[flexcoders] FlexBuilder / eclipse Question
Hi FlexBuilders! I was wondering if there is an option or way to automatically return to the development perspective when you shut down the debugger? So if you do terminate (Ctrl-F2) on the app in the debugger, you would immediately swap back over to development perspective the same way you earlier swapped to debugger perspective when you hit the debug button? Thanks for this and all your past help on this forum. Libby
[flexcoders] FlexBuilder Question
What option is it that, when you close a file, causes the Navigator to switch focus back to the previous area you were in before you opened the file? It doesn't do this in FlexBuilder plugin in eclipse, but it does it in regular FlexBuilder and it drives me crazy! not that I had that far to go... :)
[flexcoders] Which rows in a datagrid contain modified items (and which don't) ?
Hi, People I have a datagrid where user can modify a few rows out of 200 - 500 then click save. I only want to hit the database with the changed rows. Is there a technique whereby I can identify the dirty rows, pluck them out, and ship only them off to the database, without going thru and comparing column by column, row by row? Thanks, Libby
[flexcoders] Running multiple copies of FlexBuilder Help window - is it possible?
Hi Peoples. Many times I want to read two topics in help at once and would like to have multiple copies of the ASDocs up. It seems like you could go to the asdoc folder on ur hard drive and invoke something, but so far I have not been able to figure out how to do this. I cannot always be connected to the 'net so the Live Docs are not always an option. If anyone knows how to do this, please advise here. Thanks, Libby

[flexcoders] comboBox in datagrid
Hi People Maybe someone could remind me, I've done this before but apparently now have so much knowledge in my brain that the old stuff is getting pushed out : ) I have a ComboBox itemEditor in a datagrid. The datagrid dataprovider is bound to an arrayCollection which among other things contains the values that are identified as code in the comboBox. When the remote data comes in, the comboBox is displaying the code value rather than the label value. When I click the comboBox, my label property is found and the combobox correctly displays the label for the underlying code. So the issue is, when the combobox first gets the data, it needs to run the label displaying code, and it isn't. What am I forgetting? and... thanks!
[flexcoders] Re: comboBox in datagrid
no, I 'm saying my comboBox displays whats in its data part of its array
collection, not its label, when it receives a new batch of data. Your checkbox
appears to do the same thing.

[flexcoders] Re: comboBox in datagrid
I wish...no, I'm using labelField in one and a labelFunction in another one,
but these are not invoked until you actually click on the dropdown. Thus, when
data is first retrieved into the dropdown, the darned thing is displaying the
data field rather than the label: field. Should I be firing off something to
force the dropdown to update when the data comes in?

[flexcoders] Finding out the size of a component when everything is relative?

[flexcoders] Re: Finding out the size of a component when everything is relative?
actually the canvas is wrapped because the screen is too small (not mazimized). I need to know how much real estate the wrapped canvas is occupying. So far I can'r find any evidence internally that it is wrapped. I need to know the actual x,y of the lowest corner of it I guess. But how? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Michael Schmalle [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, The properties with $ signs mean they are wrapped and mx_internal. The $height and $width are the actual Flash Player version of height and width. At what point are you trying to get the height and width? Do you know for sure the canvas has children and has been measured and updated? If you can see the canvas (with children), there is no way the width and height will be zero. The borderColor property help with debugging to actually see the canvas if it has no borderStyle, set to solid.

I have tried all the relevant DisplayObject and DisplayObjectContainer methods on the return value from ViewStack.getSelectedItem() but no luck. Could someone give me a hint, or a tiny example? Thanks, Libby
[flexcoders] ViewStack.addChild() / createChild()
Hello In 1.5 I was adding complex components to a viewstack by doing addChild(nameOfMXMLObject). This of course does not work in Flex 2.0. I have been trying unsuccessfully to do viewStack.createChild(nameOfMXMLObject). Should this be working or what is the correct method to dynamically add children to a viewstack in 2.0?

[flexcoders] FlexBuilder 2.0 - null pointer exception when you try to create a new project
This is happening to multiple developers when they try to create a new Flex Project on the shared server. Flex Builder takes you thru the entire dialog, then when you click OK, churns for a minute, then pops up a message - Failed to create project and in the details it helpfully says java.lang.nullpointer exception.

[flexcoders] A file found in a source-path must have the same package structure
I am attempting to migrate a very big Flex 1.5 project and this is one
of the issues I am hitting. I have stripped out all of the files in
the package, and all of the code in the offending file, but still get
this message. I can only assume that I am not understanding what
package structure FlexBuilder is looking for. I am not using scripts
to compile, only FB. I looked in Flex_config.xml and there is no
reference to my files, just the lines below:
!-- list of path elements that form the roots of ActionScript class
hierarchies --
source-path
path-element./user_classes/path-element
/source-path
!-- list of SWC files or directories that contain SWC files --
library-path
path-element./user_classes/path-element
path-element./libs/path-element
path-element./locale/{locale}/path-element
/library-path
Do the packages need to be under the [source path] user_classes
folder? Mine are in their own package structure, in WebContent, beside
this [source path] user_classes entry.
So in FB my application looks like this:
FlexProject
- [source path] user_classes
--- add_your_as_and_swc_files_here
- folder1
- - folder2
- - - folder3
- - - - folder4
- - - - - folder5 [contains .as files]
- - - - - folder6 [contains .as files]
- - - - - folder7 [contains .as files]
- - - - - folder8 [contains .mxml files]
appName.mxml
Is there a tutorial somewhere that describes how to set up a
structured project using actionscript files, or could someone steer me
in the right direction here?
Thanks,
Libby

[flexcoders] Flex 1.5 - How to Dynamically Size Text Control?
I have a Text control (in a VBox with other controls) that sometimes has a long multi-line message other times has a short single line one. I can make the control taller by extending the height= property. But later, when I change height to a smaller number, the control does not change to the smaller size. I have tried things like LayoutManager.invalidateSize(), etc. but nothing works. Could someone point me in the right direction or perhaps provide a link to an example? Also I want the Text control's minimum width to be the same as the other controls in the VBox, even if it is empty. Flex insists on making the width just a few bytes wide, even if I put width=100%.

[Event(select)]
/mx:Metadata
Where is this event actually caught or handled? I have read thru all
the files several times and cannot find it.
The reason I am looking is that in my Master/Detail screen, when
Master updates the Model, the Detail, that is bound to the model,
doesn't notice it. I think I need to broadcast that a change has

[flexcoders] Re: Cast Object Name from string then do object.function() - is it possible?
Since Flex' compiler thinks objectA is just a vanilla Object, it
complains that bar() is an unknown method. That was why i needed to
cast the real object to ObjectA. So how do I get this to work without
importing every one of the hundred mxml files that could get passed in?
--- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, JesterXL [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
You don't need to cast via a function, you can do that already.
While this
works:
objectA = ViewStack.getChildAt(0);
objectA.bar();
Since Flex' compiler thinks objectA is just a vanilla Object, thus
can't
imply it's type. However, if you want strict-typing, you can do:
objectA = object1(ViewStack.getChildAt(0));
objectA.bar();
This assumes object1 is an imported class.

In Flex is there a way to pass an object name into a method and then
cast that name to another object in order to execute a method on that
object ?
foo(myMxmlObjectName);
function foo(object1:String) {
var objectA:UIComponent;
objectA = object1(ViewStack.getChildAt(0));
objectA.bar();
}
Thanks,
Libby

[flexcoders] Re: Cast Object Name from string then do object.function() - is it possible?
OK so if I want to do strict typing, there is not a way to pass in the
class name I want to cast ObjectA to, then create the class
template, and then cast it (the template) to ObjectA?

Since Flex' compiler thinks objectA is just a vanilla Object, it
complains that bar() is an unknown method. That was why i needed to
cast the real object to ObjectA. So how do I get this to work without
importing every one of the hundred mxml files that could get passed in?

You don't need to cast via a function, you can do that already.
While this
works:
objectA = ViewStack.getChildAt(0);
objectA.bar();
Since Flex' compiler thinks objectA is just a vanilla Object, thus
can't
imply it's type. However, if you want strict-typing, you can do:
objectA = object1(ViewStack.getChildAt(0));
objectA.bar();
This assumes object1 is an imported class.

[flexcoders] Could someone point me to an example of validator.hasErrors()
I can't find an example and I guess I don't understand how it is to be
used from actionscript.
I am expecting to be able to do something like this:
if(theDocument.validators.myValidator.hasErrors()) {
// handle it;
}
but I can't figure out how to get there from here.

[flexcoders] Re: Could someone point me to an example of validator.hasErrors()
Ok, 2 questions - 1, how do you know that, is it written down
somewhere where I can look it up, and 2, if you have extended the
validator then in order to do this you would need to overload the
validate() function, right?

[flexcoders] Re: Question about Enable / Disable Validator
What if you have several documents of the same name open? Would you have instantiated a viewHelper for each one? Otherwise when referring to the document by name from the viewHelper, how would you know which open document you are actually addressing? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Michael Herron [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From a cairngorm View Helper you should usually use syntax like: mx.validators.Validator.disable(view, modelName.elementName); There isn't really a current document in flex, the first argument you need to provide is just a reference to the document that the mx:Model you are validating against was declared on.

[flexcoders] Can you hardcode a debug breakpoint in flex scripts?
Some programming environments (like Powerbuilder) allow you to put a statement into your script like debugBreak(), which allows execution to stop at that point (in debug mode) every time until such time as you delete the statement. Since Flexbuilder is always helpfully deleting my breakpoints, this would be a real time saver. Is there such a thing built in? Thanks, Libby Yahoo!

[flexcoders] Re: Usage of CreateClassObject CreateComponent
This works of course, using the Flex builtin objects. But how do I do
this (instantiate) using a .mxml file containing instances of those
builtin objects? I want to generate a portion of the screen at run
time that was previously created as a .mxml file. Just before I
generate it I will build the init object based on what is happening in
the app. I am trying to do this using createChild and it runs but
nothing paints on screen.

Subject: [flexcoders] Usage of CreateClassObject CreateComponent
Can you use these methods (CreateClassObject and/or CreateComponent)
inside of a class to create a mxml compound object? It doesn't work
for me but that doesn't mean much : )
If it is possible to do this, a snippet example would be very helpful
as I have about given up.
Thanks,

[flexcoders] Good code just stops working with no changes...
I have Model Binding set up so that when user clicks on a row in a datagrid, the row is copied to textfields on the screen for editing by the user. This works fine for several days, then, without changing anything, it just stops working. I try to run it thru the debugger and it appears that the model-related listeners are not being created as the code using the breakpoints is never even called. I also have validators on the file for the same model, and they will suddenly stop working. I think this is some kind of file compile time issue or something because sometimes I can go into the offending files and type a few spaces and save out of them, which causes everything to start working again. Other times this does not help. Has anyone encountered this and if so, what was your solution? It is driving me nuts!! : ) thanks, Libby Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Fair play?

Hi,
ActionScript doesn't support method overloading. Instead you can use
following approach.
function sayHello()
{
var n:Number = arguments.length;
if(n==0)
{
alert(Hello World);
}
else if(n==1)
{
alert(Hello + arguments[0]);
}
else if(n==2)
{
alert(Hello + arguments[0] + + arguments[1]);
}
}
//usage:
sayHello();
sayHello(Abdul);
sayHello(Abdul, Qabiz);
You can access individual argument using arguments array. You can use
typeof and instanceof to find the type of each argument and have a
switch logic to perform different algorithm for different set of
arguments.
Does that make sense?

[flexcoders] Re: How to create a binding from within an actionscript class file - Impossible?
I am trying to get a user message to display from within a validation class. When validation fails I want to retrieve the appropriate message so that it shows up in the default message display generated by Validator class. Thus, I do not know how I can bind to the mouseover message area from the view, it seems to me only the Validation class knows which field to bind to, at run time. Undoubtably this issue has been solved many times by you guys so please help me understand what I am doing --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, kaibabsowats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I dont believe binding is a good use in the instance. What is the string in the class file used for? Is it used in displaying something? If so the value should probably be in the Model and bound to the View and not in a Class. Is it used for class logic? Probably better to take a step back and disect what you are trying to accomplish. One way (not necessarily good) is to pass a reference to a function in the class as a parameter of the Event object in the EventBroadcaster call. Then set this function reference in the execute method of the Command object to a private attribute. Then in the onResult method call use this attribute to return a call back to your class file with the data you want set. This is a lot of coupling and you really should look at what you are trying to accomplish before going this route.
