Rob, this is exactly how I plan to use it. Can you explain Parallels
and partitions a bit. If I run both OS's in tandem, how do they share
RAM and CPU resources? How did you set that up? 

One big show stopper for me is how Mac handles windows resizing, i.e.
no full screen mode. Is there a plugin or something that can be used
to get around that? I know the Mac fanatics say you don't really need
that and it's better with no full screen, but not for me. I want to
have that option and I if I want to have more windows visible I can
still choose to do so.

Thanks

[flexcoders] Re: Possible to add some data to load to the default preloader?

Can't do that, data is coming from aspx. In fact the only way this
could work is to add info* to swf which data has to be loaded with the
swf itself. Then the Flash Player would read that, calculate the size
of data and add it to the preloader of the main swf. Once the whole
bunsh is downloaded, data would be there in the native format on the
root of the app. Am I dreaming?


* How to add this info is the question. It can't be through AS that's
for sure, because AS is not running until the app is loaded. Write in
the header of the swf? Write in the HTML embed directives?

 I always have some stuff to load before the app can be used. Is it

 Hi guys,
 
 I have just today signed up with this mailing list after stumbling
 across an issue I cannot resolve! Seems to be a flaw with the SWFLoader
 in Flex 3. Basically my problem is this, I have to create a youtube
 player for a client and am using the wrapper classes from martin legris
 to aid me. All is working ok, I have a datagrid being populated by an
 array, and when a video is selected, the SWFLoader loads it into place
 as it should. The problem comes when selecting another video from the
 list, several things happen (or dont!), the loaded Youtube player
 disappears as if another one will be loaded into its place (the desired
 effect) but nothing is loaded, also the sound from the original swf is
 still audible.
 
 Any suggestions or modifications to the code below would be most
 welcome. I have read that possibly using Loader as oppose to SWFLoader
 could be the way to go, or maybe Module Loader? I am ver new to flex but
 not to actionscript and I seem to recall a similar problem once before
 but I am damned if I can remember how (or if) i resolved it.
 
 Anyway, I hope this hasn't been answered ages ago and if it has please
 accept my apologies. I hope I can be of some use to some of you in
 future postings! 
 
 Cheers

Re: [flexcoders] know if .browse() was executed or not

hi, thnx for ur answer.

I think that is a good idea to do.
The only problem is that if user selects a file several times in the same 
file_select button, it would keep getting files inside that array, even i just 
need the last one that he chooses.

thnx

My opinion is that you are thinking about this too much. You do not need to 
have a boolean to determine if a file was selected.

What you need is an array that you populate with the filled FileReference 
instances in the Event.SELECTED event handler. When the user clicks SEND on 
your application, you loop over your array of stored FileReference instances 
and upload each of them.

So in the onSelect function for Event.SELECTED, just push the FileReference 
into the array. Event.SELECTED shouldn't get broadcast unless a file is 
actually selected anyway.

Whether or not your FileReference elements are stored in different views 
doesn't matter - just so long as your array is accessible by all of them so the 
FileReference instance can be added.

private var fileList:Array = new Array();
private function onSelectFile( event:Event) :void
{
var file:FileReference = FileReference( event.target) ;
  fileList.push( file);
}

[flexcoders] Single and Double Quotes and Tokens and SQLite

2008-06-09 Thread Dustin

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to insert data into a SQLite
DB in AIR if the data being inserted or updated contains single or
double quotes using a token based update string like this:

UPDATE SITE SET name='{0}',description='{1}', url='{2}'

If I use a statement helper to create my update statement like this:

public static function create(statement:String, ...args) : String
{
 return StringUtil.substitute(statement, args);
}

and a single quote is in the description (for example) the update
statement fails. If I change the above UPDATE statement to look like this:

UPDATE SITE SET name={0},description={1}, url={2}

I can use single quotes in my arguments but I can't use double quotes
in my arguments. Any advice?

Re: [flexcoders] know if .browse() was executed or not

[flexcoders] Does IE have some problem?

2008-06-09 Thread Manu Dhanda


Hii guyz,

I am just experimenting with some stuff as in here:
http://flats.e-zone.co.in/
It is working very nicely in Firefox whereas if I 'll do couple of clicks
frequently in IE, it keeps on jumping from one screen to another.(Play with
clicking tabs and accordion).
Am using IE version 7.0.5730.11
Also, in IE, it keeps on making tik-tik sounds(maybe thats just the browser
configuration on my side).

Any tips for this IE jumpings?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, includeInLayout doesn't seem to work here. The

Not if you make sure the file doesn't already exist in the array.

This is where you'd use the .name property to check to see if it's

Hi, thnx everyone for the help.

I finally did an array, with one element per file. on select, i wrote the name 
of the file on it's element in the array.

Later i just check if the element of the array is empty or has a name inside :)

pretty close to the array.push version of the solution, but this way i can 
control more each of the file uploads.

[flexcoders] Duplicating classes from the Flex framework / DateChooser customization

2008-06-09 Thread Fiouz

Hi,

What is the appropriate approach to compile the Flex (3) ActionScript sources?
Actually, my original problem is the following: I need to emphasize
specific days in a DateChooser control.

Alas, as of Flex 3.0.0, the DateChooser control does not offer this
functionality. Furthermore, the DateChooser control makes usage of
unsupported API/support classes such as mx.controls.CalendarLayout
through the use of private members/mx_internal namespace.
Consequently, I can hardly make use of these classes (since they don't
apply for the OOP open/closed principle) and I need another way to
achieve my goal.
As a workaround, I found that I could create alternate implementations
of the DateChooser/CalendarLayout classes, mainly by copying the
existing ones and modifying the appropriate methods. Then I started to
rename DateChooser/CalendarLayout to MyDateChooser/MyCalendarLayout
and replacing names (s/DateChooser/MyDateChooser/ 
s/CalendarLayout/MyCalendarLayout/) ; I even copied the entire
frameworks\projects\framework\src directory (from the Flex 3 SDK) to
my build path. The problem with this approach is that my
implementation seems somehow incomplete and is missing some graphical
data (invisible buttons, wrong colors, wrong size) when added to the
project.

Any hint on how I could gain correct graphics from my implementation?
Or is there a better way to achieve my DateChooser customization?

Thanks,
Regards

Re: [flexcoders] How do I bind a Remore Object ArrayColletion item to some popUpWindow form items?

2008-06-09 Thread rreyes

I am using BlazeDS. The thing is that I am loading the array in the main mxml
(I show the array in a grid) but I am editing the item in a PopUp Window
Form. Think this as a master-detail (grid-popUp Window form) app. Still,
when you edit the item using the PopUpWindow Form, nothing happens in the
original array (or at least, no change appears in the grid).

The PopUpWindow variable which holds the item is marked [Bindable]. Any
ideas?

Hi,

Well.. you can't really unless you create a custom skin. There are some open

There is no background position styles either.

So really, what you want to do cannot be done with Flex3 css.

Re: [flexcoders] Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference?

Hi,

From the look if it

;ComboBox(event.target).selectedItem

seems to be where the null pointer is. Make sure you actually have a
selectedItem in the list.

I have actually done this myself when testing and actually forgot to
'select' an item before a service call.

Re: [flexcoders] Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error.

2008-06-09 Thread Mark Doberenz

I came to find out that this is a general error that gets sent to Flex when
an error is getting generated by the server.
Essentially, the error is throwing an error.  I'd suggest using Fiddler to
see what the communication is and what the actual error is.
A limitation of IE/Firefox hosting a Flex app is that the browsers do not
send the data to the Flex app.

What needs to happen is that you need to try to send the fault back as a 200
MSG_OK that contains the fault information.  Flex will then parse the info
and throw an error.

That's what I had to do recently using Axis and I'd assume Spring is
similar.

 that we intend to solve a lot of these issues with our forthcoming
 Pimento data management framework (Open Source):
 
 http://www.spicefactory.org/pimento/
 
 The problems with closed sessions and huge object graphs will be
 solved through FetchPlans. There will be a default fetch plan which
 is to not serialize any uninitialized Hibernate proxy or collection
 but to include all simple properties and initialized associations.
 But the default can be overwritten for individual calls with FetchPlan
 instances created in AS3.

I add an Alert.show, and delete the CALL function, like this:

var atClass:Object = new Object();
atClass.atcls = ComboBox(event.target).selectedItem.data;
Alert.show(atClass[atcls],ALERT);
//gateway.call(cys.getStudents, new Responder(onResult, onFault),

[flexcoders] Re: setting fillcolor with actionscript and stylename

2008-06-09 Thread netdeep



Perhaps I am not understanding this properly.  When I add the following style 
to my Panel:

mx:Style
.gradientBgrd { 
borderStyle: applicationControlBar; 
fillColors: #003483,#a9a7ff; 
fillAlphas: 0.6, 0.6; highlightAlphas: 0, 0; 
}   
/mx:Style

It renders with a nice gradient background because the borderStyle is set to 
applicationControlBar. 

But how do I access the named .gradientBgrd style in my setStyle commands in 
actionscript?  I believe if I could do that, I could effectively set the 
fillColors in the panel 
with Actionscript.

 fillColors is not a supported property (style) for a Panel.  Unless you

[flexcoders] AdvancedDataGrid (DataGrid) Change cell editability at run time

2008-06-09 Thread gene_belor

Hi,

I think the way AdvancedDataGrid (DataGrid) allows cells to be
editable through AdvancedDataGridColumn (DataGridColumn)'s editable
property is restrictive because the property works on the whole column

I was wondering what is the best approach for dynamically changing
whether a cell is editable or not based on a selection in another cell
of the same row. 

For example the following grid:
1) TYPE column is a drop down
2) VALUE column is editable column
3) TYPE column options are Keep and Change
4) Keep option makes associated cell of VALUE column non editable
5) Change option makes associated cell of VALUE column editable
6) As user changes selected option in TYPE column, editability of
VALUE cells change

TYPE  VALUE
  --
KEEP  1 (non editable)
CHANGE2 (editable)  

Thanks!

[flexcoders] notification to a non-instanciate object

2008-06-09 Thread y.mauron

Dear all, 

My question is a little bit frustrating as it seems to be very simple. 

I've got a TabNavigator and one of the tab content is a component
coming from a swc archive. From the tab number 1 I'd like to act on
the content of the tab number two (let's say the tab that contains my
swc component). When I try to do that my debugger states that the
targeted object is null. 

It seems to be conceivable, but how can I work around this situation ?
Any Idea ?

[flexcoders] Can Array or ArrayCollection be populated into ComboBox?

Hi, everyone!
In my PHP file, there is a function that returns an Array $user_array
the data in this Array is something like this:
[0] 
atclass = 1
sid = 3
ssname = Joe
[1] 
atclass = 1
sid = 4
ssname = Sam
[2] 
atclass = 1
sid = 5
ssname = Simth

And I want to add the `sid` and `ssname` into the ComboBox.
So in the flex, I use 'result' in the function to receive the data:

public ssProvider:Array;
...
gateway.call(cys.getStudents, new Responder(onResult,
onFault),atClass); //It gets the data from database
...
public function onResult(result:Array):void
{
ssProvider = result;
}
...
mx:ComboBox dataProvider={ssProvider}/

And it just display [object][object], nothing else

[flexcoders] AIR deployment on server

2008-06-09 Thread netdeep

I have a Flex app which needs to run on the server in the background.  I was 
thinking of 
turning into an AIR app since it really doesn't need to run on the browser.  
But how could I 
deploy this.  

I am sending my entire flex project as a .war file to deploy on the server and 
am using 
BlazeDS to work with some java backend code.  But all of the tutorials for AIR 
seem to 
assume some sort of manual install method and I just want to bundle it with my 
current 
project.  Is this possible?  And if so, how is this done?  

As a side note, I don't know if there is a separate AIR group or forum 
somewhere that might 
be a better place to ask about these things.  If you know of one, please let me 
know.

[flexcoders] Howto Create Flex Builder Custom Component folders?

[flexcoders] Alert.show - how to pass extra parameter to Alert event handler?

2008-06-09 Thread djohnson29

I have an alert popup with your basic ok / cancel functionality.  The
alert calls an event handler which receives a close event as a
parameter like so:

Alert.show(You have unsaved changed. Continue?  ,My popup,
Alert.OK | Alert.CANCEL, this, cancelEventHandler);

private function cancelEventHandler(event:CloseEvent):void{

  if(event.detail == Alert.OK){
// do whatever you need to do here. 
  }
  else{
 // cancel
  }


I want to be able to pass an additional parameter to the cancel event
handler.  Is there a way to do this?  

For example if I prompt the user to save changes, I may want to pass
in an ID value.

RES: [flexcoders] notification to a non-instanciate object

2008-06-09 Thread Luciano Manerich Junior

Hi,
 
its because the default instanciation of the objects (auto). its only
the tab that you have navegated into.
 
You may add a creationPolicy property in the tabnavigator to work
aroung this situation.
 
mx:TabNavigator creationPolicy=all

Assunto: [flexcoders] notification to a non-instanciate object



Dear all, 

My question is a little bit frustrating as it seems to be very simple. 

I've got a TabNavigator and one of the tab content is a component
coming from a swc archive. From the tab number 1 I'd like to act on
the content of the tab number two (let's say the tab that contains my
swc component). When I try to do that my debugger states that the
targeted object is null. 

It seems to be conceivable, but how can I work around this situation ?
Any Idea ?

Thanks in advance.

This is a general type socket error and it could be many reasons for it.

- Check server logs for errors
- set the fault handler for the HTTPService 
- use any sniffer to check the server response (you need to setup a

Subject: [flexcoders] Duplicating classes from the Flex framework /
DateChooser customization

Hi,

What is the appropriate approach to compile the Flex (3) ActionScript
sources?
Actually, my original problem is the following: I need to emphasize
specific days in a DateChooser control.

Alas, as of Flex 3.0.0, the DateChooser control does not offer this
functionality. Furthermore, the DateChooser control makes usage of
unsupported API/support classes such as mx.controls.CalendarLayout
through the use of private members/mx_internal namespace.
Consequently, I can hardly make use of these classes (since they don't
apply for the OOP open/closed principle) and I need another way to
achieve my goal.
As a workaround, I found that I could create alternate implementations
of the DateChooser/CalendarLayout classes, mainly by copying the
existing ones and modifying the appropriate methods. Then I started to
rename DateChooser/CalendarLayout to MyDateChooser/MyCalendarLayout
and replacing names (s/DateChooser/MyDateChooser/ 
s/CalendarLayout/MyCalendarLayout/) ; I even copied the entire
frameworks\projects\framework\src directory (from the Flex 3 SDK) to
my build path. The problem with this approach is that my
implementation seems somehow incomplete and is missing some graphical
data (invisible buttons, wrong colors, wrong size) when added to the
project.

Any hint on how I could gain correct graphics from my implementation?
Or is there a better way to achieve my DateChooser customization?

Thanks,
Regards

 Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Unload SWFLoader issues

 Hi guys,

 I have just today signed up with this mailing list after stumbling
 across an issue I cannot resolve! Seems to be a flaw with the
SWFLoader
 in Flex 3. Basically my problem is this, I have to create a youtube
 player for a client and am using the wrapper classes from martin
legris
 to aid me. All is working ok, I have a datagrid being populated by an
 array, and when a video is selected, the SWFLoader loads it into place
 as it should. The problem comes when selecting another video from the
 list, several things happen (or dont!), the loaded Youtube player
 disappears as if another one will be loaded into its place (the
desired
 effect) but nothing is loaded, also the sound from the original swf is
 still audible.

 Any suggestions or modifications to the code below would be most
 welcome. I have read that possibly using Loader as oppose to SWFLoader
 could be the way to go, or maybe Module Loader? I am ver new to flex
but
 not to actionscript and I seem to recall a similar problem once before
 but I am damned if I can remember how (or if) i resolved it.

 Anyway, I hope this hasn't been answered ages ago and if it has please
 accept my apologies. I hope I can be of some use to some of you in
 future postings!

Can't do that, data is coming from aspx. In fact the only way this
could work is to add info* to swf which data has to be loaded with the
swf itself. Then the Flash Player would read that, calculate the size
of data and add it to the preloader of the main swf. Once the whole
bunsh is downloaded, data would be there in the native format on the
root of the app. Am I dreaming?

* How to add this info is the question. It can't be through AS that's
for sure, because AS is not running until the app is loaded. Write in
the header of the swf? Write in the HTML embed directives?

[flexcoders] Re: Flex + WebORB for PHP, A very strage problem

I just came across this myself and figured out the problem.

PHP retrieved the data from my database and even though the entry in
the database was boolean PHP (Because it is a loosely typed language)
returned the entry as a string with the value of 0. When this was
returned, Flex coerced this string value to a boolean. As 0 is a non
empty string, Flex coerced it to true (Which is what it should do for
any non-empty string).

The Fix is to coerce the value to an int at the PHP end. For example:

$myObject-booleanField = (int)$row['booleanField'];

Now, when the number 0 comes in, Flex correctly coerces it to false.

  My suspicion is that you are getting the correct true and false data

  you'll need to add an if statement, like this:
  
  if (list[i].aircon == 'true') {

  else if (list[i].aircon == 'false') {

RE: [flexcoders] HELP change mouse pointer over text object

2008-06-09 Thread Tracy Spratt

This takes some combination of the following on the Text component. Try
them in that order:

mouseChildren=false

buttonMode=true

useHandCursor=true

Subject: [flexcoders] HELP change mouse pointer over text object

 

Hi all,

in the result list we use to use the linkButton to display the name of
the doc coming back in the rss. Problem was the button would either
extend into the next object to the right, r if we sized the button we
got the truncated text with ... at the end.

So as a workaround I make the rss url a text object. Now the problem
is we loose the pointer cursor and have the editable text cursor.

Does any have solution to either make a link button contain multiple
lines of text, or change the muse pointer on mouse over?

Thanks

Jeff

[flexcoders] Re: Flex Css Html Css

This is how I do it:

I create an empty component named RepeatedBackgroundBox.mxml:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:VBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=100%
height=100%

/mx:VBox


Next I create an AS file named RepeatedBackground.as:

/*
 RepeatedBackground

 Use this BorderSkin with backgroundImage

 Embed properties scaleGridTop, scaleGridBottom, scaleGridLeft, and
scaleGridRight do not work.
*/
package
{
 import flash.display.Bitmap;

 import flash.display.Graphics;
 import flash.display.Loader;
 import flash.events.Event;
 import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;

 import flash.net.URLRequest;

 import mx.controls.Image;
 import mx.core.BitmapAsset;
 import mx.graphics.RectangularDropShadow;
 import mx.skins.RectangularBorder;
 import mx.core.Application;
 import mx.core.UIComponent;

 public class RepeatedBackground extends RectangularBorder {

 private var tile:BitmapData;

 private var imgCls:Class;

 override protected function
updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number, unscaledHeight:Number):void {
 super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);

 // Use UIComponent to handle any container

 // Check if parent is valid
 // In some Application initializaton states this might be
false, I was getting an error
 if( this.parent != null ) {
 // The backgroundImage on the parent will become  so
we need to keep the class around
 // for every object updateDisplayList
 if( imgCls == null ) {
 var backgroundImage:Object = UIComponent(
this.parent ).getStyle( backgroundImage );
 if( backgroundImage != null  backgroundImage != 
) {
 imgCls = Class( backgroundImage );
 (this.parent as UIComponent).setStyle(
backgroundImage,  );
 }
 }
 // Do the actually bitmap filling here
 if( imgCls != null ) {
 try {
 // imgCls could be a symbol in a SWF and the
class will not work
 var background:BitmapAsset = BitmapAsset(new
imgCls());
 tile = background.bitmapData;

 var transform: Matrix = new Matrix();

 graphics.clear();
 graphics.beginBitmapFill(tile, transform, true);
 graphics.drawRect(0, 0, unscaledWidth,
unscaledHeight);
 } catch( e:TypeError ) {
 // Throw an custom error if imgCls is not a
valid type
 throw new Error( backgroundImage value is not a
valid image class );
 } finally {
 ;// Catch all just ignore
 }
 }
 }
 }
 }
}

Now, a CSS file with the RepeatedBackgroundBox definition:

RepeatedBackgroundBox
{
 paddingRight: 10;
 paddingLeft: 10;
 paddingTop: 5;
 borderSkin: ClassReference(RepeatedBackground);
 background-image: Embed(/assets/images/bg.gif);
}

Now all I have to do to use it is:

custom:RepeatedBackgroundBox
Other components here

[flexcoders] Enabling or disabling individual rows

2008-06-09 Thread kpjj31

I have a list of task items that need to be completed in order. Does 
anyone know if there is a way to enable and disable rows of a datagrid 
or a repeater based on weather or not an item in the array collection 
has a particular value. I really would like to avoid alerting the user 
when they skip over a task. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

 Maybe this will help:

 or

Re: [flexcoders] new to VO's, why won't this cast?

well are you getting this from a Database, if you are then you may be able to 
use the RemoteClass metadata?

[flexcoders] Listening for mainScreen changes in AIR

2008-06-09 Thread Daniel Gold

Are there any events raised when the mainScreen is changed in an AIR
application? I've noticed this happens if you're using Spaces in OS X and
therefore assume it happens when using similar virtual workspace
applications under Windows and Linux. For raising notification windows, etc,
I would like to know when the main screen change has occured. The
documentation states that no properties of the Screen class should be
cached, but that also means events should be raised so we know when changes
occur. Between two consecutive frames the mainScreen could change and I'd
like to make sure my AIR app behaves as expected.

Re: [flexcoders] new to VO's, why won't this cast?

i do get the employee list from a database, and I tried putting RemoteClass
metadata on the VO class with an alias- no luck- same error.

RE: [flexcoders] Creating Data Grid Columns Dynamically?

Classes can't be iterated for their properties (plan object can, but not
some class instance).  Iteration only works for dynamic properties.

 

ObjectUtil.getClassInfo will get the list of properties for you.

Greetings -

I need to construct data grid columns on the fly, ie build the table
from the data. WAs 
thinking I could make column class and that run a for each in loop
adding the columns as 
children to myGrid.columns (as it were). Doesn't work for a variety of
reasons.

Anyone here know how to do this? Sample code perhaps?

[flexcoders] Re: Enabling or disabling individual rows

2008-06-09 Thread Dmitri Girski

You can do it via custom ItemRenderers.

For each column you have to create IR and there check the condition.
If data meets the criteria - set enabled property of label or checkbox
or whatever is in the IR to false.

Cheers,
Dmitri.

 Subject: [flexcoders] HELP change mouse pointer over text object
 
  
 
 Hi all,
 
 in the result list we use to use the linkButton to display the name of
 the doc coming back in the rss. Problem was the button would either
 extend into the next object to the right, r if we sized the button we
 got the truncated text with ... at the end.
 
 So as a workaround I make the rss url a text object. Now the problem
 is we loose the pointer cursor and have the editable text cursor.
 
 Does any have solution to either make a link button contain multiple
 lines of text, or change the muse pointer on mouse over?
 
 Thanks

[flexcoders] Attaching custom data to events (while avoiding race condition)

2008-06-09 Thread robbarreca

Say I have two functions load() and handleComplete(event:Event). Right
now to get custom data to handleComplete I do something like this

private var someFlag:uint = 0;

function load() {
  loader.addEventListener(handleComplete);  
  someFlag = determineFlag();
  loader.loadSomeStuff();
}

function handleComplete(event:Event) {
  trace(someFlag);
}

But if I call this super fast, someFlag is gonna be wrong. I've seen a
method where you can add an anonymous function somehow, but I'm pretty
sure that even faced the same race condition problem. What is the
*proper* way to go about this?
