This came up cause I was configuring my Flex 2 app to communicate with ColdFusion, but I suppose it applies to RemoteObject in general. In order to tell your app the location of a web service destination, we're told to add something like this to the compiler command line:
I hope someone is actually looking into this. Here's a log of the null pointer exception when trying to use J2EE sessions. It's not terribly useful as the stack trace is not shown, but it does show that the exception occurred when trying to access the ColdFusion service, most likely the adapter

I'm seeing some strangeness with the @ operator: var foo: String = hello; @foo = goodbye; trace(foo); //Traces out goodbyeWhy does @foo resolve to foo? Is this expected behaviour? If foo is a property and not a local variable, I get a compiler error (as expected).

For our production environment, our SWFs are served from the same machine that our ColdFusion server resides on, so using {server.name} or {context.root} works fine when configuring destinations. During development, I compile and test SWFs locally. I don't run ColdFusion locally--we have a

When the Loader loads a Flash 7/8 SWF, its height and width properties are set to the SWF's stage height and width. The thing is, the SWF could size its content dynamically so that it's actually larger than specified. The larger SWF is displayed properly in the Flex app and the contentHeight

Ok, say the Flex side needs to call methods on the Flash side. We set up a LocalConnection so that the Flash side acts as a server and the Flex side connects to it. In Flash 8: lc = new LocalConnection();
lc.connect(MyFlashServer); //Give it a unique name//Define callable methods
I've running into this myself right now as well. If you look at the Tree code, you can see that the drop parent is being tracked in the variable _dropData.parent. It gets calculated in the method updateDropData(). Unfortunately, both the variable and the method are private, so they're useless

I ran into a similar situation a while ago where I needed to add stuff to the panel's title bar. While it's possible to use a Canvas to lay stuff on top of a Panel, this doesn't work if you're trying to create a re-useable custom Panel because the resulting component is a subclass of Canvas,

To answer your specific question about adding nodes... Since you have an XML dataProvider, the selectedNode property will return an XML object. You can then use the appendChild() method to add child nodes. eg:

My custom component broadcasts an event called move. So I declare it in the MXML: mx:Metadata [Event(name=move, type=flash.events.Event)] /mx:Metadata
And then later dispatch it: dispatchEvent(new Event(move));But I get a runtime error when dispatching: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
Actually, never mind. I think I figured it out. An event named move was already declared previously by the framework. I guess I should just call it something else. An interesting scenario, anyway...
