[flexcoders] Re: Streaming Video to Flex
Thanks Nathan. Problem is, camera is not attached to computer with the Flex app. I want one of 10 Flex apps around the Intranet to be able to attach to any camera's stream, and I don't want to use FMS. I have looked high and low and can't find a camera that puts out FLV. And from what I gather from Flex, streaming can only be done from an FMS source or some other software that supports RTMP. Any thoughts?

[flexcoders] URLRequest using local cache but I don't want it to.
Hi everyone, I have a Flex 2 Loader component that I pass a URLRequest to the load method. We have an issue that the SWF we're trying to load via http sometimes comes up with a 304 error from IIS. The problem is, no data is returned and I don't get the SWF. I've tried inserting Pragma-no-cache and Cache-Control-no-cache as requestHeaders, but I can't seem to get around the problem. We're seeing that most loads work fine, but occasionally IIS will report 304 and I don't get the SWF. Any ideas? Thanks!!! Phil
[flexcoders] List ItemRenderer and variableRowHeight
I have a List component with a custom item renderer. The List is set
to variableRowHeight=true.
In the renderer is a regular TextArea component that I want to grow in
size vertically for the longer data strings.
My problem is I don't quite understand how to automate the process of
sizing the TextArea and then the renderer height from the
TextArea.textHeight property.
I can successfully do it manually, attaching a click event to the
TextArea, that calls the following function in the renderer:
private function updateHeight(ev:MouseEvent):void {
ev.target.height = ev.target.textHeight + 5;
this.height = ev.target.y + ev.target.height + 25;
}
This perfectly sizes each item when I click on them.
The problem is I can't get it to function properly when I try to size
them from an event representing the item's creation. I have tried
sizing on the following events:
1) renderer creationComplete and added events
2) in the data setter override function for the renderer
No matter what I try to do, automated sizing produces incorrect
results. I am sure I just don't understand - not the first time!!!
Thanks for any help!!!

[flexcoders] DateFormatter and Date Timezone Issue
To illustrate this issue, I have the following application:
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute creationComplete=init()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
private var _date:Date;
private function init():void {
_date = new Date();
f1.text = _date.toString();
f2.text = df.format(_date);
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:DateFormatter id=df formatString=MM/DD/YY HH:NN /
mx:VBox
mx:Text id=f1 /
mx:Text id=f2 /
/mx:VBox
/mx:Application
The output in the two fields shows:
Tue Feb 26 16:16:32 GMT-0800 2008
02/26/08 17:16
Why does the date.toString show correct time, but the formatted date
shows GMT-0700 instead? Don't they both use the client timezone?
This is a pretty simple example, I would expect both outputs would be
the same time (clients timezone).
Any ideas?
Thanks, Phil

Thanks Doug - that was it. Sometimes you just can't see it even when the answer is staring you in the face on the help page! Thanks again, Phil
[flexcoders] DataService.createItem problem
Hi everyone,
I have a DataService component that is working fine for the fill and
sync operations. My problem is that when I try to use createItem to
add a record, I get this error:
[RPC Fault faultString=Missing identity properties: recid
faultCode=Local.Call.Failed faultDetail=null]
I am using createItem like this:
var newIssue:ProjectIssue = new ProjectIssue();
newIssue.fld1 = xyz;
.
.
projectIssuesDS.createItem(newIssue);
I do not populate the recid field (since that is filled in on the
server after the new id value is added by the db.) I tried making it 0
for the createItem, but that makes no difference.
The ProjectIssue class' first field is recid so I don't know how the
newIssue could be missing that. All fields in ProjectIssue are public.
Here is the ProjectIssue.as (DTO):
package dto
{
[Managed]
[RemoteClass(alias=inteliseapm.ProjectIssue)]
public class ProjectIssue
{
public var recid:int;
public var projid:int;
public var projstatusid:int;
public var opened:Date;
public var closed:Date;
public var reportedby:String;
public var enteredby:int;
public var location:String;
public var shipyardcat:Boolean;
public var equipcat:Boolean;
public var softwarecat:Boolean;
public var productioncat:Boolean;
public var upgradecat:Boolean;
public var infocat:Boolean;
public var severity:int;
public var tags:String;
public var surveysent:Boolean;
public var surveyrcvd:Boolean;
public var surveyemail:String;
public var issuesummary:String;
public var vesselname:String;
public function ProjectIssue()
{
}
}
}
Any ideas? Thanks!!!

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 2.0.1: itemRenderer won't get printed using PrintDataGrid
Hi Muzak, Do you know of any way to apply the same logic, but as a MovieClip instead of a Bitmap? I have a swf that loads in a SWFLoader and I want to take the content of that loader (as a MovieClip) and duplicate it so I can put it in the display list in other areas of my application at the same time. The content of the SWFLoader needs to remain vector so it can be zoomed effectively. duplicateMovieClip doesn't exist any more and any attempt to assign the completed content of one SWFLoader to another's source (so it doesn't have to load it via http) removes that content from the first component before moving it to the other. Thanks for any insight you might have! Phil
[flexcoders] Re: Flex 2.0.1: itemRenderer won't get printed using PrintDataGrid
Muzak, Thanks so much for your examples. I have it working using the ByteArray method. I couldn't use the MovieClip example because it still is moving a single copy from Loader to Loader, but with the ByteArray, I can make multiple Loaders load the same ByteArray, and they are separate unique instances. Thanks again! Phil
RE: [flexcoders] Re: DuplicateMovieClip functionality in Flex 2
Mark, Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression that AddChild would simply put the object on the display list, not duplicate it. My goal is to load the swf(movieclip) once then duplicate it so it can be put on the display list at multiple places in the app. Any ideas on that? Thanks.
