Ya, kinda had a feeling it was just a bug. So went ahead and covered
myself by telling boss we are just out of luck till the next release
where this is fixed. I might try the skin, just hate using a graphic
where text should do the trick.

I think headerColors is supposed to work, so that's a bug. for
now,
you can use your own skin for title bar's background by setting
titleBackgroundSkin to a class reference.
Panel {
titleBackgroundSkin: ClassReference
(my.skin.TitleBackgroundSkin);
}
or:
Panel {
titleBackgroundSkin: Embed

[flexcoders] Flex 2:Bind a variable to selectedIndex?
Basicaly I have an accordian view. The first pannel is a dataGrid, the secound pannel is a viewstack. What I want is for when I go from the dataGrid to teh viewstack, that the viewstack switch to the first view. However all I seem to be able to do is ether get an error because the viewstack doesn't exist, or every time I click to switch the viewstack it throws me right back to the first view. The viewstack will show the details for an item someone selects on the datagrid. I thought if I could bind a variable to selectedIndex then I could just change that, and when the viewstack showed it would use that value and switch. Any ideas? Yahoo!

Included in that result set (from what I can see) is a field called Abstract with a type of Long. It contains a few paragraphs of text. When I just dump the variable to the screen outside of flex, it displays fine. When I even try and pass the information back to Flex however from a CFC it blows up. No helpful error messages ether.

Re: RES: [flexcoders] Flex 2:CFC can't seem to return the same type
Nope, haven't tried that yet.
Basicaly what I did to get it to work is to make all my variables in
Flex2 be strings. Then when I assign the value returned from the
CFC, if its a date or number being returned I use String() which will
convert the number or date to a string representation.
mx:DateFormatter id=StdDateFormat/
mx:CurrenctFormatter id=StdMoneyFormat precision=2/
[Bindable]
public var date_dp:String = new String();
[Bindable]
public var total_dp:String = new String();
date_dp = String(result[0].DATE);
total_dp = String(result[0].TOTAL);
Then in the binding I use a currency formater and a date formater
which seem to take strings or number/dates as acceptable input and
output correctly.
mx:Label text={StdDateFormat.format(date_dp)}/
mx:Label text={StdMoneyFormat.format(total_dp)}/

Greg,
I'm not sure, but I think that in AS 3.0 you can't assign an empty
string to
a Date Object. It's stronglly typed. As well you can't assigns na
empty
string to a Numeric variable. You must return 0 or -1 to a numeric
variable.
I guess that's the problem.
As you're using Flex2 and ColdFusion, have you tested using session
variables? It's not working for me and I don't know why. I tested
the same
components using just the browser and it worked.
Thanks.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 2:Package/Class problem
Well that definatly clears up a few things that were confusing me. Basicaly what I am doing is that we have several intrAnet applications that we are trying to create a central reporting system for. In all cases the reports will be based on a person or list of people. We have a tabed interface where the first tab lets the manager build the list of people. They can do this either by searching for and selecting individual people which builds a list of people's unique campus wide ID, or using departments and department codes, or eventually companies and company codes. When you click on the next tab it takes whichever type of list the manager built and generates a list of whatever in a dataGrid. You can then double click on a row and it uses a accordian to show a viewstack with all the details for that record. However instead of coding the visual part all in one mxml file I have a main mxml file with the search, then each additional tab I have in a seperate mxml file as a component. So in the tabNavigator I simply add lines like local:otdTab id=otdTabHandle/ When I am inside one of the components I want to access the same doubleclick function I use in the main mxml. However since the as file the doubleclick code is in is included in the main mxml the component can't see the function. I have to add the mx.core.Application.application. in order for the component to see it. So what I would rather do is just be able to add a include or something in the component making the functions already loaded in the main file available to the component file. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Roger Gonzalez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This seems like you're talking about a couple different things here. I'm not sure I understand where mx.core.Application.application comes into it. You can do the same thing with source as you can with a SWC; Make a new directory tree, looks like you're using mrstd. Then, you'll make one source file per class (that you are currently putting in one file). Name the source file the same as the classname. BTW - several of your utility functions should probably really be static - there's no reason to create a class instance just to call a function when there are no vars on the object! Add the directory one level above the mrstd directory to your actionscript-classpath (either via the flex-config file or by setting it in FlexBuilder; Project ActionScript Build Path Class path. When you want to use these classes from some other file, just do import mrstd.*; Use the classes as you would expect. This should get you most of the way there. Ok, so what if you want to hand your mrstd classes off to someone else? Or maybe you don't want to keep compiling them? That's when you need a SWC. Unfortunately, the alpha build of FlexBuilder doesn't have any SWC support built-in, so you need to drop down to the command line. Run compc.exe -i source source source -o mrstd.swc Go back into FlexBuilder, and remove the mrstd directory from the classpath, and add the mrstd.swc file to the library path tab.

In my post you saw the functions that I want to make so I can use them all over without having to use mx.core.Application.application. every time I use one. Most of them I use in .as files not .mxml files. And the ones I use in the .mxml files I usually use as function calls. Like for a grid column that contains a date, I use the dateFunction parameter and give the function name. I have looked at the interface and class builder wizards. But didn't really get anywhere with them. I definatly need to optimize as much as I can as the applications I will be working on are going to be extensive in some cases. Can you point me somewhere that shows how to build a library that I can use in any code I have by just putting in the import mylib.whatever.*? Thanks Greg --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Roger Gonzalez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How so? A library isn't one file. You should package everything up by making a manifest file so that you can use your classes as MXML tags, and then use compc.exe to bundle a SWC.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 2:Package/Class problem
This is a part I didn't even get a chance to get into with 1.5 so im
coming kinda late in 2.
In my post you saw the functions that I want to make so I can use
them all over without having to
use mx.core.Application.application. every time I use one.
Most of them I use in .as files not .mxml files. And the ones I use
in the .mxml files I usually use as function calls. Like for a grid
column that contains a date, I use the dateFunction parameter and
give the function name.
I have looked at the interface and class builder wizards. But
didn't really get anywhere with them. I definatly need to optimize
as much as I can as the applications I will be working on are going
to be extensive in some cases.
Can you point me somewhere that shows how to build a library that I
can use in any code I have by just putting in the import
mylib.whatever.*?
Thanks
Greg

You should package everything up by making a manifest file so that
you
can use your classes as MXML tags, and then use compc.exe to bundle
a
SWC. You can also bundle in additional stuff like icons and CSS and
whatnot.
Its a much more efficient distribution and packaging mechanism!

[flexcoders] FLEX2: Date Cell Renderer Solved
It looks like :)
Ok, here is what I did. First in the MXML I created a Currency
Formater.
mx:CurrencyFormatter id=StdMoneyFormat
useThousandsSeparator=true/
Then in the dataGrid for the column I wanted to format I used the
labelFunction parameter
mx:DataGridColumn headerText=$ Prop. width=75
labelFunction=formatNumber columnName=DOLLAR_PROPOSED /
and in my Actionscript file I created a function.
import mx.controls.gridclasses.DataGridColumn;
public function formatNumber(dpItem:Object,
dgColumn:DataGridColumn):String {
return StdMoneyFormat.format(dpItem[dgColumn.columnName]);
}
unlike cellRenderer, in a dataGrid (**only**) the labelFunction
passes 2 items. The std dataObject that cellRenderer passes and
specificaly the column information. So I just do a simple return of
the dataObject indexed by the columnName in the dataGridColumn object.
Just as a note, there is also a columnNumber in the dataGridColum
object that would do exactly the same, just with the numerical index
value vs the enumerated index value.
This should work for all the data Formaters includeing Date.
**only** = Acording to the documentation, anything else that uses the
labelFunction only gets the dataObject since they are 1 dimential
arrays vs 2 dimentional grids. Plus if you specify one of the drop
in renderers it will adjust in all cases to send what they need. As
I understand it.

in Flex2 Sample Explorer. Thing is every example of sending data to
a popup I have found usually instead shows returning data :/
But I have a way I can easily send and recieve from a popup.
Here is the code im using.
This is the function that displays the popup.
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
// Error Handler Function
public function err(message:String, title:String):Void {
var errpop:MyPopup = MyPopup(PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,
MyPopup, true));
errpop.title = title;
errpop.messagebox.htmlText = message;
}
And here is the Popup File
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Panel xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml; width=500
height=503
borderStyle=outset cornerRadius=10 backgroundColor=#80
themeColor=#80 title=Error color=#FF
borderColor=#80
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
]]
/mx:Script
mx:TextArea id=messagebox width=100% height=100%
editable=false text=error backgroundColor=#FF
themeColor=#80/
mx:HBox width=100% horizontalAlign=center
mx:Button label=Close
click=PopUpManager.removePopUp(this)/
/mx:HBox
/mx:Panel
Key things to note in the popup function is that you are setting the
type of the popup handle to the popup's name. This little trick then
lets you access anything in the popup:Variables, Functions,
Components. In theory if you defined the popup handle variable
outside the function you could then be interactive if you made the
window non-model. I use model since I am using it to display error
messages.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex2: Popup Error
Ah. Very interesting. I just gave up on the X and did a
close button, which effectively did the same thing as figureing out
how to get it not to do that double click.

I believe the removePopUp method is being called twice... You will
find
if you click anywhere in the header of the titlewindow, the window
will
fire the click event (Which is set to close the window) and if you
click
on the close button, it fires the event twice. You get the null

because the window has already closed by the time the second remove
method tries to execute. I did not find this, but I say someone

mention this somewhere. Hope this helps

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 2: Where is the Timer Class
Hm. Will take a look at that as well. Would always be better to
use an pure internal doubleclick even. Will check it out when I
check out the mouse stuff as I would want it to detect if you moved
the mouse (to prevent the clicking two rows of a datagrid so quick it
registered a double).

BTW, all InteractiveObjects (superclass way up) dispatch a

not being passed through so you won't be able to assign the handler

MXML, you'll need to do it manually in AS.

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2: Where is the Timer Class
setInterval() still exists; it's now a function in the flash.util
package. But we do want folks to move to use Timer instead. Here's a
Flex 2.0 example of using Timer:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml;
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import flash.util.Timer;
import flash.util.TimerEvent;
import flash.util.TimerEventType;
private var timer:Timer;
private function startTimer():Void
{
timer = new Timer(1000);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEventType.TIMER,
timerHandler);
timer.start();
}
private function stopTimer():Void
{
timer.stop();
timer = null;
}
private function timerHandler(event:TimerEvent):Void
{
trace(timer);
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Button label=Start Timer click=startTimer();/
mx:Button label=Stop Timer click=stopTimer();/
/mx:Application
Here are a few things to note:
1. A Timer dispatches timer events which you handle like any other
event.
2. When a Timer is first created with 'new', it is stopped; you
have to
use the start() method to start it.
3. This examples creates and destroys a Timer object each time you
click
the Start and Stop buttons. (Setting timer = null allows it to be
garbage collected.) But you could also create a Timer object, say
at app
initialization, which you keep around, starting and stopping it
multiple
times.

So I add [Bindable] over it. Then it says I can't use [Bindable] on a non-public variable, so I add public before it.

state.

I think the best way to pass values to popup window is to use init

Declare variables in myPopup.mxml
For example
var firstName:String;
var lastName:String;
In the parent mxml file
Create an object. Assign values to above said attributes.
Example
var initObj:Object = new Object();
initObj.firstName = zz; // should match
variable declared in myPopup.mxml
initObj.lastName = xxx; // should match
variable
declared in myPopup.mxml
then pass this initObj

[flexcoders] Re: Ok, im lost with Flex 2
Ya. I understand that, but it seems like they threw the baby out with the bathwater and dumped everything they had done up to Flex 1.5 and started from scratch and just haven't built back up to even the level of the previous version. And I looked at that page first thing, and made all the changes, and still ended up with 100s of errors. I have also looked at the new Flex 2 Explorer and gone though the code in the as files it uses, and even when I include the same things they do, I get errors. 1.5 I had a fairly intricate and function application working, 2 and im having to start with the hello world tutorials to try and figure out why things are not working. I would stick with 1.5 at this point but we specificaly need to have the ability to create SWFs vs being dependent on the server, plus the trial only has 26 more days and we aint spending the money for 1.5 when 2 should be gold by the first half of next year.

Hehehe *raises hand as Flex Newbie* But I have been using Flash and Actionscript for 5+ years and have been coding CF since it's first Beta release. Plus I have a Degree in Business Computer Programing where I was fully educated in OOP with C++. I understand what you are saying, and there is a valid logic to it. There is a flaw to it as well. Its kinda like those party lines you call to meet a hot babe and all that you find is a bunch of guys. If you put all the n00bs like me in one room, and the experts in another, it will just be people who don't have any answers asking questions of people who don't have any answers. rofl Don't take any of my most recent posts wrong, I agree that Flex is great. We have an entire project, grant, and I have an offer for me to go to full time state emp specificaly because of Flex2. Its just frusterating as it seems most of the syntax etc I learned with Flex 1.5 is just causing errors now. I would have grave doubts that creating an all n00b area would benifit the n00bs, though I am sure it would benifit the pros :) Just my 2000 cents :D Greg --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Manuel Saint-Victor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've brought this up before and I'm going to go out on a limb again and suggest that we maybe create a Flex 2 noobs mailing list.

Last time I mentioned this it was more motivated by the sense that newbies needed a place to ask for help and then be directed to the docs or a Google search while the more knowledgeable guys can have a more productive environment. Before I believe that as pointed out to me -Flex's developer population was not yet at critical mass for this kind of partitioning. I have the feeling that this week will change that. Either way I think that this Flex 2 is the best thing since indoor plumbing. The workflow is fluid, the docs are light and informative and I very well might need a relationship counselor in the next few weeks or someone to keep my fiancee at whatever venue so that we don't have to break up while I stay glued to this computer.

[flexcoders] Row Height Overflow
I need the rows of a datagrid to stay at 1 line if none of the cells in that row is bigger then one line, but if one is I need that cell to wrap and the row to expand. I also only want used rows showing up to a max overall height and then show the scroll bar. However it seems all I can get the rows to do is ether by 1 line and not wrap, or all the rows be more then 1 line. Plus I can get it to only display the number of rows that are used.

[flexcoders] Re: Row Height Overflow
Ya, my mistake was I had a marginbottom=15. For some reason when you set the left and right margins it moves the outer edge in, but when you do the bottom, it effects every single row. Still though, it still leaves me with the problem of getting the height to adjust. IOW say it takes 30 lines to fill the screen. If the CFC returns 20, I don't want 20 result lines and 10 blank lines, I just want 20 lines. But if it returns 40 results, I just want 30 result lines and the scrollbar. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Manish Jethani [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 10/14/05, Greg Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need the rows of a datagrid to stay at 1 line if none of the cells in that row is bigger then one line, but if one is I need that cell to wrap and the row to expand.

[flexcoders] Cause and Effect
Ok. Lets say I have a search screen(btw the queries are running via a webservice to a set of CFCs). The search screen lets you choose between person, department, and company. Person Search returns a list of people you can select from. Department Search returns a list of departments you can select from. Company Search returns a list of companies you can select from. Then you click one of 4 tabs. When you click on a tab, and the search was for people, it uses there unique IDs in a search of what they are responsible for and returns that. If the search was for departments then a list of people in all of those departments has to be created so the seach can use that list of people's unique IDs. Same kinda thing for Company. Getting the list of people in all the departments is easy. The difficult part is how to get the second search that runs when you click the tab to wait until the the department call finishes to run it's search. Plus each tab will need to be able to do this. Obveously the simple approch would be that each sub search have it's own webservice operation and result handler. However this interface will have other tabs added later that have nothing to do with what im working on how save they draw there unquie person IDs from the same inital search. Yahoo!

[flexcoders] Re: Cause and Effect
It might help if I also actually asked a question I guess :) I need the department to people list to be generic, but depending on what tab you are on for the result event to be handled by a function based on the tab you ahve selected. I am guessing this means using a custom event that is dispatched by the generic result handler and then changing the event handler function by adding a new event listener. However I do not know how to do this eactly, nor do I know what to attack the listeners to with each tab. I have look in the documentation, but if the answer is there, I am just not getting it as I have tried different attacks and only get error messages. So 1, how would I create a custom event to use the dispatchEvent function when the dept2id result handler runs, and what do I need to dispatch the event from.

[flexcoders] Re: Cause and Effect
I am probably over-complicating it, thats always a possiblity. However the reason I can't is because the second search that actually gets used will be dependent on which of the 4 tabs you select. But the first search needs to stay the same. IOW for example 1. Search for Departments based on partial department name 2. Select Department from returned list 3. Click on Car Tab 4. Get the Unique IDs of every person in the list of selected departments 5. Get all the cars for all the people returned from step 4 adding a date range filter. 6. Double click on a car to view that car's details. BUT At Step 3 you can actualy click any of the following Click on Car Tab Click on DoorKey Tab Click on Employment File Tab Click on Room Tab in all 4 instances it would have to do Step 4, and other then sending the results to different second searchs (Car/DoorKey/EmploymentFile/Room) it would always be the same that you are taking a list of departments and generating a list of people's unique IDs who are in those departments. But since you only go get the people list from the departments when you click the tab, and at the same time it automaticaly submits a search for whatever that tab is about, it is a problem as when the, say, car search runs, the people list will not have had a chance to be populated. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tracy Spratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Perhaps you are over-complicating this.

Basicaly im trying to work around two issues. 1 I have a dev and a
prod version in diferent directories and would like to not have to
edit the WebService tag every time I move the dev to production.
Plus I have to keep changing the filename of the cfc to get Flex to
see the new code when I have edited it. I have tried a variety of
ways to get the cfcs not to create stubs or recreate stubs but
nothing works but chaning the filename.

You can't redefine the wsdl parameter of a webservice in 1.5 (you
can in
the upcoming 2.0). However if you're just trying to change the
server
to hit as opposed to the actual method definitions you can change
the
endpointURI for the service. Check the docs for more details on
that.

Unfortuately the server with the CFCs on it I do not have access to
the CF Admin interface.
This seems to be a difficulty when you use the WebService or
something. Glad you are not having this problem because it's
annoying. Apparently when you first call a CFC stubs are generated
in some directory. These prevent changes made to the cfc files to
actually work. I have tried many ways to force it to update but to
no avail.

Why not use a named service in flex-config so that the dev or

updating. Is the browser caching accidentally or is CF caching?

Re: [flexcoders] Calls to CFCs
Well the problem with it not passing solved itself somehow. Debugger
still wont let me watch variables though.
I tried the ? and while it prevented it from hanging, when I go do one
search I get a message about unsupported type in stream so I just went
back to the webservice. Even tried diffferent tweeks to the cfc etc
and it wouldn't work.
Peter Farland wrote:
Note that my suggestion was
to append the ? query string marker, please let me know if this
resolves the issue as your initial symptoms described the issue with
AppendToGatewayUrl exactly.
Also, the problem is that
Flash Remoting (and hence stillFlex's RemoteObject)with ColdFusion
introduced the concept of named arguments. That is, if your CFC is
expecting a Struct as a single argument and you're sending it an
object, then it won't work as the CFC proxy between the gateway
interprets them as "named arguments" and thus looks for parameters to
match each of the keys in the AS Object. Try adding a second, dummy
variable to the CFC function and let me know if this solves the issue.

A wild guess: try adding a "/" at the end of the gateway url.
endpoint="http://cfxtest.research.unc.edu/flashservices/gateway/"
I've seen USERID and alike being added to the gateway url when making
remote calls.
In that case, without the ending '/', the gateway url gets messed up.
Might not be the case here, but it's the first thing I'd check ;-)

[flexcoders] Search while you type?
I return a list from a database into a datagrid. I then have a text
entry field with a keydown event set to call a function.
The function runs though the currently loaded like, compares what is in
the text entry field's .text property and creates a array with only
those entries then resets the dataprovider parameter of the datagrid to
the filtered list. Here is the code
private function filterlist() {
var TempObject:Object = new Object();
var RunningArray:Array = new Array();
for(var i=0; i OTD_TECH_RESULTS.dataProvider.length; i++){
TempObject = OTD_TECH_RESULTS.dataProvider[i];
if ( TempObject.INTERNAL_CASE_NUMBER.indexOf(search.text)) {
RunningArray.push(TempObject);
}
}
OTD_TECH_RESULTS.dataProvider = RunningArray;
OTD_TECH_RESULTS.dataProvider.dispatchEvent({type: modelChanged});
}
INTERNAL_CASE_NUMBER is one of the columns
What happens is that it gives me no entries once I type the first
character, and even when I got it to return results it wouldn't seem to
update once I hit a second key unless I hit backspace first.
I am using indexOf because I couldn't find a find command anywhere.
Any ideas how I can make this work?

Unfortunately in AS1/AS2 the
Flash Player does not recognize the Object form of String, Boolean or
Number type for serialization purposes so it sends them (yes, oddly) as
an unsupported type when serialized as AMF which the remoting gateway
rejects. If you use the "primitive" forms of these types in
ActionScript:
var s:String = "foo";
var
b:Boolean = true;
var n:Number = 4;
It should
work fine.
Out of
curiosity, how are you generating the data that is sent to the CFC? Are
you loading a web service first by any chance and then trying to send
that result to a CFC via remote object?
Can you
post the cffunction and accompanying cfargument tags
from your CFC method that you're invoking? Can you also post the
ActionScript line you're using to call the RemoteObject abstraction of
your CFC?
Thanks,
Pete

Re: [flexcoders] Calls to CFCs
Here is the start of the CFC function
cffunction name="get_tech_search" access="remote"
returntype="array"
cfargument name="before" type="string"
cfargument name="after" type="string"
cfargument name="innovators" type="array"
I tried the change on the variables and nothing.
I then replaced the variables I was sending with '' and in the cfc made
innovators a string vs array and still got the error message.
Peter Farland wrote:
I could probably solve your JRun
errors too if you posted them... but that aside, I can help you turn on
server side tracing for the CFMX 7 version of the gateway what you
need to do is look out for the gateway-config.xml file that is specific
to the gateway that you're calling. It might be under:
/WEB-INF/coldfusion/gateway-config.xml
I believe the servlet that's
mapped to /flashservices will have an init param in /WEB-INF/web.xml
that points you to the location of the configuration file that the
gateway is using.
Anyway, in this file you'd set
the logger to debug:
logger level="Debug"(whatever
gateway logger implementation CF uses would be listed here... I think
it was coldfusion.flash.ColdFusionLogger if I remember
correctly)/logger
You should then be able to look
at the log to see a dump of the AMF traffic that went through the
gateway's serializer... this might give you a clue as to which
parameters are being sent to your CFC method.
I think CFMX 7 redirects log
info to a flash.log. If you started JRun from the command line and
wanted to just see this info on the console you could always switch to
use the DefaultLogger:
logger
level="Error"flashgateway.log.DefaultLogger/logger
Also, I'd still like to look at
the cffunction and cfargument tag signatures for your
CFC method
In any case, can you try this
instead:
var otd_tech_after_db:String = "";
var otd_tech_before_db:String = "";
If it's not that, can you try narrowing down
which attribute is causing it in the call (i.e. by sending null or
something you know is a primitive type or a structure that could not
possibly contain non-primitive types for the aforementioned Boolean,
String or Class types... i.e. don't necessarily trust an API to return
you a primitive until you've tracked down the cause)?

Re: [flexcoders] Search while you type?
I did some sniffin around and got mine to work right. For anyone
interested I made a kinda generic version below.
// sourceArray = any array
you are currently using as a datasource, most likely it will be
preloaded with entries
// search = the ID of the text entry field you want to use while typing
private function
filterlist() {
var TempObject:Object = new Object(); // This will hold a source
structure
var RunningArray:Array = new Array(); // This will become the new
dataSource for the datagrid
var compString:String = new String(); // This will have just the
element of the TempObject you want to test
// Start Looping over the original datasource
for(var i=0; i sourceArray.length; i++){
TempObject = sourceArray[i]; // Assign the current
source row structure to the TempObject
compString = TempObject.TITLE; // Assign the comp(are)String to
the Element you want to filter on
// check of the text property of most likly a text field, if it is
in the compString
if ( compString.indexOf(String(search.text)) = 0 ) {
RunningArray.push(TempObject); //If it is a match, add the row
from the source to the filtered array
}
}
destinationDataGrid.dataProvider = RunningArray; // Rebind the
DataGrid to the new filtered array
destinationDataGrid.dataProvider.dispatchEvent({type:
"modelChanged"}); // Dont know if this is needed, may work without.
}
No wildcards or anything like that are needed, esentialy its
just like searching with the astrix wild character on each end of
whatever you type. Its pretty fast since the data is already loaded
into memeory
Hope this helps someone

[flexcoders] Comparing Structure Elements - Not Working
I have 2 Datagrids. One gets populated by a call to a CFC, the other
starts databound to an empty array
The Source Datagrid has a list of names. I let the person click on,
then click a button. Then a function checks to make sure the person is
not already in the list. If they are not in the list, it adds them to
the list.
Both have a structure of
PERSON_ID
FULL_NAME
DEPT_CODE
DEPT_NAME
The comparison is on PERSON_ID which is a unique number stored in the
SQL Database as test. SelectionList is bound to the destination Datagrid
and here is the function that brings in the data for the source grid.
private function doResultGetPeople(result:Array):Void{
var TempObject:Object = new Object();
var GetPeopleArray:Array = new Array();
for(var i=0; i result.length; i++){
TempObject = result[i];
GetPeopleArray.push(TempObject);
}
IS_RESULTS.dataProvider = GetPeopleArray;
Selections.visible=true;
}
Here is my code that is always evaluating true
var SelectionList:Array = new Array();
function addfromIS():Void {
var SrcItem =
IS_RESULTS.dataProvider.getItemAt(IS_RESULTS.selectedIndex);
if(SelectionList.length 0) {
for (var i=0; iSelectionList.length; i++) {
var CompItem = SelectionList.getItemAt(i);
if(SrcItem.Person_ID != CompItem.Person_ID) {
SelectionList.addItem(SrcItem);
}
}
} else {
SelectionList.addItem(SrcItem);
}
}

Nope, leaving the comparison as below

results in me being able to add the same name over and over again
if (SrcItem.Person_ID == CompItem.Person_ID) {
lets me add one name but no other names.

Re: [flexcoders] Comparing Structure Elements - Not Working
I got it
var isNew:Boolean = true;
function addfromIS():Void {
var SrcItem:String =
IS_RESULTS.dataProvider[IS_RESULTS.selectedIndex].PERSON_ID;
isNew = true;
if (SelectionList.length0) {

if (SrcItem == CompItem) {
isNew = false;
}
}
}
if (isNew) {
Person_List.dataProvider.addItem(IS_RESULTS.dataProvider[IS_RESULTS.selectedIndex]);
}
}
The key was getting the info through the datagrid instead of
directly from the dataProvider. I have absolutely no idea why. If
anyone can shed light on this for me it would be apreciated. This is
only the 3rd day I've been working with Flex, and with no prior
education on Flex. :)
