I recently came across the best Flex/LCDS/Java/Maven2 guide that I have ever seen before (http://www.flexlcds.com). I have been looking for something like this for a very long time. If you are interested in how all the concepts come together (frontend, middleware, backend, build/deploy), please check it out. I know that it will help you as much as it has helped me!

[SPAM] Re: Get strong propertyName from object so it would break at compile time if changed

2009-11-08T10:40:49Z

Thank you, but the property should exist, so putting it inside string literals is not the intent. I am more concerned about someone refactoring code and renaming "weight" to "grossWeight" and having my application break at compile time vs runtime. So other then this are there any other suggestions.

dataColumn.dataField = "weight"; personObj.weight; // hack to catch rename in future and hopefully be able to find usages where I'd be more likely to find the string literal.

RE: Re: How can I put a PopUPMenuButton in an AdvancedDatagridColumn?

2009-11-08T08:52:11Z

Hi All,
When i do the below code what I see is the parent servicename as one row in the tree and as a child again the parent service and its data as another row and some where down the tree the child as another row with only service name in the first row and as a child the servicename and its other coulumns, i would like to get the Parent service as a row with its other column DATA AS A ROW and then the child immediately under that when I open the parent with all its data as a row in a tree structrure, how can i ge thtis type of grouping from   the below array dpSrv. Please forget about the array dp.
If you copy the mxml code and the Action Script below in my last reply it will compile for you.
thanks,
Tom.

Instead of {"Index":xd[0] , …}

do: {Index:xd[0] , …}; //leave off the quotes

Other than that, what line is the compile error?

Also that is not an “Array”, it is an “Object” or “hashtable”, or “associative array”

Hi,

I am new to flex and learning on the job and also under time pressure to finish the work, now i have set up the Flex Builder Environement running my applicatiion , i am having some problem so i was using the Cmd line to do my work.

I have another quesion Please help me out.

Now the same Array i have added a parentid, which has values as "0" and non-zero.
Parent id = 0 means it is the parent, parent id != 0 means that the parent of the service is that id.

I am setting parent id equal to the service id when parent id = 0, so the children and parent can be grouped together.
Also i need to print the tree with the parent row has values and the children under that parent as rows with values. How can I do this.
now the Array looks like below and I have added the column to the grid.
Thanks for the help.
iam doing a check to set the Pservice
in the array dp
This will not compile just to how what I am doing.
var xp:String= (Xs[i].parentid as String);


             if(xp == "0")
             {
            xp = xd[1];

              PService=xp;
            }
dp.addItem( { "Index":xd[0] , "Service":xd[ 1], "Priority":xd[ 2], "Current SLA":xd[3]," Health":xd[ 4], "Quality":xd[ 5],
                          "Risk":xd[6] , "Avail":xd[7] , "OpMode":xd[ 8], "dd":ddArr," PService" :PService} );

Why? To get the advanced datagrid stuff you need to purchase Flex Builder Pro - why not use it?

RE: [SPAM] Re: Get strong propertyName from object so it would break at compile time if changed

2009-11-08T08:24:04Z

Yes, unless "Person" extends mx:Object, or is explicitly declared as
dynamic, a hard reference to a property name will give a compile error if
that property does not exist.

You can look for Person.hasOwnProperty('weight') to see if the property
exists at runtime. If you want a compile-time warning, just put in a hard
reference somewhere to aPerson.weight.

RE: Re: How can I put a PopUPMenuButton in an AdvancedDatagridColumn?

2009-11-08T08:21:10Z

Instead of {"Index":xd[0], }

do: {Index:xd[0], }; //leave off the quotes

Other than that, what line is the compile error?

Also that is not an Array, it is an Object or hashtable, or
associative array

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Re: How can I put a PopUPMenuButton in an

Hi,

I am new to flex and learning on the job and also under time pressure to
finish the work, now i have set up the Flex Builder Environement running my
applicatiion , i am having some problem so i was using the Cmd line to do
my work.

I have another quesion Please help me out.

Now the same Array i have added a parentid, which has values as "0" and
non-zero.

Parent id = 0 means it is the parent, parent id != 0 means that the parent
of the service is that id.

I am setting parent id equal to the service id when parent id = 0, so the
children and parent can be grouped together.

Also i need to print the tree with the parent row has values and the
children under that parent as rows with values. How can I do this.

now the Array looks like below and I have added the column to the grid.

Thanks for the help.

iam doing a check to set the Pservice

in the array dp

This will not compile just to how what I am doing.

var xp:String= (Xs[i].parentid as String);

if(xp == "0")
{
xp = xd[1];

PService=xp;
}

dp.addItem( { "Index":xd[0], "Service":xd[1], "Priority":xd[2], "Current
SLA":xd[3],"Health":xd[4], "Quality":xd[5],
"Risk":xd[6], "Avail":xd[7], "OpMode":xd[8],
"dd":ddArr,"PService":PService} );

Why? To get the advanced datagrid stuff you need to purchase Flex Builder
Pro - why not use it?

RE: [SPAM] Re: Re: text from a form into an e-mail?

2009-11-08T08:14:20Z

At the instance or global level of an mxml file, you can only initiate
variables to simple values. "richTextInstance" does not yet exist when you
are trying to access the text property value, thus the error. Declare the
variable as you are, but wait to initialize the value by using a
ceeationComplete handler.

Now, mx:Form is just a layout container, and won't process the field data
for you in any special way. You will need to get the value from each form
item control individually, and build the string you want. (or, if the form
changes update a model, use the model.)

Now I have the problem of generating the string from the form - I would
think this variable would work to do that:

private var text2:String = richTextInstance.text

If this variable is even written but not used, the app doesn't even display
- gives this:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object
reference.

And then I don't understand how to combine the above two variables to insert
into new URLRequest().

Thanks for your help.

Hi Tracy

I must be misunderstanding what you're saying. I tried this:

private var mailMe:String = "mailto:kearney@
<mailto:kearney@...?body=bodyText> ...?body=bodyText";

private function sendEmail():void

{

navigateToURL(new URLRequest('mailMe'),'_self')

}

and on clicking the Submit button which calls sendEmail, the browser

tells me it can't find the file "FormTest2/bin-debug/mailMe".

Ok, next, put that string into a variable and use the var in the url

string. When that works, all you need to do is generate the string

from the form, and put it in the var.

Thanks for your response. I re-wrote the code so at least I can send

body text without the form data.

private function sendEmail():void

{

navigateToURL(new URLRequest('mailto:kearney@
<mailto:kearney@...?body=some%20body%20text%20goes%20in%20here'),'_self')>
...?body=some%20body%20text%20goes%20in%20here'),'_self')

}

Now the problem is how to specify the contents of the FormItems in

the 'mailto'.

I have done this a lot, but do not have my code in front of me right

Do it one step at a time.

Hi

I'm trying to move text filled into a form in an app being built

with

Flash Builder beta2 into the body of an e-mail. I'm trying to do

this

via the default program on the user's computer because it seems

potentially simplest. If there's a better basic strategy or a big

problem my aforementioned strategy, please clue me in.

What I've tried that hasn't worked is calling this function on

clicking the Submit button:

private function sendEmail():void

{

var u:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:recepient@
<mailto:recepient@?body=> ?body=

"+

nameFormItem);

navigateToURL(u, "self");

}

I suspect there's at least a problem with the code after the email

address....

Better for the FormItem text to be put into Model first? Need to use

an HTTP Service?

Thanks for your attention.

2009-11-08T08:01:46Z

I am running normally at 15, and going up to 24 actually looks worse at
times, with multiple interim images visible at once, instead of just a
stutter. I will continue to experiment, maybe going up to something crazy
like 70.

Ironic, huh? Actually, we are not finding the AIR app to be unreasonably
resource hungry.

Yes, I am using the papervision cube to navigate between forms, and the
animation is not always smooth(sometimes it is). However, the os memory
monitor indicates that the air app is not taking the resources it has
available at that moment.

I will try your suggestion of running something in an enterFrame handler.

We just got an important demo wrapped up and I will have some time to work
on this.

Thanks,
Tracy

Re: Water Marker Issue(urgent)

Did the app originate from FB2? I had that issue and it's because FB2 had a separate licence for charting.

If you have FB3 Pro you can get the 2nd license for free through Adobe

How can I use Grouping collection to group data on the parent ?

2009-11-08T04:46:39Z

HI All,
I am new to flex and learning on the job and also under time pressure to finish the work,,

I hava an Array in which a parentid is added, which has values as "0" and non-zero values.
Parent id = 0 means it is the parent, parent id != 0 means that the parent of the service is that id.

I am setting parent id equal to the service id when parent id = 0, so the children and parent can be grouped together.
How can i group the data on parent id an show the data in a tree structure with the parent row which has values and the children under that parent , to show as children with values in the row.
Now the Array looks like below and I have added the column for Parent to the grid. Is it required that the parent column in the ADG with dataField ="PService" should be visible?
Thanks for the help.
I am doing a check to set the PService
in the array dp as below.
This will not compile just to show what I am doing where xp has the parent id from the Array.
var xp:String= (Xs[i].parentid as String);


             if(xp == "0")
             {
            xp = xd[0];

              PService=xp;
            }

dp.addItem( { "Index":xd[0] , "Service":xd[ 1], "Priority":xd[ 2], "Current SLA":xd[3]," Health":xd[ 4], "Quality":xd[ 5],
                          "Risk":xd[6] , "Avail":xd[7] , "OpMode":xd[ 8], "dd":ddArr," PService" :PService} );

FocusManager/Tab button

2009-11-08T02:15:12Z

Is it possible to skip an object being focused when tabbing through several objects

I have a three buttons and a list, I don't want the second button to have a focus, yes I have tried focusEnabled=false, but on the second button, I have the focusOut= set to focus a list, after focusing the list, I press tab and it reselects the second button, which is something I do not want.

Is there a way to add something to the <mx:list> like focusManager.skipFocus(secondButton) or anything like that?

Weirdest error ever!

2009-11-08T01:14:37Z

Hi All.... I am currently getting the weirdest error. It comes and
goes quite randomly..... For instance, it have showed up from me
adding a comment to the code or disappeared from deleting blank lines
in the source.

I have tried it in both FB3 and FB4b2, but to no avail.....

Could someone please shed some light on this?

Thank you in advance....

Get strong propertyName from object so it would break at compile time if changed

2009-11-07T14:21:53Z

Is there a way to get a strong property name from an object?

scenario ... Person class having "weight" property

var column:DataGridColumn
column.dataField = "weight";

can i do something like:

column.dataField = Person.weight.getPropertyName();

... so that if this "weight" property is renamed one day I would get compile time warning?

Pesky security error 2048

2009-11-07T12:54:39Z

I'm at my wits end...

I have a Flex client using a Socket (not an XMLSocket) to talk to a Java server. All of this with Java 1.5, Firefox 3.5.4, Flash 10.0.32.18 and FlexBuilder 3.

The Java end listens on two ports, 843, through which it serves only the policy file, and 45455, which is a port of my choosing for the rest of my communication.

On the Java end I process the <policy-file-request/> and return the following policy file...

<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"><cross-domain-policy><site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/><allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="45455,843" secure="false"/></cross-domain-policy>

I can do this from either port 843 or 45455, I respond the same way in both cases.

I have tried *many* variations in my Flex code, but whatever I do I get a sandbox error 2048 after about 12 seconds, although my very first socket flush goes through OK.

Here are some variations I have tried with the same result:
- manually calling Security.loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://myip:843")
- manually calling Security.loadPolicyFile("myip:843")
- manually calling Security.loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://myip:45455")
- manually calling Security.loadPolicyFile("myip:45455")
- standing up an apache server and adding crossdomain.xml at the root
- manually calling Security.loadPolicyFile("http://myip/crossdomain.xml")
- not calling Security.loadPolicyFile() at all, just making the socket request. In this case the player connects on 843, the server responds with the policy file, the player debug log says it accepts the policy file and then immediately throws a #2048 and disconnects the socket.
- permissive policy, i.e. * for everything

I get slightly different timing behaviour if I connect from another machine on my local network, but the net result is the same, I cannot persist a socket beyond one, or maybe two requests.

I have read the Adobe security posts about a hundred times, written a bunch of harnesses to make sure I am serving the right thing up, added null charaters on the end, and removed them, forced it to fail with different errors by serving a syntactically incorrect policy file, trie different ports, downloaded 19 other people's code samples and tried them, and all the stuff you would do before you admit defeat.

If I didn't know better I'd say there's a bug... could there be a bug?

I can post more code, but to be honest I'm doing nothing complicated on the client end, I simply create a Socket, bind it to the IP and port, send a String down it with writeUTFBytes() and flush(). Even the simplest possible client with just those 5 lines of code in it fails.

What obvious thing have I missed?

Mac-like icon brower library

2009-11-07T09:46:13Z

Hello,

Some time ago, I stumbled across a library that defined a container that had
behavior similar to the bottom taskbar on Macintoshesµ. You know, when all
the icons are aligned, and when you mouse over one of them it gets
magnified, and the other icons are repositioned. I lost the bookmark when I
had to reformat my computer, and cannot managed to find it again.

Would anyone know about this?

Re: Re: How can I put a PopUPMenuButton in an AdvancedDatagridColumn?

2009-11-07T06:49:25Z

Hi,
I am new to flex and learning on the job and also under time pressure to finish the work, now i have set up the Flex Builder Environement running my applicatiion , i am having some problem so i was using the Cmd line to do my work.

I have another quesion Please help me out.

Now the same Array i have added a parentid, which has values as "0" and non-zero.
Parent id = 0 means it is the parent, parent id != 0 means that the parent of the service is that id.

I am setting parent id equal to the service id when parent id = 0, so the children and parent can be grouped together.
Also i need to print the tree with the parent row has values and the children under that parent as rows with values. How can I do this.
now the Array looks like below and I have added the column to the grid.
Thanks for the help.
iam doing a check to set the Pservice
in the array dp
This will not compile just to how what I am doing.
var xp:String= (Xs[i].parentid as String);


             if(xp == "0")
             {
            xp = xd[1];

              PService=xp;
            }

dp.addItem( { "Index":xd[0], "Service":xd[1], "Priority":xd[2], "Current SLA":xd[3],"Health":xd[4], "Quality":xd[5],
                          "Risk":xd[6], "Avail":xd[7], "OpMode":xd[8], "dd":ddArr,"PService":PService} );

Why? To get the advanced datagrid stuff you need to purchase Flex Builder Pro - why not use it?

Got it.

LineSeries(e.element).items IS an array. It is an array of LineSeriesItems which is collection with lots of things including a yValue. I can get the y values by looping through ar[i].yValue.

Browser Scrolling with a flex application

2009-11-06T17:54:39Z

I want to get rid of the Flex flash scrollbar, and replace it with the default browser scrollbar.

I am currently able to scroll the flex application with the browser, but I have to set the application Height to a fixed number.

Which is something i'd rather not do.

Because my application height changes often, I do not want large blank spaces in my application when it is not needed.

If anyone can provide a solution , if it all possible can you send the source files along with the solution?

Thanks in advance!

RE: printing a long list

Create a print view w/o scrollbars. That's essentially how PrintDataGrid does it.

Subject: [flexcoders] printing a long list

I want to use FlexPrintJob to print a long List. For example, the List contains 100 items, and only 10 fit on the screen at a time. In the GUI you can use the scrollbar to view the first 10, then the next 10, and so on.

When I add the List to the FlexPrintJob and then print it, only the items that are currently visible on the screen are printed. So depending on the scroll position I can print items 1..10, or 2..11, or 11..20, etc. What I want is to print the whole list on however many pages it will take.

There's an Adobe article:

Multiple page printing<http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=20_Printing_6.html>

but it's about printing more than one item, not about printing a long item that takes more than one page.

Does anyone know how to print a long list or table or similar data structure including all the areas not currently in view with the scrollbars? Thanks.

RE: Re: ObjectUtil.copy() and Dictionaries

2009-11-06T15:55:00Z

I'd file a bug. Not sure if they'll fix it any time soon though.

If you own the object that references the dictionaries, you should be able to code your own writeExternal/readExternal and encode the dictionaries in some way.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: ObjectUtil.copy() and Dictionaries

Thanks for the reply, Alex. Should I submit a bug report for Flash Player 10/AIR?

From what I've read Dictionary is not really meant to be serialized but you can get around it by using the RemoteClass metadata tag and by implementing IExternalizable, both of which I've done.

My understanding is the any class that implements IExternalizable should use the writeExternal and readExternal methods when the object is being serialized but that's not happening in my case.

Also, I'm not directly serializing the Dictionary, it's a property of another object. So while writing a custom copy function is not a big deal I need a way for it to be called when the parent object is serialized. Any thoughts? The app that's using these Dictionaries relies on them heavily so dumping them in favor of something else isn't really an option.

new Microphone API's in Flash CS4 / Flash 10 missing?

2009-11-06T15:14:15Z

Hey All,

Why does the Microphone class have documented api's, but yet when compiling
in flash cs4 they aren't available.

Microphone.getMicrophone().codec = SoundCodec.SPEEX; //SoundCodec isn't
found, and it complains that "codec" isn't a property. But it's clearly
reference in the documentation.

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS3LCR/Flash_10.0/flash/media/Microphone.html#codec

There are numerous new properties on the mic class, and even the latest flex
sdk doesn't have them available.

Any ideas?

Thanks

LineChart not updating when DP changes

2009-11-06T14:02:17Z

I am adding data to a LineChart with Actionscript. I have buttons in a
datagrid that add different "fields" (attributes in the XML
dataProvider, for example, jul1509="5") of data by sending a string of
what attribute of the XML should be used for the yAxis of the LineSeries
in the addToChart method, as shown below. This works fine. However,
when I go to change the dataProvider, even though I can see the method
to change the DP is indeed called, and the new data in the dataProvider
is indeed different, but the LineChart does not alter or change, even
though I also call linechart.invalidatestyles() to trigger a redraw.

Re: Re: text from a form into an e-mail?

That worked, thank you, to generate an email.

private var mailMe:String = "mailto:kearney@...";

private function sendEmail():void
{
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(mailMe),'_self');
}

Now I have the problem of generating the string from the form - I
would think this variable would work to do that:

private var text2:String = richTextInstance.text

If this variable is even written but not used, the app doesn't even
display - gives this:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null
object reference.

And then I don't understand how to combine the above two variables to
insert into new URLRequest().

Thanks for your help.

Problem handling common keyboard shortcuts

2009-11-06T11:36:13Z

Hey guys,

How can I handle shortcuts like Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X or Ctrl+V? Simple keydown listeners on the components does not seems to work.

I'll appreciate any help...
Thanx a lot...

remove the single quotes around mailMe. You want to pass the variable, not a string.

Re: Memory leak with Data Grid and Item Renderers

2009-11-06T10:58:06Z

I don't think you can do that. Item renderers are created automatically.

If it were me, I would probably removeAllChildren from the datagrid and add each column again. This should create new renderers as required.

Re:Flash and Flex free magazine download [RESOLVED]

2009-11-06T10:45:28Z

Hi John,

Was able to download it already. I hope you did as well. Yeah definitely worth it.

I suggest that their email should just give you a link (encrypted) to download the PDF right away.

Regards,

Angelo

Hi Angelo,

I found it a bit confusing too.
When I received the confirmation email I clicked that and eventually,
after clicking more downloads buttons than I expected, I reached the
actual download page but then had to re-enter my email address as if I
wasn't already subscribed.
There seems to be something wrong with their system.
It is definitely worth it though.

Hi All,

I want to make a coustom tree with nodes connected by VRULE,
can any one help.

Thanks
