[flexcoders] data provider doubt
Hi All,
In my app am using datagrid with three columns. to fill the data in to
datagrid, am
getting the data using remote object and stored data into a Arraycollection
in mxml.
when am displaying the data into a grid it was displaying(repeating same
data) in all the three
columns.
how to display the data within the respective fields.
I have used column1.dataField={lis.getItemIndex(1).toString()} like this
to
display the content of field in first column but it was not displaying
anything.
can anyone help me how to achieve this.

--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Gordon Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Are you asking Why doesn't Sprite have a 'children' Array rather than a numChildren property and a getChildAt() method?. The answer to that is that AS3 lacks strongly typed Arrays, and lacks a way to know when you've modified an Array. For example, if you pushed a Sprite onto the Array, the Player wouldn't know to add it to the display list. Gordon Smith Adobe Flex SDK Team Oh, OK. That is a bit annoying though. So how come you don't sub class Array and add an 'on added' event that tells the Player when something is added? Who cares if Array isn't strongly typed? So long as the Player finds something that looks and smells like a DisplayObject, wouldn't that be enough? Cheers, monk.e.boy

Re: [flexcoders] data provider doubt
Lets say your RPC is returning ArrayCollection containing objects and each
object has got properties prop1, prop2 and prop3
your code should be similar to the below one
dataGrid.dataProvider = arrayCollection;
dataColumn1.dataField = prop1;
dataColumn2.dataField = prop2;

then the dataField should be set to the name of the property like
dataField = prop1;

[flexcoders] Quirky curly brace binding when using explicit cast
When trying to create a form with a combo box and a text input I
happened upon what would appear to me to be a quirk with how explicit
casts affect {} binding. Essentially what I was trying to do was have
a single field on a model class be exposed by both a combo box and a
text input. The idea was that the user could pick one of the
predefined options in the combo box, or an 'other' entry and then
supply their own freeform value in the text box. The twist for this
form is that it extends a 'super-class' form that accepts a
'super-class' model object. What this means for the form is that it
needs to explicitly cast the model object for all the bindings.
The end result was I found that this syntax did not work...
mx:TextInput id=textIn text={(item as MyItem).name} /
But this syntax does work...
mx:TextInput id=textIn text={MyItem(item).name} /
Has anyone else come across this, or know why this might occur?
Full app example below...
example.mxml
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute preinitialize=preinit()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import AbstractItem;
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import MyItem;
[Bindable]
//Some dummy data for example use.
private var comboData:ArrayCollection =
new ArrayCollection([1, 2, 3]);
[Bindable]
private var item:AbstractItem;
private function preinit():void {
item = new MyItem();
(item as MyItem).name = 2;
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Panel width=500 height=300 title=Explicit Cast Binding
Example
mx:HBox paddingTop=5 paddingLeft=5
!--
Any change to the combo box should update the
'data' field on
'item' and then be reflected in the
text box via the binding.
--
mx:ComboBox id=combo
dataProvider={comboData}
change=(item as MyItem).name =
combo.selectedItem as String /
!--
Text field should always display the 'data'
field of the
'item' instance.
Use this to get it to work.

[flexcoders] AIR v1 - Initial blank screen
I've just recompiled my AIR applications with Flex 3 v1.0 production. When my application runs, my AIR app window appears with a blank blue-grey background. When I resize the window, the components that are supposed to be showing show up instantly. It appears that it was already rendered and just waiting to be displayed. It doesn't appear to be a creation policy thing. It did not behave this way in Flex 3 b3. I have two AIR applications that are behaving this way in the new version.

[flexcoders] Re: Passing data from grid row to form components problem
Kapil,
You have to do the work yourself.
In the datagrid use itemClick=rowSelected(event)
Then in ActionScript
private function rowSelected(evt:ListEvent):void {
rowData = dgDataProvider(evt.rowIndex);
Now rowData contains the data from the datagrid on the row selected by
the user, you can now pass this data to the Form and use databinding
to display the data.
That is a simple approach, but there will be a lot more code to
implement it.

I'm working on a project where I need to use Flex 2 to load either a sequence of .swf files from an xml parser after 30 seconds or to load an image then a .swf file from an sml parser after 30 seconds. I've been searching for a way to do this. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, U.T.
[flexcoders] Reloading data into repeater child on runtime
Hi, How do I dynamically add data to a repeater component if I update the array in the data provider on runtime? Do I have to reload the entire repeater? I would like to do this through a call function but can't fathom how. Thanks!

[flexcoders] Re: Passing data from grid row to form components problem
A slight mistake in my reply, the line should have been:
rowData = dgDataProvider[evt.rowIndex];
But this line is relevant for an ArrayCollection. You will need
different syntax to access data in XML, depending on how deep it is
nested.

Kapil,
You have to do the work yourself.
In the datagrid use itemClick=rowSelected(event)
Then in ActionScript
private function rowSelected(evt:ListEvent):void {
rowData = dgDataProvider(evt.rowIndex);
Now rowData contains the data from the datagrid on the row selected by
the user, you can now pass this data to the Form and use databinding
to display the data.
That is a simple approach, but there will be a lot more code to
implement it.

RE: [flexcoders] Loading an image file and then a swf file in sequence
All you need to do is read up on how to do three things: 1) Load and use XML data 2) Load a .swf file, add it to the display list 3) Use the Timer class If you search those three topics in the Flex help, you should have enough info to accomplish this.

[flexcoders] images dissappearing on zoom
Hi All I am porting a flash 8/avm1 app to flex/avm2. The app loads images and allows the user to zoom in on them. In the flex/avm2 app the image dissappears if you zoom in a long way. This did not happen the the flash 8/avm1 version. I have tried zooming using scaleX and scaleY, width and height, and matrix, but the result is the same in all cases. The problem goes away if I wrap the image in a swf before it is loaded in the app. Loading it into a swf in the already in the app does not solve the problem. I would prefer not to wrap the image in a swf before I load it. Has anyone seen this problem before, or know of a solution? Thanks

[flexcoders] DateTimeAxis - how to get discrete days
Hi, I've got an app with a column chart (7 columns possible) that is using the DateTimeAxis. The data coming down (milliseconds) contains hour, min, etc value. Meaning that it comes down as Feb 5 with 20 hours, 15 mins, etc. When the data is displayed on the chart, it appears to be displayed proportionally, so that it looks like it is on Feb 6th. If the data comes down with a very low hour, then it looks OK. On the server side, I can remove all hours etc, so that the Date comes down as Feb 5, 0hours, etc and the data is centered nicely on the chart. However, is there a way to set up the DateTimeAxis to force it to center the columns on the date - without having to modify the data? I've tried combinations of dataUnits, dataInterval and labelUnits, but nothing is working out for me. Any ideas on how to set Flex to do this? I'm using version 2.01 Thanks, John

The flash player has a maximum value for placement (x/y coordinates) of DisplayObjects of +/-8191.

[flexcoders] Load HTML from URL into Flex Component (via iframe)
I've got a Flex site with several pages that load HTML content from an
older HTML version of the site into an iframe that I then place over the
Flash movie so it looks like the content has been embedded into the Flex
UI even though it's still being loaded from the old HTML site.
I've got the following Javascript function to load the HTML content into
the iframe:
function loadIFrame(url){
document.getElementById(myFrame).innerHTML = iframe id='myIFrame'
src=' + url + ' frameborder='0'/iframe;
Alert.show(url);
}
I added the Alert.show for testing so I'd get a Javascript alert box
if/when this Javascript function fires.
Inside my Flex app, I'm using the following code to refresh the iframe
based on a URL:
ExternalInterface.call(loadIFrame, source);
I'm using the show event of a VBox component to make the
ExternalInterface.call to the Javascript function. I've verified via
trace that the show event is firing and the ExternalInterface.call()
function is executing, but the iframe never loads the URL nor does the
Javascript Alert.show() function execute.
It seems to work some of the time, but not consistently and not in any
pattern I can distinguish. Am I missing something here? Is there a
different/better approach for loading HTML content via an HTTP GET into
a Flex UI? If not, how can I get this to work properly/consistently?
Cheers!
[flexcoders] referencing a private function

http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/11/29/opening-nodes-in-a-flex-tree-con trol-using-the-expanditem-method/ Is there anyway to get the tree view INTO the combo box? I really like the idea of having a hierarchical menu that looks exactly like the tree in this example. I just want it to drop down and be a menu like the combo box. I detest the windows file manager interface (because of its inefficient use of screen real-estate) and I dont like cascading menu's because I get really annoyed having to slow down and use my mouse in slow motion just so I can get to the sub-menu I want. I think the drop down tree hiearchy within a combobox solves both of these problems. 1). Its a great use of screen real-estate --- if you are not using it it takes up practically no room and 2) the hierarchy is persistent and I dont have to be a jedi master with my mouseand I dont have to move %80 down and to the right to get the menu I want. So would it be possible to do a tree in a combo box? Or, if thats impossible, I guess I can just put the tree on a application bar and use it like a menu? brad
RE: [flexcoders] How to get all itemrenderer instances of a tree?
Renderers are virtual Only as many instances exist as you can see on screen. They are recycled and used to display other dataprovider items as you scroll or expand/contract. That's why there is no such method. You can get to the on-screen renderers via indexToItemRenderer(), but you'll be better off working from within the renderers do handle the mouse.

[flexcoders] Flex and PHP Issue. Please help!!!
In my flex application i have a form with some text fields. When I submit
the form an HTTPService.send() methid is called.
mx:HTTPService id=PostUser method=GET
url=http://localhost/Flex/Pastarino/PostUsers.php; useProxy=false
showBusyCursor=true
resultFormat=text result=PostNewUserResponse(event);
/mx:HTTPService
the function is:
public function PostNewUserResponse(event:ResultEvent):void {
PostStatusL.text = String(event.result); // response from
the php to the label in FLEX
}
when the Submit Button Is pressed it calls the following function
public function PostNewUser():void {
var PostArray:Array= new Array();
PostArray = [{
UserName: PostUserNameTF.text,
Password: PostPasswordTF.text,
name: PostNameTF.text,
Position: PostPositionTF.text,
ManageUsers: PostManageUsersCB.selected,
CreateOrders: PostCreateOrdersCB.selected,
CreateDishes: PostCreateDishesCB.selected
}];
var DataToSend:Object = new Object();
var DataString:String = JSON.encode(PostArray);
DataString = escape(DataString);
DataToSend.PostUsers = true;
DataToSend.DataSent = DataString;
PostUser.send(DataToSend);
}
At this point the php code would be:
if(isset($_GET['PostUsers'])) {
$jsonString = urldecode($_GET['DataSent']);
$jsonString = str_replace(\\, , $jsonString);
$data = json_decode($jsonString, true);
$connection = mysql_connect($URL, $USERNAME, $PASSWORD);
mysql_select_db($DATABASE) or die('Cannot connect to database. Please Try
Again...');
$query = INSERT INTO Users (name) VALUES ($data['name']); // only the
name field for now...
$result = mysql_query($query, $connection);
But it is not working. I realized that $data['name'] is not getting the name
field from flex.
I also tried adding the values manually in php as in
$query = INSERT INTO Users (name) VALUES ('The Name is here');
and it WORKED!!. So i think the problem is that $data['name'] is not really
retrieving the data from the array decoded by json_decode() (this is really
frustrating me!!)
How should It be?
thanks for the help

[flexcoders] List ItemRenderer and variableRowHeight
I have a List component with a custom item renderer. The List is set
to variableRowHeight=true.
In the renderer is a regular TextArea component that I want to grow in
size vertically for the longer data strings.
My problem is I don't quite understand how to automate the process of
sizing the TextArea and then the renderer height from the
TextArea.textHeight property.
I can successfully do it manually, attaching a click event to the
TextArea, that calls the following function in the renderer:
private function updateHeight(ev:MouseEvent):void {
ev.target.height = ev.target.textHeight + 5;
this.height = ev.target.y + ev.target.height + 25;
}
This perfectly sizes each item when I click on them.
The problem is I can't get it to function properly when I try to size
them from an event representing the item's creation. I have tried
sizing on the following events:
1) renderer creationComplete and added events
2) in the data setter override function for the renderer
No matter what I try to do, automated sizing produces incorrect
results. I am sure I just don't understand - not the first time!!!
Thanks for any help!!!

RE: [flexcoders] List ItemRenderer and variableRowHeight
Unless you want the TextArea's scrollbars, you should just set
wordWrap=true and the default renderer will take care of it. If you
want to customize the renderer, copy the code and modify it. TextArea
is a bit heavy for renderers especially if you don't need the
scrollbars, and the default renderer code will show you how to figure
out the appropriate measuredHeight.

TextArea.textHeight property.
I can successfully do it manually, attaching a click event to the
TextArea, that calls the following function in the renderer:
private function updateHeight(ev:MouseEvent):void {
ev.target.height = ev.target.textHeight + 5;
this.height = ev.target.y + ev.target.height + 25;
}
This perfectly sizes each item when I click on them.
The problem is I can't get it to function properly when I try to size
them from an event representing the item's creation. I have tried
sizing on the following events:
1) renderer creationComplete and added events
2) in the data setter override function for the renderer
No matter what I try to do, automated sizing produces incorrect
results. I am sure I just don't understand - not the first time!!!
Thanks for any help!!!

RE: [flexcoders] referencing a private function
To add to what Alex has said... In AS3, access specifiers such as
'protected' and 'private' aren't just compile-time concepts, they're
also runtime concepts that are rigorously enforced by the ActionScript
Virtual Machine. If your class makes something private, it is really
inaccessible except by your class. AS3 takes this kind of security issue
as seriously as Java does.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: referencing a private function
Event.item in an itemClick is not the MenuBar, so I don't see how it can
be a function in the same file.
Even if it is, there is no guarantee that it is the same object, so you
still can't call it if it is private.

If I were you, I would just print_r or vardump the contents of

[flexcoders] Re: referencing a private function
Gordon - the application of such capability is arguable that is
true... but the capability to pass references is absolute. One could
for instance... create a custom event handler that passes a reference
to the private/internal function to event subscribers. If this were
truly and absolute - composition, introspection and reflection would
be forfeit.
So - if I can add a quickie. If your class makes something private, it
will only be accessible within your class unless you provide a
reference passing mechanism (e.g. a setter/getter).

[flexcoders] Re: Failure to access a WSDL file from Flex's WebService class over HTTPS on IE
Hi All,
I would like to thank all who tried to help, i was finally able to
solve the problem by:
1. Install all 3 FlexBuilder hotfixes.
2. Add the following http headers:
header(Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0);
header('Pragma: private');
In two places:
a. In a php script which returns the WSDL file (see code below).
b. In the service method which handles the WS calls, i was using PHP
as server side language and the headers should be set right before we
return the result object (inside the class which handles the WS
method) and not in the service PHP script which creates the PHP
SoapServer object.

Hi Eyal,
My direct experience is limited to working with POSTs from IE over
HTTPS. POSTs are not idempotent and are not cacheable according to the
HTTP spec.
See section 9.5: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html
snip
Responses to this method are not cacheable, unless the response
includes appropriate Cache-Control or Expires header fields.
/snip
So one workaround for the IE issue is to always issue POSTs from the
player and not set any cache-related response headers at all. Note
that the player converts POSTs with an empty body to GETs
automatically (which is probably due to bugs in the underlying ActiveX
or Netscape Plugin APIs).
For GETs, I've seen various posts online by people who claim to have
found header combinations to get IE HTTPS with no caching working but
I can't verify any of these for you based on my personal experience.
Good luck,

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Failure to access a WSDL file from Flex's
WebService class over HTTPS on IE
Hi,
I am not sure i understood your reply, as i wrote, I also tried
replacing the WSDL file with the following php script that handles the
cache problem (after reading a post on the subject)
?php
$browser= (ereg('MSIE ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})', $_SERVER['USER_AGENT'])) ?
IE : FF;
ob_end_clean();
if ($browser == IE)
{
header(Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0);
header('Pragma: private');
}
else
{
header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1
header(Pragma: no-cache);
header(Expires: . gmdate(D, d M Y H:i:s) . GMT);
}
readfile(dirname(__FILE__) . '/MyService.wsdl');
?
This didn't solve the problem... is this what you suggested?
Thanks,
Eyal

If you're not routing your web service invocations through the LCDS
or BlazeDS proxy service, you'll need to tweak your application server
to tweak the response headers related to caching if the user agent
making the request is IE and the request arrives over HTTPS.
Various folks have tried different header settings and combinations
to work around this. Google for their recommendations.

Subject: [flexcoders] Failure to access a WSDL file from Flex's
WebService class over HTTPS on IE
Hello,
I have a problem to access a WSDL file from Flex's WebService class
over HTTPS on IE.
I have tried using Flex Builder 2 / 3 but the problem is the same.
The web-server I am using is appWeb.
Note that the same code works ok when I run it over HTTP (both IE and
FF), and also over HTTPS but only from FireFox.
The only problem is running it from IE over HTTPS.
Analyzing the tcpdump I have compared the attempt to fetch the SWDL
file from the flex code to a similar request done from the IE
web-browser by typing the WSDL address in the URL field (This works ok
and the browser displays the WSDL file). It seems that after the
initial handshake the TCP connection is closed and the flex code
doesn't open a new connection (like the IE does in the direct
attempt).
I am using the following lines of code in Flex:
var webService:WebService = new WebService();
webService.showBusyCursor = true;
webService.useProxy = false;
webService.wsdl = https://IP_ADDRESS/MyService.wsdl;
webService.endpointURI =
https://IP_ADDRESS/SoapServer.php?serviceName=MyService;
webService.addEventListener(LoadEvent.LOAD, handleLoad);
webService.useProxy = false;
I have received the following error:
[SWF] C:\f2rca\_workspace\List\bin\List-debug.swf - 1,187,356 bytes

[flexcoders] Drag Move Drop help needed with NESTED list items...
hi everyone, this is making me contemplating switching fields to carpentry. here's the gist of it: I'm trying to build a 'libray' of sorts that have folders of items... basically the idea is to have folders that can have subfolders too. here's the xml http://distance.jhsph.edu/bau/flex/dragDrop/data/data.xml to compound complexity; I'm trying to make the 'drag and drop' reordering of items based on a button press (will skin everything later.) so that when the user mouses down the button it broadcasts an event making all the lists drag/drop able. something is going wonky... its not moving the items, but rather, copying them. if anyone has insight to this, it'd be much appreciated here's the url: I have the file source enabled: http://distance.jhsph.edu/bau/flex/dragDrop/index.html I'm losing hair!

Is there anyway to get the tree view INTO the combo box?
I really like the idea of having a hierarchical menu that looks exactly
like the tree in this example. I just want it to drop down and be a
menu like the combo box. I detest the windows file manager interface
(because of its inefficient use of screen real-estate) and I dont like
cascading menu's because I get really annoyed having to slow down and
use my mouse in slow motion just so I can get to the sub-menu I want.
I think the drop down tree hiearchy within a combobox solves both of
these problems. 1). Its a great use of screen real-estate --- if you
are not using it it takes up practically no room and 2) the hierarchy is
persistent and I dont have to be a jedi master with my mouseand I
dont have to move %80 down and to the right to get the menu I want.
So would it be possible to do a tree in a combo box? Or, if thats
impossible, I guess I can just put the tree on a application bar and use
it like a menu?

RE: [flexcoders] Be the tree, Bob
You may also want to consider the WindowShade component from FlexLib,
instead of the ComboBox:
http://flexlib.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/examples/WindowShade/WindowShade_Sample.swf
I found the kmossman example a little confusing to navigate, since
clicking on some things selected them (and collapsed the combobox), and
clicking others expanded the tree. I understand the intent of the
navigation, but it feels a little off. The windowshade may be a slicker
way to accomplish the same requirements you stated originally.

[flexcoders] testability in flex w/cairngorm
Hello there, Looking to see how smooth will it be to separate cairngorm apart and for example swap the User Interface with a bunch of set commands. i.e I want to unit test, and pretend as if I'm playing a game made in Flex with visual controls. But, instead of clicking I'm just submitting commands from a console. This would allow rapid unit testing. In order to do this, the framework or architecture has to clearly separate the UI and game engine. Let me know what you think, I'm digging in Cairngorm for this as I type :) If you have any examples, I'd understand it from a Java and/or regular Flash viewpoint. Moving in to Flex, it definitely seems like a choice of Cairngorm or my own custom MVC which allows this UI swapping will be necessary. Testability is #1! Regards, RMachine
[flexcoders] How to make Button show when it's outside the parent's boundaries?
I have a Canvas with one Combobox and one Button within. I'm trying to visually append the button below the dropdown so the button looks like it's part of the dropdown. On the DropdownEvent.OPEN event, the button is moved to be below that dropdown. On the DropdownEvent.CLOSE event, the button's visibility is set to false. My code mostly works. My problem is when the dropdown extends past the parent canvas's boundaries (I don't mean the application window's boundaries). The dropdown appears fine but my button doesn't appear at all. I suspect it has something to do with z-order. The dropdown displays fine when it extends past parent's boundaries. How do I do this for the button also? Thanks.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: referencing a private function
You're quite right... sorry I forgot this exception. If a class C
decides to pass a reference-to-one-of-its-private-methods to code
outside C, then any code that gets that reference can call the private
method. The point is that if you're the author of C, then you have the
prerogative to publicize something that you declare private. What the
AVM enforces is that others can't access your private stuff without your
permission.

Gordon - the application of such capability is arguable that is
true... but the capability to pass references is absolute. One could
for instance... create a custom event handler that passes a reference
to the private/internal function to event subscribers. If this were
truly and absolute - composition, introspection and reflection would
be forfeit.
So - if I can add a quickie. If your class makes something private, it
will only be accessible within your class unless you provide a
reference passing mechanism (e.g. a setter/getter).

Now this works well as long as the specified function is public.

I found the problem. If you declare minWidth and minHeight in your WindowedApplication tag, and the values are equal or greater than the initialWindow height and width values in your descriptor file, the initial application window appears empty until you resize. SoDONT DO THAT! Tom

[flexcoders] problem running in flex 3 what does run in flex 201
Hello, I have an app that works when compiled with flex 201. It is a non-trivial setup. I have a loader app that uses framework.swc and flex.swc as RSLs. The loader app then manually loads any custom RSLs we have (we have one at the moment) the style swf, and finally the app swf. Note that the custom RSLs and the app swf are all linked against framework.swc and flex.swc as RSLs. I tried compiling it today with the flex 3 stuff and it seemed to compile it fine but when it ran I got this trace: Error: Key invalidBookmark was not found in resource bundle collections at mx.resources::ResourceBundle/_getObject() at mx.resources::ResourceBundle/getString() at ListCollectionViewCursor$/loadResources()[C:\dev\flex_201_ja\sdk\frameworks\mx\collections\ListCollectionView.as:1537] at ListCollectionViewCursor$cinit() at global$init()[C:\dev\flex_201_ja\sdk\frameworks\mx\collections\ListCollectionView.as:1455] at global$init()[C:\dev\flex_201_ja\sdk\frameworks\mx\collections\ArrayCollection.as:59] at _ImageTest_FlexInit$/init() at mx.managers::SystemManager/http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal::docFrameHandler() That's really interesting since I used fcsh that came with flex 3 to compile my RSL, style swf, and app swf. Why does it have flex_201 in the stack trace? Also, line 1537 in ListCollectionView.as in the flex 3 source doesn't match the error but that line in the flex 201 source does. Anybody have any idea what's going on here? Thanks, jdv

Correct. The JARs that supported advanced anti-aliasing are in the repo,
but not their source code, and I don't think the JARs are
redistributable.

Found the problem. Seems I need to set advanced anti-aliasing to false
in the flex-config.xml.
Also this problem doesn't seem to be encountered using the Adobe Flex
SDK download. I guess advanced anti-aliasing isn't supported in the
Open Source SDK?

[flexcoders] Re: New files in project not compiled? RESOLVED
I put a dummy reference to the missing classes, and then the ide decides they are worth compiling, and does so. Before everyone laughs at my ineptitude, I'd like to explain what I was doing. I'm using a rails back end, and returning a collection of objects that map to AS objects. On the rails side, I create the mapping (i.e. Chart - model.vo.Chart). I was inspecting the objects I was getting back, and they were just plain Object, not the model.vo.Chart I was expecting. Turns out the model.vo.Chart was not compiled, because I had yet to do anything with the returned objects. I wrote some dummy code that actually referenced the returned data, and whala. It compiled the classes, and now I'm getting correctly typed collections back from rails now. Kind of a chicken before the egg thing. Thank you guys for all your help!

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Sprite.children
So how come you don't sub class Array and add an 'on added' event that tells the Player when something is added? One reason is that there is no way that even a subclass of Array could know when children[i] was assigned a new value. (EcmaScript and ActionScript have ino equivalent of a setter function for array elements.) And, of course, there would still be no type safety. Another reason is that Arrays can be sparse -- you can have an Array with elements 0, 1, 17, and 99. The Flash Player team didn't want this model for the children of a DisplayObjectContainer. Who cares if Array isn't strongly typed? So long as the Player finds something that looks and smells like a DisplayObject, wouldn't that be enough? Most people who are writing nontrival apps come to rely heavily on type safety as the single most important thing that the compiler provides. It catches a huge number of bugs when you're writing your app rather than leaving them for your customers to find at runtime.
