[flexcoders] int not serializing properly from Java to ActionScript
I'm properly retrieving a result set from my database, but the
serialization from Java to ActionScript screws up my id field along
the way.
--
My Java VO:
public class TestVO {
private int id;
private String data;
public TestVO() { }
public TestVO(int id, String data) {
this.id = id;
this.data = data;
}
public getID() { return id; }
public setID(int id) { this.id = id; }
public getData() { return data; }
public setData(String data) { this.data = data; }
}
---
My ActionScript VO:
public class TestVO {
public var id:int;
public var data:String;
}
ActionScript outputting the data (the ArrayCollection of my TestVO's
are bound to a list with the following renderer:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:HBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import test.vo.TestVO;
private var vo:TestVO;
[Bindable]
private var str:String;
override public function set data(val:Object):void {
if(val != null) {
super.data = val;
vo = val as TestVO;
str = vo.id + + vo.data;
}
dispatchEvent(new FlexEvent(FlexEvent.DATA_CHANGE));
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Label text={str} /
/mx:HBox
When displaying the data in a list I see data field properly, but
every id displays as 0 in Flex. I've output the records on a JSP page
which uses the same DAO, and the records output properly, so I know
it's getting out of the database properly.
Any suggestions?
Re: [flexcoders] duplicate function definition
Yes, it's because the name is duplicated. Adding an underscore is the usual
practice to mark properties.
I don't think though, that an internal setter is created automatically.
I guess it's just the error message, which is a little bit misleading.
Cheers,
Ralf.

Hi Mayur,
When you define a member variable, a setter method is internally created.
You have to rename your variable vbox and define it as private.

_vbox = val;

[flexcoders] DataGrid Header Randar Example......
Hi All,
I was looking into DataGrid Example from FB's Help of rendaring a
header.
I have used TextArea to display ColIndex in each corresponding
header, which is working fine.
Here, I want to display a combobox with unique value of that
purticular coloumn. When I changed TextArea to ComboBox and
compiled, It doesnt show anything on the screen. Can anyone tell me,
Why?
If I use HBox in place of TextArea and add ComboBox inside HBox,
Combobox appears on the screen but it doesnt listData as it is a
public property of TextArea. How can I get the dataField Name of
Randared column?
Or
Is there any other way to rendar a grid header to populate the
combobox with using column value?
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Sanjay sharma

[flexcoders] No core library?
Hi there, does someone know if there is still a core library in AS3 as it was in AS2? A library where all basic classes (Number, String but also Sprite) are defined as intrinsic or native classes? In the Flex builder is the Global.as for the primitives, but without Sprite or similar. I need these definitions for the tool I wrote to get Information about these clases (inheritance, methods etc.). I could write such definitions by hand but that would be error prone. Are there such clases or is there a different way for AS3? Thanks for your help, Arne

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Using data in an Array Collection
the item param is row data, what is in that row of the array collection and
the column is that column in the grid.
basically what happens in this particular labelFunction is that it looks at
a specific field in the array collection and determine its value, then it
sets a string to be returned and displayed in that column for that row. You
could return a number, boolean etc just by changing the return type of the
function.
make sense?

[flexcoders] Changing TextFormat
Hello all, I posted a note earlier about using Mathematical Equations in Flex / Flash. I know that mx.core.UITextFormat (which inherits from flash.text.TextFormat) controls how text in a text field is displayed. Does anyone know how I would create a new class to manage a text field so that the tags which are normally parsed (bi, etc...) are parsed normally. but if it is wrapped in a mathml tag, it would be parsed by another class? I hope this makes sense. Basically, I am trying to implement a system for displaying MathML information within a Flex app. Thanks in advance. David Tucker

Re: [flexcoders] How to get the current build options FB uses?
My thinking here was that I could dump out a configuration XML file that I could specify on the commandline that the compiler would use. So: 1. Use a batch file to get the config file: mxmlc -dump-config AppName-config.xml 2. Use a batch file to generate the SWF: mxmlc -load-config AppName-config.xml Here's the output from step 1: D:\Flex\testmxmlc -dump-config test-config.xml Loading configuration file C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2\Flex SDK 2\fram eworks\flex-config.xml Writing configuration dump to test-config.xml Error: a target file must be specified I got the commandline code from the docs. From here I would assume step 2 wouldn't work and it doesn't: D:\Flex\testmxmlc -load-config test-config.xml Loading configuration file D:\Flex\test\test-config.xml D:\Flex\test\test-config.xml(91): Error: unable to open 'libs' /library-path The test-config.xml file is written to my project directory. And just having the test-config.xml file there causes Flex Builder to produce the following error in the Problems view: unable to open 'mxml-manifest.xml'test-config.xmltestline 101 But, if your response is any indication, this should be working. So why am I getting these errors? Is there something obvious here that I missed?

Would it not be so much more useful to have FB be able to dump out a file that can simply be used by the commandline compiler? I know it would be for me. I build and test using Flex Builder but my projects are then integrated into a build system. The build system is not based on Eclipse. What would be ideal is to have FB be able to dump out a config file that I can simply pass along with my source for the build process. As it stands now I need to write my own (or modify the dump) config file any time I make certain changes to my project. Doesn't Flex Builder already have this information when it performs a build? Could it not dump THAT out instead? Maybe this is already possible - can anyone confirm/deny? -- Derek Vadneau -- Derek Vadneau

[flexcoders] Can I use mx:Image to load images dynamically from an image.cfm page?
Our flex developer recently left our company, and I've been given the task of resuming work on an enormous project he was involved in. Right now, I'm trying to do something where I display a tile list of images depending on the results from a database query returned by a call to a method in a CFC. I've written a coldfusion page called image.cfm that can take a URL parameter (the ID of the image from the database), retrieve the file from our filesystem, and simulate the content of the image by doing a cfcontent to spit out the binary data of the image. This is obviously handy, because I don't need to know the location of any of the image files on my fileserver. I can simply request image.cfm?id=12345 and the ColdFusion page will handle the rest, returning the image with ID 12345. This works beautifully on our web site. The problem I'm having now is that I'm trying to implement something similar using Flex. Each time I try, Flex only displays a broken image. As I was trying to figure this out, I broke things down to as simple as I could make them. I created a sample image called test.jpg. I also modified image.cfm so that it only loads test.jpg. When I navigate directly to image.cfm with my web browser http://myserver.com/image.cfm It displays the image just exactly as I'd expect it to. However, when I run my Flex application with the following code: mx:Image x=0 y=0 source=image.cfm/ mx:Image x=100 y=0 source=test.jpg/ The second mx:Image displays just fine, but the first one does not. Does anyone know if it's possible to do something like this from inside Flex? I'm very new to Flex, but not to development in general. I'd appreciate any information you might have. Thanks!
[flexcoders] compiled swf does not show changes
Hi guys, this is a little OT as it more the tool than a code question
but we keep running into this issue.
We compile on windows using the flex ide, and sometimes I'll change an
mxml file, save it and it builds but the change is not seen in the
browser. I've got caching disabled and we've tested in both firefox and
IE. We have to backup the project, delete it and then re-add it to
eclipse and then it starts working ok again..
I removed all the componets from main.mxml and compiled it and it still
showed stale components. Even running it through the debugger...
its driving me nuts, has anyone else seen this (flex builder version
2.0.1)

The good news, however, is that the source code is available to you with view source (from the online version at http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/consulting/styleexplorer/Flex2StyleExplorer. html), and you can go into the colorPicker components (components/colorPicker, components/doubleColorPicker, and components/quadColorPicker) and change the visibilty of the images to be always visible and recompile for your very own version where color wheels are always visible. -Peter On 2/13/07 1:59 PM, Brian Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Peter, The new style explorer's great, but man you guys are killing me with the roll over to show the advanced color picker.

Re: [flexcoders] svn and flex not getting along
I've been playing with the ANT tasks, and if you use ANT to do your compilation the task for the html-wrapper will output your html stuff without needing to have the html-template directory in your project directory structure at all. Not really a direct answer to your question, but if you're doing a project using SVN you might want to convert over to doing everything using ANT anyway.

Re: [flexcoders] Changing TextFormat
1. subclass mx.core.UITextField. 2. override function set htmlText(value:String) or override whatever other you are using to set the text 3. read the string coming into above function.

[flexcoders] Re: should i convert pngs to jpegs before embedding them in a flash movie?
The SWF compiler when it embeds them should be flattening them. The Fireworks PNG files are layered, but the Flash Player does not support layered PNGs. If I recall correctly the Fireworks PNG files have a composite layer that is rendered by default and the swf compiler simply pulls in that layer and discards the rest. I could be wrong, it has been a while (6-9 months) since I've used Fireworks, I'm a photoshop guy. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, jpc14_99 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There is no reason to switch to JPEG, unless you like degraded pixel- based images.

The htmlText property on Text won't cut it as it only supports a trivial subset of html.

[flexcoders] Re: should i convert pngs to jpegs before embedding them in a flash movie?
What I mean is the Flash Player only displays the composite layer, all other layers are discarded. If you are loading png files directly rather than embeding them then you should flatten them. But if you Embed them in the swf then the compiler does the work of stripping out the extra layers. And of course you never lost data, the player can't alter your source files. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Merrill, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The SWF compiler when it embeds them should be flattening them.

Try using the cfm page's full URL as the source property, just to make sure you aren't running into a problem with relative paths. mx:Image x=0 y=0 source=http://myserver.com/image.cfm/ If that still doesn't work, you can try setting some handlers, probably on the ioError event, to see if more information on the error condition is available. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, k.hemmen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Our flex developer recently left our company, and I've been given the task of resuming work on an enormous project he was involved in. Right now, I'm trying to do something where I display a tile list of images depending on the results from a database query returned by a call to a method in a CFC. I've written a coldfusion page called image.cfm that can take a URL parameter (the ID of the image from the database), retrieve the file from our filesystem, and simulate the content of the image by doing a cfcontent to spit out the binary data of the image. This is obviously handy, because I don't need to know the location of any of the image files on my fileserver. I can simply request image.cfm?id=12345 and the ColdFusion page will handle the rest, returning the image with ID 12345. This works beautifully on our web site. The problem I'm having now is that I'm trying to implement something similar using Flex. Each time I try, Flex only displays a broken image. As I was trying to figure this out, I broke things down to as simple as I could make them. I created a sample image called test.jpg. I also modified image.cfm so that it only loads test.jpg. When I navigate directly to image.cfm with my web browser http://myserver.com/image.cfm It displays the image just exactly as I'd expect it to. However, when I run my Flex application with the following code: mx:Image x=0 y=0 source=image.cfm/ mx:Image x=100 y=0 source=test.jpg/ The second mx:Image displays just fine, but the first one does not. Does anyone know if it's possible to do something like this from inside Flex? I'm very new to Flex, but not to development in general. I'd appreciate any information you might have. Thanks!
RE: [flexcoders] New Version of Flex Style Explorer with Tons on New Features
It makes sense to ignore CSS errors when a CSS file is first parsed at runtime. You want a best effort rendering of the CSS. Web pages aren't required to be compiled and typechecked before they're put on the server. If they were, you would in fact want to catch the error at authoring time. Basically, it doesn't make any sense for a compiler to ignore CSS errors, particularly since in Flex they result in code generation. If we moved to runtime parsed CSS where the compiler never sees it, I'd expect that should do the best effort approach, though. -rg From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chuck White Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2007 12:35 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] New Version of Flex Style Explorer with Tons on New Features Peter, isn't that a bug in the Flex compiler?

[flexcoders] CFC issue with fresh install of Flex 2.0.1
The machine I have been working on was imaged from win2k to XP. When I installed a fresh copy of flex from the 2.0.1 installer I also installed the CF extensions that are included. First thing that I noticed is that I had to un-select Ignore features not applicable to this environment. So install the zip extension included with the download and restart. It included the wizard but not cfc support. I can force the creation of a cfc by typing in sample.cfc but it reacts like a basic text file with none of the type prompting available and other features. Before the computer was imaged I had installed 2.0.0 and the cf extensions then upgrading to 2.0.1 with now issues and I would simply do the same thing but I don't have a 2.0.0 installer. Has anyone else run into this yet or know a way around it? Any help would be appreciated.

I can duplicate this on any machine running IE, and fix it on any machine by installing and running ServiceCapture. The moment I don't fire up ServiceCapture though, the app stops working (no web service calls). Any thoughts, suggestions, etc. would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance...

[flexcoders] Mystery space
Anyone experience any issues where Flex just throws extra space into the layout, causing elements to jump or get bumped out of their parent containers? I have this issue with an application and have spent the majority of the day trying to resolve it. There are three custom components loaded into a TabNavigator (ive tried other layout containers too). The first element has about a 50px space below it when it loads, and on certain events the screen also jumps. The space does not exist below the other two components and they utilize almost the exact same layout and code. I have also tried changing the order of these and the same component will always behave the same way regardless of the position. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Matt,
That returns the URL of the swf itself, not the URL of the parent
browser window in which the swf lives (unless the swf was called
directly, not within an HTML page, I suppose).
Same goes for the Application.application.parameters - it returns the

No matter though, as I posted earlier in the thread, that's good enough :)
