[flexcoders] Re: ToolTipManager stops processing of styles and updates of the displaylist?
I don't like unanswered questions, so i'll answer it myself. It was actually a style-inheritence problem. My implementention had a lil' bug. But because of style inheritence, it seemed to work fine in the first context i used the component in. But using it in a second environment, the bug occoured.

[flexcoders] FXG: Rect radiusX, radiusY
I'm currently making my first steps with FXG. I really like the idea of using Illustrator for doing the graphical stuff and using the FXG markup in Flex. What i stumbled across was the generation of rects with rounded rounded corners. Why is Illustrator exporting a complex path? It's pretty hard to read and can be quite tripping for postproduction. Now the real question. Is the rounded rect converted into a path when the markup is coverted into code? So Illustrator is exporting properly regarding the real representation in Flex or is it something which seemed the appropriate solution for Illustrator as drawing tool? Best regards from Germany.

[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar, NavBar and selectedIndex - error in accessor implementation?
I found some weird implementation.
The inheritance hierarchie is at follows:
ToggleButtonBar - ButtonBar - NavBar
ToggleButtonBar overrides the accessors and mutators for _selectedIndex. But
why is the Accessor implemented in ToggleButtonBar like:
override public function get selectedIndex():int
{
return super.selectedIndex;
//return _selectedIndex;
}
It seems like this can cause a runtime error since 2 _selectIndex fields exist:
in ToggleButtonBar and NavBar and both are accessed.

Regaring the modelling of a domain, you should wrap your collection (Array, ListCollectionView, ArrayCollection, XMLListCollection...) in your own collection type.

[flexcoders] Re: How to set reference to parent?
It would be component.parent, not just parent unless you are working in the child's scope. A better way would be to register an eventlistener (don't forget to remove it if it's not necessary anymore) for the child in the parent's scope. Why? To me it's the same problem you might run into when working with the stage. Sometimes the stage and parent references might be null - that's the case when the child is not added.

[flexcoders] Re: Listeners and weak references
When u register an EventListener to en IEventDispatcher instance not using weak references, the object won't be garbage collected untill all references got null. This not only affects references by objects and arrays, but also eventlistener. Using weak references will allow the garbage collection to remove objects, even if there are eventlisteners left. But using weak references will also slow the machine down, if i remember right aboit 10clock cycles. Here's a blog entry u might want to read: http://www.onflex.org/ted/2008/09/useweakreferencesboolean-false.php I was using weak refernces heavily, but u don't have to. When u are using eventlistener as members of the instance, they don't have to be weak, since the whole object can be garbage collected. But, when u have for example a sprite instanciated in the scope of another object, u should for example use the eventlistener for Event.ADDED weak referenced. The other listeners will be added and removed depending on the state of sprite - an example; why should a sprite listen to mouse events, when it is not in the displaylist. Add the necessary listeners when it is on the stage. So it always depends on what u are doing. Best regards. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, iliev_niki [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a question on the weak references when adding a listener like this: btnSave.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBtnSaveClick, false, 0, true); I have found this approach with weak reference as an advise somewhere, but I would like to understand what happens really. If we add a listener specifying useWeakReference = true as in the example above, does this mean that the garbage collection might remove unexpectedly the event listener and the mouse event handling to stop working? When using weak reference for the event listener, is it needed to explicitly remove the event listener at some point in time? In general what is the best practice in this regard?

[flexcoders] Re: Extending Datagrid dynamically
I would think about the datastructure u use... an Array of mixed content is not necessarily the optimum. I for example would create a new datatype. If u need a certain formatted renderer even for complex data: implement an itemrenderer. A simple approach is to implementing a component which implements the necessary interfaces. Depending on the given column, the specific information is displayed. U can simply determine what should be displayed in the set data. Just lookup for the column and display what should be displayed. If u need fewer or lesser columns, use ActionScript.

[flexcoders] Re: Gosh what a state to be in..
Hm, actually i don't quite get the problem, i think. States should be used in my opinion to really abstract view-states. The state of the application should be stored in a domain model. If u have buttons - just register listeners for the interaction and let a controller decide what to to depending on the view state. As i understand your problem it's like you have different states, which not only refer to view states but als to states in terms of functionality which is bound directly to a statewhich i think leads to too much logic in view components... Or i just didn't get your intention right... Best regards --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Paul Andrews [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think I know the answer to this, but here goes.. Lets suppose I have an application with states A, B and C, plus the default. There are buttons in states A, B and default to switch the application to state C. That would be all fine and dandy, but once I have entered state C, I can press a button to leave state C and return to the state from whence it was called (A, B or default). Still, no problem with that, but I'd like to keep the context of the previous state so that when I return to state A (for example) from state C, I can present the same view as before. Similarly, it may be that state B is really a substate of A (state Ab, if you like), so returning to the status quo might be a bit more difficullt. Really speaking I just need a state/state context stack that I push and pop as I move from one state to the next and back. Anyone already done similar with a different approach? I know I could get away without the stack if I implemented variants of state C that took into account the 'calling' state, but it quickly becomes a nightmare. This is certainly doable, I'm just seeing if there's a tried and tested way of managing state contexts like this. Paul

[flexcoders] Re: Programmatically Determine if FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE has been dispatche
One way to do so:
private var dictionaty:Dictionary = new Dictionary();
private var button:Button = new Button();
protected function initializeComponent():void
{
this.button.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, onCreationComplete);
this.dictionary[this.button] = false;
}
function onCreationComplete(event:Event):void
{
if (event.target == this.button)
{
dictionary[this.button] = true;
}
Working this way you can allways test, wether the component-creation has been
completed or not.

[flexcoders] Custom [Bindable] declarerd accessors.
The simple approach for classes to offer databinding enabled properties is to
simply
declard the whole class as [Bindable].
To make full use of the feature instances/references to objects must be
declared as
[Bindable] as well.
Well, since it is said in the documentation to use custom bindings á la
[Bindable(myPropertyChanged)], i'll implement the properties that way.
When i have, let's say two properties, each having its own metadata tag
declaring the
property as [Bindable], do i have to declare the instances as [Bindable] by
using the
standard tag? Or must i explicitly declare the instance as [Bindable] by using
all custom
tags. It's works with [Bindable], but i'm asking for the clean implementation.
Example:
package {
public class DataBindingExample {
private var _propertyOne:String;
private var _propertyTow:String;
[Bindable(propertyOneChanged)]
public function get propertyOne():String { return this._propertyOne; }
public function set propertyOne(value:String):void {
if (this._propertyOne == value) return;
this._propertyOne = value;
this.dispatchEvent(new Event(propertyOneChanged));
}
[Bindable(propertyTowChanged)]
public function get propertyTow():String { return this._propertyTow; }
public function set propertyTow(value:String):void {
if (this._propertyTow == value) return;
this._propertyTow = value;
this.dispatchEvent(new Event(propertyTowChanged));
}
}
}
Do i have to declare it like:
[Bindable]
private var _dbe:DataBindingExample
or:
[Bindable(propertyTowChanged)]
[Bindable(propertyOneChanged)]
private var _dbe:DataBindingExample
?
I'm so curious! Best regards!

The reason is you can stack interfaces on top of each other allowing more

This interface is obvious. Any class that implements it needs eval() and
only eval. It's like a singleton declaration of implementation.
If you jammed this evel() method into IUIComponent, maybe all components
don't need eval. Make sense?
Also another good example of this type of interface in the flex framework
is IDataRenderer, it's only declared property is 'data'.

[flexcoders] Understanding component measuring
Hi there, since i realized that i don't fully understand compont measuring in custom UICmponent's, I wrote some tests. The Problem i face atm is: how to deal with deep hierachies of custom UIComponents. My current approach is setting the dimensions (width and height) additionally to the measureWidth and measureHeight in the component. My tests can be found here. I would really appreciate some input on my implementation and my thoughts. Here are the sources: http://florian.salihovic.info/flexcoders/ Best regards and thanks in advance.
[flexcoders] Re: Dimensions of a UIComponent are allways 0, 0?!
Sorry fpr the late reply,
my Problem is in fact not implementing teh measure() method. It is more the
problem how
to deal with composites and detecting changes of components that are embedded
in my
custom component.
My current strategy is dispatching an event when the displaylist of my embedded
composite changes in order to call measure of my container.
Example: i have a container which is a composite of my own list component. When
i
change the contents of my list, the diaplaylist of the list will be updated and
the container
will be informed in order to call measure. Layoutcontainers are now able
refresh the
layout with the right sizes.
Is that a good strategy or is there something else i missed to detect changes
in the
container automatically? Do i have to dispatch events by my own or is their
some kind of automatism i did not think of?
Best regards.

Hi,
Search the archives for this, I know I have explained it quite a bit. :)
If you can't find it there read up on Creating Custom Components.
You problem has to do with the fact you have not overridden measure() and
set measuredWidth and measuredHeight of you component.
If you don't do this, the layout manager will set the size of your component
to 0,0.

[flexcoders] Viewing massive data in charts
Hello everybody, i have a question which is not technical in first place. I'm more in a search for a pattern. The problem: i have a massive collection of objects (~35000 instance) which should be displayed in the charting components. But not all at once, just intervals which can be as big as the whole collection (similar to google finance: http://finance.google.com/finance). My Problem: is there a useful pattern? From my observation working with this massive amount of data i use, it demands quite some performance and it doesn't run that fluid. But i have seen some implementations which allways reset the dataprovider with a completely new collection which is sliced out of the original collection with all objects. This approach doesn't feel right though... Can anybody share some informationens or expiriences? Any input would be apprciated. Best regards!
[flexcoders] Re: Viewing massive data in charts
Running some tests i found out, that the DateTimeAxis doesn't refesh the minimum and maximum values for example. I tested with a dataset of objects which represented data for everyday in 2 years (~17900 instances). The recalculated min/max where displayed via trace one reset too late... it's seems like there is quite a lot to understand doing some more complex stuff with the chart components...

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Multiple webservice calls
(NOTE: I wrote this with the ability of italics so it may be a wee
bit confusing reading this.)
Assumptions: You are calling the same WS method with different
parameters.
Possible situation: You have a Zoo application in your Flex / AIR
application.
Lets say a zoo visitor is at the base state of your zoo when he/she
may click on any section of the zoo.
1) From the MXML page :: CLICK on the selection
(Ex: AnimalSelector.MXML)
2) Dispatch an Event as the AnimalSelectionEvent
AnimalSelectionEvent is a custom event to carry data
dispatchEvent(new AnimalSelectionEvent(SELECT_ANIMAL,
animalSelection);
3) The registered mediator to the MXML page hears the event in the
mediator registered to the MXML page
In the mediator constructor add an event listener
addEventListener( AnimalSelector.SELECT_ANIMAL, selectAnimal );
private function selectAnimal (event:AnimalSelectionEvent) : void
{
sendNotification(
ApplicationFacade.ANIMAL_INFORMATION_REQUEST, event.animalID );
}
4)Each notification will be heard by a command file
AnimalCommand.as
switch(notification.getName())
{
case ApplicationFacade.ANIMAL_INFORMATION_REQUEST:
proxy.loadAnimalInformation(notification.getName());
break;
}
5) Call the WS through the AnimalProxy
Build the URL for the WS call
Build the data parameters into an object
Send the parameters to ServiceProxy
6) call the WS ServiceProxy
Define the send method [Post || Get]
var service:HTTPService = new HTTPService;
service.method = sendMethod;
service.showBusyCursor = true;
service.url = url;
var token:AsyncToken = service.send(fullParams);
token.addResponder(responder);
responder is the AnimalProxy so the WS knows where to send the
results
7) AnimalProxy should have a results method to received the data
back from the WS
Place the data in a dataProvider
***Rinse and Repeat Time***
8) From AnimalProxy...still in the Results method
Send a notification for the next WS call
(Basically do steps 3- 7 how ever many times you need to call the WS)
sendNotification( ApplicationFacade.ANIMAL_HABITAT_REQUEST,
animalID );
THE END :)
~~
Reference
~~
Send a call to the WS to get animal information, habitat, and diet.
All of theses can be called from the same WS and the same method with
different parameters.
URL: http://localhost:8080/services/getAnimalDetails
http://localhost:8080/services/getAnimalDetails
Animal information WS call:
http://localhost:8080/services/getAnimalDetails?
http://localhost:8080/services/getAnimalDetails?
animal=liondata=information
Animal habitat WS call:
http://localhost:8080/services/getAnimalDetails?
http://localhost:8080/services/getAnimalDetails?
animal=liondata=habitat
Animal diet WS call:

Subject: [flexcoders] ItemRenderer returns empty Object instead of

I have two instances of mx:controls::List. Both use the same
ItemRenderer. A TypeError
occours, when i drop one item from one List into the other List. Instead
of the encapsuled
type (an instance of an interface, typed to the interface) just an empty
Ombject instance is
returned.
I implement mx.core.IDataRenderer,
mx.controls.listClasses.IDropInListItemRenderer and
mx.controls.listClasses.IListItemRenderer in my component. Here is the
code for the
overwritten data and listData Propertys:
private var _item:IPlayListItem;
private var _listData:BaseListData;
[Bindable(dataChange)]

return this._item;

Something i forgot to add:

Hello Alex,
dragMoveEnabled is making the difference. When i don't use any ItemRenderer the
called i
get [object PlayListItem] and the collections i wrapped in typed methods.
It seems like the DataGridDragProxy works not right, when dragMoveEnabled is
set to
false. Actually it does in my case as far as i can say.

Hello Alex,
dragMoveEnabled is making the difference. When i don't use any

get [object PlayListItem] and the collections i wrapped in typed

It seems like the DataGridDragProxy works not right, when
dragMoveEnabled is set to

I have two instances of mx:controls::List. Both use the same ItemRenderer. A
TypeError
occours, when i drop one item from one List into the other List. Instead of the
encapsuled

Ombject instance is
returned.
I implement mx.core.IDataRenderer,
mx.controls.listClasses.IDropInListItemRenderer and
mx.controls.listClasses.IListItemRenderer in my component. Here is the code for
the
overwritten data and listData Propertys:
private var _item:IPlayListItem;
private var _listData:BaseListData;
[Bindable(dataChange)]
override public function get data():Object {
return this._item;
}
[Bindable(dataChange)]
public function get listData():BaseListData {

[flexcoders] Inline EventListener in MXML tags - confusing description in Developers guide.
Quoted from Adobe Flex Developers Guide, page 78 However, it is best practice to use the addEventListener() method. This method gives you greater control over the event by letting you configure the priority and capturing settings, and use event constants. In addition, if you use addEventListener() to add an event handler, you can use removeEventListener() to remove the handler when you no longer need it. If you add an event handler inline, you cannot call removeEventListener() on that handler. - End of Quote - What i think is a little bit confusing is, that it's said that inline EventListener can't be removed?

[flexcoders] Understanding DataGridColumn#sortCompareFunction with composite custom classes
I'm currently working with a custom classes which are composites. I display the
needed
data via custom ItemRenderer which extends the mx.controls.Text component. It
works
pretty nice and is pretty flexible. But i need to sort my data as well. After
some researches
i learned to implement a custom sortCompareFunction. My current implementation
works
just like the following in a class subclassing
mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn:
/* Begin */
protected function compare(arg1:CustomClass, arg2:
CustomClass):int {
if (!super.dataField) {
return 0;
}
return 1;
if (arg1.hasOwnProperty(super.dataField)
arg2.hasOwnProperty(super.dataField)) {
return
ObjectUtil.stringCompare(arg1[super.dataField].toString(),
arg2[super.dataField].toString(), true);
}
// property is a known property of the custom class
if (arg1.property.hasOwnProperty(super.dataField)
arg2.property.hasOwnProperty(super.dataField)) {
return
ObjectUtil.stringCompare(arg1property[super.dataField].toString(),
arg2.property[super.dataField].toString(), true);
}
return 0;
}
/* End */
But i get the error message:
Error: Find criteria must contain at least one sort field value.
Where do i have to set it?
Any examples of sorting custom object hierachies in DataGrid controls would be
appreciated.
Best regards!

So would it be alright from the perspective of modelling the

I thought that the treedatadesciptor would be responsible melting the

otherwise one part of the tree code will make changes that some other
part will not notice. Look at the default descriptor and see that it
caches the AC instances per node/children set

Subject: [flexcoders] ListCollectionView#removeAll wants to dispatch
undefined
Currently i write a lil' component to display class hierachies. I
wrote
my own
TreeDataDescriptor. SInce i work with my own class-, packages- and
interface-descriptor
classes to describe the structure, i encapsule some ArrayCollection.
In
order to display the
structures in a tree, i need to melt them together in one
ArrayCollection. So far so good...
Since i want not to create a new ArrayCollection everytime the
ITreeDataDescriptor#getChildren is called, i thought to create one
ArrayCollection and
remove all items when the function is called. I thought it would be ok
to create a new field
(typed: ArrayCollection) for the class. But actually the forces my
component to crash.
Here's the code:
precode
public function getChildren(node:Object,
model:Object=null):ICollectionView {
trace(this._className+#getChildren);
try {
if(node is PackageDescriptor) {
this._children.sort = null;
/*try {
this._children.removeAll();
this._children.refresh();
} catch (e:Error) {
trace(Error: +e.message)
} catch (e1:StackOverflowError) {
trace(StackOverflowError: +e1.message);
} catch (e2:CollectionViewError) {
trace(CollectionViewError: +e2.message);
} catch (e3:ArgumentError) {
trace(ArgumentError: +e2.message);
}*/
trace(\tnode.className: +PackageDescriptor(node).className);
this._children = new ArrayCollection();
var packageDescriptor:PackageDescriptor = PackageDescriptor(node);
for (var i:uint = 0; ipackageDescriptor.packages.length; i++) {
this._children.addItem(PackageDescriptor(packageDescriptor.packages.getI
temAt(i)));
}
for (var j:uint = 0; jpackageDescriptor.classes.length; j++) {
this._children.addItem(ClassDescriptor(packageDescriptor.classes.getItem
At(j)));
}
for (var k:uint = 0; kpackageDescriptor.interfaces.length; k++) {
this._children.addItem(InterfaceDescriptor(packageDescriptor.interfaces.
getItemAt(k)));
}
/*for (var l:uint = 0; lthis._children.length; l++) {
trace(\t\t+l+: +this._children.getItemAt(l).name);
}*/
return this._children;
}
} catch (e:Error) {
trace(Error: +e.message)
} catch (e1:StackOverflowError) {
trace(StackOverflowError: +e1.message);
} catch (e2:CollectionViewError) {
trace(CollectionViewError: +e2.message);
} finally {
return _children;
}
}/code/pre
So why is it at this point wrong to call removeAll to remove all
references from the
ArrayCollection instead of creating a new ArrayCollection all the
time?
The code above
compiles. If i uncomment the first try/ctach statement, the
application
crashes.
[flexcoders] Re: ListCollectionView#removeAll wants to dispatch undefined
Thanx for the reply!
So would it be alright from the perspective of modelling the application, that
i create a
field children in each class, that hold references to all of its childs that i
want to display?
I thought that the treedatadesciptor would be responsible melting the children
to display
together. But the classes themselves are responsible for providing an access to
the childs
to be displayed?
Sorry if my english ain't that good. I'm from Germany and i may need to refresh
grammar
and vocab ;)
Best regards!

[flexcoders] Re: ListCollectionView#removeAll wants to dispatch undefined
I really thought i got it - but i was wrong... i isolated my problem and
perhaps someone
could elaborate what i need to change and why.
Here are the srcs: [FONT=Century Gothic]Ich konnte den Fehler rekonstruieren
auch bei
einem anderen Modell feststellen. Ich glaube ich hab eine Blockade gerade.
Vielleicht mag
sich das nochmal jemand anschauen?

[flexcoders] flexTasks and asdoc
I'm just switched to ANT for building my flex projects and documentation but it seems like there are some things not working properly. When i run the html-wrapper, i don't get fullscreen default application container is usually get when compiling flex projects. Also when invoking asdoc via ANT, the @see tag won't work properly as well. Hyperlinks won't be generated - they're plain text. Is there also a way to generate include the inherited properties and functions? Best regards from Germany.
[flexcoders] flexTasks and asdoc
I just switched to ANT to build my Flex projects, but there are some things that don't seem to work properly. * The generated swf and wrapper using flexTasks seem not to be full screen (window document). Is there any way to fix this? * The asdoc tag @see does not generate hyperlinks - well, it generates some. * The asdoc tag @throw does not show the thrown error. * The asdoc tag @inheritDoc does not work at all.
