[flexcoders] datagrid refresh

[Scott]

When I use CF9 as the datasource; I'm missing the option to refresh the
dataProvider.

 

Eg. getAllRecords_paged.lastResult.Refresh() is missing.

 

Does anyone know how I can refresh the datagrid?

 

Thanks.

Try a clean and rebuild.  Also look for stray punctuation, especially a colon.

Hi,

Use this http://localhost/amfphp/browser/ and check whether your class
is error free or not.. otherwise replace it with amfphp 1.9 version from

RE: [flexcoders] ConflictDetector... Why?

[Scott]

Ok, I'm encountering yet another bug.  3 found in the past 4 days...
I'm beginning to think the FB4 data management is pretty buggy and not a
lot of time was spent cleaning it up...

 

I'm still not sure I understand the data management functionality very
well but I found this article that helped a bit as far as code goes:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/fcf_managing_data_print.html

 

The issue seems to be that the update function doesn't like it when
there are multiple fields being updated in the single call.  I had a
foreign key that I was not adding to a dataGrid for display so that
value was coming up null in my update function.

 

Here's the buggy part

 

I added a DataGridColumn for that field and set visible="false" then
re-ran the program and received the same error:

 

"Local item has changes to properties that conflict with remote change."

 

I decided I wanted to see that value to make sure it was getting
populated correctly so I set it to visible="true" then re-ran...

 

All of a sudden it was working.  The value should still exist if
visible="false" is set on the DataGridColumn.

 

2 days of wasted time on this one... UG.  I wish I could have found
better documentation on how the process works (or any documentation at
all...)  I would have at least realized that it's expecting to update
only one field at a time.

Subject: [flexcoders] ConflictDetector... Why?

 

  

I've been arguing with the FB4 / CF9 conflict detector the past couple
of days and it's become very apparent that I'm misunderstand something.

 

I have a datagrid component that is populated from a CF9/MySQL
datasource.  I set the datagrid to editable and created the associated
functions to update the datagrid.  My first issue was that the function
was giving me an error : "Attempt to use managed delete method with an
item that is not managed on this client".After hours of playing
around with this I ended up enabling datamanagement on the object for
the delete and update functions which took care of that error mesasge.  

 

I now get an error: "Local item has changes to properties that conflict
with remote change".  I can run the data service call manually in FB4
just fine using "Test Operation" so I know the function works.  But when
I try to update a record I get that error message.  The data I'm
presenting to the user would only be modified/changed/updated by the
data owner.  I know the items are different; that's why I'm updating the
remote DB!

 

1)   Why is there a conflict checker and is there a good reason that
this is in place?  

2)   Is there an easy way to turn this functionality off?

 

There's very little documentation out there on this subject

Re: [flexcoders] Re: how to access action script variable data type in mxml

[Oleg Sivokon]

Well, it's not exactly like that... the type of the local variable is
checked at compile time. Later on local variables kind of "don't exist",
that is the bytecode doesn't have a concept of "get local function variable
strict" because what's used is the address. I.e. take for example something
as simple as this:

var foo:int = 100;
foo++;

will translate into something like:

"push local" 100
"increment by one"

Or, more precisely, let's look at example:

package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
 public class VarTest extends Sprite
{
public function VarTest()
{
super();
var foo:int = 100; // we declared a local variable
foo++; // performed some operation involving the varible
}
}
}

o...@home:~/flex/sdk/bin$ ./swfdump -abc ./VarTest.swf

. . .

function :VarTest:::VarTest():
maxStack:1 localCount:2 initScopeDepth:9 maxScopeDepth:10
debugfile "/home/oleg/projects/Keeper/src;;VarTest.as"
debugline 7
getlocal0
pushscope
debug 1 4 0 10
debugline 9
getlocal0
constructsuper (0)
debugline 10
pushbyte   100
convert_i
setlocal1
debugline 11
getlocal1
increment_i
convert_i
setlocal1
debugline 12
returnvoid
0 Extras
0 Traits Entries

Explanation:
grey - the mandatory initialization stuff and debugging information, not
important for our code
blue - the variable declaration part, this place corresponds to var foo:int
= 100;
red - this is where we increment foo.

Now, convert_i opcode converts the *value *into integer, regardless of the
type of the variable. We could omit the type, in that case we would not have
this opcode, but, this would not affect the variable type, because there
"isn't a variable", there is only an address, a register, where we saved the
integer value of 100.
Next, we retrieve the value from register and increment it,
Then, we set back the register. Note, there are no type checking at this
point. We operate on values and the compiler adds the necessary casting /
conversion if required, but there isn't such thing as a local variable
"runtime type information" because, technically, a local variable is purely
a compile time entity. The local variables may not be accessed by any
external code, so, they don't require the type safety as, say, public API
do. More yet, the compiler will convert all operation concerning variables
into series of procedures, which don't require variables as such. It's
easier to imagine this as a kind of an int-hash table, or something more
like: Dictionary, with the difference from a real dictionaty
being that the actual types are verified at compile time, and therefore
there is no point at doing the same verification at runtime. Or, think about
it as passport control at the airport: once before the flight the passports
are verified, but there's no point to verify them again inside the aircraft
because, regardless of what you will discover during the flight, everyone
will lend in the same destination airport :)

Sounds reasonable.  Removal causes stage to be null and then the error can 
occur.  Good luck.

FocusManager is expecting children it has seen added to its tree to be on stage

RE: [flexcoders] Re: how to access action script variable data type in mxml

[Gordon Smith]

I think you're right that you can't find out at runtime that 'bar' was typed as 
IBitmapDrawable. But using IBitmapDrawable as a type annotation does ensure 
that it gets compiled in unless you deliberately exclude it.

Nope, sorry Amy, it's not possible to get the type of a local variable, you can 
only get the type of a value it references. Example:

function foo():void {

var bar:IBitmapDrawable = new BitmapData();

}

you can only know what the type of the value is ( BitmapData ) the type of the 
"bar" variable (IBitmapDrawable) may not even exist in the compiled code - 
there's no need for it to exist anyway.

I've learned over time that if I say "It's not possible to..." someone else 
will come back with how to do it.  So I usually say "I don't know of any way 
to..."  That way, I don't inadvertently give a newbie the wrong impression that 
something can't be done, just because _I_ don't know how to do it.

In this case, many Flex classes have a className property, or you can use 
flash.utils.getQualifiedClassName().  On the latter, you will have to do some 
parsing to pare it down to _just_ the class name.

[flexcoders] Flex4 - using DropDownList as itemEditor in AdvancedDataGrid

[Andrea Varga]

Hi All,

I am using DropDownList in the itemEditor of an  AdvancedDataGrid. The
problem: after an item is selected from the DropDownList and the mouse is
released over the AdvancedDataGrid's row, that row gets  selected and the
cell edited (DropDownList appears).  It does not appear in DataGrid.

You can try it out here: http://narancs.net/flex/ADGTest/index.html
Edit the 'year' column in the first row, and select 2003. You'll see that
the 4th row will get edited in the AdvancedDataGrid but not in the DataGrid

Source: http://narancs.net/flex/ADGTest/srcview/

Do you have an idea how to fix this issue in the AdvanncedDataGrid?

Thanks,
Andrea

Re: [flexcoders] Tabbing within Spark ItemRenderer

[Alex Harui]

I think the game plan for editing in Spark List is to simply get the display 
object tree to make all of the focusable widgets visible to the FocusManager.  
However, I would expect trouble if you are using virtual renderers, and tabbing 
to renderers scrolled off-screen may not work either.

The principle is pretty straightforward.  Every display object needs tabEnabled 
= true and tabChildren = true.  Containers that are not getting focus have  
hasFocusableChildren = true.  Objects that receive focus need focusEnabled=true 
and tabFocusEnabled=true and implement IFocusManagerComponent.  TabIndex should 
be optional.

Watch out for the outer component and its skin.  The skins and their 
sub-components often don’t have these flags set up for editable renderers.

Post a simple example if you’re still stuck and I’ll take a look.

Re: [flexcoders] FocusManager Bug in Flex 4

[Alex Harui]

It’s definitely a bug.  FocusManager should be forgiving.  I assume it will get 
fixed for the next major release.  Glad you got around it.

FocusManager is expecting children it has seen added to its tree to be on stage 
when their visibility gets changed.

Alex,

I’ve worked around this – here’s what I was doing and what I discovered:

I have a form that has a sub-forum that is popped up using PopUpAnchor. I then 
could add a new item to the sub form and edit it. Then I would send the main 
form and subform data to the server using Remoting. But in my case, the newly 
added item was getting orphaned ano not inserted, and when the returned form 
contents came back, the itemrenderer that was being used for the new item 
wasn’t there – possibly FocusManager was expecting it to be there. When I fixed 
the cause of the orphaning, the problem went away.  I still feel like shouldn’t 
be happening but for the time being I can move forward.

Unfortunately got deferred because we didn’t have a real-world, but simple test 
case.  Do you have one?  It seems to be caused by something not being on stage 
and having visibility flipped.  I think one user was binding visible to 
something that was supposed to evaluate to true, but didn’t always because the 
binding chain wasn’t fully created.

[flexcoders] Tabbing within Spark ItemRenderer

[Battershall, Jeff]

Hi,

Here's something that shouldn't be this hard:

I have a spark list that has an itemrenderer with multiple items that I want to 
tab between.  For the life of me, I haven't been able to get it work. I've 
tried tabEnabled, tabFocusEnabled, hasFocusableChildren, setting tabIndex on 
the individual components inside the ItemRenderer, etc., so far, no dice.  
There's been a lot written about this, but so far I haven't chanced upon the 
definitive solution.   Can someone put me on the fast track to resolution?

[flexcoders] Re: Jazzing Up Your Flex Applications

[Netaman]

Check out TourDeFlex, some stunning effects, also look into changing the layout 
for lists, etc to make stunning effects. If you havn't looked into LCDS for 
RTMP. Real Time Messaging is very cool, and allows the application to be 
updated from the server, instead of pulling data from the server it is pushed 
to you.

[flexcoders] FocusManager Bug in Flex 4

Hi,

I too am getting the DisplayObject(form).stage.focus = null error.  In my case, 
I'm using a PopUpAnchor to show and hide a form.

[flexcoders] Re: flex 4 - NavigatorContent question / element parent

[Netaman]

I use viewStack.removeAllChildren();

also, what I do with the NavigatorContent, is everytime I create a new 
NavigatorContent container I load the resulting child UI component object into 
an arrayCollection then when I need to get to the object inside the 
NavigatorContent I use the viewStack.selectedIndex as an index to the 
ArrayCollection to manipulate the object, or generate a popup, etc...

public function setNavContent(navLabel:String, newView:*):void {
var itemNav:NavigatorContent = new NavigatorContent();
itemNav.label = navLabel;
itemNav.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, 
circleD.editForms);
itemNav.doubleClickEnabled = true;
itemNav.minHeight = 300;
itemNav.minWidth = 400;
itemNav.addElement(newView);
circleD.peViewStack.addChild(itemNav);
}

Where navLabel is a tab string and newView is a UI component usually a 
composite component 

If you need a whitewashed code example let me know.

[flexcoders] DateChooser - multiple Dates without Ctrl-Key

[flxde...@ymail.com]

Hello @all!

I am searching for an option to use the DateChooser "multiple selection" 
without holding the ctrl-Key. I tried to find the right place in the 
DateChooser-class but i can´t find it, maybe i´m searching at the wrong place. 
Any ideas where i should look? I tried to find some existing sources but it 
seems nobody else needs this "function" :-(

Thanks in advance!

[flexcoders] Android Hero denies XMLSocket or Socket connection? ....errors #2031, #2048

[claudiu]

Hi,
I am trying to adapt an existing flash web chat application for the Android 
mobile phone and I am having this really annoying issue. The server is a custom 
based solution and can send back both binary messages or XML. So I can use 
either XMLSocket class or the Socket class to get data from the server. 
Everything works fine when deployed and I connect from the desktop but when I 
try it from the android mobile I get the infamous errors #2031, followed by 
#2048. Now the crossdomain.xml file is rock solid and works well for desktop. 
When the connect socket method runs I see that the server replies with the 
crossdomain file but I get the error when running on the mobile. Has anyone 
bumped into this? Is there some limitation from the mobile phone part. I wasn't 
able to find anything relevant for this issue, in terms of the phone not 
allowing Socket or SMLSocket connections. 

The phone runs Android 2.1 and indicates the FL10,1,123,358 version of flash. 
The issue can be reproduced also on the HTC Desire.

Any input on this would be highly appreciated...
10x,
Claudiu

working with Flex 4, I'm looking for a workaround for a very annoying 
bug :  http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-26273 

TypeError: Error #1009: Il est impossible d'accéder à la propriété ou à la 
méthode d'une référence d'objet nul.

mx.containers::ViewStack/commitSelectedIndex()[E:\dev\4.x\frameworks\projects\framework\src\mx\containers\ViewStack.as:1201]

   

Sometimes the bug appears for ViewStack, CheckBox  working with 
Flex charting components I'm in a hybrid world, spark and halo 

Any suggestions are wellcome,
Stephane
