  I am retrieving datasets from a .NET webservice and binding the same to a

  the headers, the column is sorted ASC or DESC.
  
  Now, one column which I am binding to is originally a numeric column.  But 
  when it binds to the datagrid, it's data type becomes string.  Is it 
  possible that prior to binding the said column to the datagrid, I would be

You shouldn't need to unregister.  We use weak references.  I'm guessing that 
something else is preventing the module from unloading.  Try using the profiler

 when i call like

 StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations(css/font2.swf);

 and i call

 var fontList:array = Font.enumerateFonts(false);

 my fontList will be something like (font1,font2)

 Then when i go

 StyleManager.unloadStyleDeclarations(css/font1.swf);
 StyleManager.unloadStyleDeclarations(css/font2.swf);

 StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations(css/font3.swf);
 StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations(css/font4.swf);

 then

 var fontList:array = Font.enumerateFonts(false);

 my fontList is (font1,font2,font3,font4) not just (font3 and font4)

 I'm just wondering if there is anyway to do that

[flexcoders] Getting data out of a DataGrid...

/mx:DataGrid

How do I get the data out of the 6th column there?  I don't know the name of 
the field, so the 'event.itemRenderer.data.fieldName' won't work.  And 
something 'event.itemRenderer.data.(regCodeVO.validation_field)' won't work 
either...  So how do you get the data out of a DataGrid when you have the field 
you need stored in a String, instead of hard-coded into the program?

[flexcoders] Problem converting Flex app to AIR

2009-05-22 Thread reflexactions
Ok the original web based application uses a lot of RSL/modules launched from a 
central 'desktop'.

We converted this to AIR and can launch the application and display the 
'desktop'.

Our problem is when we try to pop up a window. These are TitleWindow's that 
originally were loaded via PopupManager.

We now instead create a NativeWindow and then use NativeWindow.stage.addChild() 
to add our TitleWindow.

Problem is that although the NativeWindow appears (can see it and also see it 
in teh TaskBar) it is empty, just a white background.

Actually checking the TitleWindow we found the constructor runs but initialize  
etc. never gets called.

Assume it something simple weve missed but don't know what any ideas.

[flexcoders] SWFLoader showing images originally off the 'canvas'

2009-05-22 Thread twcrone70
In Flex I am trying to show examples of SWFs that run on portable devices in 
FlashLite.  I am able to open them in a Flex control (HBox, TitleWindow etc.) 
and pass necessariy parameters but some images that are normally off the 
'canvas' or 'stage' for the flash SWFs are showing up outside the container 
that I am loading the SWFs into.

Setting heights and widths seem to constrain the main part of the swf but the 
other stuff still appears off ends but within the boundaries of the Flex app 
itself.

Any ideas how to 'crop' the Flash lite SWFs?

Thanks,

Additionally, utilizing a loop to locate an item can eat up cycles if the
list of codes gets to be large.  Granted that in the case of this example
looping 3 or even 10 items is likely not going to be an issue in anyway.
Something to think about if the application of this example is used
differently.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your patience.  I did write the import code for the ObjectUtil class.

But I still cannot get things properly.

In your code, you have this..

return ObjectUtil.numericC ompare(itemA[ TrackTotal. col], itemB[TrackTotal. 
col]);

my dataGrid's ID is MydataGrid

what does the col pertains to? the column id defined for the datagrid?

Here's my datagrid mxml

mx:DataGrid id=MydataGrid creationComplete=getGridData(); width=100% 
height=100% visible=false dataProvider={_xmlData.*} 
itemClick=getDataItems();
mx:columns
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=ID 
dataField=SupplierID width=30/
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Company Name 
dataField=CompanyName width=100/
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Contact Name 
dataField=ContactName  width=100/
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Contact Title 
dataField=ContactTitle width=50/
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=Address 
dataField=Address width=150/
/mx:columns
/mx:DataGrid

The SupplierID is the numeric column.

But when I tried 

private function sortNumericColumn(itemA:Object, itemB:Object): int
{
return ObjectUtil.numericCompare(itemA[MydataGrid.SupplierID], 
itemB[MydataGrid.SupplierID]);
}
in the function you gave, I am getting the error:

Access of possibly undefined property SupplierID through a reference with 
static type mx.controls:DataGrid

Thanks a bunch for your patience.

If they were pulled in, then it¹s more than likely that what ever you are

Re: [flexcoders] Re: How to optimise SWC to its minimal size?

You can use the 'externs' command-line option to the Flex compiler to
tell Flex to exclude specific classes - as long as you're sure that
your code _will_ have access to them at runtime.

parseFloat is a player API.  I think it will localize with the OS language.  
There might be third-party localizable parseFloat equivalents somewhere.

[flexcoders] Local compile issue on Flex Builder 3 on OSX Leopard

2009-05-22 Thread Ryan
I am trying to help my boss set up a Flex project which works fine for me. He 
is on Mac, I am on PC. He can't compile in our properties files, even though he 
has them on his computer.

I access these files via a compiler variable pointing to an absolute path on my 
machine, ie: C:\my\folder\etc\etc\locales\{locale}

Below is the info from my boss's setup: 
(-source-path=/Users/doe/Documents/code/amp/trunk/locales/src/main/resources/locales/{locale}
 is the bad part, everything else works fine!

Thanks!



Compiler argument:

-show-unused-type-selector-warnings=false -locale=en_US 
-source-path=/Users/doe/Documents/code/amp/trunk/locales/src/main/resources/locales/{locale};
 
-services=/Users/doe/Documents/code/amp/trunk/platform/platform-client/src/main/resources/services-config_LOCAL.xml
 -context-root=platform -default-background-color #FF

Error message
unable to open 
'/Users/doe/Documents/code/amp/trunk/locales/src/main/resources/locales/en_US;'

Test on OS:

$ cd 
/Users/doe/Documents/code/amp/trunk/locales/src/main/resources/locales/en_US
$ ls
platformResources.properties
$

So the path is valid per the OS. 



[flexcoders] Multi-column drop-in checkbox renderer

2009-05-22 Thread Richard Rodseth
I am creating a CheckBox item renderer (redacted code at the end of this
post). Using the static methods that return a ClassFactory lets me tell the
renderer which column it applies to, as follows:

itemRenderer={PermissionCheckBox.factory('columnName')}

The renderer dispatches a bubbling event, for which I have to attach a
listener using AS (or create a subclass of the grid that adds Event
metadata):

private function onCreationComplete(event:Event):void {


myGrid.addEventListener(ChangePermissionEvent.CHANGE_PERMISSION,
onPermissionChange, false,0,true);

}

So far, so good. What's the cleanest way to get the checkbox selected state
to bind to the property indicated by dataField (or columnName).

Do I have to resort to something like this:

http://techmytongue.blogspot.com/2009/04/reuse-itemrenderers-for-multiple.html

or go back to an inline renderer?

The effect I want is:
Imx:CheckBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
selected={data[this.columnName]} change=onChange(event) 

Thanks.

 Hi.

 I am quite new in Flex and would like to ask a simple

 I am retrieving datasets from a .NET webservice and binding
the same to a datagrid.  The datagrid comes with a feature that when you
click on any of the headers, the column is sorted ASC or DESC.

 Now, one column which I am binding to is originally a numeric
column.  But when it binds to the datagrid, it's data type becomes
string.  Is it possible that prior to binding the said column to the
datagrid, I would be able to convert it back to its numeric data taype? 
Since sorting the column in a string format would give a different
result as compared to sorting the same column in a numeric format.

 Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Ctrl click in combobox

 Until recently, I did not know that you could reset the combobox back to the 
 prompt value by ctrl-clicking the value in the combobox dropdown.  However, 
 as most people don't know that this is a possiblity with the combobox, I'm 
 trying to mimic this functionality by setting the selectedIndex to -1 if a 
 person clicks (without the ctrl key) the same value that is already selected.

 I have yet to find the selectedIndexChanged property change to anything 
 other than false when the change event fires, so I'm unable to use that 
 (same for selectedItemChanged).  I tried setting the item under the mouse 
 when itemRollOver fires to a property, then set it to null when 
 itemRollOut fires.  Then when the person clicks, I said if the selectedItem 
 == the value underneath the mouse during itemRollOver, set the selectedIndex 
 = -1, however, the itemRollOut seems to fire before the click event is fired. 
  I've also yet to find where the code is for the ctrl-left click, or what 
 causes that event to fire.


The code is in ListBase.as: the selectItem function (called from
mouseDownHandler).

// allow unselecting via ctrl-click
if (ctrlKey  selectedData[uid])
{
selectionChange = true;
clearSelected(transition);
}

Here's the solution.

 1.  Make a custom class, MyList.

public class MyList extends List
{
override protected function selectItem(item:IListItemRenderer,
shiftKey:Boolean, ctrlKey:Boolean,
transition:Boolean = true):Boolean
{
var index:int = itemRendererToIndex(item);

if (index == selectedIndex)
ctrlKey = true;

return super.selectItem(item, shiftKey, ctrlKey, transition);
}
}

 2.  Use this class as the dropdown in the ComboBox.

  mx:ComboBox id=cb prompt=-- select -- dataProvider={['1', '2', '3']}
dropdownFactory={new ClassFactory(MyList)} /

Tada!

If you intend to parse a string like 1.234,56, I think you'll have

Hmm, I often get problems like this when, for some reason, another instance of 
the debugger/player is running. Try making sure you are always closing each 
instance properly after running your program. Also check out your task manager 
to see if there are any running in the background.

Hopefully that helps. If not, hopefully another wiser can :)

The command-line debugger (fdb) listens for the player to connect on
port 7935. So on OS X you could run this command to see if another
instance is already listening:

lsof -i | grep 7935

Output:

java  5408 manish6u  IPv6 0x395ba24  0t0  TCP *:7935 (LISTEN)

That most likely is fdb. You can kill it using its PID:

kill -9 5408

I don't know if this'll work for Flex Builder though.

 If you intend to parse a string like 1.234,56, I think you'll have
 to run it through a NumberFormatter first (1234.56) before you send
 it to the parse function.

Re: [flexcoders] Multi-column drop-in checkbox renderer

2009-05-22 Thread Richard Rodseth
 In that case, I would expect my subclass of CheckBox to do the same. I've
added a super call as follows:

override public function set data(value:Object):void {
super.data = value;
_row = value as MyRow;
}

and set the dataField on the column.

Consider the following example from the documentation:

http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/cellrenderer_5.html

I added the Change button to change the underlying data. It only works if
I call refresh() on the collection. Is that expected? If so, then I might be
on the right track if I get the right incantation of rendererIsEditor,
dataField, editorDataField etc.

 *Subject:* [flexcoders] Multi-column drop-in checkbox renderer






  I am creating a CheckBox item renderer (redacted code at the end of this
 post). Using the static methods that return a ClassFactory lets me tell the
 renderer which column it applies to, as follows:

 itemRenderer={PermissionCheckBox.factory('columnName')}

 The renderer dispatches a bubbling event, for which I have to attach a
 listener using AS (or create a subclass of the grid that adds Event
 metadata):

 private function onCreationComplete(event:Event):void {


 myGrid.addEventListener(ChangePermissionEvent.CHANGE_PERMISSION,
 onPermissionChange, false,0,true);

 }

 So far, so good. What's the cleanest way to get the checkbox selected state
 to bind to the property indicated by dataField (or columnName).

 Do I have to resort to something like this:


 http://techmytongue.blogspot.com/2009/04/reuse-itemrenderers-for-multiple.html

 or go back to an inline renderer?

 The effect I want is:
 Imx:CheckBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
 selected={data[this.columnName]} change=onChange(event) 

 Thanks.

 Renderer-in-progress:

 ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
 mx:CheckBox xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
 label={columnName:String} change=onChange(event) 

 mx:Script
 ![CDATA[

 public var columnName:String;

 private var _row:MyRow;

 public static function factory(columnName:String):ClassFactory
 {
 var classFactory:ClassFactory = new
 ClassFactory(PermissionCheckBox);
 classFactory.properties = {columnName:columnName};
 return classFactory;
 }

 override public function set data(value:Object):void {
 _row = value as MyRow;
 }


 private function onChange(event:Event):void {
 dispatchEvent(ChangePermissionEvent.create(_row,
 columnName:String, this.selected));

That's not true. You can pass a string to NumberFormatter.

See this example:

 var nf:NumberFormatter = new NumberFormatter();

  nf.decimalSeparatorFrom = ,;
  nf.thousandsSeparatorFrom = .;
  nf.decimalSeparatorTo = .;
  nf.thousandsSeparatorTo = ;

  var s:String = nf.format(1.234,56);

into array. Something like,

static const PAYMENT_TYPE_AC:int = 0;

[flexcoders] Problem importing classes with D.eval

2009-05-22 Thread Alexandre Demeure
Hi,

I write you again because I haven't manage to use D.importClass(Label); 
However, by using personnal classes, I was able to indirectly create labels, 
here is
the code:
I have try to create a personal class which inerit of Label class
or which have a Label property. The two working examples show how I did :

Example 1 what it works :

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
 mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; 
creationComplete=init()
layout=vertical cornerRadius=0 alpha=1.0 backgroundGradientAlphas=[1.0,
1.0] backgroundGradientColors=[#EF0808, #F6E8E8] color=#22B21B
borderColor=#202FC1
 mx:Script
 ![CDATA[ 
 import r1.deval.D;
 public function init():void 
 {
 import maClasse;
 D.importClass(maClasse);
 D.eval(var M:maClasse = new maClasse(\XXX\) ; 
C_PM_P_2.addChild(M);,
Dyna_context);
 }
 ]]
 
 /mx:Script
/mx:Application

maClasse.as :

package 
{
import mx.controls.Label;
public class maClasse extends Label
{
public function maClasse(name:String)
{
super();
super.text = name;
}
}
}

Example 2 what it works (just maClasse changed) : 

maClasse.as :

package 
{
import mx.controls.Label;
public class maClasse
{
public var lab:Label;
public function maClasse(name:String)
{
super();
lab = new Label();
super.text = name;
}
}
}

_
These examples work pretty fine. No runtime error.
However it's still impossible to directly import and use a Label with D.eval,
following code fails at runtime:


The error message is :

Runtime Error: msg.rt.no.class [line:1]
at r1.deval.rt::CallExpr/getAny()
at r1.deval.rt::ExprStmt/exec()
at r1.deval.rt::Block/exec()

at Function/http://adobe.com/AS3/2006/builtin::apply()
at mx.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher2()
at mx.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()


_
We suspect a problem with namespace or something like that (Label is defined 
under a
specific namespace)
But we don't know how to import a namespace in D.eval neither how to use the
namespaceand neither if it's really the problem ;o)

Does anyone have an idea about that problem?

[flexcoders] AdvancedDataGrid Server Side Sorting

2009-05-22 Thread mutyonok
Hi. 
I have AdvancedDataGrid with server side pagination and sorting.

The thing I cannot implement is showing sort triangles in datagrid headers.

The only way i've found is manually listen SORT event and set collection.sort 
property of my dataProvider - but then when I change collection.source it 
causes collection.refresh() on my dataProvider's collection and it sorts again 
in Flex :(

So some fields sorted in wrong way (differently as I sorted them on server (in 
DB))

Please help me :)



[flexcoders] Dynamic Org Chart - Needed

2009-05-22 Thread caliventures
Hi.

New to flexcoders. Not a developer. Talking to a guy from Adobe who said I 
should post here. I'm trying to figure out how to create an Org Chart/Tree 
Chart app similar to academia.edu/geni.com.

Cristophe said that flex/actionscript would be the way to go, and said I might 
find resources/people here that I could talk to to figure this out.

Rather than bog the list with too much stuff if this isn't the right place, I'd 
rather talk offline with anybody that can/wants to help. I'm more than willing 
to add more information on this thread if it's the right thing to do!

The goal of this is to also potentially release this back to the open source 
community, as my need for this is kind of tangental to my targeted goal.

Thanks

[flexcoders] Filtering multiple conditions in an arraycollection

2009-05-22 Thread kaushal.shah05
I want to filter a datagrid by multiple criteria.   I would like to have 
several types of components (checkbox, slider, textfield, etc) to filter, each 
one 

set to filter a particular datafield (asset_status, serial, tagsee data 
structure) in the arraycollection.   

The filterfunction does not work.  When I click type in the textbox or check 
any checkboxes, it does not retreive the intended results.   My entire code is 
below.   

The data source structure from the httpservice is listed before the code.

[flexcoders] Vector issues when using child application domains

2009-05-22 Thread Gordon Hirsch
If I use a SWFLoader to load two sub-applications in child application 
domains (loadForCompatibility=false), and if each sub-application 
defines a type of the same name, Thing, then it doesn't seem possible 
to use the type Vector.Thing in both sub-applications. (The Thing type 
is *not* known to the parent application.)

The first sub-application can declare a Vector.Thing and add Thing 
objects to it, but if the second sub-app tries to do the same, a type 
error is thrown.

Is this a known limitation of Vector/sub-applications? Are there any 
known workarounds?

There's some code that demonstrates the problem attached to 
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1986. Here's an example of the 
stack trace I get:

[flexcoders] Tile and 100% width

2009-05-22 Thread Maciek Sakrejda
If I create a Tile element with a percent-based width (and leave the
height unset), it uses some weird method to determine the height, and
it's typically two to three times as tall as it needs to be. Any
suggestions for how to work around this? I'd like the tile to be 100%
the width of its parent container, but just tall enough to fit its
children.

 arrays and objects - something that is not seen in all languages.

 As for efficiency, I would probably go with static const int's (in lieu of
 enums) and use an array. This would require no iterating - just simple
 offset
 into array. Something like,

 static const PAYMENT_TYPE_AC:int = 0;
 static const PAYMENT_TYPE_RN:int = 1;
 static const PAYMENT_TYPE_CP:int = 2;
 static const PAYMENT_TYPE_CR:int = 3;

 static const PAYMENT_MESSAGES:Array =
 [
 Remember to reset the station address.,
 Remember to reset the station expiration date.,
 Remember to contact contractor to remove the certificates from this

 Remember to cancel the refund payment.

[flexcoders] FlexBuilder design-mode wierdness...

Ok, all of the sudden one of my components can't be rendered in 
Design Mode anymore...  I have no clue why...

Is there some sort of size-restriction?  Like, the length of the file 
can't be longer than a certain length or Design Mode won't 
work?  That's the only thing I can think of.

It's just this one file that won't render at all in Design Mode - no 
errors or anything, just a blank screen when I try to go into Design 
Mode to look at the file...

Anyone have any clue at all as to why it's suddenly doing this?

Subject: [flexcoders] Form validation in Flex?

 






Hi,

I have many forms that need do form validation.

Do you think if I can have a common Flex component to do all the form
validation.

Thanks for your help.

[flexcoders] Working with files

2009-05-22 Thread Cordova Aaron

I am trying to download a response from my server and then write that response 
out to a local file. But the local file is never complete. The amount of data 
I'm grabbing from the server can vary between a few K up to a couple megs. I am 
using a HTTPService call to request my data and then writing the file in my 
result function. I think that the data is not 100% transfered when the 
HTTPService is emitting the result event. The local file usualy varies from 26K 
lines of text to 56K lines and it is never 100%. In my result handler the code 
looks similar to this:


private function resultFunction(e:ResultEvent):void
{
  var data:String = e.result.toString();
  var localFile:File = 
File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath(response.xml);
  var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream;

  fileStream.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, localFileWritten);
  fileStream.openAsync(localFile, FileMode.WRITE);
  fileStream.writeUTFBytes(data);
 
  fileStream.close();
}

Should I be listening for a different event to know when e.result is done 
populating?
