Yes I think my XML is well formed - not sure how to trace the overrides

Interestingly I did find that if I change the TileList display

itemRenderer
to refresh - there's gotta be a better way to force it without using a

H after rewriting the process to use XML the result is the

itemRenderer just will not refresh its display while the underlying

Subject: [flexcoders] Struggle with TileList refresh
I have a tileList that does not update its itemRenderer when the
dataProvider is changed. In one scenario I have a drag and drop to
the
TileList that always updates the dataProvider (XMLList) but will not
reflect the change in the display. I can force a refresh by iterating
over the XMLList like so after a drag/drop event
**workaround***
var n = screensList.length()
for(var i:int=0; i n; i++){
IList(navScreens.dataProvider)[i].displaySeq = i
}
Okay that works, the TileList gets refreshed, although I would expect
there is something I am missing that would do this automatically.
Scenario 2
I created a new state that presents a small editing window to change
the data for items in the same TileList - this works fine for
changing
the data directly in the dataProvider(XMLList). When the state is
returned to baseState the TileList once again does not refresh - If I
click on the item just edited and reopen the editor all the changes
appear in the editor window !. Trying the workaround used in Scenario
1 does not refresh the list.
Is there not a fool-proof method to force TileList to always reflect
a
change in its dataProvider ?

Hi there,
There must be something terribly wrong with the Tree component. Here
is a very basic Flex app sample in which I try to have a Tree
component render some very basic XML data.
The thing is that in this XML, two text nodes have the same value (a
in my exemple). I can't see why this would be any problem. However,
when you fully expand the Tree, you'll notice that you just can't
rollOver and select one of the nodes. You may rollOver and select a
first node, but when trying to roll over the other one, the Tree
highlights the other node, and you cannot select it at all!
It looks like for the Tree, there was only one XML instance for this
text node, and that both itemRenders rendered this same object.
I understand this might have to do with the fact that XML objects are
compared by value, not by reference (unlike as2 XMLNodes if I remember
correctly):
var n1:XML=new XML(item/);
var n2:XML=new XML(item/);
trace(n1==n2);// output:true
Note that this is just one of the numerous bugs I encountered when
dealing with the Tree component and XML. But I chose to post on this
one because it's pretty basic.
Any help or comment would be much appreciated!

public class Sale {
public var id:int;
public var customer:Customer;

Although, when I trigger the RemoteObject to retrieve the ArrayList of
Sales (ICollectionView at client), Flex seems to be treating it as a

Is this conversion (Object - Sale) to be done automatically? What's wrong?

[flexcoders] Datagrid with bound dataProvider not updating.
Hi, I have a datagrid with the dataProvider bound to an array of objects. If I remove one of the items from the array the datagrid doesn't update to reflect this. Debugging and looking at the dataProvider's length it has updated, but that's not what's displayed. I've tried using validateNow() but that doesn't work. If I click on one of the column headers it updates. Currently I'm having to explicitly set the dataProvider in code, but then I lose the binding. Any suggestions? Thanks Bill
[flexcoders] Re: VideoDisplay volume problem
Have you looked at the reply in this thread? Anyway, here's another thread on same: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/75277 If you don't want to subclass, another trick that might help is setting the volume to some random value before setting it to the value you want. (I think if the volume's value isn't changing it will be ignored, but that it has to be set after the video is loaded, so if you keep setting it after loading to what it was set to before (but ignored), it won't change. I'm not sure I understood that sentence, but I hope it helps! :- ) ) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Paul DeCoursey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am having an issue with a VideoDisplay.

Still crashing Internet Explorer 7. Surely this is a pretty major
problem for flash player to be able to do this? Has anyone else seen
this? Is it because I have a debug version of flash player?

Thanks for the reply Tom,
I just have this on a 1 second timer:
public function timerHandler(event:TimerEvent):void {
time = getTimer()
totmem = flash.system.System.totalMemory;
maxmem = Math.max(maxmem, totmem);
}
I understand that garbage collection doesn't run until it's needed
to, but what's causing the memory to go up when there is nothing
happening? I know that the timer is running now, but I observe the
same behaviour without this timer and just watching memory from the
task manager (usually in jumps of 4K or 8K every couple of seconds).
Also while garbage collection usually kicks in a drops the memory
back to the starting memory (more or less), sometimes (usually when
I've left it overnight, but not alway) the memory will continue to
rise to a much higher level (i.e. from 4.5 to 29.5 million bytes)
never to be recovered by garbage collection. This is my main
concern
as in my larger application it has lead to my browser crashing on
occasion!

Re: [flexcoders] RemoteClass
Michael, thanks for your reply.
Actually I have already realized that the applications with strong reference

DataService.mapClass(Sale);
Adobe should take a look at this.

Have you strongly reference the *com.beans.Sale* class in your

just adding an unused variable somewhere of type com.beans.Sale. (there

Hi all,
I have a Java service that returns an ArrayList of type Sale.
At the Flex application I also have the type Sale, the simplifyed
version is this:
package beans
{
[Managed]
[RemoteClass(alias=com.beans.Sale)]
public class Sale {
public var id:int;
public var customer:Customer;
public var product:Product;
}
}
Although, when I trigger the RemoteObject to retrieve the ArrayList of
Sales (ICollectionView at client), Flex seems to be treating it as a
collection of Object, not Sale.
Is this conversion (Object - Sale) to be done automatically? What's
wrong?

I found a trick which, though not perfect, helps quite a lot for the
mxml formatting.
In Eclipse, Go to 'Window | Preferences | General | File Associations'
Make sure that the *.mxml file type is selected, then to the bottom
of Associated editors, click Add
Select Ant Editor and click OK
Then in the file explorer, right-click on the file and say open with
ant editor, then format and it looks much better.

[flexcoders] unable to set origin point for zoom effect
Hello everybody,
I have the following problem: I have a custom title window built
from scratch (extends Canvas); I also have a number of widgets
which extend this window (they actually contain one instance of
this window, and the content is generated and loaded inside it at
runtime) and all widgets are loaded as modules afterwards.
I am able to drag and drop windows on the screen, and with each drag-
drop, I move the module loader so that inside the module, the title
window is always situated at coordinates (0, 0) (except of course
when actually dragging it).
My problem is this: when using a Zoom effect for the hideEffect, it
resizes to the top-left corner. I tried changing the originX and
originY values for the effect, but still nothing.
Here is the actual effect:
mx:Zoom id=myZoom
originX={origX} originY={origY} /
where origX and origY are set when the content of the window and its
width and height are set. I have also added a function for
effectStart and it traces good values for origX and origY (width/2
and height/2 of the window).
Any ideas?

.
The way I solved it was by using a custom label function for each column.
Instead of specifying a dataField, you define the following function inside a
script tag:
function myCustomDataLabelFunction(item:Object, column:DataGridColumn):String
{
return item.product.name;
}
Then you declare the column like this:
mx:DataGridColumn labelFunction=myCustomDataLabelFunction
headerText=Product/
Basically, your label function gets invoked on each item, when the column needs
to know what to display on that row. And you have to return the value you want
to be displayed.
I hope this helped,
Andrea.
RE: [flexcoders] DataGrid and complex types
labelfunction is how I would do it.
But note: custom label function for each column Since you have the entire
item Object and know which column is being processed, a single labelFunction
will work for multiple columns.

The way I solved it was by using a custom label function for each column.
Instead of specifying a dataField, you define the following function inside a
script tag:
function myCustomDataLabelFunction(item:Object, column:DataGridColumn):String
{
return item.product.name;
}
Then you declare the column like this:
mx:DataGridColumn labelFunction=myCustomDataLabelFunction
headerText=Product/
Basically, your label function gets invoked on each item, when the column needs
to know what to display on that row. And you have to return the value you want
to be displayed.
I hope this helped,

Hello G, thanks for your help, i had discussion with my professor and he told me that what i need to do is just the video player like client and it doesnt need to have any videos inside, only the player. Like for example i go to www.youtube.com and i watch the videos(videos included in youtube directory) thru the video player created in Flex. I would appreciate any of your further help with this.

jake247, your code works pretty well, I think I could probably alter

columns may need to be added or removed).
However, I assume you're using a grid without a horizontal scroll
bar, as I seem to have found a bug in the DataGrid when running your
code. When it get's to the point where the width is set on the newCol
for a column that is off to the right and not visible until the
scrollbar is used, it complains about a missing property because it's
internally trying to reference an element in the visibleColumns array
which isn't there. I need to either fix this in the DataGrid source

Re: [flexcoders] Barcode scanning with pda (MC50 for instance)
Sounds like a fun little project... what programming language were you thinking of using for interfacing with the Symbol scanner? I'm guessing you don't care about web security as this sounds like it's a local application so you'll be able to create a socket connection to a program listening on socket service running on the local pc. I believe if you run the swf locally, execute it from file:c/// or http://localhost, you'll be able to connect to a local service without further client side configuration. There are actually a few ways to do this. 1. Binary Sockets 2. XML Sockets 3. A local RTMP service. 4. AMF polling Option 3 is by far the best and for that there a few options for you. 1. Red5 - Java 2. WebORB - .NET 3. FDS Express - Java You could also technically use an AMF solution and polling but you'd definately lose points on the coolness factor. I'd want the bi-di communication that RTMP offers for interfacing with a device. My gut tells me that it would be easier to program against an RTMP service than to use AMF and polling. (You won't have to manage a stack in the service code.)

I must confess I was really surprised when I rotated a text object and re-positioned. And discovered scrollbars appearing because although the rotated objects were placed on the canvas.

At the Flex application I also have the type Sale, the simplifyed

package beans

[RemoteClass(alias=com.beans.Sale)]
public class Sale {
public var id:int;
public var customer:Customer;
public var product:Product;

}
Although, when I trigger the RemoteObject to retrieve the ArrayList of
Sales (ICollectionView at client), Flex seems to be treating it as a
collection of Object, not Sale.
Is this conversion (Object - Sale) to be done automatically? What's
wrong?

Re: [flexcoders] Retrieving saved DataGrid columns array from local SharedObject.
Hmmm ... I just tried your scenario by changing the width of a column that you
have to get to using the horizontal scroll bar (our grid is about 25 columns).
I then saved the grid settings (we trigger it via a right click and a context
menu selection), close the app, and restart it. The new width on the column is
displayed correctly.
I'll have one of our sales reps try in in the production environment and report
back.

private function selectClient() : void{

This works ok but since i may have to repeat this code many times in

The way I solved it was by using a custom label function for each column.
Instead of specifying a dataField, you define the following function inside a
script tag:
function myCustomDataLabelFunction(item:Object, column:DataGridColumn):String
{
return item.product.name http://item.product.name ;
}
Then you declare the column like this:
mx:DataGridColumn labelFunction=myCustomDataLabelFunction
headerText=Product/
Basically, your label function gets invoked on each item, when the column needs
to know what to display on that row. And you have to return the value you want
to be displayed.
I hope this helped,
Andrea.

Right on all counts Jason. Our layout system isn't really written to handle rotation in a deeply integrated manner.

As Alex points out, doing it incorrectly can have a non-trivial performance impact, so we want to make sure it gets done right. Ely.

Here's an example: http://www.machine501.com/2007/05/29/syntax-highlight-as3/ Here are some of the features: * support for multiple languages. comes with an as3 language grammar but you can add your own. follows the language grammar format used by textmate. * asynchronous, so it won't tie up your ui while it parses a big document * styling TextFields: quick-and-dirty styler for as3. * selectors: tags segments of the document with the names of the language grammar rule that matched it so that you can use it for things like providing context sensitive help, etc. * bsd license. /r http://www.searchcoders.com/flex/ http://www.laflex.org/

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Converting the output of ObjectUtil.copy() to custom type
You can use this technique for typed objects too, you just need to
ensure that you have registered a remote alias for the class. This is
because ByteArray serialization is really making use of a player feature
that is intended for sending AS3 data to remote agents.
import com.something.FooObject;
//...
private static var reg:Boolean =
flash.net.registerClassAlias(com.whatever.FooObject,
com.something.FooObject);
See:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/langref/flash/net/package.html#register
ClassAlias()
Or, if you're using MXMLC or Flex Builder to compile a Flex application
you can make use of the special class-level metadata by declaring
[RemoteClass(alias=com.whatever.FooObject)] above your class
definition.

[flexcoders] Re: [cairngorm-devel] Flex HotFix 2 and Cairngorm 2.2
It's really not that big of a deal. I mean extracting a zip is not that hard I was just saying in an ideal situation using the updater would be nice. I suppose that if I had to choose between waiting longer for hotfixes or having to manual patch I most defiantly choose manual patching! :) Also any ETA on the hotfix friendly Cairngorm?
[flexcoders] Re: Client IP Address
Adam,
Thanks for the suggestion. You are exactly right about the
anonymous client login. However, we don't just have anonymous
users. Here is the goal: We have two types of clients: one from a
unique touch-screen panel mounted on the wall that stays in a fixed
location. Since there is no keyboard available, the server would
automatically let the browser from the touch-screen host log in.
The other type of client is any regular browser that come form any
where. The server will require this type of user to enter user name
and password. So far, we can only think of using the IP to
identilfy the touch-screen host from the rest. Since the client is
written in FLASH and can't get the client IP to the server, we
thought about let the backend auto detect the client IP and let the
user login without a password. But our backend uses axis/tomcat. Do
you know a way that the axis web service can get the client IP?
I am so stuck! Can't believe a simple thing like that can be so
hard. Any help is very appreciated!

Are you trying to use ip address to identify an anonymous client
session without having the user login? The way I did this was to
create a random UUID and pass that through querystring with my calls
to the server. I would then create a database session based on this
UUID. Something like this
import mx.utils.UIDUtil;
public var gateway:RemotingConnection;
public function init():void
{
var uid:String = UIDUtil.createUID();
var url:String = http://myurl.com/gateway.php?uid=+uid;
gateway = new RemotingConnection( url );
}
Hope that helps. If not, have a great Easter!

[flexcoders] FileSize: modules/rsl
Good Morning, I am trying to move from the newbie class to a moderately capable Flex Programmer. I would like to make some income as I do this. I have decided to use the Flex Explorer (with proper credits of course) structure as a learning platform. For my purposes Flex Explorer is too large of a file size. I have decided to create modules of each view. I have taken each category of view, buttons/navigators/rules ect and put into their own folder. I have compiled, debugged and have it running. I have run an externalLink report which to no surprise shows a massive amount of classes. I get an error when trying to compile the module: it cannot find the *.as file to include though this file is found before the external link report is run (after the separation of category views). Is there something about including *.as files with regards to -load- externs=report.xml? Is there better documentation or an example of what I am trying to do out there? I ran into this: http://blogs.adobe.com/rgonzalez/2006/06/modular_applications_part_2. html though for the next couple weeks it is above my pay scale. Should I be trying to use RSL's instead: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/rsl_print.html? Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Best way to convert PNG to for usable in Flex
We are working on a project where we need to be able to work with large size PNG files using transparency. What is the best way to convert these transparent PNG files so that they can be properly displayed and worked with in Flash? Why not use Bridge from CS3? In Bridge: Create/open the folder containing all your large PNGs. Tools - Fireworks - Batch process. This will open up Fireworks and its batch window. Add a Scale operator and below it an export operator, Select the Scale operator and set its Scale to Size and adjust as needed. Select the Export operator and set it to Custom, click the edit button and set your exporter to png 32 and ok. Clicking next will bring you to the save options allowing you to target output or overwrite. You can also save out this script and use it for any future converts you wish to match.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Client IP Address
I had a similar setup. What I did was added an optional onscreen
keyboard on the login page. and if you use a certain login id then it
sets a localSharedObject that is a authentication key that associates
the client as a kiosk from that point on. Then when the app is loaded
it checks for the LSO and if it exists and is valid it is logged in
automatically.
Hope that helps.

[flexcoders] Re: Showing item roll over color in a data grid manually
Hi there,
Thanks a lot for your code snippet and thanks for your time!
However, I wanted to have a itemRollOver color on the data grid.
Setting of selectedIndex on data grid sets the selectionColor and
may change certain other things as selectedIndex is a bindable
property.
Is there any other way, probably short of painting the row with
a itemRollOver color?

[flexcoders] Weird behavior with URLStream
Guys, We're seeing something weird. We're streaming a lot of data from server. This data comes in three chunks, each of size ~ 4 M. We fire all the three requests simultaneously with three different URLStreams. However, it seems like Flash Player only loads at max 2 requests at a given point of time. We get chunk 1, then when its ~ 75% over, chunk 2 starts and when chunk 2 is ~ 75% over (chunk 1 has already finished), chunk 3 starts. What's more, if we open a new browser simultaneously, none of the requests get fired from there as if they are waiting for other streams to finish first! This might seem like that the issue could be that the read cache of sokcet of the underlying OS gets choked and hence the delay, but we strip this cache of the data as soon as it arrives there. Has any one seen this behavior before? Regards, Sandeep

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Superimposing chart.
If you're talking about series data that is using the same axis values, you can just add multiple AreaSeries and LineSeries elements to a single CartesianChart instance. If the LineSeries uses a different scale, just add it to the secondVerticalAxis instance using the secondDataProvider as it's value set. Just make sure that you create your AreaSeries before the LineSeries and the Line should overlay the Area instances... Unless there's something here I'm missing...

I've tried the following: create New Project - use Flex Data Services/compile app locally Root Folder: C:\fds-tomcat\webapps\ROOT Root URL: http://localhost:8600/ROOT.

I've verified that fds.swc is indeed in the C:\fds-tomcat\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\flex\libs folder. I don't know what the other messages mean or what to do. I then stubbornly unzipped one of the sample apps into the FlexBuilder project folder (which I named FDS TestDrive Samples) and tried to run it anyway to see if I could get more info.

Re: {Disarmed} RE: {Disarmed} RE: [flexcoders] Flickr - Issue with LoaderContext
All true. Seeing that there really is no alternative other than using a
proxy server, I implemented a solution that seems to be working for this
specific application.
I ended up using at32.com ReverseProxy (http://www.at32.com), which is
for Windows. As long as the reverse proxy is bound to the IP address
that the Flex application is running on not even a crossdomain.xml is
needed.
Hope this helps someone else.

Roughly speaking:
AppDom/SecDom are for ActionScript code/classes.
crossdomain.xml allows you to import code/classes into the same
SecDom/AppDom so you can use the classes, otherwise you end up in a
separate sandbox
All instances of things in a separate sandbox are off-limits, and
cannot access you either.
crossdomain.xml also allows you to access the display area of
displayobjects and image data because it effectively imports that
thing into your sandbox
AllowDomain permits code in another sandbox to touch things in your
sandbox
There is a security white paper on adobe.com that tries to explain
all of this. The idea is that you cannot use Flash as a screenscraper
of other flash content or image data w/o permission of the server
owner for both spoofing and server load reasons. And, of course, you
don't want to accidentally load bad code and have it steal stuff from you.
Flickr used to have crossdomain.xml files in the correct places, but
pulled them for some reason. I think if you google around you'll find
out why. So suddenly, they've made flash apps harder and proxy
servers are needed.

I had this working for most part, retrieving and displaying the images
from Flickr, but BitmapData.draw was always throwing a security
sandbox violation when I needed to hide the canvas the Flickr images
were displayed in. Karl Johnson has written more about it here:
http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/karljohnson?entry=working_around_security_sandbox_errors
http://www.cynergysystems.com/blogs/page/karljohnson?entry=working_around_security_sandbox_errors
The problem is that the crossdomain.xml is at
http://api.flickr.com/crossdomain.xml
http://api.flickr.com/crossdomain.xml, but the actual images are
pulled from http://farm1.static.flickr.com/
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/... So running the app, I am seeing
an error:
Failed to load policy file from
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/crossdomain.xml
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/crossdomain.xml
We're obviously not loading the crossdomain.xml from the right place,
as there is no crossdomain.xml at that location.
Next, I looked closer at James Ward's example of using Ely's
DisplayShelf component to retrieve images from Flickr:
http://www.jamesward.org/wordpress/2006/11/06/flex-widgets-from-widgetslive/
http://www.jamesward.org/wordpress/2006/11/06/flex-widgets-from-widgetslive/
The AppDom and SecDom approach is taken from Ely's DisplayShelf
component, where he uses it with the SWFLoader. May not be needed for
images, I simply just left it in there.
I've taken a second look at Jame's write-up and he's posted a
follow-up in the comment section on April 20, 2007 where he's showing
a proxy setup to get around the issues at hand. His example wouldn't
work either until the proxy setup was in place.
This may be what I have to do as well. It's just amazing to me that
there is no unified approach to this. I agree with you, either you
have access permission to the images, or you don't.

I'm not clear that AppDom and SecDom affect loading images (JPG, GIF,

flickr.com or you don't.
You can almost always load it, you just can't always access its pixels.

I'm running into security sandbox violation issues trying to load images
from a Flickr account.
Since the Image component derives from SWFLoader I am setting the
LoaderContext before the image source is assigned. The image component
is used inside my custom component, which in turn is used as an
itemRenderer in a TileList.
Here is the image component code fragment:
mx:Image id=imgThumbnail
source={data.url}
initialize=imageInit()
width=75 height=75/
Here is my imageInit() method:
private function imageInit():void {
loaderContext = new LoaderContext();
RE: [flexcoders] Re: Showing item roll over color in a data grid manually
I would consider customizing the renderers to show a different backgroundColor,
not necessarily the highlightColor. There's an example of a lightweight
background renderer on my blog (blogs.adobe.com/aharui) which you would tie
into some logic as to whether that item is the current chart item

Hi there,
Thanks a lot for your code snippet and thanks for your time!
However, I wanted to have a itemRollOver color on the data grid.
Setting of selectedIndex on data grid sets the selectionColor and
may change certain other things as selectedIndex is a bindable
property.
Is there any other way, probably short of painting the row with
a itemRollOver color?

Guys,
We are having a data grid and a pie chart which show the same
data.
What we want is when user does a mouse over (or item roll
over)
over a wedge in pie chart, then the corresponding row in data
grid
should also show a itemRollOver color and vice versa.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

[flexcoders] examples of advanced datagrid functions (paging/filters)
Hi, does anybody know where i can find a good example of a datagrid that does recordset paging (where each page makes a request to the server to lazy load the data). i'm also looking for a nifty way of handling search filters as well. i'm googling but coming up blank. thanks in advance. d.

[flexcoders] Defining a dynamic UI
Is it possible to pre-define a set of MXML components but not create them or add them to a Container in the application until a later time. In other words, I want to define some components, complete with properties, events, etc. that will not be part of my UI until I dynamically add them as the application runs. I will decide whether or not to add them based on runtime criteria. I know that I can use states to add and remove components. If I use states, is there a way to define a component only once in MXML and then add it in 3-4 different states? I do not wish to define my component over and over inside of AddChild tags, and my components are not really specialized enough to warrant their own MXML files since there are many of them and the only real differences are their properties, events, etc. I've also thought that I could manually define my components in AS and keep them in memory until needed, but would rather define them in MXML if possible. I would also like to create the components just-in'time instead of creating them up front when they may never be needed. Anyway, thanks for any thoughts on this topic!
