RE: [flexcoders] Sample code for printing from a DataGrid:doesnot work?
Hi All,
Well so far my printing has made me go baldlol but seriously.
I have got it to print a header on one page the datagrid contents on another
page, and my footer on the last page.
Not fun at all. I for what the server costs you'd expect better functionality
than this. Little things like this make clients unhappy and in the end MM
looses because if this issue doesn't get taken care of quick this will really
hinder the future of Flex.
Hey Matt! I agree with Robert. there should be some kind of
mx:FlashPaper tag
for v2.0 of Flex. that would make my day.
also could you look at my print function located in this email below
and help me
get a headder on each page w/ a footer on the last page?
thanks,

Quoting Robert Brueckmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Tracy,
It's funny you send this email because I posted something about printing
last night...I am using the same exact code you're using from the
example on MM's site and I would say it works intermittently, at best,
when I try to print my datagrid...at first, if you read my post from
last night, I thought it was only when I tried to print it in landscape,
because the first few times I tested it, it was actually working in
portrait but when I switched the landscape, it stopped printing...like
you said, it printed the correct number of pages but only the visible
content was printed...then I tried to print again in portrait layout and
it stopped working in that format as well...very strange behavior. The
whole printing functionality in Flex is very weak and is sort of the
bane of my existence at the moment being as the application I developed
is a reporting application. Right now, as terrible as it sounds, I tell
the users to launch the PDF version of the report they're viewing and
use that to print anything they want...thing is not everything in the
application is available in PDF format...maybe Flex 2.0 will come around
to this...I really hope so anyways. Ideally, if they could provide a
mx:FlashPaper component for Flex...now THAT would be the epitome of
awesomeness.
I'm going to continue to investigate this, as I hope you and Art will to
and maybe we can come up with something collaboratively...because there
doesn't seem to be a quick fix to this conundrum.
Best,
Rob

The problem now is that when you drag a row, the pop-up happens and it also does the dragging and dropping. The first thing that comes to mind is to make a cell renderer that acts like an edit button, so you have to click on a specific column which has a button in it to edit an item.

Could you give me a hint on how to add it to my code?

Did you see getColumnIndex(name) in the ASDoc?
And each DataGridColumn has a columnName property too.

Subject: [flexcoders] How to reference column name in my code?
Hi All,
included is a snippet of code that hides shows columns in the datagrid.
How do I reference columnName instead of columns[i] ?? I also have code that
switches columns ( thanks Manish ;) ) but when I switch a column my code
hided
the wrong column because it is referencing the columns[i] instead of the
columnName.
help would be nice.
thanks,
-Art
// Hide Columns Code:
var initialRender : Boolean = true;
var columns : Array = new Array();
var columnWidths : Array = new Array();
function getAllColumns() {
if ( initialRender ) {
for ( var i=0; i historyDg.columnCount; i++ ) {
columns[i] = historyDg.columns[i];
}
initialRender = false;
}
}
function layoutColumns()
{
tabNav_1.selectedChild = details;
var count : Number = 0;
historyDg.removeAllColumns();
if ( wMonthCheck.selected )
{
historyDg.addColumnAt(count, columns[0]);
count++;
}
if ( hoursCheck.selected )
{
historyDg.addColumnAt(count, columns[1]);
count++;
}
}

RE: [flexcoders] any good examples out there for Flex EJBs?
Hi Robert, Could you provide a simple example please? thanks, -Art Quoting Robert Stuttaford [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I've successfully integrated Flex with an EJB that exposed it's logic via the old Flash Remoting for Java. Simply referenced the Flash Remoting bean declarations and it worked like a bomb! -Original Message- From: Steven Webster [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 February 2005 08:40 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] any good examples out there for Flex EJBs? Art, any good examples out there on Flex EJBs ( Enterprise Java Beans ) integration? a link to source code tutorial would be helpful. There is no need for a specific example of Flex and EJBs; let me explain: Assuming for now that your EJB architecture is one of Entity Beans (whether CMP or BMP, EJB 1.x or 2.x, it doesn't matter) and perhaps you have a Statless Session EJB as a facade pattern... I would strongly advocate that you provide a POJO business delegate class in front of your Stateless Session EJB, that presents a service interface to Flex, that has no knowledge of the underlying implementation of the services (ie that it is an EJB tier). Your plain old business delegate should deal in value objects/ transfer objects, that you likely have anyway as part of your EJB tier. Flex will then simply perform RemoteObject calls onto your POJO business delegate, and your business delegate will handle the interaction with your EJB tier. In Reality J2EE - Architecting for Flash MX which I wrote in 2002, I had an example (of an online banking app) with a Flash MX front end, and using Flash Remoting (which is the underlying technology in RemoteObject with Flex) to invoke a J2EE business tier that was built using CMP/CMR Entity Beans running in JBoss appserver. Though it is possible with Remoting to remote directly onto an EJB home interface, I showed how a much simpler/easier and arguably (if I'm arguing :) ) better practice was to front the EJB tier with a POJO business delegate. So that's my thinking -- present a POJO architecture on the server, and just stick with the regular patterns for RemoteObject invocation, passing of value objects over the wire, maintaining common object model of VOs/DTOs on the client and server, as is advocated by the Cairngorm microarchitecture, and as is discussed in Developing Rich Clients with Macromedia Flex (and the chapter we cover all this stuff in, is a free download from http://flexbook.iterationtwo.com/) Some links for you: Reality J2EE - Architecting for Flash MX http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0321158849/qid=1108060782/sr=8 -1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/102-4541727-7040959?v=glances=booksn=507846 Developing Rich Clients with Macromedia Flex http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0321255666/qid=1108060843/sr=1 -1/ref=sr_1_1/102-4541727-7040959?v=glances=books Free Chapter (Chapter 20) http://www.theserverside.com/articles/article.tss?l=Flex Cairngorm http://www.richinternetapps.com/archives/94.html I hope this helps !

RE: [flexcoders] using implements mx.core.MXMLObject in a class?
Hi Matt,
could you give me an example of how to add a child to a viewstack through a
class with the corresponding mxml? it could just be a partial code, I can
figure out the rest. its the start that I'm having problems with now.
also what you meant by calling at least some functions you were saying
to add an
init() function to smth like the initilise or creationComplete tag in mxml?
thanks,
-Art
Quoting Matt Chotin [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
The only function that MXMLObject requires is the initialized method. It's
essentially the equivalent of the initialize event on a UIObject
derivative.
I think what you're doing is fine, the only thing that I'm guessing is an
issue is the timing of when setupListener is called. If you were to call it
in the initialized method I'm betting it would be too early because it's
possible not all of your UI objects have been created. But no biggie, maybe
you just call setupListener in the initialize event handler of the document
itself. Don't limit yourself to trying to have absolutely no code in your
MXML, if you have one or two event handlers to help get the rest of your
code setup I don't see that as being a problem.

Subject: [flexcoders] using implements mx.core.MXMLObject in a class?
Hi All,
Can someone help me understand the useage of the implementation of the
MXMLObject in MXML componen class based in Actionscript?
I've been trying since this morning but the hardest part is finding
documentation on the subject ( I waen to livedocs, MM site
documentation that
came with flex/fb first ) I still can't find the info I'm looking for.
I'm using:
class MyClassName implements mx.core.MXMLObject
{
//my constructor, member, pub/priv code here.
}
My problem is I don't really know what are the proper members, functions,
etc.
to use when I'm building a Codless mxml document and a AS Class controler
for
that mxml document.
I'm trying to build a class that adds/removes children from a viewstack
navigate through it too. all w/ simple click functions.
my code is posted below, can someone give me a little more insight?
thanks,
-Art
