if(
event.fault.faultcode == "Client.Authentication" || event.fault.faultcode ==

This handles the server restart scenario as
well.
As for the second portion, I don't believe there is anyway to
tell the user that "hey, we are doing a maintenance right now". Since the
server is not available, the remote call will simply hang.

sessions and maintenance questions
I have a question
for you guys about how you're currently designing your Flex
applications.
Since a Flex
application is not session-based in the sense of an application server
session, how are you guys handling, say, you want a user to have to log back
in if they remain inactive after 5 hours in the case of using remote
objects? You're not making actual HTTP requests in that caseare you
still storing variables in the application server session upon start of a
client's session and checking the status of those variables every time a
remote method call is made? Do you have some sort of filter that filters
every remote method call to check every time? What about if the
application server needs to be restarted in the middle of the daygranted the
client doesn't have any knowledge of this, do you just allow them to keep
going without having to log back in or do you force them to log back in and if
this is the case, how does the client application become away of such a change
and the need for the user to have to log back in? What are you using to
flag that status change in the case of remote objects?
Alsowe want to
have weekly and possibly, daily database maintenance periodssay from 2 am to
3 am. If, for some reason, one of our clients is logged into the site at
that ungodly hour, right before they start performing maintenance, and has
successfully logged in and started using out site, then the user tries to
execute some action during the maintenance period, we want to throw them a
little message saying the site is currently undergoing maintenance, and to try
again later, and then forward the user to a

RE: [flexcoders] A problem of dataService
Use dot.down notation on the result object.
For example:
var oResult:Object = event.result[0]; //maybe just event.result this depends
on the actual structure of the result object
var sName:String = oResult.name;
Use a result handler function, call it from the result event in the data
service tag, and in that function, use a debugger to examine the structure of
your result object if needed.

RE: [flexcoders] Component Positioning question
I'm not doing Flex 2 yet, but only the mx:Canvas allows you to explicitly set x/y position. The other containers layout the children using their own logic. That is their purpose. A VBox, for example arranges its children vertically.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Image load time-out settings
This is all handled via the mixin ExternalContent.as. Basically, he starts off at 20 milliseconds, and continues polling every 20 * 1.5 milliseconds, each time increasing the wait. There is logic in there to handle security restrictions as well as full initialization. If you really don't care and just want a really really long wait, do: checkProgressIntervalLength = 10 * 1000; It's originally 20 milliseconds but that will set it to 10 seconds the first time, 15 the second time, 22 seconds the 3rd, etc. - Original Message - From: superabe superabe To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 8:18 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Image load time-out settings Resending this, in case somebody knows the answer.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Image load time-out settings
Some genious decided not to distribute the Flex 1.5 ActionScript source. The salt on open wounds route I take is to debug in FlexBuilder, and then when debugging, you'll see a white paper like icon next to the continue,stop buttons; this dropdown has all the classes you are debugging, in alphabetical order. ExternalContent is one of those. - Original Message - From: superabe superabe To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 10:17 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Re: Image load time-out settings Where is the ExternalContent.as class ?

RE: [flexcoders] Sandbox violations Flex2
You need a crossdomain.xml file at http://localhost/crossdomain.xml. Security.allowDomain is to allow SWFs from other domains to communicate with your SWF I believe. If you access your SWF from http://localhost instead of off your local filesystem you also wont get the error.

[flexcoders] Scrollbar placement
Old question, but did not find working solutions. I have a structure in a tab navigator (see below) and I would like to have the scrollbar (when needed) in a specific place. The tab contains a HBox and a Form. HBox is of fixed size and place and should always be visible - no scrollbar. The contents of the Form are created dynamically and are of various sizes and formats. The Form should have a scrollbar when needed. Now the scrollbar is always on parent container, VBox, so that the fixed-place HBox scrolls as well. Setting the sizes does not seem to help, neither does setting vScrollPolicy on various components. How can I force the scrollbar on the Form scrollableContents? mx:TabNavigator mx:VBox id=myTab width=100% height=100% mx:HBox id=fixedField width=100% height=40 !-- label and text inputs here, no scroll needed -- /mx:HBox mx:Form id=scrollableContents width=100% height=100% !-- contents: formitems etc. created dynamically with createChild()-- /mx:Form /mx:VBox !-- other tabs here -- /mx:TabNavigator Yahoo!
