[flexcoders] how to access assets in RSL file
Not sure what I am doing wrong here, I would think this would work. I have a Flex Library project called that builds to TestLib.swc, this swc has several components and some common assets which are SWF files. So for example in this swc I have com/x/y/z/MyTest.swf. I then have a Flex project which uses this SWC file. I attempt to use SWFLoader with URL=com/x/y/MyTest.swf This doesn't work, I have tried a ton of other ways to access the SWF thats in the SWC file. Whats the correct way to access assets in the SWC file? Thanks
[flexcoders] assets used in SWC file
I have several component which use various assets, images, and some SWF's for several components. These are all build into a Flex Library project, for example TestLib.swc I access the assets like this for example. TestComp.mxml mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=100% height=100% backgroundImage=assets/backgrounds/application- background.jpg . . . mx:SWFLoader verticalCenter=0 left=0 right=0 source=com/login/assets/login_animation.swf scaleContent=false autoLoad=true/ . . . mx:Canvas/ Both of the application-background.jpg and the login-animation.swf are included in the SWC file. The problem arises if I use TestComp in an application that includes the SWC file. It never loads the assets correctly. I can get this to work if I Embed the assets, but in some cases I cannot do this because I don't know the image names for specific components until runtime. Anyway to get this to work without using the Embed tag?
[flexcoders] Re: how to access assets in RSL file
To give more details on the problem. Basically I have a Flex Library Project called for example TestLib.swc this has a flex component in it called MyComp.mxml. In this component I have a SWFLoader that points to an asset in the same SWC file. I refer to it via url=com/bmc/assets/myimage.png When I create a Flex project that includes TestLib.swc and uses MyComp.mxml, myimage.png is never found. I have a component which needs to dynamically load images at runtime and this component is in a SWC file. I want to use this component in my flex applications, but alas the images just don't show up. Any ideas? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Roger Gonzalez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: SWC files are used at compile time. SWFLoader is runtime. Won't work. (Note that if you caused MyTest.swf to be embedded instead of included when you built TestLib.swc, you can then refer to it as a class from your main project, and just instantiate an object of type SpriteAsset, MovieClipAsset, or MovieClipLoaderAsset, depending on how you embedded it.) -rg From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jgraham_us Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2006 12:15 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] how to access assets in RSL file Not sure what I am doing wrong here, I would think this would work.

So you want to drag from the grid onto an image? I would think it would work just like any other component.

[flexcoders] DividedBox question - divider position
Is there an easy way to set a minimum position for a divider in a DividedBox? For example. I have three panels in a VDividedBox when I drag divider 0 up I want it to stop and not size past the headerHeight of the panel, in essence not cover the panel header up. I assume this can be done by overriding the DividedBox, but was wondering if there was an easier way. I have tried setting the minHeight on the panel but that appears to have no effect.

[flexcoders] modalTransparency and color question in Flex 1.5
I am able to set the modalTransparency and get a fade like effect when my modal dialogs popup, right now its a white fade, I read a post on JesterXL's from a while back on this and he said you can set the 'Modal' color property in the halo.fla or the StandardComponents.fla. How can this be done in Flex 1.5? I want to make the modal transparency color something darker.

[flexcoders] Re: Sending Updated Data Back to Java
Make sure the objects in your ArrayList don't contain any static
public final fields on the java side. There is a bug that when the
object gets sent to flash the static fields get serialized along
with the object, then when you send it back to java it tries to
create that static field.
I had the same problem a while back and fixed it by basically
stripping my object down to nothing and adding pieces back in piece
by piece until it broke with that error you mention.
--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, fowleryj [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
So here's my situation: On the Flex side, I have received a result
set
from the database, made changes to a few of its attributes, and
am trying to send it back to Java so that the changes can be saved
to
the database. I looked at Hari's thread on the matter
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/14164), but that
doesn't seem to be my problem, because I don't mind saving my data
as
a generic Array (in Flex)/ArrayList (in Java).
The problem occurs when I try to send the Array back to Java...
I assign it to an eventObject and broadcast the event:
var eventObject:Object = new Object();
eventObject.writtenDescription = writtenDescription; //
writtenDescription is a local variable that holds the result set
returned from the database on a prior remote object call
EventBroadcaster.getInstance().broadcastEvent(
RegistryController.EVENT_SAVE_WRITTEN_DESCRIPTION, eventObject );
I then pass the eventObject through a Command to the Delegate:
public function saveWrittenDescription() : Void {
var call =
service.saveWrittenDescription(event.data.writtenDescription);
call.resultHandler = Delegate.create( responder,
responder.onResult );
call.faultHandler = Delegate.create( responder,
responder.onFault );
}
The Java method waiting on the other end looks like this:
public void saveWrittenDescription(ArrayList writtenDescription)
throws Exception {
// code removed to conserve space
}
The error I see in the Network Monitor when trying to invoke the
Java
method looks like this:
[object] :
code[String] : Server.Processing
description[String] : Cannot invoke
method 'saveWrittenDescription'.
details[String] : The expected argument types are
(java.util.ArrayList) but the supplied types were
(flashgateway.io.ASObject) and converted to (null).
level[String] : error
rootcause[object] :
code[null] : null
description[String] : Type RecordSet not found
details[String] :
level[String] : error
type[String] :
type[String] :
So, to attempt to fix what looked to be a type-cast error, I cast
writtenDescription to an Array, keeping all other code as it was
before:
eventObject.writtenDescription = Array(writtenDescription);
That did not fix the problem, as the Network Monitor still showed:
[object] :
code[String] : Server.Processing
description[String] : Cannot invoke
method 'saveWrittenDescription'.
details[String] : The expected argument types are
(java.util.ArrayList) but the supplied types were
(java.util.ArrayList) and converted to (null).
level[String] : error
rootcause[object] :
code[null] : null
description[String] : Type RecordSet not found
details[String] :
level[String] : error
type[String] :
type[String] :
I don't understand why it is still breaking if the expected
argument
equals the supplied argument. Can anyone provide some insight,
please?
Thank you,

[flexcoders] Re: best way to handle this ViewStack situation when loading
Well I came up with a solution. Basically when the viewstack in initialized I create just the view containers for each view in the viewstack, setting an initialization flag to false. Then when the change event gets fired on the viewstack I check that flag and dynamically create the children in the view at that point. So in a nutshell the creation of a view in the viewstack is delayed until the user actually switches to a given view for the first time. Seems to work fine and the load time is very fast now. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, jgraham_us [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a linkbar with a viewstack, the viewstacks children are VBox'es that have rather complicated layouts that are done dynamically.

[flexcoders] Re: passing Map from Flex to server side
Well I have narrowed it down, it wasn't any of the collections stuff
as I previously thought.
It appears to be a public static final variable that I had defined
in my class.
class x {
...
public static final String TEST_KEY = test;
...
}
With the above class I can retrieve it from the server and its fine
in flex but if I send that same instance back, I get the error about
the type being flashgateway.io.ASObject but it was expecting type X.
Is there a way around this, or do my objects just need to avoid
having these?
Thanks for the responses so far.

On the AS side my Map is defined as an Array in the AS object.
On the server side it is a Map object.
I have a registerClass call to map the AS object to the java
object.
Can anyone help me out or point me to any examples of how to do
this?
Thanks

[flexcoders] passing Map in remote object
I have a server side POJO that has a HashMap, my actionscript call makes a call to the server using remote objects. When I get the object on the flex side the Map is represented as Object or an Array I guess. The length is always zero, yet my items are in the object. Why is the length always zero? I need to iterate through these. Thanks Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- 1.2 million kids a year are victims of human trafficking.

[flexcoders] newb question - get object for id
In my mxml file I have something like the following. mx:Panel id=myPanel ... ... /mx:Panel I am storing this id off in a String object for example and would like to get the actual Panel object instance for the id in an actionscript class I have. How would I go about doing this? Is there a utility method or anything that would allow me to do this? I know I can refer directly to myPanel in the actionscript and that will refer directly to the object, but what I am doing is dynamic and I need to be able to get the object just from the id itself.
