Re: [flexcoders] Need primer on Events, from the List Gurus -
Hi Mike,
one point of MVC is, that the model is not aware of any views.
If you want to trigger some view function from the Model, you have to set
some property of the model and bind the view to it.
One nice way to do this, is AC's Observe tag. See
http://weblogs.macromedia.com/auhlmann/archives/2006/09/using_binding_s.cfm#more
for the details.
Cheers,
Ralf.

With what you said, it pretty much backs up what I already knew to be
true.
When it comes to the basics, I am pretty well-versed with Data Binding -
and of course, writing some pretty extensive Cairngorm-based RIA, I have
a pretty good handle on the flow of things.
I guess what is making me second guess what I know about Events, is the
fact that I can't get this damn thing to work. I am scratching my head
on this, and can't figure out what I am missing.
Take this simple example:
Main Application
View1
View2
In View1, I have a basic Panel with a DataGrid. I have a Bindable
public var (myArrayCollection), and assigned it as the dataSource for my
Grid. In my AS Code, I created a var referencing my ModelLocater. Then
I set local myArrayCollection var equal to model.myArrayCollection.
This takes care of all the var declarations, as well as properly
dataBinding it to the Model.
Everything is great - data updates perfect, yada yada yada...
Now I want to add 1 more piece of functionality - broadcast an event, to
make my Grid scroll to the top, after a new record is added. Sounds
easy enough...
Here is what I added to make this happen:
1) Added an eventListener to View1, that listens for scrollGrid -
which gets attached to the appropriate function (scrolling the Grid to
the very top).
2) Added extra logic to my Cairngorm getDataCommand Command - which I
put in the onResult Event Function. The code to call the function
(because the function resides in my ModelLocater) is
model.fireOffScrollEvent. The function simply dispatches a generic
Event (with the Event String being scrollGrid).
Now here is where I get confused:
Other than the simple variable reference in View1 to ModelLocater, there
is nothing else tying these 2 Classes together. I say Classes, because
Controls in essence are simply Classes, in addition to the fact that
ModelLocater really doesn't extend anything.
So now, when I dispatch the scrollGrid Event from inside of
ModelLocater, nothing happens on View1. See, this is where my
understanding of Events, falls terribly short.
See, in the times like this, I am not sure how the Application
propagates these Events. When an Event gets dispatched, does Flex
systematically broadcast it to each and every component??
What confuses me too, is all the scoping stuff - which was a really big
deal in Flash. In Flex, you don't use any dot-notation to specify
where the Event should go (like
Application.application.View1.myDataGrid) - it just goes somewhere out
there - like a black hole some place. When they mention bubbling, I
thought this meant just that -
Since this isn't working for me, I am obviously doing something wrong.
So the question is, what extra code must I add, to make the ModelLocater
aware of View1 and vice versa?
Thanks in advance for your time on this -
Mike

Maybe the following will help.
Data Binding is really just a short hand version of an event broadcast,
and listener and function to be executed.
Take the example:
[Bindable]
private var lastname:String;
mx:Text text={lastname}/
mx:Button click=lastname='My last Name'/
--
When the button is click the variable lastname value is updated to 'my
last name'.
Since lastname is Bindable, it dispatches an event (broadcaster) that
the value has changed. Any control listening to the change event,
receives the event and runs a function to updates the property text to
the new value. This of course, invalidates the display which then the
display gets updated.
The Bindable metatag creates a dispatch change event (Broadcaster)
The {lastname} creates a listener for the text control to listen to the
lastname change event
A function is created that updates the property, text in this case, to
the new value of last name.
I am sure it is more complicated than this (A function can also be
Bindable, how does the function know when it changes value?).
You can implement data binding using the event model. It might be a
good exercise, but you would not want to do it this way in an
application.
I know the above helped me greatly in understanding the events model. I
hope it helps.

[flexcoders] More classes mean bigger SWF file ?
Hi All, I am learning flex and was trying the RemoteObject to interact with backend Java layer. I am creating ActionScript counterparts for all my (DAO)Java Beans and letting the flex do the serialization/deserialization. The objects being returned are all typed. Now as I understand, if I don't have typed return types from my methods in the backend java layer and I get Object as Associate Arrays in the client (flex) side. Since I can access the fields of this object using the associative array syntax object.fieldname which is the same if I have had an actually Typed object. WHat is the advantage does returning typed objects give ? One I can think of is knowing any invalid field access at compile time. Is there any other advantage? Isn't adding many DAOs in flex side would mean increase in SWF file size ? Thanks
Re: [flexcoders] Webservices request serialization issues.
What java webservice technology are you using?

Grant - Original Message - From: Dima Gutzeit [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: 1/12/07 10:01 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Webservices request serialization issues. Hi, I am using Flex 2.0.1 based application to communicate with web services written in Java (JAXWS). System should send requests using complex objects with nested structure and it does it ok. The problem appears when I have inheritance in the object graph. I have base class X , two derived classes, Y and Z, and two more YA and ZA. x - y - ya x - z - za X contains common fields such as ID and NAME. Object that I send contains reference to the base class X, but the instance of the objects is YA or ZA. When the request is being sent, I can see only the common properties taken from X, and none of the impl specific fields, although wsdl/schema defines those. When I change the reference type to Y or Z I get the same behavior, so the only way is to define reference to YA and ZA directly, which is not a nice way to go. Now the funny part that the situation is being solved if I move the common fields from x to y and z (duplicate the fields), and leave the X class empty !!! But this approach stops working if I use array of objects, and not only one. Can anyone shed some light of the serialization logic in case of inheritance? One more thing, what is the way Flex deals with inheritance when reference is not the final impl, but to the base class ??? Other WS entities would use techniques such as xsi:type definitions in the dispatched XML ... For now I am solving it by adding field to each derived class, with the actual class name, catch it on the server side, and add xsi:type manually, but this way is not the one I would like to stick with Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't be too hard to replicate the interface in Flex, and then port the AS2 to AS3, but I haven't seen the code so I don't know for certain the level of difficulty. Unfortunately, I haven't heard from greg either. If FlexPaper could output to PDF that could be a great solutions as well. I know you can go PDF to SWF, but it seems most products don't convert the other way. Ultimately (if anyone at Adobe is listening) my wish list is the following: 1. Create a similar blaze PDF or FlashPaper like component for printing print preview (which can output contents to a printer as well as PDF). AND 2. Create a better print class which can control the user's print window more than is possible now. Flex is great, FlashPaper is great, and PDF's are needed (and the standard in my business) .

Yup, you are correct. I just talked to Roger about this.
What is happening is that MenuBar checks to see if an iconField is set.
In your case it is, and the MenuBar looks to see if a Class, exitOn,
exists with that name in the application or a property on the document
with that same name exists. It does, however you cannot access a static
var off an instance, only off the class. So, the lookup in the MenuBar

Re: [flexcoders] MDI, Cairngorm TitleWindow
I think that singleton models won't work for some forms that user can load n times... I'm not sure that in that instance you need a Singleton, if you want each form to have it's own instance of that object? On 12/01/07, Juan Carlos M.

[flexcoders] Custom Control advice
Hi, I want to write a custom control but Im not that familiar with Flex. What I need is a chat area, where I can paint my text, smileys etc. Im a bit confused by Flex's design, and so dont know what controls to inherit from. Im thinking I should derive from UIComponent. But then how to I control the painting of it? It seems to have no event which gets called when Flash wants to repaint the control. I cant simply paint it once and leave it at that, because it will get obscured sometimes, and wont repaint unless I tell it to. Any advice please? Maybe I should be deriving from a different class which exposes a paint event similar to Win32 programming. Thanks
[flexcoders] dragging a repeater item
Dear friends,
i am new to Flex, and here is a problem i am struggling with:
mx:Canvas id=map_target dragEnter=doDragEnter(event, 'destinations')
mx:Repeater dataProvider={destination_coll}
id=map_locations
mx:Image x={map_locations.currentItem.x_coord}
y={map_locations.currentItem.y_coord} width=100 height=100
toolTip={map_locations.currentItem.destination_name}
source={map_locations.currentItem.thumbnail}
mouseDown=dragIt(currentImageSource,'my data here', event,
'myFormat') /
/mx:Repeater
/mx:Canvas
Only thing i want is to drag an image made by repeater with
coordinates driven from service and drop it to some other location on
the same canvas.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Mickael
Re: [flexcoders] Webservices request serialization issues.
I am using JAXWS webservices framework. I am positive that the java side is ok, since I can see the produced schema and WSDL and I see the contents of the requests Flex is dispatching. Do you know by any chance how Flex SOAP impl. handles inheritance ? (extended types in schema). I do not see it supports the xsi:type approach, and I do not see that it uses any other way, so basically by looking on the SOAP requests produced by Flex you can not tell what the implementation of a class is being sent, if the reference is to a base class. Furthermore I think that Flex has a bug, and it sends the contents of a derived object ONLY if the base class has not properties at all. Regards, Dima Gutzeit. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What java webservice technology are you using? We've had issues with weblogic webservices not serializing or deserializing base class proprerties on the java side, we've also had some fun with apache's axis, have you confirmed the java side is well tested before trying to consume those services from flex ? Grant - Original Message - From: Dima Gutzeit [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: 1/12/07 10:01 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Webservices request serialization issues. Hi, I am using Flex 2.0.1 based application to communicate with web services written in Java (JAXWS). System should send requests using complex objects with nested structure and it does it ok. The problem appears when I have inheritance in the object graph. I have base class X , two derived classes, Y and Z, and two more YA and ZA. x - y - ya x - z - za X contains common fields such as ID and NAME. Object that I send contains reference to the base class X, but the instance of the objects is YA or ZA. When the request is being sent, I can see only the common properties taken from X, and none of the impl specific fields, although wsdl/schema defines those. When I change the reference type to Y or Z I get the same behavior, so the only way is to define reference to YA and ZA directly, which is not a nice way to go. Now the funny part that the situation is being solved if I move the common fields from x to y and z (duplicate the fields), and leave the X class empty !!! But this approach stops working if I use array of objects, and not only one. Can anyone shed some light of the serialization logic in case of inheritance? One more thing, what is the way Flex deals with inheritance when reference is not the final impl, but to the base class ??? Other WS entities would use techniques such as xsi:type definitions in the dispatched XML ... For now I am solving it by adding field to each derived class, with the actual class name, catch it on the server side, and add xsi:type manually, but this way is not the one I would like to stick with Thanks in advance. Regards, Dima Gutzeit.
[flexcoders] simple ArrayCollection question
I can't seem too create an ArrayCollection from and array. I have
data being returned (type object) which I can successfully type into
an array, but when I try to then change it to an ArrayCollection it
fails with the follow error. What am I doing wrong?
public function result(data:Object):void
{
var myList:ArrayCollection = ArrayCollection(data as Array);
}
ERROR: TypeError: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to mx.collections.ArrayCollection.
this works fine,
public function result(data:Object):void
{
var myList:Array = data as Array;
}
this is what is being sent to result()
var sendList: Object = ['test 0','test 1','test 2','test 3','test
4','test 5','test 6'];
responder.result( sendList );
.
Thanks much,

[flexcoders] Cairngorm VO question
I am been trying to create VO's that extends ArrayCollection and then use those in my modelLocator to maintain my VO lists. The reason being that I presume I could add functionality to these extended classes down the road without have to retype variables throughout my application. For example, I would create: BookVO BookListVO BookListVO would just extend the ArrayCollection class and hold the list of BookVO's. And of course in my ModelLocator I would type to BookListVO instead of ArrayCollection: public var bookList: BookListVO; However, I am having problems extending the ArrayCollection class properly which makes me wonder wether this is even a good idea. Is there a secret to extending the Array ArrayCollection classes? OR am I headed down the wrong path with my thinking. I also see many people using ICollectionView instead of ArrayCollection. Should I also implement ICollectionView in the BookListVO? I am little confused as to when to implement ICollectionView and when to just work with the ArrayCollection... the Cairngorm store 2.1 example uses both in the ML? -- public var products : ICollectionView; ... public var paymentValidators : ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(); -- thanks, Kevin

[flexcoders] Getting Error: Event Type 'flash.event:event' is unavailable ?????
Hi,
I am getting this error:
Event Type 'flash.event:event' is unavailable
I have this function in my Services.mxml file:
private function loginUser_result( event:ResultEvent ) : void {
dispatchEvent( new Event(userAuthenticated) );
}
Then in my main MXML file I have:
ds:SupportService id=svc
userAuthenticated=mx.controls.Alert.show('Your are now Logged
In');
/
Any idea on why I may get this error?
Thanks
Malik
[flexcoders] Re: Getting Error: Event Type 'flash.event:event' is unavailable ?????
Hi,
I guess a better question is when do I use :
[Event(name=eventName)]
as opposed to:
[Event(name=eventName,type=flash.event.event)] (this gives me that
error in my original post )
Thanks

Re: [flexcoders] simple ArrayCollection question
I solved my own problem! I had forgotten to include the 'new'
keyword...it's getting late in NYC!
code should read:
public function result(data:Object):void
{
var myList:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(data as Array);
}
