 Thanks for the suggestion Tom.  Quick question:  Would that cause the
 image to be cached twice by the browser - once in my website, and
 once in my flex app when I load it via runtime css.  This is what I'm
 actually trying to avoid.

I would *expect* the browser hosting the image would cache it when it saw it 
on the HTML web site, and when it later saw it again in a SWF stylesheet's 
url() reference just serve it up from the cache.

Re: [flexcoders] States and transitions

2007-03-23 Thread franto


Sure, this is possible, Im doing it right now

you just have to use Sequence in your transition

here is mine

mx:Transition fromState={fromLobbyState} toState=gameLayout

   mx:Sequence id=gameTransition duration=300
effectStart=trace('\n\n GANGE STATE: from lobbyLayout to gameLayout
\n\n')

   mx:Pause duration=5000 effectStart=trace('PAUSE 1')/

   mx:Parallel id=lobbyOut effectStart=trace('parallel
1')
   mx:AnimateProperty target={titleBar} property=alpha
fromValue=1 toValue=0 startDelay={initDelay}/
   mx:AnimateProperty target={asistantBar}
property=alpha fromValue=1 toValue=0 startDelay={initDelay + 1 *
animInterval}/
   /mx:Parallel

   mx:Pause duration=5000 effectStart=trace('PAUSE 1')/

   mx:Parallel effectStart=trace('parallel 2')

   mx:RemoveChildAction target={titleBar}/
   mx:RemoveChildAction target={asistantBar}/
   /mx:Parallel

   mx:Parallel duration=300 effectStart=trace('parallel
3') effectEnd=gameContent.loadGame()
   mx:AddChildAction target={titleBar2}
startDelay={initDelay}/
   mx:AnimateProperty target={titleBar2}
property=alpha fromValue=0 toValue=1 startDelay={initDelay}/
   mx:AddChildAction target={asistantBar2}
startDelay={initDelay + 1 * animInterval}/
   mx:AnimateProperty target={asistantBar2}
property=alpha fromValue=0 toValue=1 startDelay={initDelay + 1 *
animInterval}/

   /mx:Parallel
   /mx:Sequence
   /mx:Transition

Hope this helps...

BUT I HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM

as you said transition are played after changing state, because on screen
all seems ok, if I add at the start 5 sec PAUSE, it just waits 5 sec and
then all is playing. But Im listening at FlexEvent.ADD, and
FlexEvent.REMOVEof this components which are changing...and they
dispatch ADD + REMOVE
before transition (as if state was done) and there after PAUSE they dispatch
once more REMOVE event (just now component goes out of screen). So visually
all is correct, but I have to do something on ADD, REMOVE events, and this
is bugged or Im missing something...

Can someone help me?

On 15/03/07, Troy Gilbert [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:


  I'm dabbling with states and transitions for the first time, so pardon
the inexperienced question...

My UI is logically divided into pages like a traditional wizard
interface. Visually, I'd like my pages to slide in and out of view as I
transition to them. Specifically, you can think of it like all of the
pages are in a horizontal scroll box, so when I go from page 1 to page 3 I
want to scroll page 1 to the left, page 2 to the left and scroll page 3 into
view from the right. And then if I want to go from page 3 back to page 1, I
want to do the reverse: scroll page 3 out of view to the right, scroll page
2 from left to right into and outof the view, and finally scroll page 1 from
the left into the view. This would all be continously of course.

The big thing that's tripping me up is the order in which state changes
occur. The impression I'm getting is that the actions for a state (like
AddChild, RemoveChild, SetPropertyValue) are executed *then* the
transition is applied. The problem is that I can't figure out how to apply
transition effects to my outgoing objects.

For example, consider two pages, #1 and #2. My base state has both pages
hidden. I then have two states each with one of the pages visible. If I have
a transition from state 1 to state 2, page #1 is hidden, then the
transition plays. But I want the transition to include page 1 (sliding it
out of view).

My question: is it possible to execute a transition on the current 
state*before* the new
state becomes active, then play a transition on the new state... and
better yet, is it possible to apply the settings for the new state,
perform the transitions, then remove the previous states changes?

Part of me thinks I really need some generalized scroller control to
contain my pages, but my gut tells me that states/transitions/effects should
give me all the tools I need to accomplish this. And since I only have 5-6
states total, I'm cool with having to hardcode a certain number of
transitions (left to right, right to left, etc.).

Thanks,

Troy.

Subject: [flexcoders] LiveCycle Data Services 2.5 - Using dynamically
referenced queue destinations

 

Our application currently uses a large number of queue destinations. We
create the 
destinations in the messaging-config.xml file and compile our app
against the FDS 
configuration files (and then upload to the J2EE container). There are
100+ queue 
destinations defined in messaging-config.xml currently.

Our Java backend creates these queues in ActiveMQ or JBoss (using the
same queue 
destinations as configured in messaging-config.xml) and pumps data in to
them. 

I've read through the beta documentation and there is a section on
Configuring components 
with a bootstrap service. Do we need to create a class that
creates/exposes these queue 
destinations to the Flex app, or can we just attach Flex consumers to
queue destinations and 
the new LCDS libraries will do the work for us?

Any input you might have would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

I might be wrong, but on line 27 of the mxml file I think that it should say:

Anyway, this is what I had to do for flex not too throw an error. It was saying

 No.

 You can use Flex's RemoteObject straight to a CFC, no FDS (now

called LCDS 

 btw) required.

 

  Please let me know if a company would require FDS in order to use

  coldfusion with flex?

[flexcoders] Re: Advanced DataGrid / Destination Aware intros tight coupling?

2007-03-23 Thread Maury Sword

Anatole,

I just ordered my copy yesterday and downloaded the PDF version but I 
haven't had time to do much reading yet.  I'll be sure to pay close 
attention to that part of the book.  I'm always looking for ways to 
improve my class libraries and coding techniques.  It's refreshing to 
see someone else has at least considered this approach.  

Thanks,
Maury

Please take a look @ the subchapter on resources (somewhere close
 to the end of chapter 8 - did not get my copy of the book with real
 page numbers yet). Basically it talks about moving destination part
 along with key columns and some other properties into separate 
class -
 there you can provide caching and notifications a la runtime 
styles -
 only on the properties/model level.

   Evening folks,
   
   I finished reading a chapter in the new book, RIAs with Flex 
and 
  Java.
   Specifically, I was reading Chapter 11: Advanced Datagrid which
   introduces the concept of a destination aware component which 
  contains
   calls to a remote object embedded in the extended component's 
MXML 
  code.
   
   Although the destination and method are passed to the component 
in
   compile time attributes, this smells of not only tight coupling 
of
   components - but totally ignoring good OOP practice and mixing 
the
   business and presentation tiers. Add to that the fact that now 
the
   dataProvider can only have the one view, the actual grid to 
which it
   is set.
   
   Can someone point out what I am missing here or make any points 
why 
  my
   thoughts are incorrect? 
   
   So far, it's a great book but that chapter really threw me off.
   
   -Kenny/LIR
  
  
  
  I'm not sure that's that's ignoring good OOP practice but it 
  certainly does mix the business and presentation tiers.  
  
  I have been doing this since Flex 1.5 for the ComboBox, List, 
  DataGrid and Tree components.  I first extended each these to 
create 
  generic components that implement Flash Remoting, some standard 
  contextmenus, drag and drop, security/privilege checking and 
dispatch 
  events when remoting calls return.  Then I extend these and point 
the 
  RemoteObject source to the specific CFC that retrieves the data 
from 
  the database.  
  
  For instance I have a RemotingComboBase class that extends the 
  ComboBox class and I have an EmployeeComboBox class that extends 
the 
  RemotingComboBase.  I have several applications that need to use 
an 
  EmployeeComboBox, so when I need one I just have to drag it onto 
the 
  form and go on to the next component.  I also have an 
EmployeeList 
  class when I want to display a list of employees.  Both of these 
  components have their RemoteObject source pointed at the same 
CFC.  
  Obviously if I'm using both of these components on the same form 
I am 
  retrieving and storing this information twice but it's worth it 
to me 
  for the ease and speed of development that I've gained.  Also I 
don't 
  normally have the need to display the same data in different 
views 
  within the same application. 
  
  I don't view this as much different than the Flex example of a 
  StateComboBox that always displays a list of hardcoded US states.

[flexcoders] VERY interesting title button behaviour! (??)

2007-03-23 Thread Danko Kozar

I have decorated the TitleWindow CloseButton with custom CSS:

close-button-up-skin: Embed
(../images/resizable_window/window_close_up.png);
close-button-over-skin: Embed
(../images/resizable_window/window_close_over.png);   
close-button-down-skin: Embed
(../images/resizable_window/window_close_down.png);
close-button-disabled-skin: Embed
(../images/resizable_window/window_close_disabled.png);

So, now it looks like this: 
http://www.dkozar.com/images/bugs/title_window_close_button_1.gif

When I roll over it, it looks like: 
http://www.dkozar.com/images/bugs/title_window_close_button_2.gif

OK for now...

But the problem is:

When I move a mouse way below the button: 
http://www.dkozar.com/images/bugs/title_window_close_button_3.gif

There is a tiny invisible strip 1px wide which seems to ba a part 
of the button. When I rollOver it, this is what happens: 
http://www.dkozar.com/images/bugs/title_window_close_button_4.gif

So, can anyone tell me what's this strip anyway and how to get rid 
of it:

???

ps. I'm sure that my PNGs are 16x16px.

Re: [flexcoders] Relative paths in CSS embeds?

2007-03-23 Thread Michael Schmalle


Ah,

You are using a compiled theme? That is what it looks like.

So what I am getting at is, are you trying to access a gif inside an swc?

If you are trying to access embedded content inside an swc you need the
theme compiler arg in your apps config.

either in the flex buider compiler args;

-theme src/lib/theme.swc

or you could create a config xml file that does the same thing.

Sounds to me like I am confused as to what you are actually doing.

Where are you compiling the theme.swc? and is the contents of the swc
located in the theme.css?

Give me a bit more info and I can help. I struggled with this for months
getting the right set up. I use ant to build my components now. Much more
control.

Peace, Mike

  Hi Mike,

I'm curious about your project structure, because I've been trying this
but to no avail.

I have:

Theme
  src
theme.css

App
  src
app.mxml
lib
   theme.swc

So if app.mxml contains the mx:style tag, I would think the path you
wrote should work.  On the other hand if the embeds are actually contained
in the theme swc, then I would guess the path would be relative to the css
location.  Maybe if I follow your example mine will work too.

[flexcoders] Adding Flash Library items to a Flex App

2007-03-23 Thread Andy Parker


Ok, this should be simple but like all things critical to my flash projects
they end up being hacks or major work-arounds. Essentially, I need to add a
Flash Library item (set to export as a default class in Flash 9 Preview) -
to my Flex application. I won't go into why but just consider the need for
Flash interface for graphics creation a requirement for now. Seeing as this
was no big deal (attachMovieClip in as2) before how would i go about this in
as3/Flex? Please provide example - not just theory, if you can as I've
almost read every theory/method out there but no up to date examples and
nothing my designer brain can grasp.

Here's what im doing so far.
- Created a flash movie with a graphic movieclip set to export on first
frame / class name as default of name of movieclip - this object doesn not
live on stage but in the library (unless the workflow needs to change but
i'd rather it not as there will be other objects to load in as well)
- Using the Image class to load in swf. All is good so far.
- So how do actualy add a child of this swf (one of the classes compiled in
this swf) to a member of my Application?

Heres what i was thinking i could do -

var myLibObject:Image = new Image();
myLibObject.source = packages/MyLibrary.swf;
myCanvas.addChild(myLibObject.Circle); // Circle is a library item/class in
the flash library / Obviously this doesn't work but not sure how classes
within the flash document class are referenced

[flexcoders] Compiling themes / modules / CSS using Flex Builder?

Hi All,

I have been able to use the command-line compilers to compile themes, modules,

missing something?

Is it even possible? If so, can anyone point me to a step-by-step example?

RE: [flexcoders] Project Build

Hi,

 

In order for your script to be noticed by the syntax checker, you have
to reference it from the main MXML / AS file. If your AS file is nested
deep in packages with no reference, there is no way to force the check. 

 

Cheers,

Petro

[flexcoders] support for IFrames and cross domain images

2007-03-23 Thread vippanso

Is there an extended support for IFrame and cross domain images in
flex 2.0.1, As per my knowledge Iframe can only be used via
Javascript, but my requirement is to create Iframes dynamically .i.e i
dont know exactly how many Iframes i may eventually need, and also
need to get images dynamically from different domains.

Please post if you have come across any tweaks for the above.

[flexcoders] Re: Event Dispatching through more than one component

2007-03-23 Thread qnotemedia

Argh!  It worked!

So all I had to do actually was set useCapture in the 
systemManager.addEventListener to true, and it worked right away.  Is 
bubbling then set to true by default?

Also, should I be in the habit of removing the listener when popups 
are removed?  I've been noticing that in other code I've looked at 
online.

Thanks Alex!  Makes a whole lot more sense now!

 The event model in Flash/Flex is based on the DOM event model
 http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/events.html
 
 If you search for bubbling and capture in our docs you'll find 
easier to
 read descriptions.
 
  
 
 But basically, when PopUp2 dispatches an non-bubbling event, the 
stage
 first dispatches the event in capture phase, then the SystemManager 
in
 capture phase, then PopUp2 as a regular event.
 
 If the event was a bubbling event, the same would happen, but then
 SystemManager would dispatch it again in bubbling phase and finally 
the
 Stage in bubbling phase.
 
  
 
 addEventListener has a parameter as to whether you want to listen in
 capture phase or not.  Events have a constructor parameter as to 
whether
 the event bubbles or not.  Capture phase basically allows 
containers to
 supervise and block events going to their children.  Bubble phase 
serves
 as notification that the child dispatched an event.
 
  
 
 In theory this makes the Popups even more loosely coupled from each
 other than the other suggestions.  Each Popup simply dispatches 
events.
 Other code can capture all events coming from popups (yes, it has to
 know what the event name is).  Popups can listen to other popups 
without
 having to watch for their creation and destruction since you are 
going
 to addEventListener on systemManager instead of the actual popups.

If I remember it correctly, in daoFlex you can specify

1. Adds optional String parameter to the signature - usually xml or

2. Transfers original sql + additional param to your method along with

Makes very comfortable way to generalize query on any field[s].

Also, make sure you look at dao.xsl in the templates - that also might

   Evening folks,
  
   I finished reading a chapter in the new book, RIAs with Flex and
  Java.
   Specifically, I was reading Chapter 11: Advanced Datagrid which
   introduces the concept of a destination aware component which
  contains
   calls to a remote object embedded in the extended component's MXML
  code.
  
   Although the destination and method are passed to the component in
   compile time attributes, this smells of not only tight coupling of
   components - but totally ignoring good OOP practice and mixing the
   business and presentation tiers. Add to that the fact that now the
   dataProvider can only have the one view, the actual grid to which it
   is set.
  
   Can someone point out what I am missing here or make any points why
  my
   thoughts are incorrect?
  
   So far, it's a great book but that chapter really threw me off.
  
   -Kenny/LIR
  
 
  I'm not sure that's that's ignoring good OOP practice but it
  certainly does mix the business and presentation tiers.
 
  I have been doing this since Flex 1.5 for the ComboBox, List,
  DataGrid and Tree components. I first extended each these to create
  generic components that implement Flash Remoting, some standard
  contextmenus, drag and drop, security/privilege checking and dispatch
  events when remoting calls return. Then I extend these and point the
  RemoteObject source to the specific CFC that retrieves the data from
  the database.
 
  For instance I have a RemotingComboBase class that extends the
  ComboBox class and I have an EmployeeComboBox class that extends the
  RemotingComboBase. I have several applications that need to use an
  EmployeeComboBox, so when I need one I just have to drag it onto the
  form and go on to the next component. I also have an EmployeeList
  class when I want to display a list of employees. Both of these
  components have their RemoteObject source pointed at the same CFC.
  Obviously if I'm using both of these components on the same form I am
  retrieving and storing this information twice but it's worth it to me
  for the ease and speed of development that I've gained. Also I don't
  normally have the need to display the same data in different views
  within the same application.
 
  I don't view this as much different than the Flex example of a
  StateComboBox that always displays a list of hardcoded US states.

[flexcoders] How to asynchronously dispatch an event

2007-03-23 Thread pgp.coppens

Hello,

I am designing an api that manages a data model. Some of the methods
on the data model will trigger a server service (HTTPService), and
will therefore be handled asynchronously (no choice there). Other
actions, not going to the server, would be synchronous. 

I would like to give the user of the api a consistent (asynchronous)
view of the api but I can not seem to create asynchronous behavior. 

dispatchEvent seems to always synchronously invoke registered event
handlers.

Is there a way to have a class method trigger an asynchronous event?

Thanks in advance,

Peter

[flexcoders] Disabling items in a DataGrid

2007-03-23 Thread not_a_coop

There may be a better way to achieve what I'm trying to do, I'm open
to any suggestions.

I have a DataGrid with a few columns showing basic information. When
an item in the DataGrid is clicked, I would like a panel to drop down
so that users have access to more detailed information that they can
view modify. I would basically like selected item in the DataGrid to
appear as a header for this panel, and all other items to be
disabled so that  the user can not select more than one item at a time.

I have tried to achieve this by displaying the panel when an item is
clicked and then disabling the entire DataGrid. However, I can find no
way to change the style of the selected row when the DataGrid is
disabled. It shows with a gray background and white text which does
not achieve the effect I'm going for.

Any suggestions on a better way to handle this or a way to skin the
selected item for a disabled DataGrid?

Re: [flexcoders] Disabling items in a DataGrid

2007-03-23 Thread Adam Royle

I had a similar design issue. The way I solved my problem was:

1. Allow for multiple-selects/edits, so I can edit more than one row at once. 
This involved some code to compare the data between the selectedIndices. I have 
checkboxes next to each input control which have their visibility determined by 
the number of selectedIndices.
2. If the user starts to edit some data in the bottom inputs, then selects a 
different row, a popup box is show which confirms the selection change (and 
loss of edited data).

I wish I could show my app as an example but unfortunately it's not yet ready 
for public consumption.

2007-03-23 Thread shawn.gibson

Hi Guys, I'm using the CF/Flex Wizard at this stage to build my 
database queries, and while it does a great job, if you massage it a 
bit, it still has a major problem in that it, if you are running 
multiple queries, and something goes wrong with one, you have to 
redo the entire Wizard, and I've had problems moving locations, with 
errors thereafter generated in the .as areas of the generated files.

The best answer seems to be a decent understanding of the CRUD CFC 
wizard, but the Adobe documentation, for all it's positive values, 
just doesn't have anything on using the CRUD wizard...nothing that 
goes from point A to point Z and shows you how to build a simple 
CRUD-Wizard-driven app in Flex. As in, create the CRUD CFC, use this 
code in your flex app, make a table with these attributes, point 
this to that...tag this TextArea or DataGrid with this data 
provider, use this method in a button when you click it to fire the 
whole thing off...that sort of thing. Of course I mean only at a 
simple level for all 4 actions (read, write, edit, delete).

Does anyone know of such an offering anywhere? I've looked as much 
as I can, not found anything yet.

If I can find a simple version that works front-to-back, I can learn 
the more advanced stuff from there, but trying to learn it all from 
scratch is always a very hard thing for me...

Squidhead works well for building the CFC's automatically.

 

http://squidhead.riaforge.org/

 

It introspects the DB and creates all your CFC to do single record
manipulation and also creates CFC's for any procedures you create.

[flexcoders] Re: Caching problem

2007-03-23 Thread slangeberg


Much better approach!

Now, my question is, what do people do to prevent caching of swf files
themselves?

Here's the setup: I'm deploying a business app, and want all users to see
the update to the SWF. However, I don't want to tell everyone to clear their
cache. Should I just pass a version number to the swf request, to update to
that point, ie - point to:

$vers = 1.0.2;

$path = /flash/myMovie.swf?vers= . $vers;

object file=$path...etc.

Is there a best practice for this kind of thing? I'm also curious how this
will apply to Module development in Flex. How do I make sure that people
have current modules, without blasting their cache, every time?

Thanks,

-Scott

 That'll work with any cache-busting you need to do. I use it in testing,
 to
 un-cache the swf file itself, when viewed on server. Ie: send rand var
in
 url and if it's present, pass it in to swf call (swfobject + php, here):

 var so = new SWFObject( ProductBuilder.swf?rand=?=$rand?,
 product_builder, 100%, 100%, 9, #FF);

 Saves me the 'pain' of going through some menu to clear browser's cache,
 not

2007-03-23 Thread Cutter (Flex Related)

Shawn,

I did a review of the RDS Plugins not long after FB was released. While 
it is a handy tool to get you 85%-90% of the way, it is limited in that 
it doesn't handle on the fly changes to db architecture, requiring you 
to re-run the wizard. Some people place their independent logic, 
additional queries, etc. in separate CFCs, extending those created by 
the wizard. In doing this you keep all of your code whenever you re-run 
the wizard. Others don't use the wizards at all, but will use an ORM 
framework, like Reactor, that will automatically rebuild objects on the 
fly whenever the architecture has changed (within development mode), in 
conjunction with ColdSpring's AOP capabilities for generating remote 
facade components for the remoting calls.

Thanks John, that looks very promising. But it still leaves me in 
the same place as running the Flex/CF CRUD wizard - it doesn't 
really give me any instructions on how to get it to communicate with 
Flex, all the fancy stuff I need to learn for getting the 2 apps to 
talk with each other.

In other words, something like the Flex 2 equivalent of this 
tutorial (albeit with a bit more text!) would be very beneficial I 
think:

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/guestbook_print.html

I'll probably end up using Squidhead over the Wizard though:) Thanks

Re: [flexcoders] How to asynchronously dispatch an event

2007-03-23 Thread John Mark Hawley

Why would it matter for the API whether or not event dispatching was 
asynchronous? Clients still listen for events and hear them; the only 
difference would be that the stack would get taller on the sync calls.

If you *really* needed to make ape async behavior, you could have the sync 
methods use a doLater() method to wait a frame before broadcasting an event.

 Subject: [flexcoders] How to asynchronously  dispatch an event
 
 Hello,
 
 I am designing an api that manages a data model. Some of the methods
 on the data model will trigger a server service (HTTPService), and
 will therefore be handled asynchronously (no choice there). Other
 actions, not going to the server, would be synchronous. 
 
 I would like to give the user of the api a consistent (asynchronous)
 view of the api but I can not seem to create asynchronous behavior. 
 
 dispatchEvent seems to always synchronously invoke registered event
 handlers.
 
 Is there a way to have a class method trigger an asynchronous event?
 
 Thanks in advance,
 
 Peter

[flexcoders] Can't add objects to a new Apollo window


I have an Apollo app that I want to make open another window and load a
module into it.

I'm following the instructions from this page...
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Apollo:Documentation:Working_with_windows#Creating_windows

I can make the new window appear, but nothing ever shows up in it.

I then used the createNewWindow() method from the page above and that worked
fine.  It created a new window and showed a nice graphic in it.

I then tried just adding a Label to that window by doing the following bit
of code:
var label:Label = new Label();
label.text = Test Label;
label.x = 10;
label.y = 10;
newWindow.stage.addChild(label);


However, that didn't add the Label to the window.

I had previously tried adding a new ModuleLoader to the new window.  I added
event listeners to the ModuleLoader and it seemed to be loading the module,
and then added the module to the child property of the ModuleLoader.
However, just like the label, nothing appeared in the new Apollo window.

Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated.

http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/events.html 
 
 If you search for bubbling and capture in our docs you'll find 
easier to
 read descriptions.
 
 
 
 But basically, when PopUp2 dispatches an non-bubbling event, the 
stage
 first dispatches the event in capture phase, then the SystemManager 
in
 capture phase, then PopUp2 as a regular event.
 
 If the event was a bubbling event, the same would happen, but then
 SystemManager would dispatch it again in bubbling phase and finally 
the
 Stage in bubbling phase.
 
 
 
 addEventListener has a parameter as to whether you want to listen in
 capture phase or not. Events have a constructor parameter as to 
whether
 the event bubbles or not. Capture phase basically allows 
containers to
 supervise and block events going to their children. Bubble phase 
serves
 as notification that the child dispatched an event.
 
 
 
 In theory this makes the Popups even more loosely coupled from each
 other than the other suggestions. Each Popup simply dispatches 
events.
 Other code can capture all events coming from popups (yes, it has to
 know what the event name is). Popups can listen to other popups 
without
 having to watch for their creation and destruction since you are 
going
 to addEventListener on systemManager instead of the actual popups.

 OK, I understood the other responses, but not this one. Agreed that 
I 
 tried setting bubbles to true in my customEvent, and then each

 instance, and the dispatched event did not pass through embedded

[flexcoders] The last Date I'll ever go on

2007-03-23 Thread Brian Holmes

I'm having trouble encoding a date for use in a WebService.

If I take the date out, the webservice call works. When I  put it in, it
breaks. Has anybody had a similar experience?

I'm assuming this is a formatting problem, and have tried formatting it
a hundred different ways. 

 

 

The actual service call doesn't happen with the date because the error
happens within flex. The actual error is the one of my personal favs:

 

   Input string was not in a correct format

 

I've tried it typed as a string, and I get a null reference. 

The type on the wsdl definition is dateTime

 

Any Friday Date tips are welcome!

 

Thanks,

[flexcoders] Re: How to asynchronously dispatch an event

2007-03-23 Thread pgp.coppens

Thanks for your reply Mark

 Why would it matter for the API whether or not event dispatching was
asynchronous? Clients still listen for events and hear them; the only
difference would be that the stack would get taller on the sync calls.


The main reason is that I want to give the user of the api the
ability to add some custom information to the return value of the data
model call and make that available in the callback (much like one can
add 'stuff' to the AsyncToken returned from e.g. an HTTPService
invocation).

 If you *really* needed to make ape async behavior, you could have
the sync methods use a doLater() method to wait a frame before
broadcasting an event.

Thanks for the doLater() pointer. I can only find info on
UIModel.doLater() in the 1.5 docs of flex. Has something changed in
2.0 in that context.


Again, I appreciate people taking the time to get be bootstrapped with
flex.

[flexcoders] Re: How to asynchronously dispatch an event

2007-03-23 Thread jason_williams_mm

You can do this with a timer.  There is also an undocumented 
unsupported class in the rpc package that does this as well, but, 
*use it at your own risk*

import mx.rpc.AsyncDispatcher;

new AsyncDispatcher(myEventDispatchMethod, [myEvent], 10);

It basically takes a method closure and a list of arguments to pass 
to that method along with the delay in milliseconds before calling 
the closure.

I had previously tried adding a new ModuleLoader to the new window. I
added event listeners to the ModuleLoader and it seemed to be loading the

[flexcoders] Re: Data Binding Issue

2007-03-23 Thread madhukiranm


Hi Tom,

Here is the code for the custom component. It contains two arraylists.
dataItems and selectedItems. dataItems is the complete set of list for
which the check boxes should be generated. selectedItems is the list
which has the items (checkboxes) to be selected. The user will send a
list of completeList of items (dataItems) and a selected list of items
from the main MXML.

//Code for the Custom Component

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml

//Assume that I will get a list of Items (checkBoxes in this case) to be
created

completeList = ..

}

]]

/mx:Script

view:MultipleOptionsCheckBoxView dataItems={completeList}
selectedItems={selectedList}/

/mx:Application

I am binding completeList to dataItems and selectedList to
selectedItems. My ultimate goal is, if the developer passes a list of
selectedList then the checkboxes should be selected (after creation)
based on the items the developer passed. If the developer doesn't pass
anything, then when ever a user selects a list of items, they should be
available to the developer in the local variable selectedList (as there
is a binding). I think you understoood my requirement. Everything works
fine for me except when the selectedList (local variable in the
Main.mxml) is not initialized. If I initialize this local variable, then
the binding works fine (both sides). If I have a list of selectedList,
then also the binding works. The only problem is when the selectedList
is null. If I initialize the variable in the custom component (when it
is null) the binding fails. I dont want to use mx:Binding tag (which
also works fine in all situations)...

Let me know if I miss anythingor confused you a lot..

 supervise and block events going to their children. Bubble phase 
serves
 as notification that the child dispatched an event.
 
 
 
 In theory this makes the Popups even more loosely coupled from each
 other than the other suggestions. Each Popup simply dispatches 
events.
 Other code can capture all events coming from popups (yes, it has to
 know what the event name is). Popups can listen to other popups 
without
 having to watch for their creation and destruction since you are 
going
 to addEventListener on systemManager instead of the actual popups.

 OK, I understood the other responses, but not this one. Agreed that 
I 
 tried setting bubbles to true in my customEvent, and then each

RE: [flexcoders] Preloading a tilelist of images?

There's no option for TileList to pre-fetch.

 

If you know the thumbnails and they won't change, you can always embed
them and use a different itemRenderer that assumes the images are
embedded.  Then they are guaranteed to be there when the app starts up,
but that can slow download and startup time.

 

You can copy bmp data if you want as well.

 

Depending on how fast you need it, remember that in most cases, once
you fetch an image, it will be in the browser cache so the second fetch
is pretty fast.  So, you can always just have hidden loaders that load
them once just to prime the browser cache.

What would be the preferred method of preloading a tilelist of
thumbnails (could contain many thumbs)

When I receive the list of thumb urls, should I create background
image components to load them into and then access their bmp data for
the actual tilelist display?

Or is there a way in the tilelist to prefetch stuff?

[flexcoders] DataGrid header question - need help on Styles

2007-03-23 Thread Mike Anderson

Hello All,

Is there a style available, that would virtually eliminate the dividing
line between each Column Header?

Just imagine a multi-column DataGrid, but having just ONE huge rectangle
which spans the length of the entire Grid encapsulating the Headers.

You can do this on the DataGrid itself, by turning off the Vertical
Gridlines - and this is the same look I am trying to attain for the
Headers.

Thanks in advance, for any information you can throw my way.

Mike

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Module issue

I'm starting to think you are trying to use flex components which are
built in actionscript and run only on the client in your server code.
If that's true, then sorry, you can't run actionscript swc code on a
server.

RE: [flexcoders] Basic question

Each mxml file is its own document and has its own variable scope.
Therefore there is no property definied in OptionsFiche.mxml, it is

parentDocument is usually the answer.

[flexcoders] ArrayCollection problem (binding to a Datagrid)

2007-03-23 Thread Nicolas Boulet-Lavoie

Hi,

When I try to bind an empty ArrayCollection or with only 1 item to a
Datagrid, I'm getting a runtime error (sorry it's in french but the
error number means something in this case):

TypeError: Error #1034: Echec de la contrainte de type : conversion de

impossible.

Here's the code I use :

private function handler(event:ResultEvent):void {
   grilleTerrainsACDP = event.result.terrains.terrain;
}

And the grilleTerrainsACDP variable who's binded to my datagrid, as
the data provider, is declared this way:

[Bindable] public var grilleTerrainsACDP:ArrayCollection;

Any idea?
