[flexcoders] getting the xml data from a dispatched event
I've got an problem when the user clicks on button "Add to Meal" it throws an
error because it can't seem to reference the data in mealDetails object inside
the com/ directory?
I'm trying to add the item to the list control.
I have the code located here in case you want more details
http://files.getdropbox.com/u/228472/mealsflex.zip
[Bindable]
private var customMeals:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection;
//throws error on this line
customMeals.addItem((event.target as mealitem).mealDetails);

[flexcoders] Re: reference xml using variable dynamically
Actually this works
nutritionXML.child(carousel).itemdata
NOT THIS
nutritionXML.child(carousel).child("itemdata")
the second one seems to give me back the first itemdata node not all of them
for the foreach, just an FYI for any future googler looking at this response
[flexcoders] Re: reference xml using variable dynamically
weird how adobe does that kind of thing, as I remember I used + sign to concat
a variable and string somewhere else but then they use no + sign ? Why the
inconsistency.
It works by the way

I'm using a e4x resultformat and returning from an httpservice a xml list of
items which works fine when i just use
for each(var item:Object in nutritionXML.breakfast.itemdata)

//DYNAMICALLY
var carousel:String;
carousel = "breakfast";
for each(var item:Object in
nutritionXML + [carousel].itemdata)
{

[flexcoders] render timing on coverflow
I've been using the coverflow render item, but now I need to move it from mxml
to actionscript so i started looking at what i can do and into addchild option.
I've not been successful in getting it to render my dynamic objects and im
guessing the coverflow has already rendered and wont display them because it
has to go through coverflow? How can i tell coverflow object to re-render ?
http://dougmccune.com/blog/2007/11/19/flex-coverflow-performance-improvement-flex-carousel-component-and-vertical-coverflow/
public function loadpanel(event:ResultEvent){
var panel_c:Panel = new Panel();
var label_c:Label = new Label();
if(event.result.info.title != ""){
panel_c.id = "panel1";
label_c.id="label1";
label_c.text = "WORKS";
coverflow.addChild(panel_c);
coverflow.addChild(label_c);
}

[flexcoders] Re: simple array?
var records:Array = new Array({
"AC": "Remember to reset the station address.",
"RN": "Remember to reset the station expiration date.",
"CP": "Remember to contact contractor to remove the
certificates from this station.",
"CR": "Remember to cancel the refund payment."
});
for each(test:Object in records){
//HERE we match up PAYMENT TYPE CODE with AC RN CP if one is a match we show
the value
if(grid.selectedItem.PAYMENT_TYPE_CODE == test[i])
Alert.show(SHOW ME --->"Remember to reset the station address" );
}
datagrid hidden column AC, RN, CP are in datagrid
user selects RT item from grid and hits button
system match's that row with what message should be displayed
user never see's RT since its a hidden field in grid
user now see's a message displayed as a reminder

Thanks but i dont know how to do a compare based on your example show?
for(var i:uint = 0; i < records.length; i++) {

if(payment_grid.selectedItem.PAYMENT_TYPE_CODE == records.valueof ){
Alert.show(records[0].addresschange);
}

I put that into a try catch statement and still get the
ReferenceError: Error #1069
but it's working now? Should i be concerned with the error
I tried only one line to less complicate things
try{
this["public_" + whichmeal + "_image1"] = urlpath +
createmeal_http.lastResult.breakfast.itemdata[id].imgsource;
}catch(err:Error){
Alert.show(err.toString());
}

[flexcoders] dynamic labels with public variable
I'm trying to set a set of labels but its based on public variable whichmeal.
Is there a special way to use these labels dynamically?
try{
this["public_{whichmeal}_item1_label"] = item1_label.text;
this["public_{whichmeal}_serving1_label"] = serving1_label.text;
}catch(err:Error){
Alert.show(err.toString());
}
Shows
Reference Error 1069
Reference Error 1056

[flexcoders] module loading and progress load slow?
loading modules I've been rearranging my application to use modules to reduce load time and prepare it to handle later larger development etc... All is well I've got it loading modules and such and learned a lot over the past few days. I have several modules that have large images it uses with source= and some other swf's it loadsI prefer not to allow caching since these items change a lot. On a localhost connection (dev) It can take 10 seconds to load the module etc. At first I thought it was needing a preloading technique that adobe offers so i tried that to load while the app loaded etc.. no go then i tried to see if i could add a progress bar on top of the module loading so the user is at least informed but to my dismay it loads too fast for the progress bar to show up heres the size of the swif being loaded 364K 2009-04-23 13:54 nutrition.swf the images and other swfs that load into this module are about 1-2 megs total. If i avoid using modules it loads on localhost almost instantly :( I have a feeling the source = for images and swf loading is whats dragging it to load fast. What options do i have for either preloading quicker for this module? Is it possible that my custom component is causing this performance issue? http://dougmccune.com/blog/2007/11/19/flex-coverflow-performance-improvement-flex-carousel-component-and-vertical-coverflow/ anyone had this kind of issue with rendering slow? sources used already are: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=modular_5.html http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=modular_6.html

[flexcoders] loading swf's dynamically
I'm using the below to load swf files dynamically, but the user of course must download the files fast enough for it to go from the first swf to the next without chopping. Is there a way to preload the items into the application without playing them or embeding them ? my goal is to preload the swf's while the app loads or on initial load then play them when ready using an event, any suggestions would be great

Thanks To show the example i used an Array collection but in reality im using httpservice populating the grid. So would setItemAt() still work your code works perfect for Array example but i get an error on setting the httpservice dataprovider search_cert_refund_dataprovider.setItemAt(oSelectedItem,iIndex); remember im only changing the data in the grid so i can later loop it to post back to my code. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Tracy Spratt" wrote: > > It is not taking a long time to display, it will never display. > > > > The problem is with the way you are updating the dataProvider.

[flexcoders] Re: Slow datagrid updates
Thanks for your reply Tracy, no i currently am not using renders in the grid just a simple two column grid which has a value changed upon button click and I'm not using Vbox just absolute layout. the reason i dont care about undo is that the user can change the value back by just clicking the button again. i dont see anything that might throw off the grid but i'm going to try to just put the grid into its own canvas and test it with only a few items instead of this entire application. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Tracy Spratt" wrote: > > That is not normal behavior.

[flexcoders] Re: geting info of a user who has loged in
yes just pass the info back to the httpservice
maybe this example will help you
http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/10/29/passing-parameters-to-an-httpservice/
you call the httpservice upon login button clicked
login.send();
and then the httpservice provider passes the login to your backend code
{name.text}
{password.text}

[flexcoders] Slow datagrid updates
I'm using a datagrid with httpservice then allowing the user to click on an item in the datagrid. once they select the datagrid item they then hit a button which updates the value in the grid like this, mccert_refund_grid.selectedItem.CERTPRESENT = "NOT PRESENT"; trouble is the datagrid takes almost 20-30 seconds to update it i kinda need this to happen instantly since its all locally cached it should be fast. i looked into datagrid refresh but my understanding is that is for the dataprovider, and im not trying to refresh the data that would over right their changes they made. when all is said and done they will be able to hit another button to save results back to the database. so how come this is taking so long to change values?

[flexcoders] Re: getChildByName using it to get the value of a textbox
Can i loop through the items in that object
example
for each(var items:String as dynamicallyCreatedComponents){
var t:TextInput = dynamicallyCreatedComponents[items] as TextInput;
Alert.show(t.text); //THROWS ERROR
}
I was hoping to set the array key dynamically and loop through it later?
can this be done Gordan

[flexcoders] Re: getChildByName using it to get the value of a textbox
Because the items are not in MXML its in actionscript which
dynamically creates the items for my form from a database and i want
to dynamically loop the text box's so i can then save the data back to
the database.
you cant refer to a ID since the components are created at runtime

Thanks a lot for the reply...
turns out i get an error 1009 when i try to something as simple as an
alert
var test:TextInput = TextInput(this.getChildByName("inputtext" + a));
Alert.show(test.text.toString());

[flexcoders] using dynamic variables in flex?
I want to have a dynamic variable in actionscript
//skey is a label which should contain the xml node VALUE
skey.text =
'reftables_additem_load_dataprovider.lastResult.DATARESULTS.VER_DATA.' +
stringfunctions.toString();
Alert.show(skey.text);
Currently it shows
reftables_additem_load_dataprovider.lastResult.DATARESULTS.VER_DATA.VEHI\
CLE_SKEY
which is correct behavior but now how do i use that text as a dynamic
variable like?
heres my current code
var stringfunctions:String = new String();
var searchfor_skey:Number = new Number();
stringfunctions = columnData.field;
//search for primary key
searchfor_skey = stringfunctions.indexOf("SKEY", 0);
if(searchfor_skey != -1){
//we got the skey column now store the value in the text box
for http service later when saving !
skey.text =
reftables_additem_load_dataprovider.lastResult.DATARESULTS.VER_DATA. +
searchfor_skey.toString();
Alert.show(skey.text); //shows just string
Alert.show(reftables_additem_load_dataprovider.lastResult.DATARESULTS.VE\
R_DATA.VEHICLE_SKEY); //WORKS showing value?
}
[flexcoders] Re: How long to build a Flex app....
It really depends on the flex coder since each coder could take longer depending on thier understanding of the project and database functions etc...and whether or not they are building the middleware code too? We have an app with about 30 tabs and over 600 objects total on the flex code, and about 1400 lines in mxml and 3500 lines in action script. It took me about 1 month and im the only developer and im also developing the middleware and database writes with php too. The more you do the more you learn and faster too. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Alan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I know this is a pretty broad question... > > I'm new to Flex, and having fun with it, but I'd like to get an idea > how long these things take to make. > > Instead of me trying to pitch a hypothetical situation, maybe anyone > interested in answering could describe an app they made > and how long it took and maybe even some juicy gossip about crazy > clients. > > Thanks, > > Alan >
[flexcoders] Hotkey Class type variable for certain labels
I've got several labels which shouldnt be shown on screen but if a user hits a hotkey it would be nice to show them, what im wondering... Is there a way to tag these items with a class like in Html so i can have a function trigger the visible field on and off. I know i can reference the ID but I was wondering if theres a class like also available then i wouldnt have to reference every id flag for all objects which are about 500 or so.

[flexcoders] how to handle pausing or selecting an item on datagrid with a wait
I'm trying to have action script handle selecting an item on the datagrid then loading a httpservice already defined. The code works in terms of selecting the item on the grid but only works on a second call ...it's almost like i need a pause in between the selectedIndex and the http service call. I also tried selecteditem but that doesnt work at all, at least i have it working on a second call but just wondering how to handle the call on the first try. stations_info_request.send(); //this sends off the http service station_searchgrid.selectedIndex=0; //this selects the item in the grid stationsearchgrid_click.send(); //this sends off the http service which gets a primary key from the selected item on the grid FAILS HERE !

[flexcoders] Ok i was able to isolate why the error occurs maybe this will help you
Ok i was able to isolate why the error occurs if i reference an object which is in the tabnavigator and that tab is not selected it will throw an error but if i reference a checkbox on the current selected tab its fine?
[flexcoders] Re: working with resulthandler httpservice and referencing lastresult?
Tracy im confused? you keep mentioning my data from XML but that is
working fine like i said i am able to comment out the line throwing
the error and use alert.show and it works fine...
but this line event.result.DATARESULTS.SEVEND_ALOWED; will not work
for me and never has i think the reason is because you do it under
resultformat="e4x" and i do it as the default Object for httpservice
you mention i have to loop? i dont loop any results for binding?
ALL I do is return this XML from php
XYZ12345
and then bind like this
{httpservice_loadstationinfo.lastResult.DATARESULTS.STATION_ID}
And it works fine
Why would anyone not want to use object by default from Flex which is
so much less effort then conversion of XML like you just showed me?
Have you used the objects and ran into something that i have not?
or do you use it for another reason?
I just want to set a checkbox from actionscript? can this be done ?
i would think it would be syntax like this
OBJECT_ID.selected = true

Actually i know its not since i put in

[flexcoders] referencing inside resulthandler error 1009
when trying to reference a item on the flex form inside a
resulthandler from an httpservice i run into error 1009 cannot access
method or property
example stationslicense_7D throws the error below
public function stationloadResult(event:ResultEvent){
var result:Object = event.result;
//stationslicense_7D is a checkbox item
if(event.target.lastResult.DATARESULTS.SEVEND_ALOWED == "N"){

}
[flexcoders] working with resulthandler httpservice and referencing lastresult?
im very lost when i need to handle things in the resulthandler from an

heres what i got Not working
public function stationloadResult(event:ResultEvent){
var result:Object = event.result;
if(event.lastResult.DATARESULTS.SEVEND_ALOWED == "N")
Alert.show("sevenD not allowed");
else
Alert.show("sevenD is allowed");
}
im trying to understand how to handle referencing the httpservice when
it finishes loading data i can manipulate the flex front end while
looking at specific return data?
hope that makes sense.
