[flexcoders] layout like My Yahoo page?
Hi Flexperts... me again! this time, a new question as far as i can tell since I didn't find anything like this in the archives... i'd like to create an application like the My Yahoo page where you can move around your components. We've currently got a canvas that contains several HDividedBox's and VDividedBox's but we'd like to be able to move them around, resize them, etc., sort of like what My Yahoo has...any idea if Flex has this built in or will we have to extend components to do this? I think My Yahoo is built using Ajax (correct me if I am wrong please) so figure Flex must have something similar or better? thanks for any help! Christine

Re: [flexcoders] Crossdomain
There is Security Sandbox so you can not draw until you have right permissions, just having crossdomain.xml is not sufficient. You need to explictly set checkPolicyFile flag so that Flash Player 9 downloads the policy file (crossdomain.xml) and grants the access to your code, if it is allowed in policy file. I am not sure which API you are using to load images. If you are using Loader, then check for this. Loader.load (..) method's second param is instance of LoaderContext, this is where you can set checkPolicyFile=true.

We came across a situation in a very large Flex2 application where we wanted to know the types of items inside of collections at runtime. I can provide more details if desired, but in short we are doing a lot of automatic detection of object and property types to make a running locally on xml version of the product work with very little pain and very little extra configuration. In Java 1.5, you can specify these types like this: ListContactVO foo; In Flex2, if you have something like this: var foo : ArrayCollection; There is obviously no way of discovering at runtime, by reading the class definition, what types of objects are meant to be in that ArrayCollection. So we took advantage of the metadata construct in Flex2 to create a sort of annotation, which would make the Flex2 example look like this: [Collection(type=ContactVO)] var foo : ArrayCollection; Now by reading the metadata of the property foo, we are able to determine at runtime both that foo is an ArrayCollection, and that it is meant to contain ContactVO object instances. This doesn't have the Java benefit of actually enforcing the fact that only ContactVOs are in the collection, but it at least allows us to make very useful convention-based assumptions. This is a pretty powerful option in my opinion, unfortunately Flex2 blindly throws out all metadata it doesn't understand. Through some google code searching, we were able to discover an obscure compiler option that looks like this: -keep-as3-metadata+=Collection This option would then make it such that Flex does not throw out [Collection] metadata. The problem is, this compiler option only works in DEBUG mode. In debug mode all of our code affected by this works beautifully and without fault (and would probably be a very useful tool to provide to the community). In RUN mode, it fails miserably. In short, Flex2 is ignoring these extra compiler options when not in DEBUG mode. We are no longer able to see the [Collection] metadata. Does anyone have any idea for working around this? We are using ANT for our builds, and I can guarantee that the -keep-as3-metadata compiler option is being used identically in all cases. It simply gets ignored in RUN mode, and Flex2 goes back to throwing out all metadata it doesn't understand.
[flexcoders] Nested Repeater problem
I have a situation where I need to call a RemoteObject that returns a set of questions. I set the dataProvider of my Repeater to this ArrayCollection. The Result Handler of this RO loops through the ArrayCollection and calls another RO to retreive the answers( may have multiple answers per question). the problem I have is that each answer for the questions retreived are the answer of only the last question. I know why this is occuring, I have the same dataProvider being used for the inner Repeater. My question is how can I fix this. I have tried to insert the answer results from each question into an Array, but I cannot get the Repeater to work when I try this.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: DataService fill not filling on first try? timing issue?
One of the nice ways to handle these situations in Flex is to use data
binding. Since the system listens for and handles events automatically,
you can do something like this in MXML:
currentState={theUser.length gt; 1 amp;amp;
theUser.getItemAt(0).administratorGroupKey == 1 ? 'AdminOption' : ''}
This is a bit awkward because of the and chars in the data binding
expression.It is easier when you are dealing with the return value
of the getItem method since that has a simple result property you
can bind to, or when you are binding to the array collection as a whole
since you can bind to theUser property directly.
If data binding is not appropriate, the other change I'd recommend is
that rather than adding the processAdminOption as a listener for the
result event on the ID_USERS data service, I'd set processAdminOption
as a responder on the AsyncToken returned by the fill. It is a
stylistic change but I find it easier to manage responders to specific
fill operations rather than use the event which is fired for any
operation performed on that data service. It avoids the if/else logic
in your event handler to figure out which operation this is.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: DataService fill not filling on first try?
timing issue?
Continuing in the tradition of replying to my own posts when I find
the solution...
I found the issue is caused by the fill method being processed
asynchronously to the actionscript execution (duh!) I didn't know
that obviously ;)
I just moved my code that processes the returned object into an event
handler that gets called when a result is returned by the fill...
So one question, is there a way to avoid filling the first array
collection and just dealing with the object that is returned in the
ResultEvent?
it looks like this (it's ugly):
private function getAdminOption(username:String):void
{
var theUser:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection;
ID_USERS.addEventListener(result, processAdminOption);
ID_USERS.fill(theUser,IdUser.single,[username]);
}
private function processAdminOption(event: ResultEvent):void
{
if (event.result.length != 0)
{
if (event.result[0].administratorGroupKey == 1)
{
currentState='AdminOption';
}
else
{
currentState='';
}
}
else
{
currentState='';
}
}
cheers,
JK

Looking at the source code for the Slider component (the 2.0 version, not 2.01) (Slider.as) I'd say you'd have to implement your own Slider Class. Whenever you change the thumbsCount, the component will delete all thumbs and recreate them. It should be quite trivial to do so: Just copy and paste all the slider code into your new class and implement your changes. Impelementing the change in the createThumbs function would be my first idea, but I haven't tried. Alternatively perhaps you could just remember the values, reset the thumbscount and then set the values to the remaining thumb. Don't know if that would be possible without the remaining thumb flickering/moving though. HTH Ben

[flexcoders] Tree component bug with Flex builder 2.01 update
Hi folks, I upgraded recently to 2.01 and noticed this bug while testing the app I'm working on. When adding/deleting a leaf to/from node at run time when the node is open, the same node duplicated with all the leafs appears beneath itself, all roll overs are also completely messed up. You should be able to experience it by using the code on the adobe website like I did at: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/quickstart/working_with_tree/ Copy and paste the sample code of Add and remove leaf nodes at run time. Please note that you will have to delete an extra double quote (detected by flex builder). Run the app, add an operation employee from the form below the tree.

[flexcoders] Flex + PayPal.
Hi everyone.
All very simple.
In HTML I use this and it's working. I see paypal page with correct
information.
form method=post action= https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-
bin/webscr
input type=hidden name=cmd value=_xclick
input type=hidden name=business value=[EMAIL PROTECTED]
input type=hidden name=item_name value=Shopping cart

input type=hidden name=amount value=42.00
input type=hidden name=no_shipping value=0
input type=hidden name=rm value=1
input type=submit value=Checkout
/FORM
In Flex I use this:
var url : String = https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr;;
var variables : URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.cmd = _xclick;
variables.business = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
variables.item_name = Shopping cart;
variables.item_number = 22;
variables.amount = 15.00;
variables.no_shipping = 0;
variables.rm = 1;
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.data = variables;
try
{
navigateToURL(request);
}
catch (e:Error)
{
}
And I see paypal page with We are sorry, we are experiencing
temporary difficulties. Please try again later. ...
Anybody know how it fix?

RE: [flexcoders] Cairngorm - Question on using ResultHandler
You are doing things the right way. If after you login you want to do some
more, look at the SequenceCommand.
You would basically add a executeNextCommand() statement after your

datagrids after the user has been authenticated and then load the home page of
the app as I am doing above.

[flexcoders] Re: Does Flex work with Java without FDS?
Really depends on what you need to do, but per the below link it's not a recommended architecture. Isn't IT fun? :) http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2003/02/26/flash_remoting.html Use a Service-Oriented Architecture While you can directly access and invoke methods on servlets, JSPs, and EJBs with Flash Remoting, it does not mean that you should. It is important here to consider what Macromedia is doing today, what they are likely to do tomorrow, and where enterprise application development is going in general. In all of these areas, Service-Oriented Architectures feature heavily. A Service-Oriented Architecture describes an application designed to expose a set of loosely-coupled business services that may be accessed by a range of clients to assemble application functionality. Clients may be J2EE or .NET applications or Flash clients. This architecture makes the applications providing the services flexible and scalable. Enterprise application developers are rapidly adopting Service-Oriented Architectures, using web services to communicate between applications. The EJB 2.1 specification will require that all J2EE application servers provide the ability to expose Stateless Session Beans as web services. .NET already relies heavily on web services. This all suggests that Macromedia released Flash Remoting as an intermediate step toward allowing Flash to communicate via web services. Developers should heed this trend toward Service-Oriented Architectures and use Flash Remoting to support a Service-Oriented Architecture that can easily be moved to web services in their own applications.

[flexcoders] Flex working directory
Hi List, I try to integrate FLEX 2.0 applications into the Liferay Portal. At a first glance this should not to difficult but as each of us knows the details are difficult ;-) Until now I tried to use FLEX applications which load their information from XML files. In the FLEX application there is a relative path from the MXML file to the resource files ( like XML files, Images etc. ). The standalone FLEX application works like a charm. Then I put the FLEX application into a JSR 168 portlet container by embedding the SWF file into the view JSP file of the portlet.

Re: [flexcoders] variable change event
You can dispatch event from your custom MXML component...
I suggest, having setters/getters functions in your custom component.
Whenever a property is set,
dispatch appropriate event.

I apologize for the slow response, but I wanted to say Thanks. The flex.data.DataServiceTransactionis just what I needed. Now, to transparently monitor the changes made during a service call... Thanks again, Luke Pillow http://deepthoughts.orsomethinglikethat.com --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Jeff Vroom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Luke, Take a look at the javadoc for the class: flex.data.DataServiceTransaction. This is an api you can use to tell FDMS about changes made to objects that did not originate from flex clients using the AS DataService object to initiate these changes. It assumes those changes have already been applied to the database - it only manages updating the clients with those changes. This is used by the flexcab sample and to some extent by the crm sample. So probably after your remote object calls which update the database, you need to add a few lines of code to use this api to let clients know about those changes.

I am having no problems updating an Employee's properties via a Flex UI app and seeing those changes being pushed to all other flex clients that are viewing that Employee - Basic FDMS right? The problem I am having (and maybe it's by design), is when I invoke a remote method on EmployeeService that takes an Employee (FDMS managed) as a parameter and changes the name and saves the changes to the database via Hibernate. That name change (or any persisted value change) is not being pushed to any Flex clients - including the one that invoked the service - and is only visible upon forcing a data refresh from the Flex client. How can I force database changes being made through non-flex clients to be pushed to the flex clients via FDMS? Is there a way to notify FMDS that object/row with id=# was updated and the updates should be pushed to the clients? I would think that this would be a common problem since you wouldn't want to put your business logic in the client action script and instead move that logic to a back end/middle tier that would surely alter the object state while processing business logic. I've been looking at the HibernateAssember, HibernateManager, and HibernateType classes in hopes to gain some insight, but all that I found is that maybe any of the data changes made to an object needs to be done through a hibernate session that was created from the same syncSessionFactory that is built in HibernateManager using a modified Hibernate configuration that has the following property hibernate.current_session_context_class property set to flex.data.adapters.FlexHibernateSessionContext I would love for someone to tell me that I'm over complicating things and I should use fill_in_the_blank simple solution.

Re: [flexcoders] Command-line compiler Java errors
Derek,
You do need the Java SDK as per the Flex 2 SDK system requirements bellow:
Flex 2 SDK
Windows 2000, XP, or Server 2003, Java 1.4 (Sun, IBM, or BEA) or 1.5 (Sun)
Mac OS X 10.4.x, Java 1.5 (as shipped from Apple) on
PowerPC and Intel processor
Redhat Enterprise Linux 3 or 4, Suse 10, Java 1.4 (Sun, IBM, or BEA) or 1.5
(Sun)
Solaris 9, 10, Java 1.4 or 1.5 (Sun) Compilers only
512 MB of RAM , 1 GB recommended
200 MB of free disk space You can find the above information at:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flex/productinfo/systemreqs/
Since you already have Flex Builder installed and working, it's probably just a
matter of setting you environment 'path' to point to the right Java version.
To check the Java version you are currently pointing to, try 'java -version'
from the command line.
I hope this helps,

The above is what I get after running one of the samples included in
the Flex SDK 2 directory. I tried my own projects with the same
result.
I'm not sure what's going on here. Looks like something about the
version of JRE I have. Am I right in this assumption? If so, what is
required for the Flex 2 SDK? I couldn't find anything about requiring
JRE on the SDK pages on Adobe.

[flexcoders] How to vertically center the label of a ComboBox
Hello, our design includes an oversized ComboBox that is about twice as tall as the default component. Setting the height attribute is easy enough, but the label remains a fixed distance from the top rather than being vertically centered. I am assuming this is simply a styling property oversight and am hoping someone can point me in the right direction on how to correct this behavior. Thanks, Ben
Re: [flexcoders] Re: Is Flash a single thread application?
I can't find the document explaining this, but I've certainly seen it somewhere before (perhaps at a conference?)... the basics is that the Flash Player is definitely multi-threaded, its just the ActionScript code that's single threaded (probably what the original poster got the impression from). The Flash Player has a rendering thread, a networking thread (well, probably multiple networking threads like a web browser, one per connection), and the VM thread. Troy.

See the following documentation on addEventListener function http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/flash/events/EventDispatcher.html#addEventListener () By default, priority is '0' for user added events, so they will fire in the order added. There's some constants defined in the EventPriority class that the framework uses when adding event listeners for things such as Bindings, Effects, etc. Hope this helps.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3.0 - What happened to letting Flex 2 bed in?
I'm psyched about what I am hearing about the next iteration. They have stated that they aren't going to be making big architectural rewrites now, but focus on stability and smaller iterative versions which makes sense. Also, note; they are just begining to talk about it now, they are not releasing it now. If they announce it formally in the spring it won't be until fall or winter at the very least until it's released (if it is small) and next year if it's big. I doubt if that decision will be made until after they field ideas, but that's somewhere between a year and a half and two and a half years, which is a long time. I think that small releases every 6-9 months would also be great if they could manage that schedule wise. They did the right thing by spending 6 months fixing bugs and getting it to work on the mac, now they need to look forward again.There is still a lot of low hanging fruit that they can add, especially with flex builder, while having folk fix problems full time. They will still need some new features to attract folk to it, but if you want folk to work on it full time, there has to be a point where we give them more money for it and new features are the most traditional way to take the sting out of that. The reason I wanted to respond to this thread is that I think this feeling of it being too soon is born from the fact that they are discussing it so early and I want to make sure that the discussing it early policy isn't discouraged by the negative feelings. Why? Because in the past with flash development if you were developing a component set and about halfway done, the chances were good that there was already a version from the mothership about to come out and make the work unnecessary. You never knew what was being developed, so you never knew what to avoid doing yourself. The important thing is for us to tell them early what we would like and for them to let us know as much as possible as early as possible what they are acting on, so that other developers can know what Adobe isn't doing so that they know what niches are open for independent work. Just my thoughts -Cort

[flexcoders] Help with Variable ItemRenderer
I am trying to create an MXML ItemRenderer that displays a different state depending on it's data. Its state does not change by any user interaction. For instance, if data.type = 'text', show the label state, else show the image state. Where can I set currentState so that each itemRenderer displays as it should? Is this even possible? All of my renderers always turn out one way or the other. I'm beginning to think I have to do this in ActionScript... or maybe a hack where I fire a function on creationComplete that changes the data.type to some other value and back again so that the binding fires?? Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

[flexcoders] Any ways to put verticalAxis on the rightside only for a barchart?
Hi guys... I know there's a simple way to put a vertical axis on the right side as long as a columnchart is concerned... But for a bar chart, if you put a vertical axis on the right side, with a verticalAxisRenderer, mx:verticalAxisRenderer mx:AxisRenderer id=myVerticalAxisRenderer placement=right / /mx:verticalAxisRenderer I think that the chart series items should be starting just from the opposite side, which is from right to left..

[flexcoders] site-wide adjustments - is it even possible?
I have created a smooth scroll component that extends a Container class where I have overridden the scrollChildren() method. I came into a project late and the code base is rather large at this point. There are many many places in the code that needs this new component shoe-horned in. I have been asked to see if I can provide a site-wide adjustment to the scrolling functionality that will apply the smooth scrolling style without manually replacing every instance of the code that needs to be touched. I am pretty sure that there is not a way after investigating the framework and common sense, but I thought that I would ask this board anyway, is it possible? Is there a compiler setting?
Re: [flexcoders] site-wide adjustments - is it even possible?
In AS2/AS1, you used to be able to hack the prototype so all
instances used a different method at runtime.
mx.containers.Container.scrollChildren = mx.containers.Container.old;
mx.containers.Container.scrollChildren = function()
{
// your stuff here
};
Unfortunately, I think prototype is read-only in AS3.
Can't you just replace the Container class that is in the frameworks
directory with your own modified copy, compile a new SWC, and use
that one instead of the main one?
