[flexcoders] RESOLVED: VerifyError: Error #1053

[Jim Robson]

The issue was resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling Flex Builder.
Before resorting to this, I tried the following (without success,
obviously): 

1. Cleaned the workspace (multiple times)
2. Closed and restarted Flex Builder (multiple times)
3. Closed and reopened the project
4. Deleted and recreated the project
5. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Flash players
6. Shut down and restarted my laptop

[flexcoders] Is it possible for Flex Builder to echo the mxmlc.exe command it uses ?

[helihobby]

How can I see ( if any ) the mxmlc.exe args that Flex Builder is using 
when I tell it to compile using the GUI ( Right Click -> Compile ).

I wanna right a mxmlc script but need to see first what Flex Builder is 
using.

Thanks for the help,

[flexcoders] Help! - certain portions of text disappear when printing from Flex App

[Mike Anderson]

Hello All, this is one of the most frustrating problems I think I ever
had to deal with...

Instead of creating an invisible container which properly lays out all
my printable elements, I went and created a WYSIWYG mock-up of the final
elements to be printed.  This way, once the user is satisfied with what
he/she sees on the screen, they can be confident that this will be what
comes out on the printer.  For ease of use, I placed my PrintControl
inside of a drag able & sizeable TitleWindow - so the user can Pan and
Zoom the content around.

With that said, I am experiencing some issues with my Text disappearing
- specifically at certain Zoom Levels.  And it's ALWAYS the last Word in
a Sentence.  I am not sure why this is happening, and why it only
happens at certain Zoom Levels, but it's becoming increasingly
frustrating for me and my users.

Quick FYI, I am using the  control to display my text.  I am
considering using a different control, and rendering it all as HTML - so
I don't have to create all these unique Styles, due to the text being so
different in so many places.

Just in case my problems had to do with Fonts, and any related issues
that go along with Fonts, I went ahead and embedded all my Fonts as well
as turning on the "FlashType" option.

I have my Anti-Aliasing settings set to maximum, and I tried both
"Pixel" and "Sub-Pixel" settings in hopes of that having a positive
effect.  In addition to this, I tried playing with all the
"FlexPrintJobScaleType" settings in case that was messing with my text.

Still, I get sporadic results - as well as getting different results on
*different computers*.

Could somebody please offer any words of wisdom as to why this may be
happening?

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer,

Mike

RE: [flexcoders] Re: HELP! How to get a subnode in such a XML data?

[Tracy Spratt]

Yes, always do this:

trace(myXML.toXMLString())

 

the ordinary toString(), which trace uses, does not handle single xml
nodes correctly.

It's my fault.

It do work actually. To my strange, the trace command outuput nothing 
of a single xml node without any child.

 

RE: [flexcoders] Communication of data between parent and child movie.

[Tracy Spratt]

And if loose coupling is not a key issue for you, you can simply access
public members in the loaded swf using the "content" property of
SWFLoader.  If you are loading appliations, use SWFLoader, not Image.

 

Access top level application members using Application.application.

 

You will need to listen for the complete event of the loader and the
APPLICATION_COMPLETE event of the loaded app before you can access
properties via the "content" property:



 

  /** runs when SWFLoader content has all downloaded */

  private function onCompleteAppLoader(oEvent:Event):void

  {

var smAppLoaded:SystemManager =
SystemManager(oEvent.target.content);

smAppLoaded.addEventListener(FlexEvent.APPLICATION_COMPLETE,
onCurrentApplicationComplete)

//vbMask.visible = false;

  }//onCompleteAppLoader

  

  /** runs when the app loaded in the SWFLoader has completed
initialization

  *   and is ready for any access (applicationComplete event)

  */

  private function onCurrentApplicationComplete(oEvent:Event):void

  {

_appLoaded = Application(oEvent.target.application);

_sAppLoadedUrl = _appLoaded.url

var iPosLastPathDelimiter:int = _sAppLoadedUrl.lastIndexOf("\\");

if (iPosLastPathDelimiter == -1)  {

  iPosLastPathDelimiter = _sAppLoadedUrl.lastIndexOf("/");

}

_sAppLoadedName =
_sAppLoadedUrl.substring(iPosLastPathDelimiter+1,_sAppLoadedUrl.lastInde
xOf("."));

  }//onCurrentApplicationComplete

  

  /**  */

  public function showProgress(oEvent:Event):void

  {

var sBytesLoaded:String = oEvent.target.bytesLoaded;

var sBytesTotal:String = oEvent.target.bytesTotal;

_nLoadProgress = (sBytesLoaded/sBytesTotal) * 100;

lbLoading.alpha = 1/_nLoadProgress * 10;

if (_nLoadProgress == 100)  {

  lbLoading.visible = false;

  lbLoading.alpha = 1; 

}

 

  } //showProgress

Using the inbuilt event dispatching system is your best bet.

That way you can have your parent(s) and child(s) loosely coupled.

 

There are particular design patterns that also deal with this issue.

Personally i like the combination of DataBinding,
ModelLocator(Singleton) and Commands, ala Cairngorm :)

Hi everyone,

Currently I have to write a Flex application that holds other swf 
application within it (I will have a skeleton swf movie with menu on 
the left hand side and when a menu item is clicked, the corresponding

control).

The problem is that how can we propagate information from the child 
movie to the parent movie and vice versa? Say the sub movie does the 
login procedure and return the authentication information, how can I 
pass this information to the parent movie so that it can be used to 
control the access given to this particular user?

[flexcoders] Re: Flex: Modular Applications

[Russell Munro]

I have worked a-lot with modules in recent months & there is one great
way I have found to manage modules that is more predicable, easier to
handler & far nicer on memory than any other means I can find. Don't
remove the module! Once you have loaded the module store it in a
variable and when you need it again get the one you have already
loaded. Its simple and it works.

Depending on when you were checking the Mac you may be able to get  
that Mac even cheaper since they bumped up the specs that morning.   
I'm not sure about the games, I haven't played a PC game for years,  
but if they would work OK with the integrated 950 chipset then it  
should be fine. Although you'd have to boot directly into Windows to  
make use of the acceleration, for now. Also I would highly recommend  
you DON"T buy the extra ram from apple. You can pick it up from  
crucial.com or newegg.com for a lot cheaper.   It's cake to install a  
new HD or RAM on the MacBook also which is nice, both are accessible

RE: [flexcoders] Date - Timezone with WS

[Peter Farland]

ActionScript 3 Dates are actually "DateTime" instances and always have a
timezone. Dates are always shown in the local timezone in Flash, this
isn't Flex specific. You have to use the UTC specific accessors in
ActionScript to get the time in UTC / Zulu / GMT time. There is no
record of the original timezone that was used to construct the Date.
 
Serialization formats often send dateTime information in UTC to keep
things simple - either endpoint can adjust the time on display as
necessary.
 
Note that there are a few bugs in how timezone-less date, time and
dateTime XML Schema types are handled in Flex WebService that should be
fixed in the new implementation of Flex SDK 2.0.1 Hotfix 2 which is due
out soon. However, this isn't necessarily related to your dateTime as it
has a timezone specified.

Subject: [flexcoders] Date - Timezone with WS



Hello,

I have a WS that returns a date. Our server is in EDT.
Using Charles to sniff the date: 2007-05-15T00:00:00-04:00

When debugging the resultset in Flex, it appears that Flex has ignored
TZ info passed and has applied the client's TZ to the date..! 

(I changed my PC's TZ to GMT and the TZ offset in the resultset gets
changed accordingly, even though the server is still passing -04:00!!!)

Has anyone come up with a good work-around / fix for this... (I'm
still in shock on this one...)

Thanks for the help!
Paul



 

Re: [flexcoders] Date - Timezone with WS

[Kelly Birr]

Paul,

I gave up making sense of the way Flex 2 handles dates from web services 
almost a year ago and stated passing them as strings.  I brought this up 
many times during the beta and since then and have never seen a good 
solution for getting Flex to stop mucking with the timezone. 

The other big problem with the Date class in AS3 is that it is a 
reference type and cannot be directly compared using ==.  You have to us 
an external date compare function or compare the individual components 
of both dates (after checking that neither one is null). 

I've been using strings for all date related processing in flex for 
about 9 months and it's been perfect.

Re: [flexcoders] Filtering Best Practices Question

[Bjorn Schultheiss]

With a complex objects list this is difficult.
I would suggest doing it server side.

If the lists contained numerical or string items  you could rely on  
sorting to make your iteration process shorter.

What's the best practice when you have to compare two large lists? My
main list is 9000 objects long. I have to compare this to another
list which might have 4000 objects in it.

Right now I'm doing it the WRONG way. For each row in the Main list i
iterate through every item in the 4000 objects. As soon as I hit a
match I return a true and that exits the iteration. This is still a
very slow process.

Both lists are dynamic.

Any ideas on the right way to do this?

Re: [flexcoders] Equivalent of Application.application.globalVar in a Module

[Bjorn Schultheiss]

Without testing, i'm pretty sure even parentApplication refers to  
Application so you might be out of luck.
You could have a shell singleton and then register each module  
singleton via a string reference.
so you could use something like var s:ModuleSingleton =  
ShellSingleton.getInstance().getSingleton('module1');

registerSingleton();
removeSingleton();
hasSingleton();

Thats one solution, perhaps not the most elegant.

Re: [flexcoders] Communication of data between parent and child movie.

[Bjorn Schultheiss]

Using the inbuilt event dispatching system is your best bet.
That way you can have your parent(s) and child(s) loosely coupled.

There are particular design patterns that also deal with this issue.
Personally i like the combination of DataBinding, ModelLocator 
(Singleton) and Commands, ala Cairngorm :)

I think the blue-green background is set in your application scope.
For example if you set Application.backgorundColor to #FF you

Re: [flexcoders] Why no scroll bar?

[Bjorn Schultheiss]

I think its due to the way your application swf is inserted into the

It might pay to create a container within  that has

That way you will still get your application scope scroll bars when  
the window is resized below 1024 width.

[Bjorn Schultheiss]

you can refer to your mxml-manifest.xml file found in the {FlexSDK}/

that way you can use xmlns:myComps="http://whatever.com/mxml/";

So basically you set your compiler to also read your new manifest file.

Nate,

Thank you for the quick response!! :)

I did not know you could implement a WS call the way you do, very
cool, although unless Im understanding it improperly, I dont think it
will work for me. Please correct me if I am misinterpreting how your
way works.

You do ws.getMyFunction(firstName, lastName, city) .. for instance,
and your webservice gets the data in an expected size and format,
right? It goes, param1 is the firstname, param2 is the lastname, and
param3 is the city. No definition involved but it is still finite. 

What I need to do is have a flexible structure in my xml to have an
infinite amount tags inside certain blocks. 

So sometimes I might pass and xml that looks like this:


FirstName
LastName
San Diego


and sometimes I need to send this:


FirstName
LastName
San Diego
Chicago
New York


If I pass in the parameters as you have, I have no way to denote the
beginning and end of that section that contains 'n' number of elements.

Does that make sense? I know it's hairy :) I really want to keep the
XML structure. I think if I did it your way, I could pass in a ton of
parameters as key/value pairs and build the xml on the other side...
like.. ws.getMyFunction(firstname, Bill, lastname, Smith, city1,
Chicago) ... but man, then I have to dissect the nice XML object that
Flex gives you to work with.

[flexcoders] How to special characters in resource bundle .properties file

[Brian Morearty]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to put special characters such as a line feed or
double quotation mark in a resource bundle .properties file?

I've tried various methods of escaping the special characters. Nothing
works.

The following all result in compile-time errors in the generated code:

label=this is in "quotes"
label=this is in \u0022quotes\u0022
label=this is in \"quotes\"
label=this is on a \nnew line
label=this is on a \u000anew line

The following don't result in a compiler error, but the text is shown
literally in the UI (no special character translation if I set the UI
element's text property instead of its htmlText property):

label=this is in "quotes"
label=this is on a 
new line

Any ideas?

RE: [flexcoders] finding and removing nodes from xml

[Peter Farland]

Does something like this work (based on your original email)? The trick
is to loop over the XMLList backwards so that you don't have to correct
the index each time the list gets smaller from the delete operation.

var xmlList:XMLList = xml..*.(attribute("id") == "6" || attribute("id")
== "24");
for (var i:int = xmlList.length(); i >= 0; i--)
{
delete xmlList[i];
}

[flexcoders] ByteArray.readMultiByte bug on Macintosh?

[dario.drome]

Hi,
I have isolated a problem that appears only when a SWF (built using 
Flex 2.0.1) runs under Macintosh:

The flex application reads a binary data package (serialized on a 
windows server) using an URLLoader
In that binary stream the server serialize things like numbers, 
single bytes and strings.
All is OK with the de-serialization of the data except with strings. 
They are serialized in a very simple way: first a byte containing the 
string's length and, then, the characters stream encoded 
using "Windows-1252".
When the application tries to de-serialize such a string, it first 
read the string's length (ByteArray.readByte) and then, it tries to 
read the "string body" using ByteArray.readMultiByte() method.
The result: when the client is a windows box (using firefox or MSIE) 
there is not any problem. However, when the client is a Mac box (OSX 
10.4 with FireFox) readMultiByte gives a different result each time 
it de-serialize the (same) binary stream.

The function where the problem is isolated is the following:

public function readString(binData:ByteArray):String
{
   var str:String="";
   var length:int = binData.readUnsignedByte();
   str = binData.readMultiByte(length, "Windows-1252");
   return str;
}

I think that I could get rid of the problem by reading each single 
string's character and applying my self the conversion from Windows-
1252 to UTF-8, but I would like to rely on ByteArray.readMultiByte.

Have anybody out there found also this problem?
Perhaps it is not a problem and I am doing something in the wrong 
way, Could anybody help?

Thanks in advance.

Back in the ol days, Flash developers had to use recursion to parse

Basically I need to be able to look at every node and tell:

thanks peter, that using a literal delete...

if you delete node you've you tried to delete the new reference... how

[flexcoders] Re: WebService sending dynamic XML - problem

[Nate Pearson]

This is how I do it:
http://myurl/service.asmx?WSDL"; 
   useProxy="false"  showBusyCursor="true">




Then in action script I go ws.getMyFunction(param1, param2, param3).

You don't have to define your parameters in MXML.  If you don't, Flex
will let you send as many or as little parameters as you want.  I only
get an error if the amount of parameters that I send don't match the
type and number on the server side.

Hope this helps,

Nate

[flexcoders] WebService sending dynamic XML - problem

[discipl4]

Hi friends - I have been wrestling with a problem that I was hoping
you could help me out with :)

I understand the premise of defining a WebService in Flex, with
parameters and data, and sending the data over the wire to my WSDL. 
However, I have a unique situation where I want to assemble a dynamic
XML file and send it over a WebService.  Unless you define a 1 to 1
mapping of parameters in Flex to a WSDL, I cant find any way to make
this work.

Example:  This works just fine as an operation on a webservice - 


 
  {someStringVariable}
 


This is a 1 to 1 mapping of a parameter in Flex to my WSDL, which
expects 1 value called myParameter.

However, if I pass in an XML object, SOAP will change all of my < and
> to < and > to avoid breaking the SOAP envelope.  I understand
the need to do this, but I just cant find a way around it.

Example:

var myXMLObject:XML = ""


 
  {myXMLObject}
 


The resulting packet across the wire will be one
parameter(myparameter), with my XML as a string and all of the < and >
encoded to >...etc.  I have tried every hack I can think of and I
cant get this to work.  Has anyone else had experience using a
dynamically sized XML as the model for a webservice?

Any help is MUCH appreciated :)

Best Regards,

[flexcoders] Re: Parse Unknown XML Structure

[Nate Pearson]

I'm pretty new to XML in flex too.  I had about the exact same
question as you 30 min ago.

This link helped a lot:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Book_Parts&file=13_Working_with_XML_169_08.html

At the end it shows for..in and for each..in.  That should help you
walk through it.  Since you don't know anything about the XML I'm not
sure how you would get the walking started...

That link should help you learn until someone smarter answers :).

[flexcoders] Filtering Best Practices Question

[Nate Pearson]

What's the best practice when you have to compare two large lists?  My
main list is 9000 objects long.  I have to compare this to another
list which might have 4000 objects in it.  

Right now I'm doing it the WRONG way.  For each row in the Main list i
iterate through every item in the 4000 objects.  As soon as I hit a
match I return a true and that exits the iteration.  This is still a
very slow process.

Both lists are dynamic.

Any ideas on the right way to do this?

Thanks,

Nate

Re: [flexcoders] Flex on Vista?

[Kevin Newman]

You can get Flex to play nice with Vista Aero Glass by using a new 
version of Java with it (I can't remember if I manually installed a 
manifest file or not next to the javaw.exe file).

Basically, you'd set up your Flex shortcut like this:

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2\FlexBuilder.exe" -vm "C:\Program 
Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin\javaw.exe"

It's been a while since I ran it this way in Vista (I got rid of Vista 
for other reasons), but I do remember getting it to work this way. I'd 
bet that something similar would work for the Eclipse Plugin.

[flexcoders] Chart components, Continued - Mx Series Zoom effect issues not drawing all

[patricklemiuex]

(I just accidentally hit enter on yahoo and it posted my incomplete
message, d'oh!)

Here's my issue I have a panel that pops up on a resize effect... I
have a chart on this panel with a lot of data, using an mx:SeriesZoom,
sometimes the tween sets the floor not at 0, but at about 20 or
thirty, refreshing the data it draws correctly the second time.

I found a way around the issue by adding a startDelay to the the
SeriesZoom, however, this produces the chart to draw once right away
when it populates and then redraw when it animates after my starDelay
of 500 milliseconds.  I turned off the visibility of the area series,
but the SeriesZoom doesn't automatically turn the visibility on when
it starts, which is odd, shouldn't it?

Ok, so if I can't seem to dispatch an event from the SeriesZoom and
then  try to get the event.currentTarget.visible=true;how do I
make this animation work correctly?



Thanks,
Patrick

[flexcoders] Blue-Green Background color / image

[bsausser]

Tried LiveDocs: but flickers the blue-green color and/or image.
  styleName="plain"
   ... 

How can I set 1) my own color; 2) my own image; or 3) transparency 
where it will not flicker the blue-green background?

[flexcoders] How can I deselect ALL buttons on a ToggleButtonBar?

[Mike Anderson]

Hello All,

I am trying to figure out a way, to deselect all the Buttons belonging
to a ToggleButtonBar Control, and I am hitting a brick wall.

I tried looping through the DataProvider using getChildAt(x) and setting
each 'Button.selected' equal to 'false' - but all that does, is removes
the dark border surrounding the presently selected Button.  Technically
the button is still selected, and it's all the more obvious in my case,
since I have a lot of styles applied to the selected Button.

I even tried setting the selectedIndex to '-1' as well as 'null' - in
hopes of putting the ToggleButtonBar back into it's "first time loaded
state", and still nothing works.

Could anybody help?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

[flexcoders] Re: Flex on Mac

[fuad_kamal]

Since switching to mac I won't ever look back...

good deal?  There is no comparison...it's like comparing a formula one
race car to a family sedanapples to oranges...totally different
engineering & performance.  Mac is a Unix OS while Windows is a memory
hogging monstrosity...the OS itself takes up half your system
resources.  So your comparison of what you can get for the money is
way off...you need a lot more RAM, bigger hard drive, faster
processor, just to support the Windows OS.  For example, I got a Mac
mini with only 512 MB of RAM and it still runs faster than Windows
machines in our household with double the RAM.

For my current contract I have to run Windows due to some requirements
from the client (has nothing to do with what mac can or can't run), so
I am running XP on Parallels on my MacBook pro.  I have to admit,
having 3 Gig of ram is nice b/c I can dedicate a full 1.5 gig to
Windows.  Windows XP on my macbook pro actually runs FASTER than on my
Windows laptop, which I am now donating to my kids b/c w/the Macbook
pro I no longer have any need to have a windows box on my desk. 
Honestly when I am not working on this contract I shut down parallels
and never use it for any other purpose - Mac more than fullfills all
my needs.  I run Flex builder on both platforms, only difference is
that you can't break the panels apart onto mutliple monitors on Mac,
that's due to a limitation in Eclipse on Mac.

I also run all the CS3 apps on my mac, they run even better than the
CS2, which seemed plenty fast; the fact that CS2 was running through
Rosetta wasn't noticeable at all, but then again, my machine does have
3 gig of RAM...

btw you can get a discount on your mac (10-15%) by going through the
AppleStore rather than getting it online, if you open a business
account, otherwise if you're a student or instructor you can get an
academic discount.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex on Vista?

[camlinaeizerous]

I grabbed Vista Ultimate when it was released. I'm running a custom
built liquid computer at home and the nice aero glass theme etc and
some of the flashy stuff is quite nice running on it. Flex was a non
issue to install and get running.

CF MX7 wasn't exactly strait forward though as you need to change a
few things to get it to work properly on IIS7. I spent a while
browsing trying different things to get it to work properly and I wish
I kept a list of everything I had to do to get it to run properly
because there wasn't a single lone fix that worked I had to combine
them all together.

Vista has its own set of issues like the voice recognition
vulnerability where audio played over the speakers can be picked up by
the voice recognition executing voice commands form the audio file.
This is and isn't a vulnerability but every where I see it brought up
it is a vulnerability and not a feature unless it is a message form MS. 

Side Note: For a laptop stick with XP as Vista eats more ram then XP
did just like what ever comes after Vista will eat even more.

[flexcoders] How to create skin for buttons in a ButtonBar?

[arpan srivastava]

Hi All,

I have two buttons in a buttonbar, and in one button I have to make a 
triangle in upward direction and in other a triangle in downward direction to 
show up and down directions. I tried the following code but was not able to get 
the triangle.

Here is what i did:

var a:Array = new Array();

var temp:Object = new Object();
temp["labelField"] = "First";
temp["iconField"] = TriangleDownSkin;
a.push(temp);

temp = new Object();
temp["labelField"] = "Second";
temp["iconField"] = TriangleUpSkin;
a.push(temp);

buttonBar.labelField = "labelField";
buttonBar.iconField = "iconField";
buttonBar.dataProvider = a;

and "TriangleUpSkin" class  is implemented as below: 

public class TriangleUpSkin extends ProgrammaticSkin
{
public function TriangleUpSkin()
{
super();
}

override protected function updateDisplayList(w:Number, h:Number):void{
  var g:Graphics = graphics;
g.moveTo(w / 2,h/4);
g.lineTo((3*w)/4, (3*h)/4);
g.lineTo(w / 4,(3*h)/4);
g.lineTo(w / 2,h/4 );
g.endFill(); 
}
}

i cannot embed any file, is there anyway i can create triangle?

Hi Praveen,

I've gathered the best resources I've found here:

Another good resource:

http://cairngormdocs.org/

Especially our blog's 'Cairngorm Code Examples" category:

Best way to learn is to dive into the examples, study the code, and 
study the articles, perhaps starting with Steven Webster's six-part series.

[flexcoders] Re: Embedding XML

[brandona788]

I'm not sure about the limitations yet.  I wouldn't imagine the
filesize would affect anything (xml parsing is fast and the filesize
effects the swf size).

We are precompiling our SWF for deployment and the compile time isn't
that long for our use.  But you do have to recompile everytime you
change the XML file.

We made this decision because we didn't see a need to have a HTTP
request for every XML file when we need it.  If it were loaded when we
load our ModelLocator we load the XML files and it seems rather fast
right now.

RE: [flexcoders] Problem with post

Hi,

 

Try not to use the HTTPService with the URLVariables class. The latter
is best used with the URLLoader class. I had fairly good experience with
that. That might be the reason why the first variable is not being sent
properly.

 

Cheers,

Petro

Is there any reason why if i send with method post, one variable will 
not be sent ?

var params:URLVariables=new URLVariables();
var myservice:HTTPService=new HTTPService();

params.var1=event.values[0];
params.var2=event.values[1];
params.var3=event.values[2];

myservice.method="post";
myservice.url.etc

myservice.send(params);

the odd things is that var1 no matter where I put it, is not sent, but 
if I just change .method="post" to .method="get"
then everything is sent correctly...
any thoughts?

So you have to cast:

I'm converting some Flex1.5 code to flex 2.0.  One of the classes (a

color to that of the parent container:


__labelCanvas.setStyle("backgroundColor")=_parent.getStyle("backgroundColor");


This doesn't work in Flex2.0, nor does parent.getStyle("backgroundColor");

How can I get a style attribute of a parent container?

BTW, I can't just let it be transparent because I need to obscure some
drawn graphic elements of the parent, but I want __labelCanvas to have the
same background color as the parent.  Also, the parent might not always be
the same color, else I would set a CSS descriptor for ! it.

the source attribute is the path that ColdFusion will use to 
resolve 

your CFC.

If you use com.winn.leads it will expect to find leads.cfc inside 

com/winn/ folder.

It's just like when you use createObject( 'component' ,'some.dot. notation' ).



If you are using cf with apache/iis yes, the endpoint url should be 

something targeting port 80 (standard).

Also, set a fault handler for you remote object and run it in debug mode 

and take a look into the error returned.



Also, I don't know if it was a typo but you should call myCfc.getInfo( )

[flexcoders] Determining column display order in a DataGrid

[cuddlygunchi]

Hello,

I have a datagrid whose columns are being populated by an array of 
DataGridColumn objects.

The initial order of display of these columns in the grid is the order 
in which i choose to add the column objects in the array.

But when a user drags the columns around, how can I determine the new 
order in which the columns are being displayed? I would like to trigger 
an event when the columns are rearranged and be able to determine the 
index at which a particular column is being displayed in a grid at that 
time.

I have verified that my array providing values to the datagrid.columns 
is unchanged even after the column order has been changed by drag-drop.

Any clue would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks,
Aman

[flexcoders] Flex and spell check?

RE: [flexcoders] Flex on Mac

[Celikdemir, Oguz]

I have both ( PC and MAC )

 

My MyBook 1.86 Ghz Core Duo, 2 GB ram and standard Harddisk. I used Flex
and Flash on MyBook, PC as well. I didn't see any differences, worked
well. But there ise one advantage if you buy MyBook, you can use 2
different operating system at the same time ( OSX and XP ). But I have
got one suggestion for you. If you want to buy MyBook, choose big
harddisk that 60 GB it's not enough for me.

RE: [flexcoders] Difference between getChild and getAtomationChild

[Sasha Magee]

OK, let's try this again, 
 
As Johannes guessed, the automationChild is used by the automated
testing system so that automation scripts can reflect the logical
component hierarchy, rather than the display component hierarchy. 
 
Unless you are developing custom components that will be tested with the
Flex automated testing integration, you shouldn't need to pay any
attention to the automationChild.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex on Mac

[Adam Reynolds]

Personally I would get a PC BUT only because you are not limiting 
yourself to running Adobe products. You want a play machine.

As you are running CF and X databases as well I would recommend 2GB of 
RAM. Graphics card is not so important.

Re: [flexcoders] Difference between getChild and getAtomationChild

[Peter Hall]

Correct. getAutomationChild() is a method of the IAutomationObject
interface, and only returns children that also implement that interface.
IAutomationObject is part of the mx.automation package, which is designed
for automated testing. So basically, it's a filter for testing tools so they
only have to look at objects that can be automated. The Flex extension for
Mercury QTP is currently (I think) the only commercial tool that makes use
of it.

Re: [flexcoders] flash remoting documentation

[João Fernandes]

the source attribute is the path that ColdFusion will use to resolve 
your CFC.
If you use com.winn.leads it will expect to find leads.cfc inside 
com/winn/ folder.
It's just like when you use createObject('component','some.dot.notation').

If you are using cf with apache/iis yes, the endpoint url should be 
something targeting port 80 (standard).
Also, set a fault handler for you remote object and run it in debug mode 
and take a look into the error returned.

Also, I don't know if it was a typo but you should call myCfc.getInfo()

in my C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\WEB-INF\flex\flex-services.xml file i have the 1 
standard channel, without the port (cuz im not using built in server, right?)




false





  

THEN, in my flex application very simply i am defining



but when i run

myCfc.getInfo

which should return me a number (just for testing), nothing happens- the 
handler function puts the response in a textarea- i have an http proxy running 
and i don't even see a request going out.  i was getting an error that it could 
not find that CFC but somehow i fixed that.

what i need to know is:
the SOURCE attribute of the mx:RemoteObject class, what path is this from?  how 
is the endpoint url in the channel related to the URL i'm using for the site, 
and what is the best way to access components in my site (not in the 
cfusionMX7\wwwroot).
