Re: [Flashcoders] Ángel Ambrosio quiere mantener el contacto en LinkedIn
This is more likely because someone had the list's email in their contact list (say, a gmail contact list), and they use the "invite your friends!" feature of those websites without a lot of care, bulk-inviting everybody. 2010/3/22 Karl DeSaulniers > Who put flashcoders as the contact for their LinkedIn profile? lol > Or is it because of the groups? > > Karl > > > > On Mar 22, 2010, at 9:04 PM, Zeh Fernando wrote: > > Yeah.

Precisely.
My solution uses design patterns, encapsulation and DRY. It makes for very lean
code and is completely flexible and scalable.
Also, organizations of people are made up of people, not units. If Steve Ballmer
leaves and somebody else is President, then the name changes, but not the
role/title.
I don't see how writing tons of custom Actionscript to parse custom nodes in XML
is a workable solution. It's not scalable, it's not flexible. If you add a new
role at your company, you have to write new code to support the parsing of that
node name and a new class to handle drawing it, as well. The Strategy pattern
(which is present in my example) was made to solve this issue elegantly.
Let's take it out of XML altogether. Would you write a bunch of classes like
this?
public class Director
{
public var title:String;
public var name:String;
public var somethingDirectorsAndAboveHave:String;
public var somethingManagersAndAboveHave:String;
}
public class Manager
{
public var title:String;
public var name:String;
public var somethingManagersAndAboveHave:String;
}
public class Person
{
public var title:String;
public var name:String;
}
Or this...
public class Person
{
public var title:String;
public var name:String;
}
public class Manager extends Person
{
public var somethingManagersAndAboveHave:String;
}
public class Director extends Manager
{
public var somethingDirectorsAndAboveHave:String;
}
If that's even necessary, which I'm not sure it is in the data. It seems like
the role of the person only defines how they're rendered in the view and
potentially what events they fire off to the controller (if you're using
RobotLegs, you can pair with a Mediator). Leave rendering instructions out of
the data and put it in the view where it belongs.

But here I do disagree. An org chart shows the organization of a unit, and the people are secondary. When Steve Ballmer resigns or gets hired by Google, Microsoft will still have a president. It's also clearer to read, and easier to program, when every node isn't named the same. Of course, there should be some flexibility--instead of you could have something more generic, such as .

RE: [Flashcoders] flv stop loading / close netconnection
Thanks Cor, I've used that sort of call when stopping an flv from playing when closing a loaded swf. But in this case I need to be able to reconnect the flv again, I'm not disposing of the FLVPlayback. All I want to do is stop the progressive download but this seems difficult to do from an instance of FLVPlayback!

RE: [Flashcoders] flv stop loading / close netconnection
Thanks for responding Erik. Unfortunately I can't use closeVideoPlayer() as it shuts the default player which isn't allowed. On a side note I can't find anything in the docs on adding new instances of VideoPlayer Class to an FLV even though there is plenty of talk of getting different VideoPlayer classes stacked inside an FLVPlayback instance (eg. myFLVPlayback.getVideoPlayer() or myFLVPlayback.visibleVideoPlayerIndex ) . Any ideas? I have temporarily solved the problem with the nastiest workaround ever by passing "#" as the source. Seems to work for some reason but I'm sure it will come back and bite me. In the end I may have to make a new instance of FLVPlayback for each video and kill the old instance.

I cannot set the source to be "" or null either or it pulls an error. . Can anyone give me any help on stopping an FLV from loading once you have set the source and then being able to restart that download? .

Re: [Flashcoders] xml: counting parents
Vector is Flash 10 only. So I don't think it works in CS3.
You can substitute Array if you're targeting Flash Player 9.

I disagree with using explicit node names. He's building an org chart of
people, so the nodes should be person and the title should be an attribute.
You create a Person VO that you pass the node for deserialization:
public class Person
{
public var title:String;
public var name:String;
public var subordinates:Vector.;
public function Person(value:XML)
{
deserialize(value);
}
private function deserialize(value:XML):void
{
title = val...@title;
name = val...@name;
subordinates = parseSubordinates(value.person);
}
private function parseSubordinates(value:XMLList):Vector.
{
var vector:Vector. = new Vector.();
var len:int = value.length();
for (var i:int = 0; i< len; ++i)
{
vector.push(new Person(value[i]));
}
return vector;
}
}
And you feed that to your view which traverses the stack:
public class PersonView extends Sprite
{
protected var _data:Person;
public function PersonView()
{
super();
}
public function set data(value:Person):void
{
_data = value;
draw();
}
public function get data():Person
{
return _data;
}
protected function draw():void
{
// draw based on the data
}
}
Pseudo-code but you get the idea. The PersonView would create other PersonViews
inside of itself to draw the subordinates, and each view would be responsible
for doing its own layout in the draw function, taking into account the
width/height of its children, etc. Pretty clean overall.
The reason draw() is protected is because you might want to create concrete
implementations of PersonView. Perhaps some titles use a specific view and you
don't want to clutter PersonView with too many if then else statements, so you
just instantiate a specific ConcretePersonView based on the _data.title and the
concrete views take care of drawing themselves.
That's how I would build it, at least.

No - Vector is only Flash player 10. But with some tweaks, you can use
Array instead.

I want to allow users to copy text from a dynamic text field. When I
right-click on the textfield the MOUSE_LEAVE event fires (which hides the
textfield - I intend for MOUSE_LEAVE to hide the textfield).
Googling, I find no results of someone else experiencing the problem I'm
assuming this isn't the expected behavior but am at a loss for looking what is
causing this in my code, there's no RIGHT_CLICK listener and from within a
class, I have
_stage.stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, videoOffHandler);
where _stage is a reference to the Document class.

Re: [Flashcoders] xml: counting parents
I agree with Eric. Your basic issue is the way you're forming your XML. First, the way you have it, there is no need to have a hierarchy. This would work just as well: It would be better, though, to make the node names meaningful and hierarchical. So, something like this: You could come up with a better structure than that, I'm sure, but that's the basic idea. Cordially, Kerry Thompson On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 1:59 PM, Eric E.

I don't think you need to know the depth of the node in order to
create a chart because you can traverse the XML and generate the chart
as you go along.
But if you need to know the deapth:
function transformXMLWithParentCount(original:XML, xml:XML, n:uint):void {
for(var i:uint = 0, len:uint = xml.children().length(); i <
len; i++){
original..*.(@name == xml.children()[...@name && @title
==
xml.children()[...@title)@parent = n;
transformXMLWithParentCount(original,
xml.children()[i], n + 1);
}
}
var testXML:XML =
;
transformXMLWithParentCount(testXML, testXML, 1);
trace(testXML);
Trace:
But this fails when you have two or more people with identical name
and title: you should create unique ID for each person :)

Re: [Flashcoders] xml: counting parents
I don't think you need to know the depth of the node in order to
create a chart because you can traverse the XML and generate the chart
as you go along.
But if you need to know the deapth:
function transformXMLWithParentCount(original:XML, xml:XML, n:uint):void {
for(var i:uint = 0, len:uint = xml.children().length(); i <
len; i++){
original..*.(@name == xml.children()[...@name && @title
==
xml.children()[...@title)@parent = n;
transformXMLWithParentCount(original,
xml.children()[i], n + 1);
}
}
var testXML:XML =
;
transformXMLWithParentCount(testXML, testXML, 1);
trace(testXML);
Trace:
But this fails when you have two or more people with identical name
and title: you should create unique ID for each person :)

Re: [Flashcoders] xml: counting parents
A few optimizations for general coding practice:
uint is slower than int for math and should only be used if you're not doing
math on it. Number is faster than uint for numbers higher than int's positive
limit. Generally speaking, always use int in for/while loops.
There's no need to call p.parent() twice each loop. You can shortcut this by
setting p to its parent in the condition check.
Pre-increment is faster than post-increment.
Searching for a Boolean resolve instead of a specific value is faster.
var p:XML = myNode;
var depth:int;
while (p = p.parent())
{
++depth;
}

[Flashcoders] flv stop loading / close netconnection
Hi list, . Reallly hoping for some help on this.. Making a portfolio site that handles both images and video. I have an flv instance and a sprite that contains loaded images. Images and videos work fine. The problem is if I try to go to an image half way through a video downloading. in that situation i jump to the image and once the video has finished downloading it suddenly appears. Going from video to video (halfway through a download) is fine as the source is being overwritten each time but when it comes to an image I need to use myFLV.getVideoPlayer(0).close() to stop the download. That works ok except if I try to go back to the same video which download I terminated then it says "Error: Cannot call reconnect on an http connection" . I cannot set the source to be "" or null either or it pulls an error. . Can anyone give me any help on stopping an FLV from loading once you have set the source and then being able to restart that download? .

Re: [Flashcoders] xml: counting parents
It's very hackish, but here we go :)
Say you have this recursive function:
private function transformXMLWithParentCount(original:XML, xml:XML,
n:uint):void {
for(var i:uint = 0, len:uint = xml.children().length(); i < len; i++){
original..*.(@att == xml.children()[...@att)@parent = n;
transformXMLWithParentCount(original, xml.children()[i], n + 1);
}
}
You have this XML:
var testXML:XML =

Then:
transformXMLWithParentCount(testXML, testXML, 0);
trace(testXML);
You should get:

Re: [Flashcoders] Recursive:Part II
Hi
If your using recursion you could do something like the following (email, AS3,
not tested):
public function createPeople (pNode:XML, pDepth:uint=0):void
{
// lets assume that you might have child nodes that aren't "person" nodes. So
select only the nodes
// of type person. Even if no person nodes exist, this will still return an
XMLList instance with 0 items.
var childList:XMLList = pNode.person;
for each (var personNode:XML in childList)
{
// if there is a chance that @firstName or @lastName is optional then assuming
they are the code below
// will generate a runtime exception. If you are generating your XML against a
schema and thus
// are absolutely certain that the attributes are there then doing the extra
checking would not be worth
// it. The simplest safety valve would be to put a try catch around accessing
those attributes as I've done.
try
{
trace(personno...@firstname+" "+personno...@lastname);
} catch(err:Error) {
//suppress error, trace a warning that includes name of class, function,
message and node with missing attributes
trace("WARN::[" + getQualifiedClassName(this) + "]::createPeople() found person
node with missing attribute:" + personNode.toXMLString());
}
// check to see if the node has any person children, if so, call the function
recursively increment the depth
if (personNode.person.length() > 0)
{
createPeople(personNode, pDepth+1);
}
}
}
Now depth indicates how far into the nest you are. Note, assuming you call this
method from "your root depth" whatever that
is and don't pass in a depth parameter, this will automatically start at 0 and
increment upwards as it finds a child level.
Remember, if you need to see up one level then simply see if the current node
has a parent node.
var parent:XML = pNode.parent();
if (parent != undefined)
{
// do something with parent
}
however, you would have to use recursion again if you wanted to see the depth
as in the example I gave you on Friday where if you needed all the person nodes
you could do:
var people:XMLList = peopleList..*.(name() == "person");
but to get the depth of each node you would need to put in a recursive function
that incremented until the following condition was not met:
((person.parent() == undefined) || (person.parent().name() != "person"))
if you need a list of all person nodes with no depth, I'd go with:
var people:XMLList = peopleList..*.(name() == "person");
if you need need a list that includes depth then I'd go with the recursion
example above that passes a depth.

If what you are doing is looking for nodes with firstnames then you can
do something like this:
Assuming Jason's XML with attributes:
var peopleList:XML =
;
var firstNames:XMLList = peopleList..*.(hasOwnProperty("@firstName"));
trace(firstNames);
The ..* automatically selects all nodes that have a firstName attribute
regardless of nesting. Thus you could loop over firstNames with no
recursion and get a list of all firstnames. The list will contain all
the nodes witha firstName attribue, so you will get one node with Bob as
firstName that still has 3 children, but you will also get 2 of those
children in the firstNames list so you would simply ignore the children
inside of Bob. For testing purposes I purposefully added an extra child
node with no firstName to Bob.
This is the result
You can do something similar with your structure:
var peopleList:XML =
Bob
Smith
Timmy
Smith
Jenny
Smith
Tom
Williams
Sa
Williams
;
var firstNames:XMLList = peopleList..*.personFirstName;
trace(firstNames);
result:
Bob
Timmy
Jenny
Tom
Sa
Your structure produces a simpler list, however I favor Jason's
attribute version as it is far more compact, simpler to read, etc.
Personal preference.
But if you don't need to do recursion then don't. Saves many headaches.
