RE: [flexcoders] How can I place custom components into custom components?
The only way (as far as I know) is to create a.mxml in Actionscript, make it an Actionscript component.

The problem is: I want to create a component A in the file a.mxml and a component B in a file b.mxml, and to use them both in the file main.mxml like here (I've replaced triangle brackets by square ones!): main.mxml = [mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml; xmlns:local=*] [local:A] [local:B /] [/local:A] [mx:Application] a.mxml === [mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml; xmlns:local=*] [mx:Label ... /] [/mx:Canvas] b.mxml [mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml; xmlns:local=*] [mx:Image ... /] [/mx:Canvas] this example produces such an error: 1 Error found. Error main.mxml: The component B may not be used as a child of A because the A is a container with internal children. If I understand it all correctly, then if I want to use such a construction [local:A] [local:B /] [/local:A] then I should leave component A description in a.mxml empty, otherwise it's not allowed to insert component B into it. Why is it so and how can I solve this problem? Thanks!

RE: [flexcoders] How can I place custom components into custom components?
From the top of my head (not tested and most likely not working):
import mx.containers.Canvas;
import mc.controls.Label;
class A extends Canvas
{
private var _label:Label;
public function Canvas()
{
};
public function createChildren():Void
{
super.createChildren();
_label = Label(createChild(Label));
};
};
Then in mxml u can do:
[local:A]
[local:B /]
[/local:A]
If I make a component in ActionScript, how can I later integrate it
with MXML?
Nothing special :)
How can I make a component with an MXML container as a GUI and some
data simultaneously in ActionScript?
I don't understand your question completely, but I think u just want to
extend some container class and code away.

Hi All,
I am facing a Coder's block here and would
appreciate help . This is kind of long and I apologize for the same .
Using actionscript I am looping some nodes (called
"location") in a XML document and based on some condition would like to remove
a few "location" nodes from the XML . Here's my initial code
for (var locNode:XMLNode=aNode.firstChild; locNode != null;
locNode=locNode.nextSibling){
if (locNode.nodeType == 1
locNode.nodeName=="location"){
var exclude:Boolean = false;
if (some condition here){
exclude = true;
}
}
if(exclude==true){
loclNode.removeNode();
} }
The above code does not work, because after
removing the first "location" node, the loop is never executed again as loop
condition locNode != null is not fullfilled (because the locNode being
evaluated just got deleted).
I tried to solve this by having another pointer
(called delNode) moving along with locNode and using delNode to remove nodes ,
while keep moving locNode on to next sibling . The problem I now face is that
after delNode deletes a node, I am not able to have it catch up with locNode .
Here's the code

delNode.removeNode();
//would like some kind of statement here to have delNode catch up with
locNode }else{
locNode=locNode.nextSibling;
delNode=delNode.nextSibling;
} }
Would appreciate any suggestions /

RE: [flexcoders] Flex, Remoting and more
Sorry for this late reaction. I've done some tests with ColdFusion 7 and their new event gateways. I modified an existing Java socket server to be an event gateway type. This enabled me to be able to push data from ColdFusion to all connected Flash clients. In Flash I used XMLSocket. I don't know what kind of server side software u are using, but the combination of a socketserver and some server side logic can do the trick. The cutback of this is that messages can only be send as string. Offcourse u can send xml for complex data, but then u still have problems with numbers and booleans. Its however fairly easy to create a serializer / deserializer to send complex data as string and still keep certain types. I hope this information helps u in your quest.

Thats seems to cover the needs for developing chat-like applications... Now, imagine I have an external Notification server (yukon notification server, or whatever) And I want FCS to listen *persistently* to this server. With FCS and Remoting I know how to POLL a database 1 time or every 10 seconds and format that answer to feed the FCS but HOW can I create a persistent link to a notification server,socket server or similar, get the data this server is pushing, format this data and pass it to the FCS?

When a new call arrives, it is shown in every client running the application. And it is the call center notification server that tells the FCS it has received the new call and NOT the FCS that polls the queue of the notification server to see if there is any new call pending.

RE: [flexcoders] globalisation in flex..
I dint follow the whole thread, but i noticed
"includes" are used.
So if u need the locale thingies in more then one mxml
the locale thingieswill be included in all of the files, wich is offcourse
not efficient.
I would say a class would be more approprate, maybe
something like this:
class
fly.language.LanguageManager
{ static private var
_currentLanguage_str:String;
static public function
init(init_obj:Object):Void
{
_currentLanguage_str =
init_obj.language;
};
static public function
getLanguage():String
{ return
_currentLanguage_str;
};
static public function
getText(type_str:String):String
{ return
(_global.fly.language[_currentLanguage_str][type_str]);
};};
Then u
have locale files like this:
class
fly.language.English
{ static public var name:String =
"Name"; static public var
adress:String = "Adress"; static
public var phoneNumber:String = "Phonenumber"; static
public var send:String = "Send";
};
class
fly.language.Dutch
{ static public var name:String =
"Naam"; static public var
adress:String = "Adres"; static
public var phoneNumber:String = "Telefoonnummer"; static
public var send:String = "Verzenden";
};
Then in your
application u would have this:
?xml version="1.0"?mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"
initialize="start()"
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import fly.language.LanguageManager
public function start()
{
//make sure one of the language classes is included in the
application
//fly.language.Dutch;
fly.language.English;
fly.language.LanguageManager.init({language:
"English"});
};
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Form
mx:FormItem
label="{LanguageManager.getText("name")}"
mx:TextInput /
/mx:FormItem mx:FormItem
label="{LanguageManager.getText("adress")}"
mx:TextArea /
/mx:FormItem mx:FormItem
label="{LanguageManager.getText("phoneNumber")}"
mx:TextInput /
/mx:FormItem
mx:FormItem mx:Button
label="{LanguageManager.getText("send")}" /
/mx:FormItem
/mx:Form/mx:Application
This
makes sure that your language translations are included only once in your
application. And reachable in every class via the
LanguageManager.

RE: [flexcoders] PNG not supported in cellRenderer?
The Flash player is small in size, and that's not without a reason. Macromedia made a choice to support only one format of each type of media to be loaded dynamicly: Video: - .flv Audio: - .mp3 Image: - .jpg (non-progressive) And with that it also supports: - .swf If they would have add any other formats the filesize of the player would increase, and with all technoligy we have available today (think server-side converters) there are no limitations these formats bring.

Subject: [flexcoders] Trademark Symbol
Hi yo all,
I am new to the Flex crusade (cf over sql background), so here goes with
my first question.
How do I get the proper trademark (TM) symbol in Flex?
For example:
mx:Panel title=My ApplicationTM/mx:Panel
Using anything like:
mx:Panel title=My Applicationtrade;/mx:Panel
OR
mx:Panel title=My Application#8482/mx:Panel
Doesn't work, and besides this is this not the world of html anymore :-)
The closest I have come is using escape (unicode) characters. For
example:
mx:Script
![CDATA[
function myTitle()
{
var myTitle:String;
myTitle=My Application\u00ae;
return myTitle;
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Panel title={myTitle}/mx:Panel
But \u00ae is the registered trademark (R) symbol not (TM). I realize
that the TM symbol is not part of the ISO 8859-1 character set supported
by the flash player.
Is there anyway to get the trademark symbol in flash? IE Unicode
characters higher than 256.
Many thanks in advance,
Malcolm

There is no class tag for defining a library, rather you need to use
component which is a little mislead. The above has been tested and
works.

RE: [flexcoders] Applications forgetting variables
The difference between
these two approaches is scope.
In your first example u
create a variable on the instance of the class u are working in. This variable
exists as long as that instance has a reference somewhere in the
application.
In the second example u
create a variable inside a function definition. This means that at the }, the
end of the function this variable is destroyed.

forgetting variables
I can not help but feel I have ran in to more problems than neccessary
because my flex applicaitons forget variables. I mean I know from a code
standpoint I am doing the right thing when I write my code but I think it
forgets variables and I think this is causing me more stress than need be. What
I want to know is how does someone go about making sure it does not forget
variables I mean is this a way to do it:
If I have a function and a variablethat looks like this say:
public var age:Number
public function compute(){
age = 23
}
but lets say that for some odd reason when you get to the compute function
it keeps forgetting the age variable will this solve it to write the function
like this:
public function compute(){
var age:Number
age = 23
}
If there is any other suggestions let me know

RE: [flexcoders] Compiling a set of classes
Well i have been stumbling over using RSL the last few
days. Using compc, etc.
What i tried was creating an SWC wich contains all classes
needed by the framework (called TAP). I compiled them using the following sws
file in combination with compc:
library rsl="empty.swc" /namespace
uri="TAP" all="true" //library
empty.swc is a swc file containing all components used by
an empty flex application, created from a class like this:
class empty
{
var a =
mx.core.Application;
};
The part 'rsl="empty.swc"' is used so it wont compile the
classes allrdy available in the flex generated swf into the
library.
As commandline arguments i gave compc the namespace TAP and
a manifest.xml:
?xml

This resulted in a SWC with all TAP classes compiled into a
swf together with some flex classes the TAP framework uses and are not by
default in the flex generated swf.
In order to use the RSL in the flex application i used the
following sws:
library url=""http://pc021:8300/_TAP/Library.swf">http://pc021:8300/_TAP/Library.swf"namespace uri="TAP" all="true"
//library
Thishowevermadetheapplicationhangonafullloadersaying"Initializing".
So far what i have done. I'll explain again what i
want:
I want to make a set of classes available in memory at
runtime.
These classes (AS and MXML) should be compiled into an
swf.
This swf containing these classes should not contain
the classes wich are allrdy in the flex generated
swf.
I can then in my application load this swf, and as soon
as this swf is loaded the classes in the swf are available since they reside in
the global scope.
This way i can use my framework in any flex
application.
With flash i would do that just by creating a fla. Put
in the appropreate classes (only referencing them so the compiler knows
iwill use them). And then export, resulting in an swf with a library of
classes. For the classes i dont want in there i create intrinsic class
descriptions.
I cant do this with flex since some of my classes are
mxml files, containing visual
components.
Maybe u have an idea on how to solve
this.

Hi Lauren,
I think you're getting things mixed up. Your code should be something
like this (incomplete and untested):
class ModelLocator
{
static function initialize() : Boolean
{
EventDispatcher.initialize( ModelLocator.prototype );
return true;
}
static var mixIn : Boolean = ModelLocator.initialize();
private static var _user : User;
[ChangeEvent(userChanged)]
public static function get user() : User
{
return _user;
}
public static function set user( user : User ) : Void
{
_user = user;
}
}
class AnotherClass
{
public function AnotherClass()
{
ModelLocator.addEventListener( userChanged, this );
}
...
}
Theres quite a lot going on in there, search the archives for the static
initialization (you can alternatively just use
EventDispatcher.initialize in a constructor), or read this article about
mixins:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flex/1/mixin/index.ht
ml
You should probably also use the Delegate class in your
addEventListener.
Cheers,
Ali

The documentation seems not correct here:
setInterval(objectName:Object, methodName:Function, interval:Number [,

I thought methodName should be of type string when using an object as

RE: [flexcoders] Validating XML
All that is possible in Flex is based on the Flash Players capabilities. Validation with XSD is not implemented in the player and thus not possible in Flex. The flash player only has most basic features available, as u know its only possible to dynamicly load one type of image, sound and movie. This is don't in order to keep the player itself small. I guess the same reason has made that XSD didn't make it into the player. Greetz Erik -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JesterXL Sent: dinsdag 24 mei 2005 17:51 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Validating XML My perception of Castor and the reason to use it is based on the ability to validate your data/value objects in Java, thus ensuring that if your data is valid, and another system has problems using it, it is the other system and not the base Java code. Furthermore, the use of XSD's for data objects allows the proliferation of many standard value objects to be used across a myriad of applications with the ability of those applciations to validate the data they are sending, thus ensuring ease of communication across disparate systems. With the above 2 said, that is my guess as to why someone would expect Flex to validate the XML via the XSD before sending; that way you can ensure the data you are sending back to Java is valid ... in form, not in contents. So, if the number is 0-0-0-0-0 instead of 000-000-, that is a data input validation error, but at least the data is well formed. Does that make sense? I'm not saying I agree with using an XSD vs. just straight RemoteObject and mapping both server-side and client side value object classes to match as close as possible, and through testing you are ensured that the data works since you mirrored the Java class client side in a value object, but your thoughts do help me understand the why someone would want to do it; I'm trying to build up a decent inference here.

[flexcoders] Development of components with AS
Hello, some questions :) 1: _measuredWidth _measuredHeight _measuredPreferredWidth _measuredPreferredHeight __width __height etc. Is there anywhere a list of these kind of properties that can be used with the development of a custom component in actionscript. I would be interested in knowing wich properties are available and what effect they have in the framework. 2: MyCustomComponent mx:TextArea / /MyCustomComponent The above piece of xml creates a child on the MyCustomComponent. Im wondering what code is used to determine wich childs must be created. If u extend container, either the container createChildren function or the View container function takes care of this creation. But how does it work? 3: In (for instance) the accordion class the visibility of childs is explicitly set with setVisible(false, true). This is not documented, but an importend part of the framework. Im wondering how many of these (for component development) usefull functions there exists. 4: mx.effects.EffectManager mx.core.UIObjectDescriptor mx.container.Box; mx.container.VBox; mx.container.HBox; These classes are not included in the FlexForFlash.zip file while they can be valuable to the development of good UI components. Does any1 know why? 5. Does any1 know how a Box determines the size of its children? I mean when u resize a child within a box, the positions of the other childs (and sometimes their sizes) are recalculated. How does this process exactly work. 6. In the documentation of the V2 architecture I miss the overview. I see a lot of examples of parts of the framework, but I don't see a list of goals connected to the theory of its implementation. It seems in the general documentation everything is ordered by feature and in component creation documentation all simple features are included and minimaly explained (think init, createChildren, measure, etc.). Im missing a structured view of how the framework is tied together. From concepts all the way down to parts of implementation code in components.

Joe, Jester and Ali, thnx for your replies. These were the kind of ideas I was after. Joe, thank u a lot for the roadmap. I will look into it soon. I know it will be a lot of work, but it has to be done :) I have created some componentent in Flash, but the biggest problem is the (so it seems) complexity of the V2 framework (along with the fact that I allways resisted to use it). If I were you, I'd read up on the various Flash component integration articles. This is the only one I found, any suggestions are welcome. http://mxdu.v4.breezecentral.com/p27914483/ I guess I should have mentioned that what I consider the hard part here is creating the kind of animation effects that are shown in the SWF that you posted. Yeah, animations are allways hard... Though they are very importend for the user experience :) http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flex/1_5/createcompo nents/index.html Thnx for this link. This used the same kind of example as I noticed in the pdf 'Designing Flex Componenents and Themes in Flash Authoring'. I will check for additional information though. To create such a component, with all the features you're after, I'd say that you're undertaking a fairly complicated component development task, with effort measured in days, if not weeks, and I've not seen a great deal evidence that completely new components of such complexity have been created, outwith of Macromedia. I agree, but we are basing our core product on Flex wich is a modulair CMS. Im doing the research development part to check how we can do it all. I need to gather as much knowledge of Flex as possible so we eventually will be able to build everything our designers and creative minds can come up with. The best way to learn is to do it. And allthough it may take some time, it will be of value for my company :) Greetz and Thank you, Erik -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe Berkovitz Sent: vrijdag 29 april 2005 21:53 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Fwd: Re: [flexcoders] Tips on Custom component] Erik, one more thing: I guess I should have mentioned that what I consider the hard part here is creating the kind of animation effects that are shown in the SWF that you posted.

Subject: [flexcoders] dispatchEvent in AS class?
I'm trying to wrap an XMLSocket object in a singleton class to manage
my (single) XMLSocket connection, but I can't seem to get it to throw
any events. Is it that I need to put it into my .mxml file as a
component or something? Right now it is just an actionScript class.
I was wanting to stick to the cairngorm framework's delegate model, but
my SocketManager actually initiates commands from the server it is
connected to (the whole point of my XMLSocket) so this class will need
to dispatch a bunch events, preferably using the
addEventListener+dispatchEvent model.
Whenever the socket connection succeeds, I get my SocketManager:
Socket connection attempt succeeded trace statement, then I get a
warning which says Warning: dispatchEvent is not a function which
RE: [flexcoders] dispatchEvent in AS class?
Hmm, I think u are missing the point that this class is a singleton and
thus only instantiated once.
The constructor is private and the instance can only be retrieved via
the getInstance method:
static public function getInstance():SocketManager
{
if (!_instance)
{
_instance = new SocketManager();
};
return _instance;
}
This method checks if the instance is created. If it is it simply
returns the instance, making sure only instance of this class exists.
If im missing something here, please point me to it :)

Doing this:
EventDispatcher.initialize(this);
Puts the addEventListener, removeEventListener, and dispatchEvent
functions as well as the arrays to hold the events on each instance of
the class.
Additionally, that method is run each time a class instance is
instatiated, doing the redudant re-initializing again.
The reason I mentioned do it this way:
static var mixIt = EventDispatcher.initalize(SocketManager.prototype);
Is because by being static, it is only initialized once, not per each
class instantiation, and secondly, the methods are added to the class
once, thus using significantly less RAM.
So, it is necessarey if you want a more efficient class.

RE: [flexcoders] Asfunction not working inside htmlText
The problem here is that asfunction (at least the function asfunction is

So in this case your call will end up in your text component.
If u change asfunction:hello_you to asfunction:_parent.hello_you the
example should work.

RE: [flexcoders] Newbie: Flash vs. Flex, CPUs, Lazslo
An example would be Remoting, any here who have used Flash Remoting in IDE form know its more tedious to implement then FLEX. I don't have this problem, but that may be because we internally use our own remoting components. On all other point I agree with u. We chose flex for another importend reason: the component framework. Allthough I personally don't like the V2 components, macromedia uses them in Flex and will continue to develop them. They are with a large team wich is capable of managing such a component library. We could develop components ourself wich would be half the size and more optimized, but the developing takes a lot of time and getting them completely bugfree would not be doable.

Could someone explain (or point me to a doc/faq) that tells me why I would choose Flex over Flash. What can Flex do that Flash can't? Even if it's more difficult in Flash, perhaps it's worth it given the cost of Flex. I'll take a stab at this one. As a Flash IDE developer for many a year, I've found that its really a bottle neck and a slow process at times. Flash IDE takes a lot of discipline and understanding of the concept of flash itself and you better be armed before taking on a large project. When developing in large projects you tend to be a one man show, as to share resources or code amongst other developers takes a lot of communication and patience. That alone improves why FLEX is a valid purchase. As for what can FLEX do FLASH can't? not much technically as FLEX is really an alternative approach to the end goal. It does bring a lot more to the table then FLASH IDE in terms of Rapid Development. An example would be Remoting, any here who have used Flash Remoting in IDE form know its more tedious to implement then FLEX. Its examples like this that change your perspective on FLASH vs FLEX. On top of that, FLEX handles a lot of your tasks for you, things like initialization modals, busy cursors, history management etc are all automated tasks within FLEX. In terms of costs, i've seen soo many projects take months to do what could be done in FLEX in half the time. These are also run by some very competent FLASH developers who have years of experience and know the language/tool off by heart. Its just cumbersome, slow and at times very tedious. That being said, you do a lot more control visually / debugging wise in FLASH IDE then you currently at present have in FLEX. On top of that your portability is much more open then at present with FLEX. Implementing Runtime Shared Libraries in FLASH IDE is awful and painful, just ask JessterXL all about that one, he's mastered it but he went through a learning curve and pain to get to that point. I like wise, i think i've got it mastered but found it took a lot of imagination and research. In FLEX? bah its next to easy as implementing a Tree component. In FLASH MX 2004 Pro, implementing even a Tree component (databinding aside) isn't a simple task and requires some extra work then compared to FLEX. Cost wise, you'll blow more money using FLASH IDE then you will via FLEX for a large application. If you are building a small RIA app that isn't as large and doesn't require a team of developers to work on, then yes FLASH MX 2004 Pro is the suitable resource. 2. Speaking of cost, I read on MM's site that they recommend a typical deployment of a Flex app have 6 - 8 CPUs. Is this true in practice? If I have an app that has 50 users (would grow to perhaps 10K users) who don't hit the system very hard, what are CPU requirements? Are there any performance benchmarks that I can use as a guideline for what I would need initially and at what point I would need to upgrade. As a small company, we can probably chew off $12K, $70K is another story (unless I misunderstand the licensing). Not sure on server-side, i've oftend wondered that my self and while i've read various optimization techniques and resources i'm still skeptical of its use in terms of high volume. That being said, we could easily use a DUAL CPU setup here at work for a FLEX application (approx 300-500 end users hitting it daily) and provided there is enough ram thrown at it, it should hold up fine. If need be i'd look into clustering the servers or throwing more RAM at it.

I want to know why I should avoid using getNextHighestDepth(). This is
partially awnsered by:

getNextHighestDepth is, from experience, overrwritten from the

Is this true?
And if its actionscript, my guess is the performance of this mechanism
cant be an issue. I imagine the functionality works something like this:
var _highestDepth_num = 0;
function attachMovie(linkageID_str, newName_str, depth_num)
{
_highestDepth_num = _highestDepth_num depth_num ? depth_num :

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Re: createClassObject
If you are just controlling visibility, use setVisible(false/true)
instead of creating the objects each time; that should be significantly
more efficient.
Secondly, yeah, z order is a good concept. Basically, each element in
Flash is drawn on a depth. Higher depths are where things are drawn
closer to you, and lower depths are where things are drawn farther away,
and below those are higher depths. Only 1 element can occupy a given
depth at any given time, and if something is created in an occupied
depth, it destroys whatever object is there, and then creates itself.
getNextHighestDepth is, from experience, overrwritten from the Flash
implementation, and handles depth management in ActionScript rather than
letting the player do it; this allows depth to work in the framework.
The problem is, this slows getNextHighestDepth considerably since it's
now written in ActionScript instead of native C. Therefore, set a
private var depth:Number up top in your class, set it to -1 in your init
function, and then do:
createClassObject(Control, name, ++depth);
That way, it'll auto-increment.

instead of UIComponent for your cell renderers.

that the canvas extends movieclip so I could add a textfield to it. It
would help to possibly get a better understanding of how this all works.
Here is my code:
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
mx:Script
![CDATA[
function onMouseDownEvent()
{
var point = {x:mouseX, y:mouseY};
canvasText.createTextField(mytext,0,point.x,point.y, 40, 40,
{text:'this is a test'}); };
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Canvas id=canvasText mouseDown=onMouseDownEvent(); width=300
height=300/
/mx:Application
I also cannot define properties when the app starts for instance
canvasText.mytext.border can not be defined in the function. I modified
this slightly and it work well in flash. Please help. Thanks.

RE: [flexcoders] How to populate tree control from web service re sult (server side java objects)
I think that the problem u describe comes from the fast
that (as far as i know) a tree canhave a dataProvider wich is a XML
object. The tree dataprovider is used to provider an API to modify the xml more
easy.
In order to use a combination of arrays and objects to
fill your tree u need to use a function wich uses the dataProvider API for
u.
From the top of my head i wrote the code below. Im not
sure if its bugfree, but u should get the idea. Maybe macromedia has a better
solution than the one i wrote below. Its also possible to comvert your object to
xml 1th but in that case the tree component will have to iterate over data
structure again to do what the function below does.
I hope this helps :)
code
public function fillTree(node, dataProvider_array,
folderKey_str, nodeKey_str, folderName_str, nodeName_str)
{
for (var i = 0; i
dataProvider_array.length; i++)
{
var
currentItem_obj:Object = dataProvider_array[i];
varnodeName_str:String =
currentItem_obj[nodeName_str];
if
(nodeName_str)
{
//its a node, not a folder
node.addTreeNode(nodeName_str, currentItem_obj);
}
else
{
//its a folder
nodeName_str = currentItem_obj[folderName_str];
var newNode:XMLNode = node.addTreeNode(nodeName_str,
currentItem_obj);
fillTree(newNode, currentItem_obj[folderKey_str], folderKey_str, nodeKey_str,
folderName_str, nodeName_str);
fillTree(newNode, currentItem_obj[nodeKey_str], folderKey_str, nodeKey_str,
folderName_str, nodeName_str);
};
};
};
fillTree(myTree.dataProvider, myInfo_array,
"childFolders", "systemFiles", "folderName", "fileName");

Hi
Manish and Matt
Its
not simple as you describe . even the documentation does have a bug , i've tried
the code from below and the output is
[object],[object].
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/flex_docs_en/0226.htm
let me
remind you that my objects are jave objects that come from the server in SOAP
and i have no idea what flex does with them , and believe mei tried and
read all your documentation .
Manish
your example is good for Tree that was built on XML and not from objects , cause
in my case you would have
get
[object Object],1,[object Object]
my
Java objectsare very simple they like this
class SystemFile
{
String
fileName;
String
fileGuid;
}
class
SystemFolder{
String
folderName;
SystemFolder[]
childFolders;
SystemFile[]
systemFiles;
}
trying
to get to item.folderName didn't work also not
item.fileName.
i
didn't find any way to access my original object members besides backing object
, what is wrong here ?
thanks

Also check out the
TreeDataProvider API. You should always use the methods specified in that
API when working with either XML or Objects in a Tree or Menu. That way
you don't have to worry about backingObject which is an implementation detail
purposely not documented.

Well in theory u could create a function witch lets u bind properties

dynamicly u need to know what properties of what objects are bound.
From the top of my head this will look something like:
private function _propChanged(prop_str:String, oldVal, newVal, data_obj)
{
data_obj.receivingObj[data_obj.receivingProp] = newVal;
return newVal;
};
public function bindProperty(receivingProp_str, receiving_obj,

RE: [flexcoders] Re: createChild dynamically via DB arguments..
Agreed,
We use a similair system to create instances from strings at runtime. In
our main class we have this line of code:
Components;
The class components look like this:
class Components
{
public function Components()
{
package.Component1;
package.Component2;
};
};
This way, we are able to instantiate the classes inside Components.as at
runtime via a string. Eventually Components.as will be generated by
ColdFusion before the Flex application is loaded.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: createChild dynamically via DB arguments..
The framework we now use in flex was different than the one we used with Flash on one crucial point. With the Flash version every class (or actually module, a set of classes) was loaded in at runtime and had its own swf, wich contained only one line of code: package.ClassName; When u needed a class, the swf was loaded in and as soon as it finished loading the class would be available. The problem with flex is that u also use mxml classes, wich is something the Flash Compiler cannot compile. U might want to investigate this approach using the flex compiler and create swf's of all classes. It wouldn't be to hard to write a piece of software that loops recursively through a given directory compiling classes. A problem here might be classes referencing another class, resulting in an swf with more than just one class. Hope this helps your thinking..

RE: [flexcoders] Re: createChild dynamically via DB arguments..
Im sure we can lay out allot of possibilities, but that's not what u
want.
There are two possible reasons for the fact that u would like to
instantiate a class runtime (via createChild):
1. U want your main application to be as light as possible.
2. U don't know (at compile time) which class will represent the child.
My guess is that number 2 is the one u are after. To achieve that goal
take the following steps.
A.
Place the following code inside your initialize function in your main
application:
Components;
B.
Create (in the same dir as the main application) a 'Components.as' file,
this file contains the following code:
class Components
{
public function Components()
{
//put all possible children inhere
com.myProject.MyClass;
};
};
The above two steps make sure the possible childs are included in the
flex application (they are compiled in the resulting swf).
C.
Create a function in your application that looks like this:
public function getClassRef(classPath_str:String):Object
{
var classRef_obj:Object = _global;
var class_array:Array = classPath_str.split(.);
for (var i = 0; i class_array.length; i++)
{
classRef_obj = classRef_obj[class_array[i]];
};
return classRef_obj;
};
D.
In the initialize function u can create a child like this:
baseContainer.createChild(getClassRef(com.myProject.MyClass));
I hope this helps :)

(also i put another sequence of the above inside the
unknown-loaded-at-runtime-class and they came up aswell heh).
imho its as if at compile time, the entire app is packaged together, and
seperated into whats FLASH code and whats other, if other do i embed it
inside the swf and all that... i''ll pop the hood a later day (if i can
figure it out) but *shrug* my level of FLEX expertises ends here hehehe.
_level0[com] or _global[com] etc won't work. As well as
findClass();
On a side note/question. I am also unsure if (hell i have no idea to
test) whether or not if you have assets embedded inside the mxml files
in question (even declared as RSL) will they request a new asset per
instantiation...
Any input / help is most welcomed heh.

RE: [flexcoders] Image caching
Well, my guess is that this has nothing to do with cache, but the fact that the flex components delete and create the movieclips again and then load the image. If it is cached or not, it takes some time before the image can appear. I don't know exactly how these components are constructed or if there are settings for this 'paging' feature...

RE: [flexcoders] Silly question
This subject has been discussed many times (either here or on
FlashCoders).
The main problem lies in the fact that the class must be compiled into
the swf. There are several ways to do this. One is to have a swf for
each class with only one line of code on the root, to make sure the
class is compiled:
myPackage.myClass;
Then u can load the swf into your main movie and have the class
instantiated.
Another option is to have a list with possible classes in a class file:
class Components
{
public function Components()
{
myPackage.MyClass;
myPackage.MyOtherClass;
};
};
To call the class dynamicly u can use code like this:
function getInstance(class_str:String):Object
{
var classRef:Object = _global;
var classPath_array:Array = class_str.split(.);
for (var i = 0; i classPath_array.length; i++)
{
classRef = classRef[classPath_array];
};
return new classRef();
};
var instance = getInstance(myPackage.MyClass);

2) Is there an efficient way to walk a sparsely populated array in

If the array elements were created in order of the increasing index,

In this line u mixed java syntax with AS2. To cast a variable to a
certain type format your code like this:
var sviluppo:CTabellaSviluppoVO = CTabellaSviluppoVO(result);
This works with all custom types and with most build in Flash type.
There are however some build in classes that have an other effect:
var sviluppo:Array = Array(result);
The above line of code will return an array with one element wich
contains result while u would think that it would just cast result to
the array type. This is because in older versions of Flash the global
function Array was used to create an array.

RE: [flexcoders] Custom Control Components
I feel u there, I myself want to create components that are fully functional, skinnable and fit right into the V2 architecture. I havent been able to put my head around it yet. I think i found the the same PDF u are talking about (Developing Flex Components and Themes in Flash Authoring) wich i hope gives enough detail. A problem in this matter is that the flow of components (UIObject and UIComponent with their helper classes) is very complex and not easy to understand. And besides that, i couldnt find a document that describes the flow very good (it may be in the PDF though). I understand that this is a complex problem for macromedia as well, as they are familiar with this architecture. Maybe we could provide them with a list of questions regarding the building of components. Questions like: - How can i makea custom component skinnable? -- And how does the skinning of components work internally? - Say i want to build a 'wizard' (next, previous) component, how would u do it? - I want to make a component with buttons from wich the states are dynamicly loaded images combined with a label. The placement of the label is dependend of the available size of the component. In wich 'hook' would i place the check function. And how would i build a button component with different states? As u can see these are more practical based questions of problems i ran into. Im guessing that more of us developers are having these kind of questions.

};
The above class makes sure the classes are included in the swf.
Then when I need to access it I can do things like:
var classString = package.className3;
var classRef = _global;
var class_array = classString.split(.);
for (var i = 0; i class_array.length; i++)

Actually that's what UIObject does internally. It does attachMovie() on
the class's symbolName. So, yes, it's possible to create an object from
a string identifying the class. Using the class reference seems to be
the preferred way in Flex.
If all you have is strings, you can create a mapping from the strings to
their corresponding class references and look up the mapping every time
you need a reference. Maybe there's a better Flash Way (TM) that I'm

RE: [flexcoders] Theory and Practice: Mixing AS2.0 in MXML
Personaly I don't like putting code into mxml's too, for me they are just the visual part of the application. I also don't like the idea of having a class somewhere far away from my form wich is called on a (for example) submit button event and then accesses the formfields to check their values. What I do is naming the mxml (class) file like this: classNameVisual.mxml and subclass that file with an .as file called className.as. This way I can instantiate the form as className and have a local reference to the formfields inside my .as file. There I do actions that apply to the form only and use events to communicate with the rest of the application. This approach results in two files vor each view (form, mxml, whaever). The only consern of the .as file is the mxml file. And they are easy to find.

Since we have been able to successfully apply this to Flex applications, I would have to disagree with this assessment. when we were building RIA with Flash, that it was essential not to scatter ActionScript code around the actual Flash movie itself. So ... we would advocate that code was not scattered around the timeline, that there was a single layer in the timeline, with a single frame, where a single file includes.as was included in the application, This is definitely one, valid way of doing things -- however the #include method of loading code into Flash projects is the old-school way we were forced to use in the days of AS1. With AS2 and the ability to link classes to movie clips, this method is no longer necessary. It makes sense to keep all code in external classes and link them to your movie clips (forms) when necessary. The code Application form, then, becomes a natural entry point into your application. Natural in the Flash-way of doing things. Does this method of working translate to Flex? Of course -- Flex *is* Flash :) The most striking difference between Flash and Flex (apart form Flex actually having *useful* components that work) is the way you layout your forms: Using MXML instead of an FLA. The fact that Flex is a server product is irrelevant (and completely unnecessary -- it *should* ideally be a client-side tool that outputs SWFs.) In Flex, instead of linking your form classes to an ArpForm or an mx.screens.Form, you link them to mx.containers.Form or mx.core.Application. Migrating an application from Flash to Flex thus becomes simply modifying your forms to handle any component API differences between Flash and Flex and reconstructing your form layouts using MXML (the reverse is also true for migrating a Flex application to Flash.) Any code you have in your FLAs or MXMLs just makes you less flexible and for what? A potential few seconds saved when you are initially writing the code. It has been my experience that actually writing code takes the least amount of time in a project -- debugging, maintaining and scaling an application all take far more time and that's what we must try to reduce. It all comes down to one thing: I like simplicity. The less rules there are the less I have to think. If I know that there's no code in my MXML or FLAs, I don't waste one second of my time searching through them. I know where everything is the moment I look at a new ARP project, even if I've never seen that particular project before. For me, this is more important than saving a few seconds during initial development by adding code to my FLA or MXMLs. Inevitably, some code might find it's way into a component in the Flash Symbol library; but if this ever were the case, then it would be code that BELONGED on that component, and was typically responsible in some way for the view logic associated with that component - so some degree of encapsulation was achieved. But code in the FLA rather than in external ActionScript 2.0 was a bad code smell. This was inevitable with the V1 components but not so with the V2 architecture. Let's now move to Flex. Let me first state the obvious; I would not advocate placing business logic (or lots of it) within mx:Script blocks in Flex, if it can be extracted into an external ActionScript 2.0 class. I would *never* use the Include functionality in Flex to pull in blocks of script, and where possible, I would always encourage that external classes, imports, and object creation is used. Agreed. Maintainability and Scalability If we have AS2.0 code in our MXML, does it make our code harder to maintain ? Not necessarily -- if the code is directly related to that MXML file, it may be the case that encapsulation would encourage the code to belong as a method on the MXML file. This is the main point
RE: [flexcoders] Theory and Practice: Mixing AS2.0 in MXML
What i do is extending the mxmlclass with an AS class. Then instead of using the mxml i use the AS subclass. If the class is empty, things just work like they did before. But inside the AS class u have the usual callBacks (createChildren, init, etc) and a constructor. Via code u can add listeners to the UI components and manage everything from within the AS class.

Subject: [flexcoders] Question about making an array of buttons
I am trying to make an array of buttons that has an array of strings on
it and I was wondering why this code does not work?
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
mx:Script
var letterids=[A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H];
/mx:Script
mx:Array id=eachoftheids
mx:Object label=L1 /
mx:Object label=L2 /
mx:Object label=L3 /
mx:Object label=L4 /
mx:Object label=L5 /
mx:Object label=L6 /
mx:Object label=L7 /
mx:Object label=L8 /
/mx:Array
mx:HBox
mx:Repeater
dataProvider={eachoftheids}mx:Button/mx:Button/mx:Repeater
/mx:HBox
/mx:Application
all I get when I run the code is 8 empty buttons whereas I want to make
an array of strings appear on the buttons from either the letterids
array or the eachoftheids array. I just want to know if an array of
buttons with an array of strings on each of them is possible?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Trial Edition - Setting up JRun as Windows Service?
The key in this is to merge both web.xml files. Say u deployed ColdFusion first. In the cFusion directory there is a WEB-INF directory. U can open the .war file with winrar or some other expander and extract its content. Then u need to add all info in the flex web.xml to the web.xml wich was created by coldFusion. All other files should just be copied and probably do not overlap.

I have been messing with this some today and I am having troubles deploying the flex.war and samples.war on JRun next to ColdFusion. Is there any documentation on how to do this? Also, by doing this, how can I call both CFM files and MXML files on the IIS localhost without having to go to different port numbers? Thanks -- Jeff

Hey list, Does any1 know if the source is available on this example application? http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flex/example_apps/netshop/moreinfo.html Im particulairy interested in the way they did the cellsize-depends-on-amount-of-item thing. More information is show as there are less products on display. How did they do this? Greetz Erik
RE: [flexcoders] Execute code before any component is put on the stage
Title: Message
Hmm, this is an interesting idea.
I still have one small problem though. When i use this
MXMLObject interface my code will be run before the visual mxml components,
right? But in the code i need to load an external ini file, wich could takesome
time. When its loaded, some visual components mich be on the stage. A possible
solution was to use the mx:String tag. This way the content would be
included in the swf.
There is however one problem with the mx:String
tag, it tries to parse the string thats in the source. And with css files, { and
} are pretty common...
So is there a way to include a string in a flex application
(compile time) without having it parsed?

Ahh -
I see :)
If
your parser is a "code only" classyou do notnecessarily need to
subclass a Flex class.Take a look at the mx.core.MXMLObject interface. By
implementing it you can use your class in MXML and still get it initialized
before visible UI components.
Cheers,
Dirk

What i want to achieve?
I created a custom CSS parser wich enables u to set
styles per component instance and also enable u to use CSS classes with the
same nameon different types of elements (instances). In order to doso i
needed to make the UIObject extend a class of my own at runtime (wich is
fairly easy) the problem was, this needed to be done before the components are
instantiated.
I'll send the source with an example when i haveit
cleaned up and ready to go :)

Sorry, but what exactly do you want to achieve?
The
initialize event on the main app will fire when all components are
initialized, that's true. Flex instantiates the components from bottom totop,
the most nested component is initialized first.

When the initialize event is called, all 'mx:'tags
that refer to mxml files (wich are compiled to components) are allready
instantiated. If they were not u would not be able to (for example) setthe
text of a TextArea instance.

RE: [flexcoders] popup window with custom component ( not extending TitleWindow )
WineDetail.mxml There is no property with the name 'PopUpDetail'
The class PopUpDetail, is it in the same folder as WineDetail?
Is the class PopUpDetail in the same folder as the .mxml file with the

If not, add this line to your script (at the TOP):

Subject: [flexcoders] popup window with custom component ( not extending
TitleWindow )
I've been working on a Flex application that requires a modal
popupwindow. I have created a PopUpDetail.mxml that uses a Canvas. I
then have another custom MXML component that is also based on a Canvas.
The component is called WineDetail.mxml.
In WineDetail.mxml is a Script block that uses the following AS (
straight from the Flex book ):
--
function openWineDetail()
{
var parentToPopUpOver = this;
var isModal:Boolean = true;
var initObj = {};
var popUp = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(
parentToPopUpOver, PopUpDetail, isModal, initObj ); }
--
WineDetail is then put into a Repeater object , something like this:
mx:Repeater id=rp
dataProvider={jumboWS.GetWineTop10.result.diffgram.NewDataSet.Table}
WineDetail wineID={rp.currentItem.ID}
winenumber={rp.currentIndex} winedetaillabel={rp.currentItem.NAME}
wineimage={host}Images/wine/wine_{rp.currentItem.ID}_1.jpg xmlns=*
/
/mx:Repeater
note the xmlns attribute. When i click on a WineDetail component, it's
supposed to create a PopUpWindow, but i never got it to work.I'm getting
the following error, among others:
WineDetail.mxml There is no property with the name 'PopUpDetail'
It might be something obvious i'm missing here, but i'm working against
a killer deadline, and this close to find another hack around it...if
somebody has a clue, you may enlighten me :) ( I figured that it's
something as simple as using a Titlewindow instead of a Canvas? )
Thnx

The one with the name 'Allert' has at the bottom when created with the

Alert is a component in Flex (it's what the alert function displays).
The Alert component has its edges set to rounded, by default -- using
CSS styles.
In general you should avoid having classes with the same names as those
in Flex, but if you must, you have the option of setting up the default
style in the constructor:
class my.library.Alert
{
function Alert()
{
setStyle(cornerRadius, 0); // square corner
}
}
I'm not a styles expert, and I haven't tried this code, but you get the
idea.

Ok, I have two different classes with exectly the same code (except for
their names).
The one with the name 'Alert' has at the bottom when created with the
popupManager rounded edges.
The one with the name 'Allert' has at the bottom when created with the
popupManager square edges.
