[flexcoders] Re: Flex, SOAP and Process Flow
Asynctokens do work. I havent seen a single case of the handlers not being invoked being linked to some bug in flex sdk.

Here's what I've got ... var myService:Statistics = new Statistics(null,endPoint); var token:AsyncToken = myService.disableStatistics(user,pass,email,tArray); token.email = email; token.addResponder(new AsyncResponder(myResults,myFaults,token)); myResults and myFaults are never hit. If I use addEventListener against myService instead, I get the resulting data, but nothing from the token:AsyncToken. I'm not comfortable that I have the AsyncToken set up properly, since it doesnt make sense to make the call to myService before 'email' or 'addResponder' is issued, which is what I'm playing with right now.

Yes you can, try using the asyncToken generated by service.invokeWs(user) and store your user in some property (eg. currentUser) , once you get the resultEvent, that AsyncToken will have the corresponding user stored (event.token.currentUser). -- João Fernandes Adobe Certified Expert Adobe Community Expert http://www.twitter.com/joaofernandes http://www.riapt.org Portugal Adobe User Group (http://aug.riapt.org) -- João Fernandes
[flexcoders] Re: skinning and validation
I googled around a lot for this but could not find a solution anywhere. So I decided to solve it on my own by subclassing textinput control and a new style called errorskin. I have posted the link if it helps somebody, with view source enabled. http://www.metadesignsolutions.com/samples/flex/errorskin/ErrorSkin.html --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Toby Tremayne t...@... wrote: Hi Tim, On the text field if I remove the focusSkin yes, it then uses the red border as it should. But on the combo box and numeric stepper I can confirm that the validation is working fine - when I mouse over the field it still brings up the red tooltip to the right hand side, it's just not giving me the outline on the control itself. And importantly you can see from the css below that my combo box doesn't even have a focusskin specified. I've discovered that if I use the tab button to move focus onto the combobox after validation has failed, then the focus border appears and is red - but it won't appear by itself. I would have assumed that you could provide a focusskin and then the component would still draw the red border, but I can't find any references for it. Can anyone tell me how to do this? There doesn't seem to be a skin option for the error border itself. Toby On 30/07/2008, at 3:42 PM, Tim Hoff wrote: Hi Toby, For drawing the error border, flex uses the Focus Manager. If you use a focusSkin, it lloks like it over-rides the focus rectangle drawn with the errorColor. Try taking that skin out, to see if it comes back. Don't know about the comboBox. Have you verified that the validation failure is actually setting the errorString? You can try this; to find out if it's a skin or logic problem: mx:ComboBox errorString=Test/ -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Toby Tremayne toby@ wrote: Hi all, I've googled but every time I find someone with the same problem the questions seem to go unanswered... I have skins applied to a flex app and I'm having an issue where for most elements the red border doesn't show up when validation fails. For example, I have this in my css file: TextInput { borderSkin: Embed(source=TextInput.swf, symbol=TextInput_borderSkin); focusSkin: Embed(source=TextInput.swf, symbol=TextInput_focusSkin); } ComboBox { disabledSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_disabledSkin); downSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_downSkin); editableDisabledSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_editableDisabledSkin); editableDownSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_editableDownSkin); editableOverSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_editableOverSkin); editableUpSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_editableUpSkin); overSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_overSkin); upSkin: Embed(source=ComboBox.swf, symbol=ComboBox_upSkin); } And neither combobox nor textinput show the red validation border when validation fails. What am I missing? Is there a way to specify an error border skin or something? Or should there be some way in the skin file to add an error border? cheers, Toby --- Life is poetry, write it in your own words --- Toby Tremayne CEO Code Poet and Zen Master of the Heavy Sleep Lyricist Software 0416 048 090 ICQ: 13107913 --- Life is poetry, write it in your own words --- Toby Tremayne CEO Code Poet and Zen Master of the Heavy Sleep Lyricist Software 0416 048 090 ICQ: 13107913

[flexcoders] Symmetric Key Encryption in Flex Client C# WebServices

[flexcoders] Re: Symmetric Key Encryption in Flex Client C# WebServices
Thank you all for the responses, but I have already tried this one. C# does not have an official implementation for AES, so I had to ignore that one. I tried Triple DES , but it was not consistent if you try both sides, flex and C#, I guess there is a difference in implementations. I would need to do some substantial test cases, before reporting that to the author. If aybody with a real time implementation experience for this case can guide me, I would be really grateful.

[flexcoders] Individual button skin Toggle Button Bar gone on application color style change
Hi, I am working on an application which has a toggle button bar with different skins assigned to individual buttons in the css file. Eg .newBreakBtn { upSkin:Embed('/img/action/.png'); } .newCmplntBtn{ upSkin:Embed('/img/.png'); } and so on. I assign the specific style to each button at run time.Eg var btn:Button = tbtnBar.getChildAt(1) as Button; btn.styleName = newBreakBtn; This works fine. The application allows the user to change the font color and the content panel transparency , background image , background transparency and also allows the user save or undo these settings after making changes.My issue is that whenever the font color is changed along with the content panel tranparency in the following manner, together in one event handler, the skin of the buttons is removed. // font color mx.styles.StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration('Application').setStyle('color', fColor.value); // conent panel transparency mx.styles.StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration('global').setStyle('backgroundAlpha', canvasAlphaSlider.value); Changing them separately( in different event handlers) does not cause any issues. Does anybody have an idea why this is happening? Thanks, Peeyush
