There's an itemRenderer and itemEditor.  If you want to use the same, you say 
editable=true and there's another property rendererIsEditor=true (or might be 
editorIsRenderer - I always get it mixed up)

Try that.

Hi All,



someone said adobe will not support flex in 5 to 10 years time and hence it 
poses a threat to flex developers. 
I beg to deffer because we need to clearly distinct a vendor from her products. 
A vendor changes focus to another phase of technology 
does not mean the vendor will outrightly discard her old and stable 
products.Its discouraging though that flex will not practically evolve to a 
better 
framework if adobe denies support in the nearest future but the consolation is 
the relative strength,robustness and stability of the framework when compared 
with other RIAs

If technologies like cobol, powerbuilder,Vb6, classic ASP (though not RIAs) are 
still existing in the industry even though they are no longer in vogue
i dont see a framework that is rich, stable ,platform independent and shows 
cross browser compatibility  face out in the market at all.
Look, i cant imagine a standard browser (in existence or still to come) that 
will deny compatibility with flash and yet expect to be widely used?
No browser vendor will shoot herself on the leg by taking such a weak strategy.

If you see a possible end for flex, what would you say of silverlight? (lol) 
Yet silverlight users are optimistic that Microsoft will find 
a way to integrate the framework to all other browsers 

The advent of RIAs addresses a critical need that is so significant, it saves 
you from the hassles of html/JS/CSS in the areas of presentation consistency 
across browsers and business security (though .swf files can be decompiled but 
its not a piece of cake) and i strongly believe flex is the most powerful RIA 
in the market, i cant even compare zkoss with it.
Such frameworks are not abandoned, they come to stay !!!

I’ve never used COBOL, but I haven’t heard anyone say they really liked working 
in with it.  That’s not true for Flex so even if it gets marginalized because 
it always remains locked to ActionScript and FlashPlayer, it may not be the 
subject of cursing.

I’m not in disagreement that in the long term, the advantages of 
Flex/ActionScript/FlashPlayer will be diminished by advances in the HTML/CSS/JS 
stack.  That’s why Adobe has made a major strategic shift to become the tooling 
leader in the HTML stack.  But that doesn’t mean that you should stop using 
Flex/ActionScript/FlashPlayer right now.

Many folks who work with HTML/CSS/JS, even using the many libraries and 
development methodologies available for it, still feel like the Flex paradigm 
is superior.  Apparently, even Google agrees because they are trying to create 
their own version of that paradigm with DART.  While translated code is never 
as good, the productivity advantages of a better paradigm have been pretty much 
proven to be worth it, otherwise, Flex wouldn’t have been that successful 
either since MXML isn’t as efficient as pure ActionScript, and Google wouldn’t 
have invested so much in writing their website logic in Java and/or Google 
Closure and/or DART.

There is general support in the Apache Flex project for exploring ways of using 
the Flex paradigm to create HTML5 apps.  Those working on the project are 
motivated to future-proof their investment in Flex.  I don’t see any technical 
issue blocking us from translating the paradigm to HTML5, and I invite all 
those who like the Flex paradigm to participate.  But at the same time, there 
is lots of work to be done, lots of solutions to be built, and lots of money to 
be made on the Flex/AS/FP stack while we wait for the HTML5 stack to deliver on 
its promises.

Re: [flexcoders] Using Flex Cairnghorm microachitecture with .net class library

2011-11-16 Thread Tunde Majolagbe 
Fixed this !

I simply put my .net dll in my web-orb bin folder 

not in the root.
The generated flex code from web orb reads the 

.net dll from the bin folder not the root.

I believe this will help someone someday.

Hello All,
Has anyone used cairnghorm micro framework to write scripts that retrieves data 
from dot net dll. 

I cant connect my flex cairnghorm side with my dotnet code even after 
generating the required cairnghorm action script 

from the web orb console 

is there something wrong with my config file or  are my not setting a compiler 
parameter ?
[which is  " -services "services-config.xml" -locale en_US" ]

What can i be doing wrong?

Re: [flexcoders] HTTPService post to return an image?

2011-11-03 Thread Tunde Majolagbe 

Hello 

You cant send raw binaries via a http api 
two things i suggest you may do

1) convert your binary data  to hexadecimal (hex) Xters at the server site  and 
send it across the web as hex data then reconvert your  hex data to binaries on 
the browser.

2) Save the image on a path on the server, obtain the url to the path of the 
image
    return the url with httpservice (as a string offcourse) and set as 
imagepath to your image control.  


All the best !

  Is it possible to return an image object using HTTPService?



The fault method executes when I attempt to do this:



var http:HTTPService = new HTTPService();

http.url = "myScript.ashx";

http.method = "POST";

http.resultFormat = "object";



Should URLLoader be used instead?



Cheers,
