Sorry, if it sounded like I meant it was a scoping problem. They just cannot have the same name for compiler purposes. I was just pointing out that you had duplicate property names. Coming from the .NET world this is very normal for me. I should have just said You have a duplicate property name

[flexcoders] Using [Event...] in Custom Classes

2007-08-25 Thread Tony Alves
Jurgen, I believe the problem here is that you are setting up a metadata tag on your class in actionscript which is not needed and I think it was said that Event meta tags are ignored by the compiler in ActionScript classes. Someone here can clear that up for us. I am not sure why, but it is

[flexcoders] Memory leaks

2007-08-25 Thread André Rodrigues Pena
Hi all, It might be a well-known that Flex has several memory issues. It doesn't completely free the memory of the components you add runtime, when you remove them from their containers, and when it comes to large-scale applications, this is a huge concern. The way my co-workers found to pass by

[flexcoders] Fractional scroll gotcha

I'm on a tight schedule to produce a scrollable zoomable document view - a vertical list of images (pages) of varying sizes. This has already been done on the project in HTML (without the zooming), and I was hoping to effectively demonstrate the power of Flex. So I created a page component that

RE: [flexcoders] Memory leaks

2007-08-25 Thread Alex Harui
There are two major memory usage scenarios in Flex. One involves creating a new instance of a component, displaying, and later destroying it. The other involves bringing in one or more classes of components in a module and trying to get rid of that module later when its classes are no longer

Yeah, here's the way I think it works in the current FB 3 release anyway (which is the way ben described too): You put metadata in your class, something like: [Event(name=myEvent, type=com.me.MyEvent)] So then you type: myClass.addEventListener( and then the auto events come up in the list that

Right, Flex WebServices are focused on SOAP 1.1 support and this will not change in Flex 3. A new implementation of Flex WebServices was introduced in Flex 2.0.1 HF2 to coincide with LCDS 2.5 (though there are a few gaps and will be more complete in Flex 3). This implementation is focused on

Yea, I guess I am just going to have to fall in line with my constant-naming practices for now, but I think its something that should be fixed. The whole point (besides code hinting) of [Event] tags (and the type attribute specifically) is to give the compiler info on where to go look for those
