Are you using modules? This looks like an ApplicationDomain problem.

We don't use modules as such - but we do have widgets - which are Flex
applications within the main Flex application. One of the widgets is a
charting widget. We simply pass some XML data to the widget and it
displays it in a chart of the user's choice. One of which is a pie
chart. Sporadically the pie chart will crash in the WedgeItemRenderer
code.

 

I've tried a clean, Firefox, IE7 and deleting all temporary internet

Hmm, thanks for the link, I've gone through the presentation and I'm
still a little puzzled, I use LocalConnection to simply send the XML
string from the main application to the widget. I wait for the complete
event to fire from the SWFLoader, then I register for the
applicationComplete event to make sure the widget is loaded correctly
before I attempt to send messages via the connection.

 

What areas in my code do I need to be looking at? Is it setting the data
too early or is it the part about PieSeriesItem being loaded twice? Once
in the main application and once in the widget?

Yes, the size has increased, but due to the assets we've embedded the
increase isn't too noticeable.

I don't think the shared code module is going to be easy to implement
because the widgets will be developed by 3rd parties, so if we did that
we'd have to add a dependency onto their development.

 

Thanks - much appreciated.

Right.  I don't think it'll fix your resizeEvent prob, but you never
know.

 

Now if you look at your main app's swf, it should have grown
considerably as it now has a bunch of charting code in it.  If you don't
like that, then you have to go to a shared code module.

That's great, thanks Alex. For future group reference, here is some code
I have in the main App file:

// FIX: For 'Cannot convert IStroke to Stroke'

private var dummy1:IStroke;

// FIX: For 'Cannot convert PieSeriesItem to PieSeriesItem'

dummy1  dummy3 are just guesses, I'm experimenting to find out if they
fix some problems I'm having.

applicationComplete event to make sure the widget is loaded correctly
before I attempt to send messages via the connection.

What areas in my code do I need to be looking at? Is it setting the data
too early or is it the part about PieSeriesItem being loaded twice? Once
in the main application and once in the widget?

Thanks,

Mark

We don't use modules as such - but we do have widgets - which are Flex
applications within the main Flex application. One of the widgets is a
charting widget. We simply pass some XML data to the widget and it
displays it in a chart of the user's choice. One of which is a pie
chart. Sporadically the pie chart will crash in the WedgeItemRenderer
code.

I've tried a clean, Firefox, IE7 and deleting all temporary internet

That's great, thanks Alex. For future group reference, here is some code
I have in the main App file:

 

// FIX: For 'Cannot convert IStroke to Stroke'

import mx.graphics.IStroke;

private var dummy1:IStroke;

// FIX: For 'Cannot convert PieSeriesItem to PieSeriesItem'

import mx.charts.renderers.WedgeItemRenderer;

private var dummy2:WedgeItemRenderer;

// FIX: For 'Cannot convert Event to ResizeEvent'

import mx.events.ResizeEvent;

private var dummy3:ResizeEvent;

 

dummy1  dummy3 are just guesses, I'm experimenting to find out if they
fix some problems I'm having.

 

Thanks,

Right.  I don't think it'll fix your resizeEvent prob, but you never
know.
 
Now if you look at your main app's swf, it should have grown
considerably as it now has a bunch of charting code in it.  If you don't
like that, then you have to go to a shared code module.

Ok, and do you use modules?

Did you try a clean in FB?

As in, I've closed the browser then relaunched it via Flex Builder.

What do you mean by I've loaded my application again? Did you reload a
module or did you refresh the browser?

I was simply assigning some XML to a pie chart. I've loaded my
application again and the error hasn't occurred - I have no idea why it
popped up once?!
