If you're doing something that seems really simple, and you think it really
should be working, like in this case, post your code. The question
"Shouldn't a grandchild of Object have the same properties as a child of

AFAIK In an MXML component, document will usually point to the "defining"
instance, which may be the application, or it could be another component.

If you set width only on your Text, and put it in a Canvas with no height

I don't think changing the type in Java will fix your problem, it's probably
a problem in the data you're sending back, or your WSDL / XSD. Double check

What you're asking is doable, but you're definitinely going the wrong way
about it. Put the two vboxes in a canvas that doesn't have its height set,
and set the height on each vbox to 100%. Example:
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute">
Your blazeds http transport is going fine, otherwise you wouldn't see
anything in message, faultcode, etc. The problem is either in the proxy
server itself, or the server you're trying to talk to.

The only way to not have scrollbars over the content (or to only have
vertical, but not all the time) is to do scrollbar management yourself
rather than relying on Flex's inbuilt methods of handling it. This is a
decision made by the Flex team to avoid having to double measure() stuff
when adding s

The problem with getting no data through is because you're using a
non-dynamic object. Use:
var params : Object =
{
paramName: paramValue,
param2Name: param2Value
};
The reason is that the service code uses something like:
for(var key:* in params)
{
request.addParam(key, params[key]);
}
Then I'd use a custom component instead of itself, rather
than trying to shoehorn stuff into the existing DateField impl. It just
seems like you're setting yourself up for way more work than you need to is
all.
The order I'd try is:

Thanks Doug, there's a bunch of good ideas in there!
Now all I need to do is get this flaming move over and done with, and one
day I might even get my DSL reconnected :)

I don't think updateDisplayList is the right place to be doing drawing into
graphics, although I may be wrong. I usually do it on the render or
updatecomplete event, but that might not be optimal either. Alex would know

The snippet "UIComponent('b0')" is attempting to cast the string 'b0' to a
UIComponent.
I'm not really sure what you're trying to do, but you may be looking for:
UIComponent(b0);
or:
UIComponent(this['b0']);
Could you post some more information on what you're trying to achieve?

What version of Flex are you using, what format is the date when it goes
into text, and how are you getting the results back? Have you checked the
text results coming from the server using something like Charles?
I don't have any experience with Blaze, but plenty with Flex's (occasionally
dodgey)
Components don't set explicitWidth and explicitHeight on themselves, they're
(optionally) set by the container, and actual sizing is set by the container
through setActualSize().
Override measure(), and set measuredWidth and measuredHeight to match your
label, and your problems may go away. Also i
Why bother extending it? Why not just build an MXML component consisting of
a DateChooser and a "Today" button in a vbox? Then either create methods in
your component that set values that the DateChooser binds to, or use
"customComponentInstance.dateChooser.selectedDate" or something similar to

he Labs wiki to updated it to that effect.
And the new ant tasks handle spaces in directories and constants just fine
now :)

Now that I've been corrected on what the weak listeners *actually* do, I
definitely agree on using weak references against long-life objects when
possible =)

Dammit, I think I had the wrong end of the stick WRT weak listeners. I
thought it was so keeping the listener alive didn't keep the listened object
alive, rather than the other way around.
My bad - I hate when that happens. Hope I didn't give anybody bad advice! :)

Why use weak references on singletons or things that are going to live the
life of the application? Not saying it's wrong, just interested in the
logic.
The timer code above is a great example of when you need a strong reference,
but a nasty example of how to use a timer! I *really* don't like the

That's a really good question, and one I'd very much like to know the answer
to as well :)
