[flexcoders] Re: http request issue on linux

2009-12-29 Thread ynotob
I've traced this further and the problem is that the id property of the flex 
application is null on linux but populated on as expected on Windows and Mac.

the actual code is slightly different to what I posted below.

it should read:

params.module = application.id

The module parameter is the one with the null value.

The SDK version is 3.4

any ideas?

 This works fine on the server side when the flex application is run in a 
 windows and a mac client but it failing when being run on a linux client.  On 
 the server side the request parameter comes through as null.
 
 The linux version of the flash player is 10r42.

Hi Julian

There aren't any flaws in what I'm saying. You're not required to follow my 
advice, though. :-)

People get told they need to upgrade or install new software all the time so I 
don't agree that this is a situation we have to mutely accept. IE is a crappy 
piece of software. It has been the subject of numerous exploits. Why would any 
sensible corporate IT manager want to mandate the use of IE when there are 
alternatives that are faster, more secure and that better support standards? 

Hey, but no-one ever got sacked for buying IBM (or installing IE) right? ;-)

For the record, I mostly develop apps that are for the general public, so I 
work to support all browsers. I still make  a point of recommending the use of 
browsers other than IE when the opportunity arises though...

Anyway, glad you found a workaround.

Guy

PS, you could also try serving your swf via http and only doing your data calls 
via https.

 Dear Guy,
 
 While I generally see you're point, there are a few flaws in what you're 
 saying:
 
 1. Try saying that to a corporate executive who is expecting your software to 
 work in his existing infrastructure and see how far you get.
 2. It is a problem in all version of IE anyway, so if you used the garbage 
 known as IE 8 you'd still be in the same boat.
 3. It's solved anyway by hacking the hell out of the headers when it's IE 6 
 :) (will be posted somewhere online once I've got the solution 100%).

 Yes. Drop support for IE6. It has very little market share these days and is 
 about the worst browser out there.
 
 
 Use a little browser detection javascript to tell users of IE6 it's time to 
 update to something that isn't so crappy. Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari 
 are all far better browsers than any version of IE.
 
 If developers stopped tying themselves in knots trying to work around all 
 IE's faults and instead encouraged everyone to install one of the 
 aforementioned browsers we'd soon see many of these sorts of problems go away 
 and we could concentrate instead on actually developing content.

Re: [Spam] RE: [Spam] RE: [flexcoders] Using Cairngorm and how to display a Popup from aCommand

2009-12-29 Thread Nick Middleweek
Hello, thanks for your reply...

The event is being dispatched from a Command but I'm using HTTP Service and
AsyncToken to call a Web Service. I think my problem would be getting the
function ref from the delegate to the responder Command as they are
de-linked if that makes sense...


Cheers,

 Hi,

 Thanks for the appreciation.
 Yups you have got it right. But in you statement:


 then I have the problem of getting that function reference over into the
 2nd CairngormEvent, which isn't created and fired until the Web Service
 responder is called

 I think you are talking about dispatching an event from the command or
 Sequence Command type of thing.

 For that scenario, you can pass on that function reference to the the 2nd
 Cairngorm Event also.
 You can keep that parameter in the Event also. So that you always does not
 need to worry about it.
 And Function reference is in terms of instance of the command. If your
 command gets fired again before it returns you the result for the last
 executed method, even then you are safe.

 Keeping the view reference in the model have pros and cons. I will not
 prefer that way, simply because it breaks the encapsulation, view gets
 publicly exposed as the Model is a singleton class.

 But there is no hard and fast rule as well.. :)

 Thanks,
 Vaibhav Seth.

 Subject: Re: [Spam] RE: [flexcoders] Using Cairngorm and how to display a
 Popup from aCommand



  Nice post and thanks for replying...

 I understand your first solution, I think it's similar to a ChangeWatcher
 approach... but I'm a bit lost with the 2nd approach...


 In my circumstance, I have a button in my view that fires a Flash CLICK
 event, the view-mediator Handles it and fires a CairngormEvent, which
 invokes a CairngormCommand to call a Web Service to fetch some data. The
 data is loaded asynchronously and passed into a new CairngormEvent which
 then fires a CairngormCommand, this Command unpacks the data and if it's all
 gravy, it will update the model and the fetched data is displayed on the
 current View. If the data contains Fault event info then I need to show a
 custom PopUp component...

 I think, you're 2nd solution is storing a private or public function from
 inside the View on the CairngormEvent that is fired to reference it later...
 If I've got that right, then I have the problem of getting that function
 reference over into the 2nd CairngormEvent, which isn't created and fired
 until the Web Service responder is called... Which I believe is completely
 detached from the original CairngormEvent/ Command.

 I guess I could put the function ref on the model as a central repository
 but I could also just stick a reference to the View on the model and use
 that reference in the CairngormCommand and call PopUpManager.createPopup...


 What are your thoughts cause I'm a bit lost :)

 nick

Hi again. 

 

I wrote the follow (as you did the same).

  var aPanel:Panel = new Panel();

  aPanel.width=100;aPanel.height=50;

  aPanel.setStyle(bottom,30);

  aPanel.setStyle(right,30);

  addChild(aPanel);

but the panel is not anchored.

What it is wrong here? Please send me your code where the constraints are
working.

 

Also I found that current stage doesn't know the event RESIZE or it doesn't
resized J, I don't know this detail.

With other words, the follow Listener's registration is not triggered.

addEventListener(flash.events.Event.RESIZE,listenerCurrentStageOnResize);

 

On the other hand. the Application is Resized and the follow Listener's
registration has effect.

Application(Application.application).addEventListener(flash.events.Event.RES
IZE,ListenerAppOnResize);

Constraints should work in a application parent container. Are you certain
that the application is resizing correctly?  Set up a onResize listener for
debugging purposes and make sure it is getting fired on browser resize.

 

If it is, and constraints are still not woking, then you can use that
listener to reposition you component.

 

Here is an example that positions a popup component on application resize,
it should help if you need to go the manual route.

Hi Tracy. I hope you are ok.

In the above code, setting the right and bottom, I expect, in case of
resizing the browser, the PanelGrandient must be kept anchored in the right
bottom corner. 

 

What I do wrong?

 

p.s. The PanelGradient extends the UIComponent and in real is a container of
a Shape with a matrix.

 class, any ideas on exposing that protected property?
 
  Thanks

   The concept of this seems easy, but I'm having trouble getting it
 right and can't find anything to help me on this.
  
   I have a panel I need to perform a drag and drop operation on, but I
 only want to perform that if the user mouses down on a particular area
 of the panel. I can add an Icon to the panel by doing this:
  
   **
   [Embed(/img/icon.png)]
   [Bindable]
   public var dragIcon:Class;
  
   newPanel.titleIcon = dragIcon;
   **
  
   But what I really want to add is a box, which I can then add my
 listeners to for the drag and mouse down like I do on some canvases
 created in actionscript like so:
  
   **
   var tempBox:Box = new Box;
   tempBox.x=0;
   tempBox.y=0;
   tempBox.width = 20;
   tempBox.height = 44;
   tempBox.setStyle(horizontalAlign,center);
   tempBox.setStyle(verticalAlign,middle);
   tempBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,over);
   tempBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,out);
   tempBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,mouseDownAnswer);
   var tempImg:Image = new Image();
   tempImg.source = grabbableItem;
   tempBox.addChild(tempImg);
   myCanvas.addChild(tempBox);
   **
  
   So what do I need to do to use that tempBox and turn it into a class
 to be used as my panels titleIcon?

In updateDispayList() position the box:

tempBox.move( unscaledWidth - tempBox.width - 10, ( unscaledHeight / 2 ) - ( 
tempBox.height / 2 ) );

This would put it on the right side of the header, minus 10 pixels.

I may not be able to sell that to the project manager. Anyway to keep it on the 
left without covering the title?

Thanks, you've helped a lot so far.

Ok, an easy way would be to add paddingLeft to the titleStyleName, or try to 
move the titleTextField in updateDisplayList();

Hi,

I got  a requiremnt to display newtwork diagrmas. These diagrams should be 
created dynamically by loading data from the database. 

I have looked into some 3rd party frameworks like, ILOG Elixir, y files etc, 
but none of them was giving me a solution. 

Any bidy cna suggest how to implemnt this.
