[flexcoders] Flex 1.5 DataGrid with checkBox?
Hello all, I am trying to build a datagrid with the first column as checkboxes. and the header of the column serve as select all function. I use cellRenderer=mx.controls.CheckBox in the cellrenderer. and it really display the checkbox. However, after searching through the help, I am not quite sure how can i update the select properties according to the dataprovider? How can i refer these checkboxes? I have try to build my own renderer, and can successfully get the click event. Is that it is impossible for a direct binding of a field in the dataprovider to the select state? Thanks so much for any advance.

Re: [flexcoders] Fw: [BETA3] I found how can remove the selected item of mx.controls.Tree.
My understanding was that the XMLListCollection methods would
handle the needed events, but apparently not.
Well, it should, and maybe this just isn't completly worked out yet in
the Tree class. When you do anything to a collection be it XML or
Objects, it will produce a COLLECTION_CHANGE event that has the
CollectionEventKind type that you then use to figure out what happened.
I know the Tree is pipped into this when the dataProvider is set. Must be a bug or something that is not completly wired.
Peace, Mike

, I found another way
to do this, using XMLListCollection. Strangely, I still have to call
invalidateList to get the tree to refresh. My understanding was that the
XMLListCollection methods would handle the needed events, but apparently
not.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: flex2b3 - adding a button to a textinput
Hi,
Off the top of my head;
set the height property of the Button. I don't think people realize
that it's the actual containers that set the size of the controls. So
your Button has measured itself but, it needs to be sized on both
directions.
Layout does something like;
myButton.setActualSize(myButton.measuredWIdth, myButton.measuredHeight);

No, It did not rebuild the SWC, I commented out a trace() in the class file and the trace still traces in the other project(using the cached SWC from the Flex Library Project).

Re: [flexcoders] anyone knows how to work the trace window in beta3
Hi, 1) Are you using the debugger? 2) If you are tracing something like.. trace(myVar) Sometimes the myVar is null and will not show. So it is actully tracing but, there is nothing to trace. For situations like this, try; trace(myVar, myVar); then you will definatly know if the trace isn't working. But, the trace() function does work in debug mode.

Just a syntax change from B2 to B3. 'target' is still a valid
attribute, but it is used for something else.

[flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
To all: Got this email today, http://ajax.sys-con.com/ and it got me to thinking. I may get blasted for this, but here goes . . . just my .0199 cents. Let me first say I believe 100% that the Flex platform is a better mousetrap. I am currently developing applications with Flex. I prefer Flex. However, you can not open a software magazine, newsletter, journal, article, etc. that doesn't reference something about AJAX. It's everywhere. Adobe's Flex gets an honorable mention. I have been in the software business for over 27 years. I have seen many companies come and go that had a better mousetrap. I also realize that most end users do not care if a desktop app is developed with Visual C++ or Visual Basic. So why would they care what a RIA app is developed with. Probably not. In the end it is the application not the engine. There seems to be a parallel between PCs with Windows and Apple/Macs. Many believe that the Mac is better, but Apple/Mac has less the 5% of the market. Can Adobe accept 5% market share? You also can not under estimate the impact when Microsoft releases Atlas. And no Robert I don't want to hear about how you hate MS or the evil empire. Fact is, tens of thousands of developers will and I say will use their product. What this also does is make it more difficult for developers to convince management that the Flex product is better. Especially when all they hear is AJAX this and AJAX that. AJAX is getting all the hype. Right or wrong these are the facts. They have essentially taken over the RIA landscape and claimed it as their own. My point . . . . Adobe you need to step up to the plate. If you think you can wait, then by the time you start you will be too far behind. You will be left behind always playing catch-up. If you want to reach that 1 million developer goal, it needs to start now. To be better and say you are better is not enough. If the industry has already declared AJAX as the RIA industry leader then it becomes too late. >From a market perception, look how AJAX has evolved in the last year. Compare that to Adobe Flex. Adobe you are asking developers to make a commitment to you, well I think you need to increase your commitment to us. Now is the time to promote to the industry and the general public as a whole about the value of Flex. Again, just my opinion.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
Hi, my 0.02 cents. When you talk about Ajax verses Flex. I think of one thing, Object Oriented Programming. This debate, Ajax vs. Flex, wait one more year and see the code libraries that are abstract and reusable within 2 seconds of loading them on your computer. See, OOP lends itself well to the I think I can, I think I can, I think I can and then all the sudden your at rocket power. Take the Adobe flex2 framewrok and give it a trigger, I could out perform most that take Ajax and try to figure out the rats nest that comes with all the browsers, the half ass code libraries, etc. OOP is still new and well, if you know what it is and how powerful it can speed up an entire community of developers, Ajax is then going to have to play catch up. Flex2 isn't even public yet, so all this grandious, bs that the 'News' likes to fill your head with means nothing to a real Flex2 developer like myself. As far a Microsoft... who cares! They have been leading for years and will still lead as long as there bank accounts can still pay court battles. There is never just one leader in this world, common, do your homework.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
What this also does is make it more difficult for developers to convince management that the Flex product is better. Especially when all they hear is AJAX this and AJAX that. I recently got into a discussion on this, well it really wasn't a discussion. I was asked to giv e input on Flex to a internal architecture team. THey had written a quick doc about RIA and using it on our customer facing apps in the future. The doc had several incorrect stetements about Flex/Flash RIA. One was 'Flash player is full of security holes'. comparing Flex to AJAX I told them that currently no company really is behind AJAX in the sense of SLAs and such. they quickly retorted that IBM Websphere supports it. Seeing as these folks live in a 'White Paper' world, I didn't bother to continue the 'discussion'. Look around the websphere info, yeah sure you can use AJAX with websphere, but are tools and support and debugging and such built into the IDE yet? Does websphere have its own prototype.js that they support when things go wrong at 3 AM?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: F2b3: e4x XML object as Tree dataprovider, how to refresh tree display?
That is great. There are several places in the docs which should be updated then. I'll note them here, then put comments in the livedocs. In Using hierarchical data providers: While you can use an XML object directly as a dataProvider to a hierarchical data control, you should first convert it to a collection if the object changes dynamically. Doing so will ensure that the component represents the changes to the collection. In Creating a Tree control: As with all data provider controls, if the data provider contents can change as a result of actions outside the Tree, wrap the data source in a collection, such as an ArrayCollection or XMLListCollection object, and specify the collection in the Tree control's dataProvider property. And there is another place I can't find right now, that says something like: XML, by default will not cause a control to update Tracy -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Montagna Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 1:21 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: F2b3: e4x XML object as Tree dataprovider, how to refresh tree display?

RE: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
OK, heres 2 more cents. My employer has a staff of very good Java developers who have been building leading-edge Web apps for years. Why did they hire yours truly a humble Flash developer? Because they could not get the UI results they wanted with any other tool. Dont get me wrong they had built some very cool interfaces using Ajax and other tools. However, even these did not have all of the slick effects that they wanted, nor did they work as smoothly or reliably as could be desired. Moreover, the developers were sick of having to deal with differing browser implementations. They saw apps built by other shops that had the quality of UIs that they wanted and all of these apps had Flash front ends. And when a Java shop decides to go with Flash UIs, Flex is the obvious choice. As a final note, my employer builds applications for the worlds largest customer. And this customer already has a significant investment in other Adobe / Macromedia technologies, such as ColdFusion. So it seems to me that Flex is here to stay. IMHO, once the new 2.0 builder gets into production, there will be no holding it down. Lots of other developers will love it as much as we do, and it will take off. Having said all of that, of course, it wont hurt for Adobe to launch a major marketing and PR campaign.

If you don't think that hype can make or break a product, just look at how U.S. politics PR can "shape" a candidate. All I am saying, just because you have a better "mousetrap" doesn't mean that the industry will accept it at face value.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
As Michael points, AJAX is the client technology this year, wait until Flex 2 ships and people start knowing what they can do it. It will cost at least a a year or even a bit more that people could see that Flex is another world. But finaly, you as a developer, wants to do your job easily...and as you say your client should (most of the times) know if is Flex, VB or HTML...you want to be free as you do your work, isn't it? 2006/5/25, Michael Schmalle [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi, my 0.02 cents.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
My 2 cents as well.. We have been doing AJAX for 6 years -in the end we had pretty much what Flex 1.5 was -complete object-oriented environment withXHTML, custom tags, integrated webservices/java remoting, transparent dataservices, and do on We also had it up and running for 5 years at number of Fortune 1000 companies in the most demanding environments. Now we are switching to Flex.Two mainreasons : Browser and _javascript_ 1. Incompatibilities in the browsers and need to support multiple browsers quickly kills any advanced controls -effort is unbelievable and easily accounts of 90% of the development time. 2. Robustness and performance of _javascript_: It is too slow and there is no machanism in the browser to insure the competeness of _javascript_ downloads. As a result, even the slightest problems on the network level require huge efforts on the framework level. It is all curable on the system level. For demanding applications we had to develop following system components outside the browser (just to support AJAX and business needed functionality missing in the browser) 1. reliable pluggable protocol on the top of HTTP(s) to support guaranteed delivery/caching of data and code 2. cached factories for _javascript_ to allow faster instantiation of client-side _javascript_ 3. print tempates enabler to allow full control of the printing environment without browser limitations. The list goes on and on Bottom line, serious AJAX apps require Flash Player equivalent. You can try to build it in _javascript_, but it is unrealistic. We tried to get browser makers adopt the forementioned enhancements, but they are pusing alternatives to AJAX of their own, so Flash seems the only option with enough market penetration.

RE: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
Personally Im not expecting flex to overcome ajax in terms of market share for one simple reason. Ajax can accommodate a large proportion of developers needs. Thats not a bad thing, just a reality. Not everyone will need the kind of firepower that flex can deliver. I do believe though that well see solid penetration into the enterprise scene. We should also be aware of the impact of flash video. Its use is skyrocketing right now and anywhere you have the flash player for video you open a door to flex technologies. With this in mind Im thinking the second segment well see penetration is in public commerce sites. Look at Nike for example, heavy reliance on flash and now theyre moving into application development with the new deal with Apple and the ipod. Adoption here may take some time as flash player penetration is a factor. Apple may have 5% share but if you purchased stock a few years back youd be doing quite well today. Secondly theres plenty of room for them to grow one could argue thats a safer position then having to defend an already existing empire. Lastly, growth of Ajax will have a residual positive effect for flex technologies as it validates the idea that we need to make more experience-centric applications.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
I have done my homework. Figure of speech. :) Not aimed at you. All I am saying, just because you have a better mousetrap doesn't mean that the industry will accept it at face value. I agree but, none of the press release journalists are talking to me. I have some pretty hefty component sets comming out that include workspace xml save/load, automated desktop multi-application handling, cross application dnd and a score of components that make Ajax look like an infants toy rattle. Yes, I have an ego but, that is becasue I kow what I am developing for release in 3 months. The point is, this debate dosn't mean anything untill the 'industry' gets to see REAL non-green Flex2 applications being implemented and used. I said this once before, The proof is in the pudding. Wait a year, I am humble enough to admit when I am wrong also...

RE: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
I'm usually only a passive participant in this mailing list but I felt like replying to this. I as a developer am not free to choose a development platform in our company. I was actually hired because the company was searching for developers who knew stuff about Coldfusion (later moved to flex). When a company wants to do a project they usually study different roads depending on meeting their requirements, what it will cost, how long it will take. They don't go around the employment offices interviewing candidates and ask them what they would like to program in! (exagerating, I know) I am there to consult/propose possible strategies in the first stage. They usually pick the ones they are familiar with, they are most confident about. After this I can start implementing. With Flex1.5 there was the big cost tag on the whole infrastructure. Having to buy the server was already a big investment, spending months of development time to a rather new approach to RIA's was another horde that wasn't easy to take. Inhouse developers still need to convince the company why to go for specific new technology. The more it's know to them, the easier it can be to convince them of the benefits. I myself am confronted with the AJAX hype in and outside my office. If they want a fancy feature on a website of ours the first thing they come up with is 'can it be done in AJAX?' No one asks if it can be done with Flex, let alone they would ask for a Flex2 implementation. I agree with the first poster. It's time for Adobe to start promoting Flex so that people know that there is something else then AJAX for RIA implementations and with people I don't mean only developers. For me this was already a big problem with Flex1.5 (if it weren't for our personal contacts with the MM people at the time for Coldfusion, we would never have started with Flex projects) I don't think they can afford this again with Flex2...

RE: [flexcoders] F2B3 - Looking for Column Chart styles example similar to old Brocade sample app.
Hi Ben. When a set of column series is clustered, the chart (or columnSet) is setting the columnWidthRatio and offset properties to do it. So if you wanted to cluster differently, you could put the columnSeries inside a CartesianChart and set those properties yourself. To figure out how wide each column should be, you first need to decide how wide you want the total cluster to be, and how much each column should overlap. Then your formula would be: columnWidth = clusterWidth / (overlap + (series count)*(1-overlap)); the offset is the offset of the middle of the column from the middle of the category. given the clusterWidth and columnWidthRatio, the offset for each series is: seriesOffset(N)= -clusterWidth/2 + (1-overlap)*columnWidthRatio*(N) + columnWidthRatio/2; So if you have three series, and your total width is 75%, and the overlap should be 50%, then columnWdithRatio = .75 /(.5 + 3*(1-.5)) columnWdithRatio = .75 / 2; columnWdithRatio = .375 given that, seriesOffset(0) = -.75/2 + (.5)*.375*0 + .375/2; seriesOffset(0) = -.1875; seriesOffset(1) = -.75/2 + (.5)*.375*1 + .375/2; seriesOffset(1) = 0; seriesOffset(2) = -.75/2 + (.5)*.375*2 + .375/2; seriesOffset(2) = -.75/2 + .375 + .375/2;; seriesOffset(2) = .1875; Putting that into practice, the markup would be CartesianChart series ColumnSeries columnWidthRatio=".375" offset="-.1875" / ColumnSeries columnWidthRatio=".375" offset="0" / ColumnSeries columnWidthRatio=".375" offset=".1875" / /CartesianChart (You may need to reverse the order of those, I don't remember) Ely.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
Third, I don't remember where it comes from but anyway there's a stateful that gets me thinking in much deeper than all these A versus B flame wars: I want to say one thing and I am out. I feel compelled to reply to threads like this becasue of some reasons; 1) Defending your home is a natural human tendency 2) There will always be wars against side A and side B(look to history to back me up on this) 3) When you are put in a position to 'defend' something, you either defend it or go to side B 4) When some thought implies 'takeover' 5) When side B misrepresents side A 6) When side A pays the bills The irony of idealism is it's ideal and will never fit into the Earth zone. Inventors always like to take it on the head, they always have their noses where they shouldn't be and always are alone while leading there idealism. So, on this list you will find a lot of humans that want to defend what they think can make a differnece in the future. Ajax is just another side in life and when people(say from the AJAX camp) start to call Flex2 dead before the baby is born, we better hope there are people with silver tounges around to stand up and advocate Flex on all levels of human interaction.

Re: [flexcoders] AJAX versus Flex
Imagine a world where desktop applications and Web applications look and feel the same AND work together seamlessly, then you are on a path that might lead to success. Microsoft is working on doing exactly this - it is just taking them years to deliver on it. AJAX is a place holder because people are bored with the Web the way it currently works. In the delay is Adobe's opportunity and in the boredom is Adobe's challenge. Flex will not be differentiated in the marketplace by building exclusively Web applications that are not much better/different than what you can easily do with Java - especially in light of Google's most recent announcement (http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/). The "killer apps" for Flex will be the ones that don't look and feel any different than people are used to - but do mix graphics, multimedia, drag-and-drop, etc. with all the traditional UI components in ways that are nearly impossible for AJAX to do without lots of customization. As strange as it may sound, one technique would be to use a fixed set of style guidelines - say ones that replicate the Windows look and feel - so that people would be drawn to the interface they know, know how to use, and prefer (vs. HTML) - even while giving the developers behind the scenes a much richer set of tools for implementation. Right now, people see the AJAX-enabled Web application that they recognize as HTML - and then they see a Flex application that looks a little unfamiliar. Let's make it real simple. The AJAX bridge is half of that equation - now give us the set of style settings that are indistinguishable from the Windows equivalent. If people have to choose between a Windows-equivalent application and an HTML one, the choice will be simple. The technology, to the user, is irrelevant. Next, give us applications that work seamlessly between the desktop and the Web. I want interoperability (drag-and-drop and who knows what else) between my Flex-based Web application and my Flex-based desktop applications. I know, SECURITY. Get over it. It's going to happen, IT IS JUST A MATTER OF WHO GETS THERE FIRST. Adobe has all the tools to make this work and really only lacks a loud and cohesive strategy to make it happen. Given that the competition is Microsoft and Google, Adobe really needs a running head start if they want to win.

[flexcoders] Resizing (height and width not Bindable)
Hi,This is an is there a better way question.I have an mxml component based on TitleWindow. I create it with CreatePopUp. I want it to take the entire area of its parent, so, I define its height={
parent.height} and similarly for the width. This is fine, however height does not seem to be Bindable (perhaps none of these properties are?) So as I want this component to respond by resizing when its parent resizes, I have it listen for the resize event of its parent and change the size in the handler.
This works just fine, but as I said, is there a better way? Seems to me that if the height and width were Bindable then the resize would happen automatically whenever the values change.Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] maps for flex
Hi Nitin, I'm not sure why your map gets distorted. But my initial reaction is to think that the container you have for the map is resized by scale, not by size, which then distorts the content as well. Perhaps we can understand it better if you give us more detail to what you have done.Yahoo! Maps Beta uses Navteq, TeleAtlas. As for the API, you can grab it from:http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/flash/flexGettingStarted.html To see samples of such implementations:http://developer.yahoo.com/maps/applications.htmlI've used the API and being a novice I find it really easy to implement, thanks to the thorough documentation.

Re: [flexcoders] Resizing (height and width not Bindable)
I am no expert but,
I would say looking at the source, if width and height WERE bindable there would be issues with measurments and such(timming).
Using the resize event is perfect in an event based system. Stick with it. ;-)

RE: [flexcoders] How to populate an attribute value in DataGrid control?
First, the @ in fornt of all the xml attributes might cause a problem.
Second, The name/value pair structure of your xml is going to be
difficult to work with. Are you stuck with that structure?
If so you will need to use a labelFunction(). In that you will do
something like:
var sFirstName:String = xmlRecord.data[0].(@@name ==
lastname).@@value; //that is where those @ signe might cause a
problem.
If you can change the xml format this can be much easier.
Below is a sample app that uses labelFunction on fairly complex xml.

[flexcoders] Question on CF components created by the Flex Wizard
I am having a little trouble following the flow of the CF components created by the wizard in Flex. I am using the save function of the gateway component and writing to the database successfully. When I create a new record I am wondering if the ID (or key - mine is ID) should be returned. I see in the component that is searches for the ID after I add it but when I debug my Flex app in the result event handler I am not finding that data. Am I making an assumption here?

[flexcoders] Re: XMLListCollection search [f2b3]
Tracy,
Yesterday, I took the code from your tree control sample and started creating an example for CFlex. Are you doing something similar? The sample that I'm working on contains code and tips from you, Graham Weldon, Tim (sufibaba - don't know last name) and Paul Williams. I'm doing this mostly to learn the ins and outs of using an XML based tree control and tocreate somewhatof a template. Since most of your recent posts have been tree related, I thought that I would ask your help with two things. If you already have code that does the following functions, I would appreciate your help.
1. Remove Selected Element and/or Node2. Add New Element - I have code that does this, but I can't figure-out how to insert dynamic Inner XML (label based on the text in a textInput).
If you get a chance to look at this, it would definitly save me some time. The sample is here:

When a set of column series is clustered, the chart (or columnSet) is setting the columnWidthRatio and offset properties to do it. So if you wanted to cluster differently, you could put the columnSeries inside a CartesianChart and set those properties yourself. To figure out how wide each column should be, you first need to decide how wide you want the total cluster to be, and how much each column should overlap. Then your formula would be: columnWidth = clusterWidth / (overlap + (series count)*(1-overlap)); the offset is the offset of the middle of the column from the middle of the category. given the clusterWidth and columnWidthRatio, the offset for each series is: seriesOffset(N)= -clusterWidth/2 + (1-overlap)*columnWidthRatio*(N) + columnWidthRatio/2; So if you have three series, and your total width is 75%, and the overlap should be 50%, then columnWdithRatio = .75 /(.5 + 3*(1-.5)) columnWdithRatio = .75 / 2; columnWdithRatio = .375 given that, seriesOffset(0) = -.75/2 + (.5)*.375*0 + .375/2; seriesOffset(0) = -.1875; seriesOffset(1) = -.75/2 + (.5)*.375*1 + .375/2; seriesOffset(1) = 0; seriesOffset(2) = -.75/2 + (.5)*.375*2 + .375/2; seriesOffset(2) = -.75/2 + .375 + .375/2;; seriesOffset(2) = .1875; Putting that into practice, the markup would be CartesianChart series ColumnSeries columnWidthRatio=.375 offset=-.1875 / ColumnSeries columnWidthRatio=.375 offset=0 / ColumnSeries columnWidthRatio=.375 offset=.1875 / /CartesianChart (You may need to reverse the order of those, I don't remember) Ely.

[flexcoders] Re: How to populate an attribute value in DataGrid control?
Tracy,
Thanks for the feedback.
Unfortunately I cannot change the XML, the data is from third party
provider. I tried it with labelFunction and @@, it does not work :-(
var sFirstName:String = xmlRecord.data[0].(@@name ==
lastname).@@value;
--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tracy Spratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
First, the @ in fornt of all the xml attributes might cause a
problem.
Second, The name/value pair structure of your xml is going to be
difficult to work with. Are you stuck with that structure?
If so you will need to use a labelFunction(). In that you will do
something like:
var sFirstName:String = xmlRecord.data[0].(@@name ==
lastname).@@value; //that is where those @ signe might cause a
problem.
If you can change the xml format this can be much easier.
Below is a sample app that uses labelFunction on fairly complex xml.

Re: [flexcoders] Image scale 9 having fun
Stacey,
Honestly I havn't tried this but, looking at the source of Image awhile
ago, I would say it is not possible with that class. The Image wants to
scale not call setActualSize().
Why don't you try loading as 'backgroundImage' of a VBox or HBox. I am not to sure but, something tells me that this would work.

Re: [flexcoders] Image scale 9 having fun
You know, we are talking about a png, scratch the setActualSize() thing.
Scratch what I said, my advice just try it in something that is a skin, not the Image.

If the @ really prevent your from using the xpath-like expressions, you can always drop back to looping over the XMLList's elements.
If I get a few minutes, I'll see what I can do with your xml.

[flexcoders] Embedding Swf files Help sample broken. Need to refer to symbols at runtime.
I need to load swf's that include many symbols which I need to
reference dynamically at runtime.
I am able to embed and link to symbols whose name I know at compile
time using:
[Embed(source='shapes.swf', symbol='greenSquare')]
[Bindable]
public var imgCls:Class;
I won't know some of my symbol names until runtime.
In the Help page Embedding SWF files there is an example of
referencing a symbol by using a string parameter:
The heart of it is:
public var loadedSM:SystemManager;
[Bindable]
public var loadedLabel:Label;
// Initialize variables with information from
// the loaded application.
private function initNestedAppProps():void {
loadedSM = SystemManager(myLoader.content);
loadedLabel = loadedSM.application[lblOne];
}
---
When I run the example I get a type conversion error at this line:
loadedSM = SystemManager(myLoader.content);
(Droog3 is the project name.)
---
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to
mx.managers.SystemManager.
at Droog3/::initNestedAppProps()
at Droog3/__myLoader_creationComplete()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at mx.core::UIComponent/set initialized()
at mx.managers::LayoutManager/::doPhasedInstantiation()
at mx.core::UIComponent/::callLaterDispatcher2()
at mx.core::UIComponent/::callLaterDispatcher()
---
Did the example get broken by the move to beta 3? Did type
conversion rules for the SystemManager get more strict?
I'd love any help with this. Again, I need to get at a symbol using
a string parameter, as in the example:
loadedSM.application[lblOne];
Thanks.

DateChooser{

roll-over-color:#ff0099;
selection-color: #00;
today-color: #ff0099;
border-color: #00;

theme-color:#ff0099;

RE: [flexcoders] Re: How to populate an attribute value in DataGrid control?
First, the sample xml in your post is not valid: the data nodes have no closing taqs (or /). If we fix that then the example below works for your xml.
The key is to use the attribute method instead of the @ symbol to reference the attributes.

Tracy,
Thanks for the feedback.
Unfortunately I cannot change the XML, the data is from third party
provider. I tried it with labelFunction and @@, it does not work :-(
var sFirstName:String = xmlRecord.data[0].(@@name ==
lastname).@@value;

First, the @ in fornt of all the xml attributes might cause a
problem.
Second, The name/value pair structure of your xml is going to be
difficult to work with. Are you stuck with that structure?
If so you will need to use a labelFunction(). In that you will do
something like:
var sFirstName:String = xmlRecord.data[0].(@@name ==
lastname).@@value; //that is where those @ signe might cause a
problem.
If you can change the xml format this can be much easier.
Below is a sample app that uses labelFunction on fairly complex xml.
