[flexcoders] Re: A question about rsl files and path
First all, thanks, Brian, for your answer. I'm using Flex builder path Add SWC, I'm triying with your options, but I can't see any difference as result. When I build my Library, I get a file library.swf, packed in my .swc. When I build my project with this library (included as Right click project properties Flex Build Path Library Path Add SWC ), I have some files in the root directory, AND library.swf, also in the root directory. I want to remove this file, or, at least, change it to a subdirectory, if it's possible. I'm quite sure that the solution is a simple use of paths and compiler options. When working with applications and flex libraries side by side just include the library as a project. Right click project properties Flex Build Path Library Path Add Project You then may need to change the build order of your projects to make sure the Library gets built before the application
[flexcoders] How to determine in XML structure that node of interest is at root level?
Dear flexcoders, I have the following XML: root Folder id=1/ Folder id=2 Station id=1 / Station id=7/ /Folder Folder id=5 / /root How to determine that XML node, say Folder id=5 is located at rool level of XML structure? Pretend that variable 'myNode' contains a reference to Folder id=5 XML node.

[flexcoders] How to invoke a class built as a swc automatically with the use of mixin?
Hi
My problem is that I have a Flex library file (swc) that contains a
class that holds several methods that I want several Flex-projects to
register with the ExternalInterface API so that they can be reached
from Javascript or ActiveX.
I want the Flex project to just include the swc file.
I figure that I need to use mixin and to register the library class
with the APPLICATION_COMPLETE.
I want to be able to add this swc file as a library, and without
making any calls to this class, making the addCallback methods be
registered automatically.
How do I do that?
Thanks

[flexcoders] Re: Accessing nested DisplayObjects programatically
I'm not trying to acces the children from MXML file, but from a Controller class. My app is set up in the following way: application script var ctrl:Controller = new Controller(this); script !-- all the nested ui elements here -- /application What I wanted to achieve is that I don't have to have any code in the MXML file (well appart from instantiating controller) and that I controll all the UI from a Controller class which upon construction creates the references to all the UI elements I'm interested in. Now, this works by casting to Conatainers and drilling down with the getChildByName() but I don't know if I want to do that anymore. Beacuse: I heard that in Adobe labs they dropped this concept of a controller helper and are instead relying quite heavily on the code inside MXML. Heavily means all the UI stuff. I'm quite new so I don't know which approach to take. I'm personally n favour of keeping as much as possiblenthe classes, but if the Adobe folks say different then I'm sure they also know what they're talking about. --- I have heard the Adobe folks advise against using getChildByName() because name is internal and may not forever equal id. Why aren't you just using id?

The return type of getChildByName() is DisplayObject so I didn't even think of typing it to something else.

You say this is a different download? Is there a link? I just went to:

This happens when I put a ColumnChart or a BarChart on a panel in design mode and compile. Some of the other charts work fine. If i rollback to the old sdk dir the app will compile without error. (I unzipped the hotfix, selected all and copy/pasted the contents into the old sdk dir and said yes when it asked me to replace all. After the update I had to reneter my serial numbers and copy the charts.swc file from the old sdk dir to the new sdk/framworks/lib dir as it is not in the hotfixes frameworks/lib dir. FWIW, OSX on PPC, FB 2.0.1 with charting. Does anyone have any clues to offer on how I can fix this problem? Other than to not use the hotfix. Thanks for any help. - shaun
[flexcoders] Re: TextArea htmltext parsing
Thanks for the update... i've also made progress in my spell checker suggest words algorithm. I'm basically using a modified version of the Levenshtein algorithm. I've found that with some minor tweaks it works great for 90% of mispelled words. I'm always looking to speed up the word distance algorithm Levenshtein provides. As far as UI, i just modeled the spell checker dialog window MS Word uses. It seams to be the most intuitive and what most people know. I would be curious to know your performance since everytime you want to suggest a word or check some text for bad spellings you have to go back to the server.

PHP will check each word until it finds an incorrect word, then it will send the wrong word back, along with 10 suggestions. I'm not that good at PHP, so I hired someone to do this for me. We've worked out a fairly comprehensive logorithm that I'm quite pleased with the suggested words it returns. I'm still working on the Flex part, but how I envision this is that Flex gets the wrong word back, searches for it and highlights/underlines it. The user is presented with a list of words they can replace it with, or they can type in a new word (there are some good examples of similar stuff in the Flex Builder Help/Flex 2 Developer's Guide: Selecting and modifying text and Programming RichTextEditor Subcontrols). Programming RichTextEditor Subcontrols has a section near the end that has a find/replace Application that uses a RichTextEditor with a TitleWindow popup. Anyway, after correcting or adding the wrong word, I re-send the word Array to PHP for checking. Since I'll allow them to modify the text during the spell checking process, I resend the whole array until there are no incorrect words. Still thinking about how to give them the option to ignore words, without adding to their custom dictionary, so the spell check doesn't get caught in a loop of returning a word that the user says is correct, but they don't want to add.

[flexcoders] Re: flex authenticating and sessions...
What I do is this: authenticate the user's ID and password. If the credentials check out, I generate a UUID token which I then send back to the client. The database table logs the token, the user ID it belongs to, and a timestamp representing the last time the token was used. On subsequent calls to the server, the token is passed along as a parameter. Before filling a request, the server side components all pass the token they receive to a security component which validates the token against the database table, checks the timestamp is within a given timeout window, and updates the last-used timestamp if everything checks out.

[flexcoders] Disapperaring images in datagrid
Hi All,
I have a strange problem with images I am putting in a datagrid. I
have two columns in a datagrid populated with icons. I get the image
name from an xml file and use an itemrenderer to display the icons. In
creating the page everything works fine, but as soon as I move the
compiled files to another persons machine, or even a different
directory on my own, the images don't appear. When moving the files
I've checked to make sure the images are moved along with everything
else.
Here's the datagrid (for brevity I've only included the two columns):
mx:DataGrid x=10 y=35 width=765 height=195 rowHeight=18
headerColors=[#ed8e5f, #ed8e5f] headerHeight=20
borderColor=#66 id=dgInvoiceResults selectedIndex=0
wordWrap=false alternatingItemColors=[#dd,#cc]
textAlign=left dataProvider={invoicesXML.item}
creationComplete=totalGrid()
mx:columns
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=! dataField=indicator
width=30
headerRenderer=comps.cmpHeaderRenderer
itemRenderer=comps.invoices.indicator /
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Source
dataField=source width=55
headerRenderer=comps.cmpHeaderRenderer
itemRenderer=comps.invoices.invSource
/
/mx:columns
/mx:DataGrid
and here are the two renderers:
Indicator:
mx:HBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
paddingBottom=0 paddingLeft=0 paddingRight=0 paddingTop=2
width=50 height=20 horizontalAlign=center
mx:Image source=../images/{data.indicator} width=14 height=14
left=5 toolTip={data.alert}/
/mx:HBox
and invSource:
mx:HBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
paddingBottom=0 paddingLeft=0 paddingRight=0 paddingTop=2
width=50 height=20 horizontalAlign=center
mx:Image source=../images/{data.invSource} width=14 height=14/
/mx:HBox
Can anyone see why the images display correctly when in the same
directory as the source files but not when they are moved elsewhere?
Thanks,
Jack

[flexcoders] Re: Module Interface Problems
From my experience there is a definite timing issue when loading modules. The ModuleLoader ready event is fired before the Module is fully loaded and you have the ability to talk to it through a common interface (hence the error reporting access to a null value). I would term this one as a bug that is not yet documented by Adobe. This could be because some modules take longer than expected to load, I have no idea, just the observed problem with talking with modules within the ready. I also attempted to use an interface to talk with a module when the the progress event had reached 100%, but still no luck. A possible workaround would be to fire some event from inside the loaded module that tells the outside world that it is indeed loaded. The other option is to set a timer interval and keep checking if the module is loaded (meaning not reporting NULL in the ready event handler). Unless someone else as a viable solution? Adobe?

[flexcoders] Validating Datagrid

I then check the validation array to see if it has any invalid values and if so disable the submit button.

I also attempted to use an interface to talk with a module when the the progress event had reached 100%, but still no luck. A possible workaround would be to fire some event from inside the loaded module that tells the outside world that it is indeed loaded.

You can set the paddingLeft and paddingRight attributes inline to
adjust to your liking.
mx:ComboBox x=443 y=230 paddingLeft=-3 paddingRight=0
mx:dataProvider
mx:Array
mx:Object label=Item 1/
mx:Object label=Item 2/
mx:Object label=Item 3/
mx:Object label=Item 4/

[flexcoders] Checkbox in DataGrid cell won't turn invisible!
Can someone help please ? In the following itemRenderer code for a dataGridColumn, I'm trying to have the checkbox not show - but it seems that despite having 'visible=false' or even 'includeInLayout=false' it still shows up! In reality, of course, I have a function defining whether or not I show the checkbox but to illustrate the problem I'm having I think the following is as basic an example as I can get: mx:DataGridColumn headerText= dataField=@itemSelected mx:itemRenderer mx:Component mx:CheckBox visible=false/ /mx:Component /mx:itemRenderer /mx:DataGridColumn As you can see, checkbox is forced to false always - but this is totally ignored and the checkbox shows up on all rows! Does anyone know why this happens - and how I can resolve it ? Thanks, Jamie.
Re: [flexcoders] Checkbox in DataGrid cell won't turn invisible!
Hi Jamie,
I believe this is a bug in 2.0.1. I have run into the same issue with trying
to set a datagrid column to visible=false. It seems to be ignored.
Can you try and build your project in 2.0 and see if the issue still occurs?

[flexcoders] Re: Module Interface Problems
Using ModuleManager to load the modules allows me to access the
Interface methods(in this case 'selectedMedia'). It seems that
casting the child within ModuleLoader as an ISoundPlayer interface (in
my example) always reports the child as NULL when loaded. However,
casting the loaded module as a DisplayObject gives me access to the
methods.
Example:
private var info:IModuleInfo;
public var sm:Object;
private function initComponent():void
{
info = ModuleManager.getModule(SoundPlayer.swf);
info.addEventListener(ModuleEvent.READY,onLoadComplete)
info.addEventListener(ModuleEvent.ERROR,onLoaderError);
info.load();
}
private function onLoadComplete(event:ModuleEvent):void
{
trace(Completed and ready);
sm = info.factory.create() as DisplayObject;
soundPlayer.addChild(sm as DisplayObject); // add to display
if( sm != null ) {
trace(w, its ready);
sm.selectedMedia = _mp3URL; //the function in the interface
} else {
trace(sound player not ready);
}
}
private function onLoaderError(event:ModuleEvent):void
{
trace(Problem + event.errorText);
}
mx:Canvas id=soundPlayer width=100% height=100%/
// Interface
package com.custom.interfaces
{
import flash.events.IEventDispatcher;
public interface ISoundPlayer extends IEventDispatcher

[flexcoders] Modules vs RSLs - Are they mutually exclusive?
I am wondering if modules have taken over all the functionality of an RSL? From what I can tell, using Modules with load-externs and link-report should be able to split an application up into many SWFs, and reduce file size. Or are RSLs still required in order to have a separate library. What I am looking to have is a shell application, which loads various modules, but all of those modules should be sharing the same common code/classes from a library SWF (or SWFs). Collin

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Module Interface Problems
That sounds like a still existing Flash issue if you try to load a swf that
has a shared library attached to it. Then you will get a loaded callback
before it's actually loaded. So in Flash you can check on the loaded event
if current frame == 0. In that case you can't access any properties and no
code will be executed yet. But you can still write to the object. In our
scenario we have attached a callback event method. So when the swf is really
loaded it will check if the callback exist and then execute it. Which will
tell the loader that it's ready to be initiated. Something similar should be
easy to implement on the module but not with a check for a frame number :-)
. Should be a better solution for this. I don't want to go back to old Flash
hacks hehe.
//as2 example
private function onLibraryLoaded(libraryClip:MovieClip, cb:CallBack):Void {
var me:SharedLibraryLoader = getInstance();
if(libraryClip._currentframe == 0){
libraryClip.onComplete = new CallBack(me, me.onLibraryInitiated,
null, cb);
}else
onLibraryInitiated(libraryClip, cb);
}

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Module Interface Problems
From my experience there is a definite timing issue when loading
modules. The ModuleLoader ready event is fired before the Module is
fully loaded and you have the ability to talk to it through a common
interface (hence the error reporting access to a null value).
I would term this one as a bug that is not yet documented by Adobe.
This could be because some modules take longer than expected to load,
I have no idea, just the observed problem with talking with modules
within the ready. I also attempted to use an interface to talk with
a module when the the progress event had reached 100%, but still no
luck.
A possible workaround would be to fire some event from inside the
loaded module that tells the outside world that it is indeed loaded.
The other option is to set a timer interval and keep checking if the
module is loaded (meaning not reporting NULL in the ready event
handler). Unless someone else as a viable solution? Adobe? Anyone?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Drawing a box over top of an image
Search for addChild in the code. They are in the override of the load()
method.
You cannot move the z-order of the graphics layer. It is always in the
back which is why I added children instead.
Your shortest path may be to use Canvas instead of HBox and have a
second child of the Canvas that overlays the Image.

Well, I've seemed to have solved my problem so I'll post it here in

turns out to have been a relative path issue. The datagrid liked

[flexcoders] Cairngorm event
Good Afternoon,
I know this has been asked before, I see 51 threads on tree events
cairngorm yet none seem to take the last step.
From this thread:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/51927 I
created a tree and have successfully passed the events. I do not
need at this time to add nodes, just that this code seemed like a
good basis to start.
I know from the documents/ProductDetails.mxml that I should be
looking to pass an event such as this:
public function addProductToShoppingCart () : void
{
var event : UpdateShoppingCartEvent =
new UpdateShoppingCartEvent(
UpdateShoppingCartEvent.EVENT_ADD_PRODUCT_TO_SHOPPING_CART );
event.product = selectedItem;
event.quantity = numericStepperComp.value;
CairngormEventDispatcher.getInstance
().dispatchEvent( event );
}
which can then be used like this:
mx:Button
label=Add to Cart
click=addProductToShoppingCart(); /
Yet with the tree component having it's own event
(change=treeChanged(event)) how does one grab the change event to
dispatch a CairngormEventDispatcher?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

[flexcoders] Re: getChildren
If your object is not typed, you can do this:
if (obj.getChildren)
{
obj.getChildren();
}
This will not work if the object is typed (1069 error). Also, if it has
a property by the name of getChildren, I think you'll get a 1006.
Otherwise, it seems to work just fine.

Re: [flexcoders] getChildren
only objects that inherit the Container class have this functions. When i have
a situation like yours, I usually do something like :
if ( obj is Container)
{

}
and it works fine. It is possible not to work if your object
was originally an Object , and you further created your

[flexcoders] upload multiple FileReferences without FileReferenceList?
I have an area of my app where the user can make a new Thing and can upload 2 files against it (1 is an image, the other is a text file). I'd like to have the user interface show a TextInput for the title of the Thing, and then have 2 Browse buttons, one for the image and another for the text file. I'm essentially creating 2 FileReference instances, each with its own FileFilter. In order to upload the info to my (php) server, I'll have to make 3 round trips, each with a hit to the server, database, etc.: 1. Create the Thing in the database and respond with a success. 2. Assuming Success in 1, upload the Image, responding with a success. 3. Assuming Success in 2, upload the text file. I thought of using a FileReferenceList (seemed logical) but the fileList property is read only! I thought I could PUSH my 2 FileReferences onto it, but apparently not. So i either have to have one browse button where the user can pick BOTH the image and the text file (not very intuitive) or else do my round trips above. Does anyone know of another technique to upload two files with one round trip? I thought about trying to extend FileReferenceList and add a setter for fileList, but can't figure out how to find the source files in the flash package? I'll take any input on that as well. Thanks! -- TC

[flexcoders] Nested Repeater Issues
I have a Repeater of CheckBoxes, which may or may not have a sublayer
of CheckBoxes. It should look something like:
[] archive 1
[] archive 2
[] dataSource 1
[] dataSource 2
[] dataSource 3
[] archive 3
By default all CheckBoxes are unselected, and any
sublayer CheckBoxes are not enabled. If you select a CheckBox(archive
2) that has sublayer CheckBoxes (dataSource 1- 3), they are enabled.
If you unselect a CheckBox that has sublayer CheckBoxes, they are
disabled and unselected.
I'm using the Cairngorm framework, so the call results from the
database are returned to my model. This model is used as the
dataProvider for the Repeater.
The issue is that I can not update my model and have the sublayer
Repeater update properly. For example, if there are three sublayer
CheckBoxes (like above), selecting the parent CheckBox (archive 2)
will enable only the first 2 sublayer CheckBoxes (dataSource 1 2).
Then deselecting the parent CheckBox will disable the first 2 sublayer
CheckBoxes, but enable the third (dataSource 3). From this point on
the enabled property for dataSource 12 will be in a opposite state
from dataSource 3.
Below are code snippets:
Library.mxml:
mx:Repeater id=archiveRepeater
dataProvider={__model.archiveElements}
mx:CheckBox id=archive
label={archiveRepeater.currentItem.archiveName}
click=__model.archiveChanged(event)/
mx:Repeater id=dataSourceRepeater
dataProvider=
{archiveRepeater.currentItem.archiveDataRepositories}
mx:CheckBox id=dataSource
label={dataSourceRepeater.currentItem.repositoryName}
enabled={dataSourceRepeater.currentItem.enabled}
selected={dataSourceRepeater.currentItem.selected}
click=__model.dataSourceChanged(event)
/mx:CheckBox
/mx:Repeater
/mx:Repeater
LibraryModel.as:
public function archiveChanged( event:MouseEvent ):void
{
var selectionChoice:Boolean = event.target.selected;
var selectionName:String = event.target.label;
var al:ArchiveLocation =
ArchiveLocation(event.target.getRepeaterItem());
al.selected = selectionChoice;
// Go through any data repositories
// and toggle their enabled property
if (al.archiveDataRepositories != null)
{
var adr:Array = al.archiveDataRepositories;
if (selectionChoice == false)
{
// Deselect and disable all CheckBoxes
for (var i:uint = 0; i adr.length; i++)
{
// Update the model
adr[i].selected = false;
adr[i].enabled = false;
}
else
{
// Enable all CheckBoxes
for (i = 0; i adr.length; i++)
{
adr[i].enabled = true;
}
}
}
}
}
As you can tell, there are ValueObjects that store the enabled and
selected attributes for the dataSource CheckBoxes.
What's even weirder, is that the ValueObjects that make up the
dataProvider for the Repeater are updated correctly (their selected
and enabled properties), but the last CheckBox of any sublayer remains
in a state that is opposite of the other grouped sublayer CheckBoxes.
I've gotten around this by directly updating the display by using:
event.target.document.dataSource[i][j].enabled = false;
But I don't want to rely on this as it will cause issues later on.
I feel that I should be able to update the dataProvider for the
various Repeaters and this should update the display properly. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[flexcoders] Re: Module Interface Problems
I ruled out the timing issue, but your post has some great information
how to handle this. I think I have isolated the specific module
loading issue to one factor. I have a module that loads another
module using a mx:ModuleLoader and I am trying to access the second
ModuleLoader child through the interface. I can't seem get a
reference to the child of the second ModuleLoader, it always reports
null. I have a successfully loaded a module and talked using the
interface, but if move this within the context of another module, I
get the null reference.

That sounds like a still existing Flash issue if you try to load a

and no
code will be executed yet. But you can still write to the object. In our
scenario we have attached a callback event method. So when the swf
is really
loaded it will check if the callback exist and then execute it.
Which will
tell the loader that it's ready to be initiated. Something similar
should be
easy to implement on the module but not with a check for a frame

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Module Interface Problems
From my experience there is a definite timing issue when loading
modules. The ModuleLoader ready event is fired before the Module is
fully loaded and you have the ability to talk to it through a common
interface (hence the error reporting access to a null value).
I would term this one as a bug that is not yet documented by Adobe.
This could be because some modules take longer than expected to load,
I have no idea, just the observed problem with talking with modules
within the ready. I also attempted to use an interface to talk with
a module when the the progress event had reached 100%, but still no
luck.
A possible workaround would be to fire some event from inside the
loaded module that tells the outside world that it is indeed loaded.
The other option is to set a timer interval and keep checking if the
module is loaded (meaning not reporting NULL in the ready event
handler). Unless someone else as a viable solution? Adobe? Anyone?

Subject: [flexcoders] Checkbox in DataGrid cell won't turn invisible!
Can someone help please ? In the following itemRenderer
code for a
dataGridColumn, I'm trying to have the checkbox not show - but it
seems that despite having 'visible=false ' or
even 'includeInLayout= false' it still shows up! In reality, of
course, I have a function defining whether or not I show the
checkbox but to illustrate the problem I'm having I think the
following is as basic an example as I can get:
mx:DataGridColumn headerText= dataField=@ itemSelected
mx:itemRenderer
mx:Component
mx:CheckBox visible=false /
/mx:Component
/mx:itemRenderer
/mx:DataGridColumn
As you can see, checkbox is forced to false always - but this is
totally ignored and the checkbox shows up on all rows!
Does anyone know why this happens - and how I can resolve it ?
Thanks,
Jamie.

[flexcoders] Smooth resize in Flexbook
I want to create a smoother resize effect on a flexbook component. Right now I have multiple transparent pages that are custom components inside of a flexbook component. In each of those pages I am drawing a lot in UpdateDisplayList. When I resize the component it calls UpdateDisplayList multiple times. I'm guessing that it calls it as many times as it can for the effect duration to make it a smooth transition. Well this takes up some processing power and results in a jumpy resize. My question: Is there a way to convert what is seen on the flexbook into a bitmap and do the resize on that. Then when the resize is done call UpdateDisplayList and build everything again and get rid of the bitmap. Would this even be a performance boost? Is it possible? Thanks in advance.

Hi. Is it just me or once in a while when using flex does it, for instance, slow to crawl and take several seconds to perform a cut and paste (or other operation). Or, does it seem to run slowly after your desktop goes to sleep and you re-log in. I experience this stuff often enough where I have to restart flexbuilder 2 or 3 times in a day. However, compared to eclipse, flexbuilder seems to run a lot slower. I am just curious if any other developers have noticed this? Would these improvements be expected in version 3? Thanks, Patrick

mx:Button
label=Add to Cart
click=addProductToShoppingCart(); /
Yet with the tree component having it's own event
(change=treeChanged(event)) how does one grab the change event to
dispatch a CairngormEventDispatcher?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

[flexcoders] Tree and Array
hi, i have an array of records received from an amfphp call and i need to fill a tree control with that data. the array has this format: aArr[0].id aArr[0].description aArr[0].parent aArr[0].order aArr[1].id aArr[1].description aArr[1].parent aArr[1].order ... and so on i didn't find any method of the control that adds node or that sets node parent. Any ideas? Thanks.
[flexcoders] Re: getChildren
Gordon's way does work -- and in fact it can be taken even further by
not only checking that there is a property called getChildren, but
also that that property is a function:
if (obj.hasOwnProperty(getChildren)
typeof obj[getChildren] == function)
{
children = obj.getChildren();
}
However, I think Dordea's answer -- to test obj is Container -- is
actually what you should be using. You are not really trying to check
whether obj has a getChildren() function -- you are trying to check
whether, semantically speaking, it is a container.
To take the old object-oriented programming example, let's say there
was a class called Artist, with a function draw(). If you just tested
for the existence of function draw and then called it, that doesn't
necessarily mean you are asking an Artist to draw -- that just means
you have asked *something* to draw. Maybe Cowboy also has a draw()
function, to draw his gun. Oops!
So back to your example, I think probably what you're really trying to
say is, If the object that was passed in is a Container, then I want
to get its children. So, if (obj is Container) is the way to go.

only objects that inherit the Container class have this functions. When
i have a situation like yours, I usually do something like :
if ( obj is Container)
{
//code here
}
and it works fine. It is possible not to work if your object
was originally an Object , and you further created your
object using a class reference.

Hi,
You could do this;
try {
children = obj.getChildren( );
}
catch (e:Error)
{
trace(e, obj did not have getChildren( ));
}
Peace, Mike

I'm calling something that takes any type as the first argument
public function myFunc(obj:* ):void
I need to tell if obj has a getChildren( ) method before I call
it and
get an error saying Error #1006: getChildren is not a function.

[flexcoders] How can I tell if I have the latest hotfix installed correctly?
I just installed hotfix 1 from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=kb401224 How can I tell if it is installed properly? If I goto Help - About Adobe Flex Builder 2 it just says Version 2.0.1. On my co-workers machine he has Version 2.0.143459 If I goto Help - Software Updates - Manage Configuration I have 'Adobe Flex Builder Core Feature 2.0.155577' and again my co-worker has the same except 143459 even though we have both installed the hotfix.

[flexcoders] Flex Security Best Practices
Hello, Are there any high level flex developers out there who have a response to this article on Ajax security with regards to flex? AJAX Apps Ripe Targets for JavaScript Hijacking http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2110554,00.asp Is Flex vulnerable to such types of attacks? Is there a Flex Security consortium, similar to the PHP security consortium that gives best practices regarding secure code and data requests? Thanks.
Re: [flexcoders] Modules vs RSLs - Are they mutually exclusive?
Alex Harui did a presentation on Modules at 360Flex.org last month. Alex's presentation slides are downloadable here: http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/2007/03/modules.html Following is excerpted from slide 8 (out of 50): *Which is better**:** Modules or RSLs?* -- §Neither. They serve different purposes. §-- RSLs are libraries of supporting classes (and assets) other classes need in order to operate. §RSLs load before the application starts and can actually penalize load time if the RSL is not already in the browser cache. §Thus, no advantage if no other application is sharing that RSL. -- §Modules are libraries of classes (and assets) that you only need after application startup (or choose dynamically at startup). §You cannot refer to the classes in a module, only the interfaces they share with the application. -- §A large application will almost always benefit from using Modules, but may not benefit from using RSLs. Subsequent slides make additional references to RSLs. Also subsequent slides cover topics like: - When do I use Modules? - Where Do I Use Modules? - How Do I Use Modules? hth, g On 4/3/07, Collin Peters [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am wondering if modules have taken over all the functionality of an RSL?

Re: [flexcoders] Modules vs RSLs - Are they mutually exclusive?
Yes, but could an RSL not also be a swf used across multiple modules?

If it is loaded into the shell each module already has access to it. On 04/04/2007, at 11:24 AM, Collin Peters wrote: Yes, but could an RSL not also be a swf used across multiple modules?
