True.



But the processing of the XML is only part
of a request. If a certain query itself takes 5 seconds to complete, you can do
your best in the remoting part of the transaction, but it will not bring you much.

You are forgetting that if a request takes half the
time to complete, it 
needs less cpu time and you can double the concurrent requests per server.

 I simply have to disagree here. We can demonstrate several in

 client nor a user complained about the performance of runtime data
 services based on SOAP.

 There are a few false rumors that continue to creep up in the Flex
 community about the performance issues around SOAP.

 There are benchmarks which show that AMF can be drastically faster
 than a SOAP call for the same data. Sometimes even 100% faster. Yup
 that's true there are. But you have to peel away the layers of the
 onion to see the reality. Statistics can be misleading. For
 instance, if AMF is 300 milliseconds and SOAP is 600 milliseconds the
 100% difference isnt even relative. How many people do you know who
 can even see 1/3 of a seconds difference? In the end raw marshalling
 isnt the issue, it is the user and their experience. Flex2 made
 DRASTIC improvements it the performance of XML parsing and in our own
 benchmarks the delta between the two services choices is often as low
 as 10%.

 Of a much greater impact that the marshalling time is the UI
 shredding and binding of the data. Most badly performing RIA's
 suffer from data being returned from the back-end in a format that
 holds no fidelity with the RIA. This requires the RIA to tear apart
 the returned structural data and place it into its own structures and
 objects and bind those to UI controls. Developing your user
 experience in a front-to-back approach which assures great fidelity
 between the data formats of the tiers can account for an order of
 magnitude performance increase. That is the kind of performance
 increase users will actually experience. 

 There are many other very smart things you can do like extending
 existing controls to do streaming rendering of data to provide the
 perception of speed, server side paging, caching, etc. 

 In the end perception is reality. All that matters from the UI
 perspective is the experience that the user has. Worring about 300
 milliseconds is like trying to debate the number of angels that could
 dance on the end of a pin. If the user can't see them, it doesn't
 matter how many there are.

 The running rumor that you simply cannot develop first class RIAs in
 Flex using a SOAP web services back-end is simply not accurate, and we
 have the apps in production with our clients to prove it.

I have to agree with Ted regarding productivity.

Of course I may just be revealing that I am not as smart as the rest of you,
but when I was considering various means of connecting to my java server during
the transition to Flex2, I explored Axis and Axis2 for web services. 

Figuring out how to use them was *no joke*. I am sure if I had dedicated the
time to it I could have gotten up and running. But, honestly, I gave up after
several days of study.

The Axis umailing list was fairly useless for beginners, there were lots of
people having problems with Axis2 and the documentation was almost unbearable.
Now if you are already an expert then none of this applies to you. But the idea
that from flash that you can just call your server side code just by declaring
the classes you are working with in a configuration file is magic. It is so
easy. Of course the typing issues on web services sound like a bear too and
there are none with remoting, but I cant really talk about that because I never
got that far with web services. 

FDS and Flex2 are far far easier to work with. My only problem with FDS is
pricing. Remoting used to cost $1000 or so per server, or it was free if you
used an open source solution. Now it costs $20,000 per server after you need
more than one server. I may actually have to switch back to an AMF0 version of
remoting by the time my first server is overwhelmed because $20k is insane. I
am using amazon S3 and for 20k worth of bandwidth and storage I could support
millions of users over a year. but 20k in FDS software probably only supports
100k users. So the economics of FDS are insane. They are probably driven by the
desire not to screw the Flex 1.5 people who paid a lot of money for their
servers. Nevertheless, for remoting only apps FDS pricing is the only reason
not to use it. But technically if you dont have to learn web services FDS will
save you a lot of time.

Hank

Web
Services are dependent on XML Parsing on both the client and server side.
Although it's a good story, XML parsers are not very efficient as parsing
documents is an interpreted process. The Flash Player XML parser will always be
dramatically slower than AMF parsing, binary formats are notoriously faster in
this regard. 



XML
parsing additionally decays rapidly as the file size increases. Flash Player
XML parsing time increase non-linearly with larger XML documents. With AMF
parsing times are linear with data size. The XML decay can be attributed to the
number of inner objects that need to be created during a parsing run. AMF
objects are 1:1 with the data received where XML data is 1:N per
Elements/Attribute.



Comparing
XML to AMF is an unfair race, AMF wins every time. When you add in the overhead
of WS SOAP parsing atop the base XML parser speed you begin to see performance
issues. With SOAP, you interpret an XML document back into typed objects
depending on the SOAP specifics used. Sure 350ms is ok once or twice, but try
doing 200 transactions in this format and you will see performance issues arise.
Using Web Services you are forcing the Flash Player to do allot of unneeded
work. The goal is to build richer applications, not burn up player performance
in crud operations.



Additionally
non-proxied Web Service use suffers with Flash Player because of the browser
variation in the plug-in APIS. You cannot get the 500 Errors response content
in IE and thus the SOAP fault standard breaks down. In SOAP there are important
messages that arrive with 500 Errors and the inability of the Flash Player to
receive these is a problem. Unfortunately there is no seamless way to get 500
Errors into the Flash Player other then rewriting an HTTP Client in the Socket
class. This effort would also require a new SOAP library within Flex and socket
use on low ports requires a more complex crossdomain.xml configuration.
Even then you still suffer the same performance issues.



Performance
aside, the productivity discussion is much more important. AMF3 and Flex Data
Services are wildly productive. Once you compile your Java

Hi Franck,

Although your post was directed at Ted my opinion is that 
for UI performance, transferring XML is justtoo slow.
Having to construct XML on the server, send it and then 
parse it in Flex is just too much hassle without any benefits over the 
AMF.
The main attraction of AMF3 for our company is being able 
to maintain complex typed object structures without any parsing when 
communicating between JAVA and FLEX.
The UIresponse time is also a huge plus when dealing 
with user interaction, XML is just to cumbersome. 
Development time is also greatly reduced, provided the 
technology works, which seems to be the case with AMF3 as opposed to AMF0 which 
we faced all sorts of issues when pushing it to it's limits.

Hi 
Ted,

At the risk of 
offending you ... the more people shout, the less I listen to 
them.

I totally agree with 
you (again!) that FDS is much more than just remoting. And if the solution 
requires the other features of FDS (that webservices cannot provide), FDS is a 
good option to choose. Pricing might be an issue, but in the area (financial 
services) I work in, I don’t expect it to be a real 
issue.

If the requirement of 
your software project is indeed to support client PCs from the previous century, 
of course you need to check what the user experience is on those machines 
(again: that’s the only driving factor). For me, this does not apply, since the 
applications I build are 90% intranet applications (enterprise administrative 
systems); these environments normally do not have so many problems parsing an 
XML message.

I always strive to 
build my solutions on standards and don’t want to rely on proprietary frameworks 
and tools, when I don’t need to. It gives me freedom and makes me more resilient 
to change. So, for the last time, in my area I don’t see the need for messaging 
and data management (2 of the 4 major parts that you mention), and so far I have 
not suffered from any user experience issues due to the usage of webservices 
(point 4).

Remains the 
productivity issue (point 3). For that I am willing to pay the price of choosing 
a standard instead of locking into a proprietary framework, since I believe that 
it will not drive up the total costs of a software development project 
significantly.

To your question ‘Would 
non-flash clients for AMF and Messaging help?’ ... I don’t think so. AMF will 
never become a standard like webservices are now. Pushing AMF as a new remoting 
standard would be a big mistake. You’d burn a lot of money with probably no 
success.

Maybe this will sound 
strange now, but I am no great fan of web services. I think it is a lousy 
technology. But it’s the technology that the big industries are standardizing on 
now. And that’s the great benefit. Although the technology is lousy, it does its 
job. There are interoperability issues, but in due time they will be fixed. 
After the journey of RPC, CORBA, RMI (and other proprietary communication 
protocols ... I remember PowerBuilder had its own as well), I hope that web 
services will be the final technology that will be settled on. Then, we can 
start focusing our valuable time on the business at hand and not on the exchange 
of data between client and server, which should be something 
trivial.

By the way, writing 
that last paragraph made me wonder why Macromedia did not choose RMI for the 
remoting protocol, but have you chosen to develop your own 
(AMF)?

Franck

Hi Anas,

After you've logged in via your JSP login page you'll have an authenticated 
HttpSession on the server. If you then visit an mxml app hosted within the same 
web application (under the same context root) any remoting/messaging/data 
service interaction the mxml app has with the server will use this same 
authenticated session as long as the mxml app is contacting the server over an 
AMF or HTTP channel.

If you want to display specific info about the logged in user in the mxml app, 
the simplest route would be to use RemoteObject to request it from the server. 
You'd just need to write a simple POJO that looked up the info you wanted from 
the current authenticated server session.

In an ideal development process for Client and Server side

To answer your first question, these objects converted to

Hi 
Bjorn,

Could you provide me 
some insight in how large your objects are and how complex they are? In XML, how 
many lines would it be? And how many nested levels would it 
be?

In the applications I 
build, the XML is at the most 100  1000 lines, and I don’t see many problems 
with it. But, if you are pushing 1000s of lines over the line, I can understand 
it can become an issue. In terms of nesting I typically encounter 2 or 3 levels 
(objects) deep, but not much deeper. Also this is not causing many issues. It 
always depends on how you have architectured your 
interface.

Probably you are in the 
luxury where you can also dictate the back-end technology. This is not always 
the case. Most often the back-end is already there and you just have to plug a 
GUI on top of it.

Re: [flexcoders] Embedded SWF as backgroundImage causing mouseOut event to dispatch

2006-08-25 Thread Samuel Reuben



have you tried using rollOver and rollOut?

Please let me know if it works,

Hi All,I've created a container which contains a couple of sub-containers that have SWF symbols set to the backgroundImage. Problem is occurring when I set a mouseOver/mouseOut on the parent container, having the backgroundImages causes the mouseOut to get fired on the parent container. Any solutions to prevent this from happening? 
Example :[Embed(source='/assets/swf/elements.swf', symbol='flag_start')][Bindable] private var flag_start:Class;mx:HBox id=panelParent mouseOver=overMouse(event) mouseOut=outMouse(event) width=100% height=100% 
 //This container will cause the parent to dispatch the mouseOut event because of the backgroundImage // remove the backgroundImage and it doesn't happen  mx:HBox id=flag_start_box height=100% width=50% backgroundImage={flag_start} / 
/mx:HBoxThanks in advance,Brendan

[flexcoders] Re: Items Invisible in ComboBox

2006-08-25 Thread Tim Hoff
Hey Carlos,

It's hard to say without seeing the application.  I've experienced 
problems like this.  The solution was usually looking for 
interference from other actions; events that confuse the renderer 
and such.  If your component works, stand-alone, look outward.

[flexcoders] Disable items in a TileList using a CheckBox

2006-08-25 Thread Phil Marston
Hi All,

I'm sure this must be pretty easy, but I'm suffering a mental block!  :-/

I want some of the items in a tilelist to become inactive as a result of 
selecting a checkbox.  The items in the tilelist have a property of 
category that corresponds with the checkbox label so pseudocode would be:
for all items in tileList where item.category == chkbx.label { 
item.enabled = chkbx.selected }
I figure however there must be a way of using binding - any thoughts on 
how to do this either way?

Cheers,

Phil

[flexcoders] Re: Run Swf File in flash player.

2006-08-25 Thread flexnewbie06
Kumar, 

SWFLoader loads the requested SWF inside your flex app, if that is 
what you are trying to achieve then the following code will load an 
SWF that is located in the same directory as your .mxml file.  Just 
take out the @Embed().

mx:SWFLoader id=Load source=myswf.swf autoLoad=true 
height=100 width=350/

Good luck.

Hello group-
  I hadn't seen a previous post regarding this explicity so I wrote a

a reusable CairngormEvent versus creating separate classes for each
dispatchable event.

http://ebaggg.blogspot.com/2006/08/cairngormevent-anti-pattern-we-all.html

Thoughts?


The ideea is good, but how do you handle them further?
Will you have 3 different commands associated with the same event? And 
each Command will start with an if statement, to see if that's the event 
he supposed to answer to? Doesn't seem right.

Hi John,

Sure, the data object contains all of the individual column elements.  
You would have to conditionally change states or control types by

[flexcoders] Building Flex 2 project with Maven

2006-08-25 Thread lfontvielle
We are developing large Java applications. They are composed of
multiple Java projects implemented by different teams.
We use Maven (http://maven.apache.org/) to build our projects. The
projects can be built outside eclipse on an integration server as part
of a Maven project. Jar/war files are stored in the Maven repository.
Maven manages dependencies between projects, produces the Javadoc ...

We would like to use the same organization with Java/Flex 2 applications.
For an example: one team codes an ActionScript library (swc file) in a
project, and other teams can uses this library within their Flex project.

We don't know if a Maven plugin already exits that is capable of
managing a Flex project.

we would like to know:
1. If any Maven plugins have been developed for flex ?
2. Would you be interested in a Maven plugin for Flex ?

Thanks

Laurent.

 Hi David,
  I am glad that flexcoders is starting to work for you. I've been 
helped for other people in the list, and now that I know more about 
Flex, I am happy to help.
  See the example below, I think it does what you need. Note that I 
change the Label for a Text tag. I noticed that the Text tags 
displays BR and Label does not. Again, do not forget that you can 
only display basic HTML. I have seen the list of supported HTML tags 
someplace in the help.

 Thoughts?

I use a similar approach but i choose to keep the event ID's in the event 
themselves, not really much different just shifts a dependency from one place 
to 
another..

 
 The ideea is good, but how do you handle them further?
 Will you have 3 different commands associated with the same event? And 
 each Command will start with an if statement, to see if that's the event 
 he supposed to answer to? Doesn't seem right.

Commands are looked up and executed according to the event ID so you can 
register the events and commands like this in the WidgetController :

addCommand(EVENT_ADD_WIDGET, AddWidgetCommand);
addCommand(EVENT_DELETE_WIDGET, DeleteWidgetCommand);
addCommand(EVENT_UPDATE_WIDGET, UpdateWidgetCommand);

no need for branching in the command.

[flexcoders] Re: CairngormEvent Antipattern

2006-08-25 Thread e_baggg
Andi-
  Nothing changes with the FrontController and Commands. You would
still have 3 separate commands (1 each for add, update, delete).

Remember, the generic CairngormEvent classes calls:
super(commandName) 

so the dispatchEvent() for each call would like this:

 dispatchEvent(new WidgetEvent(WidgetFrontController.ADD_WIDGET,
widgetVO));
 dispatchEvent(new WidgetEvent(WidgetFrontController.UPDATE_WIDGET,
widgetVO));
 dispatchEvent(new WidgetEvent(WidgetFrontController.DELETE_WIDGET,
widgetVO));

and each Command will apropriately be called just like it was. The key
 is we're no longer hard-coding the WidgetFrontController.ADD_WIDGET
into each CairngormEvent sublcass.

[flexcoders] DataGrid, rowCount, variableRowHeight and wordWrap

2006-08-25 Thread Shannon Hicks





I have a DataGrid 
that I want to always show all 5 rows it will have. The problem is, I have 
variableRowHeight set to true, and when the grid gets populated with something 
that makes the row grow in height (or the window size changes, etc), the 
scrollbars appear. I'd like the grid to change it's height 
instead.

Any ideas on how to 
tackle that?

2006-08-25 Thread Santo
Bom dia pessoal,
Hi folks,

I want to know if anyone of you try make the POP3 by Socket example,
from IFBIN(Flex by Example), work with final version of Flex 2.
Now that he´s free, I try to test something but it just don´t work.
Don´t give me any errors. Seems to be a security issue, like

[flexcoders] If statment runs before remote call returns data

2006-08-25 Thread David Brown





I am writting a login function that calls a remote 
cfc and returns data. Based on the length of lastresult either show 
different view stack child or turn visiable on for label that displays no user 
found

The remote call works, but I have to press login 
button twice to display the no user found message or to switch to another child 
of the view stack.

It looks like the if statment exacutes before the 
remoteobject is returned...

Thank you in adance.

Re: [flexcoders] Items Invisible in ComboBox

2006-08-25 Thread Nate Hardt
I've seen this exact same behavior in a ComboBox that is in a  
DataGrid. I didn't have to time to fully explore the issue so I just  
set the rowCount property to more items than I had in the ComboBox.  
The problem didn't happen for me without scrolling in the ComboBox.

Nate

 I have a very standard combobox control:

 mx:ComboBox id=cbStatus dataProvider={statusesWithAll}

 When I click on it and it opens, some items are invisible.  The space
 for them is there, but the text is missing.  If I select an invisible
 item, it displays properly in the closed combobox and works as
 designed with the app.

 It seems to randomly make items appear and disappear with each open
 and close of the combobox.  Sometimes the selected item will reappear
 with the highlight on it or sometimes just the empty row will be
 highlighted.

 Any ideas?  Thanks,

[flexcoders] FDMS: check, if an item exists on the client?

2006-08-25 Thread Dirk Eismann
Is there any way in FDMS to get an item without really going to the
server if it's on the client already? 

I found that calling dataService.getItem(uid) always goes to the server,
even if the item in question is available on the client. This is
unnecessary overhead IMHO if the item is available in the
DataStore/Collection. 

Do I have to implement my own lookup strategy here???

Thanks,
Dirk.

RE: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] Problem: 500 No configured channel has an endpoint path '/flex2gateway/'

2006-08-25 Thread Shannon Hicks





Can you double-check that you really are running 7.0.2? The 
error sounds like it's saying the flex2gateway isn't configured, which would 
mean it was taken out of the config file, the 7.0.2 upgrade didn't put it in, or 
you're not running 7.0.2, and I'd say the latter two are most likely 
:)

Re: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] Re: Choice of backend systems - which provides

2006-08-25 Thread Evert | Collab
A webservice commonly does this:

* authentication (optional)
* a service/method is invoked with an optional set of arguments
* the service returns a result

Why not abstract your service system to allow SOAP + REST + XML-RPC + 
JSON + AMF ?

As long as the interface is abstracted, it doesnt matter anymore and for 
every problem you can pick the best tool for the job..

 J2EE server will do the parsing and translation of the web services 
 (this can impact all users as the system scales if the server isn’t 
 very powerful, or the services are poorly designed), as well as the 
 consumption of services in java isn’t always the easiest thing. On the 
 flip side of that your java server can also do the exception handling 
 and send better exceptions to the client side. This may be a good 
 middle ground for those searching for the benefits of both.

[flexcoders] Still Getting History Manager Security Sandbox Errors

2006-08-25 Thread Battershall, Jeff
I had thought that I had worked around this, but it appears I was wrong.
I am running a project using a virtual host defined in my Hosts file and
Apache.  I've never had this issue with 1.5.   

I keep getting Local Connection Security Sandbox errors.  What's odd is
it seems intermittent - sometimes I get this, sometimes I don't.  

Any advice appreciated.

RE: [flexcoders] POP3 by Socket

2006-08-25 Thread Ted Patrick












Rogerio,



http://www.crossdomainxml.org



http://www.crossdomainxml.org



With Socket operations you will need to have a
crossdomain.xml file on the server you are connecting to, in this case the POP
server! This particular crossdomain.xml file needs to permit access to use low/high
ports for inbound connections. It is identical to the process needed to support
XMLSocket servers.



The use of crossdomain policy files prevents Flash/Flex
clients from abusing other peoples servers. As permission is delegated to the
server owner, they can decide what ports Flash Player can connect to.



Example:



cross-domain-policy

 
allow-access-from domain=* to-ports=507 /

 
allow-access-from domain=*.foo.com to-ports=507,516
/

 
allow-access-from domain=*.bar.com to-ports=516-523
/

  allow-access-from
domain=www.foo.com to-ports=507,516-523 /

 
allow-access-from domain=www.bar.com to-ports=*
/

/cross-domain-policy





I put together this small site on crossdomain policy
files. It doesnt have any glits and gives you the bare bones knowledge
on using crossdomain.

[flexcoders] Re: add additional data to list-based drag and drop?

2006-08-25 Thread Michael Ritchie
I had a similar need using two datagrid components.  I wanted to drag

two.  I had to determine the names of each datagrid to allow/deny drag
and drop targets.  You can check out my example and source code here:

 mx:List id=personList dragEnabled=true /
 mx:List id=eventList dragEnabled=true /
 
 but when I drop items on my eventual drag and drop target, I'd like
 the target to know a little more, like which list it came from (or
 more loosely coupled, what type of data it is (person or event).  
 
 Is there a way to add a format to the list-based drag and drop

 Or is this the line I cross and have to move into the DragDropManager?

RE: [flexcoders] If statment runs before remote call returns data

2006-08-25 Thread Tracy Spratt












All data access operation in Flex are
asynchronous.



You can not access the result in the same
function that invokes the send/operation call.



You must use an event handler function run
by the result event, or use binding.

RE: [flexcoders] POP3 by Socket

2006-08-25 Thread Tracy Spratt












Ted, that is a handy site.



A suggestion:  An issue that is not
obvious to those who are not web/network administratiors is: Where do I
put the crossdomain.xml file.  While I bet this is discussed on more
than one of the links you provide, consider a quick paragraph on the subject,
for additional convenience.



The usual response: In the root of
the web server is not enough for non-experts.  Include an example path
for, say the default integrated Flex 1.5 install, one for a default Tomcat
install, and one for a default IIS install.



I figured mine out by putting a full
access crossdomain file in every possible folder until  my call worked, then
deleting them until I broke it again.  This showed me the right place.  You see
why I am not offering to provide the examples!

[flexcoders] UI Problem : HorizontalScrollPolicy and VerticalScrollPolicy

2006-08-25 Thread paromitadey
Hi All,

I am new to Flex and I need urgent help. I am trying to control the 
Horizontal and Vertical scroll policies of different layout controls 
(sav VBox, HBox etc.) using simple actionscript codes. 
Default I have the scroll policy 'off' but on certain condition (click 
of a button), I wish to switch the scroll policy on.
On doing so the screen displays an a rectangular area but not the 
scrollbar. But if I resize the window, the scrollbar appears. Is there 
an refresh issue?
What do I need to do to get the scrollbar directly on clicking and 
without having to resize the window.

Thanks and Regards,

Paromita

[flexcoders] ssh client using Flex 2/ActionScript 3

2006-08-25 Thread ajitparthan
The exmple of building a telnet client on livedocs using the socket
api is really cool. I was wondering if it is possible to build a ssh
client using similar techniques- the encryption and key exchange
algorithm seems fairly complicated.

This is within the context of a project I am doing where we would like
to have a telnet session to another machine within the Flex application.

The problem is when telnet is disabled and only ssh is enabled on the
remote machine.

Any ideas/suggestions?

RE: [flexcoders] FDMS: check, if an item exists on the client?

2006-08-25 Thread Seth Hodgson
Hi Dirk,

getItem() will always fetch the current state of the requested object from the 
server and update the local instance with the result if it exists. If you don't 
have auto sync enabled (server pushed updates) this is how you can periodically 
refresh your local instance.

If you call getItem() you'll already have a reference to the item so just hang 
onto that. If you've fill()'ed and you want to get a reference to an instance 
in your filled ArrayCollection take a look at the ICursor.findX() APIs.

Best,
Seth

Is there any way in FDMS to get an item without really going to the
server if it's on the client already? 

I found that calling dataService.getItem(uid) always goes to the server,
even if the item in question is available on the client. This is
unnecessary overhead IMHO if the item is available in the
DataStore/Collection. 

Do I have to implement my own lookup strategy here???

[flexcoders] Weird problem with my search.

2006-08-25 Thread Jeremy Rottman
In my application I have a setup a search screen. I was asked to add
in two more search parameters, House Number and Street. In all I have
3 search parameters, searchTerm, searchKey, and seachStatus.

The searchTerm, is the term they are trying to find, the key is the
parameter they are searching by (house number, street, file number
etc..) and the status is the status of the file (closed, pending,
active, etc..)

The problem I have having is this, if I search by house number or
street number, I get the error below. I have tested passing the same
data into my cfc with a test page, and it returns and works fine. But
once I do it in flex, I get an error. House Number and Street are the
only two searchKeys that I have problems with, all the other ones work
just fine. 

Can anyone see a reason below why this would happen

[flexcoders] i can not find flex 1.5 SDK

2006-08-25 Thread dan_marcu_eee
Hi, 
guys i really need the Flex 1.5 SDK and i can not find it anywhere.
Macromedia is gone, and adobe is really cold on this matter. Does
anyone of you have the Flex 1.5 SDK ? And if so can you send it over?
on email, or up it on an FTP or something? I hope you keep archives
and someone from this list will be able to help me. It is kind of an
emergency. Thanks a lot,

 Flex 1.5 didn't have an SDK to my knowledge.  The entire licensing
scheme of Flex has changed between versions.

[flexcoders] Re: Asynchronous TestCase.setUp in FlexUnit (and another use case)

2006-08-25 Thread kaleb_pederson
Thanks Matt!

Here's a real-world example of where the fixed ordering of the 
addAsync calls just bit me:

I'm testing what is essentially an HTTPService, that could throw a 
result or a fault.  I instinctively wrote the following:

public function testChangeUser():void {
  // cp is my service object that throws results and faults
  var tempfunc:Function = addAsync(handleChangeUserPart1,TIMEOUT);
  cp.faultCallback = addAsync(
handleUnexpectedFault,
TIMEOUT,
testChangeUserPart1,
onNotCalledIgnore);
  // NOTE: I had to use a temporary function because I don't expect
  // the fault handler to be called, but the error must be caught if
  // it is
  cp.addUser(userToBeAdded,tempfunc);
}

private function handleChangeUserPart1(data:ResultEvent):void {
  assertEquals(true,[EMAIL PROTECTED]);
  // ok, user has been added, verify that I can change the username
  var tempfunc:Function = addAsync(handleChangeUserPart2,TIMEOUT);
  cp.faultCallback = addAsync(
handleUnexpectedFault,
TIMEOUT,
testChangeUserPart2,
onNotCalledIgnore);
  cp.changeUserName(oldname,newname,tempfunc);
}

private function handleChangeUserPart2(data:ResultEvent):void {
  assertEquals(true,[EMAIL PROTECTED]);
}

private function handleUnexpectedFault(e:*,d:*=null):void 
{fail(blah);}
private function onNotCalledIgnore(d:*):void {}

The above seems pretty straightforward.  I add the user, when the 
response comes back and I confirm that the user was added, I change 
the username and then confirm that the username was changed.

However, it doesn't work like that.  Because I have a second call to 
addAsync() in testChangeUser, the Unit Test framework expects that 
the next async callback to come is my fault event, which is not the 
case -- my next event is the receipt of my call to change the 
username.  I don't care if it gets skipped nor do I want to require 
that it gets called.  Thus, my testcase errors out because of 
ordering.

I can't remove the call or reference to addAsync(myFaultCallback) 
because I need it to handle faults

I haven't been able to come up with a workaround for this case -- 
any suggestions?

Matt, I'll gladly try to help fix these issues, but I need a bit 
more direction on where to look (ok... I could figure it out, but 
I'm not that zealous nor do I have quite that much time ;).

BTW, I have wondered many times if FlexUnit would work better if the 
whole thing was structured on async events.  Of course, that would 
require a major re-work, but it seems a lot more natural given the 
number of async events that need to be dealt with in Flex

Thanks for the help everyone.

 Subject: [flexcoders] RE: Asynchronous TestCase.setUp in FlexUnit 
(and
 another use case)
 
  
 
 Matt and all,
 
 I took a quick stab at this as it didn't look too bad, but 
 unfortunately, it isn't quite that simple. FlexUnit is written 
such 
 that it expects a number of things to happen synchronously, which 
 causes some other problems in this case.
 
 Let me explain. After modifying TestCase::runMiddle() to wait for 
a 
 flag indicating that the testcase setup has completed, runMiddle 
 fires off a timer and waits for the flag to change. At this point, 
 runMiddle, as called by ProtectedMiddleTestCase::protect(), 
returns 
 and the next TestCase is fired off. In the end, this results in 
the 
 setup function being called many times before the test cases 
 actually fire off (as the test cases are now waiting for the flag 
to 
 change) and many test functions being called in parallel when the 
 flag changes.
 
 There are a couple of different ways that seem like obvious 
 solutions:
 
 1) Change the setup process so that it worked kind of like the 
async

 Other suggestions?
 
 Another sample use case:

I've been trying to figure out the same issue. The only thing I've been able to do that seems to work alright is use the IFRAME component to embed it as HTML, but that has a whole slew of issues in and of itself.

2006-08-25 Thread Battershall, Jeff
Dan,

Yes, there was a command line compiler that shipped with Flex - but if
you have a Flex 1.5 license, you should have it. Last time I checked,
you needed a Flex license to build/deploy in Flex 1.5. Thankfully the
entire business model has changed with Flex 2.  Upgrading AS2 code to
AS3 is not that difficult.  It might be a faster route just to figure it
out and do that instead, and as a bonus you get to leverage all the
advantages of Flex 2.

[flexcoders] Specifying LineSeries itemRenderer with Actionscript

2006-08-25 Thread j_sevlie
I have some LineSeries charts that are generated all through
ActionScript (because the number of lines I need is not know until
run-time).

--- CODE START ---
var seriesArray:Array = new Array();
var i:int;
var marketShareData:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection;

marketShareData = wsData.getMarketShare.lastResult;

for(i=0; imarketShareData.length; i++) {  
// Line for brand-specific data
var columnSeries:ColumnSeries = new ColumnSeries();
columnSeries.xField = fiscalyear;
columnSeries.yField = sharepercentage;
columnSeries.dataProvider = marketShareData.getItemAt(i);
columnSeries.displayName =
marketShareData.getItemAt(i).getItemAt(0).series; 
seriesArray.push(columnSeries);
}
columnchartMarketShare.dataProvider = marketShareData;
columnchartMarketShare.series = seriesArray;
--- CODE END ---

My question is: How in the world do I specify a custom itemRenderer
through Actionscript?  With MXML you can do it like this:

LineSeries yField=costs 
itemRenderer=mx.charts.renderers.DiamondItemRenderer/

But I'm not defining my LineSeries that way.  I saw the demo of the
charting stuff over at QuietlyScheming.com
(http://demo.quietlyscheming.com/ChartSampler/app.html) but he's also
defining the series at design-time.

Any thoughts?  

Thanks in advance for any help that somebody can provide.

Cheers,
Jacob

[flexcoders] SWFLoader doesn't work inside custom component

2006-08-25 Thread fernando_onelx
Hello guys,

I'm playing a little with the TileList.itemRenderer so i built a simpl
custom component but it doesn't seem to work.

Here's my component code:

package {

import mx.core.UIComponent;
import mx.controls.listClasses.BaseListData;
import mx.core.IDataRenderer;
import mx.controls.listClasses.IDropInListItemRenderer;
import mx.controls.listClasses.IListItemRenderer;
import mx.controls.SWFLoader;

public class Thumb extends UIComponent implements IDataRenderer,
IDropInListItemRenderer, IListItemRenderer {


// --- Properties --
private var img:SWFLoader;
private var pic:String;
private var _listData:BaseListData;

public function Thumb(){
super();
}

override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();

if(!img){
img = new SWFLoader();
img.move(24, 25);
addChild(img);
}
}

override protected function commitProperties():void {
super.commitProperties();
img.source = http://localhost/test.jpg;;
}

override protected function measure():void {
super.measure();
}

override protected function
updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number, unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
}

public function set data(obj:Object):void{

}

public function get data():Object{
return {};
}

public function set listData(value:BaseListData):void{
_listData = value;
invalidateProperties();
}

public function get listData():BaseListData{
return _listData;
}

}
}

It seems the image is loading but it's not been displayed. Has anyone
seen smth like this?

Thanks,
Fernando

I've been racking my brain trying to get icons in themenu bar. I think I'm doing exactly what the docs say but I cannot get any icon to render. Thelabel and actions work perfectly but the icondoes not show up. The icon is embedding properly as I can see it in the icon property of a button in the same file. I've also tried putting the path to the icon file in the xml, no joy.




My Menu XML Is:

menu

 menuitem label=File menuitem label=Open data="" / menuitem type=separator /
 menuitem label=Exit data="" icon=exitOn / /menuitem

/menu



MyMXML is:

mx:Script

![CDATA[[Embed(source=images/icons/iconExitOn.gif)] public static const exitOn:Class;


]]/mx:Script

mx:MenuBar id=menu width=100% x=0 y=0 height=27 dataProvider={menuXml} showRoot=false
cornerRadius=3 itemClick=menuHandler(event) labelField=@label iconField=@icon /

 I cannot find any samples anywhere with icons in the menu, Is this still supported? Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong? I am using Flex 
2.0 RTM

[flexcoders] Selecting a Leaf in a Tree

2006-08-25 Thread Ethan Miller
Greetings -

I have a tree whose dataProvider is some E4X XML. I'd simply like to  
programatically open the tree to and select a given leaf. Can't  
figure out however what property to set the xml reference to. I'd  
expected being able to do something like:

myTree.selectedItem = sandwich[1].condiments[3]

But I get back a null reference error.

Help?

cheers, ethan

[flexcoders] Component access to dynamic application variable

2006-08-25 Thread qnotemedia
I'm currently learning how to utilize components.

In a slideshow app, I have a thumbnail component (image) that is 
rendered by a TileList in the main application.  dataProvider in the 
TileList is being used to supply the path, image name, etc, by sending 
a repeating node of an xml file.  However, I'd like the thumbnail 
component to also be able to read a property of a selected parent 
node (via a ComboBox in the main application) of the data its receiving.

Can I make a bound variable in the main application dynmaically 
accessible by the component?

The xml is basically laid out as root(i.e. URL to root).album(i.e. 
folder name).image(i.e. filename), and any time I render an image, I'm 
recollecting the various nodes to produce an absolute URL to the image.

Hope that makes sense...still learning my Flex2 terminology.
 - Chris

[flexcoders] How can I tell an AreaChart data tip to display?

2006-08-25 Thread Mark
I'm creating an AreaChart and I want the DataTip to appear whenever
the mouse rolls over the Series.  I know that I can set
showDataTips=true on the Chart but the DataTip will only appear if the
mouse is directly over the data point.  I've extended AreaSeries and
captured the mouseOver and mouseOut.  I'm using findDataPoints to get
a reference to the HitData for the closest data point, but I need some
way to tell the DataTip for that data point to show/hide.

Does anybody know?

[flexcoders] Custom server validation

2006-08-25 Thread Mike Nimer


So I recently came upon an interesting situation. I needed to validate a form entry against data on the server. For example, I wanted to query the db to make sure the quantity that the user typed in was a validamount with the stock on hand. 

My initial thought was that I could just extend the Validator class (so I get all of the validation triggers)and write a flash remoting server side call to validate the data. However, that doesn't seem possible because the doValidation() method, where I would make my Flash Remoting call, has to returnan array of ResultEvents. Which means you can't wait for the result handler to determine if something is valid or invalid.

It seems like server side validation is a common enough thing. Has anyone else tried to do this? How did you get it to work?

thanks,
--nimer

2006-08-25 Thread Daniel Freiman



I haven't spent a lot of time on this, but my guess is that you're going to have to extend the combobox. From their you'll have access to textInput, which you can call getTextField() on, which returns a UITextField that has a maxChars Property.

Is there any way in FDMS to get an item without really going to theserver 
if it's on the client already? I found that calling 
dataService.getItem(uid) always goes to the server,even if the item in 
question is available on the client. This isunnecessary overhead IMHO if the 
item is available in theDataStore/Collection. Do I have to 
implement my own lookup strategy here???Thanks,Dirk.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex with Coldfusion Beginner

2006-08-25 Thread Mike Nimer


Check out the flex docs on the DataGrid.dataProvider property.

Basically you'll assign the result from CF to a variable and at the same time you'll bind the dataGrid to this variable. Flex will take care of the rest.

I'm sure someone already pointed this out, but network
latency is also a
factor. AMF is a compressed format, so it can load faster and in that sense
make your app more responsive. With XML web services, the tags themselves
add a degree of overhead. There are schemes for compressing web services
which can help.

 OK . . . . so the lag time is when the data gets back to the end-user?

Before in the flash world that was a big deal as XML processing was
expensive 
and often tedious to code whilst remoting was natively implemented and
provided 
you with typed business objects as a result of the call.

With Flex 2 the differences are not so important as the features like data 
binding and e4x pretty much level the playing field for the data formats.

 Bottom line . . . . with all things being equal . . . .
 
 Does a web service request take longer to process on the server than
 a AMF request?
 
 If the answer is . . . . in general yes, then that can be an issue with an
 increase in users.
 
 If the answer is . . . . it depends on the data being requested and/or the
 data format then that seems to suggest that everyone must run tests to 
 compare results and then test again based on scaling up.

I suppose one of the main factors would be the server code that handles the 
incoming request and then transforms the business data into the required
format 
to send back to the client.

That could be anything from some hand written php code to a commercial
remoting 
gateway.

Its so context dependent that its impossible to make a general statement of
the
type 'Remoting performs better than Web Services'

It would be interesting to see a comparison of the throughput you could
expect 
when comparing different solutions on the same server hardware, e.g. PHP 
Nu-Soap against AMFPHP.. Jrun's remoting vs. OpenAMF vs JAX-WS etc..

and where they each perform the same business operation and return the same
data..

but then there are other concerns such as memory usage and what else the
server 
is used for and how it performs for those use cases.

thats what i mean by you have to take it on a case by case basis.

RE: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] [flexcoders] Re: Choice of backend systems - which provides

2006-08-25 Thread Franck de Bruijn












An architect I closely work with always
says: ‘Each extra component introduces complexity’. I think that is true. Each
component ‘in the middle’ makes a system harder to understand, debug, maintain,
deploy and requires an additional level of competence. Unless it has true added
value, one should think very delicately if this extra component is really
necessary.



Actually, there is some contradiction in your
last paragraph. You admit that putting middleware in place needs thorough
testing (which costs money ... probably much more than the 20k you pay for FDS)
and is a ‘daunting task’ (which means that you are aware of the extra
complexity and the risks that it brings). You actually mention the exact
reasons why I would not like putting middleware in place for just one single
client.



Costs can only be discussed if the
business case is clear. In some cases (where millions are at stake) the
investment in FDS will be a no-brainer. In other cases where budget is limited then
the non-investment is a no-brainer as well. Therefore, I always keep aside from
the money discussions. You can’t tell.



I really wish that Adobe will make good money
from the Flash/Flex/FDS stack. They deserve it. They built a great product and
I am truly grateful for that. I am sure they put great thought in the pricing
scheme. Per case you will have to decide whether the business case allows for
the particular investments.

 One key enterprise objection to using AMF is the
lack of AMF clients for integration.

 Would non-flash clients for AMF and Messaging help?

I can understand why it would be difficult to shell out $20K per proc for
something that is solely for the Flash platform. That's almost as much as SQL
licenses. Not feasible where I work. If you have to use Flex Data Services to
realize the full benefits of Flex, that high cost can lead teams to shy away
from the Flash Platform because the remaining benefits may be less clear.

However, aside from the cost, I don't see why anyone would have a problem with
putting middleware in place for a specific client. Non-Flash clients can use
whatever other communications protocols you like, which are possibly already in
place. Granted, you've got to test things thoroughly to make sure your existing
environment is not affected by the installation of FDS (which can be a daunting
task).

Frank,

RPC IS LESS THAN 25% OF FLEX DATA SERVICES!!!

Flex Data Services is so much more that RPC. This entire discussion is really
FDS.RPC to WebServices. 

FDS contains 4 major parts:

1. Messaging - ASMessaging and JMSMessaging
2. Data Management - Data Synchronization and Distributed ArrayCollections
3. Web Tier Compiler - Compilation of AS/MXML on the server side.
4. RPC - Remoting and WebService Proxy

Using Web Services directly affects user experience!!! 
Using Web Services directly affects user experience!!! 
Using Web Services directly affects user experience!!! 

Web Services burns up player performance that you could be using to make the user
experience better. When working in Flash Player, everything affects
performance. If you abuse the player in one area, you limit what you can do
elsewhere before the player starts to slow down. The Flash Player (like all
software) is limited in capability; if you spend that capability doing hard
things (read Web Services) then you will not be able to do other things. On a
high quality machine, WS can take 400ms, but on a slower machine it can take
3-10 seconds for a single call and the larger the data exchanged, the worse it
gets. Not good.

With Flash Player it is important to keep things light and fast. Web Services
are abusive to the Flash Player runtime. Support is included for integration
purposes but it was really not designed as an optimized way to exchange data. 

Web Services view:

Flash Player Receives XML ASCII Text
XML Parsing → XML Parsing!!!
SOAP Parsing occurs to AS Objects → Traverse SOAP Objects Recursively!!!
Objects are passed into events

RemoteObject:
Flash Player Receives AMF Data
AMF Binary Decoding → Direct to typed objects.
Objects are passed into events

I am sure there are many smart people out there who will get WebServices to
work well for them with Flex. It is a lot of hard work to make this work well
and I have only seen one company do it really well. I do not doubt that others
will make this work reliably but I question its use. It will affect

At the risk of invoking wrath from the "web services vs

Ted, that is a handy site.

A suggestion: An issue that is not obvious to those who are not
web/network
administratiors is: Where do I put the crossdomain.xml
file. While I bet
this is discussed on more than one of the links you provide, consider a
quick paragraph on the subject, for additional convenience.

The usual response: In the root of the web server is not enough for
non-experts. Include an example path for, say the default integrated Flex
1.5 install, one for a default Tomcat install, and one for a default IIS
install.

I figured mine out by putting a full access crossdomain file in every
possible folder until my call worked, then deleting them until I broke it
again. This showed me the right place. You see why I am not

provide the examples!

Rogerio,

http://www.crossdomainxml.org

http://www.crossdomainxml.org

With Socket operations you will need to have a crossdomain.xml file on the
server you are connecting to, in this case the POP server! This particular
crossdomain.xml file needs to permit access to use low/high ports for
inbound connections. It is identical to the process needed to support
XMLSocket servers.

The use of crossdomain policy files prevents Flash/Flex clients from abusing
other peoples servers. As permission is delegated to the server owner, they
can decide what ports Flash Player can connect to.

Example:

cross-domain-policy
 allow-access-from domain=* to-ports=507
/
 allow-access-from domain=*.foo.com
to-ports=507,516 /
 allow-access-from domain=*.bar.com
to-ports=516-523 /
 allow-access-from domain=www.foo.com
to-ports=507,516-523 /
 allow-access-from domain=www.bar.com
to-ports=* /
/cross-domain-policy


I put together this small site on crossdomain policy files. It doesn't have
any glits and gives you the bare bones knowledge on using crossdomain.

Re: [flexcoders] Functionality Between Components and the Main Application

2006-08-25 Thread Johannes Nel



dispatch an event when a button gets clicked. let the container listen to it on the toolbar. On 8/23/06, Megan 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Hi! I've been trying to figure out how to do this sort of thing, and
thought I'd ask before messing with it anymore.I have a toolbar that's in its own component, and it has some buttonson it that will open new windows/popups. What I need to have happenis, when one of the buttons gets clicked, the window pops up inside a
container that's on the main application. Right now they show up atthe top corner of the toolbar.I gave the VBox in the middle of the main application an ID, but whenI try to tell the toolbar to open the window there, it gives me an
error because that ID doesn't exist inside the toolbar...I've also tried telling the button to run a function in the mainapplication to open the popup but it tells me that I'm calling apossibly undefined method through a reference with static type Class.
I hope that makes sense. Any ideas?Thank you!--Flexcoders Mailing ListFAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt
