Re: [flexcoders] how can i read an excel file from my local system?

I recall that it can be done using the bytearray but I am not sure if  
that code was made public.

Normally you cannot access anything on the local client.  Since you  
say you have used HTTPService to do this, I will assume you are  
using one of the workarounds.

Hi All,

read and draw graphs?


I have used HTTPService to read text files, but this doesn't work

Re: [flexcoders] Project structure

2007-02-02 Thread Beverly Guillermo

Do you mean creating multiple mxml files that have mx:Application tag?  I
didn't think that was allowed?

I know that if I have components that I build using .mxml files I could just
use a package structure which allows me to put them in sub-folders and
access those components...

 Hi flexcoders,

I'd like to put many mxml applications in only one eclipse project.
The problem is that I can only put my applications in the main flex
folder. I don't like it because I want to structure my project and put
my applications in subfolders.
Is there a workaround using Flex Builder? I know I can use Flex Ant
tasks.

Rgds,

Olivier

RE: [flexcoders] AMFPHP Security

2007-01-17 Thread Beverly Guillermo
I was also researching AMFPHP and I found in AMFPHP's authentication
documentation that they recommend having the user authenticate themselves
via textfields from Flex and pass these credentials on to PHP service.
Also, sending the information encrypted via the use of SSL/TLS should also
help lock down security.
 
Those were my thoughts anyway... :)

Subject: [flexcoders] AMFPHP  Security



Is there any good information available on how to properly secure 
AMFPHP/Flex. It seems like a simple decompile of the swf file can 
expose a wealth of information which could allow a hacker to easily 
connect to the gateway and call any number of methods. Is there any 
information on available on how to lock down an AMFPHP/flex app 
properly? I have seen some discussions on the boad regarding FDS 
security, but not AMFPHP. Is AMFPHP inherently less secure OR more 
secure than any other data service technology. The app I am building 
requires as high a level of security as I can reasonably enable.

Thanks,

Kevin

Just wondering what the terminology means when you see the following

UITextField.as

//--
// percentWidth
//--

/**
* @copy mx.core.UIComponent#percentWidth
*/
public function get percentWidth():Number
{
return NaN;
}

/**
* @private
*/
public function set percentWidth(value:Number):void
{
}

Does that copy the functionality from UIComponent or is that something
that is to be done still?


 



Re: [flexcoders] source code management and FlexBuilder

2007-01-17 Thread Beverly Guillermo
For our projects, we generally leave the config files out of the
repository and have each developer use their own.  The config files
are independent of the application, which makes the projects easier to
migrate to other environments.

I have a custom Component (it is an edit/create form) that i'm

function on 

creationComplete=setup()

then i save some data, and change viewStates... 

then i pick a different item from a mx:Tree, and reload the
component, to edit the new data i've selected from my tree... and the
setup() function never runs, because the component has already been
created, so i'm wondering how i can get this function to run every time?

Re: [flexcoders] Svn Flex

2007-01-14 Thread Beverly Guillermo
Hi Kevin,

From my experience, there's no true way to unlink.  The only thing I
can think of is to do the following:

  $  svn delete html-templates
  $  svn commit
  $  svn export -r REV_with_last_changes html-templates

that should give you a clean version without the .svn directories.

Currently,I am using a mac for development, so all my tools are via the terminal command line andI use the flex2_sdk from Adobe's site and flexunit.zip from Adobe Labs' site. I've used the example that Darron Schall wrote up for use with FlexBuilder2 but tweaked it to compile via mxmlc. Please see the attached zipfile for specifics on the example code and my ant build parameters.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 and OS X

2006-04-27 Thread Beverly Guillermo



Hi Micheal,

I will answer with what I know for the moment... I am sure there are pretty good links and advice from others from this list. The short answer from me is Yes.

Flex is more of an SDK then an application that runs natively on a particular operating system and or hardware and with that said, the SDK runs on OSX, Linux, and Windows. From what I've seen, it uses Java to run on other platforms that aren't windows. So if you go to http://labs.adobe.com , you can download the SDK, read a few docs for using in OSX, and run a Flex2 application.

The only thing not available to us Mac developers is 'Flexbuilder' which is a really sweet IDE for Flex. It won't be out until later (maybe this summer).

Well, that's what I know...
Beverly
