[flexcoders] Suspending data bindings during (lazy) server read
I am transfering the head of a hierarchy of objects to the client for them to choose which one they want to see details for. The list returned in this initial fetch is bound to a datagrid control, and some of the data items are displayed in the grid. The rest of the data is loaded lazily through a destination via the java assembler. Once a request for the rest of the object is received I do return quite a lot of data and it can take up to 2 seconds for the response to arrive back at the client. One immediate question is how I show a progress bar or a wait cursor while this operation is occurring. In all honesty I would prefer it was synchronous but I can't seem to force that to happen. So, I have a partially loaded object and when the remainder of the data does finally show up I recalculate some of the fields that I am displaying in the orginal data grid because they may be stale. What I have found is that I get a stack overflow where the data binding manager is busy watching changes to the members of the class that I am busy re-calculating. During recalculation I get an itemPending error which causes my recalc function to be re-called which touches the bound data items which causes the data binding manager to kick off again. And round and round we go until I either run out of stack space or the server stuff returns just in time and my data show up. I have tried to separate out the activities so there is no binding during loading, but this is causing me some horrible usability issues and seems to be a bad way of approaching the problem. What's more the asynchronous nature of the server interaction is such that I can't tell when exactly I'm going to receive the data (I have to rely on trapping itemPending errors) so I don;t really know when it is safe to re-bind. What I would like to be able to do is just suspend the data bindings in the client code while the lazy loading is taking place, and then re-bind when I know I have all the data. Any hints or architectural suggestions would be greatly appreciated. SP
[flexcoders] Re: Flex WebServices and JAX-WS 2.0 WSDL.BadElement Error
Hi Dima, Thanks, for the suggestion, but unfortunately the wsdl files generated by glassfish for circular imports, but found no such issues. I've played around today more with my application to try and get more information to understand why the issue happens with using Cairngorm framework, but not embedded MXML Webservices. I've noticed when using embedded MXML WebService in my test application when the application is loaded the WSDL files get loaded from the WebServer upon application load, but when I use Cairngorm 2.2 Beta (which has the loadWSDL() ) function the WSDL files do not seem to be loaded upon application load. It isn't until I make a call to a web service API that the WSDL files get loaded. I think this is perhaps related to my issue. I have the standard call to my Cairngorm webservice business:Services inside the MXML file containing my mx:Application, but I'm wondering why I do not see the web server get hit to grab the WSDL files.

Actually, your problem is not unique to accessing a method from Flex and it's got nothing to do with instantiation.. It's a scope issue. The scope names applied to the properties and methods of a cfc are confusing. Anything marked as public or remote will show in the this scope. Anything private is in the variables scope or the no scope (no prefix).

[flexcoders] How to bind a SharedObject to a dataprovider
Hi! On the server side I've got a SO object which is a userlist - its properties are Objects and tey look like (user_name, ({name:lala,id:3})) Now I want to bind the data from the SO to my datagrid.. unfortunatelly after I do this - the data doesn't appear in the datagrid.. I've read that I need to prepare a wrapper - but with that one I've done it doesn't work - don't know why.. If somebody could show me a working example I would be very thankful ;) BR stf

Re: [flexcoders] Flex app on PDA - MS Pocket PC / Windows Mobile
Applications built with Flex Builder (or anything using AS3 for that matter) are targeted for Flash Player 9. The last release of a Flash Player that I know of for the PDA is Flash Player 7 that features AS2.0 support. If your application is strongly object-oriented, down porting it to AS2.0 would make it possible. If your application makes a lot of use of Flex components, I wouldn't port. Keep in mind, the desktop experience doesn't necessarily translate into the PDA experience. Your UI would have to go under a number of changes to fit the constraints of the viewable area, how a user would be able to input information, and how to navigate through the aspects of your applications. Good luck, -mL http://knowledge.lapasa.net amri_ls wrote: Hi!

[flexcoders] Arrow-down/up event in non-editable DataGrid?
First-time hello Flexcoders, I have a non-editable DataGrid, and as the user arrows-down through the rows, I want to handle the event and do some stuff. The itemClick event only works for mouse-clicks on the rows; and itemFocusIn is only dispatched if the item is editable, so that doesn't work either. I tried directly data-binding a label in another control to the selectedItem in this DataGrid, and as I arrow-down through the list I can see it updating each time - so the event must be getting handled somewhere. Unfortunately, I want to do more than just data-binding when the user arrows-down through the list, so I need an event handler that captures this event. Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks!

[flexcoders] Custom Event Handler from Popup?
So I'm still trying to dig through all of this OO stuff. Its been tough! I've made a couple of custom events from views. The handling I've learned is usually like this: view:CustomComp somethingReturned=handler(event)/ But I have one that is a popup. The popup is invoked like this: private function showPopup():void { var myPopup:customPopup = customPopup(PopUpManager.createetc) myPopup.passedVar = somethingPassed... etc } The popup has a custom event that is dispatched on closing the popup. How can I create a handler for it? myPopup.somethingReturned = handler (event) returns an error in Flex. If I make the popup a view in MXML, the event handler works fine.

Re: [flexcoders] Form Handling?

Douglas, Michael has probably nailed it. As I was getting up to speed with XML I constantly found myself baffled by my results (as reported by trace statements) until I realized that I need to always trace xml.toXMLString() to get the code I was actually curious about (otherwise, XML objects with simple content will simply display the content, which is often blank).

Re: [flexcoders] Dynamic Instance of Class Data Typing
So, the Flex compiler *does* do dead stripping when linking? I didn't think it actually did this (which I assumed was the root cause for the size of my Flex apps vs. ActionScript apps ... usually a meg difference for bare bones stuff). I've never seen that mentioned in the docs and just assumed there was no dead-stripping... For example, if I created an app that used no UI elements (or minimal UI elements) then it should be pretty small, huh? Troy.

[flexcoders] autocomplete help
Hey guys. We continue to have a ton of trouble trying to implement autocomplete with a changing data provider. Our data rpovider will be coming from the db as the user types. So far using the adobe one and also the one here: http://kuwamoto.org/2006/05/11/example-code-updated-for-beta-3/ we can only get it to basically work as a filter for an existing dataset in a grid. There MUST be a way to create a googlesuggest type autocomplete with flex. Anyone have any luck??

[flexcoders] Re: Getting selectedItems to properly *select*...
Got it! It appears that selectedItems is dependent on the data being *absolutely identical* to the dataProvider. And while I thought my data was identical, it really wasn't. In the debugger, if you look at a variable, its always: Array (@123456). What I found was that although the data was definitely the same, that number was not. To fix the problem, I centralized all data to go through one data manager, whereas before I was reinitializing a different data component in each component. So now, I'm basically calling parentApplication.dataManager.someFunction () from all of my components. This isn't good quite frankly, but by doing so, the @123456 is always the same. If anyone else can think of a better way, I'm all ears...

Re: [flexcoders] Mac Flashplayer bug discovered (behaves differently than the PC)
one first load, mine stays on the picture a while and then goes to black after about 15 sec and then the words Twirly Face appear. on reload, mine goes to black almost immediately and then word appear faster. If I clear my cache I then get 15 sec. My thinking is that the bug is happening once some element is fully loaded in the cache right before the code which creates the Twirly Face text to appear. Without seeing the code it would be hard to know, but I would try to isolate which function is causing black out and post that. What is being loaded before Twirly Face appears?? What is being called to load the Twirly Face text. - Kevin On Mar 14, 2007, at 12:36 PM, {reduxdj} wrote: Troy: I don't know if that's good news or bad news? ;) I checked the girlfriends mac and both have the same issue, which player are you using btw?

Re: [flexcoders] Mac Flashplayer bug discovered (behaves differently than the PC)
Ah, okay... I tried it out under Windows and it did do different stuff. But its get weirder... The first time I ran it on the Mac, it loaded up the first image (Twirly Face), and started dropping the leaves down the screen, but no text was displayed (just the PAUSE, ME and EDIT buttons), and it just sat there. The second time I loaded it up on the Mac, it displayed the behavior you were talking about (it faded to black), but continued to swap through the different names of the photos. The first time I ran it on the PC (Windows), it did the same thing as the Mac: it loaded up the first image and just sat there. As soon as I refreshed the page, though, it started running the slideshow correctly (I assume) with fades/slides, etc., and different pictures. So, not only is the behavior inconsistent between Mac and PC, its inconsistent between first and second run... perhaps its an image loading error or similar? Troy.

[flexcoders] Bug in Flex Charts?
I have created an app which creates a runtime error about 90% of the time when it loads up. The app contains 4 embedded Flex 2 apps (using SWFLoader). If I reduce the number of embedded apps to 2, the runtime error occurs about 33% of the time. If I decrease the number of embedded apps to 1, the runtime error never occurs. The error begins as follows: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert mx.core::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.core.IFactory. at mx.charts.series::BarSeries/get legendData()[C:\dev\flex_201_gmc\sdk\frameworks\mx\charts\series\BarSeries.as:178] The error message indicates the file and line where the error occurs, but this is an Adobe component, not something I wrote (and I can't see the source of the component). All that my child apps are doing are switching states to display a chart, and then adding bars onto the chart (pretty straight foward). The parent app never touches the charts, as it'a all handled within the child apps. The child apps also run fine as stand alone applications. Anyone have any ideas about this? Is this something to report to Adobe? Frustrated...

Re: [flexcoders] standalone exe
Zinc provides a more advanced wrapped EXE. They provide a library of API that extends Flash's reach beyond the sandbox to give you OS-specific access. They allow you to run full-screen in a native resolution of your choice (good for games). You can set the icon for the executable and completely disable the right-click context menu. It will also package things as an installer. It also has some nice features related to displaying your Flash app transparently on the desktop (similar to doing wmode=transparent when embedding on a webpage) -- a very cool technique that I'm just itching to leverage in my next desktop app. With Adobe's projector, you basically get the Flash Player Stand-alone app with your SWF appended to the end of it, no more options or features. I think Zinc is worth it, if you're distributing the app to any size audience where a professional look and feel is desirable (like an auto-play on a CD). If you just need to wrap something as an exe to make it trivial for your grandma to pop it her computer and run it without worrying about downloading/installing anything, then Adobe's projector is fine.

[flexcoders] Binding null values from PHP/Mysql
Has anyone had trouble returning NULL values from AMFPHP/MySQL. When my database returns NULL for a certain field, it does not bind properly in FLEX and the bound field takes on whatever value it had previous to the service call. Example: (Cairngorm) (3 TextInput fields) username firstname lastname get result list of users from the server: assign model.selectedUser = model.curentUserList.getItemAt(0) (Binding works correctly) username displays 'test' firstname displays 'Test' lastname displays 'User' change assignment to model.selectedUser = model.curentUserList.getItemAt(2) (in this case firstname lastname = NULL and Binding doesn't work right) username displays 'nextuser' firstname displays 'Test' (this is the value from the previous selection) lastname displays 'User' (this is the value from the previous selection) it seems like if the new value is blank, it doesn't recognize that there is a change required in the binding. Thanks for the help. - Kevin

Re: [flexcoders] Binding null values from PHP/Mysql
I figured out the problem... it has to do with a class from the FlexLib called: flexlib:PromptingTextInput there seems to be a bug in it when it tries to bind to Null values... it doesn't clear out the old value. I will look into it more. thanks, kevin On Mar 14, 2007, at 2:07 PM, Kevin wrote: Has anyone had trouble returning NULL values from AMFPHP/MySQL. When my database returns NULL for a certain field, it does not bind properly in FLEX and the bound field takes on whatever value it had previous to the service call. Example: (Cairngorm) (3 TextInput fields) username firstname lastname get result list of users from the server: assign model.selectedUser = model.curentUserList.getItemAt(0) (Binding works correctly) username displays 'test' firstname displays 'Test' lastname displays 'User' change assignment to model.selectedUser = model.curentUserList.getItemAt(2) (in this case firstname lastname = NULL and Binding doesn't work right) username displays 'nextuser' firstname displays 'Test' (this is the value from the previous selection) lastname displays 'User' (this is the value from the previous selection) it seems like if the new value is blank, it doesn't recognize that there is a change required in the binding.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Training Experiences/Suggestions?
If I can throw my ha'penny in as a longtime macromedia/adobe trainer - (uk based so not in the frame for this!) the courses themselves are good, but if I were you I would go for a higher level of customisation - try and get the trainer to come up with a tailored programme that suits your people. The problem I have found with those courses is that there is so much to pack in that there isn't room to really explore things as fully as one might like . Some of the early stuff (like adding controls etc) is stuff that is pretty intuitive for existing developers and is often best sealt with in granular detail later on when the controls themselves are being used a lot more to load data . Also, there is the Creating visual ah can't recall and don't have details to hand but iss something like creating visual experience' in Flex which is a great little course for learning about really c§ustomisisng the app - developers and designers alike work well together on this and it helps developers understand the structure of components vis a vis skinning etc. good luck !

[flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm: When / why override clone in Events
In this case, you are creating a new event instance, so the clone over-ride doesn't matter. It would only matter if you were redispatching an event that was already instantiated. - do I really need to create a custom event class for every type of event? Usually, you would only create a custom event, in Cairngorm or plain Flex, if you need to attach properties (parameters, data...) to the event. If not, just register the event name in the Controller and you're good to go. -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Sean Sell [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you, that was very helpful.

[flexcoders] about :New Project: FlexCRUD -- Create Update Delete for Flex/amfphp/cairngorm
hi; when i saw your [EMAIL PROTECTED] about your project; i saved it in case i need... and now i need to try it but the link does not work. is there any other link that i can download your project ? thanks... - Original Message From: Mike Crowe [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, February 24, 2007 9:15:19 AM Subject: [flexcoders] New Project: FlexCRUD -- Create Update Delete for Flex/amfphp/cairngorm Hi folks, I'm in the process of releasing my system generation utility via riaforge. Essentially, I'm using about 15 templates to generate 100 files. From a 1' perspective, I have created a generic template based system that generates: * Cairngorm commands: Get, GetAll, Save, Delete * Cairngorm events: GetSuccess, GetFailure, etc. * Cairngorm control file * amfphp Remote Delegate * amfphp ViewObject for both Actionscript and PHP * amfphp Service dispatcher * amfphp DTO file to save ViewObject to database * Unit test structures for testing both PHP-Database and Flex- PHP-Database operations for all tables. * etc. I based the database on PHP Doctrine, which handles all my database interaction in a very clean manner. Here's the help I need. To me, I think this will be very helpful to somebody *starting* a new project. It will generate all the core tables, events, commands, and directories for a basic system. However, I need some review from the Flex community to tell me if I'm way off base on this. If it isn't useful, please be honest and provide that feedback. Here's the initial wiki documenting the core. I'll shoot to release the full code tomorrow: http://www.your- solutions. us/doku.php/ start TIA Mike !-- #ygrp-mlmsg {font-size:13px;font-family:arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif;} #ygrp-mlmsg table {font-size:inherit;font:100%;} #ygrp-mlmsg select, input, textarea {font:99% arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif;} #ygrp-mlmsg pre, code {font:115% monospace;} #ygrp-mlmsg * {line-height:1.22em;} #ygrp-text{ font-family:Georgia; } #ygrp-text p{ margin:0 0 1em 0; } #ygrp-tpmsgs{ font-family:Arial; clear:both; } #ygrp-vitnav{ padding-top:10px; font-family:Verdana; font-size:77%; margin:0; } #ygrp-vitnav a{ padding:0 1px; } #ygrp-actbar{ clear:both; margin:25px 0; white-space:nowrap; color:#666; text-align:right; } #ygrp-actbar .left{ float:left; white-space:nowrap; } .bld{font-weight:bold;} #ygrp-grft{ font-family:Verdana; font-size:77%; padding:15px 0; } #ygrp-ft{ font-family:verdana; font-size:77%; border-top:1px solid #666; padding:5px 0; } #ygrp-mlmsg #logo{ padding-bottom:10px; } #ygrp-vital{ background-color:#e0ecee; margin-bottom:20px; padding:2px 0 8px 8px; } #ygrp-vital #vithd{ font-size:77%; font-family:Verdana; font-weight:bold; color:#333; text-transform:uppercase; } #ygrp-vital ul{ padding:0; margin:2px 0; } #ygrp-vital ul li{ list-style-type:none; clear:both; border:1px solid #e0ecee; } #ygrp-vital ul li .ct{ font-weight:bold; color:#ff7900; float:right; width:2em; text-align:right; padding-right:.5em; } #ygrp-vital ul li .cat{ font-weight:bold; } #ygrp-vital a { text-decoration:none; } #ygrp-vital a:hover{ text-decoration:underline; } #ygrp-sponsor #hd{ color:#999; font-size:77%; } #ygrp-sponsor #ov{ padding:6px 13px; background-color:#e0ecee; margin-bottom:20px; } #ygrp-sponsor #ov ul{ padding:0 0 0 8px; margin:0; } #ygrp-sponsor #ov li{ list-style-type:square; padding:6px 0; font-size:77%; } #ygrp-sponsor #ov li a{ text-decoration:none; font-size:130%; } #ygrp-sponsor #nc { background-color:#eee; margin-bottom:20px; padding:0 8px; } #ygrp-sponsor .ad{ padding:8px 0; } #ygrp-sponsor .ad #hd1{ font-family:Arial; font-weight:bold; color:#628c2a; font-size:100%; line-height:122%; } #ygrp-sponsor .ad a{ text-decoration:none; } #ygrp-sponsor .ad a:hover{ text-decoration:underline; } #ygrp-sponsor .ad p{ margin:0; } o {font-size:0;} .MsoNormal { margin:0 0 0 0; } #ygrp-text tt{ font-size:120%; } blockquote{margin:0 0 0 4px;} .replbq {margin:4;} -- Sucker-punch spam with award-winning protection.

RE: [flexcoders] Datagrid/Tree control with summary
Someone has done this as an example. Google for it, I think it was called TreeGrid. Tracy From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nate Pearson Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2007 3:10 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Datagrid/Tree control with summary The classic example would be a grid that shows North America, Europe and Asia. Each of these have a total expense and revenue column. If you expand north america, you get canada, US and mexico. Each of those have a total expense and revenue column which add up to North america's summary. ect ect ect... Anyone know how to do this? Would I extend a tree control or extend a datagrid? thanks in advance, Nate
[flexcoders] Re: Missing Widget? Where is the Select List thingy?
My take on it : Flex uses drag 'n' drop instead of the buttons in the middle. The documentation for drag n drop functionality builds what youre talking about but without the buttons. I guess drag n drop would be considered neater :D But if you wanted the buttons - it wouldn't take much work to do so. Just when clicked - move the selectedItem to the other list/datagrid/whatever etc. Not a good code example - but I can build a sample if you'd like... :D --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, missgiggygirl [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Does Flex Builder 2 have built in a Select List widget, that allows you to move items horizontally between two boxes? See this image: http://docs.sun.com/source/817-5677/images/proj_add_acl.gif And if it doesn't have this common widget built in (which I do not think it does, since I just looked and double-checked) does anyone have any code examples one they made or used?

Thanks for the props, guys! Also, don't forget about our Flexmaniacs conference in June -- http://flex2conference.figleaf.com http://flex2conference.figleaf.com !

Two of my coworkers and I took those 2 particular classes through Figleaf Training in Washington DC. The instructor was very knowledgable and the training materials were pretty much your run-of-the-mill book w/ accompanying CD. Overall we were very pleased with the courses. The 3 of us are all previous Flash/ColdFusion developers - I'd say the courses definitely ramped us up much more quickly than we could have ever done on our own (which was our intention - we wanted a solid foundation that would allow us to get quickly out of the gates). -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of michael_p_levine Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2007 2:42 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Training Experiences/Suggestions? The company I'm working for is preparing to shift it's web development from ASP.NET to Flex and is interested in bringing in a good Flex instructor on-site to provide training to a small group of developers. The company is located in Chicago, but we're willing to fly someone in from anywhere in the U.S. and provide accommodations for the week. If we go with the Adobe courses (are there alternatives?) we would target the 3-day Flex 2: Developing Rich Client Applications followed by the 2-day Flex 2: Data and Communications. I am very interested in hearing other people's experiences with any type of instructor-lead Flex training courses and any suggestions on training providers and/or specific instructors. - What company provided the training? - How was the instructor? - How was the training material? - Any other suggestions or feedback?
