RE: [flexcoders] Returning 'this' from an overridden method?
The short answer is that there is no way to do what you want for the
time being.
What you are looking for is a language feature called covariant return
types. In certain languages (C++, Java) you can have your subclass
redefine the type that is returned by a method.
This would be a great thing to get into the AS language, but it is not
there now. There are further wrinkles when you consider how you would
extend properties in a similar way (I wrote about the issues at
http://kuwamoto.org/2007/01/22/covariant-property-types/).

Subject: [flexcoders] Returning 'this' from an overridden

Please pardon this simple-minded question from an AS3 novice.
My base class often returns 'this' from methods which makes it
convenient to write code like:
camera.move( 10, 12 ).rotateX( 45 ).rotateY( 90 );
The problem comes when code extends the base class and overrides
one
of these functions. The compiler insists, correctly, that the
return
type of an overriding function must match the one in the base
class.
What I want to do is return the 'this' object that is of the
type of
the derived class. Is this possible?
The following is a contrived example to demonstrate. It won't
compile because the overridden function in the derived class
wants to
return a type of MyCamera rather than Camera:
public class Camera
{
var x:int = 0;
var y:int = 0;
public function move( x:int, y:int ) :Camera
{
this.x += x;
this.y += y;
return( this );
}
}
public class MyCamera extends Camera
{
override public function move( x:int, y:int ) :MyCamera
{
super.move( x, y );
if( x 0 ) x = 0;
if( y 0 ) y = 0;
return( this );

RE: [flexcoders] Overall consensus of using the this keyword
The "this" keyword refers to the outermost tag that is used in the mxml file. It doesn't matter where in the file you say "this". If you use it on an event handler on a button inside an application called foo.mxml, "this" refers to the application tag. The only exception to this is if you use the Component tag. In that case, the "this" keyword refers to the embedded component whenever you are inside the Component tag. Except for the component issue, details can be found here: http://kuwamoto.org/2006/07/14/flex-tags-and-as-classes-the-simple-version/ http://kuwamoto.org/2006/07/18/flex-tags-and-as-classes-continued/ -Sho From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike AndersonSent: Thursday, August 10, 2006 3:14 PMTo: flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: [flexcoders] Overall consensus of using the "this" keyword Hello All,I am curious about the "this" keyword, as it relates to .MXML files.As far as I know, you don't treat ActionScript any differently when it'scontained within .MXML files.

RE: [flexcoders] better to use mxml or actionscript for new component?
My guess is that the AS version is more efficient, although
I haven't checked this.
To see what the compiler is doing, you can use the -keep

any particular MXML file.

g.beginFill(data.backgroundColor);
g.drawRect(0, 0, unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
g.endFill();
}

While there is no way to get Flex Builder to delete things the "kind and gentle" way, there is a really great workaround. Right click on the project and choose "Restore from local history".

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Referencing States from Custom Components
Hi Ethan.
The short answer to your question is that parent.currentState = 'touchOptions' would work (but see caveats below). If you're just doing a quick and dirty prototype, this might be enough.
The long answer to your question is that if you want to build a large scale app, you probably don't want the menu directly setting the current state of its parent, because it would be fragile. For example, if you decided to put the sidebar menu inside of a VBox for layout reasons, the code above would break.
For the real answer, you probably want to send an event from the sidebar menu, which is then caught by the parent, which should change its current state in response to that.
I don't have time to write working code right now, as I have to meet people for dinner (east coast time.. working in Boston this week), but it would look something like this:
SendSidebarMenu.mxml
--
Script
public function sendNavigateMessage(var where : String)
{
var event : Event = new Event(navigate);
event.where = where; // might need to cast to Object here to avoid compiler warning.
dispatchEvent(event);
}
/Script
...LinkButton click=dispatchEvent(new Event(navigate)
SendStates.mxml
--
HBox initialize=onInit()
Script
public function onInit()
{
sendMenu.addEventListener(navigate, onNavigate);
}
public funciton onNavigate(event: Event) : void
{
currentState = event.where; // might need to cast to Object here.
}
/Script
/HBox

RE: [flexcoders] What happened to mx.utils.Deletage?
Hi Chris.
Roughly speaking, you do something like this:
myService.someMethod(arg1, arg2);
myService.addEventListener(result, resultMethod);
Of course, as you illustrate, this will not work if you are calling
multiple methods on myService, because you need a way of figuring out
which method you are getting the result for. As far as I know, you need
to do some of your own plumbing to make this happen.
Here is one way to do it:
function initializeStuff() : void
{
myService.addEventListener(result, resultHandler);
}
function doStuff() : void
{
var call = myService.someMethod(arg1, arg2);
call.resultHandler = actualResultHandler;
}
function resultHandler(event: ResultEvent) : void
{
var call : Object = event.call;
if (call.resultHandler != null)
{
call.resultHandler.call(null, event)
}
}
function actualResultHandler(event: ResultEvent) : void
{
}

Subject: [flexcoders] What happened to mx.utils.Deletage?
Hi, long time reader first time poster. OK, just started reading
yesterday, but anyway. First off, I am working with Flex 2 Beta 2
I'm trying to add resultHandlers to async method calls at method
invocation time (this approach is outlined in the 'Developing Rich
Clients with Flex' book). I have also done a very similar approach
with Flash and Remoting. So code that used to work is like this:
var pendingCall = myService.someMehtod(arg:Type, arg2:Type);
pendingCall.resultHandler = mx.utils.Delegate.create(this,
resultMethod);
with result method being some local method. Anyway, now I can't
locate the mx.utils.Delegate class for one thing. I did, through
viewing errors, find that the pendingCall object with be of type
'mx.rpc.AsyncToken', I tried to addEventListener, but I still got an
error that resultHandler was not set on the pendingCall. Anyone have
any good ideas here? How do I properly attach a resultHandler to an
AsyncToken in Flex 2 Beta 2?
Thanks for the help!

RE: [flexcoders] What happened to mx.utils.Deletage?
Not exactly sure what you mean by multicasts. Do you mean
multicasting for events? If so, that already exists.
myService.addEventListener("result",
resultHandler1);
myService.addEventListener("result", resultHandler2); //
both of these will be called.
myService.myMethod();
The problem I was talking
about occurs when you call multiple methods on the same service object.
function
callStuff()
{
myService.myFirstMethod();
myService.addEventListenter("result", myFirstHandler);
myService.mySecondMethod();
myService.addEventListener("result", mySecondHandler);
}
function
myFirstHandler(event: Event)
{
//
this gets called when either myFirstMethod() or mySecondMethod() returns a
result.
}
function
mySecondHandler(event: Event)
{
//
this gets called when either myFirstMethod() or mySecondMethod() returns a
result.
}
There may be a way that
multicasts can help here, but I can't figure it out...

RE: [flexcoders] Flex2:Need quick answer
There is no restriction in how SWFs are deployed. However, there are security issues in the player which can trip you up if you are not careful. To make sure you are running things in exactly the same way: 1) Open up your run configration by clicking on the triangle menu next to the Run button and choosing Run... from the menu. 2) Click on the application you are trying to run and look for the section called URL or path to launch. 3) Make sure you are running the SWF or HTML file at the same path as specified. If the path is a URL, make sure you are using the same URL to run the application. 4) You may also want to make sure that you are using the same browser when running from FB and outside of FB. After these steps, if you are still not seeing the same results, then you have found a mysterious bug. -Sho -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Johnson Sent: Monday, October 31, 2005 6:05 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Flex2:Need quick answer I knowtice that if I just try to run the html/swf directly I don't get any of the data, iow I get my initial drop box, but without anything in it.

However, you could bypass the proxy and then use crossdomain.xml. All youre choice. In Flex2 you will need the enterprise data services to have access to the proxy. So to do what you want, and not rely on crossdomain.xml in Flex2 you need the more expensive (in line with Flex 1.5) version.

Hi all,
I'm currently trying Flex 2 and the new State feature.
I'd like to do some kind of fullscreen button.
I managed to do that in Flex 2 but I have some problems.
First of all I need to set the width and height back in a new State.
Switching back to the Base State (setting currentState to null) is not
working 'cause the panel keep the width and height of the fullscreen
state.
That's why I'm using the restore state. Ain't it a bug in the state
feature?
Or is there something I am not doing correctly?
See code below.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 web-service driving me up the wall
Hi Kenlie.
You are almost there!
You have three choices:
1) Add a crossdomain.xml file to the
server. 2) Request the HTML file from a
web server on the same domain as your server (in this case,
localhost).
3) Create a proxy.
You can find documentation on this
here:
http://labs.macromedia.com/wiki/index.php/Flex:Accessing_Data
I
understand your question about things getting harder, but I'm afraid there's
nothing we can do about it at this point.
The
security rules are no different than in Flex 1.0 or Flex 1.5. The security rules
need to be there to prevent malicious websites from creating Flex applications
that do bad things, such as collecting private information.
The
reason you never noticed the security rules in Flex 1.0/1.5 is that the server
automatically creates proxies for you. The reason we can't do that in Flex
Builder 2.0 is that proxies *must* run on the server, and Flex Builder 2.0
doesn't have a server component.
Later,
when Flex Enterprise Services 2.0 is available, you will be able to do things
the way that you were used to doing them in Flex 1.0/1.5.

telling my that i can't acces the URL...now the port for the server is http://localhost:8099/soap thats the
address to the server on my machine.. so i know that you have to alow the
security to access the URL, so in my flex application i create a method and call
it on the initialize method for the Application:I tried
Security.allowDomain('http://localhost:8099/soap') doesn't
workI tried Security.allowDomain('*'); still doesn't work..So maybe
am doing something wrong if that is the case could someone be kind enough to
point me in the right directionFirst of all my application isn't being
delivered by a server such as jboss or Apache, i just have it on my desktop and
i launch it by double clicking on the htm file.. cause as we all know its
standalone swfs.Even if i allowed the domains nothing changed.. i need
some answers.. examples something cause I personally don't know why and when
using web-services became so difficult..Thanks in Advance-- Kenlie BrowneSoftware Developer

RE: [flexcoders] how many it costs flex server
To be clear... a) We are working on an updated server product that has significant new functionality, but we are not at a point where we can talk about that as freely as we can with the tool. b) As you know from our recent announcements, we are getting ready to introduce a public alpha of Flex, Flex Builder, and Flash Player. However, these are alphas, and will not be suitable for production environments, so depending on your situation, very soon you may not need one might be overstating it a bit. :-) -Sho -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Manish Jethani Sent: Friday, October 07, 2005 11:41 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] how many it costs flex server On 10/7/05, andrehfraga [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: how many it costs flex server?

RE: [flexcoders] How to load a .mdb from a flex application?
In general, you cannot launch arbitrary applications from
Flex for the same reason that you cannot launch arbitrary applications from
HTML: security.
If you need to execute server-side code, it needs to happen
through a web server, such as .Net, PHP, CF, or any J2EE server. If you need to
execute client-side code, you need to create an ActiveX control or find some
other way to get the browser to execute the code for you.

RE: [flexcoders] Newby: How to use Manage Sites
I asked some of the folks from the Flex Builder team, and here's what I found out: * You should define a site for each "server", such as http://localhost:8700/flex/, or http://localhost:8700/samples/ * If you have multiple projects on each server, (i.e., multiple flex apps within /flex/ or /samples/), do NOT create new sites for each one. The reason is that Flex Builder needs to have access to WEB-INF, which must be at the top level of your site. Also, if you are flipping back and forth between a local server and a remote testing server, set up a testing server in your site definition. Hope this helps! -Sho From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 27, 2005 5:28 AMTo: flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: [flexcoders] Newby: How to use "Manage Sites" I'm new to Flex and keep having trouble with theManage Sites thing in flexbuilder, so I was hopingsomeone could explain how MM intended for it to beused.
