RE: [flexcoders] MOUSE_LEAVE never fires in IE if drag with bounds is active

2007-09-26 Thread Alex Harui
Go ahead and file it if you want.  I'm not even going to bother to
confirm.  It is a player API.  We avoid startDrag/stopDrag for many
other reasons and handle dragging in separate code in Flex

Subject: [flexcoders] MOUSE_LEAVE never fires in IE if drag with bounds
is active



The behavior is just like if you drag past the bounds and release
without having defined a MOUSE_UP listener for the stage. This makes
it impossible to cancel a drag operation if the user's mouse leaves
the stage with the mouse button down. Again, this is only in IE.
Pretty sure this is a bug but will wait for confirmation before
filing. Complete test case below.

Thanks,
Ben

Ola, I am with the following problem…
I have the field value in some tables of my DB, in flex I store values
in format ,00 (money) but when I return the stored items for my
datagrid and click header to sort it no right sorted because is string.

I'm using amfphp to get values from PHP. 

If i use, decimal on mysql, i think php will cast this decimal to

Which would be the best way to fix this problem?

You mean you can't write:

 Works really well, you get code hinting for the components layed out and

[flexcoders] Get row and column from click on datagrid

2007-09-26 Thread Mark Ingram
Hi, I want to find out what row and column I have clicked on in a
datagrid. Where do I start?

 

Ideally what I want to do is detect if I clicked on an empty row and
then insert a new item into the data provider to let the user edit the
new row.

 

Thanks,

 

Mark

 

 

 



[flexcoders] logic problem

2007-09-26 Thread candysmate
I have two textInput components. This code:

if((goodsInAccount.text != )  (goodsInAdvice.text.indexOf(/) == 0))
  {
 .
  }

but it returns true when goodsInAccount contains no text and
goodsInAdvice contains the / character. The problem seems to be with
the logic knowing that goodsInAccount.text is empty. It's tried using
goodsInAccount.text.length  0 too. 

Maybe I've just not had enough coffee yet, or is this a known bug?

[flexcoders] Re: Code Coverage Testing Tool For Flex...

2007-09-26 Thread barry.beattie
 We have not put out a code coverage tool for Flex 2.  It's something
 that we have on our roadmap, but timing is unknown.

so, is there still no movement on this? Nothing as part of
FlexBuilder3? no side projects?

just too hard to do for Flex?





[flexcoders] States and ComboBox error

2007-09-26 Thread Mika Kiljunen
Hi!
I have a popup window that uses States and has an extended combobox
(DropDownList) attached to it (LOGIN_STATE has it, there are two other
states that don't have it). It works very well otherwise, but I get an error
if I change the selection on combobox by using arrow keys on keyboard. It
does work without errors if mouse is used to select values.

The error I get is (NOTE: I don't even have keyDownHandler listened, I guess
the error comes from ComboBox class):

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object
reference.
at mx.controls::ComboBox/mx.controls:ComboBox::keyDownHandler()



Does anybody have any ideas how to solve this? Here a portion of the mxml
code used to define the states

  mx:AddChild position=firstChild

 Yeah. But it's not a framework class. It's not listed in

 your link points at says 'The DisplayObjectTransformer application files

Re: [flexcoders] logic problem

2007-09-26 Thread leds usop
Having no text doesnt mean the string value is . An
Empty string is different from a null or an undefined
value. So i suggest throw in  a check for
undefined/null value as well and if you dont turst
that enough, check for the length as well.

 Moreover, when you say
goodsInAdvice.text.indexOf(/) == 0 ; you are
actually checking for the existence of the /
character at the 0th index. If you want to check for
it's absence, try goodsInAdvice.text.indexOf(/) ==
-1 or goodsInAdvice.text.indexOf(/)  0.

Based on the scenario you have

goodsInAdvice.text with / in the beginning will
really return true.

[flexcoders] HTML content overlapping on Flex scrollbars

2007-09-26 Thread avinash_shirol
We are displaying some HTML content within our flex UI. We are using 
the IFrame code created by Christoph Coenraets available on net. The 
initial display works fine. However, if we reduce the size of the flex 
window, we get flex scrollbars. On trying to scroll the window such 
that window border crosses the rendered area of the HTML, the HTML 
gets rendered even on the scrollbars. Basically, the HTML renderer is 
not able to recognize the flex scrollbars on the right and on the 
bottom of the window. Is there any way to fix it?

Re: [flexcoders] e4x question

2007-09-26 Thread Paul deCoursey
I have been getting caught up with with one for a few weeks now, I keep 
forgetting to specify the namespace.  I actually think this is a bug, 
but I haven't checked the Ecma requirements yet.  In XPATH and the like 
if you don't specify a namespace in the query it will return all 
elements regardless of namespace.  This only seems to be an issue in the 
ecma world, and it seems wrong to me.  I suppose it could be argued that 
this helps us be better programmers and specifying namespaces is better 
in the long run.  But in the example that you guys were working with it 
was the xml namespace, that should just be handled... just my opinion, 
but a lot of time was wasted on this and in my opinion it's a bug, 
possibly a language level bug.

 The behavior is just like if you drag past the bounds and release
 without having defined a MOUSE_UP listener for the stage. This makes
 it impossible to cancel a drag operation if the user's mouse leaves
 the stage with the mouse button down. Again, this is only in IE.
 Pretty sure this is a bug but will wait for confirmation before
 filing. Complete test case below.

[flexcoders] Datagrid masking

Hi All

I've got an intermittent problem with the masking on my datagrids.
Occassionally the scrolling content of the datagrid appears outside
the bounds of the box.

I can see the contents of the row below the last displayed one when it
should be masked and not visible.

When you scroll the problem fixes its self.

Has this happened to anyone else?
Is there a fix?

I've got Flex Builder 2.0.1.167022 (with Hotfix 2).

Re: [flexcoders] Is there a mouseOverIndex? - QUICK SOLUTION

2007-09-26 Thread leds usop
Hi Guillermo,

try this:
private function handleMouseEvent(e:MouseEvent):void{

trace(nav_bloque1.getChildIndex(e.target as
DisplayObject));

}


This way, regardless of how many buttons you add or
delete and regardless of the values associated with
them, you will still get the correct index (zero-based
index of course).

Another way to do this - although rather lengthy - is
to catch the label of the target and look it up back
on the dataprovider associated. You will have to deal
with duplicate labels  this way however.

I would have suggested that you subclass button bar
instead and dispatch a custom rollover event so that
you can get whatever details there is in the data
provider that is associated with the 'mouse-overed'
button.  But if you just need the index, i think the
solution above will be enough.

p.s. are you from the Philippines?

Best,
Leds

Re: [flexcoders] Is there a mouseOverIndex? - QUICK SOLUTION

2007-09-26 Thread Guillermo Villasana
Definitely I think this will do I will try it out. Thanks a lot to 
everyone for the help.
And nope I am not frome the Philippines :)

 Hi Guillermo,

 try this:
 private function handleMouseEvent(e:MouseEvent):void{

 trace(nav_bloque1.getChildIndex(e.target as
 DisplayObject));

 }

 This way, regardless of how many buttons you add or
 delete and regardless of the values associated with
 them, you will still get the correct index (zero-based
 index of course).

 Another way to do this - although rather lengthy - is
 to catch the label of the target and look it up back
 on the dataprovider associated. You will have to deal
 with duplicate labels this way however.

 I would have suggested that you subclass button bar
 instead and dispatch a custom rollover event so that
 you can get whatever details there is in the data
 provider that is associated with the 'mouse-overed'
 button. But if you just need the index, i think the
 solution above will be enough.

 p.s. are you from the Philippines?

 Best,

[flexcoders] How to Highlight selected item in mx:List after change of data provider

2007-09-26 Thread falgunisachde
Hello,
I am using mx:List which is bind to dataprovider of Collection type.
On some particular event.The dataprovider list is getting updated,so I
need to refresh Listbox with updated listvalues and set selected index
again to the same.
I am able to refresh the collection and set selected index again.But I
am not able to show the selected Item highlighted (eg. I dont able to
show selected item in blue color as it was before)

Can you people provide me some hint regarding how to set style or call
render for highlighting the particular item in Listbox?

Thanks in advance.

Try this:

I was able to figure out the name of the reference parameter, but I can't 
figure out how to use it. I want to call functions on the custom marker, and 
eventually having the custom marker dispatching events which I can listen for.

I think I might need the YahooMap.swc, but I get an error when I try to add 
this to my project.

Any tips on how to do this?

 What I am now trying to do is load custom markers, once the user

image...but I need to pass the image location to the loaded swf.. 
once it's loaded... This is what I have so far:
 
 I added an event listener :
 mapEventDispatcher.addEventListener('addSWFMarkerByAddress_Result',
onSWFMarkerAdded);
 
 Then similar to what you have:
 latLonController.addMarkerByLatLon('CustomSWFMarker',44, -80,
{url:'customMarker.swf', ref:'myMark'});
 
 Then the event function:
  private function onSWFMarkerAdded(ev:Object):void {
 Alert.show(ev.lastResult, 'Title');
   //shows nothing...
 }
 
 All works great, the event fires when the markers are added BUT
from what I gather the event object ev has 2 params: event type and a 
reference id. I do not know however what the actual param names areAnd for 
some reason my Flexbuilder hangs while the map is loading ( I am uing the yahoo 
as3 connection kit) in debug mode.. I cannot go see the names..
 
 So now, I am trying to figure out how I am going to pass the data
to the loaded swf  :(

Instead of using the Label component try using a LinkButton component and 
setting the style accordingly.  The LinkButton component seems to be the thing 
you are actually looking to use.

 Subject: [flexcoders] Data Sharing between two swfs
 
 
 
 Hi All,
 
 Here's a brief description of my problem.
 I have two separate html pages, lets say html1 and html2, each 
 containing a swf..lets say swf1 and swf2. A user would typically 
land 
 up on html1 page which contians swf1, swf1 would gather some data, 
 the user then navigates to html2 page which contains swf2. 
 The problem here is that swf2 needs access to data that was 
collected 
 by swf1 on the previous page.
 
 Some options I thought about..
 
 1) using shared objects to share the data, but read somewhere that 
 shared objects can only share simple data like strings etc. My data 
 is stored in a actionscript class and wasn't sure if I could store 
 the whole class in a shared object. Any ideas ?
 
 2) Would RSL's be of any help here ? If I create my data class as 
an 
 RSL, would it be seen by both the swf objects on different pages ?
 
 3) Could create a long query-string (with all data) within swf1 and 
 then call swf2 on next page with these parameters as flashvars.
 
 Would appreciate any suggestions about achieving this.
 
 Thx

Alright, I've read the specs, it's not a bug but in fact it's by 
design... a design choice that I would not have made.  The deal is if 
the namespace is not specified then for elements it matches on the 
default namespace, but for attributes it matches on no namespace... 
makes not sense to me.  What also doesn't make sense is that attributes 
don't have a namespace unless declared per attribute.  They do not 
inherit from the element, which is what XML Schema defines, but since 
Schema really doesn't come into play here this can be expected.

It's all totally bizzare.

[flexcoders] Flex and Server-Side Java classes

2007-09-26 Thread Mark Doberenz
All,
  I've been a part of this list for a long time and I'm a pretty decent Flex
programmer.  However, I'm not too familiar with the server-side aspect of
things.
  I wanted to post a server-side noob question for you experts out there.

  If I have a couple existing applications, one that runs in JBoss, one
that's .NET with a SOAP API, and I want to set up a broker system using java
and JBoss, is it possible to have Flex make Remote Object calls to the
broker system if I DON'T use LCDS?  In other words, do I need LCDS to call a
server-side Java class?

  Please no flames regarding this question.  If I've said something
incorrectly, please let me know so I can learn more about this stuff.  I
hate that I don't even know the questions to ask. :(

Thanks,

[flexcoders] Manipulating tree label programmatically

2007-09-26 Thread nhid
Hi,

I am trying to change the label of a tree item for when the item is
selected.

branch1
 child1A
branch2
 child2A
  child2Aa
  child2Ab

First problem is I need to add a character, lets say #, to the label, so
when I click on child1A, it should now display #child1A.

Second problem is changing the style of the label, bolding it, to the label,
so when I click on branch2, it should now display *branch2*.

Any idea is greatly appreciated.


[flexcoders] How to save a sharedobject value based on a parameter name??

2007-09-26 Thread tjcox1969
I want to have a function that one can call to save a name/value into
the clientside SharedObject.

The Flex doc has the example like this:

 var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(superfoo);
 my_so.data.itemNumbers = items_array;
 my_so.data.adminPrivileges = currentUserIsAdmin;
 my_so.data.userName = currentUserName;


My issue is that I don't want to hard code the name of the cookie.  So
in the above example, I don't want to hardcode itemNumbers.

Here is what I want to do:

public function saveCookie(key:String, value:String):void {
 var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(superfoo);
 my_so.data.key = value;
}

The problem is that data.key is not evaluated to its real parameter
value and the cookie is saved as the hard coded key string.

Any ideas?  Thanks!




[flexcoders] Re: How to save a sharedobject value based on a parameter name??

function saveCookie(key:String, value:String):void {

}

BUT!!!  How does one GET the value using a parameter name.  There is
no so.getProperty(key);  

Appears that the only way to get a stored value is off of the so.data
object.  And you can't parameterize this.  And this is my problem. 

function getCookie(key:String):void {
   // This always attempts to get a cookie with the name key
   return so.data.key;
}

Any ideas?  Thanks!

  my_so.data.userName = currentUserName;
 
 
 My issue is that I don't want to hard code the name of the cookie.  So
 in the above example, I don't want to hardcode itemNumbers.
 
 Here is what I want to do:
 
 public function saveCookie(key:String, value:String):void {
  var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(superfoo);
  my_so.data.key = value;
 }
 
 The problem is that data.key is not evaluated to its real parameter
 value and the cookie is saved as the hard coded key string.
 
 Any ideas?  Thanks!





RE: [flexcoders] New Project using ColdFusion Flash Remoting Service

 Pretty sure server side compile only works with Cold Fusion 8. You

Subject: [flexcoders] New Project using ColdFusion Flash Remoting
Service



Hi all,
 
A quick and newbie question - i m sure this is easy for most of you.
 
I want to test the flash remoting service of ColdFusion and flex. I have
a book on Flex explains perfectly some examples but it has very poor
help in setting up the whole thing. This is my scenario:
 
I have coldfusion 7.0.2 running on a different machine on my local
network on win2k3 server.
 
I have opened a new website on my IIS which can be accessed at
http://myexample.flex http://myexample.flex  . Placing .cfm files
there works perfectly!
 
Now, I create in FlexBuilder 2 a new project using the option ColdFusion
Flash Remoting Service.
 
I am asked to enter the following:
 
Root Folder : I have created a mapping that points directly to the
coldfusion root folder: this is o:\cfusionmx7\wwwroot   (even if I try
to add something different there it fails to validate).
Root URL : I have entered my http://myexample.flex
http://myexample.flex   there
 
that's it, i hit Next, i try to wrinte some MXML (anything really) but
it fails to compile, it keeps running and running with no result.
 
Could you please help me on this? 
 
Thanks a lot,
George

The existing zoom effects is there on the entire chart and series, but
to have it for individual chart items, you probably can handle the
itemRollOver events and add a chartelement dynamically as that of the
itemRenderer with a appropriate scale effect and appropriate bounds.

I have been running into the same thing since the FileReference API

system them consumes and upgrades with. This works fine on Mac Safari
and Windows IE but not on Mac Firefox or Windows Firefox...or for that
matter, Windows Safari...but I am not too worried about that one.

So you are not the only one with the FIleReference SSL/Firefox issue.

 This leads me to believe that the ssl handshake from flex to webscarab

You can do this quite easily by manipulating the maximum and minimum

[flexcoders] DataGrid itemRenderer

2007-09-26 Thread byte.sensei
I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure out the best way to 
format numbers in a DataGrid.  I've got a dataProvider with fields 
used in the grids that are of type Number -- some are currency, 
some are integers, and some are numbers that need to be formatted to 
1 decimal point.

In other places in my application, I'm using a custom function to 
format numbers:

public function format_number(num : Number, format : String) : String 
{
var formatter : NumberFormatter = new NumberFormatter();
var str : String;

switch (format) {
case currency:
formatter.precision = 2;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = true;
str = $ + formatter.format(num);
break;
case percent:
formatter.precision = 1;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = true;
str = formatter.format(num*100) + %;
break;
case decimal2:
formatter.precision = 2;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = false;
str = formatter.format(num);
break;
case cuft:
formatter.precision = 1;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = true;
if (num  0) { num = 0 }
str = formatter.format(num);
break;
default:
str = String(num);
break;
}

return str;
}


However, I can't figure out a way to utilize this function on my 
DataGrid columns. I've tried creating both inline and external 
itemRenderer components, but in both cases I don't see a way to 
inject the required Actionscript into the itemRenderer component -- I 
keep getting compile errors when I try to use an mx:Script block in 
the component.

Anyone know of a way to make this work?

The existing zoom effects is there on the entire chart and series, but
to have it for individual chart items, you probably can handle the
itemRollOver events and add a chartelement dynamically as that of the
itemRenderer with a appropriate scale effect and appropriate bounds.

Subject: [flexcoders] DataGrid itemRenderer



I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure out the best way to 
format numbers in a DataGrid. I've got a dataProvider with fields 
used in the grids that are of type Number -- some are currency, 
some are integers, and some are numbers that need to be formatted to 
1 decimal point.

In other places in my application, I'm using a custom function to 
format numbers:

public function format_number(num : Number, format : String) : String 
{
var formatter : NumberFormatter = new NumberFormatter();
var str : String;

switch (format) {
case currency:
formatter.precision = 2;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = true;
str = $ + formatter.format(num);
break;
case percent:
formatter.precision = 1;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = true;
str = formatter.format(num*100) + %;
break;
case decimal2:
formatter.precision = 2;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = false;
str = formatter.format(num);
break;
case cuft:
formatter.precision = 1;
formatter.useThousandsSeparator = true;
if (num  0) { num = 0 }
str = formatter.format(num);
break;
default:
str = String(num);
break;
}

return str;
}

However, I can't figure out a way to utilize this function on my 
DataGrid columns. I've tried creating both inline and external 
itemRenderer components, but in both cases I don't see a way to 
inject the required Actionscript into the itemRenderer component -- I 
keep getting compile errors when I try to use an mx:Script block in 
the component.

Anyone know of a way to make this work?

First problem is I need to add a character, lets say #, to the label, so

Second problem is changing the style of the label, bolding it, to the

Occassionally the scrolling content of the datagrid appears outside

I can see the contents of the row below the last displayed one when it

When you scroll the problem fixes its self.

Has this happened to anyone else?
Is there a fix?

 The behavior is just like if you drag past the bounds and release
 without having defined a MOUSE_UP listener for the stage. This makes
 it impossible to cancel a drag operation if the user's mouse leaves

[flexcoders] How to verify a URL before loading it OR how to catch IOException

2007-09-26 Thread tjcox1969
I have a compiled theme SWF that I want to load at runtime.  The
problem is that if the theme.swf does not exist, I get Flash/Flex's
ugly default error dialog at runtime saying:

Error: Unable to load style(Error #2035: URL Not Found. URL:
MyTheme.swf): MyTheme.swf.

I don't mind catching the exception on load time but catching
exceptions doesn't freakin work!  So frustrating...

How does one catch this exception?  I have spent hours on this...even
looking into how URLLoader handles exceptions and catching exceptions
on that does not work for me either - I get the default Flex error
dialog.  I tried catching IOError, Error, etc  HELP!!??

Here is what I am doing, but the catch statement never happens:

try {
  StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations(MyTheme.swf);
} catch (e:Error) {

  Alert.show(Error);

[flexcoders] Very strange runtime behavior - if logic doesn't work?????

2007-09-26 Thread dbronk
Very strange...

I had an apparent bug in my code and simply could not find it so I
created a very basic function to help test.  Here is the code:

public function crazy(myBool:Boolean) : void
{
if ( myBool )
{
var s:String;
}
}

Yes, it does nothing.  I place a break point on the var s:String; line
to test the logic of the if statement.  When I execute, it does not
matter if I send in a true or a false to this method, it ALWAYS
evaluates the expression to true, even though I can see in the
debugger myBool is false.  I tried:
if ( myBool == true )
To see if that had any luck.  It did not.  After scratching my head a
bit I tried:

public function crazy(myBool:Boolean) : void
{
if ( myBool )
{
var s:String;
}
else
{
var ss:String;
}
}

Viola!!!  Adding the else and the logic now works fine.  Is it a

[flexcoders] Re: MOUSE_LEAVE never fires in IE if drag with bounds is active

2007-09-26 Thread ben.clinkinbeard
I will definitely file a bug against the player but in my initial
exploration am seeing some deal-breaker shortcomings of both
DragManager and Panel's built-in approach. Panel's
stage_mouseLeaveHandler() listens for MOUSE_LEAVE so it suffers from
the same fate as startDrag(). DragManager, as far as I can tell,
provides no way to limit the drag area. DragManager also doesn't seem
to provide any (easy) way to do live dragging. I assume the only way
to accomplish it would be to copy the dragged component into a
ByteArray and use that as an Image's source for the dragProxy.

As I said, these are only based on initial tests so please let me know
if there is something I am overlooking. As it turns out I really hope
that is the case.

Thanks,
Ben

RE: [flexcoders] Re: firefox and FileReference.upload over SSL - error 2038

2007-09-26 Thread Seth Caldwell
This is very good to hear. If any developer thinks they can do the following
very easy, please do so and post here to bring more attention to this issue
- it is a huge bug!

 

Step 1: Install apache (ssl version)

Step 2: install openssl if you don't have it already, and generate your
keys, etc.

Step 3: Configure apache to run ssl and non ssl from the same directory.
Verify with an html file.

Step 4: Install php, configure apache to use it. 

Step 5: Create a test project that uses filereference.upload, perhaps using
http://localhost/upload.php as the target. Verify this works.

Step 6: Change it to https://localhost/upload.php and watch it work in IE
but fail miserably in firefox.

Step 7: Post back to the list that you encountered the same bug. Or better
yet, it works for you over https and post here and let us know.

 

So far I have completed these steps about 7 times on different machines. Not
one of them worked.

If only the runtime's source code were open and I could indentify the
problem there.

So far only Flex Builder is open, am I right?

Hi,

The reason this approach will not work is that the error you are 
getting is an asynchronous error, i.e. something that happens in a 
different code path (when you response return from server). 'try-
catch' can only protected in the current execution stack.

A simple look up at the StyleManager API reveals that 
loadStyleDeclarations() returns an IEventDispatcher!

All you need is :

try {
  var ed : IEventDispatcher = StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations
(MyTheme.swf);
  ed.addEventListener(StyleEvent.ERROR,myErrorHandler);

You don't need to give the namespace variable the same as the prefix that
ActionScript gives it when you toString() it. Internally, it doesn't use a
name and just generates one when you convert the XML to a string.

You can give it something more descriptive like:

namespace w3xml = http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace;;
trace(+xml.status.presence.(@w3xml::lang=='en')); // Away

 Second problem is changing the style of the label, bolding it, to the
 label, so when I click on branch2, it should now display *branch2*.

 Any idea is greatly appreciated.

Yup.  That worked!  Thanks a lot.

 Hi,
 
 The reason this approach will not work is that the error you are 
 getting is an asynchronous error, i.e. something that happens in a 
 different code path (when you response return from server). 'try-
 catch' can only protected in the current execution stack.
 
 A simple look up at the StyleManager API reveals that 
 loadStyleDeclarations() returns an IEventDispatcher!
 
 All you need is :
 
 try {
   var ed : IEventDispatcher = StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations
 (MyTheme.swf);
   ed.addEventListener(StyleEvent.ERROR,myErrorHandler);
 }

If you're just interested in making remote object calls, I guess 
OpenAMF  is a very viable option.

[flexcoders] Bug in Proxy

2007-09-26 Thread Derek Vadneau
There seems to be a bug in flash.utils.Proxy. Here's some sample code:

var mp:MyProxy = new MyProxy();

mp.myVar = 'something'; // calls flash_proxy setProperty as expected

mp['myVar'] = 'something'; // calls flash_proxy setProperty as expected

mp.go(); // calls flash_proxy callProperty as expected

mp['go'](); // calls flash_proxy getProperty - NOT expected

Why is getProperty called where the [] operator is used instead of the
. operator in the case  where a function is being called, but not when
setting a property?

And in that case you MUST return a function or a runtime error will be thrown.

This is unexpected behaviour, as far as I can see.

Another example:

mp.obj.go();

mp['obj']['go'](); // getProperty is called twice, callProperty is NOT
called at all

The issue is that I am dealing with a dynamic API, so I don't always
know that 'obj' or 'go' is a property vs. a method.

But, because the getProperty is called when a callProperty should be
called I am passing an instance of my Proxy class and a runtime error
is thrown.

Re: [flexcoders] Bug in Proxy

i confirm, i logged this on the open bug list and sent them a code sample.
my temp hack
(and this is because i do not need a getter) is this:
override flash_proxy  function getProperty(name:*):* {
   var p:*  = function():*
 {
 callProperty(name,arguments);
 }
 return p;
}

 Calling all skinners!
 
 I am skinning a ComboBox using some vector images in Flash and the
 ComboBox is shorter in height than the default ComboBox. I notice that
 I have to explicitly set the height of the skinned ComboBox, otherwise
 it'll stretch the skin to its default height.
 
 SO, that's fine...annoying that's all. The problem is, after I set the
 height, the text on the ComboBox becomes cut-off. Any idea how I might
 resolve this issue?

[flexcoders] Passing Values to popup components and then passing back

2007-09-26 Thread ming4u2
Hi,

I am working on an exisiting application and trying to pass value to 
opup components.  I don't know if I am not doing it right but the 
values are not being passed and then calling the correct HHTP call 
for the data.  Can anyone point me to the right direction besides the 
Adobe live docs, which really doenst help much.

The page that calls the popup

public function changeHandler():void
  {
var adminPopUp:componentDetail = 
componentDetail(PopUpManager.createPopUp
(this,Pages.Components.componentDetail,true));
if(viewcomponentlisting.selectedItem){
componentDetail(adminPopUp).AssetID = 
viewcomponentlisting.selectedItem.AssetID;
componentDetail
(adminPopUp).LifeCycleID = 
viewcomponentlisting.selectedItem.LifeCycleID;
componentDetail(adminPopUp).title = 
viewcomponentlisting.selectedItem.Description;
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(adminPopUp);
}
else {
var alert:Alert = Alert.show
([EMAIL PROTECTED],AssetID,Alert.OK | Alert.CANCEL,this);  
return;
}
  
  } 

And then the component that is supposed to recieve the values, I set 
them to Bindable variables

[Bindable]
public var AssetID:String;

[Bindable]
public var LifeCycleID:String;


And then I am trying to pass those variables to the HTTP request.

mx:HTTPService id=getAssetLifeCycleComponentXML 
requestTimeout=30 url=someurl.com 
result=assignSelectedItemComponent(); showBusyCursor=true 
resultFormat=e4x
mx:request
AssetIDAssetID/AssetID
LifeCycleIDLifeCycleID/LifeCycleID
/mx:request
 /mx:HTTPService
mx:XMLListCollection id=assetLifeCycleComponentColl 
source={getAssetLifeCycleComponentXML.lastResult.assetlifecyclecompon
entinfo} /

How can i override its updateDisplayList? or any ideas?
