I want to prevent his so that I can multiselect elements in the combobox.
Is there a way to do this? Even if I extend the ComboBox and override its
close method, the combobox still closes (and I realized that there is a
private method in ComboBox.as called destroyDropdown() which gets called
when the collection that the combobox holds changes.

[flexcoders] Re: How to expose Hibernate 'non' conventional beans into flex apps via remoting
Thank you Robert. I appreciate your response. I read your blog and it makes total sense to me as this is where I am coming from as well. I actually encourage anyone coming from the java world with an existing application (JSP/JSF/Struts/Hibernate/Spring/etc..) or not, to read the blog if you are interested in investigating flex. Basically since my post, I have been playing with the Externalizable alternative and I managed to make a simple CRUD flex component based on the datagrid talking to a java service layer (spring/hibernate back end). It seems to be working fine. This solution will work fine for the session closing problems and huge graphs you mentioned in your blog. Also compared to the DTO/Assembler approach, it saves you from having to creating that significant layer. Now, where It falls short I believe, from what I can see today, is flexibility. In fact, with the Serialization approach, you can serialize an object 1 and only 1 way. If I only need the parent object in a request, but also needs its children in another request I can't do! Which is some of the flexibility that the DTO/Assembler approach provides certainely. Robert, I am going to try out the DTO/Assembler approach (Something tells me it is worth the initial investment). Any pointers, samples, whatever will be great. If you dont have anything, no worries, will figure it out. Thank you. And again, great Blog...! Will be adding my experience once I am done looking at the second alternative. Thenof course there is LifeCycle DS...I dont know if those problems also exist in Lifecycle...?

Which is basically the first solution you proposed.Use custom assemblers to create DTOs from your DOs . This is my current opinion on the subject. There are a few criteria for that I've come up with for doing this extra amount of work, but the one that I've found most compelling is this: **your domain model, or domain objects, or hibernate objects, whatever you want to call them, have deep or complex hierarchies that would be expensive to recreate when BlazeDS transfers the object over the wire**. If your graph is deep you'll end up pulling out a bunch of objects you might not need on the front end. If you close the session early you'll end up with unavailable session exceptions and you may have to adopt the open session in view pattern for the message broker servlet, which is less than ideal because you'd have to configure it for the servlet path and it might be too difficult to configure it per method invocation. Check out my blog post on the subject: http://www.machine501.com/blog/2008/06/03/useful-patterns-for-blazeds/ It's painful, and I think it is something that stops people from adopting blazeds. it would be ideal if there was a way to configure object factories in BlazeDS so that it could deal with your problem of argument constructors, and, if it was possible to give blazeds hints about the properties it should attempt to serialize on a per-method manner. cheers /r On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 2:20 AM, Mehdi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am relatively new to the flex world. I am from the Spring/Hibernate world. In Hibernate, the POJO object or domain object , or simply beans that you use to persist you object into the database does not have to follow the bean definition/contract, i.e: public default constructor with getter/setters. There are good reasons behind creating those kind of 'hibernate beans' (I will call them that way for lack of a better name). In fact, only defining a one-parameter constructor (i.e. omitting the default one) guaranties you that your client cannot invoke your API without that needed parameter. Likewise, exposing only the getters for some private member variables (without the setters) makes sense when you don't want that variable to ever change, etchibernate manage to access these fields using cglib, and other tricks. Now, my understanding of Flex and how remote services work (from what I could see in all the samples around about hibernate/spring), is that your java server bean get proxied 'dynamically' or 'statically' (via an Actionscript class object) according to the rule: Only values found in public bean properties with get/set methods and public variables are being copied over to the client proxy object. Which means that if I dont have a default constructor I am toast. It also means that my public getVar()

Check out distributive law of boolean algebra, and operator precedence. In this case it's the same because logical AND anyway has precedence over logical OR. Your statements could also be written like this: AB+C (AB)+C So, obviously they are the same. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, bhaq1972 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: if(var1 == var2 var3 == var4 || var5 == X) if((var1 == var2 var3 == var4) || var5 == X)

You do need windows for development. I have Server 2008 in VMWare Fusion running OK - you really need 3 things to get reasonable performance:1. A lot of RAM 2. Use bootcamp drivers in VMWare on the top of Fusion ones to get access/performance of the native apple hardware like bluetooth, camera, etc 3. Fine tune VMWare as it tends to grab 1 CPU 100% in multicore mode - cures are available on Web Other option is to have bootcamp installed on the second partition - with 250/320 GB drive you can get reasonably configured dual boot system.

[flexcoders] Sharing bindable data between mxml files in different project folders
Hi Varun Shetty, Thanks for your quick response and help. Yep, I implemented this approach in my project and is working fine. However my original requirement was that in my earlier version, I was making my repetitive calls from many .mxml and .as files to an Util.as for fetching these text values, but due to the earlier approach of individual calls to the util.as to fetch the values the performance of the application was slow, hence for the sake of performance improvement only I was trying to make a single call from the homepage.mxml and tried to persist the value and share the variable across all the other files. Now my query is whether this approach of using Application.application.TestValue has any drawbacks. Yes, I am located in Chennai.

[flexcoders] OT (slightly) Gold standard method to make a web Flex app truly skinnable.
Hello All, I'm beginning a project Flex, CF, IIS and SQL, and this time I'm finally going to make sure we all do the proper requirements gathering and research of best practices before writing code (or at least as little as possible). Therefore, I thought I'd ask the group to point me in the direction to solid documentation on the best methods on making a Flex app truly skinnable, from the fonts, (English to Hebrew) to colors, and images, etc. based upon manual user selection or auto based upon best guess of global location automatically, or both. Seems monumental, but someone's done it and it's written somewhere I assume. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Please, help: the release player displays a blank page in all browsers.
Thank you for your answers. Alex: I could try to write an application that loads my swf, but actually I think the swf should work fine since I can run it from debug players. What do you mean with deploying a release swf? I just omitted the -compiler.debug directive and put false as the value of the debug tag in flex-config.xml. Is it right?

I'm experiencing a strange issue: I'm not able to run my Flex app using the release player (I tried Firefox2/player 9.0.124, IE5.5/player 9.0.47 and IE7/player 9.0.124). The page contains a blank swf (when I right click I can see the Flash player menu). The same application works in all browsers using a debug player. The swf doesn't work even if I try to access it directly, while I'm able to run other Flex applications both standalone and using the HTML wrapper. I'm using the Flex 2 SDK hotfix 2 command line compiler. I actually don't know what has caused this behaviour since I use a debug player 99% of time... a colleague discovered this while testing the application. A possibile hint: this morning, using the debug player, I saw a popup window prompting me for the location of the debugger or the profiler: this happens occasionally and, until now, I didn't pay much attention to it (don't know exactly why it appears, I'm compiling using the same options since many months). When I switched to the runtime player the swf seemed to freeze at the same point, though in this case I didn't see the popup window. Maybe this window and the blank page issue are related? Obviously I cannot force my customers to install a debug player ;-) Any help appreciated. Bye, Andrea

[flexcoders] Re: How do I find a row in a datagrid, then cause it to be clicked?
Dom,
I got my issue resolved.
Unfortunately my list box only has two columns of the datagrid, so not an exact
object match. However, my datagrid is an ArrayCollection. So I took the unique
value from my listbox and just did a while loop through the ArrayCollection and
casting each item to an Object using:
myObject = myArrayCollection.getItemAt(index).
Then I just compared the value from my list box to the unique value in my
ArrayCollection:
if (myObject.myDataValue == myListBoxDataValue)
{
// scroll to the row
datagrid.scrollToIndex(index);
// now highlight the row
datagrid.selectedIndex = index;
}
I didn't need to trigger a mouse click on that row like I thought. In my
datagrid I had a handler for the itemClick event, so I just called that method.
Thanks for the guidance.

Re: [flexcoders] Keep combobox open to allow multiselect
Ram,
The component you are trying to create shouldn´t exetend the combobox
for two reasons, first you would have to override a lot of the
combobox methods and second (and for me the most important) you would
break the common sense of how a combobox should behave for example if
it doesn´t close when you select an item when it closes? What you are
going to show when the user select five items?
If I where you I would make that componente based in the canvas or the
vbox container and give it a diferent look form the combobox (after
all as I said the feel is alredy diferent), you could use a label and
a button (for the closed look) and a list with checkboxes itemEditors
(for the opened look)

[flexcoders] Flex access to Browser Properties
I am needing to know some basic information about the browser in which my app is running...minimally I would like to know the dimensions (height, width) of the browser and if it is maximized. Although, if I can get the browsers height and width I believe that I should be able to determine maximization state by using the Capabilities class and making use of the screen's resolution. I would also like to be able to determine the same information that the viewMetricsAndPadding provide. However, if I can get the height and width of the browser, I believe that the SystemManager height/width would be sufficent for me to determine the same information that the view (Edge) metrics would provide. Is there a way, from within flex, to access these browser properties?

[flexcoders] Re: dragDrop function working, but not properly
I believe I fixed my problem, I think the reason it wasn't seeing the
identical value in the array representing the dragged item was because
it did not know it's index so I changed this:
---
private function dragToOrders(event:DragEvent):void
{
try
{
var draggedItems:Object = new Object();
draggedItems = event.dragSource.dataForFormat(items);
var n:int = orderDetailArray.length;
for (var i:int = 0; i n; i++)//Looping through to check for
duplicate entries
{
if (orderDetailArray[i].ProductID == draggedItems.ProductID)
{
orderDetailArray[i].Qty ++;
event.preventDefault();
return;
}
}
}
catch(ex:Error)
{
trace(ex);
trace(ex.getStackTrace());
}
}
---
To this:
---
private function dragToOrders(event:DragEvent):void
{
try
{
var draggedItems:Object = new Object();
draggedItems = event.dragSource.dataForFormat(items);
var n:int = orderDetailArray.length;
for (var i:int = 0; i n; i++)//Looping through to check for
duplicate entries
{
if (orderDetailArray[i].ProductID == draggedItems[0].ProductID)
{
orderDetailArray[i].Qty ++;
event.preventDefault();
return;
}
}
}
catch(ex:Error)
{
trace(ex);
trace(ex.getStackTrace());
}
}
---
No errors thrown, no duplicate entries, however when I trace the value
of orderDetailArray[i].Qty I get NaN which I assume means Not a
Number what I'm guessing here is that it is trying increment from a
null value which is of course, Not a Number. So I think all that's
needed then is to simply put in a default value of 1 for the first entry
in the dataProvider.

Manu,
Note the following.

Flex is interpreting the result from your PHP call as a String. Try
returning lower-case 'true' and 'false'. Also, try using:
list[i].aircon as Boolean
instead of:
Boolean(list[i].aircon)
The former will not always convert to true (but will return null if it
can't convert). Lastly, if you can't make it work, just try this
workaround:
vo.aircon = (''+list[i].aircon).toLowerCase()=='true';

Hi David, I don't know of any manual that tells you how to design a flex app, but I have read all the manuals on how to skin flex applications.

I studied every single skin I found on the net and then I just tried to create a desktop application in a browser. I think it will all came with experience. The more you practice, the more you learn how to use skins and where to use. My first Flex application has used quite a lot of images, and all the latest ones I use a few skins and css to decorate my applications. If I would have to redo every single application I have worked on, I would do it differently this time, cause I have learned quite a few tricks that improve efficiency and friendliness. Just start with the Flex manuals and I think the rest comes with experience. Maybe other people have something to add, but I don't really think there is a way of teaching how to design UIs. I think the best way is to study other people's work. Well, those are my 2 cents. Fidel.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex + WebORB for PHP, A very strage problem
Manu,
First thing I'd do is trace (list[i].aircon) or bind the
ArrayCollection to a dataGrid to see what is actually being returned.
My suspicion is that you are getting the correct true and false data
in the result, but as Uber_Nick suggested, it's a string value, so
you'll need to add an if statement, like this:
if (list[i].aircon == 'true') {
vo.aircon = true;
}
else if (list[i].aircon == 'false') {
vo.aircon = false;
}

Flex is interpreting the result from your PHP call as a String.
Try
returning lower-case 'true' and 'false'. Also, try using:
list[i].aircon as Boolean
instead of:
Boolean(list[i].aircon)
The former will not always convert to true (but will return null
if it
can't convert). Lastly, if you can't make it work, just try this
workaround:
vo.aircon = (''+list[i].aircon).toLowerCase()=='true';

[flexcoders] Re: Login Screen an data format usage
My personal preference is remoting using WebORB. Pretty easy to use, and fast. About the login screen, without going into a lot of detail, you simply submit the username/password to whatever data option you go with. In Flex, you are listening for a result from the data query for success. If successful, you can trigger a State change, or wherever you want to send the user. If you need more detail, I may have one somewhere. Haven't used it in about a year, so I'd have to go looking for it.

[flexcoders] know if .browse() was executed or not
Hello everyone, in my project i need to know wether a fileReference Object did or didn't made a .browse() function. The point is that i have a form with several fields for choose files. Those files i must send them later. So then i need a way to know if user did actually choose a file to upload, or not yet. I was trying checking for some property from fileReference object, like for example .name, so if no name on the object, would mean they didn't select anything there. But accessing the name property when no file choosen throws an IllegalOperationError. Anyone has idea how to know if file was selected or not??? lots of thnx. __ Enviado desde Correo Yahoo!

Re: [flexcoders] Flex + WebORB for PHP, A very strage problem
Hii,
I tried it the same way as suggested by Uber Nick. But the solution din't
worked until I made some changes in my database field types as well as on my
Flex VO class.
Now I set this field as integer in db and Number in my VO class and
receiving the values as Number.
like below:
vo.aircon = int(list[i].aircon);
Now, flex can easily interpret a number other than ZERO as TRUE and Numbers
ZERO as FALSE.
But I suppose, the culprit part remains with the WebORB implementation.
Thanks for helping.
Manu.

[flexcoders] IFBIN status? Need some code, but can't get IFBIN to run
I am trying to do a DES encryption encoding on some Webservice parameters. I have found a few examples, but have not successfully encrypted a parameter so the target site can decrypt it. The example function on Flex Exchanges is for Triple DES and written for Flex 2. The As3 Crypto Library is complicated, undocumented, and I have been able to use it, but not fully successfully. (I can't figure out how to use the initial vector on encryption ) . I see that Darron Schall's FlashVNC on IFBIN contains a DES class, and would like to look at it. I installed IFBIN, but I can't get it to work (It always says the server is not started, though I have attempted that). So three questions: 1) Anyone know of a simple DES encryption class, for non-cryptographers 2) Is Darron's DES class available anywhere but IFBIN 3) Any idea why IFBIN won't run?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: #2038: File I/O Error only in firefox
I'm guessing it's because the session is not retained when performing a file upload to the server - a new session id is created for each FileReference upload attempt. This is a known issue with various workarounds. Modify your server code to ignore any session or login details to be sure this is the problem you are seeing. If it works when you remove any requirement for authentication or any check of the session info, then you're one step closer to fixing the issue. You will then need to: 1. Store the session number in Flex and send it back. On the server you validate against the sent session (a new one will still be created), then send back the new session details. or... 2. Ignore a requirement on the session when doing the actual upload. Find another way of verifying the user is logged in. http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-12851 http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-78 http://thanksmister.com/?p=59 http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders@yahoogroups.com/msg58372.html good luck, jon On Jun 5, 2008, at 12:58 PM, Dennis Falling wrote: I have this problem for standard uploads too, not just SSL...

Use events. EVENT.SELECT is dispatched when the browse() session

private function addFiles():void

myFileReferenceList = new FileReferenceList();

myFileReferenceList.addEventListener(Event.SELECT,

In FlexBuilder3, you use Export Release Build... You can turn off your debug flags too, but I'd just use the builtin feature that does that for you.

Ok. Then all you need to do is use FileReference instead of
FileReferenceList. There is not much to change in the code.
Any attempt to get the .name property before the select event is
dispatched will result in an IllegalOperationError (because you can't
even look at name until Event.SELECT is dispatched).
So, in the onSelectFile method that I posted, .name will then be
available - it will be null if no file was selected. Additionally,
check the documentation on browse(). You might be doing something
else funky that is wrong - such as messing with typelist and not
providing descriptions or extension strings. There are a few things
that would cause the browse() not to return true.
The following should work (not tested).
private var isBrowsingFile:Boolean = false;
private function addFiles():void
{
myFileReference = new FileReference();
if (!isBrowsingFile) {
try
{
isBrowsingFile = myFileReference.browse();
myFileReference.addEventListener(Event.SELECT,
onSelectFile);
}
catch (error:Error)
{
isBrowsingFile = false;
// Handle errors, or add listeners in the try block for
errors
// This is where you would get the IllegalOperationError
}
}
else
{
trace(already browsing for a file);
}
}
// Called when file is selected
private function onSelectFile(event:Event):void
{
isBrowsingFile = false;

[flexcoders] choosing line series
I have a question about adding series to a LineChart.
My data looks like this (simplified pseudo-code):
selectedItems:ArrayCollection
{
Item:myClass
{
id:int
history:ArrayCollection
{
date:Date
val:Number
}
}
}
so, a user adds objects of myClass to the selectedItem
ArrayCollection. There may be any number of these.
Now, I currently have a linechart which displays the history data for
any one myClass object:
mx:LineChart
id=lineChart
dataProvider={dp}
mx:horizontalAxis
mx:CategoryAxis categoryField=date /
/mx:horizontalAxis
mx:series
mx:LineSeries yField=val /
/mx:series
/mx:LineChart
So this plots val by date.
What I would like to do is amend this so that, rather than passing an
individual myClass object to the linechart, I pass an ArrayCollection
containing several, and then plot the val for *each* object's history
on a separate line.
The only examples of multiple series I have seen expects each object
to have a property relating to each series:
new ArrayCollection( [
{ Month: Jan, Profit: 2000, Expenses: 1500, Amount: 450 },
{ Month: Feb, Profit: 1000, Expenses: 200, Amount: 600 },
{ Month: Mar, Profit: 1500, Expenses: 500, Amount: 300 } ])
and then plotting Profit, Expenses and Amount as the three series
against Month.
Mine's subtley different... any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi there:
We've run into some webservice issues here when switching from Flex

3.0, the structures returned on the repsonse were sometimes a
little
different.
For example, we had a data structure returned that was like this:
data.result.UserProfileResponse.snapshots.Calendars
Where Calendars was an ArrayCollection.
Now the struture comes back without the Calendars part, and the
data
is in an ArrayCollection under the
data.result.UserProfileResponse.snapshots structure.
The wsdl loks like this:
![CDATA[
s:complexType name=UserProfileResponse
s:sequence
s:element minOccurs=0 maxOccurs=1 name=userProfileDAO
type=tns:UserProfileDAO /
s:element minOccurs=0 maxOccurs=1 name=snapshots
type=tns:ArrayOfCalendars /

/s:complexType
s:complexType name=ArrayOfCalendars
s:sequence
s:element minOccurs=0 maxOccurs=unbounded name=Calendars
nillable=true type=tns:Calendar /
/s:sequence
/s:complexType

Is this a result of the changes to implement e4x on webservices?
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
It seems this is a knonw bug with Adobe in Flex 3.
If there are nested Arrays, Flex will not handle them properly.
Flex 3.0 also will drop data if the structure of the data is not
ordered exactly as the WSDL dictates. This all wokred fine in Flex
2.0.1. A seriously bad mistake by Adobe to let these bugs slip
through.
So it turns out that switching our Webservice to handle SOAP
responses from 'object' to 'e4x' seems to have solved the problem.
We then used this to set the data back to objects to match the
structure that our Cairngorm responders were expecting:
protected function parseXMLData(xmlData:String) :
Object
{
var xmlDoc:XMLDocument = new XMLDocument(xmlData);
var decoder:SimpleXMLDecoder = new
SimpleXMLDecoder(true);
var obj:Object = decoder.decodeXML(xmlDoc);
var data:Object = new Object;
for(var i:int = 0; i 2; i++)
{
for each(var tempObj:Object in obj)
{
obj = tempObj;
}
}
data.result = obj
return data;
}

Hi Alex, You might try making the code less intensive first; else you'll always have to find a work-around. If you're doing anything, especially calculations, on the render or resize events, you're probably spiking the CPU on a manual browser resize. I'm not hearing that cacheAsBitmap will work for you here, but you can give that a try as well. If those don't help, you can listen for the browser's RESIZE event and disable the offending code.
