[flexcoders] local file access thru HTTPService fails
Hi all this seems like such a simple thing, and yet ... my project currently lives in the directory My Documents/Flex Builder 2/xmlshow and works fine. If I take the entire directory and copy it to my desktop, and then open xmlshow_app.html it no longer works. Specifically it doesn't load my file (voucherXML.xml) thru HTTPService. I repeat, this works fine UNTIL I copy the doirectory elsewhere. Is this a crossdomain issue? I've tried, experimentally, adding a crossdomain.xml file in the dame directory as the swf and it doesn't work.

RE: [flexcoders] Class-based model as a dataprovider
Hi, I didn't receive Lachlan's reply earlier (I'm obviously not receiving everything from the group :/) So I'll reply to both of you here, ok? Tracy: I realise that the XML class is a dom, but that doesn't allow me to have TYPED entities, does it? Also with classes I can include validation code, etc. in the getters/setters. I can't do this with the XML class, can I? --- Lachlan: Yes, I am trying to unmarshal the XML into custom classes as you say. A bit of background wouldn't hurt ... The XML describes a document where each line is EITHER some text, OR (up to 3) graphics, OR a barcode, or a couple of other entities. It's all XML, nodes and attributes, but not very regular. A line/node could look like: text alignment=centred font=A charheight=2 emphasis=bName: field key=fullname//text OR graphics valign=middle image alignment=leftvicdpi.jpg/image image alignment=rightsunset.jpg/image /graphics OR barcode type=code128 alignment=centred height=16field key=pin//barcode So that each line needs a different customItemRenderer. Since the document is discretely line-based in structure, I thought a 1-column datagrid suited it well. I tried dynamically rendering elements (in form structures) thru AS, but that proved to be pretty messy ... I could go back to it, but I'd rather not. Yeah, I figured ICollectionView but I'm not actually sure how to assign it ... I've discovered Aral Balkan's notes on Designing Data Models, that might clear it up for me.

Once again, Gordon takes the cake for the best clear and
conciseexplanation of a topic. I have read at least 20 descriptions of
thisstuff today and this is the first one that has made complete
sense.(The others ranged from 'almost getting it' to 'no clue what the

"Gordon Smith" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is a major
contribution from Adobe to the open-source community, but let me try
to clarify what it is and what is isn't. The code being open-sourced
is for the core AS3 language, not for anything specific to Flash. The
contributed engine is able to execute a program that uses core classes
of the language like Array, Date, RegExp, and XML. It is not be able
to execute a program that use Flash-specific classes like Sprite,
TextField, SharedObject, or URLLoader. In particular it supports no
Flash graphics. Mozilla will use this engine by adding
browser-DOM classes such as Window, Document, Form, Anchor, etc.,
which are the "domain objects" that a browser manipulates, in the same
way that Flash uses this engine by adding classes for its domain
objects such as Sprites. Once this is done, webapp developers will be
able to use AS3/ES4 as a fast, type-checked, object-oriented
"_javascript_" if they want to. So this has nothing to do with
putting Flash into Firefox. Firefox users will still require the Flash
plugin to run SWFs. But contributing a high-performance virtual
machine for a type-checked, object-oriented language is still a big
deal! - Gordon

Is there a way to draw (thicker) vertical lines between two columns. In the diagram above that would mean a thicker separator line between say, the Value and Amount columns.

[flexcoders] writing an XML editor ... or trying to
Ok, I'm trying to write an XML editor to edit stuff like this ...
public var myXML:XML =
document key=fish label_1=p1 label_2=p3 p4
graphics valign=middle
image alignment=left filename=dpi/
/graphics
line width=3/
text alignment=centred font=A charheight=2
emphasis=bFishing/text
line width=3/
text/
text alignment=centred font=A charheight=2
charwidth=2field key=knob/ twiddle/text
document;
-
Now, I like the idea of using a DataGrid (the alternating colour rows make the
XML easy to compartmentlise and read, so that you're editing each one as a
separate entity.
My first question is, can each row of a DataGrid have a separate and different
custom ItemRenderer/Editor?
My second question is with the following component, which is the custom
itemRenderer that I've been working on ...
(The text field is currently set to debugging values, rather than the final
string it will hold.)
mx:Component id=textEditorRenderer
mx:VBox width=100% height=100% horizontalAlign=center
mx:TextInput id=textEdCustRend width=100% height=100%
fontStyle={([EMAIL PROTECTED] == 'i') ? 'italic' : 'normal'}
fontWeight={([EMAIL PROTECTED] == 'b') ? 'bold' : 'normal'}
textDecoration={([EMAIL PROTECTED] == 'u') ? 'underline' :
'none'}
textAlign={([EMAIL PROTECTED] == 'left') ? 'left' : (([EMAIL
PROTECTED] == 'centred') ? 'center' : 'right')}
text=[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]/
/mx:VBox
/mx:Component
Now while the ternary operators used for fontStyle, fontWeight, textDecoration,
and textAlign work fine - the following ones in the scaleX and scaleY fields
don't work when @charwidth or @charheight is empty.
scaleX={([EMAIL PROTECTED] == '') ? Number(1.0) :
Number([EMAIL PROTECTED])}
scaleY={([EMAIL PROTECTED] == '') ? Number(1.0) :
Number([EMAIL PROTECTED])}
Any clues?
Ta.

[flexcoders] Can a Tree node/leaf have a customItemRenderer?
The subject says it all - can a tree node, especially a leaf, have a customItemRenderer? What I'd like to do is have a tree for navigating an xml structure and then populate leaves (say) by using a combobox or some other renderer ... if anyone's ever used the Magnolia CMS ... you'll understand the paradigm that I'm considering (even though Magnolia doesn't use ComboBoxes, per se).

Re: RadioButtons as customItemRenderers/Editors in

Hi John,
To get the RadioButtons inside an itemRenderer to work together, you need
to associate them with a common RadioButtonGroup. Place this tag right
above theDataGrid in your application:
mx:RadioButtonGroup
id="myRadioButtonGroup"/
Then,use code like this inyouritemRenderer:
mx:RadioButton id="myRadioButton"
group="{parentApplication.myRadioButtonGroup}"/

[flexcoders] Populating Tree from XML thru HTTPService - agony

node label=Calendar date=03-07-2006/
node label=Sent date=04-07-2006/
node label=Trash date=05-07-2006/

can anyone explain why the following code works (pretty much):
mx:XML source=treexmldatastruct.xml id=myMenuStruct format=e4x/
mx:XMLListCollection id=myMenuStructListColl source={myMenuStruct.*}/
mx:Tree id=firstList showRoot=false dataProvider={myMenuStructListColl}
labelField=@label /
while the following does *not*:
mx:HTTPService id=treeModel url=treexmldatastruct.xml resultFormat=e4x
showBusyCursor=true fault=mx.controls.Alert.show('Could not get xml
Info!!!') /
also using:
result=firstList.dataProvider=treeModel.lastResult.*
in the HTTPService doesn't help, instead of the decalring the dataProvider in
the Tree doesn't seem to change anything.
In fact, I'm kinda fuzzy about the whole lastResult / event.result methods
anyway ... any pointers here? Or best practices?
Is using URLLoader instead an option?
Thanks

[flexcoders] IconFunction issue
Ok, here goes:
I'm trying to implement a Windows File Explorer-like interface to a data
repository. For the time being I'm assuming that I receive XML from some API.
So I'm using a static XML file for now, it's called treexmldatastruct.xml.
The problem I'm having is this ... I'd like the icons in my explorer interface
(which is implemented as a Tree) to be indicative of the filetype. I've created
icon files and written an IconFunction to do this and it works fine.
Except that branches of the Tree also wind up having their icons changed ... in
spite of the fact that I've defined a folderOpenIcon and a folderClosedIcon.
The docs claim that an IconFunction can't override these, but in fact it does
seem to be.
Here's the relevant code:
mx:Script
![CDATA[
[Embed(icon_jpeg.png)]
public var jpegSymbol:Class;
[Embed(icon_gif.png)]
public var gifSymbol:Class;
// etc, etc ... more image embeds here
private function myIconFunction(item:Object):Class {
var filetype:String = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
switch (filetype) {
case jpg:
return jpegSymbol;
break;
case gif:
return gifSymbol;
break;
// etc, etc ... more cases here
case normal:
return normalSymbol;
break;
default:
return normalSymbol;
}
return normalSymbol;
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:XML source=treexmldatastruct.xml id=myMenuStruct format=e4x/
mx:Tree id=firstList height=300 width=230 x=20 y=70
showRoot=true dataProvider={myMenuStruct}
labelField=@label
dragEnabled=true dropEnabled=true dragMoveEnabled=true
allowMultipleSelection=true
folderOpenIcon=@Embed(source='icon_open.png')
folderClosedIcon=@Embed(source='icon_closed.png')
iconFunction=myIconFunction/
The XML file treexmldatastruct.xml is:
?xml version=1.0?
node label=Mail date=27-06-2006
node label=Inbox date=28-06-2006/
node label=Personal Folder date=29-06-2006 filetype=
