I know actionscript does not allowed private contstructor at any time and But if i want to write a sinlgleton class in action script So how to implement it in actionscript.
Can anyone provide an sample example of a singleton pattern in actionscript?
I have a doubt,.... How would you create a Singleton class in Flex...
Is there any convention like the class name should eb Singleton or it should extend any other class.
How many Singleton class can a project have?
Can anyone say the real time usage of a Singleton class?
I am planning to keep my components label texts in a Singleton class... Is it a good approach.
I know singleton class is not supporting in Flex.Because it does not access private constructor. But i want to make a class is singleton class.

I have a ManagerClass with a Singleton implementation inside, I get the instance by calling ManagerClass.getInstance().
Can I get that same instance by just having the class name as a string? I have tried something like:
var theInstance:* = getDefinitionByName("ManagerClass").getInstance as Class;
theInstance.doTrace(); // I get a 1009 error here
we have following class

If you run these, you'll notice that the MXML-component can't hear the event. The question is simple, is there some way of getting the Event-metadata tag to work WITHOUT extending EventDispatcher? I would like to keep this class independent and use object composition as much as possible. And no, I don't want to use ActionScript addEventListener in the MXML-file. It doesn't tell the developer anything like good old Event metadata tag, and besides, that is not the point of this example. :)
I have a Main class loading 2 SWF (loader and viewer, also with document classes). They need to share a double buffer with content, of course, filled by loader and showed by viewer I was thinking to use the LocalConnection class but after a suggestion from PatrickS now I'm evaluating the possibility of a Singleton Class. I've never used this pattern in AS and must confess I'm rather biased against it.
But in this particular case I guess it'll be useful. By the way, a little bit surprised reading in the gskinner blog 2 implementations examples. So, knowing this subject is an endless war like the Mac vs PC one Take into account:
1. AIR desktop application running 24x7 during some months in a high-end Windows PC. No user interaction
2. High performance code is a must because content loaded are full HD images My other concern is about memory leaks
In the Singleton design pattern you can throw a runtime error if the instance has already been created. But this doesn't work when your singleton class extends another class and has to call super() in its constructor, because (for some reason) you cannot call super() if you've already called throw(), or in fact, you cannot compile code that has a potential call to throw() (for example, in an IF statement) that comes BEFORE that call to super().
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to load swf from 127.0.0.1 into my main.swf with Flash Pro
Both swfs have Singlenton class
How to make it that loaded swf use Singlenton of main.swf ?
I did
ActionScript Code:
var lc:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
lc.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
myLoader.load( new URLRequest("http/127.0.0.1/loaded.swf"),lc);
anyway I have 2 different Singlenton classes one comes with loaded.swf another in main.swf and variables not shared
is any way I can merge this values?

How can I access a timeline variable from a static class / singleton?
View 14 RepliesI have created a Singleton class that handles my project texts. What is the appropriate name of a Singleton class like this?
[Code]...
I am not able to understand, why a static class cannot replace a Singleton design pattern .
Cannot a static class, can be used to ensure, the class is never/once only, instantiated. Because that is the facility "static" key words provide , however it doesnot allow instantiation, but that is much similar to the limitation of instantiation once only.

View 1 RepliesI can't quite wrap my head around the differences. In what situations would I choose one over another?Specifically, I'm creating a sort of View component (in a very hack-y sort of way, I'm sure) that can redraw the interface with the same visual components (some of which change slightly depending on the mode) in 3 different modes: Normal, Small, or Fullscreen. The trick here is that both the Normal and Small modes can *also* go fullscreen as well, though you'll never be able to switch between Normal and Small in the same session (it's determined up-front).

I'm trying to work out how to use states in my Flex app.I've created two states, State1 and Stage 2. Both are based off the base state. I've created a few visual elements for State1, and given each of them includeIn="State1".But when I'm in design mode and click on State2, these elements are still visible?If I try to delete them while State2 is selected, all that happens is RemoveChild is added to the State2 tag.
View 1 RepliesIm wondering how to implement undo redo functionality with a TextArea. I already have an undoredo framework functionality working, now I have two questions.When do I start/stop a new undo/redo command, eg when a user hits undo, how far back do I go. How do I implement this(1.) in a normal TextAreay thinking:I thinking that I should create a new undo command, when anything but a alphanumber+space is hit. To do this I would use the keyDown event and test if the key is alpha num if it is not I will reset the command.
View 3 RepliesI'm looking for suggestions regarding implementing process flow / work flow management in a PureMVC based application. Our Flex application includes a number of processes such as account creation, payment processing, etc. Within our team, there is some discussion of how rigidly we should adhere to the PureMVC model. Within the PureMVC model, it seems reasonable that the current state in the process could be managed in a Proxy. Commands are clearly responsible for processing the actions required of each node and for node transitions. Mediators for managing the UI.
However, I think that there is an important bit still missing here: a ProcessController. The approaches we've reviewed all seem to either violate the PureMVC model (even just slightly) or make unreadable code. A proxy would maintain the state of the process. As such, it seems to be an appropriate way to implement the controller. However, this is putting a lot of business logic into the proxy.

Are there any differences implementing Flex application security in a clustered Java environment (such as Oracle Application Server/OC4J or a JBoss cluster) vs a single application server environment? (And/or does it depend on the specific environment software?)
What considerations are there in a situation where you need to authenticate with LDAP (AD) and store user access information in a database (ex. USER table containing username + permissions/roles info)? Any differences between Blaze DS and Granite DS?
I would like to implement the MVC pattern to an existing Flex project.I want to separate out the controllers and models from the views. They currently all live together in large mxml files.My question is, should httpservice requests be in the model or the controller? What sort of advantages/disadvantages would there be to either?
View 3 RepliesI have an application that is coded using Flex 3 on UI side and java @ the service layer, along with BlazeDS. Now we need to authorize the users accessing the system based on the roles that are defined for them in the database, e.g. : say a user with role guest should not be able to access Admin tab on ui and also should not be able to do any operations other than viewing the data displayed on dashboard. Also the point to note here is that roles can be created dynamically by Super users from UI. I came across this link which describes how to perform Role Based Authentication & Authorization. With this approach I need to define the roles in service-config.xml but since my roles are not pre-defined I cannot go with this.
View 1 RepliesI am attempting to implement a layout in Adobe Flex 4.5 / MXML where I have multiple controls in an HBox that - in total - consume all available horizontal screen estate. Some use a relative with (percentage), some an absolute width (pixels) and one is supposed to consume whatever space is still left, such as:
+----------------------+-----------------------+------+
| 35% | fill parent | 10px |
+----------------------+-----------------------+------+
How would I achieve this in Flex (is there something comparable to Android's
layout_width="fillparent")?
Due to the fact that there are elements that have an absolute width I cannot easily calculate the width of the filler as a percentage a priori (as it varies with the screen width). Setting the filler's width to 100% also does not work as this will shrink the 35% area below 35%. Applying the updateDisplayList suggestion from www.Flextras.com's answer below yields the error "Call to a possibly undefined method updateDisplayList" at the line marked in the source excerpt below:

View 12 RepliesI want to implement an application in Flex/Rails in Background as I know these two languages but I'm fairly beginner with Flex and Intermediate-to-expert with Rails. My application will display a calendar like object by which there are say 5-day week or 7-day week or a month (30-days) and in each day there will be some data such as appointments or such. I want users to be able to drag left or right to get more days after or before the displayed week for example and I want the boxes to be filled with proper appointments data.
What is the best way to implmenet this in your opinion, mainly from Flex point of view? Any architectural tips from the Rails side?

I can't understand why should I even use the Singleton pattern in ActionScript 3. Can anyone explain me this? Maybe I just don't understand the purpose of it. I mean how it differs from other patterns? How it works? I checked the PureMVC source and it's full of Singletons. Why are they using them in the View, Module, Controller?
