[flexcoders] simple RSS reader can't read with one item
Hi, when I am trying to read a RSS link with one item node in it I do not get anything but when the RSS link has more then one item node all the nodes show up. Why can't I read when RSS has only one item? How do I solve this problem? here is how I am handling the the result event of the httpservice: private function userUpdateMyplate(event:ResultEvent):void { var f_Array:ArrayCollection = event.result.RDF.item as ArrayCollection; myDataGrid.dataProvider = f_Array; }
Re: [flexcoders] simple RSS reader can't read with one item
I think its because it doesn't know if its an item or a collection try the following.

Re: [flexcoders] Event Best Practices
As long as the component are oon the display list and the event bubbles property is set to true you can listen for the event in the main app. However you can catch the event in every component nested in the main app which parents the component that dispatched the event...

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Event Best Practices
I don't see the event mentioned, is it a custom event you created or an event in the framework? If it's a custom event, did you override the clone function?

[flexcoders] Singletons and Modules - Application domain problem
Hello guys, I'm facing a weird problem. I'm working with flex Modules that are tide mxml components . Using ModuleManager to load the modules. If I load using moduleInfo.load(ApplicationDomain.currentDomain) it loads fine but as I want to use the module as independent sub applications and they use the same class definitions that doens't play nice with singletons (ModelLocator) . When loading using moduleInfo.load() expecting that it uses it's own ApplicationDomain it loads, dispatches ModuleEvent.READY event but moduleEvent.module.factory.create() gives me null. I also tried moduleInfo.load(new ApplicationDomain(ApplicationDomain.currentDomain)) but this case dispatches a ModuleEvent.ERROR saying that file isn't a loadable module or something like that. An detail that might be important is that the module is marked to be optimized to my application in compilation. thanks in advance. -- Jhonny Everson

Are you using AMFChannel? AMFChannel uses NetConnection and NetConnection, by default, batches request that are close in a single POST. You can try to increase the time between requests or you can wait for a result/fault before sending the next request.

Now I'm also getting this warning in the console: warning: unable to bind to property 'vcMessage' on class 'Object' (class is not an IEventDispatcher) I made the whole object bindable so this warning shouldn't show. However, I get one or two of these every time I use the combobox. I'm not sure this is my problem or not because the first time I load the data into the combobox it works just fine.

[flexcoders] Controlling Datagrid with Keyboard : Tab and Spacebar
Hi All, I am struggling from a long time implementing tabbing in Datagrid in Flex 2. Is there any issue with controlling datagrid with keyboard? I have a datagrid with 5 columns: Radio Button Chekbox TextInput Label Label Label //i need both renderer and editor same rendererIsEditor = true; Now I have to implement tabbing such that, focus comes to radio button then in same row to checkbox then to textiput then goes to next row radio button. Also when I press spacebar radio button or checkbox should get selected. Tabbing is working fine but when i select any radio button with spacebar and then move on to next radio button and select it, the previous one is sometimes not unselected but doing trace() it says false, also sometimes more than one radio button gets selected, scrolling the grid produces same issue. I even checked the skin class that sets the radio button selected skin but it is selecting only one. Thanks Arpan Love Cricket? Check out live scores, photos, video highlights and more.

Re: [flexcoders] Hierarchical Tree Data
Hey Wesley, when does the hierarchy get setup? Do you use an orm that builds and nests all objects - then, I guess, send that entire strucutre off to flex through remote object (amf). What do you get in flex, a nested ArrayCollection of objects, with a nested ArrayCollection of objects, indefinitely until all levels are fulfilled?
