CAN YOU HERE ME, Ted???
The trick here is that I added 'myFoo.doFoo'
I don't see any trick i see just event handling.
Your issue is more walking a tree of custom objects. :)
So how should we walk an object tree? Top to bottom? Left to Right?
Big to Small?
Should we walk all properties?
Should we only walk objects of a certain type?
How should we handle duplicate references?
How should we handle circular references?
How should we handle object identity?
Should we embed this logic into the player or make this
customizable?
If you asking such questions YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS TREE. Read
please some information about different types of collections (Hash,
Tree, Vector etc.) and than ask non-dummy question and i'll give you
response. However in my previous message was simple interface that
gives all the responses if you have some experience in oo design.
The new DOM event model is extensible, simple to use, and easy to
understand once you get the hand of it.
And DOM model is designed for TREE of objects, but we cannot use it in
non-visual tree, that because ITS BAD DESIGNED.
Again I will go on record as saying there isn't anything that I
would change. :)
It's just because you don't know how to make it better.

1.5 Code Quality
I had no possibility to reply, cause it was weekend, sorry.
Your last post was child-like, but i'll try to take it seriously for
a
moment, cause someone can read this and think that it makes sense.
1. When you will have a possibility to compile AS code into swf
using AS,
when you will have AppDomains in AS, when you will have WMI (or
smthn like
that) etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. , when you will have flex framework
embeded
into flash player (22.4 M it's not only runtime) THAN YOU WILL
COMPARE
WEIGHT OF FLASH PLAYER AND .NET FRAMEWORK. It's NOT about
technologie it's
about event model. We don't need another .NET we have one allready.
2. We have allready untiped functors in flash. C# delegate it's only
strong-typed functor. If you think that embeding this kind of
functors
into flash player takes a lot of weight you are wrong.
3. If you can't take things in general i'll show you small example
why
current event model is bad designed.
Imagine that you have some tree of objects (non visual). you want to
use
bubbling, capturing etc. in this tree( i can show you wide range of
tasks
when it usefull in non visual objects). Now we have no possibility
to do
that. But for such task some simple interface like
interface IChildDispatcher extends IEventDispatcher {
public function get parent() : IEventDispatcher;//or it can returns
IChildDispatcher if you like
}
is enough. Of course we can create such interface, then rewrite
EventDispatcher then use bubbling etc. but FOR WHAT??
What do you thin about this ex.?

Why would the data not be showing up in the DataGrid?

PS - I take it the resultFormat of a WebService called via AS is

why

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Question to Adobe about Flex Framework 1.5 Code Quality
And DOM model is designed for TREE of objects, but we cannot
use it in non-visual tree, that because ITS BAD DESIGNED.
---
WITH FLEX 2 YOU CAN SUPPORT THIS TODAY, YOU ARE NOT RESTRICTED.
---
I believe that adding this into the player or Flex by default would be a
mistake.
Here is my logic:
1. DOM Events exist to give context to user interaction on the DisplayList.
These events originate on the visual layer of the application where elements
are exposed to Mouse, Keyboard, DisplayObject events. Only objects that extend
DisplayObject can be added to the DisplayList, custom classes can listen
through a DisplayObject's events but they are not directly on the DisplayList.
2. Any object can listen for events at any node of the DisplayList tree. (I
posted an example of this) This allows custom classes to participate in events
from the DisplayList.
3. How events are processed within custom classes is the class's responsibility
(read: encapsulation). If your class needs events to walk its children, then
implement it.
Here is an example of event processing with custom classes using trees:
package {
import flash.util.trace;
import flash.events.*
public class FooClass extends EventDispatcher {
public var children:Array = [];
public function FooClass(){
this.addEventListener( 'resize' , processEvent )
}
public function processEvent( event:Event ){
for( var i:uint=0 ; i children.length ; i++ ){
children[i].dispatchEvent( event );
}
}
public function addChild( child:Object ){
children.push( child );
}
}
}
// AS code within AS3/Flex application:
// Build a tree of custom classes
// create a root object
rootFoo = new FooClass();
// add child objects
rootFoo.addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.addChild( new FooClass() )
// add more child objects
rootFoo.children[0].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].addChild( new FooClass() )
// add more more child objects
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].addChild( new FooClass() )
// dispatch an event to walk children
rootFoo.dispatchEvent( new Event('resize') );
In this case, at each level I am using an Array to hold children events would
be processed like so:
rootFoo.children[0].children[0]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].children[0]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].children[1]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].children[2]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1]
rootFoo.children[0].children[2]
rootFoo.children[0]
rootFoo.children[1]
rootFoo.children[2]
rootFoo
In adding listeners in the constructor, this forces child objects to have event
precedence in the tree. At each level the events will process to the deepest
child and then handle events upward based on the order events were added into
each node.
If you wanted to see different pattern of event processing, simply change the
eventProcessor method or how listeners are added to fit your needs.
It really is wide open.
Hope this helps!

WITH FLEX 2 YOU CAN SUPPORT THIS TODAY, YOU ARE NOT RESTRICTED.

I believe that adding this into the player or Flex by default would
be a mistake.
Here is my logic:
1. DOM Events exist to give context to user interaction on the
DisplayList. These events originate on the visual layer of the
application where elements are exposed to Mouse, Keyboard,
DisplayObject events. Only objects that extend DisplayObject can be
added to the DisplayList, custom classes can listen through a
DisplayObject's events but they are not directly on the DisplayList.
2. Any object can listen for events at any node of the DisplayList
tree. (I posted an example of this) This allows custom classes to
participate in events from the DisplayList.
3. How events are processed within custom classes is the class's
responsibility (read: encapsulation). If your class needs events to
walk its children, then implement it.
Here is an example of event processing with custom classes using
trees:
package {
import flash.util.trace;
import flash.events.*
public class FooClass extends EventDispatcher {
public var children:Array = [];
public function FooClass(){
this.addEventListener( 'resize' , processEvent )
}
public function processEvent( event:Event ){
for( var i:uint=0 ; i children.length ; i++ ){
children[i].dispatchEvent( event );
}
}
public function addChild( child:Object ){
children.push( child );
}
}
}
// AS code within AS3/Flex application:
// Build a tree of custom classes
// create a root object
rootFoo = new FooClass();
// add child objects
rootFoo.addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.addChild( new FooClass() )
// add more child objects
rootFoo.children[0].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].addChild( new FooClass() )
// add more more child objects
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].addChild( new FooClass() )
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].addChild( new FooClass() )
// dispatch an event to walk children
rootFoo.dispatchEvent( new Event('resize') );
In this case, at each level I am using an Array to hold children
events would be processed like so:
rootFoo.children[0].children[0]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].children[0]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].children[1]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1].children[2]
rootFoo.children[0].children[1]
rootFoo.children[0].children[2]
rootFoo.children[0]
rootFoo.children[1]
rootFoo.children[2]
rootFoo
In adding listeners in the constructor, this forces child objects to
have event precedence in the tree. At each level the events will
process to the deepest child and then handle events upward based on
the order events were added into each node.
If you wanted to see different pattern of event processing, simply
change the eventProcessor method or how listeners are added to fit
your needs.
It really is wide open.
Hope this helps!

RE: [flexcoders] Flex1.5: Limit of series a graph component can have
There are no hardcoded limits that I know of, it all comes down to performance - CPU and memory. I'd still like to see an instance of what this sort of graph would look like. Unless you're doing a scatterplot (and given the amount of data you're talking about, perhaps even in that case), its sounding like you're significantly oversampling screen resolution, which doesn't make sense from a graph design perspective. You're not going to be able to read any information out of the plot, it will just look like mud. On a 1000x1000 pixel graph with zero overlap and one pixel per datapoint, you're covering 10% of the available surface area with 100k samples. Of course, you're not actually going to use one pixel per datapoint (as that totally hides extrema), so you're probably getting up into the 50% of the available surface area painted in at this point. There's no information there. Mud. Have you read Edward Tufte's books? I think your best approach (never mind Flex, just in general) is to separate the plotted data from the actual data. Reduce the actual data to a representation that can be plotted and interpreted by humans - bars with high/low extrema, click to zoom, etc. It isn't a failing of Flex that 100,000 datapoints can't reasonably be plotted on a normal chart, its a failing of all normal chart types. You need to come up with a better representation. I could be totally off-base and misinterpreting your needs, though. -rg -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of RAMOS CARDONA JESUS SALVADOR Sent: Tuesday, April 11, 2006 8:22 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Flex1.5: Limit of series a graph component can have I don't think they would want to resample or view chunks of data as a graph detail.

Max,
I think I have been professional here and other would agree.
I have listened to you, tried to understand, and posted code to help.
Please keep Flexcoders professional, it is not personal. :)
Flash/Flex is simple for a reason. As a platform, it was designed to create
light and fast distributed applications. I think it accomplishes this design
better than any technology to date and it will continue to improve.
Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing left to add, but when there
is nothing left to remove. - Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Question to Adobe about Flex Framework 1.5 Code Quality
I don't think you should change working code only because it's doesn't have the perfect design, but that might just me. Of course, you can do something refactoring.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex1.5: Limit of series a graph component can have
Thank you for your answer, Roger. I agree with the uselessness of a 100k point chart, and I have had long arguments with my superiors regarding the actual need of this, but I backed out after I was introduced to the political issues regarding this project. As I stated before, this is more a political issue than a practical issue. Regards.

I'd still like to see an instance of what this sort of graph would look like.

You're not going to be able to read any information out of the plot, it will just look like mud. On a 1000x1000 pixel graph with zero overlap and one pixel per datapoint, you're covering 10% of the available surface area with 100k samples. Of course, you're not actually going to use one pixel per datapoint (as that totally hides extrema), so you're probably getting up into the 50% of the available surface area painted in at this point. There's no information there. Mud. Have you read Edward Tufte's books? I think your best approach (never mind Flex, just in general) is to separate the plotted data from the actual data. Reduce the actual data to a representation that can be plotted and interpreted by humans - bars with high/low extrema, click to zoom, etc. It isn't a failing of Flex that 100,000 datapoints can't reasonably be plotted on a normal chart, its a failing of all normal chart types.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex1.5: Limit of series a graph component can have
Is it possible? Yes. Will it have reasonable performance? Probably not, but it's a really easy test to find out. Charts probably will not perform well under this load, but I'm not sure you'll even get that far. First you have to send 200k floats over the wire, and deserialize them in the player, which has its own performance problems. So, I'd say, write a quick test and see how it feels. But in general, I'd agree with Roger, you're better off aggregating your data in some way and displaying that. If that's not an option, then you might want to seek out other alternatives. (btw, if you want to use flex, one reasonable alternative would be to use flex for the application, but generate the chart on the server using one of the many server side chart generation packages out there that render to bitmaps, and just displaying the bitmap in the flex app).

RE: [flexcoders] labelfuction and column chart questions
1) write a custom renderer for your columnseries. This renderer should
fill the columns with the standard color, _unless_ it's filling the
selected index. Something like this:
Class MyCustomRenderer
{
public var index:Number;
public var selectedIndex:Number;
function beginDraw(...)
{
index = 0;
}
function draw(...)
{
if (index == selectedindex)
{
// draw in selected color
}
else
{
// draw in normal color
}
index++;
}
}
Then set the selected index in a mouseOverData function:
mx:ColumnChart
mouseOverData=event.hitData.element.renderer.selectedIndex =
event.hitData.index;event.hitData.element.invalidate()
mx:series
mx:Array
mx:ColumnSeries
mx:renderer
MyCustomRenderer /
Or something to that effect.
2) not really possible in Flex 1.5.
Both of these are much more doable in Flex 2.
Ely.

[flexcoders] Maintaining documentation in Flex App in property file / xml file
Hi, How can I use a resource property file in Flex. I want to store the static component labels as well as error messages / alert messages of the application in a property file or an xml file. When Flex loads the mxml or application throws error message etc., it should get the description of the message dynamically from the property file. Basically, I am looking for a Flex equivalent for a ApplicationResources.properties file in Struts. How can I do this? Does anybody have any sample code for this to try out.

[flexcoders] Possible to invoke Flex2b2 compiler as a Java class?
I'd like to invoke the Flex2b2 compiler from ColdFusion using the Java class, if possible. I looked at the file MANIFEST.MF in mxmlc.jar, and saw: Main-Class: flex2.tools.Compiler So, I tried this in CF: Application.com.MXMLc = Application.com.URLClassLoader.LoadJarClass(CompilerPath, flex2.tools.Compiler); That works, and I can CFDUMP the object to see a list of its methods and properties, but: - I can't set the property FILE_SPECS: I get an java.lang.IllegalAccessException with the message: field is final - I can't invoke the compile method. My code is: Application.com.MXMLc.compile(JavaCast(String, MxmlPath)); I get the CF message The selected method compile was not found. Can anyone shed some light on this? Is it documented anywhere? I apologize if this is silly; I'm expert with CFML but not experienced with Java interaction. I did try to just use CFEXECUTE at first, with mxmlc.exe, but had trouble with it. I've always found CFEXECUTE frustrating, so I thought I'd give this approach a try. Thanks!

RE: [flexcoders] Flex2B2: cannot convert flash.display::SimpleButton to mx.core.IUIComponent
What does your component extend? If you're
extending a Container, you can only use addChild() to content children which implement
the IUIComponent interface. In order to support the LayoutManager, a content
child has to implement things like measure(), etc.
However you should able to add it as a
non-content or chrome child by doing rawChildren.addChild(myButton).
Non-content children don't undergo automatic sizing and layout, so you'll have
to set the size and position of myButton yourself.

[flexcoders] F2B2: Canvas clipping problem
I have a Canvas that I'm programatically adding an image after a drag and drop. The method is a simple call to canvas.addChild(image); I've explicitly set clipContent to true, and scroll policies to auto, but still if the image is dropped slightly to the left or above the canvas (x or y is a negative value) the image does not clip but overflows the Canvas border. No scrollbars are created. The DD operation allows the drop because it seems to base dropability on the mouse position, not on the image boundaries, which may be offset from the image's 0,0.

[flexcoders] AS3 Array Question
I'm trying to populate a dataProvider array for a comboBox that
contains unique status values from another array, that is used as
the dataProvider for a dataGrid. The comboBox is used to filter the
dataGrid. The code below works, but I seem to remember seeing this
done somewhere that doesn't use nested for statements. Does anyone
know how I can identify if the array's status value already exists
in the new status array without iterating the new array every time?
public function populateStatusArray(array:Array):void {
var status : Array = new Array;
status.push(All);
var n:int = citations.length;
for (var i:int = 0; i n; i++) {
var m:int = status.length;
var found:Boolean = false;
for (var j:int = 0; j m; j++) {
if (status[j] == array[i].status){
found = true;
}
}
if (found == false) {
status.push(array[i].status);
}
}
status.sort();
ModelLocator.getInstance().statusArray = status;
}
Thank You,

RE: [flexcoders] Re: AS3 Array Question
You can use a plain Object as a Set... see the code below.
You first put key/value pairs into the Object, but it makes no
difference what the values are. You just care about the keys, and the
Object's hash table takes care of ensuring that setting a key more than
once is harmless.
Then you iterate over the Object, pulling out the unique keys into an
Array that can be sorted.
Finally, you stick All at the top, after the sort.

RE: [flexcoders] um, where is my session?
Hi, Well it depends on what you are doing. I don't know if this is your first try at building Flex applications or not and if it is, then perhaps this explains why you are asking this question. With building RIAs you no longer need to maintain the state of the application in various session objects as we have all done in the past when using JSPs and such. You can now concentrate everything in a global model object (see ModelLocator in Cairngorm) to do this for you. Perhaps you can give us a quick use-case of what you are doing, and then maybe we can provide any explanations you might need. Dimitrios Gianninas RIADeveloper Optimal Payments Inc.

[flexcoders] Re: um, where is my session?
I think its too simplistic to think you can always store all state in the RIA. The problem is it makes an assumption that the application is very homogenous. I think you will find that over time these more complex applications are a mixture of Flex, Flash and HTML. The ability to maintain session state across these elements using a servant session is going to definately have value. It is absolutely true that one of the biggest advantages of the RIA is that you can get away from the primitive page-centric request response architecture where you have no choice but to maintain state in the server. I just want to say I think that the session has real-world value and we cant just write it off. -- Dave Wolf Cynergy Systems, Inc.

I have a TileList that gets populated from a WebService search
results and that works fine, I wanted to change it to a RemoteObject

mx:Model id=searchCriteria
filter /
/mx:Model
mx:WebService id=EmployeeService
wsdl=http://MyIPAddress:myPort/CFIDE/components/ContactManagerCFC.cfc
?WSDL
useProxy=false
showBusyCursor=true
mx:operation name=search
mx:request
searchCriteria{searchCriteria.filter}/searchCriteria
/mx:request
/mx:operation
/mx:WebService
mx:ArrayCollection id=searchResults
source={mx.utils.ArrayUtil.toArray(EmployeeService.search.result)}
/mx:ArrayCollection
And the TileList:
mx:TileList id=myList dataProvider={searchResults}
columnCount=1 change=selectedItem =
event.target.selectedItem;ViewEmployeeVisible()
height=100% width=100% textRollOverColor=#99
textAlign=left
