Unfortunately not but this is also interesting for me.
I've discussed this topic with Leonidas from Greece at ApacheCon.
He is an experienced Flex guy and if I remember it correctly he said that he
is already using Android Smart TVs with AIR.

I don't know if he's following the list currently... if not you maybe could
get in touch with him off list[1].

If Amazon S3 supports setting "X-HTTP-Method-Override" you maybe can
directly consume its REST API by using HTTPService even without a lib but
it's probably a bit cumbersome.
(Due to a bug in Flash, a HTTPService/URLRequest with a GET request will not
properly send headers.The X-HTTP-Method-Override header tells the API how to
treat it)

Another maybe venturesome option could be to capture the 'S3 nodejs SDK' by
targeting nodejs using the FlexJS compiler. But I don't know if this would
work. If you take a look at the TypeScript world you'll find some ideas how
they do it with TypeScript. There already exist some type definitions for
TypeScript.

FlexJS 0.8.0 will be published soon and I think it's definitely worth to try
it out!
It comes with a rich Material Design component set (MDL) and a lot of other
new or revised stuff.
So give it a try! At least it depends on your app requirements if it fits
your needs. If it's not all in place keep in mind that it's open source so
you have the chance to contribute missing things at any time ;-))

Hope this helps,
Olaf

Re: Type Declaration of style 'strokeColor' conflicts with previous declaration in ... Unknown Flex Problem

[OK]

After your and another hint off list, I double checked all my external libs
and it turns out that one external lib makes usage of mx:HRule which causes
the issue.

It would be very helpful if the compiler would be able to output also this
previous rival declaration ;-))

Type Declaration of style 'strokeColor' conflicts with previous declaration in ... Unknown Flex Problem

[OK]

Hi,

I get the following error when I'm trying to use a component from an
external lib:
"Type Declaration of style 'strokeColor' conflicts with previous declaration
in ... Unknown Flex Problem"

I understand that this error occurs cause of a style conflict with the
included swc lib.
The error message also contains a hint to the component of the lib that
caused this issue, that's ok.

But I'm totally lost cause I've created a test project/app that includes the
same libs/swc as my origin app and the error goes away.
The test project/app makes usage of the same external component that causes
the error in my origin app. 

So I assume there is something in my app that causes this issue.
To find out what it is I tried to remove several lines of code step by step
from my origin app, without success... that error is still there.
Is there any chance to find out which part of my app caused this conflict?

I appreciate any help!

Thanks,
Olaf

Re: FlexJS: Getting Uncaught type error

Hi,
this is a bit strange:
I can reproduce this error by compiling with FlashBuilder [1].
By using VSCode it works.

Cause this makes no sense to me I double checked that both really used the
same SDK...

To make sure that there no side effects within my app code I reduced it to a
test case with a Main.mxml file and an initial view that contains just a
js:Label.

Probably I'm doing something wrong... but maybe this is still more helpful
than confusing.

Re: FalconJX - How To Use...

[OK]

Hi,
probably all the smart FlexJS guys are busy or more focused on the dev list
so I'll try to answer:

>Does FalconJX do this?
This is a quote coming from the latest FlexJS release announcement [1] and
explains what FalconJX is:
"Apache Flex FalconJX is a next-generation MXML and ActionScript 
cross-compiler.  It extends the next-generation SWF compiler known as 
Falcon.  Both are contained in the release package and are used by the 
FlexJS package to compile SWFs or cross-compile to HTML/JS/CSS." 

So we have to speak about FlexJS.

>Interested in cross compiling existing Flex source to HTML/CSS/JS.
As I got in touch with FlexJS the first time I also thought I could just
cross-compile existing Flex code (mx/spark) to HTML/CSS/JS. But that's not
the truth. Instead, you have to migrate your code to FlexJS.
That means that you have to remove all flex/flash dependencies from your AS3
code and you have to replace your mx/spark components by FlexJS components.
Depending on your code base that could be more or less work.

So, what remains?
FlexJS places you in the position to develop your apps in a similar way like
Flex by using typed AS3 and 
MXML and that's great! I perceive that FlexJS is making great progress
thanks to the guys who contribute to the project.

I'd like to encourage you to just download and install it and check it out
[2].
Make sure to also check out the impressive MDL (Material design examples)
[3].

HTH,
Olaf

Sounds like the right path ;-)

My recommendation regarding a MVC framework is still PureMVC [1] cause:
- There's an awesome documentation available, including a book written by
Cliff Hall [2]
- There a lot of examples out there [3]
- There're some useful utilities available
- It suports modular programming
- It comes with a simple but powerful notification system
- It's feature frozen
- It's still alive and supported the community and by its author Cliff Hall
[4]
- It was ported to a lot of other programming languages
- It's pure PureMVC contains of just a few classes and interfaces
- You could use if with FlexJS out of the box

Sounds like it's time to separate your model from your view ;-)
As Benjamin said it's a good idea to persist your data by using some AS3
classes that represents your model.
Probably there're countless aproaches how to achive this.
By implementing this and other typically stuff to separate the concerns by
yourself you maybe end up with the decision to use one of the frameworks out
there which already solved a lot of things for you (e.g. PureMVC, Parsley,
Swiz, ...).

However, one simple approach to just resolve your current issue could be to
inject a model object [1][2] to your view.
You have to implement a public variable e.g. var myModelVO:MyModelVO at your
view to achive this.

HTH,
Olaf


MyModelVO.as:

[Bindable]
public class MyModelVO
{
public var searchItem:String;
// ...
}

MyView:

maybe I get you wrong but I would just like to let you know that I can't
reproduce this issue with 4.15.0:

Steps to reproduce:
- Create a  using MXML and load some data into it
- Select one row by just clicking it using the left mouse key
- Use keyboard navigation (Up and down) to switch between the rows

This just works like a charm.

HTH,
Olaf

Hi Chris,
thanks for your effort on this, I really appreciate it!
I'm interested to attend but for some reasons I can't estimate if I've some

Moreover it's a long trip from germany, if such an event would be in Europe
things would be easier ;-)

To get an idea of what the guys are working on and what is needed you could
follow the dev list [1][2].
It's probably hard to follow but it could be an entry point.
Then you could browse through the JIRA bug tracker [3] to get an idea of
open issues.

Are you already familar with the Flex or FlexJS framework?

Re: Scout - What does this mean?

[OK]

Regarding performance:
To improve performance you want to avoid any kind of percentage
calclulations and deep nesting of components. You also could think of
removing embracing groups to reduce the number of components. The less the
better.
At least you could replace relative positioning by absolute positioning.
Going this way you have to set a fixed with for the itemRenderer and just
place the Labels by using its x and y property.

Of course it depends on your use case which option is really an option...
but at least performance is the most important thing ;-)

Donating Spark-Material to Apache Flex (was "Spark components with Material Design")

[OK]

Hi, 
I just would like to revive the idea of donating Rui Cruz spark material lib
[1] to Apache Flex.
This is the origin thread [2].

Maybe we could achive this within the 4.16.0 release, that would be great.
I've already contact Rui and he said that he's fine with it.

I think we have to clean up the repo [1] a bit but If I unserstand it right
we just have to add the Apache licence header to each file and could push it
to the Flex repo, is that right?

Are there any concerns?

You are probably right, it is so hard to read the code on the list and I have

Re: Application starts but then shows black screen

[OK]

Hi,
I've not taken a deep look at you code but it seems to me that this is a
async issue:

If your inhouse network is fast enough maybe your http calls will handled in
a synchronous fashion without any problems, but that's just accidentally.
Keep in mind that http calls are asynchronous.
If your first http request is not completely handled and you create the next
one by just replacing the first URLRequest instance by a new URLRequest
instance, the first one will probably fail.

So maybe you have to take care to process your http requests one by one
(Start the next call not before the previous is completely handled) or you
could create several instances of URLRequest and handle each result by its
particular URLRequest instance.

I hope I could explain what I wanted to say...

If I understand you right the "tab viewstack" is nested so maybe it is not
instanciated at creationComplete of your top level component cause of the
deferred instantiation concept of Flex. If that's the case you could set
creationPolicy="true" which is not the best solution. Instead of this you
may want to handle the creationComplete event of the "tab viewstack" to hide
particular tabs.

If I get you wrong providing some code might help.

Re: Release Build Performance on Mobile

[OK]

Hi,
this is not an answer to your question but maybe it is still helpful:

No matter if you're using a mobile device or desktop, having too many
columns might be a bad user expericence and not very ergonomic for the
users.
E.g. if you have over 50 columns and hundreds or thousands of rows I don't
think that anybody is able to get the needed information in a adaquate time.
Paging, vertical and horizontal scrolling could be very painful even if the
performance is bad.
Instead of polluting the screen with to much information it might be a good
idea to extract just the important things. You could give the users the
posibility to e.g. filter the data by custom filters or you could provide
different views of the data depending of its context.

Technically I often tend to replace the datagrid by a list with a proper
(material design inspired) item renderer.
It seems to me that the list is much more performant than the datagrid even
by using item renderers.
In the back I'm using ElasticSearch that places you in the position to
filter, sort, aggregate, analyze,... your data in near realtime so there's
no need to implement this by yourself on client side. 

So, if you've the chance to influence your UI decisions, give it a try and
refactor it ;-)

HTH,
Olaf

AFAIK there're no plans to implement something like that.

>If not planned, what would be a workaround?

I wonder what do you expect from a flatspark datagrid?
To adjust the look and feel to a flat design you maybe could create some
custom skins.



BTW:
Do you know the Spark-Material lib [1] which is inspired by googles Material
Design?
There's also no datagrid available but you should give it a try!

RE: FlexJS application and swf mudoles

[OK]

>Any ideas are welcomed and appreciated.

I'm using PureMVC [1] AS3 multicore [2] to separate my apps into
independents modules or cores.
The PureMVC cores communicates using interfaces [3] or the PureMVC pipes
utility [4].
With this approach you're able to implement encapsulated and reusable
modules that holds your business logic which doesn't need to know anything
about its views. You could create and remove PureMVC cores at runtime. If
you take care of implementing your PureMVC cores using pure AS3 you could
just reuse it with FlexJS.

One word to PureMVC:
PureMVC consist only of a couple of files, it doesn't generates a dependency
like other big frameworks does.
It's matured, unchanged over years (which is a big benefit!) and still
supported by its owner Cliff Hall.
There're exist ports to lots of other popular languages so that you even
have a fair chance to port your buisness logic to any other language.

[FlexJS] Issue with DropDownList if it's child of org.apache.flex.core.View

Hi,
if I use org.apache.flex.core.View as root class of an outsourced sub
component that contains a DropDownList I notice that the DropDownList
doesn't show its populated items after clicking on it.
After some investigation I found that replacing the
org.apache.flex.core.View by org.apache.flex.html.Container solves this
issue.

Is it the wrong way to use org.apache.flex.core.View as root class or is
this maybe a bug?
The AS3 doc [1] sounds like using it at root class might be the right way...

Thanks,

[1] org.apache.flex.core.View docs:
 *  The View class is the class for most views in a FlexJS

Re: Problem using latest SDK in Flashbuilder

To my knowlegde is's definately crucial to manually add the SDK to your IDE
as it is described in the above link.
But if it already appears in your project as default project it seems to be
ok. Maybe you want to double check it: Right click at your
project->Properties->Flex compiler:
The 'default' or 'specifik' SDK should point to 4.15.0.

Sometimes FlashBuilder is a bit messy and sometimes it is helpful to 'clean'
a project:
Try "Project->Clean..." from the toolbar.

If we'd go this way, does it mean that at the end users would have to add
beans to make sure that the SWF version works and also have to add the
properties to the TextInput component to make sure that the JS version
works?

> What APIs are you referring to?

My understanding is that FlexJS converts "org.apache.flex.html5.TextInput"
to "".
The html5 "" element provides an "required" and "pattern" attribute
[1][2].
So the question is if it makes sense (and if it would be possible) to make
all these html5 "build in" attributes available as properties in
"org.apache.flex.html5.TextInput".

This modified "onRollout" code will work but maybe there is some more
elegant way.
It uses the relatedObject property [1].
Btw: 
Instead of the Panel maybe the Callout component [2] better suits your
needs?.

Re: BarChart Y Axis Label Issue

[OK]

Mabye you could use the 'labelRenderer' setter of your AxisRenderer to pass a
renderer that fits your needs. You have to implement the renderer by
yourself. It works similiar to a 'itemRenderer'

Here you could find some details [1]

HTH,
Olaf

http://flexcoders.10928.n7.nabble.com/Ely-How-do-you-wordwrap-a-label-on-a-bar-chart-td8090.html

[2] Extract from [1]:
A more involved method would be to use a labelRenderer (similar to the
following), for the AxisRenderer.  For word-wrap, you would change the
_label variable type from Label to UITextField or TextArea; and set the
desired styles and properties.  Caveat: I've found that if the entire
view is using a show effect (like yours), the app locks-up (probably
asking the player to do too much).  Also, if you use a showDataEffect on
a series of a chart, the effect doesn't play if you use a labelRenderer.

Re: Callout Component for AIR on Desktop

[OK]

I've completely replaced conventional popups by callouts and as Om said it
works!
Cause there're not so much demos available I've just created one:

https://github.com/ok-at-github/Apache-Flex-Callout-demo

>I have information that I want to show a user that slides in
> from the bottom or the side when a user clicks a button

I think there's a difference between a component that slides-in and a
callout.
The callout embraces a component and points to it's owner, e.g. a button.

The sliding component could be just a component that applies some effects
that could be triggered
by e.g. any button.
It could be slide-in on the top layer of your UI or it could be included so
that the other components will 
resize. (Last one could be a bit choppy if you're UI is deeply nested).

HTH,
Olaf

Re: Connect AIR to a Remote Server

[OK]

I don't want to totally confuse you but there's another option:
You could go with a on-premise backend as a service (baas) solution.

One baas candidate is dreamfactory:
http://www.dreamfactory.com/

It could be installed using bitnami in nearly 5 minutes.
https://bitnami.com/stack/dreamfactory

Dreamfactory provides ready to use APIs for MySQL and MongoDB and a lot of
other stuff,
including a file upload API.
Going with this kind of solution you don't need any database knowledge.
Just call the provided services and you're done!

If you'd like to go with a REST server I could try to assist you.
If all works fine you be able to set up the complete environment in a few
minutes.
I'd recommed to install the complete setup at you local machine first.

1) Install the MEAN or LAMP stack using e.g. bitnami
https://bitnami.com/stack/lamp (MySQL)
OR
https://bitnami.com/stack/mean (MongoDB)

2) Install php composer
https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#installation-linux-unix-osx

3) Install Slim using composer
http://www.slimframework.com/docs/start/installation.html

Now you could start coding your RESTful services that coud be easiliy
consumed by your flex app.
Let me know if you would give it a try...

If you'd like to stick with ZEND_AMF wich is also fine you should check if
your Zend_Server is working 
(Independent from Flex):
1) Check if your web server is up running and your PHP is working fine.
To verify it just create a simple phpinfo.php file and put it to your web
root:
File phpinfo.php:

Call this file in your web browser. You should see the phpinfo page.

2) Locate your Zend_Server gateway.php file (Most time the entry file is
called gateway.php or sometimes index.php)
Just call this gateway.php file in your browser and check if there occur any
errors.
If I remember it correctly it returns something like "Endpoint" if it works
correctly.

HTH,
Olaf

Re: Connect AIR to a Remote Server

[OK]

I assume you mean Zend_Amf_Server if you're speaking of Zend?
This might be helpul:
https://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.amf.server.html

I had used Zend_Amf_Server for a long time in the past and remember that
there could be some pitfalls.
E.g. you have to take care of the VO mapping, the class registration and of
course the services-config itself.
I've never used the FlashBuilder code generation/data-centric tools but to
avoid issues with it I recommed to implement the services by yourself.
As Jeffrey said it would be helpful if you provide some more details.

However, if it's an option for you to replace AMF by JSON (or XML) it makes
much sense to replace the Zend_Amf_Server by a REST server.
Building a REST server with PHP is easy using the awesome Slim framework:
http://www.slimframework.com/

Using this option you'll get a reusable API that could be consumed by any
http client.
If you combine SLIM with JSON Web Token (JWT) you be able to build real
stateless services (no state on the server side):
https://github.com/tuupola/slim-jwt-auth

I'd like to publish a tutorial using SLIM/JWT with Flex, but unfortunately
time is always not enough...we'll see...

HTH,
Olaf

Maybe the data is received successfully from your service but the
dataProvider of the ComboBox is not populated at the time you try to set the
selectedIndex.
You could try to populate the dataProvider 'manually' after receiving the
data from your service and set the selectedIndex afterwards. 

protected function myResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
{
colorsCB.dataprovider = event.my.data.object;
colorsCB.selectedIndex = colors.lookupNdxByID(defaultColor);
