[flexcoders] Problem with OC4J web services and Flex3 SOAPEncoder
Hello! I got a problem trying to execute a web service running in Oracle OC4j 10.1.3.3, and a client side with Flex3. I generated the scripts for using the web service using Flex builder 3, but it's not making a valid call to web service. I debugged the call operation to the Flex SOAPEncoder which seems to generate an invalid soap message. The SOAPEncoder generates the following message; SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ envelope/ xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; SOAP-ENV:Body tns:getDocuments xmlns:tns=http://modultek.atonpdm.document/; tns:getDocuments tns:String_1service manual/tns:String_1 /tns:getDocuments /tns:getDocuments /SOAP-ENV:Body /SOAP-ENV:Envelope Where the correct working soap message should be; SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ envelope/ xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; SOAP-ENV:Body tns:getDocuments xmlns:tns=http://modultek.atonpdm.document/; tns:String_1service manaual/tns:String_1 /tns:getDocuments /SOAP-ENV:Body /SOAP-ENV:Envelope Problem in the first message is that Flex SOAPEncoder generates an extra tns:getDocuments child tag, and Oracle app server can't handle it.

Hey guys!
I'm trying to drop some items (treeItems to be specific) in a Canvas,
but it seems the DRAG_ENTER event is not being dispatched, so the
listener in the Canvas can't accept the drag.
This is fixed when I set a color to the Canvas, but I need the Canvas
to be transparent ( at least to preserve its default color ).
Does anyone know why this happens?
Thanx,

[flexcoders] Re: Question regarding mx:List and itemRenderer
Thank you very much tracy, I have been reading about it and it is working perfectly now. Of course have to set up a few different tweaks ;) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tracy Spratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes. Google: Alex Harui itemRenderer recycle You will find a full explanation and lots of example code. Briefly: For performance reasons, the list-based conponents only renderer enough UI elements to display what is visible to the user , plus a few for buffering. Anytime you interact with the List (or DG), like scroll, or update the underlying data, Flex manipulates the underlying list and sends the changed dataProvider item object to the appropriate itemRenderer, which must use that data to change its appearance as needed. In this recycle process, the framework calls the itemRenderer's set data() function, passing in the new item object. This means your item renderer must override set data(o:Object), and then use that passed in data to set itself up. Best practice is to save the data in a var, then call invalidateProperties(). This makes the framework, at the correct, optimized time, call the item renderer's commitProperties() method. You should do the actual UI work in this function, using the data you saved in set data(); All this is in the interest of performance on large lists. See Alex's blog for all the details.

working example. So I guess I will pose the question here with a very very
simple example. Why is the following code wrong? The text displays but the
font size is not changing.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute
creationComplete=init()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.core.UITextFormat;
import mx.core.UITextField;
private function init():void {
var myText:UITextField = new UITextField;
var myFormat:UITextFormat = new
UITextFormat(this.systemManager);
myFormat.size = 30
myText.defaultTextFormat = myFormat
myText.validateNow();
myText.text = Hello Hello Hello!
addChild(myText);
}

no, all of the formatting is overridden.
Functionality for setting format based on style is in the
UITextField class,
I think the function is validateNow()
thanks dan, that pointed me to the right direction. I traced
validateNow() in UITextField where the format is set using styles -
overriding all of the formatting that might have been applied using
UITextFormat. I did toggle styleChangedFlag to false and voilà - all
the formatting using UITextFormat were applied. Now I have the choice
to extend UITextFormat and to override validateNow() or just use
Styles for all the formatting and forget about UITextFormat, which is
probably the recommended way - just getting started with flex you see.
thanks again, solved.

For future reference, I asked about font type because embeding fonts
incorrectly could account for the described behavior (as I originally
understood it), and the rendering engine for device fonts (in very
few and
specific cases) also has its own quirks.

[flexcoders] Using Embedded and System Fonts in same text field
Hi everyone, I'm having some trouble with embedded fonts. I have read
many many threads/posts about embedded fonts and haven't really
gotten anywhere so far.
No matter what I have tried I cannot seem to apply an embedded font
to a section of text and have a system font applied to another
section of text within the same text field. It almost seems as if you
are restricted to using either system fonts or embedded fonts in the
same text field.
Iv'e got a sample application below which allows me to apply multiple
fonts to different selections with a text field - however when I pick
one of my embedded fonts, a default system font is used in its place:
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute
creationComplete=creationComplete(event)
mx:Style source=.\stylesheets\primary.css/
mx:VBox id=vb
mx:Label text=My Title fontFamily=AdLib RM/
mx:TextArea id=textArea fontSize=26 width=200 height=50/
mx:ComboBox id=fontComboBox dataProvider={fontFamilyArray}
labelField=fontName change=fontComboBox_change(event)/
/mx:VBox
mx:Script
![CDATA[
use namespace mx_internal;
[Bindable] private var fontFamilyArray:Array;
private function creationComplete(event:Event):void
{
fontFamilyArray = Font.enumerateFonts(true);
fontFamilyArray.sortOn(fontName, Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);
}
private function fontComboBox_change(event:Event):void
{
var tf:TextFormat = textArea.getTextField().getTextFormat();
var beginIndex:int = textArea.getTextField
().selectionBeginIndex;
var endIndex:int = textArea.getTextField().selectionEndIndex;
tf.font = fontComboBox.selectedLabel;
textArea.getTextField().setTextFormat(tf, beginIndex,
endIndex);
textArea.invalidateDisplayList();
textArea.validateDisplayList();
}
]]
/mx:Script
/mx:Application
I know the font has been embedded correctly because the label control
has the correct font applied to it.
If I initialise the font property on the text area to my embedded
font (fontFamily=AdLib RM) then when I start typing into the text
area the font is correct - and I can select any of the other embedded
fonts and they work fine. But selecting a system font for part of the
text now causes the text to become hidden.
Any advice would be grately appreciated.
Cheers,
Andy.

I'm 99.9% sure that what you're attempting can't be done. The livedocs for
TextField says that TextField has a flag (embedFonts) that indicates whether
embeded or device fonts are used, so it's hard to see how both could ever be

[flexcoders] Runtime CSS Switching at App Startup
I have an application that needs to be styled based on a URL variable. I'm having trouble applying the style BEFORE the application starts displaying controls. When the app loads, a login Panel is displayed in the default look and feel (gray) until the StyleManager runs as part of an init method called from the creationComplete method. So basically, the default style is initially shown for a split second and then it switches to the correct style. How can I force the style to load before the UI is displayed? I've tried calling the StyleManager in preinitialize functions, but that isn't working. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! MC
[flexcoders] Adding Shape Objects to Canvas control
Hello All, I am trying to add my custom shape objects (which create several different shape types), to a different type of container, and I am having some difficulties. From my experience, you can directly add a Shape (flash.display.shape) as children to UIComponents, but you cannot add them to a Canvas Control. When I try to add a Shape to Canvas controls, Flex tries to cast the Object as a UIComponent. My question is, how can I convert my custom shape objects, so that they can be added to Canvas controls? Do I need to wrap my objects into a different type of component (UIComponent). The reason I like Shapes, is because they are so lightweight - but if there is a better way, I'd be very interested in hearing about it. Thank you in advance for all your help on this. Mike

Re: [flexcoders] Drop anywhere to remove
that's what I was afraid of - anyone know of any other ways around it? You'll have to create a new DragProxy class to change this behavior. To do this, you'll need to monkey patch (google it, you'll find it) the framework's DragProxy class. Once you do that, you can change the logic it uses for allowing a drop, or simply insert your remove code directly. Another option is to simply do the checking in addition to the work the DragManager does. So, when you start the drag operation, start listening on the stage (or SystemManager) for the mouse up event. When the mouse up event occurs, look at the currentTarget or target (or do a hitTest) to figure out where the mouse up occurred. If its in a trash it section of the screen, do the delete. You can also listen for mouse move and update the drag proxy cursor as it goes performing the same tests. Its the beauty of the event system, and the fact that (as far as I can remember) the DragProxy class isn't consuming the mouse events. Troy.

[flexcoders] Re: HttpService post error 2032:iostream error
I believe I've run into the same problem. I haven't checked the length of the POST data, but I'll bet it's over 1022 bytes. This is under Windows XP, Internet Explorer, and the latest Flash (9,0,115,0). I'm seeing the same behavior with Opera under Windows. Firefox is fine, Apple Safari (under Windows) is fine too. Firefox under Linux is fine. The data gets to the server okay. It seems that the problem is related to the Flash ActiveX wrapper. I'm communicating with Amazon S3, so I don't have a lot of control over the settings. If I got more information with the error, I could ignore it. But all I get is 2032 Stream Error. Very frustrating and scary for my customers (over 50% of which use IE). I haven't tried WireShark under Windows, but I'm afraid I just don't have much control over what Amazon S3 responds with.

[flexcoders] Re: HttpService post error 2032:iostream error
I checked the packets with Charles (www.xk72.com/charles) under Windows. The request body is over 1KB. The response packet just says 204 No Content. There is no body. Obviously, the ActiveX wrapper is taking this to mean that something went wrong. Again, since I have no information other than Error 2032, I don't see how I can safely ignore these errors.

Re: [flexcoders] AIR SQL - Datatype issues
Hey Kevin,
Heres an example of some sql text on a SQLStatement that I use in an AIR
app I'm building. I use a dateformatter for the actual date output i.e
'2008-04-06' and if I need the time component, I just build up and
replace the end of the text with my vars, its not pretty but it works
fine. The thing to watch out for is that AS regards 12am as 24 rather
than 00. Hope that helps..
Cheers

[flexcoders] Example of connecting to Microsoft Olap server
Hi all, I have found posts stating that Flex can connect to an Olap server. I have found examples of Flex connecting to Xml data for Olap. What I am looking for is Flex connecting to Olap directly using msmdpump.dll I'd like to see what it can do. Do I specify what dimensions, members, filters etc there are, it gets the data and displays it, do I just give it the connection and the user can pick those things are does it do both? If anyone can shed any more light on connecting to msmdpump.dll it would be much appreciated as i'm completely stumped. Kind regards, Phil Jeary

[flexcoders] Local file access
One of the noticeable differences between Silverlight and Flash is the way they handle local file access. In Flash we have to upload a file to the server before we can gain access to the file's contents. In Silverlight you get access to the file as soon as it is selected by the user. My question is if anyone knows if the way Flash does it is because of security concerns (meaning Silverlight might have to change), or not (meaning Flash 'could' change)? I have to say that I really like the way Silverlight handles it as there is no round-trip delay before a user can start using the file in your RIA. *Steve Mathews* *Senior Software Engineer* e [EMAIL PROTECTED] *Flypaper Studio, Inc.* 2999 North 44th Street, Suite 200 Phoenix, AZ 85018 www.flypaper.net

Most of the time, folks just need to pick out one field from the data object, often the same as the label. Leaving dataTipFunction as null and setting dataField works for those situations.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: How can I clear an ArrayCollection or Datagrid
I ran a simple test of DataGrid binding to arraycollection. If I set an empty array collection, the DataGrid resets properly. If the HTTPService returns an empty ArrayCollection I would expect the DG to also reset, but I don't have time to test that out. If it returns null, I'm not sure what it will generate, but again, if you detect that it returns null and set the array collection to an empty array collection it should reset the DG.

[flexcoders] Blazeds sqladmin processing resultSet List data
I'm trying to get ArrayCollection mapped to an array using the Blazeds turnkey
sample
code. In the sqladmin example, they are creating a List object in the Java
code by
executing the SQL query and storing it like this:
// relevant code...
while (rs.next()) {
row=new HashMap();
for (int i = 1; i = colCount; i++) {
row.put(rsmd.getColumnName(i), rs.getString(i));
}
list.add(row);
}
}
Then they put this result in a dataGrid:
mx:DataGrid id=dg dataProvider={resultSet} width=100% height=100%/
and the following method.
private function resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{
resultSet = ArrayCollection(event.result);
}
I'd like to display the same data in a chart, but I don't know how to do this.
What I'd like
to do is something like this:
//pseudo code
Horizontal Axis (x) = Data from Column 1
Vertical Axis (y) = Data from Column 2
..or something like that. Anyone know what class the HashMap/List is sending
back so
that I can convert the info into Dates or numbers or somethow get it to show up
on the
chart?
I was trying something like this, but it doesn't work:
var axisArray:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection;
for each (var obj:Object in resultSet) {
var f:Number = new Number(obj);
result.addItem(f);
}
// axis data provider = axisArray

[flexcoders] Re: How can I clear an ArrayCollection or Datagrid
removeAll() should do exactly what you are looking for, but only if your dataGrid's dataprovider is bound to the arrayCollection. If your dataGrid is not bound to the arrayCollection, the dataGrid will not change as data in the arrayCollection changes (unless you have accounted for this programatically elsewhere). If you do not want to use binding, the easiest thing would be to add a collection_change eventListener on the arrayCollection so you can clear out or update the dataGrid as the arrayCollection data changes. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tracy Spratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have used AC API method removeAll() to clear an AC, and it properly updates the UI.

RE: [flexcoders] AIR SQL - Datatype issues
Hey Muzak,
I've actually tried a few of those from references at SQLite websites but to
no avail. I think it has something to do with the way the DB is handling
data typing as I've heard that SQLite will actually allow unique datatypes
to each cell instead of column.
Thanks a lot for the examples... hopefully something clicks.
Cheers,

[flexcoders] Re: HttpService post error 2032:iostream error
OK, guys, I'll try to summarise my painful experience with HTTPService.
Things which could go wrong:
- HTTPService settings, i.e. type of the parameters object. You should
check that if you send XML, the type of the object is XML and
content-type is application/xml
- I had a lot of mysterious problems with #2032 error, so I ended up
with a solution to create HTTPService object, send data and then
disconnect() it and kill (assign a null). As soon as the FlashPlayer
code is closed unfortunately we have no idea how it works with sockets
and what are the real error codes we get.
-requests could be cached by the browser/server, to prevent this it is
a good idea always add some random number parameter to the request URL
(someURL?nocache=xyz)
-server side (PHP)
magic sequence to prevent caching
header('Pragma: bogus');
header('Cache-control: bogus');
similar things should be done for other servers, check Judah's blog:
http://www.judahfrangipane.com/blog/?p=87
header('Expires: 0') - causes a lot of #2032's
- error #2032 could be produced in certain cases when server replies
with unexpected response. Usually we see #1090 - XML parser error, but
sometimes, #2032 is thrown. I happens when server replies with
anythinh else rather then 200 code and also some problems with PHP -
it is always wise to check server logs for any errors.
-combination Apache2 + SSL + Gentoo + HTTPService does not work. This
is just a matter of fact. I didn't have time nor resources to
investigate it further, but FreeBSD + Apache1 + SSL + HTPPService
works seamlessly. I suspect that Apache2+SSL + FlashPlayer have some
problem with packet resends during the error recovery - this is the
only result I've got looking through megs of Wireshark logfiles.
The result of this combination was #2032 error due to the timeouts in
the network - if SSL connection is dropped there was a little chance
that it will be renegotiated again.
PS I have not dealt with Charles, but I highly recommend Wireshark -
this thing sits at the lowest level and allows you to see the raw
network packets. And it is free.
Cheers,
Dmitri.
RE: [flexcoders] Re: How can I clear an ArrayCollection or Datagrid
Well, it worked for me in a simple test. I'd be interested in your scenario to see why it was different.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: How can I clear an ArrayCollection or Datagrid
If you've assigned an arraycollection (as opposed to an array) to the DataGrid but are not using binding, the DataGrid will refresh when you call removeAll(). Whether you use binding or not, once the DG has a reference to an arraycollection instance and you change that instance, the datagrid will notice.

[flexcoders] Flex 3 GA Designer doesn't work with my modules
In Flex 3 Beta I had no issues doing this, in Flex 3 GA it does not work and I'm wondering if any of you have seen this issue. I have extended Module to MyModule and added code that I need. My Flex builder is setup into three projects. AppProject, ModuleProject, and FrameworkProject. My Framework is compiled to my.swc and is in the lib folder of both ModuleProject and AppProject. Both have the swc correctly setup in the project properties. When I open one of my Modules in code view it works great. But when I go over to design view I get an error message in the middle of the design view with the the text An unknown item is declared as teh root of your MXML document. Switch to source mode to correct it. In the Problems view it shows a warning: Design mode: Cannot load my.swc (reason: ERROR: Load Verify). It may require classes (such as Adobe AIR components) that are not supported by design mode. Check the Eclipse error log for more details. This used to come up just fine in design view with Flex 3 beta. If I remove my.swc from my ModuleProject and instead add a new source file that points to the src folder of my FrameworkProject it works. But I don't want this as it causes compiles to be much longer and it is not the way I need it to work since our customers will be able to build their own Modules based off of our Framework and I don't want to give them anything more than a swc. Any suggestions? Thanks, Dale

[flexcoders] Re: HttpService post error 2032:iostream error
Thank you for your reply. I've done a lot of research on this problem.
None of the usual causes/solutions to 2032 errors appear to apply.
This is an HTTP POST without using SSL. It's not a caching problem.
Caching is an issue with GET commands, I know that the request really
goes out, and the body changes with every post. I know that the content
type is fine.
Clearly, it's the 204 No Content return status that is messing things
up. Unless I can get Amazon to return something different, I'm stuck. In
the meantime, I see no choice but to silently throw away these errors.
Horrible, I know, but I have no choice.
I've used WireShark under Linux. Charles has a nicer interface and gives
the same information that I'm looking for.

- HTTPService settings, i.e. type of the parameters object. You should
check that if you send XML, the type of the object is XML and
content-type is application/xml
- I had a lot of mysterious problems with #2032 error, so I ended up
with a solution to create HTTPService object, send data and then
disconnect() it and kill (assign a null). As soon as the FlashPlayer
code is closed unfortunately we have no idea how it works with sockets
and what are the real error codes we get.
-requests could be cached by the browser/server, to prevent this it is
a good idea always add some random number parameter to the request URL
(someURL?nocache=xyz)
-server side (PHP)
magic sequence to prevent caching
header('Pragma: bogus');
header('Cache-control: bogus');
similar things should be done for other servers, check Judah's blog:
http://www.judahfrangipane.com/blog/?p=87
header('Expires: 0') - causes a lot of #2032's
- error #2032 could be produced in certain cases when server replies
with unexpected response. Usually we see #1090 - XML parser error, but
sometimes, #2032 is thrown. I happens when server replies with
anythinh else rather then 200 code and also some problems with PHP -
it is always wise to check server logs for any errors.
-combination Apache2 + SSL + Gentoo + HTTPService does not work. This
is just a matter of fact. I didn't have time nor resources to
investigate it further, but FreeBSD + Apache1 + SSL + HTPPService
works seamlessly. I suspect that Apache2+SSL + FlashPlayer have some
problem with packet resends during the error recovery - this is the
only result I've got looking through megs of Wireshark logfiles.
The result of this combination was #2032 error due to the timeouts in
the network - if SSL connection is dropped there was a little chance
that it will be renegotiated again.
PS I have not dealt with Charles, but I highly recommend Wireshark -
this thing sits at the lowest level and allows you to see the raw
network packets. And it is free.
Cheers,
Dmitri.

Re: [flexcoders] Runtime CSS Switching at App Startup
Marrittw For your solution I guess you could call applicationComplete Handler. And works most of time. For your function unload the default and than load yours. Regards Igor Costa On 4/7/08, merrittwchapman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have an application that needs to be styled based on a URL variable. I'm having trouble applying the style BEFORE the application starts displaying controls. When the app loads, a login Panel is displayed in the default look and feel (gray) until the StyleManager runs as part of an init method called from the creationComplete method. So basically, the default style is initially shown for a split second and then it switches to the correct style. How can I force the style to load before the UI is displayed? I've tried calling the StyleManager in preinitialize functions, but that isn't working. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! MC -- Igor Costa www.igorcosta.com www.igorcosta.org
Re: [flexcoders] AIR SQL - Datatype issues
I'm working on an (AIR) SQLite Admin tool, and the examples are what I use (in
the app) so they do work.
The DB's used however are created with the app itself, so maybe that has
something to do with it.
If you're interested in trying the app (still a work in progress) shoot me a

Hey Muzak,
I've actually tried a few of those from references at SQLite websites but to
no avail. I think it has something to do with the way the DB is handling
data typing as I've heard that SQLite will actually allow unique datatypes
to each cell instead of column.
Thanks a lot for the examples... hopefully something clicks.

Hey guys,
so I have created a simple flex proj
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; layout=absolute
themeColor=#0EFF02
mx:Script
![CDATA[
private function onOver(evt:Event):void{
trace(onOver : +evt.currentTarget );
test.setStyle(backgroundColor,0xff00ff);
}
private function onOut(evt:Event):void{
trace(onOut : +evt.currentTarget );
test.setStyle(backgroundColor,0x00);
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Canvas id=test x=118 y=136 width=443 height=133
themeColor=#099FFF backgroundColor=#D7 rollOver=onOver(event);
rollOut=onOut(event);
mx:Button x=39 y=35 label=Button/
/mx:Canvas
/mx:Application
So basically all the code above does is changes the backgroundColor of the
Canvas. It works fine
Now if I make a MXML Component using the Code Behind Method
*
*mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; layout=absolute
themeColor=#0EFF02 xmlns:ns1=item.*
ns1:ListItem x=80 y=48/
/mx:Application
*ListItem.mxml*
item:CListItem xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=400
height=300 xmlns:item=item.*
mx:Button x=65 y=61 label=Button/
/item:CListItem
*
CListItem.as*
package item
{
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import mx.containers.Canvas;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
public class CListItem extends Canvas
{
public function CListItem()
{
super();
this.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE,
onComponentLoaded);
}
private function onMouseOver(evt:MouseEvent):void{
trace(CListItem.onMouseOver :);
this.setStyle(backgroundColor,0xff00ff);
}
private function onMouseOut(evt:MouseEvent):void{
trace(CListItem.onMouseOut);
this.setStyle(backgroundColor,0x00);
}
private function onComponentLoaded(evt:FlexEvent):void{
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,
onMouseOver);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,
onMouseOut);
}
}
}
Now when I mouse over the Button component the onMouseOut function gets
called and there is a flicker in the backgroundColor.
If I dont use the Code Behind Method then the onMouseOut function does not
get called when I rollOver the button.
Can anyone explain this strange behavior?
Thanks
Cheers

[flexcoders] Re: AMF development with remote dev server
Yes, either one of the approach is valid. I do prefer to have config files in place as it results in fewer lines of code. You do not have to put the config files into src, just somewhere on the computer. When you reference services-config.xml in the -services compiler argument, make sure to use absolute path to the file.
