[flexcoders] Re: DateChooser setting displayedMonth, displayedYear does nothing
Thank's - I could solve it easily with your explanations. And now it is totally
clear to me why
it couldn't work.
But there was no warning in the console.
Thank's again _rico

I didn't run the code, but by looking at it, the selectableRange is
bound to a plain old object which doesn't support binding. You should
have seen a warning in the console at runtime. Thus at init time, the
selectableRange is bogus and the displayedMonth/Year probably get
screwed up as well.

Hi Alex, thanks for the reply. I made a simple test case, and could
figure out why it is not
working as expected- Can you shortly have look at this code:
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
creationComplete=build()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
[Bindable]

private var _rangeEnd:Date;
[Bindable]
private var _rangeEnd_two:Date = new Date(2007,0,1);
private function build():void
{
_rangeStart = new Date(2006,0,1);
_rangeEnd = new Date(2007,0,1);
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Label text=Dates set in creation complete handler: doesn't work for
me /
mx:DateChooser
selectableRange={{rangeStart : _rangeStart, rangeEnd :_rangeEnd}}
displayedMonth=10
displayedYear=2006
/
mx:Label text=Dates set initially: works for me /
mx:DateChooser
selectableRange={{rangeStart : _rangeStart_two, rangeEnd
:_rangeEnd_two}}
displayedMonth=10
displayedYear=2006

/mx:Application
Is that explainable ?

Hi,
I have a DateChooser in a popUp window. If I set the displayedMonth

properties on that DateChooser (after creating the popup), nothing
happens. The display is
still on the month and year previously selected/displayed. Does
anybody
have an idea ?
code (parent comp):

Hi Alex,
Here is the bug when you set correct value and get incorrect result.
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-14983
adding 24 hours does will not cause switching to the next date if it
happens over the daylight saving change date [summer-winter])

Subject: [flexcoders] bug in setMonth() method?
Hi, all;
I'm working on making an app that will allow users to navigate from
one month to the next based on a start date and end date. I noticed
some interesting effects with the date object and days that fall
outside the 1-31 range (http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j
http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j ), so I thought I'd
try something similar with months.
What I find is if the current month is 11 and you add 1 to it, you'll
actually wind up with a date that's not in the _next_ year, but one
in the year following.
Here's my code
public function makeDisplayedMonths(beginDate:Date, endDate:Date):void
{
var today:Date= new Date();
//set up date for loop
var parseDate:Date = beginDate;
//equalize parsedate and enddate
parseDate.setDate(1);
endDate.setDate(1);
while (parseDate = endDate) {
//update date
parseDate.setMonth(++parseDate.month);
trace(parseDate, endDate);
}
}
the trace is this
Tue Jul 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Fri Aug 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009

Mon Dec 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Fri Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2010 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Note that it goes from Dec 1 2008 to Jan 1 2010, skipping 2009
altogether.
Obviously now I know this I can code around it, but it seems like it
should either throw an error that the month is out of range or just
keep incrementing.
Or have I missed something here?
Thanks;

[flexcoders] Determine IS with a Class object rather than an instance?
Guys,
Say I have this:
function findMeAClassMagic() : Class { ... }
var foo : Class = findMeAClassMagic();
Can I determine whether or not the class represented by Foo is a Bar or a
subclass of Bar, without attempting to call a new foo() and hoping foo has a
zero-argument constructor inside a try-catch block? I'd rather not risk any
unwanted side-effects if possible, as I can't always know that foo() won't
do something unruly.
Cheers,

[flexcoders] Buggy tree control
Hi All I've been having some very odd issues with my tree control in Flex 3. My control is bound to an XML dataprovider and has a custom dataDescriptor (but all these issues seem to continue without the dataDescriptor). One issues was that if I delete a node and then append a new node in it's place enough times the scroll bars on the tree control would appear as the tree control think that the tree is a lot longer. If you scroll you get the root node multiple times. This was fixed by using replaceNode instead. I've also had a lot of lay out issues, multiple labels appearing on one branch ect. Lastly, and this is the bug I want help with, when I expand a branch and try to click on a leaf (that has just been added) I often can't click on it initially. I have to click on the selected and expanded parent then click on the child to select it. I have tried to make simple test cases for these issues but have not been able to replicate it in a cut down version. I may have another go at this later if I have time. Has anyone else had trouble with the tree component? Thanks -- Giles Roadnight http://giles.roadnight.name

Re: [flexcoders] a simple question of BitmapData
This will most likely fail, for 2 reasons:
1. In order to deserialze a object of a special type, you need to call
'registerClassAlias'
2. BitmapData has a constructor with required arguments
If you wanted to serialize a BitmapData instance into AMF you would need to
extend the class and set default values for the constructor.

Hi,
you can use this method:

[flexcoders] FMS3 sys reqs
Hi, Sorry for the slightly tangential post but Adobe support wants to charge me $12,595 AUD to tell me whether FMS3 will run on a certain linux kernel without issues. I have a few choice words in response that I don't need to repeat here. If there is a better forum for this question then kindly point me to it. Basically - there is a tech note: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402839sliceId=2 That says that on RHEL4 with kernel 2.6.9-42 FMS3 is restricted to 500 connections, rather than the ~1200 connections it could support and recommends that the kernel be downgraded to 2.6.9-22. What i want to know is - what about subsequent versions of the kernel, does the problem still exist ? Is anyone else here running FMS3 on RHEL 5 with no upper connection limitations ??

[flexcoders] Using custom item renderer with List
Hi all,
In my application I am pooling data every 3 seconds. The data goes
into a model which updates a view. I am using a list with a custom
Item renderer. In the custom itemRenderer I am overriding the data
getter/setter.
Everything works fine (the bindings and all) except one fact: the the
DataProvider for the List contains only 4 items. When I trace out the
data value in the overriden setter in the itemRenderrer the first
item form the DataProvider is displayed twice.
Has Anyone any ideea why?
Does that means somehow that the list adds the first item from the
dataProvider twice? When i log the length of the dataProvider it
always display 4. This issue is giving me hedaches for a few days now ...
code snippet:
the overriden data porperty in the custom item renderer look as below
private var _data : Object;
override public function set data(val : Object) : void
{
trace(data setter = + val);
this._data = val;
}
the trace always display 5 lines on every model update and the first
item is displayed twice
TIA

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Bindable tag question
If you have:
var myList : ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
And it's not bindable, but points to objects that are, then a component that
has it as a dataProvider will update when you add an item, or remove an
item, or change an item. But, since the myList variable itself is not
bindable, you could do this:
myList = new ArrayCollection();
And there'd be no update, and myDatagrid.dataProvider would still point to
the old ArrayCollection.

Hi,
Thanks, I now get that addItem method was responsible for triggering
the property change event. But I am not very clear what purpose does
it serve to have the dataProvider as Bindable. Based on your example I
created a class Company and used an Arraycollection companyList to
display companies in the datagrid. It did not matter whether the
companyList was Bindable or not. All that was required was that the
name property of Company should be Bindable. Also for a list
containing Object the value of the datagrid was not updated if any
object property was changed irrespective of whether the list is
Bindable or not.
The thing is that if I do not set the dataprovider as Bindable
I get a warning that Data Binding would not be able to detect
assignments to the dataProvider. I would be grateful if you could
point me to a scenario where declaring the dataProvider as Bindable
makes a difference. Would it be in cases like where I use something
like dataGrid2.dataProvider = {dataGrid1.dataProvider}.

If you call addItem(), updateItem(), etc, the PropertyChangedEvent is

But, if you have an IList of objects, and you do this:
var company : Company = companyList.getItemAt(3) as Company;
company.name = New name;
then you'll only get the new data on screen if Company (or
Company.name) is
marked [Bindable]
When you call the modifying methods on the dataprovider itself, then the
change is marked as happening on the IList (and it dispatches the
PropertyChangedEvent). But if you change the content of an object
contained
within that list, nobody knows about it unless you add the [Bindable].
[Bindable] is a compile-time decorator that dispatches the events on
your

My control is bound to an XML dataprovider and has a custom dataDescriptor (but all these issues seem to continue without the dataDescriptor). One issues was that if I delete a node and then append a new node in it's place enough times the scroll bars on the tree control would appear as the tree control think that the tree is a lot longer. If you scroll you get the root node multiple times. This was fixed by using replaceNode instead. I've also had a lot of lay out issues, multiple labels appearing on one branch ect. Lastly, and this is the bug I want help with, when I expand a branch and try to click on a leaf (that has just been added) I often can't click on it initially.

Hi, all;
I'm working on making an app that will allow users to navigate from
one month to the next based on a start date and end date. I noticed
some interesting effects with the date object and days that fall
outside the 1-31 range (http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j
http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j
http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j ), so I
thought I'd
try something similar with months.
What I find is if the current month is 11 and you add 1 to it, you'll
actually wind up with a date that's not in the _next_ year, but one
in the year following.
Here's my code
public function makeDisplayedMonths(beginDate:Date, endDate:Date):void
{
var today:Date= new Date();
//set up date for loop
var parseDate:Date = beginDate;
//equalize parsedate and enddate
parseDate.setDate(1);
endDate.setDate(1);
while (parseDate = endDate) {
//update date
parseDate.setMonth(++parseDate.month);
trace(parseDate, endDate);
}
}
the trace is this
Tue Jul 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Fri Aug 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009

Fri Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2010 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Note that it goes from Dec 1 2008 to Jan 1 2010, skipping 2009
altogether.
Obviously now I know this I can code around it, but it seems like it
should either throw an error that the month is out of range or just
keep incrementing.
Or have I missed something here?

As part of our app's upgrade to flex 3 we are switching from fds to blaze DS. Because of legal reasons since Blaze is open source we need to split out the blaze war and leave it as something the customer will install separately. I have found a few blogs discussing blaze and Web Logic, but it requires you use BEA Studio.

get an error, TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or

Since
firstName.text = obj.firstName;
lastName.text = obj.lastName;
email.text= obj.email;
are shown on the first tab when the function is called, they work, but
the other items
addressone.text = obj.addressone;
addresstwo.text = obj.addresstwo;
state.text = obj.state;
country.text = obj.country
give me the error , if I comment them out they work fine.
I am used to DoJo when creating a Tab Navigator I can write to all the
text input win the other tabs that are not shown. Can I write to
something a tab if it is now displayed yet in flex???

[flexcoders] Re: bug in setMonth() method?
Hi Alex,
The number of milliseconds in GMT will be correct, but local time will
be wrong.
Douglas suggested in a couple of posts above the solution which works
mydate.date +=1;
mydate = new Date(mydate);
This thing goes correctly over the daylight savings. So I presume the
functionality which checks it is there in set date(), but not in set
time().
Cheers,
Dmitri.

Subject: [flexcoders] bug in setMonth() method?
Hi, all;
I'm working on making an app that will allow users to navigate from
one month to the next based on a start date and end date. I noticed
some interesting effects with the date object and days that fall
outside the 1-31 range (http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j
http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j
http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j http://tinyurl.com/5qc46j ), so I
thought I'd
try something similar with months.
What I find is if the current month is 11 and you add 1 to it, you'll
actually wind up with a date that's not in the _next_ year, but one
in the year following.
Here's my code
public function makeDisplayedMonths(beginDate:Date, endDate:Date):void
{
var today:Date= new Date();
//set up date for loop
var parseDate:Date = beginDate;
//equalize parsedate and enddate
parseDate.setDate(1);
endDate.setDate(1);
while (parseDate = endDate) {
//update date
parseDate.setMonth(++parseDate.month);
trace(parseDate, endDate);
}
}
the trace is this
Tue Jul 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Fri Aug 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Mon Sep 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Wed Oct 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Sat Nov 1 00:00:00 GMT-0500 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Mon Dec 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2008 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Fri Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2010 Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT-0600 2009
Note that it goes from Dec 1 2008 to Jan 1 2010, skipping 2009
altogether.
Obviously now I know this I can code around it, but it seems like it
should either throw an error that the month is out of range or just
keep incrementing.
Or have I missed something here?
Thanks;

Hi,
Thanks, I now get that addItem method was responsible for
triggering
the property change event. But I am not very clear what purpose does
it serve to have the dataProvider as Bindable. Based on your
example I
created a class Company and used an Arraycollection companyList to
display companies in the datagrid. It did not matter whether the
companyList was Bindable or not. All that was required was that the
name property of Company should be Bindable. Also for a list
containing Object the value of the datagrid was not updated if any
object property was changed irrespective of whether the list is
Bindable or not.
The thing is that if I do not set the dataprovider as
Bindable
I get a warning that Data Binding would not be able to detect
assignments to the dataProvider. I would be grateful if you could
point me to a scenario where declaring the dataProvider as Bindable
makes a difference. Would it be in cases like where I use something
like dataGrid2.dataProvider = {dataGrid1.dataProvider}.
The reason you get the warning when it is not bindable is you're
using the {} notation. That is specifically telling Flex to use a
bindable variable. If that variable weren't set prior to your
component's being drawn by the Framework, you would actually have an
empty datagrid--simply assigning a value to the dataProvider variable
would not populate the grid. One advantage of using a bindable
variable is that you don't have to worry about setting your
dataprovider explicitly at the right time to allow the Framework to
lay out and size your component correctly.
For instance, if your component that needs a dataProvider is a child
of a List component, then the first time the component is drawn, the
dataChange event will happen before that child exists. If you try to
set the dataProvider in code yourself, you might be tempted to try to
use the dataChange event to do that setting. But this won't work
because the child component hasn't been drawn.
So if you _don't_ use data binding, you need to really understand the
component lifecycle, since you'll need to assign the dataprovider to
the component yourself at the correct time, in an override of the
commitProperties() method. When you _do_ use dataBinding, simply
assigning a value (or a new value) to the variable triggers the
Framework to handle all of this for you.
What you're seeing with the ArrayCollection type is something
slightly different from data binding. In essence, this variable type
is specifically designed to talk to your dataGrid and stay in synch.
When you change something inside an ArrayCollection element, you can
get your dataProvider to update by calling the refresh() method on
the ArrayCollection. I think this works whether the ArrayCollection
itself is bindable or not. I'm a bit fuzzy on the details of that,
so I'll leave it to more experienced developers to flesh that out if
you need more info.

[flexcoders] Debugging Flex3-AMFPHP

[flexcoders] CS3 to flex tutorials
Anyone recommend some good tutorials for creating a flash component that I can export into flex and change its values from flex. I've followed the following example on http://lordbron.wordpress.com/2007/05/01/flex-component-kit-step-by-step / which was pretty helpful. I've managed to create a component using the above example that can change its state but I'm unsure as to how to create in flash changeable properties. Say for example you wish to create the above example from the link (for those that haven't looked at the link it creates a blue ball that expands and contracts depending on its state) but as well as changing its size say you wished to give it a dynamic colour, or similar that would be settable at run time. I've only just started to look at flash so if anyone could point me in the direction of some tutorials or tell me how it's done that would be great. Most of the examples I've looked at so far do not have dynamic properties or miss out the steps that an experienced flash dev would probably know like the back of their hand J, but the whole timeline thing is still a bit for foreign to me right now.

[flexcoders] resourceManager and actionScript updates
Hello list,
I have a project with the resourceManager to have internationalisation
on the application.
All works fine when I do my stuff into mxml files, but if I add some
actionScript code into AS code-behind classes, the update seems work
only if the component has not been viewed.
Example : I have a simple mxml / as component with this code :
mxml :
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
my:mycomp2 xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=400
height=300
xmlns:my=*
creationComplete=init()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
override protected function init():void
{
// your code here
// (if really necessary, otherwise code on [Class]Base.as)
super.init();
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Button id=mybutton /
/my:mycomp2
ActionScript :
package
{
import mx.containers.Canvas;
import mx.controls.Button;
import mx.resources.IResourceManager;
import mx.resources.ResourceManager;
public class mycomp2 extends Canvas
{
public var mybutton:Button;
public var rm:IResourceManager;
public function mycomp2()
{
rm = ResourceManager.getInstance();
}
protected function init():void
{
this.mybutton.label = rm.getString('myResources', 'fieldEmail');
}
}
}
On my main mxml application, I set my resourceManager, and have a
combobox to select the correct language. On the change handler of the
combobox, I use :
private function localeComboBox_changeHandler(event:Event):void
{
resourceManager.localeChain = [ localeComboBox.selectedItem ];
resourceManager.update();
}
If I don't display first time my component and change the language, the
component display correctly the update. But since I display the
component, even only one time, it seems that the ResourceManager
wouldn't made any change on the actionScript setted values for the
further displays...
Anybody know this issue / have a solution about it ??
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Yes. In Flex we have a GIGO policy. garbage in, garbage out. We have enough complaints about runtime memory usage, swf size and performance that adding parameter checking was not practical. The player does some checking, but not everywhere as well for the same reason. That said, we hope to have time to use conditional compilation to put in more dev-time checking in future releases, but if we do, I don't want to hear complaints about why the debug version is so slow.

RE: [flexcoders] Access Child Document Flex Components
You can access the public members of a component instantiated with an
mxml tag by using the id property, which the compiler turns into an
instance variable containing a reference to the component:
myComponentId.GetUserDataRequest.send();
Also you might want to look into using AsyncToken to associate a result
with its send() call.

[flexcoders] Re: Access Child Document Flex Components
Hi Tim,
You're now getting to the point were serious consideration, towards
using an MVC micro-architecture, should be given. You can do many
things, in an application, by accessing parent and child components
directly. However, there is a point in every application (similar to
the point of diminishing returns), where it makes sense to utilize the
benefits (loose coupling) of an event driven approach; with something
like Cairngorm. I highly recommend that you bite the bullet and invest
some time now, to learn Cairngorm; as well as the extremely useful UM
extensions. Learning this will answer the questions that you have
asked. There are some that will argue different MVC approaches, but
Cairngorm is a great place to begin. The time spent now will most
certainly change your approach towards development in an exponentially
positive manner.

RE: [flexcoders] resourceManager and actionScript updates
You're setting mybutton.label only once, when init() executes at
creationComplete time. Since you're not using databinding, the label
isn't going to automatically change when you change the localeChain. You
need to override the resourcesChanged() method and reset the label.
Since you like to use code-behind to separate the View from the
Model/Controller, wouldn't it make more sense to consider the localized
strings part of the View and put them in the MXML using databinding so
that they automatically update when the localeChain changes?
BTW, you don't need to declare and initialize your 'rm' instance
variable. Your 'mycomp2' component already has a 'resourceManager'
property because it extends UIComponent.

Hello list,
I have a project with the resourceManager to have internationalisation

All works fine when I do my stuff into mxml files, but if I add some
actionScript code into AS code-behind classes, the update seems work
only if the component has not been viewed.
Example : I have a simple mxml / as component with this code :
mxml :

my:mycomp2 xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml width=400

{
// your code here
// (if really necessary, otherwise code on [Class]Base.as)
super.init();
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Button id=mybutton /
/my:mycomp2
ActionScript :
package
{
import mx.containers.Canvas;
import mx.controls.Button;
import mx.resources.IResourceManager;
import mx.resources.ResourceManager;

}
On my main mxml application, I set my resourceManager, and have a
combobox to select the correct language. On the change handler of the
combobox, I use :
private function localeComboBox_changeHandler(event:Event):void
{
resourceManager.localeChain = [ localeComboBox.selectedItem ];
resourceManager.update();
}
If I don't display first time my component and change the language, the
component display correctly the update. But since I display the
component, even only one time, it seems that the ResourceManager
wouldn't made any change on the actionScript setted values for the
further displays...
Anybody know this issue / have a solution about it ??

[flexcoders] DataGrid visibility problem
I have a datagrid in an AIR application that works fine on my dev machine (Vista), but that is blank when run on another machine (XP). Essentially, the grid visually appear on the screen as if it were an empty grid with no headers. Once I click on a header, the words appear in the header and stay there. The items in the grid only show on the screen when a modal TitleWindow is open over them (and you move the modal aside). Then when you close the model, the grid content vanishes again. The datagrid is populated by an ArrayCollection. Any ideas on what could case this? -Cameron -- Cameron Childress Sumo Consulting Inc http://www.sumoc.com --- cell: 678.637.5072 aim: cameroncf email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[flexcoders] Stress Testing a BlazeDS Application
Is there a FREE way to stress test a real-time messaging BlazeDS application? I tried using JMeter, but I can't capture all of the http request data to set up the test because you need to use a proxy for that, and BlazeDS falls back to a polling channel if a proxy is used. I looked in flexunit, but that doesn't seem like it's appropriate for this type of test. I want to establish 100, 200, 300,... clients until it breaks the server. All that needs to happen is a login(via acegi security) and a Consumer subscription request. Unfortunately, acegi requires a jsessionid for each http request to validate, and that's what I'm having difficulty with. Basically, any requests to the server are interrupted by acegi and the jsessionid is validated. If the validation is successful, the web asset is fetched. If validation fails, the login JSP page is returned. This is also causing issues with an AIR app that I have that has a flex login interface. The jesssionid doesn't seem to get cached within the AIR http request headers. Thanks for any help. ~Geoff~

Say for example you wish to create the above example from the link (for those that haven’t looked at the link it creates a blue ball that expands and contracts depending on its state) but as well as changing its size say you wished to give it a dynamic colour, or similar that would be settable at run time. I’ve only just started to look at flash so if anyone could point me in the direction of some tutorials or tell me how it’s done that would be great. Most of the examples I’ve looked at so far do not have dynamic properties or miss out the steps that an experienced flash dev would probably know like the back of their hand J, but the whole timeline thing is still a bit for foreign to me right now.

[flexcoders] Re: Keeping selectedItem in diffrent viewstates
Hi,
There are a few ways that you can keep your different list controls in
sync; concerning the selectedItem or selectedIndex. Probably the
easiest way is to create a variable for the selectedIndex, updated on
the change event of the three controls, and bound to the selectedIndex
property of the three controls:
[Bindable]
private var mySelectedIndex : int = -1;
mx:TileList id=myTileList
selectedIndex={ mySelectedIndex }
change=mySelectedIndex=myTileList.selectedIndex/
mx:DataGrid id=myDataGrid
selectedIndex={ mySelectedIndex }
change=mySelectedIndex=myDataGrid.selectedIndex/
mx:HorizontalList id=myHorizontalListControl
selectedIndex={ mySelectedIndex }
change=mySelectedIndex=myHorizontalListControl.selectedIndex/
It's better to use a function and event.currentTarget.selectedIndex, to
set the mySelectedIndex; but you get the idea.

Re: [flexcoders] resourceManager and actionScript updates
Thanks Gordon for your answer.
I found the same way, overriding the resourcesChanged method.
For this simple example, I can use dataBinding directly into mxml, but
for my real application, it's useful to do some stuff with actionScript,
especially for labels who changes on user interaction (ie: login phase
with bad return).
For the rm instance, it was a mistake/test in my code, I use the
resourceManager property like you said.
Thank you :)

[flexcoders] Re: Grr, HTTPService doesn't work when it should
You have set the contentType property of your request to
application/xml and the sent an empty string as your request. Flex
(Probably) sees that and sends as the XML request. You probably
want to remove the contentType property of your request and let flex
use a contentType of application/x-www-form-urlencoded (The default).

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Access Child Document Flex Components
Hmm? Lets be clear on our language then. A Flex Component has two
states of being, the class, as implemented either in mxml or AS, and the
instance, which is what you get when you do:
my:CustomComponent /
Or: new CustomComponent();
It is easy to put an id on a Flex component instantiated in the first
manner:
my:CustomComponent id=myComp/
And you can then access any public member in MyComponent instance like:
myComp.myMember
It is a bit harder if you ar instanitating the components manually.
Or are you using the term, Flex Component in a different way?

Guys,
Say I have this:
function findMeAClassMagic() : Class { ... }
var foo : Class = findMeAClassMagic();
Can I determine whether or not the class represented by Foo is a Bar or a
subclass of Bar, without attempting to call a new foo() and hoping foo has a
zero-argument constructor inside a try-catch block? I'd rather not risk any
unwanted side-effects if possible, as I can't always know that foo() won't
do something unruly.
Cheers,

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Grr, HTTPService doesn't work when it should
You said, Flex shuts down hard, but then you said you DG is empty, so
persumabley is is displaying. So Flex is not shutting down?
Yes, on valdhors suggestion to leave contentType at the default.
Also, you have not set the resultFormat=e4x which means you are
working with a tree of dynamic objects. This is rarely desirable. I
advise working with e4x, XML, XMLList and XMLListCollection. In some
cases, ther can be performance problems with these objects, and you
would need to move to generating an ArrayCollection of strongly typed
VOs. But I advise going the XML route until you see a need to change.
The default resultFormat=object is kinda the worst of both worlds, you
lose the e4x filter/selection functionality and still have the
performance hit of accessing dynamic objects.
Also, If I am reading your xml right, your expression would be correct
for e4x xml:
checkJobs.lastResult.jobs.job would return an XMLList of all of the
job nodes.
Finally, I advise using a result handler instead of binding directly to
lastResult. Binding is hard to debug, and sooner or later you will need
to take some action when the result data arrives. Hard to do that in a
binding.

Or are you using the term, Flex Component in a different way?

Tracy I dont think a flex component can have an id, what might I be
ding wrong?
Thanks,

You can access the public members of a component instantiated with an
mxml tag by using the id property, which the compiler turns into an
instance variable containing a reference to the component:
myComponentId.GetUserDataRequest.send();
Also you might want to look into using AsyncToken to associate a
result
with its send() call.

Subject: [flexcoders] Access Child Document Flex Components
Hello all,
Thanks for all the help That I have recieved, I am learning alot.
Main Application that has many Flex Components. I want to call a
HTTPService from the main app page, I am not sure how to do this.
I have tried GetUserDataRequest.send() but to no avail.
mx:HTTPService id=GetUserDataRequest
url={getURL.PerformaGetUserData()} /
I know that there is a way to call parent items parentDocument.
but not sure of a way to call childDocuments.
Again Thanks for all the help.

[flexcoders] Flex2 - using same swf in a browser over 20 times crashes it...
I have a need to show a chart in an html table (one chart in a cell in every row of the table - it has over 40 rows) I am loading mychart.swf into the html td and it all works fine. The problem is that when the number of charts are 20 the browser crashes (both IE and FF) - out of memory. Since it is the same swf (same flash object) - i am only passing different parameters to each instance - i am wondering if there is any way to make the browser reuse the same flash object - instead of getting it from the server everytime - any other thoughts on how i can make this less resource intensive (my swf is around 300k) I read something about using RSLs, but i am hoping there is an easier way to achieve this - i am trying to see if i can make the browser not fetch the swf again and again... thanks Vijay
Re: [flexcoders] talk from one swf to another
This is what I was refering to when I said:
The functionality of Data Management's client-side data synchronization can
however be simulated using a messaging framework.
Similar to the collaboration dashboard seen in the BlazeDS examples.
Best,

Maybe. But it can be done with blazeds.
Here's how -- Data Push:
1. In swf1 create an event that calls a server method using RemoteObject.
2. On the server, do something like this:
package foo;
import flex.messaging.MessageBroker;
import flex.messaging.messages.AsyncMessage;
import flex.messaging.util.UUIDUtils;
public class FooUtils {
public void pushData() {
MessageBroker mb = MessageBroker.getMessageBroker(null);
AsyncMessage am = new AsyncMessage();
am.setDestination(pusher);
am.setMessageId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
am.setBody(foobar);
mb.routeMessageToService(am, null);
}
}
In messaging-config.xml set the destination:
destination id=pusher
channels
channel ref=my-streaming-amf/
/channels
/destination
3. In swf2 create a consumer:
mx:Consumer id=consumer destination=feed
message=messageHandler(event.message)/
4. In swf2 create a handler that handles the push:
private function messageHandler(message:IMessage):void {
trace(You rock);
//do whatever!
}

Kind regards.

Hi.
Im using blazeds and a java backend.
I have a swf that updates stuff on the server and thus in the database.
My question is: Is it possible to have a second swf (using blazeds)
that will listen for
or subscribe to changes on a server object and have the server
object push changes to the
subscribed object.
IOW. I want to have one swf respond to changes made with a different
swf.
Thanks.
Kind regards.
Luke.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex2 - using same swf in a browser over 20 times crashes it...
That sounds very inefficient. Even using RSLs. Could you not use a single Flex App and put your charts in a TileList, with optimized item renderers? This way, flex can recycle the chart renderers as you scroll. You should get better performance and better memory management. I do not know enough about the flash player internals to know really how bad 40 individual flex applications are, but it just seems like a bad idea. It will be some work, but your requirements are not trivial.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex2 - using same swf in a browser over 20 times crashes it...
I would be surprised if loading 20+ SWFs with nothing in them didn't crash the browser. Can you not just replace the HTML table with a single SWF with a DataGrid?

[flexcoders] Re: Securely Interfacing Between Flex and Databases
Well the concern is that no matter how you choose to encrypt/decrypt information, a Flash movie can always be decompiled and your decryption method is caught with its pants down, allowing users to find out how to view sensitive material that they're not supposed to be looking at. So how are we supposed to move this kind of data in and out of a Flex application without the worry? Does SSL even help? The concern is not the forging of data, but rather the interception and decryption of it. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, andrewwestberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Simply having SSL (https) enabled on your php webserver will help.

[flexcoders] dataprovider question
Hi Folks, I'm wondering how to force a datagrid to update it's contents when a value on a server changes...do i have to query the server every time? or is there some other way of refreshing this data...shouldn't it update as soon as the data on the server changes? thanks p
