[flexcoders] socket policy question

[zenwarden]

I have a flex application the uses binary sockets. It does not work
with the new security update. To fix this I have implemented a server
that listens on port 843. 

This works. I have just one problem.

I am currently using the wildcard * in the allow-access-from domain
attribute.

Like this: 
allow-access-from domain=* to-ports=123,456-458 /

I do not want to have to do this. I just want to specify that if the
swf was served from the server itself, then it can have access.

Is there a way to do this with out actually hard coding that domain?
I tried localhost, but that does not work. Is there some key word
that will specify this behavior?

Thanks,

Chris

[flexcoders] Important question about FABridge license

[zenwarden]

Can someone from Adobe tell me WHICHliecnse is the actual license for
the Flex Ajax bridge?

There is a license included in the download zip that is very
restrictive AND there is also a license in the code (both js and as
files) that is the exact oppsite and completely none restrictive. The
Adobe bloggers (like Ely) have claimed that the bridge is using the
MIT License type

So I am very confused and basically I am going to have to pull all the
code out and redo it using the External Call back mechanism (not fun).

[flexcoders] Re: Serious Bug in HistoryManager (introduced in latest release?)

[zenwarden]

I can't test the fix because I cannot replicate the bug. It has
mysteriously vanished...The next time I see it, I will try the
suggested fix and report back.

Also sorry if I ranted in my last post. Just don't like to see any
problems with my new favorite technology.

[flexcoders] Serious Bug in HistoryManager (introduced in latest release?)

There appears to be a failry serious bug that I think was introduced

Shutting down the borwoser or even switching borwsers does NOT help. I
mostly see it when I am running from the flex builder, but when you
are trying to run tests -- this becomes failry serious and very time

The error message is:

[flexcoders] Is this a bug in mx:List?

[zenwarden]

I was implementing a filter on a list of values and noticed that when
I scroll down the list and then try and filter an error is thrown.

Here is the error:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

seems to be an indexing problem based at this line list:
h = rowInfo[rowCount - 1].y + rowInfo[rowCount - 1].height; 

(line 789 in my code base)


Here is the code I used to generate the result.
(This is based on a Ben Forta example. he used 
a datagrid -- the erro does not occure with datagrid just list.)

The code:

  // If no filter text, or a match, then true

[flexcoders] Re: Best practice: string tables

[zenwarden]

Is there a way to have these properties not load at compile time, but
rather be read at run time? One of the nicest things about properties
in java and other langauges is that they allow you to change or modify
behavior and values without recompiling code.

Flash seems to ignore this concept both with properties and with css.

 Flex already has the concept of resource bundles. You put your

 Subject: [flexcoders] Best practice: string tables
 
  
 
 Hi All.
 
  
 
 In my previous flash projects we've had a string table of sorts set up
 so that all the strings in the application can be edited easily. We can
 also easily modify the strings for foreign users.
 
  
 
 I have taken this idea and implemented it in Flex as follows.
 
 In the main application I have this code:
 
  
 
 [Bindable]
 
 public var dialogueText:Object = {
 
 loginBoxHeader:Member Login,
 
  
 
 to set up the string table (obviously other strings in there as well).
 
  
 
 In my login component I have the following:
 
  
 
 [Bindable]
 
 private var mainApplication:Object = mx.core.Application.application;
 
  
 
 and
 
  
 
 mx:Label x=10 y=12
 text={mainApplication.dialogueText.loginUsername}/
 
  
 
 Is this the best way of doing this or will having all of these bound
 variables around the place slow things down?
 
 Is there a better way of doing this?
 
  
 
 Many Thanks

[flexcoders] Problem with Flex-Ajax Bridge: Error calling method on NPObject!

[zenwarden]

Hello,

I am using the flex ajax bridge. Up until now it's been easy to work
with, but I have finally encountered a problem.  

I am trying to find out if I can pass my own custom objects. I am
trying to pass data from one flex application to another. I CANNOT use
a server, so I am using the bridge. This has worked when I pass
strings or even complex arrays, but when I try to pass a class I have
defined in an .AS file, I get an error, specifically:

Error: Error calling method on NPObject!
Source File: http://172.31.67.224/FABridge.js
Line: 236

So I would like to know:

1) Are we even allowed to do this via the bridge?
2) If we are allowed,  do I need to import the class somehow into the
javascript?

Here is what the code looks like in the javascript:

function loader() {

window.resizeTo(700, 700);


var initCallback = function()
 {

var flexWin = window.opener;
var statBridge = flexWin.makeBridge();

var testRep = statBridge.getReportData();  
alert(in call back: + testRep);

var flexApp = FABridge.flash.root();
alert(about to pass in metadata);

flexApp.fetchData(testRep);


   alert(done with fetch data);
 
 
 
 }
 FABridge.addInitializationCallback(flash,initCallback);
 
 

}

If the methods getReportData() and fetchData() take strings or arrays
as arguments I am fine, but when I try and use my own custom class I
get the error.

Thank you,

Chris Warden

 I am creating some charts dynamically so cannot specify this stuff

 P.S. Yes I have searched for this in the user groups and on the web. I

 Hi,
 
 I am trying to remove dropshadows from my line series chart.
 
 I am trying this:
 
 mx:LineSeries id=lineSeries   
  mx:renderer
   mx:SimpleLineRenderer /
  /mx:renderer   
 mx:lineStroke
  mx:Stroke weight=1 color=black
  /mx:Stroke
  /mx:lineStroke
 /mx:LineSeries  
 
 and my flexbuilder shows an error:
 Could not resolve mx: renderer to a component implentation.
 
 I have seen this same code posted in this group, with commments thatit
 is working.
 
 What am I doing wrong?
 
 Chris

[flexcoders] Re: IE Only: Error #2032 (Flex 2.0)

[zenwarden]

I think you may be wrong about the problem. I have now confirmed that
 am able to get back content that has an Expires: 0 header.

I think the Content-Encoding: gzip is the problem. Not the header, but
the actual encoding itself. I have seen several reports of this on the
web. 

see: http://blog.jasonnussbaum.com/?p=155

Did you you change the encoding? On the example that works?

Chris

  Here is a sample header that works. The key is the value of the

[flexcoders] Re: IE Only: Error #2032 (Flex 2.0)

[zenwarden]

I have now confirmed that (in my case at least) gzip encoding was the
problem NOT Expires: 0.

I have a working example with the following header information:

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Server: httpd/1.00
Cache-Control: no-cache
Expires: 0
Content-Type: text/xml

which worked.

the original response which was failing was due to gzip encoding:

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Server: httpd/1.00
Cache-Control: no-cache
Expires: 0
Content-Type: text/xml
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Length: 921

This appears to be a IE bug. Not flash.

[flexcoders] UDP support in Socket

[zenwarden]

Does the socket class support UDP?

I have tried to get it to work with a connect call and cannot do it.
There does not seem to be anything equivalent to
DatagramSocket.bind(SocketAddress addr);

Any info would help, including future plans.

You really think that's the problem? The same pages work fine in frirefox.

 The plug-in detection that is generated by the flex builder ( in the
 AC_OETags.js file) does not seem to be working for IE (or at least my
 version: 6. 0.2800).
 
 I know that IE has the right plug-in because I can run the swf file
 directly. But I get the Alternate HTML content should be placed here.
 This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash message when
 I try to go through the myappname.html page. This happen both when I
 run through the builder and when I post files on a server.
 
 Is this a known bug? There is a plethora of information on the adobe
 site on browser detection, and I would appreciate it if someone could
 just narrow the field for me on how to fix this. I am not too keen on
 debugging the current AC_OETags.js.
