Looking at the Scrawl source, you just need to drop the CSS and the component

[flexcoders] Re: parent-child hierarchy of data using Flex, FDS and Hibernate

PW,

I did the work to understand log4j and you're right, it is amazingly
powerful.  I added a new appender to my configuration in log4j.xml

was being deprecated.  However, this has not worked, so I'm going to
try your method from the other post.

  All-in-all a very worthwhile exercise and my dev environment is now

 Good to hear. was just replying to your previous post in this thread,
 and now I see you got it figured out. Excellent.
 
  
  I still can't figure out how to turn on debug logging in Hibernate,
 
 See this other post where I figured out how to turn on the Hibernate
 logging. If you don't know about log4j, I suggest doing a few searches
 on it, and reading up about the log4j.properties file. It's a very
 powerful tool, and Hibernate has a TON of good logging, but its easy
 to get lost in it all if you just turn everything on to debug...
 
 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/59623
 
 Hibernate has a sample log4j.properties in the Hibernate/etc directory
 
 
 
  The exception is thrown way down in the bowels of the Hibernate
  session.save() method which is being called by
  HibernateAssembler.createItem.  From Jeff's last post he seemed to be
  suggesting that updateItem was in some way at fault.  I'm not quite
  seeing how that relates to my problem, although I am clearly no
expert.
  
 
 I'm not exactly sure how the problem would occur from createItem(),
 but take a look at my post here I mention what was causing it for me
 (was a lazy=false setting on the collection association of the object
 being updated)
 
 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/63471
 
 The issue with the NOT NULL column was that once I had everything
 working the behavior it was doing was to null out all the FK values
 for the association, thereby dis-associating the children from the
 parent, then updating all the entries in the collection to point back
 to the parent. Once I made the association nullable, the update
 started working. (at least as far as FDS was concerned.
 
 
  
  Jeff, if you have a new version of the Assembler code and want a
  guinea-pig, send it my way.
  
 
 Likewise!

[flexcoders] setCredentials, amfphp 1.9 question

2007-02-23 Thread Kun Janos

Hi all

Patrick Mineault wrote in his blog at http://www.5etdemi.com/ that
starting with amfphp 1.9 the method table is removed.
How does the setCredentials work now? In amfphp 1.2 we had to put
roles in the method table and write the _authorize function in the
service.
Does anybody know how can we use the setCredentials with Flex and
amfphp 1.9 beta 2? I'm interested in some example code for flex and
amfhp also.

[flexcoders] Zooming out of a list ?!

2007-02-23 Thread jamiebadman

Hi,

I've been exploring the wonderful world of effects and transitions 
recently... there's something I would *love* to be able to do - but 
I suspect this is not possible. Could someone confirm or deny 
accordingly ?!

Here's the idea...

I have a horizontal list which consists of a set of charts. This 
list is quite small - acting really, like a row of thumbnails for 
the charts.

If the user clicks on a chart, it appears in a nice big readable 
size in a popup window.

Now... what I'd like to do is apply a 'zoom' style transition from 
the clicked list element to the popup window so that the popup 
appears to zoom out of the list itself.

Actually, as I write this, a *possible* solution has occurred to 
me...

(1) The user clicks on an element on the list
(2) This causes a totall borderless popup window to be created, 
exactly over the chart in the list that the user clicked on. This 
would appear 'invisble' to the user since visually it should look 
the same.
(3) A sequence (consisting of a zoom effect and move) is applied to 
the popup to expand it and bring it into the centre of the screen.

If this is possible, I *think* it would look ok ?

Question then is, how to achieve (2)...

Or am I barking up the wrong tree ?!

Jamie.

[flexcoders] Re: FDS/Hibernate Sample of updating hierarchical list of values

PW and Jeff,

PW, you and I seem to be in the same boat.  I am trying to fight off
the people who were flex skeptics to start with.  Not being able to
write data back makes the whole thing look pretty amateur and confirms
people's belief that the technology isn't ready - which given this
experience it clearly isn't.  The baby is definitely at risk of being
thrown out with the bath water.  It stands in our company simply
because I have the final call as Technical Director (CTO if you are in
the US).

I am a huge flex advocate and really doing my best to evangelise on
the topic.  What's more I think that the bridge to operational data is
the most profound leap forward for flash, it takes it out of the world
of gimicks and into the world of real business applications.  

Jeff, you and your and team deserve huge credit for that vision and
excellent execution.

However, much as it pains me to say it, the bottom line is that the
hibernate middle tier provided does not work, as PW and I (and a host
of other people on various forums) have found.  I know that I can
re-write the whole thing myself and will probably have to, but when
introducing new technologies it is unfortunately all about initial
perception.  

I have made a career of doing this sort of thing myself and I have
seen excellent projects fail to fly because of low initial quality,
even though we fixed them immediately, the damage was done because
people's impression was that they were flaky.  I'm sure you know it is
hard to get back from that first impression and the word of mouth that
springs from it.  Once it becomes entrenched that opinion becomes fact
and you are irrevocably lost.  If I were Adobe I would be a little
worried about the tone of the posts I am seeing about integration with
Hibernate.

The Hibernate Assembler is very important and I would really hate to
see that happen to it.  The corollary is very unfortunate.  That
little bit of technology transform the boardroom conversation about
FDS.  Suddenly the cost of the licensing of FDS becomes justifiable
against the dev cost savings because we can just plug into the ORM. 
Having made that justification myself it is very difficult for me now
to go back and say, by the way I also have to incur the dev costs. 
When asked why? I have to confess that the Adobe code doesn't work and
we don't know when we're getting a fix.  For the Flex/Flash skeptics
in the room that's a god send.

For me it is a complete nightmare.  It is hard for me to separate the
cost of FDS licenses (which is almost prohibitively large) against the
cost of dev.  I would urge Jeff and Co to get the Hibernate Assembler
code watertight and shipping asap.  If I can be of any assistance I
will gladly offer my services.

If either of you would like to contact me, post a reply and I will

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] compc - degrees of specification


A typical way to do this is to first create a manifest file
for the components in the library, so that they can be associated with a
namespace of your choosing that is unrelated to your package hierarchy.
(Take a look at the file mxml-manifest.xml in the frameworks directory.
The flex-config.xml file associates this manifest file with the single
namespace http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml  despite the fact that its classes are
in various packages like mx.controls, mx.containers, etc.)
 
After you have set up a manifest file, you can use compc's
-namespace and -include-namespaces options to include all the components
in that namespace's manifest (and all the classes that they depend on)
without naming each one:
 
compc -namespace
http://www.yourcompany.com/flex/coolcomponents
http://www.yourcompany.com/flex/coolcomponents
mycoolcomponents-manifest.xml
   -include-namespaces
http://www.yourcompany.com/flex/coolcomponents
http://www.yourcompany.com/flex/coolcomponents 
 
If there are other classes that should go into your SWC which
aren't listed in your manifest or which the compiler can't discover by
doing a dependency analysis starting from the classes in your manifest,
then you can use the -include-classes option to list them one-by-one.

--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Troy Gilbert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
wrote:

 I've tripped on all of those at one time or another, so I'm happy to
oblige
 with an answer as best I can:
 
 1. It threw me a bit at first, but it makes sense once you look at
the types
 returned by XML class. If an element of the XML has complex
content (i.e.
 its not just straight text, but rather has additional XML elements or
 structure), then referring to that XML element will always return an
 XMLList. Thus, when you say for each (var s:XML in
data.lastResult.Tipos)
 the XML class is returning an XMLList for all elements named
Tipos, which
 in your sample data there is only one. If you want to iterate for
each of a
 certain element, you specify that element in the for each like this:
for
 each (var s:XML in data.lastResult.Tipos.Tipo). And to access them
directly
 with an index, you'd use var s:XML = data.lastResult.Tipos.Tipo[0];.
 
 2. To dynamically create UI components just new them (var
txt:TextInput =
 new TextInput();) and then add them to the container
(addChild(txt);).
 For dynamically creating forms the Form and FormItem components are a
 lifesaver as they'll save you from having to do any formating work. Your
 code will end up looking something like this:
 
 var form:Form = new Form();
 var formItem:FormItem = new FormItem();
 formItem.label = Some Field:;
 var txtField:TextInput = new TextInput();
 formItem.addChild(txtField);
 form.addChild(formItem);
 addChild(form);
 
 3. You can load data from a ByteArray into things like the image
component.
 Assuming you've already got the binary data pulled from the
database, and
 assuming its in a format that Flash understands directly (SWF, PNG, JPG,
 GIF, etc.), you can use the loadBytes() method of the
 flash.display.Loaderclass. This will give you a DisplayObject that you
 can then use elsewhere as
 you would traditionally use a dynamically loaded image.

[flexcoders] New to Flex

2007-02-23 Thread Robert Shaw

OK I guess I am an idiot. My boss finally decided for us to adapt to Adobe 
products starting with Flex.

I installed the Flex 2.0.1 version and used the Coldfusion application wizard 
to create a list grid detail page. Worked fine. Created the CFC and displayed 
the grid. But for the life of me I can't find the page that contains all of the 
code.
I opened the Main.mxml page and here is all the code.

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
 xmlns=*
 xmlns:controllers=com.cfgenerated.controllers.*
 layout=absolute
 currentState=mainApplication
 mx:Style source=application.css / 

 mx:states
  mx:State name=mainApplication
   mx:AddChild position=lastChild
controllers:windowedApplication top=0 left=0 right=0 bottom=0/
   /mx:AddChild
  /mx:State
 /mx:states
/mx:Application

How do I manipulate the Grid that was created?

Lost and no books.  I am a pretty good Java programmer and this looks straight 
forward. Just a little lost.

[flexcoders] Flex Socket + MSN Protocol

2007-02-23 Thread Michel Scoz

Hi all...

I've been reading and searching the archives about sockets but found nothing 
that would solve my problem, so i was wondering if anyone could give me a 
light =)

Currently I'm tryin to connect a Flex Project using Sockets to a MSN server 
using MSN Protocol Version 13. 

The problem im runnin into is that the protocol always ends with an \r\n to 
finish a command, pretty much like this:
 stands for send commands
 stands for received commands

 VER 1 MSNP13 CVR0\r\n
 VER 1 MSNP13 CVR0\r\n

See? Every command line end with an \r\n but I dont know how to replicate 
this using Flex.
The Socket class when i send \r\n always finishes the send command givin me 
and EOF (end of file error) in a window executing the app.
And the XMLSocket commands are always terminated by a zero (0) byte.

So, can someone give me some directions on how to do it?
I was able to do it with PHP with ease as I was only sending strings... how to 
do it with Flex? Any help ppl?

Thanks in advance,

Michel.

The 'xmlns' line says that when you see angle-bracket and then the bit after

So you should have a /com/cfgenerated/controllers/ directory, with a

RE: [flexcoders] FABridge aclarations...

What part are you asking if it needs to be embedded? The javascript side that 
lives in the HTML definitely does not get embedded. You can launch your app 
that is using the FABrdige from your next HTML file or you can modify the HTML 
template file in FB to use the JS code from the FABridge html examples. Does 
that make sense? You still need the ActionScript side of things embedded in the 
swf to act as your component or proxy that links your AS methods throughout 
your app to your JS methods in the parent html file that is hosting the swf.

[flexcoders] compiler behaviour question

Allow me to display acute naivety concerning the inner workings of
compilers.  In AS3, assume I have a class A with methods and properties
within.  Consider class B extending class A.  If I create 100 instances of
class B, does the Flash player have to create 100 instances of A also?  Does
the same hold for interfaces?

I believe you'll end up with 100 instances of B, which happen to have

Re: [flexcoders] Multiple Instances of CF / FDS and messaging broken?

2007-02-23 Thread Niklas Richardson


Hi Joao,

Thanks for the pointer.  With another pointer from Tom, and testing your
suggestion, it appears that it's just the destination that you need to
change.

My guess is that, eventhough you have multiple FDS's running, the
destinations must be registered in some server wide registry.  Therefore, if
you have the same destination name in multiple FDS's, then the last FDS to
start overwrites the registry entry for that destination.

By renaming the destination name for the production instance and then
updating the code for the production instance so CF and Flex pointed to the
new production destination has now fixed everything.  It actually doesn't
seem to matter than in the CF instances that all the event gateway names are
the same across instances.

Thanks again for the pointers.

Cheers

Niklas

Re: [flexcoders] dataProvider question

Thank you, Karl!! you've pointed me to the right direction. Turns out I was
doing 2 thins wrong.

first off, even though the MyDataList was marked as [Bindable] *inside* my
component, it also wanted the [Bindable] tag when i actually defined a
reference to the component! ([Bindable] public var
mycomponent:MyComponentClassName)

second, i initially avoided curly brackets because i thought flex will have
problem with the variable being null (it gets initialized later on). turns
out flex doesn't care!! it updates stuff when the data actually appears. so
i'm all good!

Thank you!!!

P.S. as a side note, i really gotta go through the whole flex2 developer's
guide... this was on page like 10xx of 1200, so... thanks guys!

my list is defined as follows:

mx:List id=lstData width=100% height=100%
labelField=@name /mx:List

In my component (well, class) i have the following variable:

[Bindable]
public var MyDataList:XMLList = new XMLList();

then when the application loads and i get the instance of the component, i
call the following:
lstData.dataProvider = mycomponent.MyDataList;

everything looks ok so far, right? then then when i receive a proper xml,
i update it all inside the component:

MyDataList = new XML(myxmlstring).children();

theoretically the lstData should somehow receive notification that the
dataProvider has been updated and refresh itself, right? this doesn't seem
to work. Since this doesn't seem to work we're reserved to throwing events
from the component to the list and rebinding the list when that event is
caught by the gui, but the whole thing is pretty cumbersome and i think this
should work automatically what are we doing wrong?

Thank you!

When i receive data from webservice, i update the xmllist of the

also, i have tried this with an XMLListCollection as well and same

re: [flexcoders] Flex Socket + MSN Protocol

2007-02-23 Thread Ben Stucki


Michel,

Sometimes when debugging white space characters such as  
carriage  
return and new line are represented by \r and \n respectively. 
This is because otherwise you really wouldn't know they're there, but they are 
coming in from the binary. In hex I believe carriage  
return  
(\r) is 0x0D and new line (\n) is 0x0A. So you should be able 
to send them using writeByte(0x0D) and writeByte(0x0A). You can double check 
for the correct hex by calling toString(16) on the \r and \n bytes coming in. 
You may already be doing this correctly, I just couldn't tell for sure from the 
posting.

[flexcoders] Re: Zooming out of a list ?!

2007-02-23 Thread rd_grimes

I haven't done this, so I'm just throwing out possibilities. 

Could you not create a custom component that acts as an item renderer 
for the list, wherein the custom component has two view states (normal  
and zoomed-in)? The only thing is, since this would operate inline to 
the list, I'm not sure what it does looks-wise to the overall list 
structure. On the other hand, if the zoomed-in window covers the list, 
I'm not sure you would care because once the zoomed in view returns to 
normal view state, the containing list should return to looking normal. 

Another possibility is to pop the list item out such as you would do in 
a drag operation. In other words, convert the list item through the 
BitMapData class to an image and have it move to the center of the 
screen at which point you could drop it automatically into your 
borderless pop-up. At that point, you can populate the pop-up with the 
expanded list item info. 

Not sure if either of those ideas work for you.

RE: [flexcoders] Access Flex components from browser

There are a few ways you can approach this. One is you can pass the variables 
in via the querystring and then take them from the querystring and send them to 
your flex application via flashvars. If you are using php/jsp/asp or some other 
server side processing, this is really easy to do - just do a response.write of 
the qs value into the flashvar in the embed tag where your swf is being 
embedded into the html file.
 
If you are using straight client side HTML files, then you will have to write 
the javascript to extract the parameter values from the url of the page.
 
If you don't want to use flashvars, you could also set a variable in the 
javascript in your hosting html file and then use something like the Flex Ajax 
Bridge to get the values of those variables.
 
Check out this article, it should help a good bit:

Thanks Karl, but i think that I don't explain me very good.
Flex generate an MXML app, and, only in the bin folder, autogenerate the swf

Flex generate an HTML page only in the bin folder containing the javascript

embedd the swf file from a src, and in the html generated by flex, the swf
is embbeded on the fly or something like this.

   What part are you asking if it needs to be embedded? The javascript
side that lives in the HTML definitely does not get embedded. You can launch
your app that is using the FABrdige from your next HTML file or you can
modify the HTML template file in FB to use the JS code from the FABridge
html examples. Does that make sense? You still need the ActionScript side of
things embedded in the swf to act as your component or proxy that links your
AS methods throughout your app to your JS methods in the parent html file
that is hosting the swf.

The problem is that the help examples use elements, while you are

RE: [flexcoders] FABridge aclarations...

At compile time, FlexBuilder generates your hosting HTML file based on the HTML 
template in html-template/index.template.html
 
The easiest option right now is to take your generated html file and add in the 
javascript methods that you need, and save it off as a different html file. 
Then after you compile, just hit your new html file instead of the generated 
file (if you want, you can set FB to open to a specific HTML file so it always 
uses your other file).
 
Does that make sense? The SWF will get regenerated with each compile and if you 
have added the FABridge component, it will always be in there - regardless of 
what HTML file hosts that swf.

RE: [flexcoders] Zooming out of a list ?!

2007-02-23 Thread Ely Greenfield

 
 
Hi Jamie. That's pretty much exactly how I would reccomend doing it.  
 
as for #2:  all displayobjects have a property called localToGlobal(),
which converts coordinates from the component's coordinate system to the
global coordinate system.  So you could do:
 
 
var topLeft:Point =
systemManager.globalToLocal(myItemRenderer.localToGlobal(new
Point(0,0)));
var bottomRight:Point =
systemManager.globalToLocal(myItemRenderer.localToGlobal(new
Point(myItemRenderer.width,myItemRenderer.height)));
 
and there you've got the bounding box for your component in
popup-coordinate-space.

Subject: [flexcoders] Zooming out of a list ?!



Hi,

I've been exploring the wonderful world of effects and transitions 
recently... there's something I would *love* to be able to do - but 
I suspect this is not possible. Could someone confirm or deny 
accordingly ?!

Here's the idea...

I have a horizontal list which consists of a set of charts. This 
list is quite small - acting really, like a row of thumbnails for 
the charts.

If the user clicks on a chart, it appears in a nice big readable 
size in a popup window.

Now... what I'd like to do is apply a 'zoom' style transition from 
the clicked list element to the popup window so that the popup 
appears to zoom out of the list itself.

Actually, as I write this, a *possible* solution has occurred to 
me...

(1) The user clicks on an element on the list
(2) This causes a totall borderless popup window to be created, 
exactly over the chart in the list that the user clicked on. This 
would appear 'invisble' to the user since visually it should look 
the same.
(3) A sequence (consisting of a zoom effect and move) is applied to 
the popup to expand it and bring it into the centre of the screen.

If this is possible, I *think* it would look ok ?

Question then is, how to achieve (2)...

Or am I barking up the wrong tree ?!

2007-02-23 Thread greenfishinwater

I've noticed when using the Date chooser part of the DateField that
when used, it remembers the month of the previous time it was used.

For Example:

Today is 23rd February.
I set the selected range to be 28 feb to 28 August.
Set the selected date to null.

User specifies a date, scrolls to month may selects date 15 May, does
other work.

Then comes back to the DateField, which I programatically set the
selected date back to null.

The month first shown is May, whereas I want the month to be February.

Is there anyway I can specify which month should be shown when the
chooser is used?

Thanks Andrew

[flexcoders] Size of text field in an Alert

2007-02-23 Thread greenfishinwater

In the alert control, it is possible to alter the width of the alert.
But this does not change the width of the text shown in the alert.

If I make the alert wider, I want the textfield to be wider so it does
not display the text over 2 lines.

Is there anyway to alter the width of the alert text field.

Thanks

Andrew

[flexcoders] Re: htmlText css Span tag

2007-02-23 Thread Derrick Grigg

I have been able to get that to work in TextArea's with the htmlText,
however, the fonts start to act crazy for some reason. I was never
able to get it to reliably work so I just went with using the font
tag in the htmlText to get it to work. A real pain but it does work.

[flexcoders] flex and Java SE 6 wsgen generated services

2007-02-23 Thread Giles Velarde

Hi All,

I was wondering if any of you have been trying to auto-generate WSDLs 
and web-services using wsgen and access them using Flash. Wsgen 
separates the message parameters from WSDL file, and keeps them in a 
separate XSD, but this doesn't seem to be supported right now.

Does anyone know of any elegant-ish workarounds or whether support for 
this kind of WSDL is likely to be added in near-future releases of Flash?

I imagine there will be lots of people trying to use wsgen on new projects.

Best,
Giles

[flexcoders] show data tips not working for datagrid

2007-02-23 Thread Cashorali, Tanya M.

I'm trying to get a certain field to show up because it is clipped by the cell
in my datagrid.

 

I've set showDataTips = 'true' in the datagrid column that I want to show.  I've
also set a dataTipFunction = showDetails on the datagrid itself and for the
column.

 

The function looks like this:

private function showDetails( item:Object ) : String {
var xmlItem:XML = item as XML;

return [EMAIL PROTECTED];

} 

 

Nothing is happening though, no pop-up box, nothing.  I am using an
XMLListCollection as the dataprovider for the datagrid.

about number 2

considering the code:

  site name=dzone url=www.dzone.com/
  /root
/mx:XMLList

I want the click event of the siteList to show an Alert with the value of
the url attribute of the selected site item

can you help me?

thanks in advance

   Hi André,

Change your labelField property to be labelField=@name Because you are
pulling the value from an XML attribute you need to designate it as such
using @ before the property name.

What do you mean you want to return the URL attribute? You want to display
it? Please be more specific about number 2.

[flexcoders] Test for Network Connection

2007-02-23 Thread Matt Maher

I have a few probing questions that will ultimately force my final design.

I'm writing an on-line/off-line application that will sync your data
once you return to an on-line status. Instead of calling an http
service every 15 seconds to test for connection status, is there some
way I can see deeper into the client's machine to see the status of
network connection? Or perhaps a lighter ping mechanism that doesn't
actually send anything over the wire to test for connection?

Thanks

Did not use Textarea, but it happens both in TEXTINPUT and

on a few XP machines too - and no issues there.

What do you mean by thrashed? Sorry, have never heard that term before

Re: [flexcoders] FABridge aclarations...

Thanks for the explanation of the html template Karl, I will try it as you
say.

Matías Nicolás Sommi


2007/2/23, Karl Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:


   At compile time, FlexBuilder generates your hosting HTML file based on
the HTML template in html-template/index.template.html

The easiest option right now is to take your generated html file and add
in the javascript methods that you need, and save it off as a different html
file. Then after you compile, just hit your new html file instead of the
generated file (if you want, you can set FB to open to a specific HTML file
so it always uses your other file).

Does that make sense? The SWF will get regenerated with each compile and
if you have added the FABridge component, it will always be in there -
regardless of what HTML file hosts that swf.

Thanks Karl, but i think that I don't explain me very good.
Flex generate an MXML app, and, only in the bin folder, autogenerate the
swf file.
The Javascript code is included in a HTML page.
Flex generate an HTML page only in the bin folder containing the
javascript methods for history and other thinks like the get plugin. The
think that I want to know is if I need touch these HTML generated by flex,
or generate one myself, but in this last case, I need the swf file... I must
use the bin/swf file?  This comment is because in the fabridge example, the
html embedd the swf file from a src, and in the html generated by flex, the
swf is embbeded on the fly or something like this.
If you have a very simple example (the most simple as possible) of one
flex project using fabridge I appreciate it very much.

Thanks again.

2007/2/23, Karl Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

What part are you asking if it needs to be embedded? The javascript
 side that lives in the HTML definitely does not get embedded. You can launch
 your app that is using the FABrdige from your next HTML file or you can
 modify the HTML template file in FB to use the JS code from the FABridge
 html examples. Does that make sense? You still need the ActionScript side of
 things embedded in the swf to act as your component or proxy that links your
 AS methods throughout your app to your JS methods in the parent html file
 that is hosting the swf.

 Hello, I'm working in one app and I want to call a method of javascript

 steps (in configuration), I say, I need to create a new HTML, and embed into
 it the swf compiled? Or I can use the html generated by the flex builder?
 I try to copy as the example but I don't get it works.
