Re: [flexcoders] Barcode scanning with pda (MC50 for instance)
Sounds like a fun little project... what programming language were you thinking of using for interfacing with the Symbol scanner? I'm guessing you don't care about web security as this sounds like it's a local application so you'll be able to create a socket connection to a program listening on socket service running on the local pc. I believe if you run the swf locally, execute it from file:c/// or http://localhost, you'll be able to connect to a local service without further client side configuration. There are actually a few ways to do this. 1. Binary Sockets 2. XML Sockets 3. A local RTMP service. 4. AMF polling Option 3 is by far the best and for that there a few options for you. 1. Red5 - Java 2. WebORB - .NET 3. FDS Express - Java You could also technically use an AMF solution and polling but you'd definately lose points on the coolness factor. I'd want the bi-di communication that RTMP offers for interfacing with a device. My gut tells me that it would be easier to program against an RTMP service than to use AMF and polling. (You won't have to manage a stack in the service code.) You're probably locked into using symbol scanners... but I remembered Renaun did some really kewl stuff with a webcam barcode reader you may also want to have a peak @... as a kewl alternative... http://renaun.com/blog/?p=33 On 5/29/07, amigo_fd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, any ideas on how to communicate with the built in barcode scanner on a device like the Symbol MC50 ?

When I convert to XML result me something like:

The problem is this XStream lib is for Java, not for flex.

Hey Evan... do you think it would it be possible to post a simple example of
this?
It would be used by quite a few people I would imagine.

In the application that I'm developing, I do use the onbeforeunload

being worked on, and return an error message for a JS alert if it

concerns you can preemptively pop up an alert and ask them if they
really want to quit, while in the background doing whatever AS stuff
you want.

Take for instance you want to save user preferences to a local

subsequent

Has this been tested and confirmed by anyone?

Julien,
Not sure what you're really trying to do here. A bit more of a
description would be useful. I'll take a shot anyway.
I'm going to guess that you've got your application running in a
browser. As such, you've got a couple options.
First, and most obviously, you could have a close button in your
application which logs you out or ends the chat or whatever. Just
leech off of that event, and away you go.
Secondly, if you want to try to capture the closing of the browser
window, there's a javascript event that you'll want to capture and tie
it to a method in your application through the ExternalInterface.
Here's a quick snippet of something similar to what I use:
[Javascript]
window.onbeforeunload = browserClosing;
function browserClosing(event_)
{
getSWF(MyTestApp).theBrowserIsClosing();
}
// Gets a reference to the specified SWF file by checking which
browser is
// being used and using the appropriate JavaScript.
function getSWF(movieName)
{
if (navigator.appName.indexOf(Microsoft) != -1)
return window[movieName];
else
return document[movieName];
}
[/Javascript]
[MXML]
mx:Application ... creationComplete=load();
Script![CDATA[
private function load():void
{
if(ExternalInterface.available)
{
try
{
ExternalInterface.addCallback(theBrowserIsClosing,
theBrowserIsClosingHandler);
}
catch(e:Error){}
}
}
private function theBrowserIsClosingHandler():String
{
//Do whatever needs to be done here.
}
]]/Script
/mx:Application
[/MXML]
When your user hits the browser's close button, the onbeforeunload
event will fire calling the javascript method 'browserClose' which in
turn will call the 'theBrowserIsClosing' method in your application.
Hope that gets you pointed in the right direction. If not, be a bit
more specific about what you're trying to do.

Re: [flexcoders] Col chart will not display a single column, need at least two - bug? (Flex 2.01)
This is a pretty common problem people run into...
When you do an xml get from a service... if you get back 2 or more elements
it will be created as an array in AS2/AS3.
But when that same service returns one element it will be deserialized as a
single AS2/AS3 OBJECT.
Import mx.utils.ArrayUtil and then run the result through ArrayUtil.toArray()
first... like this:
mx:ColumnChart
dataProvider={ArrayUtil.toArray(
httpGetYearlyPatentStats.lastResult.rsp.statistic)}

Yes.. I think what you want to do is possible. However... I believe Modules are what you're really after. The browsers cache will store the shell that you use to load modules if it hasn't changed.

Re: [flexcoders] RPC Pro's and Cons
Use AMF. http://www.jamesward.org/census/ AMF is much faster. WebORB is cheaper than FDS and has more features. We've used the current version of WebORB it works nice. For 10K/socket WebORB for .NET Enterprise supports AMF3 RemoteObjects, RTMP data pub/sub as well as Media Streaming. Adobe's FDS is 20K/phyical socket and I think FMS(Media Streaming) is like 5K / box? (You'd have to contact Adobe sales for the pricing for the edge edition of FMS which would be the equivalent to WebORB's unlimited Media Streaming connection model.) If you're just looking for RemoteObject support then there''s WebORB Pro for 2K / phsyical. WebORB Enterprise/Professional doesn't support Java/ColdFusion however. This was done on purpose to stay out of Adobe's FDS Java space. If you go with Java you need FDS. Can get a trail version here. http://www.themidnightcoders.com/weborb/ Incidentally the developer mode (which is the default trial mode if you install the trail) allows 5 IP addresses per iisreset which is great for deploying to dev and test.

auto scroll to the very bottom, anytime there is new Text added. I know
the Property name that I must change, but I need to find out how to make
the Dispatched Event, get disseminated across the application, to the
Debug Window control. I know I could simple listen for the change
event locally to the DebugWindow Control, but I need to find out how to
trigger this manually.
Could any of you help me out regarding this?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer,

RE: [flexcoders] Cairngorm ServiceLocator
Oops wrong key...
The code is opensource so you can see how it works... here's the call it
makes. (This is cairngorm v2)
/**
* Return the WebService for the given service id.
* @param serviceId the service id.
* @return the RemoteObject.
*/
public function getWebService( serviceId : String ) : WebService
{
return WebService( getServiceForId( serviceId ) );
}
/**
* Return the service with the given id.
* @param serviceId the id of the service to return.
* @return the service.
*/
private function getServiceForId( serviceId : String ) : Object
{
if ( this[ serviceId ] == null )
{
throw new CairngormError(
CairngormMessageCodes.NO_SERVICE_FOUND, serviceId );
}
return this[ serviceId ];
}
And when you look at the code... it grabs the instance of your service
from the ServiceLocator.mxml file.
For example:
YourServiceLocatorSubClass.getInstance().loginService; which equals
this[ loginService ] which equals this.loginService.
It's just a fancy way of saying this.loginSevice where this is
YourServiceLocatorSubClass.
You used to be able to simply include the cairngorm framework code and
step through it... it's a little trickier now that they're using
resource bundles.
The ServiceLocator class is a singleton as well. You will only EVER
have one in your application so even though you are creating a subclass
as soon as you call getInstance() you will get the only instance there
is in your application. If you had two Services.mxml files
(Service1.mxml and Services2.mxml) in your app the last one created
would be the one returned by ServiceLocator.getInstance();
Hope that helps.
p.s. Is it true that Bell Canada has been using Flex since it was
Royale? I used to live in Calgary so just curious.

Re: [flexcoders] Cairngorm ServiceLocator
All you statements make sense... the only missing piece is the static
instance for a singleton. By subclassing the singleton ServiceLocator you
gain the static getInstance() method. Your subclass will now be a reference
to a static / global variable called instance contained within the
ServiceLocator class. When you call getInstance() you'll get a reference to
your ServiceLocator implementation. You can see how this works by putting a
breakpoint on the ServiceLocator constructor. If you watch the instance
variable you'll see that it's your own ServiceLocator class implementation.
The Singleton pattern used here is to enforce that you only ever want one
ServiceLocator in your application. (One place to get services.)
I understand that you'd like to call
MyFunkyServiceLocator.getInstance().getService(serviceName)
but static methods aren't inherited.

Hey All,
Re: Flex at Bell
I'm not sure about everyone else; my team has only just started getting

The part I don't understand though, is the Cairngorm 2.1 Store example
shows retrieving the service like this:
ServiceLocator.getInstance().getWebService(myService);
However, all of the services are configured in:
*MyFunkyServiceLocator.mxml:*
cairngorm:ServiceLocator … /
mx:WebService id=myService /
/cairngorm:ServiceLocator
Does that not make MyFunkyServiceLocator a subclass of
com.adobe.cairngorm.business.ServiceLocator?
Why, if I define a parameter in an MXML file is it available to the parent
class via this? myService shouldn't (to me) belong to ServiceLocator, it
should belong to MyFunkyServiceLocator.

Re: [flexcoders] WebOrb for Rails
Ahh man, you're off here but it is nothing but an opinion from both of us. Your opinions are based on speculation. Mine are based on facts. Competition helps the technology thrive. A lot of people in the community stated the Adobe merger took the competition out of the market due to overlapping technology (Fireworks-Photoshop, DW-Go Live, etc). Now, unless WebORB is said to NEVER overlap with the technologies Adobe is implementing then I will understand. If not, there is overlap. Oh yeah, you might want to change .NET to YES and YES according to Allen. I don't know if Adobe is working on one or not but I don't see why they wouldn't. There is no overlap. WebORB is doing this on purpose to stay out of Adobe's space. Adobe is not doing a .NET version... Allen is mistaken. So, a question for you: if you build a product and someone else builds the same product, is that competition? I say yes. Is Fluourine a competitor to Adobe's $900 (or whatever it is) .NET implementation? Uhyeah. :-) Adobe doesn't have a .NET implementation and is not creating one. Disclaimer: I'm not here to argue. From a business point of view, I just don't agree with you Clint and, seemingly, Adobe doesn't either (based on your comment about Adobe being uncomfortable). The main premise for your argument is that Adobe is creating a .NET implementation. They are not. WebORB is not competing in the same space as Adobe's FDS. It complements the same space.

When there are Flex jobs, there will be Flex coders taking those jobs. The metrics I used for Perl/Java/Flex are not perfect but I have found this method to be very accurate in the past to predicting trends in the market. Given Perl and Java are both incumbent programming languages, the odds are stacked against Flex which is really a programming model/platform rather than a language but I wanted to go up against the languages on an even basis to see where Flex stacks up. The results are encouraging: 1. How many hits are there on Google:Perl: 195MMJava: 551MM (Winner)Flex: 74MM2.

The usual response: In the root of the web server is not enough for non-experts. Include an example path for, say the default integrated Flex 1.5 install, one for a default Tomcat install, and one for a default IIS install. I figured mine out by putting a full access crossdomain file in every possible folder until my call worked, then deleting them until I broke it again. This showed me the right place.

This particular crossdomain.xml file needs to permit access to use low/high ports for inbound connections. It is identical to the process needed to support XMLSocket servers. The use of crossdomain policy files prevents Flash/Flex clients from abusing other peoples servers. As permission is delegated to the server owner, they can decide what ports Flash Player can connect to. Example: cross-domain-policy allow-access-from domain=* to-ports=507 / allow-access-from domain=*.foo.com to-ports=507,516 / allow-access-from domain=*.bar.com to-ports=516-523 / allow-access-from domain=www.foo.com to-ports=507,516-523 / allow-access-from domain=www.bar.com to-ports=* / /cross-domain-policy I put together this small site on crossdomain policy files.

Set the initial memory pool to 300+ Megs and the Max (depending on how much ram you have...) to 512 MegsThat should work for running the samples.On 7/29/06, RBullotta [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's a weird one - when attempting to run the samples provided with FDS Express 2.0, the first sample app I attempt to load (and therefore compile) works fine, but subsequent ones crash with a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError on the compile.

Re: [flexcoders] F2.0 final - Possbile bug with PopUpButton and PopUpMenuButton
I'm noticing this behavior as well... (No. 2) but in PopUpButton.Has this bug been filed? Is there a workaround?On 7/3/06,

thanks that worked ;)ok thats the PopUpButton partially fixed... now for PopUpMenuButtonI'm gonna rephrase the PopUpMenuButton problem I mentioned above...
When I first open the menu... I'm accessing the root menu... When I hover over one of those items for the time then move my mouse over another item in root menu ( not sub menus ). The menu closes on it's own. If I redo all of this again but this time I go into sub menus and then hover over the parent or root menu of the sub menu I just entered into... the menu also closes on it's own.
There hope that is explained better :pOn 03/07/06, Benoit Hediard

the itemClick event gets dispatched twice. it just pops with with 2 Alert

an item for the first time works fine... but soon as I hover over another
menu item in the main level... the menu closes automatically and also if I Hover
over an item that is a sub menu I can keep going in and in until there are
no more children... or I could just go in once... and then soon as I hover over
another item... again the menu just closes. Both times this is without click on

Re: [flexcoders] Python / Flex solution
Umm... if the data is read-write to the server (which I'm assuming it is since you asked about fds)I'd use value objects and a webservce.The closest thing I've seen to an amf solution is Flashticle and I don't think they've upgraded to AMF3 yet. Technically the AMF3 spec isn't out till sometime this fall so you might look for a Python AMF3 implementation sometime then? Unless someone reverse engineers the protocol... *laughs* I just did a search for who I though might reveng it... Kevin Langdon... and yup... he's done it so who knows... an am3 solution for python might be around the corner. But for now... I'm pretty sure you should go with passing objects via a web service. Hope that helps.On 7/22/06, matt wicks [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, What would any python expert out there advise as the best solution for integrating Flex with Python?

Re: [flexcoders] ASP.NET and Flex2
1. Is it necessary for me to use FDS to send and return data to the flex clients and what can you only do using FDS that can't be achieved using web services?Not necessary no. The sweetest thing about using FDS is using the data synchronization features. You can essentially create CRUD code for objects in your system and FDS can synchronize the data server side and client side. Meaning you can have 1 client update data and have that data get pushed down to the server... persisted to a database and at the same time pushed out to other clients for real time updates. You can't do this without FDS. 2. Can you pass strongly typed objects into and out of flex using .net webservices?Yes. (mostly) When you pass objects via a webservice into AS3 the (Objects) themselves aren't strongly typed. They're just generic objects graphs that you can dot down through. MyAs3Obj.someCollection [0].someProperty. The nice thing about remoting is that you can pass back typed AS3 objects so you get compile time checking in FlexBuilder against custom as3 classes that you write that are mirror images of your typed objects on the server. When you dot down throug generic object graphs you can mistype the name. This isn't quite as big a deal as it used to be in AS2. In AS2 we used to get silent failures at runtime (took forever to debug). But in AS3 we get runtime errors so that when you get a null reference exeception it yells at you in the debug player (not in the release player). There is a beta implementation of AS3 Remoting/ FDS in .NET called weborb. http://www.themidnightcoders.com/ 3. Does flash allow for file-based video streaming without using a specialised server?Yes. 4. Can I use flash remoting to communicate with my .net back-end?Yes. Although it isn't necessary as you can use weborb.On 7/24/06, prendergastjames [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'd like to apologise if this request is a little too open ended before I get started... so here it is: sorry.

I want to be able to keep the Data Layer and Business Objects that I've been hacking away at in .net.

That is of course unless you own the domain groupvii.net and the mail server and not using your isp's email. After doing a whois on groupvii.net I'm assuming that you do own that domain.An example of the filtering that Shannon is talking about would be if your using dial-up or dsl from ATT and you have an ATT email... then and only then would ATT filter your mail. If you have ATT as your ISP but are not using groupvii.net for email... ATT will not filter your groupvii.net email.Although I havn't read further into ATT's assocation with the NSA... so they might be? *snickers* On 7/16/06, Shannon Hicks [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mail is filtered by (usually) a complicated set of algorithms...
