Re: [flexcoders] Please tell me if this is a good way to learn AS3??

2010-03-03 Thread primo411
IMHO this is a bad idea. Every language has its specificities. As3 and Java
do not achieve the same goals. Why don't you just stick with tutorials,
documentation, and learn the language and its best practices from the start
? This should keep you busy for a while.

Then you can start making parallels between as3 and Java.

2010/3/3 fred44455 fred44...@yahoo.com



 I have find limited examples on AS3 therefore I am using a lot of Java
 programs and pretty much switching them into the AS3 language and run them
 and it seems to work. From your expertise is it a good way to learn AS3?
 (Of course I am making changes as Java is similar to AS3 but not identical)

Re: [flexcoders] Best Java addon for Flex

2010-02-01 Thread primo411
As Fotis said, I suggest you keep it simple to start. Your first choice will
be what to use to make Flex communicate with Java. Fotis suggested BlazeDS,
I personally use GraniteDS. May be you can look at their documentation and
see what you can do with it and what suits better your needs.

Then you can start playing with Java/Java EE technos and frameworks, but
that's a bigger work ;)

Have fun :)

2010/2/1 Fotis Chatzinikos fotis.chatzini...@gmail.com



 That depends on your estimated traffic + various other staff...

 Spring, hibernate and so on are powerful but have a steep learning curve
 plus they add complexity (and possibly bugs..).

 Start simple, have a servlet based backend combined with blazeds.

 If on the other hand you are planning / implementing for hundreds of
 concurrent users go for spring, hibernate, caches and so on.

 It all depends on your needs.

 I find that a simple servlet (1 single servlet) is quite enough for
 something simple, such as a game or small app.

  Hi,



 Some links that may be useful for you:




 http://www.dgrigg.com/post.cfm/04/12/2007/Cairngorm-Commands-Views-and-Harikiri


 http://www.cairngormdocs.org/docs/cairngorm_2_1/com/adobe/cairngorm/view/ViewHelper.html


 http://www.cairngormdocs.org/docs/cairngorm_2_1/com/adobe/cairngorm/view/ViewLocator.html



 Basically, your commands will retrieve a ViewHelper, which acts as a
 presentation model / mediator for a particular view, and then can call
 methods on it or update its properties.  You’ll have to structure your
 ViewHelper so it has a reference to your view (and vice versa if you are
 using the PM pattern).



 If you are familiar with PureMVC, you are kind of mimicking their Mediator
 structure, except all the work is still centralized in commands.



 Hope that helps!



 Cheers,

 Karthik

 Cairngorm





 Hello all



 I am trying to implement presentation model using Cairngorm for my flex
 application. I have some views where I have some components binded to some
 of modelLocator. I read somewhere that the properties that need to be
 updated should reside in presentation model. Is this true? If yes, then how
 can I do so?



 Suppose I create a currentUser property in modelLocator. and it is bound to
 a label on user info screen which displays the concatenated lastname and
 firstname. Now if I create a presentation model for user info screen, I will
 have to create a fullname property for the view. But then when and how will
 I update this property?



- Should I update it when I do login - which means I should do it in
responder.
- Should I create in presentation model and call it in responder. If
yes, will the view get updated properly.

  Can somebody please throw some light on these issues?



 Thanks ans Regards

Re: [flexcoders] Re:Flex Builder 3 for Linux updated

2009-11-25 Thread primo411
It would be nice to mention in this mail that no effort has been done to
make it compatible with Eclipse 3.5/ 3.4.1
All they had to do is to integrate those two patches:
http://blog.danyul.id.au/?p=68
http://www.jamesward.com/2009/09/29/flex-builder-3-on-eclipse-3-5/

The alpha 5 version is still compatible only with Eclipse =3.40.

2009/11/25 Michael Slinn msl...@mslinn.com



 Life is short. Microsoft is aggressive, and HTML5 looms. Without
 cross-platform support for developers and users Flex and the Flash
 Platform can't compete. Flex had a decent chance to become more than a
 promising product, but the end of that opportunity is in sight. Without
 strong Linux support, Flex will be a casualty of the RIA war; the
 question has become when Flex will cease to be a viable business decision.

 This loss was preventable. I say this in the past tense, because
 dithering only begets more dithering. Borland's JBuilder died because
 of dithering, and Borland died in large part because they did not
 respond appropriately to Microsoft and Eclipse. Big Bill is likely to
 win again, using the same tried-and-true script, while playing clean.

 Hope you enjoy the post and let me (and the rest of us on the list) know if

 Hi,

 Could I have a definition about frames?

 I've read about frame life cycle. As I've understood, a Flex application
 has two frames: the first one (FRAME 1) contains the Preloader, the other
 one (FRAME 2) contains the Application?

 So, what's a frame? What function do FRAME 1 and FRAME 2 play into a Flex
 Application?
 Can I consider a frame like a logic unit which can do thing? FRAME 1 one
 has the job to load (through the SystemManager) the application code and
 RSL, FRAME 2 (through the SystemManager) to visualize application on screen
 and to allow the user interaction.

 What are the differences (or analogies) between frame understood as the
 unit that contains actionscript code (like in a Creative Suite) and frame
 understood as the time slot between two consecutive enterframe events?

 Thanks in advance,
 Cheers.

 Personally, I'm not all that concerned about Flex Builder running on Linux,
 in and of itself. Now if they ported the Creative Suite as well, I would be
 totally psyched. Unfortunately, as long as CS is only available on Windows
 or OSX, I'm going to be tied to those platforms.

 That being said, for those who want to code on Linux, IntelliJ IDEA is an
 excellent editor, and feature for feature, FDT will have a very hard time
 competing with it with their current pricing. IDEA is $250 for a single
 developer license, and that includes MXML support, integrated debugger, Flex
 Unit integrated with the IDE, etc. To get the same features in FDT, you'd
 have to pay more than 3X that.

 The countless other Eclipse plugins I use don't have a 2 year lag between

 Look at Capabilities.  It has an os property.

The trick is to analyze the String describing the Flash player version.

I wasn't that wrong after all =) You will have to match the OS version from
the player version String.

Re: [flexcoders] Developing Flash/Flex on Linux

2009-10-21 Thread primo411
Of course lots of people will be interested ! There is a big demand but
Adobe has shown no interest for Linux...

Would the Linux version be free or commercial ? If commercial, would there
be an effort to support open-source projects ? I think this is the most
important decision to make for your Linux strategy.

Re: [flexcoders] Function when exit from the appli.

2009-10-19 Thread primo411
You can use setup a callback on your application with
External.addCallback(...)
Then in your html template, you can listen to the javascript event
onbeforeunload and call the function you have defined.

 Hello,

 I want to know when the user exit from my application, or if it does not
 closed, when he exit from the navigator.

 Is it to avoid to have several users connected with the same login.

 Which function to use ?
 Thank you,

[flexcoders] Flex XML editor

2009-10-16 Thread primo411
Hi everyone,
I want to create an editor for XML files in Flex. Does anyone know if there
are already existing projects (open-source) that implement this ? I could
not find anything (excepted commercial apps), but I guess someone already
had the need to do that :)

Re: [flexcoders] Help me name this eclipse feature so I can log a bug

2009-10-15 Thread primo411
I don't think this is a bug, I will explain you why: ALT+LEFT/RIGHT is the
shortcut for history navigation, ALT+LEFT brings you back to were you were.
If you want to move word by word, try: CTRL+LEFT/RIGHT
If you want to go to the beginning or the end of the line, just use the
begin and end keys of your keyboard !

Cheers

2009/10/15 dfalling dfall...@gmail.com



 I'm trying to think of the name of this feature so I can log a Jira for
 it...

 When using Eclipse with Java, you can use alt/option to move intelligently
 through code.

 For example: assuming ^ is your insertion point in Java:
 Math.floor(^
 alt-left
 Math.^floor(

 In Flex though, the behavior is different:
 Math.floor(^
 alt-left
 ^Math.floor(

 I greatly prefer the Java way- I frequently will copy my selected line with
 command-option-up/down, then try to alt-arrow over to swap out the function.
 FB leaves me further away from where I want to be than vanilla Eclipse.

 Does anyone know how to describe this so I can log another Jira to be
 ignored? :P

 Thanks!

  



Re: [flexcoders] Resources for compiling with asc.jar

Looks like this asc.jar is an ActionScript decompiler:
http://www.5etdemi.com/blog/archives/2007/01/as3-decompiler/

To learn how to compile/run, you should read tutorials for Java beginners.

 I'm working on a project that is compiled using asc.jar. I know zero
 about asc.jar. I don't even know how to compile / setup or run
 asc.jar. I'm a Flex developer. Can someone send me links to resources

Re: [flexcoders] A Potential Beginner

2009-09-29 Thread primo411
Hi Julie ! Nice to see motivated people :)

From my little experience, I'd say focusing on a technology is not the smart
approach. The standards always change, and they change very fast in the web
field. Silverlight and Flex are just concurrent technologies to do basically
the same thing: Rich Internet Applications. If you want to create yourself a
background in RIAs, you should just play with available technos and
understand by yourself with Flex is better in some cases or not.

So, to answer your question with my approach: Yes, I think there are lots of
things to do with RIAs ;)

2009/9/29 Snoopy fireplace_...@yahoo.com



 Hi Everyone,

 I hope this is the correct place to post this question. I like web
 development and currently deciding which track to take (Linux\PHP,
 Windows\.NET, or the more creative Adobe\ActionScript\Flex). I am leaning
 towards the more creative given my background in music.

 My question for you folks is this: What's it like in the real world doing
 ActionScript\Flex for a living? Are there a lot of jobs in it? What's the
 typical job like? Do you have to be a fantastic designer? What does the
 future look like for this field?

 Thanks a Bunch!

Re: [flexcoders] Potomac - Flex Modularity Framework (like OSGi / Eclipse RCP)

Is there a sample application with sources anywhere ?

2009/9/23 schtoo2 sch...@schtoo.com



 Hi flexcoders,

 I wanted to drop by and announce our new Flex framework. I've seen a few
 messages here over time where people are looking for a framework like the
 Eclipse RCP that includes a deep modular approach. We've just released on
 thats just for those applications.

 Potomac brings OSGI-like modularity to Flex.

 Check it out:

 p.s. I know - not another Flex framework. But this one is different...
 really... I promise :)

 Anyone know of any Flex libraries for creating logic diagrams or the like?
 Basically something that facilitates dragging 'items' on to a canvas and
 connecting with logical operations to create 'flows' with branching.

 Thanks,
