Re: [flexcoders] Re: How to create a n * n grid dynamically (not datagrid)
I assume they're just like any other component. Instantiate them, set whatever fields you need, and call addChild(newComponent) on the container to which you want to add them. Put a Grid somewhere, put GridRows in your grid, GridItems in your GridRows, and your components into your GridItems. GridItem is a HBox though so if you want something else (like a Canvas or a VBox or whatever), add that as a child to your GridItem and put other components in there as you normally would. -Josh On Wed, Jun 18, 2008 at 3:27 PM, pbrendanc [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Josh McDonald [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Look into Grid, GridRow, etc. These can be created at run-time.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
Reading the arguments about this subject is pretty confusing. One reason for splitting the list is so that more people will use flex related lists. Another reason for splitting the lists is that there are too many posts in one list. The list is apparently stagnating (!) so the splitting strategy is intended to revive it's fortunes even though the list has a huge number of postings that aren't appreciably dropping off. In my experience flexcoders has to be the most successful list that I know. Some are focussing on the posting stats for the list as some indicator of the health of the flex community. I think we should also look at external factors with that regard. For example, when this list was first started flex information wasn't so easy to come by so it was always going to be the place to come (once you found out about it). These days flex info is everywhere - magazines/books/vide/online - so it's not so neccessary to automatically jump to flexcoders for help. Secondly, a lot of flexcoders members are now rather better than they were with flex so may not need to post so often. Lastly flexcoders are busy people so flexcoders may not be their daily priority in the way it used to be. The flex world has changed. So I think that there are a lot of things to consider. Until it was suggested in this thread that flexcoders was stagnant/draining members/too busy I had no idea there was a problem. Perhaps there isn't. One phenomenom that seems to be growing is that of obscure please for help where the subject and post content is poor. I think the FAQ would help. Anyway, I'm not convinced there's a need for panic or overly fast decisions. Is it just that the flex world is maturing? Paul

Re: [flexcoders] Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
I use Thunderbird for my Inbox management, don't know what I'd do without it, to be perfectly honest. I set up filter rules for every list I subscribe to, which looks for [flexcoders] in the subject for example, and automatically routes emails to the appropriate folder. If I want to flag a particular post as reference or to look into or to reply or whatever, I have colour-coded tags which all have 0-9 hotkeys, and with a single click that post is tagged. I don't bother deleting anything, cause I don't have to, which means it's all available as a reference if I need it. In fact I have filters that sort emails from newsletters, vendors, clients, colleagues, family, everything, and whatever the filter doesn't know what to do with goes into my Inbox. I get hundreds of emails a day, dozens not counting newsletters and lists. My Inbox gets maybe one or two a day. Initially you might spend a lot of time establishing filters, but after a time it manages itself, like training a spam algorithm. It also means that after seven years of list subscriptions my email folder is huge (3.7 GB), but the upside outweighs the downside. I'm not a big fan of online email services anyways. ___ Joseph Balderson, Flash Platform Developer | http://joeflash.ca Anatole Tartakovsky wrote: Josh, It is definitely up to flexcoders as a group to make these decision - not me for sure. I did suggest separate group on best practices and I do not think you can separate UI best practices in Front-end tool - but I might assume much. Enterprise in Flex is reasonably well defined - anything that is based on commercial LCDS + typical tasks for enterprises - portals integration, large team management, scalability, and whatever else. Basically people usually know if they are working in enterprise and would use their judgement. The same goes for 101 - people often know if they are within the first 6 month. 101 presumes that there is FAQ thread somewhere, and hopefully WiKi with repeated questions. It also gives Adobe better idea what new developers have problem with and they can make product more intuitive for new developers. As far as scaring people - my post clearly states that at this point new developers scare experienced ones instead of letting people work together. With smaller groups it is possible to get moderators. Take a look at weborb, every message you send gets to developers blackberry, but quite a few are answered by experienced developers that are in that group for quite some time. With smaller groups and defined target audience you can provide better targeted answers that would suite that community better. As far as better inbox management - I would love to hear about something that works - but I have not seen anything that would do 10 way split for me.

This would be a huge bonus, esp. given #3. Center. But for now how about we just allocate a page off of the opensource wiki. We can pick some moderators who can edit the page and I will get them added so they can take care of it. Happy to be added, drop me a note if you are not aware of my adobe.com ID (it's not @halliwells). 2) Some folks suggested that you either mark in the body or in the subject something that indicates what you're talking about. Seems reasonable. ... involved in the thread. The more people follow this convention, the more efficient it will become. I would say that trying to tag the subject line is probably a good idea to try and encourage - new users should pick it up if they stay, and it'll help the 'old hands' too. I wouldn't suggest rejecting posts that lack a tag or anything though, before anyone suggests that, and I'd not want the FAQ to try and define a definitive list either - just see what people use. 3) We can get aggressive on the moderation. Rather than just scanning for spam, moderators can actually look at the posts by new users and decide if they meet the general criteria for asking a question. If they don't, the moderator can reject the post and point the user to the forum FAQ which has posting guidelines. If the group agrees that we want to try and reduce first-post on-topic but pointless messages, *and the FAQ is updated* I'd have no qualms about pressing that big 'reject' button and sending the user a nice link. Maybe the group/Adobe could agree a boilerplate response. 4) We can update the flexcoders FAQ (which is actually linked at the bottom of every single post) to include the updated posting guidelines and remove the common questions section so that the forum FAQ is only about forum etiquette and the coding FAQ is about the actual problems. This is good separation. CookBook if it merits an article to itself, FAQ on .adobe.com if it's a few lines of code or non-code, and FAQ on Yahoo for using the group itself. If we're all on board, send those moderators to me and we can get things set up. And folks can start following the tagging convention instantly in the meantime. Again, assuming the group is OK with harsher(?) moderation, I'm happy to start doing it as soon as the editable FAQ is up. In the past I've occasionally made a post on my blog in answer to a question, and then pointed the thread there, and I've certainly seen others doing the same thing - if the group was really keen to do better(?) first-post moderation and didn't want to wait for the FAQ changes. -- Tom Chiverton, moderator This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP.

Is anyone against this idea independent of the argument of whether or not to split the list? As far as splitting lists, I still think if people want to propose potential new lists, they need to be much more explicit about what the list will be for. I'll take the enterprise example. Let's assume for a second it has only one correct meaning (which is an assumption I agree with, but many people disagree with me on that). Enterprise has become a buzzword with many different commonly understood meanings, and most of those meanings are vague. There's no way for everyone on the list to be sure that we're talking about the same thing unless someone explicitly spells out what we are talking about (I'm not going to because I'm against having a enterprise list given every way I know to interpret the word). And if we don't have a common understanding of the proposal we can't efficiently criticize/support/amend the proposal. I'm not saying there has to be a fine line separating the lists, but it should at least be a fuzzy line. Also, to Bjorn, that's a point I hadn't thought of. The idea of having an arch/concepts list might be interesting. The two questions I would have would be: 1) would the questions on this list have any connection to Flex other than the fact that the users code in Flex (I think it probably would) or would it just be piggybacking on the user base; 2) Will it avoid stratification of the user base (i.e. will it be practically accessible to users of all skill levels)? Lastly, I'm going to reiterate my opinion that we shouldn't separate the lists based on skill/level difficulty. The distinction is too fuzzy (Too much cross-posting and too much posting to the wrong list). Sometimes you don't know if you're question is advanced or not until you get the answer. I've had a few times where I've asked what I thought was a simple question and the response from Gordon was I talked to a guy on the player team...

Is anyone against this idea independent of the argument of whether or not to split the list? As far as splitting lists, I still think if people want to propose potential new lists, they need to be much more explicit about what the list will be for. I'll take the enterprise example. Let's assume for a second it has only one correct meaning (which is an assumption I agree with, but many people disagree with me on that). Enterprise has become a buzzword with many different commonly understood meanings, and most of those meanings are vague. There's no way for everyone on the list to be sure that we're talking about the same thing unless someone explicitly spells out what we are talking about (I'm not going to because I'm against having a enterprise list given every way I know to interpret the word). And if we don't have a common understanding of the proposal we can't efficiently criticize/support/amend the proposal. I'm not saying there has to be a fine line separating the lists, but it should at least be a fuzzy line. Also, to Bjorn, that's a point I hadn't thought of. The idea of having an arch/concepts list might be interesting. The two questions I would have would be: 1) would the questions on this list have any connection to Flex other than the fact that the users code in Flex (I think it probably would) or would it just be piggybacking on the user base; 2) Will it avoid stratification of the user base (i.e. will it be practically accessible to users of all skill levels)? Lastly, I'm going to reiterate my opinion that we shouldn't separate the lists based on skill/level difficulty. The distinction is too fuzzy (Too much cross-posting and too much posting to the wrong list). Sometimes you don't know if you're question is advanced or not until you get the answer. I've had a few times where I've asked what I thought was a simple question and the response from Gordon was I talked to a guy on the player team...

However, that's not really what I was stumped by, since I found that I could write a custom component(named MyTreeItemRenderer) which extends TreeItemRenderer(nothing to override, just to work around the could no resolve error), and it could be resolved of course. So here is my second try: mx:Tree width=100% height=100% id=tagTree dataProvider={myTags} change=handleTagSelection(event); mx:itemRenderer mx:Component mx:HBox mx:MyTreeItemRenderer /mx:MyTreeItemRenderer mx:Label text=[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mx:Label /mx:HBox /mx:Component /mx:itemRenderer /mx:Tree Now comes the really difficulties: I know I must assign values to some properties of MyTreeItemRenderer using information carried by data and listData, but what properties to assign value to? And what makes me even crazier is that I found neither listData and data was set(observed by overriding set listData and set data functions and find they were never called). Looking forward to seeing helpful hints. Thanks in advance.

[flexcoders] Problem with getting most recently inserted ArrayCollection item
After fixing an issue regarding where best to put an insert function call in my drag and drop function I now have another issue. It seems that it is simply not seeing the most recently dropped item. For instance, when I drop the very first item, it throws an error saying that 0 (The index of the item being dropped) is out of bounds. This error is thrown for every new item inserted afterward, when the second item is inserted it will say that 1 is out of bounds. Interestingly enough, updates to the ArrayCollection to change a value in that row will still function perfectly. It seems that the row is not inserted until the function is completely done, simply having something call a value from the new row will not work as it simply isn't in yet. I feel like this is a bit confusing so I'll go ahead and post my code complete with debug functions I wrote to try and figure this out: private function dragToOrders(event:DragEvent):void { 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 ++; orderDetailArray.itemUpdated(orderDetailArray[i].Qty); trace(Fire update statement on + i); tryUpdate(i); event.preventDefault(); return; } } trace(Inserted New Record in + i); tryInsert(i); } private function tryInsert(row:int):void { try { trace(Value of Product: + orderDetailArray[row].ProductID + was inserted at + row); } catch(ex:Error) { if(orderDetailArray.length 0) { trace(orderDetailArray[--row].ProductID); } trace(ex.toString()); trace(--\n + ex.getStackTrace() +\n+ --); } } private function tryUpdate(row:int):void { try { trace(Value of Product: + orderDetailArray[row].ProductID + was updated at + row); } catch(ex:Error) { if(orderDetailArray.length 0) { trace(orderDetailArray[row--].ProductID); } trace(ex.toString()); trace(--\n + ex.getStackTrace() +\n+ --); } } As usual, thanks in advance, any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.

[flexcoders] Allow negative x position of container child
This seems like it should be alot easier than I'm making it so thought I'd put it out here: Basically what I'd like to acheive is something like the following: mx:HBox horizontalScrollPolicy=off verticalScrollPolicy=off width=300 mx:Panel title=Panel 1 width=150 x=-150 / mx:Panel title=Panel 2 width=150 x=0 / mx:Panel title=Panel 3 width=150 x=150 / /mx:HBox Note that 'Panel 1' has an x position of negative 150 so, as the containing HBox is only 300 wide I'd like to see only panel's 2 and 3 visible and 1 is off to the left. However I can only get it to show panel 1 and panel 2 with panel 3 off to the right. The overall goal is to create a UI that allows the display of items 1 and 2 OR items 2 and 3 and the view will slide into the chosen formation. However I seem to be stuck at the first hurdle.

RE: [flexcoders] ColumnSet vs Multiple axes
Hi Richard, I think the issue is that your items are getting filtered out because, the min and max values calculated for the horizontal axis is getting bad.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: My Web Service with soap headers code no longer work with Flex 3
Looks to me like there's a problem with your namespaces in the bad request. I don't know much about soap headers, but where's that radarXML namespace coming from? The SOAP code in Flex 3 is stricter than Flex 2's, so besides a couple of bugs it behaves better than Flex 2's SOAP code, but often when migrating it will expose problems in your WSDLs or XSDs that appear to be bugs in Flex 3. It could be that there's something in your schema that is including the radarXML namespace for the outer authheader element, but your server isn't actually expecting that so it's complaining, and you were just lucky that flex 2's SOAP code didn't generate the request correctly. What's the server returning? A 500? If it's a SOAP fault, what does it say? One of the reasons you want to use Charles is that you can see the error codes when you get an error code from the server, whereas the browser hides the details from the Flash Player so they never make it back into Flex, often hiding very useful troubleshooting information. -Josh On Wed, Jun 18, 2008 at 11:46 PM, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So I downloaded Charles 3.2.1 to see what I'm getting.

And what makes me even crazier is that I found neither listData and data was set(observed by overriding set listData and set data functions and find they were never called). Looking forward to seeing helpful hints. Thanks in advance.

I have two states and possibility to jump between them. All works fine until one click inadvertently goes faster than the transition... then I get an already parented error on the addchild... To explain better: If I go from state a to state b and viceversa waiting the transition times no problem occurs... If I jump from state a to state b then back to state a without waiting the full time of the transition the already parented error occurs. from what I understood if you jump from one state to another in the middle of a transition the played effect gets stopped and the new one starts... shouldn't there be a similar mechanism for child adding/removing?

I don't know much about soap headers, but where's that radarXML namespace coming from? The SOAP code in Flex 3 is stricter than Flex 2's, so besides a couple of bugs it behaves better than Flex 2's SOAP code, but often when migrating it will expose problems in your WSDLs or XSDs that appear to be bugs in Flex 3. It could be that there's something in your schema that is including the radarXML namespace for the outer authheader element, but your server isn't actually expecting that so it's complaining, and you were just lucky that flex 2's SOAP code didn't generate the request correctly. What's the server returning? A 500? If it's a SOAP fault, what does it say? One of the reasons you want to use Charles is that you can see the error codes when you get an error code from the server, whereas the browser hides the details from the Flash Player so they never make it back into Flex, often hiding very useful troubleshooting information. -Josh On Wed, Jun 18, 2008 at 11:46 PM, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So I downloaded Charles 3.2.1 to see what I'm getting.

[flexcoders] Menu Styling corrupts menu separator and size
Hi All, I am trying to style my application menus but have run into problems when I use separators as menu items or set 'variableRowHeight' to true. My menu style is as follows: Menu { rollOverColor: #00; selectionColor: #00; backgroundColor: #161515; } When I emply this global style I have two problems with how the menu is drawn. 1. The menu separator is drawn as a double line or it has a shadow or something 2. If I set the 'variableRowHeight' property to true the menu is clipped at the bottom and the last item only partialy shows If I remove the style from my CSS it works fine, but does not meet the UI design and clipping issue is still present. However, if I remove my CSS entirly the menu does not get clipped, I must have some CSS class that is corrupting my menu style I tried to specify the separator class with a custom image, but again it is drawing a double line... I am stumped not sure what in my CSS could be conflicting. The only CSS styles that I can think could be affecting are: global { themeColor: #66; /* Text Styles */ color: #cc; fontStyle: normal; fontWeight: normal; fontSize: 10; fontFamily: Arial; letterSpacing: 1; textSelectedColor: #FF; textRollOverColor: #FF; textAlign: left; /* Modal window effect */ modalTransparency: 0.5; modalTransparencyBlur: 0; modalTransparencyColor: black; modalTransparencyDuration: 200; } /* Application Font */ @font-face { fontFamily: Arial; fontWeight: normal; fontStyle: normal; src: local(Arial); } Application { backgroundColor: #00; paddingBottom: 0; paddingTop: 0; paddingRight: 0; paddingLeft: 0; verticalGap: 0; horizontalGap: 0; } Any help is much appreciated!

I'm just throwing ideas around to help find a solution to my issue.

[flexcoders] Possible to post an array with HTTPService?
Can you do something like var params:Object = new Object(); params.name=myNameVar; params.hobbies=myArrayVar; service.send(params); Seems on the PHP end it just takes the last value in the hobbies array. When I view this in service capture, it shows name='Rick' hobbies='needlework' hobbies='curling' hobbies=golf' and doing var_dump($_POST) you just see array(2) { [namel]= string(4) Rick [hobbies]= string(4) golf } Only option to convert array to csv and convert that string back to array on php's end?

Let's call it ComboTreeItemRenderer, and to simplify the matters, assume it is composed of a TreeItemRenderer and a Label. This is my first try: mx:Tree width=100% height=100% id=tagTree dataProvider={myTags} change=handleTagSelection(event); mx:itemRenderer mx:Component mx:HBox mx:TreeItemRenderer /mx:TreeItemRenderer mx:Label text=[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mx:Label /mx:HBox /mx:Component /mx:itemRenderer /mx:Tree And the first error I met: Could not resolve mx:TreeItemRenderer to a component implementation. I don't believe TreeItemRenderer can not be used in mxml coding, so I guess I was just not coding in the right way. But what's the right way then? However, that's not really what I was stumped by, since I found that I could write a custom component(named MyTreeItemRenderer) which extends TreeItemRenderer(nothing to override, just to work around the could no resolve error), and it could be resolved of course. So here is my second try: mx:Tree width=100% height=100% id=tagTree dataProvider={myTags} change=handleTagSelection(event); mx:itemRenderer mx:Component mx:HBox mx:MyTreeItemRenderer /mx:MyTreeItemRenderer mx:Label text=[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mx:Label /mx:HBox /mx:Component /mx:itemRenderer /mx:Tree Now comes the really difficulties: I know I must assign values to some properties of MyTreeItemRenderer using information carried by data and listData, but what properties to assign value to? And what makes me even crazier is that I found neither listData and data was set(observed by overriding set listData and set data functions and find they were never called). Looking forward to seeing helpful hints. Thanks in advance.

[flexcoders] Re: ColumnSet vs Multiple axes
Hi Richard, For a work-around, first give each ColumnSeries an id. If you also want to change the z-order, give the ColumnSet an id as well. Then, on CreationComplete, do something like this to offset the columns and/or change the depth. private function onCreationComplete(): void { // offset columns myFirstColumnSeries.move(-8,0); mySecondColumnSeries.move(myFirstColumnSeries.x+16,0); // change depth (z-order) myColumnSet.swapChildren(myFirstColumnSeries,mySecondColumnSeries); } -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Richard Rodseth [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I sent code to Sunil and Sangavi demonstrating the bug. Now I'm looking for a workaround. If two ColumnSeries (different date axes) are displayed at the same location, I would like to be able to see both columns clearly, eg. through stroke/fill/alpha choices or by offsetting them somehow to simulate a cluster. Say the colors are red and green. With a low alpha value and red and green strokes, I can at least ensure that there's a visible red or green line at the top of the column, but one of the columns is always on top in the z-order, regardless of column height.

[flexcoders] PrintJob strange behavior
I was wondering why the following occurs, if anyone has an idea? I have a PrintJob very similar to the way the Flex 3 Cookbook describes how to add the Job to the main app. parentApp.addChild(printView); The problem I see, is that if the printView is any MXML component which holds my labels and printGrid, upon adding it to the parentApp using the function call above, all my fields get reinitialized after this method call, and it doesn't matter. scope either. For example if I have a MXML file call FormTemplate.mxml with my labels and printGrid to print and define it like printview:FormTemplate.mxml = new FormTemplate.mxml(), then add my data to the labels and printGrid upon the call to add to parent app.these fields get re-initialized Yet if I define, any variables of the main types below, all my data is retained after the function call. So its like subclasses get reininialized, but direct parents do not. Below types retain there values protected var printDataGrid:PrintDataGrid = null; protected var label1:Label = null;

[flexcoders] AIR/LCDS/EJB Authentication lost when a different RTPM worker thread is used
Hi! I am setting up the security for Flex to work together with the EJB 3 Container security. The user should login within the AIR application via a custom login screen and the authentication should be verified against the configured JBoss login module. For all further ds requests the authorization check should be done for every EJB method by the EJB container. All EJB methods have a @javax.annotation.security.RolesAllowed(...) anotation. The EJBs are called within an assembler. In principle the process works until the EJB is called by a new RTPM worker thread. Within the new RTPM thread the principal is null and the authorization fails. I have setup the security as follows: * The custom security and tomcat valve have been setup as described in the lcds docu (copy jars, copy context.xml) * The services-config.xml contains the following part: ... security login-command class=flex.messaging.security.TomcatLoginCommand server=all / security-constraint id=basic-read-access auth-methodCustom/auth-method roles roleFLEX/role /roles /security-constraint /security ... * The data-management-config.xml contains the following part: destination id=id security security-constraint ref=basic-read-access/ /security adapter ref=java-dao / ... * The login is performed within the mxml as follows: var token:AsyncToken = ds.connect(); token.addResponder( new AsyncResponder( function():void { if (ds.connected) { var channelSet : ChannelSet = ds.channelSet; var token : AsyncToken = channelSet.login(user, pwd); token.addResponder(new AsyncResponder ( function(event:ResultEvent, token:Object=null):void { switch(event.result) { case success: Alert.show(Login success); ... I get the success result and when the first ejb calls are performed from the data service assembler the prinicipal is set and the authorization works. But if the EJB is called within another RTPM worker thread no principal is set and the authorization fails. How can I share the security login context over more than one worker thread?

[flexcoders] Parent column of ItemRenderer
Hi, I have a custom item renderer for an advanced data grid. My data grid has several columns sharing the same renderer. Is there a way for the renderer to tell which column it belongs to during runtime?

[flexcoders] Re: Flexbuilder 3 Out of Memory Error
So I need to revive this thread. The original problem is that a co- worker was getting an Out of Memory error in FB3 (See post and response from Sherif Abdou below). Now I have the same problem.

Jason, It might us help if you add log of the message. Extra info might be available via Window-Show View-Other-PDE Runtime-Show Errors.

There are 2 types of crossposting people - the ones who did not receive the answer in the previous forum and the ones who cross post from the get go. The first type is OK - moderator or users can point them to a different forum. There are periods in flexcomponents that every second message gets RTFM or go to flexcoders responses. The second type needs some discipline. Here is what moderators and users do - saying this is not appropriate forum, remove the message to make life easier for the rest, giving warning bans for a day - however harsh it sounds, it works. The goal is to service the community - not to do somebodies homework. If the forums are speedy and high quality the crossposting ceases.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
I think in dividing a list bursting at the seams, it seems, with too many diverse posts, that we don't forget that other list from which many migrated from when Flex 2/AS3 came out:Flashcoders. Flashcoders (and the newer Flash_Tiger) serves as a wellspring of AS3/Flash API info, so I wonder how practical an ActionscriptCoders list would be. And general UI design is also covered in some extent in Flashcoders, since they deal with many of the same issues. People make announcements related to open source projects all the time, and the rest should be for blogs, which is more a broadcast medium than lists, so the FlexAnnouncements list might not do so well. How about this: Existing - FlashCoders - FlashNewbie - FlashTiger - FlexCoders - FlexComponents - ApolloCoders (which would do well to change its name ;) - FlexJobs New (proposed) - FlexNewbies - FlexEnterprise ...and we see how they do before branching any more. ___ Joseph Balderson, Developer | http://joeflash.ca | 705-466-6345 Bjorn Schultheiss wrote: Existing - FlexCoders - FlexComponents - ApolloCoders - FlexJobs New - EnterpriseFlex - FlexUIDesign - FlexAnnouncements - ActionscriptCoders ? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Bjorn Schultheiss [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 1. 101 Is creating a new group for this necessary or is flexcoders already handling this? 2.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Splitting FlexCoders in smaller, focused groups
From the perspective of someone who in his opinion is only just edging into the advanced category in Flex, I've been a lurker for many years but only just now gradually changing to a more active status on the list. To me, the volume of emails to the list was intimidating, until I decided to manage my lists a little better through Thunderbird filtering, and be disciplined about the time I take every day to review the list, so it doesn't impact my productivity, much like I do every day with the MXNA. So I'm not convinced that splitting up the list simply to make things more efficient and the volume less intimidating for some people outweighs the potential risks. I agree with Tim Hoff (16/06/2008 10:53 PM) -- my concern is less for new users and lurkers than it is for frequent posters who are the lifeblood of this community, having to divide their precious attention from one list to however-many, which would dilute the quality of all lists, and could ultimately lead to abandonment by regular users on all lists. A community such as this must be a delicate balance between questions and answers, new users and advanced users, lurkers and frequent contributors. My concern is that for many, the formula works, our numbers are steady, and there is still a huge number of A-list participation. In attempting to improve the list, we could be killing it -- so we need to be very sure of our data before proceeding IMO. A FAQ would be very welcome, as would Doug's recommendation for most commonly asked threads, as would tags, regardless of what the decision is on the split.

This would be my request, and my recommendation. In addition, we could even include in the FAQ some post management strategies, such as filtering, tagging and colour-coding to help users manage the flow.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: My Web Service with soap headers code no longer work with Flex 3
Mark - If you have useProxy = true . then you would be using Flash Proxy/BlazeDS. Just flipping the bit isn't going to do anything for you. As per your example. What you see is the effect of the changes in the RPC bits in the frameworks (2.0.1 vs. 3.0). So. again - what you see is what I would expect. With regard to the crossdomain - the name is misleading with the addition of meta-policy filters. The authorization elements apply to 'all' Flash clients. on the same domain or not.

Running the code from 2.0.1 all is fine. But with 3.0 here's what I'm getting. soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/; xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; soap:Body soap:Fault faultcodesoap:Server/faultcode faultstringServer was unable to process request. --gt; Object reference not set to an instance of an object./faultstring detail / /soap:Fault /soap:Body /soap:Envelope Under the Request top tab and XML Text bottom tab there's some differences: !-- From 2.0.1 GOOD -- SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP- ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/; xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; SOAP-ENV:Header AuthHeader xmlns=http://tempuri.org/; UserName admin /UserName Password admin /Password /AuthHeader /SOAP-ENV:Header SOAP-ENV:Body PullXML xmlns=http://tempuri.org/; / /SOAP-ENV:Body /SOAP-ENV:Envelope !-- From 3.0 BAD -- SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP- ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/; xmlns:s=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; SOAP-ENV:Header ns0:AuthHeader xmlns=http://tempuri.org/; xmlns:ns0=http://radar.us.na.ey.net/RadarXML.asmx; UserName admin /UserName Password admin /Password /ns0:AuthHeader /SOAP-ENV:Header SOAP-ENV:Body s0:PullXML xmlns:s0=http://tempuri.org/; / /SOAP-ENV:Body /SOAP-ENV:Envelope Another point to mention is that the swf and the wsdl sit in the same direcory on the server so a crossdomain file isn't necessary. But again, I can't get this to rum from Flex Builder. I also tested this with useProxy set to true and false. Setting it to false gives the same response, seting it to true shoot off new errors. It sounds like from what Rick was saying this is not an issue with the Flash Player as I'm using 9.0.124. This is an issue with Flex 3.0, is that correct? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com , Rick Winscot [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tracy - actually, you are right on the money. The Authorization header was blocked and then re-instated in 9.0.124. You can still work around the issue if you compile in Flex 2.0.1 since the RPC bits are still intact there. however - in 3.0 they have changed. From the 3.0.x Flex SDK - AbstractWebService.as The username and password to authenticate a user when accessing the webservice. These will be passed as part of the HTTP Authorization header from the proxy to the endpoint. If useProxy is false this property will be ignored. There is also the issue of allowing the header from your crossdomain file. http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403184 Rick Winscot From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com ] On Behalf Of Mark Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2008 9:34 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: My Web Service with soap headers code no longer work with Flex 3 HI, I guess what I'm not understanding is the fact that when I run this code from Flex Builder 2 it works, but when I run it out of FB 3 it doesn't.

[flexcoders] Diagonal (hatched) fill
anyone know whether there is built in support for a fill containing diagonal lines? I want to have a stacked bar chart with the upper portion of the stack being hatched. Any clues? I can't find anything. Thx
