[flexcoders] Air 2.7 TLS version?

2011-08-25 Thread DustinB
Hello-

I am trying to find information about which TLS version Flex 2.7 supports. It 
seems like its only 1.0 and the client is looking to use 1.2.

Anyone know?

thanks!

 says
 
  You use the mx:HTTPService tag to represent an HTTPService object in an
 MXML file. When you call the HTTPService object's send() method, it makes an
 HTTP request to the specified URL, and an HTTP response is returned.
 Optionally, you can pass parameters to the specified URL. When you do not go
 through the server-based proxy service, you can use only HTTP GET or POST
 methods. However, when you set the useProxy property to true and you use the
 server-based proxy service, you can also use the HTTP HEAD, OPTIONS, TRACE,
 and DELETE methods.
 
  In general, unless you can get somewhere some server/proxy control, I
 have found Flex not very useful to talk to a REST like service. Some people
 have reported success by using http://code.google.com/p/as3httpclientlib/iso 
 the Flex provided stuff. Personally I have not tried that. As far as I
 remember it gets tricky as you cannot typically reuse browser managed http
 resources (cookies, cache, ...).
 
  As it might be of interest to you as well.besides the limited HTTP
 verb support I have lost numerous hours getting HTTP headers across. That is
 also a non trivial endeavor.
 
  What eventually worked out best in my case is to just bite the bullet ,
 shove a proxy in between, and use GET and POST to communicate tunneled
 real HTTP requests, that are then transformed and forwarded. That is still
 not perfect if you care about caching and have a need for custom headers,
 but at least most of it is working.
 
  I have always found it a bit ironic that a platform that started it's
 life as a toolset to develop Rich Internet Applications has such limited
 support for the internet standard as old as HTTP.

Let me elaborate (sorry I was trying to keep the question short and sweet). In

This is pretty much how Flex works and has been documented.

[flexcoders] Best Practice for Subclassed UIComponent and DataProvider

2011-08-25 Thread hanzo55
I am working with a project already in place. It uses Cairngorm and is
built on Flex 3.0.2.2113
A standard ComboBox is implemented in one of the views like so:
mx:ComboBox dataProvider={model.facilities} id=Facility
model is a bindable singleton, and one of its properties, facilities
is a public ArrayCollection. On initialization, a function runs in the
singleton to populate facilities; it does this by pointing
model.facilities to another ArrayCollection that has been previously
populated, such as:
model.facilities = model.assigned_facilities;
This works without issue; when the application starts, the ComboBox is
properly populated with the values pointed to by model.facilities.
I have decided to come in and build a subclass of ComboBox in
ActionScript, and rather than pass the dataProvider in, I want to
include the singleton within the ActionScript, and simply do the same
assignment in the constructor. The resulting MXML would look like this:
components:FacilityComboBox id=Facility  /
and the constructor would look like this:
public function FacilityComboBox(){ super();   
BindingUtils.bindProperty(this, dataProvider, model, facilities);}
My question is: Is this the best practice when subclassing a UIComponent
and wanting to handle the dataProvider assignment internally? The reason
I ask is, I had originally built the constructor like this:
public function FacilityComboBox(){ super();this.dataProperty =
model.facilities;}
which worked for other subclassed ComboBoxes where the dataProvider *did
not change after initialization*. However, because of how
model.facilities is assigned (to an existing ArrayCollection), no change
was ever detected, and upon launch the application, the ComboBox sat
dormant and never received any values to populate. Changing to the
BindingUtils method solved this problem, but I now fear I'm missing a
much broader concept about dataProvider assignment in pure ActionScript
classes. Is my BindingUtils methodology the one to go with? Or should I
be considering something drastically different?

I have no idea of what you just said.

 

I'm converting my one and only Flex app to 4 in the hopes that
management will see an advantage to using that.  Once (and if) it gets
to 4, I'm going to try to get 4.5 so I can make it into an app (my
distant dream).  Doing things in net is OK, but I'd rather stick with
Flex if I can.

 

I'm just dying on the completely different product from 3 and don't have
anywhere to turn but here.  Even simple things like I can't see in
design view half the application or you have to jump through hoops to
get a scroll bar to appear.  I think our contract with Adobe only has
support for LiveCycle.  So it's hit or miss on forums.

 

You probably hear that a lot and I appreciate the time you do spend
helping those of us that are lost at sea.

You can always use an image/BitmapImage as one of the children/elements

If you can do that, you might as well add it to the skin.

Binding a visual component to a singleton limits its reuse.  So there may not

Venkat:

 

Yes. of course this can be done.  The next question is how. and what is the
best way to do it.

 

From another point of view. A could be thought of as an array. an object
different from an Array Collection.

 

Likewise, B could be thought of as another array.

 

C then would be an Array Collection.

 

The best treatment of this subject that I have seen can be found in the
recent book. Effortless Flex 4 Development by the outstanding author Larry
Ullman.

 

Although the book is based on PHP, as a ColdFusion guy, I have found the
book to be very helpful.

 

I have something like this in ColdFusion. two CFCs. a method CFC and a data
structure CFC. that talk to each other and a Flex app. that have the added
benefit of working ok with the Flex Data/Services wizard.

Also I have an arraycollection B populated with values
{one,two,three,four,five,six,seven,eight,nine,ten}

 

Given this data, How do I present this in a datagrid? Can I map at a column
level to an array collection? 

(Or)

Can we make an arraycollection C, that has the values of arraycollection A
and arraycollection B paired up and then just bind to datagrid. If so,
please help me how to fabricate arraycollection C.

   (Or)

Any other ideas, please comment.

 

Thanks in advance.

 


Best Regards,

Venkat.

 

 





Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex 4 CSS

2011-08-25 Thread Alex Harui
FlexExamples.com might have some examples.  Flex 4 is pretty different 
especially around skinning and styles.  It was deemed the right thing to do to 
enable designers to control every pixel without having to learn code.

There are plenty of folks on this forum who are willing to help.

Alex,

I have no idea of what you just said.

I’m converting my one and only Flex app to 4 in the hopes that management will 
see an advantage to using that.  Once (and if) it gets to 4, I’m going to try 
to get 4.5 so I can make it into an app (my distant dream).  Doing things in 
net is OK, but I’d rather stick with Flex if I can.

I’m just dying on the completely different product from 3 and don’t have 
anywhere to turn but here.  Even simple things like I can’t see in design view 
half the application or you have to jump through hoops to get a scroll bar to 
appear.  I think our contract with Adobe only has support for LiveCycle.  So 
it’s hit or miss on forums.

You probably hear that a lot and I appreciate the time you do spend helping 
those of us that are lost at sea.

Jerry

You can always use an image/BitmapImage as one of the children/elements of a 
container.  Doing so affects value of numChildren/numElements and potentially 
other things in case it matters, and limits re-usability.  If you can do that, 
you might as well add it to the skin.

Thanks.  Now I know.

I still need the effect, so can I put an image out there and write over it 
(z-order)?  There would be two lines of text over the image.

Jerry, the spark theme doesn’t support backgroundImage.  Every capability has a 
cost, and we chose not to make the container backgrounds as heavy as the Halo 
theme.  It doesn’t matter how many lines of code are in the skin if it doesn’t 
include the logic to load and position images.

Re:[flexcoders] Re: remoting problem

2011-08-25 Thread j2me_soul
I try to use strongly type to cast my varaible.
But I don't have this type of the varaible in the top application.
I use them in the itemrenderer.

 eztDoctor = data as EztDoctor;

if( eztDoctor != null ){// here is always null 
 docName = eztDoctor.DName;
 price = eztDoctor.DFee.toString();
 docTitle = eztDoctor.DTitle;
 docIcon.source = eztDoctor.pic;
}
 
 
package com.frameworks.mvc.model.VO.remoting

 [Bindable]
 [RemoteClass(alias=com.ezt.server.pojo.EztDoctor)]
 public class EztDoctor{
  public var sex:String;
  public var DLevel:Number;

That does not look like a Flex class. Is it PureMVC?

I would try what it tells you to do. ie. Define a variable of that type in the 
top level application.

 How to solve this ?

Hi Alex,

So I understand that bind array collection A to the data grid as data provider. 
and then bind array collection B to the label function of DatagridColoum.

I tried out its not working. Please Assist!

You can just use A and use a second column with a label function that 
references B

Re: [flexcoders] Adding up Arraycollections to Datagrid!

2011-08-25 Thread Venkat M
Hi Bill,

I understood that make array collection A as an array ( I will just use to 
array(), and it will be done).
Similarly I will do for array collection B.

But how to add them in a pair order in to array collection C. Please Assist!

Would be great if u have an example or a pseudo snippet!! Thanks!!

Venkat:
 
Yes… of course this can be done.  The next question is how… and what is the 
best way to do it.
 
From another point of view… “A” could be thought of as an array… an object 
different from an Array Collection.
 
Likewise, “B” could be thought of as another array.
 
“C” then would be an Array Collection.
 
The best treatment of this subject that I have seen can be found in the recent 
book… “Effortless Flex 4 Development” by the outstanding author Larry Ullman.
 
Although the book is based on PHP, as a ColdFusion guy, I have found the book 
to be very helpful.
 
I have something like this in ColdFusion… two CFCs… a method CFC and a data 
structure CFC… that talk to each other and a Flex app… that have the added 
benefit of working ok with the Flex Data/Services wizard.
