 lets just say you have an xml tag

 an thats been assigned to a variable 'xml_tag'. when you come to output 
 the contents of that variable... it will show tag text not v1 or 
 v2 ( which are attributes ). To output the contents of those 
 attributes ... you do [EMAIL PROTECTED] and that will output v1
 
 the problem your having is there is nothing in between the tags so it's 
 blank... infact... you closed the XML tag tag/... thats how xml is 
 :p. I'm still learning XML

I don't think that's true.

If I drag two items into the list, I get this:

node label=All School/Class/Major/Degree/
node label=Secondary Record Types/

So if I drag only one item into the tree, I'd expect this:

node label=All School/Class/Major/Degree/

But I don't get that, I get nothing.

And all I'm doing is outputting the dataProvider.toString() = the tree 
has a data provider - it's got one item in it, so it SHOULD output 
something!

[flexcoders] FLEX2/Flash devs Need More Clarity from Adobe on New Flash Player Install Methods : i.e. New Shake-Up in FLASH Install Options (Foxfire JS disabled by default, and IE embed activation)

2006-08-05 Thread Robert Thompson



There are 2 recent events that have complicated Flash Installs that even SWFObject (formerly FlashObject) cannot handle.#1. Foxfire Now Comes Installed Default with Script Blocking. So, the very thing that made Flash successful (almost instantaneous installation even over 56k modem) is now moot. We have to instruct the user to specifically allow _javascript_.#2. Microsoft's loss of the ELOAS lawsuit and the Court Order for them to remove Emebedded Object Activation (requiring users who need to interact with a menu based or otherwise click-based flash movie to first click it once to activate it and then click it again to interact with it). SWFObject solves this particular problem.It seems to me, from looking at Adobe.com and their implementation of Flash Installs, that they themselves handle Interenet Explorer by now just displaying a GIF or JPEG graphic and No Flash Movies that require interaction, and they use DHTML menus.For
 Firefox _javascript_ turned-off, Adobe does the same thing and displays a graphic, but also displays the message,You may not have everything you need to view certain sections of Adobe.com. Please see our site requirements.Which it does not seem to do for Internet Explorer (i.e. it just defaults to graphic mode).Things seem to be getting more complicated for Flash Installs, and with the challenge of Vista's Sparkle, it seeems important, now more than ever, for Adobe/Macromedia to provide the Best All Around Solution/Example for Flash Player install support.-r

Re: [flexcoders] Re: DataGrid ItemRenderer

2006-08-05 Thread Clarke Bishop



In case it helps anyone else, I've got this bullet thing working now. Three things were needed:
- Setting the horizontal and vertical scroll policy as sinatosk suggested- Specifying the width, but not the height or the Text component. When you do this the text box will automatically adjust its height to show all the content
- VariableRowHeight = true in the data grid component properties.mx:VBox verticalScrollPolicy=off horizontalScrollPolicy=off height=100% width=100%
 mx:Text text={data.description} fontWeight=bold width=380selectable=false/ mx:Text htmlText={data.detail} width=380selectable=false/  
/mx:VBoxOn 8/1/06, ben.clinkinbeard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:













  



From what I was told in a previous thread, non-visible rows are not
rendered. Basically, it renders however many rows are visible, and
then when you scroll down for instance, it moves them all up one and
moves the top row to the bottom and rerenders its content.

[flexcoders] Re: Help with SharedObject please!

2006-08-05 Thread Jason
Sephiroth, the author of the awsome AS2 editor SE|PY, wrote a free
SharedObject viewer that I think will help out with your debugging.

http://www.sephiroth.it/python/solreader.php

SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from local HD:
C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash
Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\localhost

SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from a Web
server with a domain:
C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash
Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\www.yourWebSite.com

Also, be aware that unless you secify a domain location for the
creation of the shared object then it will use the default namespace
of the domain the SWF is on.  There may be some new sandbox
restrictions in Flex 2 that I do not know about that may be the cause
of your problem.

You can specify the location of where the SharedObject is created with
the extra parameter:
var mySO:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(soName, /);

Also, you might want to check out this link:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Partsfile=2665.html

good luck

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 DS shared Managed Objects question

2006-08-05 Thread Jeff Vroom












Answers inline:











From:

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 2 DS
shared Managed Objects question











I'm using Data Services with Managed Objects and the
Hibernate Assembler.

I have a question regarding updating a shared managed object through
one managed object, and having that update be reflected in another
managed object. Should this work?

I the most simple case, lets say I have a managed object A, that when
fetched has a collection of other managed objects B. If I add a new
managed object B, and save it directly through it's DataService,
shouldn't A refresh its collection of B objects? 

When you are using an association
property, you need to explicitly modify that property for it to change. The
auto refresh behavior of collections only works for collections which
you populate using the DataService.fill method. So in this case, you would
have to both create a new B and add it to As collection of Bs for
the A.Bcollection property to update. This could be done on the client, or
you could do it in on the server using the DataServiceTransaction api. It
might look at the newly created B and issue updateItem calls for the A destination
updating the collection property to include the new B. Assuming autoSyncEnabled
was true for the fill/getItem that created A, this would then push out the changes
to As collection of Bs so it shows up.

I suppose that if adding B
has a side effect of updating the state of a property of A because of a
relationship in the database, simply refreshing A would also get the new version
of the data (i.e. call fill or getItem again)

In a more complex sense, I have managed objects that are shared
components of several other managed objects. (A's contain a collection
of B's)... when I update a B, do I need to keep track of every A that
has that particular B?

Yes, if you are using
association properties this is by manually updating association properties. Another
approach is to use fills instead of associations. In this case, you can
pass in the id of item A as a fill parameter to retrieve a list
of Bs instead of storing the collection of Bs as a property of A. In
this case, after each change to a B, we will go through all fills which have
auto-refresh enabled and re-execute them to see if their contents have changed.
If so, we push out the changes to the clients that have those fills. This
can be slow as the number of fills changes so there are ways to optimize that
process.

I hope this helps. Does
this work for you if you are using hibernate without FDMS? I guess
it might if you are not caching instances and refetch them from the database
each time you create a new B I think that usually you implement
this type of thing with a bi-directional relationship where B also has a
reference to one or more As. In this case, the hibernate docs recommend
that you update both sides of the relationship though only one of the
properties needs to be changed to persist the state in the database.

[flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm: Managing Application State

2006-08-05 Thread Jason
I am facing the same question.  What is the best way to manage
application view states with Cairngorm2?

The pattern where you use

  Model:
  public static var workflowState:Number = 0;
  public static var VIEWING_SOMETHING:Number = 0;
  public static var VIEWING_SOMETHING_ELSE:Number = 1;
  public static var VIEWING_ANOTHER_THING:Number = 2;

Seem ok for a small application, but would become a pain if you have
dozens of Views.

Binding the selectedIndex of the ViewStack is also anouther way I have
tried to manage view states, but there are draw backs there as well.

Setting the currentState directly from the componets in the view is also
problematic.

Anyone have a good way to handle this?

 looking for some input as to why you would do it one way or another.

  The main thing here is if you use Views with ViewHelpers you should
  have those as separate views and not use mx:States.  States in my
  preception are more for UI changes within a view then what the
  switching containers or larger sets of UI.
 
  Now this is not to say you can use the States for changing
containers
  like that of the ViewStack, it just seems its not the purpose of it.
 
  From the livedocs:
 
  The State class defines a view state, a particular view of a
  component. For example, a product thumbnail could have two view
  states; a base view state with minimal information, and a rich view
  state with additional information.

   them from the beginning. ( very possible )
  
   Let me give a better example, to make sure i'm not way out in left
  field.
  
   This is a typical way I manage the state.
  
   viewstack selectedIndex={ModelLocator.workflowState}
 view:Something
 view:SomethingElse
 view:AnotherThing
   /viewstack
  
   Model:
public static var workflowState:Number = 0;
public static var VIEWING_SOMETHING:Number = 0;
public static var VIEWING_SOMETHING_ELSE:Number = 1;
public static var VIEWING_ANOTHER_THING:Number = 2;
  
   Inside of a view:
mx:Button click=ModelLocator.workflowState =
   ModelLocator.VIEWING_SOMETHING /
  
   it seems like this should accomplish the same thing:
   mx:States
 mx:State name=Something
   mx:AddChild position=lastChild
view:Something id=somethingView /
   /mx:AddChild
 /mx:State
 mx:State name=SomethingElse
   mx:AddChild position=lastChild
view:SomethingElse id=somethingElseView /
   /mx:AddChild
 /mx:State
 mx:State name=AnotherThing
   mx:AddChild position=lastChild
view:AnotherThing id=anotherThingView /
   /mx:AddChild
 /mx:State
   /mx:States
  
   Inside of a view:
   mx:Button click=this.setCurrentState('SomethingElse')/
  
   I have noticed in messing around with it, that maybe you could
bind
   the current state to the model and change from a number to a
string.
  
   sorry for the long post, just trying to learn something :)

2006-08-05 Thread sinatosk



ok I can't explain it exactly... but bottom line is... when you drag the one item in... for exampletag att1=v1 att2=v2/and the output will be blank... but if you dotag att1=v1 att2=v2/
tag att1=v3 att2=v4/the output is going to be
tag att1=v1 att2=v2/
tag att1=v3 att2=v4/simply because it's not a root node because there are 2 of them... just put the 1 tag in and it will make that the root node inside the variable.Read the documentation about XML
if you do thisvar my_xml:XML = tag att1=v1 att2=v2/tag att1=v3 att2=v4/;you can access those tags by simply doing my_xml.tag and to access the attributes you do [EMAIL PROTECTED]... however if you do
var my_xml:XML = tag att1=v1 att2=v2/;it will make that the root node and [EMAIL PROTECTED] will not work instead you do [EMAIL PROTECTED]again like I said :p  Read the documentation about XML

[flexcoders] Re: Unable to detect change in text selection in textArea...

2006-08-05 Thread Jeff
So, no one else has figured this one out yet either? :( If you have 
and ideas to pursue, please share! I'm stuck.

Cheers,
Jeff

 Seems like there should simply be an event on a textArea 
 called selectionChanged... alas there is not.
 
 So here is what I've tried:
 
 mouseUp handler - Works great if user clicks in a textArea and 
drags 
 out a selection and lets up on the mouse inside the bounds of the 
 text area. BUT, if they let up outside, mouseUp doesn't fire... 
even 
 though the user continues to adjust the selection while the mouse 
is 
 outside the textArea! (it gives you that nice line at time style 
 of text selection)
 
 mouseOut handler -  Sure, it helps when it fires as soon as the 
 mouse moves outside the textArea during the process of adjusting 
the 
 selection, but then it's just frozen there while the user 
continues 
 to move the mouse up and down and effect the like at a time 
style 
 of text selection mentioned above.
 
 mouseMove handler - Only works while over the textArea...
 
 keyUp handler - YAY, seems to be pretty foolproof for catching 
text 
 selection via the SHFT-Left Arrow and SHFT-Right Arrow.
 
 Isn't there an easy way to constantly listen to an objects 
 property... like selectionEndIndex or selectionBeginIndex??? I 
 assume it's getting updated while I adjust the text selection by 
 moving the mouse outside the textArea.
 
 Cheers,
 Jeff

RE: [flexcoders] Create variables dynamic in Flex 2

Bracket notation works on both sides of an

this[myVar_+i].someProperty =

someVar = this[myVar_+i].someProperty;

What
about the opposite?

I want to find a property value of a dynamically named var. I.e. what if
later in the code, i once again looped but instead of:
var myVar_i:String = new String();



o[myVar_ + i] = new String();

I wanted to do:
myVar_+i.someProperty = someValue;
or
someVar = myVar_+i.someProperty

Thanks,

[flexcoders] Timer to run function every 30 min

2006-08-05 Thread David Brown





Hello all,

I could use some help. I have been 
livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2docs looking for a way to create a timer function 
that would execute a function every 30 min. I found an example of mytimer 
and looked at a example for simple analog clock. But I am having a hard 
time understanding how it relates to my code. Below is a code 
snipet.

I would like to run the InitApp() function every 30 
min. That should refresh my two datagrids that inturn will update my 
screen.

Any help would be great.

Thank 
David

[flexcoders] [Flex Builder 2] Adding Project References doesn't affect classpath?

2006-08-05 Thread astgtciv
Hi, I am trying to refer to an interface InterfaceA defined in Project A 
from a ClassB in Project B. I checked off Project A in the Project 
References tab of Project B. However, the interface is still not seen by 
the compiler. When I add Project A's source directory as an extra source dir 
to Project B, of course everything works. Have I misunderstood the purpose 
of the Project References option in Flex Builder 2?

Thank you!

[flexcoders] extending array functions....or how do I remove duplicates in an array?

2006-08-05 Thread Impudent1
I was beating on this combobox/datagrid thingy and was able to have a 
measure of success by using the same arraycollection ..

BUT, this will populate the dropdown with duplicate entries. I was 
trying to figure a way around this with flex array manipulation but I 
just couldnt get it.

Searching around I found this little gem, but I admit extending the 
array with a prototype function in flex is a bit over my melon at the mo..

Array.prototype.removeDuplicates = function(fn,matchFN) { // removes 
duplicate items from an array and returns a new array
   var a = ([]).concat(this);
   (fn==null) ? a.sort() : a.sort(fn);
   if (matchFN!=null) {
 for (i in a) if (matchFN(a[i],a[i-1])) a.splice(i,1);
   } else {
 for (i in a) if (a[i]==a[i-1]) a.splice(i,1);
   }
   return a;
}


Now is this really something I need to deal with, or shouldnt flex be 
all snazzy with some neat array manipulation that I just dont seem to see?

If it is something I need to add, is there any advice about extending 
existing flex functions.

[flexcoders] Dumping the State of a Flex 2 Application

2006-08-05 Thread Clarke Bishop



Is there an easy way to dump the state of a Flex 2 application? When there's an error or a user hits the Help button, I want to know where they are in the app. I have various view stacks containing tab navigators, etc. I'd like to know which view stack, tab navigator, etc. the user was on when they encountered the error or clicked the button.
Thanks for any ideas. Clarke

Re: [flexcoders] Timer to run function every 30 min

side note:

if you were to use 60 * 30 * 1000, 
try to write it like this:

var interval:Number = 60 * 30 * 1000;

then use the variable interval in the timer, so the value won't be calculated everytime needed.

Re: [flexcoders] Dumping the State of a Flex 2 Application

2006-08-05 Thread Nick Collins



why not add a getter setter for a currentLocation variable and each time they go to a section or page of your app, set the variable with some sort of code that you can use, whether descriptive (homePage) or a number code (page0001) or whatever, then tie that code in via your database or an XML file to the help content.

Is there an easy way to dump the state of a Flex 2 application? When there's an error or a user hits the Help button, I want to know where they are in the app. I have various view stacks containing tab navigators, etc. I'd like to know which view stack, tab navigator, etc. the user was on when they encountered the error or clicked the button.
Thanks for any ideas. Clarke

Re: [flexcoders] Is this a bug, or is it just me?

2006-08-05 Thread Rick Root
I still don't understand the following.

When you drag one item over, it appears in the tree.

The tree has a dataProvider.  It contains that one item.

dest.dataProvider.toString() absolutely should show something.

I understand the whole root node thing, it still doesn't explain why I 
can't dump the dataProvider using the object's toString() method, 
because it STILL HAS DATA.

Re: [flexcoders] will Flash (stand-alone) Remoting be upgraded for Flex 2.0? (ie not FDS)

2006-08-05 Thread Nick Collins



Nope, FDS is Java only, to the best of my knowledge. for .Net support the only current option is WebORB.On 8/3/06, Barry Beattie

 If you dont mind spending $20,000 for flex in order to do something that used to cost 1k.

which is kinda my point (well, related to).

it's not a big server setup we have here but it's enough to push us
into the enterprise level (or so it seems). it's not for one specific
app but a bunch of piddley little stand-alone ones with NOT a high
traffic count.

it'd be good to get some official word (or at least a bunch of ppl who
are good at guessing wat Adobe would do) saying the stand-alone
product was at the end of it's line. It'll make my case of keeping CF
and upgrading to 7.02 even  stronger (if it gets considered, that is).

hang on, (I don't really care but) does this mean the .NET version
is gone too? if you're running .NET you have to go thru FDS as well?

[flexcoders] Re: Help with SharedObject please!

2006-08-05 Thread wayneposner
I tried downloading the app. It seems to work fine on any shared 
object created with earlier versions of Flash, but I was unable to 
get it to read any of my Shared Objectes created with Flex 2/Flash 
9.  I know some of my SO's have data in them because I have the data 
it's retrieving being traced to my console.  But like I said before, 
it only gets data when executing locally, not via a URL.  

Any other ideas??

Thanks!
Wayne

 SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from local

 C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application 
Data\Macromedia\Flash
 Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\localhost
 
 SharedObjects are stored in this location when running from a Web
 server with a domain:
 C:\Documents and Settings\{USERNAME}\Application 
Data\Macromedia\Flash
 Player\#SharedObjects\N42WKXA7\www.yourWebSite.com
 
 Also, be aware that unless you secify a domain location for the
 creation of the shared object then it will use the default 
namespace
 of the domain the SWF is on.  There may be some new sandbox
 restrictions in Flex 2 that I do not know about that may be the 
cause
 of your problem.
 
 You can specify the location of where the SharedObject is created 
with
 the extra parameter:
 var mySO:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(soName, /);
 
 Also, you might want to check out this link:
