Goodbye Flash. :-(

Hey all,

I've been looking a bit at CreateJS and Haxe/OpenFL, and since the question
was asked a while ago, and the list is rather slow, I thought I'd share some
further thoughts...

I've decided to go with CreateJS for now.  I was very excited about Haxe,
especially from the point of view of one source for multiple platforms, but
for heavily interactive Flash-style projects it just doesn't seem to be
quite there yet.  I'd love to be proven wrong(!), but here are the
shortcomings that I've found in my brief look:

1. Sprite/Bitmap detection -- it looks like mouse detection is on the
bounding box, so e.g. rollovers on arbitrarily shaped bitmaps is impossible.
(Well, you may be able to use hitTestPoint and some fancy gyrations, but...
eeech.)

2. Filter support -- seems weak and limited; e.g. GlowFilter isn't available
for the HTML5 target.

3. Ease of developing -- relatively minor, and single-source across targets
would easily outweigh this.  But with Haxe, firstly you have an extra step
(the build).  Then, Haxe seems somewhat monolithic:  it's good for handling
the core interactive canvas area, but the HTML has to live in a separate
file: Haxe rebuilds the HTML file each time and there doesn't seem to be a
good way to preserve custom HTML in the same file between builds.  Again,
not a show-stopper, but I find workflow quicker without the build, and
editing the HTML/JS directly.

CreateJS seems to work well across all browsers I've tested on so far (with,
of course, the exception of IE8)... as did Haxe.  

There may be retorts for all these criticisms, since I've only looked so
far... please feel free to contradict me!

Thanks,
--Dave

 - any classes that you need within this 'private' class must be

 in my experience, i have yet to feel the need for a pseudo 'private'

 the internal namespace serves me well most and in a few occasions a

RE: [Flashcoders] AS3 finally..

[Cor]

Karl,

One: why doesn't ActionScript 3 allow private classes?
A: They are useless because they couldn't be used, I guess.
You can use a Class within a public class which then would be private to
that class it self.

Two: why is writing public class a best practice if private class does
not exist?
Look a the variations with static etc.

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3

[Cor]

Hi Karl, 
 
Hahahaha, AS3 is very much easier then AS2. 
But can be a little tricky to grasp when you are switching. 
Believe me, once you see the structure, you don't understand that AS2 has ever 
existed. 
 
First the Q: How do you use a button instead of a MC. 
There is no difference, they are both Objects with each some specific 
properties. 
The button is in fact a movieclip with just a timeline of 4 states. 
I recommend never to use Flash Components(!). 
Create youre own button or movieclip. 
When you create a graphic and transform (F8) it into a Symbol you can choose to 
set it as a MC or Button. 
I prefer MC always and write my own class to deal with the states. 
I will send you some examples in a following mail. 
 
In this mail I will address your code problem as is. 
I always look at code to see if something is redundant. 
So if there is ANYTHING I discover is present more then once, I create 
something 
so there is only 1 of it, and reuse that as often as needed. 
 
In your case I can't see if the buttons are put on stage phisically or with 
code. 
I always use code only, my stage stays empty and I have no frames on the 
timeline! 
My guess is that in this case the buttons are already on the stage, so I will 
set the code as follows: 
 
//put all the button names in this array 
var aButtons:Array = [ button1_btn, button2_btn]; 
var idx:int = -1;  //no button selected yet 
 
for (var i:uint = 0; i  aButtons.length; ++i){ 
 aButtons[i].buttonMode = true; 
 aButtons[i]..mouseChildren = false; 
 aButtons[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickHandler, false, 0, 
true); 
 aButtons[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, btnOverHandler, false, 0, 
true); 
 aButtons[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, btnOutHandler, false, 0, 
true); 
} 
 
function btnClickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void{  
 //get the position in the array of the clicked button 
 idx = aButtons.indexof(e.target); 
 switch (idx) { 
case 0: 
this.gotoAndStop(divinedivers); //goto frame divinedivers in this MC 
break; 
case 1: 
this.gotoAndStop(scubadudes); //got frame scubadudes in this MC 
break; 
 } 
} 
 
function btnOverHandler(e:MouseEvent):void { 
 //get the position in the array of the clicked button 
 idx = aButtons.indexof(e.target); 
//RENAME THE FRAME TO 'over' !! 
aButtons[idx].gotoAndStop(over); //toggle this button MC frame 
} 
function btnOutHandler(e:MouseEvent):void { 
 //get the position in the array of the clicked button 
 idx = aButtons.indexof(e.target); 
//RENAME THE FRAME TO 'out' !! 
aButtons[idx].gotoAndStop(out); //toggle this button MC frame 
} 
 
I typed this instantly in this mail, so watch for a possible typo? 
I go to dinner now, and create and send the promised examples after that. 
 
If you have problems with the code above, please tell me. 
For simplicity, I suggest mailing a FLA to eachother.

Cor

}

function toggleB2(f):void {
button2_btn.gotoAndStop(f); //toggle this button MC frame
}

Why does AS3 have to make things so difficult for something so simple??
What the heck am I doing wrong???

Also, how do you use just a button instead of a mc?
I tried using just a button and it wouldn't even switch to the over  
state that is inside the button!!?

AS2 is just so much more simple... sigh*

I need the false, 0, to get to the third param.
Which when set (weak reference) to true gives the garbage collector the 
oppurtunity to clear the listener and free up resources.
Not necessary but I like to clean up.

No no, I don't want you to send clients FLA, but create a mock up with the

After all I am applying the listener to it.

@jason Not that I am going to continue with annon functions, just  
currious.

Basically, I am trying to set up the listener for the buttons to be  
generic for the buttons hover states.
Then specify data for the click state per button.

So if
button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, toggleB1(1));
doesnt work, how do I specify which frame to move to.
Trying to set up a toggle if you will. I DONT want to have to create a  
function for EVERY state for EVERY button I have.
That just seems stupid to me to have to do. Very bloated IMO.

 Hi Karl,

 when you are starting with as3: whatever works :)).

 Basically both will work (anon and nonanon (double wow)), but  
 anonymous is harder (read impossible) to remove.
 So if you create a view that exists throughout the lifetime of the  
 app, with buttons that do the same, either way will work.
 If you are creating and removing a lot of buttons, I'd skip  
 anonymous, and nicely removely the listeners when done.

 button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, toggleB1(1)); will  
 not work because you are registering the result of the toggleB1(1)  
 call, which in most cases will not be a function reference.

 What you wanted to do is something like the old as2 proxy or  
 delegate call, which you can recreate in as3 and would result in  
 something like:
 button1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, Proxy.create  
 (toggleB1, [1]));
 Thing is, as3 is going to pass event objects as arguments as well,  
 so this is getting more complicated than its worth real fast.

 But I would do myself a favor and pick up actionscript 3  
 essentials and actionscript 3 cookbook. Doesn't take too long to  
 get through them and saves you a lot and a lt of  
 frustration :)

 Yeah, this is weird and unnecessary. Anonymous functions are  
 recommended against in AS3.

 Try removing:

 button2_btn.mouseChildren = false;

 Your code is a bit convoluted!

 divers_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function()

 scuba_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function()

RE: [Flashcoders] HTML in Datagrid component

[Cor]

Hello Karl,

Because the code is never to be reused, I have put it all-in-one.
But I agree on creating separate functions.
Before I go into that I would like to solve my datagrid issue first.

I thought using it is common to use double quotes when handling strings and
single quotes when code needs to be parsed?
Are there side effects to be expected when using only single quotes?

From php.net is where I have got this so far.
Also http://www.w3schools.com is very helpful.

Thanks very much for all your help!!!

Best regards,
Cor

Hey Cor,
One thing I noticed was the string $xmlOutput was switching between single
and double quotes. Probably want to stick to one or the other.

Excuse the re-write, but this is how I would write that php.
Don't know if it works as I can not test, but try this code and let me know
what you get.
Also, you may want to separate each call to the database into separate
functions.

IE:
function getProjects() {
}
function getUserData() {
}
function getMaterials() {
}
$projects = getProjects();
$userdata = getUserData();
$materials = getMaterials();
etc..
then have a function that puts together the XML results.

function createXML($projects, $userdata, $materials) {
}

Your call on that though.
If the code I gave does not work, try taking a look here to see if you  
can find a solution for the special characters.

http://php.net/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars.php

php.net is gold!  Best of luck!

:)

Hope everybody doesn't mind the php convo being a flash list.
If so message me personally Cor.

RE: [Flashcoders] HTML in Datagrid component

[Cor]

Thanks Karl,

stripslashes crashes the application.
It goes wrong on name-value pair in the URLVariables.

I use characters like ë, é, etc.
My textfields render as HTML and everything works as I expected.
But, I also use the Datagrid component and in there these is shown like
Atilde;laquo;

Yes, I know, don't use components...
But the harm is done and I can't go back.

Cor

@Ross

The more and more we all talk about this, and I get to see examples, the
more I would like to see a working example of yours.
I really like the simplicity and flow of your idea and with your permission,
like to try out your style of MVC based off your example.
My idea is to leverage the MVC into just 3 classes M: V: and C: and nothing
more.
(I am probably crazy but this little itch I have now will not go away) But
because I have a disconnect on how the MVC is applied to an actual
application I can not get grips on where to start.
I feel that ANY actionscript one creates should be simplistic in nature and
I feel that for any project you can fit everything into just a model a view
or a controller.
Or at least I'd like to try and test my theory... :)

Please dont call me crazy, you'll just be spinning your SWFWheels.

PS: by no means am I saying that anyone else's examples are crude or wrong.
I have no stance to say such.
Just a heart felt feeling I have that amongst the confusion of how its done
correctly, there is a simplistic solution that everyone may be overlooking.
That NEO if you will.

 On Feb 27, 2012, at 1:16 AM, Ross Sclafani wrote:

 thanks, its just how i do MVC

 it really get interesting when you follow a mitosis development 
 pattern... You start with one model, controller, and view, add 
 features to each in parallel, and as each class gets too big, you 
 break them out into subcontrollers, submodels, and subviews. Then 
 sub-sub. My projects have a triple-tree structure branching out from 
 the core model, controller, and view classes

 finer granularity as you reach further in, and always broken into M, 
 V, and C:

 Models contain properties only. they dispatch a CHANGE Event every 
 time one of their properties change,.

 Views display properties of the model. they listen for the CHANGE 
 Event, and update their appearance with the new values stored in the 
 model every time it changes.

 Controllers manipulate properties of the model. Whether trigger by 
 event handlers in the views, or internal timers or network activity, 
 any command that sets any value of any property of the model is 
 placed in a controller. Controllers might use other controllers to 
 trigger changes in submodels outside its subdomain

 the project starts off very compact, then grows with its 
 functionality as required, always growing out from the center so you 
 never paint yourself into a corner

 then later to optimize, you can get specific about which submodel a 
 particular view is listening to, in turn limiting the number of 
 change events it receives to those actually represented in the view.

 all subcontrollers hold a reference to the root controller, so it is 
 easy to target any node on the controller tree from anywhere inside 
 of it.

 same with the model tree. some submodel properties can emit the 
 CHANGE Event only on a local level, and not send the event up the 
 hierarchy, isolating the scope of view updates

 An MVC Example

 FLVPlayback is an interesting MVC  component:

 it holds a NetStream as a model of the video

 it holds a Video as a view of the Video

 It acts as controller to set the model in motion by connecting it to 
 a stream

 the ui is also a view of the video: the percent elapsed is 
 represented n the scrub bar, ther is a play button while paused, a 
 pause button while playing, then there are the time readouts..

 if the video its playing,
 the user clicks pause in the view,
 it tells the controller to pause the stream

RE: [Flashcoders] MVC style Correction

[Cor]

My guess is the view needs the reference to the controller, because it
invokes function in there to update the model through the controller.
I am not a OOP or MVC specialist, and know nothing more as showed in the
video, so don't shoot me!

The gentleman started creating the view first then made the model and had
the interaction between the two then went and created the controller and in
creating the controller took away some code from the view that the model
handled and gave it to the controller. He also had the view having reference

var model:Model = new Model();
var controller:Controller = new Controller(model); var view:View = new
View(model, controller);

shouldn't it be..

var controller:Controller = new Controller(); var model:Model = new

 on page number 429 (is the 11th page of this file)

 So I have create this in my Document class like this:

   var model:Model = Model.getInstance(); //Singleton
   var controller:Controller = new Controller(model);
   var view:View = new View(model, controller,

   addChild(view);


 To check if I understand you correctly, you would do something like  
 this:

   var model:Model = Model.getInstance(); //Singleton
   var view:View = new View(model,  this.stage);
   var controller:Controller = new Controller(model,
 view);
   addChild(view);

 And in the view instance, instead of my way:

   private function btn_clickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {

   
 controller.setValueInModel(arrayButtons.indexOf(e.target));
   }

   private function btn_clickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {

   myPublicVar = arrayButtons.indexOf(e.target);
   dispatchEvent(new Event(View.MY_CUSTOM_EVENT));
   }   

 Ofcourse the Controller would then have a listener :  
 view.addEventListener(
 View.MY_CUSTOM_EVENT, callback_function);

 Correct???

 I don't think the controller should be updating the view. Period.  
 Nor do I
 think that the view should be calling methods of the controller class.

 One of the main benefits of MVC is separation of concerns. Views  
 shouldn't
 care about controllers, controllers should care about views.

 My views dispatch events about their changes and the controller

 the events, not caring which view dispatched it.
 The controller updates the model, and the view listens for changes

 There are several ways to build the MVC pattern. The video shows one  
 way,
 but really it shows a coupling that shouldn't be as tight as it is  
 and the
 idea of a controller updating a view, is a no-no.

 Sometimes people use a micro-mvc architecture within a view to  
 control it -
 no problem about that, but we should keep our MVC components as

 black boxes.

You could ofcourse take another approach:
In the view:
 dispatchEvent(new Event(View.YOURVIEWEVENT));

and in the Contoller:

View.addEventListener(View.YOURVIEWEVENT, callback);

So there is a loose coupling as Paul wrote.

Absolutely agree, so thank you everyone - very much.
Each day I look for more.

As a result of people talking about RobotLegs I bought and today received
Joel Hooks' ActionScript Developers Guide to RobotLegs.

A new direction - which I am thankful for.

Lots of fun!

 it really get interesting when you follow a mitosis development 
 pattern... You start with one model, controller, and view, add 
 features to each in parallel, and as each class gets too big, you 
 break them out into subcontrollers, submodels, and subviews. Then 
 sub-sub. My projects have a triple-tree structure branching out from 
 the core model, controller, and view classes

 finer granularity as you reach further in, and always broken into M, 
 V, and C:

 Models contain properties only. they dispatch a CHANGE Event every 
 time one of their properties change,.

 Views display properties of the model. they listen for the CHANGE 
 Event, and update their appearance with the new values stored in the 
 model every time it changes.

 Controllers manipulate properties of the model. Whether trigger by 
 event handlers in the views, or internal timers or network activity, 
 any command that sets any value of any property of the model is placed 
 in a controller. Controllers might use other controllers to trigger 
 changes in submodels outside its subdomain

 the project starts off very compact, then grows with its functionality 
 as required, always growing out from the center so you never paint 
 yourself into a corner

 then later to optimize, you can get specific about which submodel a 
 particular view is listening to, in turn limiting the number of change 
 events it receives to those actually represented in the view.

 all subcontrollers hold a reference to the root controller, so it is 
 easy to target any node on the controller tree from anywhere inside of 
 it.

 same with the model tree. some submodel properties can emit the CHANGE 
 Event only on a local level, and not send the event up the hierarchy, 
 isolating the scope of view updates

 An MVC Example

 FLVPlayback is an interesting MVC  component:

 it holds a NetStream as a model of the video

 it holds a Video as a view of the Video

 It acts as controller to set the model in motion by connecting it to a 
 stream

 the ui is also a view of the video: the percent elapsed is represented 
 n the scrub bar, ther is a play button while paused, a pause button 
 while playing, then there are the time readouts..

 if the video its playing,
 the user clicks pause in the view,
 it tells the controller to pause the stream in the model, which 
 notifies the views, so the Video is paused, and  pause button becomes 
 a play button.

 thats how i do MVC.
 data is stored in mvc.models,
 data is displayed in mvc.views, and
 data is manipulated in mvc.controllers.

RE: [Flashcoders] MVC style Correction

[Cor]

Thanks Paul,

In the documentation I read there is mostly the View telling the Controller
an event has taken place.
The View holds e reference of the Model and the Controller.
Look at :
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/actions
cript/pdfs/ora_as3_design_patterns_ch12.pdf

on page number 429 (is the 11th page of this file)

So I have create this in my Document class like this:

var model:Model = Model.getInstance(); //Singleton
var controller:Controller = new Controller(model);
var view:View = new View(model, controller,
this.stage);
addChild(view);


To check if I understand you correctly, you would do something like this:

var model:Model = Model.getInstance(); //Singleton
var view:View = new View(model,  this.stage);
var controller:Controller = new Controller(model,
view);
addChild(view);

And in the view instance, instead of my way:

private function btn_clickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {


controller.setValueInModel(arrayButtons.indexOf(e.target));
}

private function btn_clickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {

myPublicVar = arrayButtons.indexOf(e.target);
dispatchEvent(new Event(View.MY_CUSTOM_EVENT));
}   

Ofcourse the Controller would then have a listener : view.addEventListener(
View.MY_CUSTOM_EVENT, callback_function);

Correct???

Cor

I don't think the controller should be updating the view. Period. Nor do I
think that the view should be calling methods of the controller class.

One of the main benefits of MVC is separation of concerns. Views shouldn't
care about controllers, controllers should care about views.

My views dispatch events about their changes and the controller listens for
the events, not caring which view dispatched it.
The controller updates the model, and the view listens for changes in the
model.

There are several ways to build the MVC pattern. The video shows one way,
but really it shows a coupling that shouldn't be as tight as it is and the
idea of a controller updating a view, is a no-no.

Sometimes people use a micro-mvc architecture within a view to control it -
no problem about that, but we should keep our MVC components as separate
black boxes.

i prefer to have the model update the views.

preferably via event for loose coupling.


the situations that a controller would alter a view  in the versions of MVC
i have studied are for things that are pure visual responses.

like say a rollover:

ROLL_OVER event on View -- calls onRollOver on controller -- sets
highlight on View.

Because the Flash SDK provides such a rich display API, I personally avoid
this and leave any pure view event handling to the View internals to limit
the public properties of Views.

I could see a scenario where one such rollover needs to cause changes in
multiple views, and this approach could be implemented, but i would normally
rout these types updates through a submodel dedicated to UI.

again, I value encapsulation above most other benefits of allowing the
controller access to view properties, so i follow a standard unidirectional
triangular flow.

 Not necessarily so.
 But.. you'd use an interface, which the view implements.
 In which case you'd probably be talking about a Presenter rather than 
 a Controller :)

 pseudo code:

 // PRESENTER
 private var view:IView;
 public function ViewPresenter(v:IView) {
view = v;
// add listeners and whatnot..
 }

 onSomeEventHandler(event:SomeEvent):void {
view.update();
 }

 

 // VIEW
 public class MyView implements IView {
public function update()(// do stuff); }

 

 // VIEW INTERFACE
 public interface IView {
public function update();
 }

 GWT uses this kind of architecture:
 http://code.google.com/intl/nl/webtoolkit/articles/mvp-architecture.ht
 ml 
 http://code.google.com/intl/nl/webtoolkit/articles/mvp-architecture.ht
 ml#binding


 http://code.google.com/intl/nl/webtoolkit/articles/mvp-architecture-2.
 html


 http://www.google.com/intl/nl/events/io/2009/sessions/GoogleWebToolkit
 BestPractices.html


 So in GWT I usually have:

 (only 1) AppController
 (several) Presenter + View + Model triads

 A view dispatches events to which the presenter listens.
 Presenter talks to view via its interface.

 View doesn't know the presenter, Presenter doesn't know the view, only 
 its interface.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] MVC style Correction

That idea that the one thing MVC interpretations have in common - that
models can only be updated by the controller makes sense.

I tried to learn MVC a few times before it really stuck in my head. 
These where the problems I encountered:
- What does MVC apply to? Is it an application level framework, or does it
apply to tiny parts? In other words, do you have one or many in your app?
(the scope the pattern was meant to apply to wasn't apparent from most
descriptions.)
- If I have to have a different view for each bit of model data - why bother
with it all (the idea that you should work to make generic reusable views
was never clear from most descriptions.)
- How does the communication work again? Most diagrams are slightly
different from the others and the dotted line connector lines vs. the solid
lines never made as much sense as the road lines metaphor in the diagrams I
linked to.

The video I linked to addressed each of those issues, for the first time.
Really though the problem is there are so many different interpretations of
this pattern it's almost not really a pattern at all - more like a group
of similar patterns, and that variance makes it hard to learn and understand
(this thread is kind of proof, IMHO).

What I ended up taking away from that video the first time I came accross it
last year was the model - controller side, the idea that the controller
directly manipuates the model and the views - it basically controls
things. And the model broadcast tower diagrams for notifying the controller
of changes was useful. I applied the same communication idea to the view
side, as it seemed very iOS specific (even mimicking the UI of XCode to an
extent in the diagrams), and overcomplicated anyway (3 different
communication methods - enough already). I also don't usually bother with
the data source or adapters (but I don't deal with a ton of changing remote
data, usually just an item list that the view can handle).

The guy in the video did slip a little assume the model and view don't
communicate *for the purposes of this class* in there - which indicates at
least at a some point having a model specific view makes sense (I do that a
lot - frankly a lot of the UIs I make aren't generic, so why bother with a
generic view framework). It's still mostly MVC in the end, but it's not a
strict implementation of that specific pattern. But when someone is first
trying to learn MVC, the exceptions could be superfluous information the
learner probably doesn't need.

Models shouldn't have any knowledge of each other or anything outside of 
themselves. The controller should usually be the first area to set up.
Everything else is set up and managed by the controller (views, models, 
services). Usually, there will be one central controller that handles your main 
program management. Other controllers can be set up and delegated by the main 
controller, but this is not always necessary. In a well set up MVC application,

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] MVC style

I am an MVC purist, I always proceed as follows:

Models should ONLY store information, particularly the state of the
application and any data retrieved from disk or the network.

Views hold a reference to a model, watch it for updates, and respond to
those updates by rendering the model in its current state. 'rendering' could
refer to manipulating the display list in flash, outputting some text to
stout (or trace) serving up some JSON from a server app, whatever way of
expressing the state of the model your app requires. Views are also
responsible for  handling events that occur in their domain, and forwarding
them to the appropriate Controllers.
Controllers exist to manipulate models. The only acceptable way to alter a
model is via a controller. Whether its storing data from a Web service in
the model, or altering the state of the app in response to user interaction,
the controllers hold all of the business logic that define how the app
behaves.

Ideally, in AS3, the models consist of no methods except accessors that
retrieve values from private vars and store values there and notify
subscribed views of the update. Event dispatcher is a fantastic base class
for a model.
Equally, wherever possible, a controller should only consist of methods.
Properties are for the model.
This sets up a unidirectional flow of interaction and display. The
controller populates the model, the model notifies the views, the views
change. The changed view incites some user interaction, the view tells the
controller what the user wants to happen, and the controller alters the
state of the model accordingly, which then notifies the views to change, and
so on and so forth.

[Flashcoders] Array sort issue

[Cor]

I have a multi-dimensional array loaded with xml.
Now I need to sort the aMain array depending on the users choice.
But it has to be sorted the values of the inner array.

for (){
  aMain.push( [xml.TRACK[n].SUB_TRACK[m].BEAM,
xml.TRACK[n].SUB_TRACK[m].SPOT, etc...]);
}

How would I do this?

 Excellent job.
 
 I have one small point, on a practical level.
 
 For the views, in particular, I don't usually pass arguments to the
constructor. It's not such a big deal for code-only examples, but in my
flash world I mix my components between stuff created dynamically and things
created in the IDE - sometimes I build components as assemblies on the stage
using the IDE. The point is that passing arguments to the constructor then
becomes an issue for a view.
 
 Might I suggest an init() function to pass in Model and Controller?

(UGH... I hate RTF Web editors)

RobotLegs is not a big framework at all. In comparison with most of the other 
frameworks out there, it's overhead is far far less than ones like Cairngorm, 
Spring and Parsley. Even compared to Mate and SWIZ (which are very small to 
begin with), then RobotLegs is lighter at 47K overhead.

Main problem that I see with the code that was posted is that it breaks a major 
MVC rule and teaches a real bad habit: Views shouldn't have any knowledge of 
Models and Models shouldn't care who's using them (Controllers are just 
conduits between Views and Models). On a larger scale, this would present 
itself to be a huge maintenance nightmare and dependencies have now been 
created. Everything should be independent of each other enough that I could 
replace one section without affecting the operation of anything else in the 
application. In this case. the controller should be passing either Value or 
Transfer Objects back and forth between the View and Model. This way, I could 
change models on the fly and the controller and view wouldn't suspect a thing.

RobotLegs is an excellent example for learning about MVC.

Rodrigo, 

Thank you.
It works OK on a windows PC, regardless the error about too big a size.
But on the MAC it prints complete black pages.
If I print to PDF it works but sometimes it fails because of running script
time...

I switch to AlivePDF now, but if anyone is interested in my PrinterOutput
class, here it is:

If someone detects where I am going wrong, don't hesitate to tell me :-)

--- BEGIN CODE
/*
The Rectangle object's dimensions (width and height) are set in pixels. 
The printer, however, uses points as measuring units instead of pixels. 
Points have a fixed physical size - 1/72 of an inch, while a pixel on the
screen depends on the resolution of that screen.
The transformation multiplier between pixels and points depends on the
printer's settings and the Sprite object's scale.

A non-scaled Sprite object that has a width of 72 pixels will be printed
with 1 inch in width. 
One point will equal one pixel, no matter what the screen resolution is.

Here are some of the relations that might come in handy:

1 point = 20 tweeps = 1/72 inches
1 inch = 72 points = 1440 tweeps
1 cm = 567 tweeps

Beeldscherm 72 pixels/inch:
8,268 x 11,693 inch = 21 x 29,7 cm = 595 x 842 pixels Printer 300
pixels/inch:
8,268 x 11,693 inch = 21 x 29,7 cm = 2480 x 3508 pixels


If you need to change the scale of your Sprite object that you're going to
print, do it before you call the addPage() method on it.

Note that printArea property and the Sprite object's scale are not
connected. 
So, if you set your print area to 100 x 100 pixels, it is going to print
1 pixels total. 
If you re-scale your Sprite object, it will print the same 1 pixels, but
the Sprite object is printed in its rescaled appearance.

Hi, 

Look at AlivePDF.
I am figuring out how this works with Flash (just started)

I have issues printing from flash.
It errors that the size is too big and of that filters can't be printed.
However, I don't use filters and the size of my MC is 595x842 which is the
exact size of PrintJob.pageSize
On Windows it prints OK, but on MAC systems it gives total black prints.

Can you tell me how you do your printing?

 First up, I find I have to often bypass URLVariables because it 
 simply doesn't work, as is the case here. But the real problem is
 thus:
 1) When I test this on my Mac, calling the data from my server, 
 everything works fine.
 2) When I test this on my server, calling the page TTW, everything 
 works fine if id has a value and pkg does not.
 3) When I test my python script that generates the data on my 
 server passing a value only for pkg, everything displays fine; 
 however;
 4) When I test this on my server, calling the page TTW with no 
 value for id and a value for pkg, e.target.data only serves up 
 this string -- which is incomprehensible to me.
 How do I trouble-shoot this?
 TIA,

Thanks Glen!

This is what I was looking for.
I use URLVariables in many occasions, but that is always like 1 record.

The (multi-records)part in php is really my problem.
I think I can work-out your example!

Hi,

 You can post multidimensional arrays to PHP for example in an HTML
form, this is better than GET which may have a lower limit on the number of
characters that can be sent in a request (as I found out with some JQuery
stuff)...

 http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.post.php
 http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.post.php#96902

 You can do:

input name=myArray[0][id] value=123/

 So in Flash you could do the same by setting the appropriate variables
in a URLVariables, but note, you probably have to call your variables
something like this:

 var data:URLVariables = new URLVariables();

 data[myArray[0][id]] = 123;

 So you could loop through your datagrid and submit the values that way
- you would need to add a count variable which tells PHP how many objects
are in your array, then you could do:

?php
 $num_items = isset($_POST['num_items']) ? 
(int)$_POST['num_items'] : 0;
 for($i = 0; $i  $num_items;$i++) {
 $id = $_POST[myArray][$i][id];
 //...
 }
 ?

 Alternatively - and less data-intensively, you could save the values
every time someone changes a field and then it loses focus.  You would have
to save each variable separately so you would need a form processor that
handles some kind of id, a variable name and a value that you then add /
update in the database (if there is no id field, you could be inserting
data).

 You could use Sephiroth's serialiazer system:

 http://www.sephiroth.it/test/unserializer/

 Or some other way of dealing with the data like AMF, etc.

 There used to be some good stuff on Flash DB http://www.flash-db.com/,
but it appears to be down now, so maybe it has gone the way of many
websites...

 I think there are lots of libraries that do a lot of the crappy grunt
work for you with Flash - Database stuff so whilst it's good to learn the
principles, you would possibly benefit from finding something like these in
the long run, especially where security is concerned:

 http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.database.php

 Hope this helps you a little.

 If only you could assign an object to URLVariables and have it post
properly

 Glen

 Assuming you know enough php to set up the file for connecting to your

Do you mean that is it not possible to send an array from Flash to PHP in
this way:

private function validateAndSend(e:MouseEvent):void {
form_variables = new URLVariables();
form_varSend=new URLRequest(Main.PHP_URL+control.php);
form_varSend.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;
form_varSend.data=form_variables;
form_varLoader=new URLLoader  ;
form_varLoader.dataFormat=URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
form_variables.sendRequest = registreer_materiaal;
form_variables.VALUES = myMultiDimArray;
form_varLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
completeLoadHandler);   
form_varLoader.load(form_varSend);
}

I'm not a PHP expert, but in general you can't really submit an array as
form data directly to a CGI program. You have to post name-value pairs - if
you have a set of array values, they'd simply end up having the same name
and different values (like a checkbox array in HTML, for example). In your
case, things are a bit more complicated because you have an array of
structs, basically, so you'll need to convert those to a bunch of individual
name-value pairs in order to submit them to a CGI program.

RE: [Flashcoders] DataGrid: save multidim arrayfrom Flash to mySQL with PHP

[Cor]

Karl,

Thank you very much!!

But this would create a lot of network traffic, open connection and
database, do mysql_query and close db conn??

You wrote in the previous mail:
I should mention that I use this stuff inside php classes. so $this- has
already been defined as the class your currently in.
Like the database class, $database-addDescription(); is called outside the
class. if it was called inside the database class file, it would be
$this-addDescription();. Also, the php file name thats called from flash is
database.php. etc, etc. FYI.

- a process.php, this retrieves your variables from flash, makes sure its
not a bot, any verify codes checked here, etc
- then send it to your sessions.php for validation and set your errors here
to send back with.
- then send to your database.php for stripping, manipulation and insertion.

This is what I am looking for (to learn) and where my knowledge of PHP
stops...

You can address me directly if you like: codo AT chello DOT nl

Cor van Dooren

but probably easier to split it up when gathering the info in flash.
multiple small queries instead of a bulky single query?

 My problem is how to fetch my $_POST['VALUES'], which is the 
 multi-dimensional  array:

 myArray[0[id]
  myArray[0][name]
  myArray[0][description]

 ...

 etc.

 I'm not a PHP expert, but in general you can't really submit an array 
 as form data directly to a CGI program. You have to post name-value 
 pairs - if you have a set of array values, they'd simply end up having 
 the same name and different values (like a checkbox array in HTML, for 
 example).
 In your
 case, things are a bit more complicated because you have an array of 
 structs, basically, so you'll need to convert those to a bunch of 
 individual name-value pairs in order to submit them to a CGI program.

Thanks David,

OK, HTTP - String... that clears a lot!
Can you give a little example of how to do you typically have to serialize
your data to send via HTTP, then deserialize the sent data to use it as an
object that's not a string.

 Do you mean that is it not possible to send an array from Flash to PHP 
 in this way:

        private function validateAndSend(e:MouseEvent):void {
                form_variables = new URLVariables();
...
                form_variables.VALUES = myMultiDimArray;
                form_varLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
 completeLoadHandler);
                form_varLoader.load(form_varSend);
        }

That would send a single form field, VALUES, with a single value containing
something that's not a string. But sending data via HTTP requires that you
use strings. In the simplest case, you'd at least have to convert the array
to a string to store it within the single form field. This kind of thing is
a fairly common problem with web applications - you typically have to
serialize your data to send via HTTP, then deserialize the sent data to use
it as an object that's not a string.

Normally, as an occasional Flex guy, I end up using AMF which includes
serialization/deserialization functionality to handle this for you.

RE: [Flashcoders] DataGrid: save multidim arrayfrom Flash to mySQL with PHP

Hi Karl,

The Flash part is no problem.
But in PHP I am a novice!

So far I learned that I should think of sending Strings to PHP instead of a
complete multi-dim array.
I don't know how to set up PHP to open it once. Do all your sending and
inserting, then close once I am done?
Do you have some examples of your construction with the different
files/classes?

Best regards,
Cor van Dooren

in main i call testhalgheh();

Cor: Yes, but your Timer gets create 1 line below your function caal, so at 
that moment it does not exist.

it stuck in loop untill it get true in logic I think when the timer start it 
shouldnt related to thing so during loop the timer event should work and code
if(generalFlag==true)
{
trace(hello)
counter+=1;

should work but the test show the flag doest get true why is that the timer 
shoudl work independently

true

This loop is running and your timer callback function has not yet set the 
Boolean to true

while (counter1000) {
if (generalFlag==true) {
trace(hello);
counter++;
}
}

And then it get in the infinite loop

RE: [Flashcoders] Incorrect XML from PHP to Flash

Hi Karl,

Thank you!
I already use mysql_real_escape_string() to write to my database.
And in fact I am reading the http://www.php.net/manual/... at the moment you
send your mail.

I do think it has to do with using URLVariables in Flash rather than my
database or PHP.
I have looked at the tutorials on 
http://www.developphp.com/view.php?tid=740t=Discover_Dynamic_XML_MySQL_PHP_

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Incorrect XML from PHP to Flash

Hi Cor,
I think it is because information added to a database is usually escaped, so
when you pull it out, you get the escaped string instead of what you
originally typed.
Most, not all php coders, will put the string through something like
mysql_real_escape_string()
before inserting it into the database which will produce the exact results
your getting.
If you apply one of the following functions to the information once pulled
out, it should work.

You could try..

$String = htmlspecialchars_decode($string, ENT_QUOTES);

or

$String = html_entity_decode($string, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');

(There are also different options for the second and third parameters.
ENT_QUOTES and 'UTF-8' can be changed to your suiting depending on what
style of quoting or character set you need. But for what your needing, I
think ENT_QUOTES is right.
It will return p  instead of quote;lt;pgt;quote; (that is what
ENT_NOQUOTES does).)

I suggest these links if you want to learn more about what's going on with
these to see if they are a fit.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars-decode.php

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.html-entity-decode.php

Also, if you find it still not working, use one of the above functions, but
then try putting the return $String text inside a CDATA [].

HTH,

Best,
Karl

RE: [Flashcoders] Incorrect XML from PHP to Flash {RESOLVED}

OK, so when I change the output line in my PHP from:
print  $response;
to
print returnString=$response;

It traces out a correct XML:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 ?

Hi Karl,

Thank you!
I already use mysql_real_escape_string() to write to my database.
And in fact I am reading the http://www.php.net/manual/... at the moment you
send your mail.

I do think it has to do with using URLVariables in Flash rather than my
database or PHP.
I have looked at the tutorials on
http://www.developphp.com/view.php?tid=740t=Discover_Dynamic_XML_MySQL_PHP_
Database_Results_Loop_Tutorial
 and there is the same construction but his works appearantly...

Hi Cor,
I think it is because information added to a database is usually escaped, so
when you pull it out, you get the escaped string instead of what you
originally typed.
Most, not all php coders, will put the string through something like
mysql_real_escape_string()
before inserting it into the database which will produce the exact results
your getting.
If you apply one of the following functions to the information once pulled
out, it should work.

You could try..

$String = htmlspecialchars_decode($string, ENT_QUOTES);

or

$String = html_entity_decode($string, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');

(There are also different options for the second and third parameters.
ENT_QUOTES and 'UTF-8' can be changed to your suiting depending on what
style of quoting or character set you need. But for what your needing, I
think ENT_QUOTES is right.
It will return p  instead of quote;lt;pgt;quote; (that is what
ENT_NOQUOTES does).)

I suggest these links if you want to learn more about what's going on with
these to see if they are a fit.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars-decode.php

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.html-entity-decode.php

Also, if you find it still not working, use one of the above functions, but
then try putting the return $String text inside a CDATA [].

HTH,

Best,
Karl

You shouldn't change your php code. You should change the actionscript code.

Hmm, maybe not URL encoding.

What happens when you call the php page directly - in Firefox, does it show
you the XML, or do you have to view the source?  (The former would mean
firefox considered it valid xml)

Does the XML show all the url-encoded characters, or is it just in Flash?

As an aside to help with your XML, you could do this - it might not help
your encoding, check the results by echoing them out I guess?

 //Don't worry about \n and whitespace in your $response var, the
DOMDocument will sort it out ;)
 //You don't need to include the ?xml? tag either.
 $response = 
 //...
 $doc = new DOMDocument();
 $doc-preserveWhiteSpace = false;
 $doc-formatOutput = true;
 $doc-loadXML($response);
 echo $doc-saveXML();


 Another trick might be to do this to make your output a bit more 
easy to automate:

 $fields = array(code, datum, klant_nummer, ...);

 while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
 $response .=project;


 foreach($fields as $field) {
 $response .= project_${field}![CDATA[ .$row[project_ 
.$field] .]]/project_${field};
 }

 I think I know what you want. Have your app calculate how high it 
 needs to be, then call out using javascript to a method which changes 
 the dimensions of a div, where your SWF embed is made at 100%. It can 
 keep calling that method. Just make sure your SWF has noScale, etc.
 set within it. I've done this to generate charts that are a dynamic 
 height based on data to represent... the page will expand to 
 accommodate the div so your SWF never gets clipped.

Set the embeding code to use a dynamic size, such as 100 %. Then use the

RE: [Flashcoders] scrolling webpage with flash

[Cor]

Thanks Kevin!

I understand what you are saying, but I have no ideas how to do this.
Can you be more specific or perhaps some example?

Best regards,

It sounds like you would need to use ExternalInterface and JavaScript to
resize your HTML container for the swf.

I'd suggest wrapping the swf container (whatever embedding solution you are
using) in a div, setting your swf container (object/embed tag, swfobject, or
whatever) to 100%, and setting the height of parent div when the content
size changes from within the swf, using ExternalInterface.

There is no way to set the size of the stage from within Flash.

 Swffit works fine... when resizing the browser, but my issue is that 
 the browser is never resized, but the content in the swf grows

 So I would like to get my swf-dimensions variable.

I think I know what you want. Have your app calculate how high it needs to be, 
then call out using javascript to a method which changes the dimensions of a 
div, where your SWF embed is made at 100%. It can keep calling that method. 
Just make sure your SWF has noScale, etc.
set within it. I've done this to generate charts that are a dynamic height 
based on data to represent... the page will expand to accommodate the div so 
your SWF never gets clipped.

I don't need an animation package, a class that cuts a displayObject up, 
disassembles it on a pixel-level basis, explodes it out, and then reassembles 
the pixels of the displayObject in a different location. If I do this myself 
it's going to take a lot of time, looking for something out there that can do 
this already.

RE: [Flashcoders] using this in AS3 classes?

Micky,

There are no stupid questions!
Only stupid people who don't ask their question... and yes, there are stupid 
answers. :-)

As for the prefix, IMO it is unnecessary, but some people find it easier to 
read their code.
I'll will not call myself a pro, but I never use it.

Subject: [Flashcoders] using this in AS3 classes?

Hi,

Stupid question, but...

Let's say I have some class properties:

private var _mc1:MovieClip;
private var _mc2:MovieClip;

... and methods:

private function baz():void { ... }
private function foo():void { ... }

In my code, would it be overkill to always reference the above examples with a 
prefix of this?

For example:

this._mc1 = ...;
this._mc2 = this.mc1;
this.baz();
this.foo();

I could easily do this instead:

_mc1 = ...;
_mc2 = mc1;
baz();
foo();

Sorry if silly question, I am just kinda wondering what the pros do. :)

Best practices?

Thanks!

Subject: [Flashcoders] as3 component screen redraw

Hi list,
In a large project I encounter a strange problem, which I don't know how to
tackle.
The project is almost done and only now it appears that a significant part
of the targetted users view the project on a thin client with NX (?
completely out of my league here).
On 'normal' computers the project behaves as expected but on thin clients
somethimes (not always) there are problems:
From what I have seen this is what happens:
- the project loads properly, pulling in all external assets
- regular Flash AS3 components do not redraw properly but behave as expected
(e.g.: a button is not drawn on screen but for its label (with wrong font).
But clicking the button label results in expected behaviour.
I know nothing about thin clients, except from what wikipedia learns me (one
of their drawbacks is poor multimedia performance) and, of course trouble
shooting is next to impossible as I have no access to a thin client.

My questions:
Does this sound familiar to anybody?
Is there anything I can do from the flash side?
TIA
Willem van den Goorbergh

RE: [Flashcoders] dynmically adding waves together problem

[Cor]

I draw my wave with this class:

package com.codobyte.display{
/*
@class: Sinus

@author:Cor van Dooren

@usage: Draw sinus dynamically
@syntax:var s:Sinus= new Sinus(params);
@params:positieX:int=0,
positieY:int=200,
lengte:int=200,
hoogte:int=200,
kleur:uint=0x00,
lijndikte:int=2
@methods:   s.startWave();
s.stopWave();   
*/
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

public class Sinus extends Sprite {

private var positieX:int;
private var positieY:int;
private var hoogte:int;
private var lengte:int;
private var kleur:uint;
private var lijndikte:int;
private var val:int;

public function Sinus(positieX:int=0, positieY:int=200,
lengte:int=200, hoogte:int=200, kleur:uint=0x00, lijndikte:int=2) {
this.positieX=positieX;
this.positieY= positieY;
this.lengte= lengte;
this.hoogte= hoogte;
this.kleur= kleur;
this.lijndikte=lijndikte;
val=0;
if (stage) {
init(null);
} else {
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init,
false, 0, true);
}
}//end CONSTRUCTOR

private function init(e:Event):void {
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
graphics.lineStyle(lijndikte, kleur);
graphics.moveTo(positieX, positieY);
addEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, stopWave,
false,0,true);
}
public function startWave():void {
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterframe,
false, 0, true);
}

public function stopWave():void {
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterframe);
removeEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE,
stopWave);
}

private function enterframe(e:Event):void {
tekenSinus(val+=2);
}

private function tekenSinus(psdValue:int):void {
graphics.lineTo(positieX+psdValue+2,
positieY+hoogte*Math.sin(psdValue*360/lengte * Math.PI/180));
}
}
}

So how would I fit this in?
Reagrds,

It would seem to me that you are drawing the two waves with some kind of
sine function.

Y1 = Sin(x1+Phase1)
Y2 = Sin(x2+Phase2)

So all you have do to create the third is
Y3 = Sin(x1+Phase1) + Sin(x2+Phase2)

Remember of course that Y3 will have a max/min of +2/-2 assuming of course
that originals are +1/-1 range as they should be with no amplitude
adjustment.

Hi All,
 
I need to draw waves dynamically which can be influenced at runtime.
These waves then have to add together and show the result in a third wave.

[Flashcoders] typechecking ActionScript 3.0

[Cor]

Hi all,

Anyone encountered this error before?

Warning: 5004: The file 'playerglobal.swc', which is required for
typechecking ActionScript 3.0, could not be found. Please make sure the
directory '$(AppConfig)/ActionScript 3.0/Classes' is listed in the global
classpath of the ActionScript 3.0 Preferences.

I checked the directory and found that file is in there. I even reinstalled
the application only to have that error again later on.

Does anyone know how to solve this??

In Flash, File - Publish Settings - Flash tab - beside ActionScript 3.0,
Settings - Library path. You should see '$(AppConfig)/ActionScript
3.0/Classes' there. If it's not, click on the folder icon navigate to it,
choose it, and you should be good.

On my system, Windows 7, it's in C:\Users\Kerry\AppData\Local\Adobe\Flash
CS5.5\en_US\Configuration. It's the same on CS5 and CS4 (except, of course,
in  CS5 and CS4 folders). In CS3, the only difference is the folder is
called Flash CS3\en.

Cordially,

Hi all,


Can anyone advise me the best way to load one swf movie after
another into main movie.
  I  have 12-15 seperate swf files in action script 2.0 

What I want to happen is have the first swf load in, start, play
fully, and then move on to the next one when it is finished. Ideally i want
one movie to the next to be seemless.
 Can I have the others swf`s loading in the background while the
first one is playing
   
   I am using as2.0
