Flex :: Bindings Failing When Compiled Through Flash IDE
Oct 27, 2010
I have created an API in AS3 that uses Flex bindings. The API is being used by two other developers. I am delivering the API in an SWC that includes all code, including the required Flex libraries. The two other developers are building the API into AS3-only projects. One developer is compiling using the Flex SDK through FDT. He includes the SWC in his project and he is able to bind any bindable property. When he uses ChangeWatcher.canWatch on a bindable property, it returns true.
The second developer is compiling using the Flash CS5 IDE. He includes the SWC in his project using the Actionscript settings window (merged into code). But none of the bindings, including ones internal to the API, are working. When he uses ChangeWatcher.canWatch on a bindable property, it returns false. What could the Flash IDE be stripping out that causes ChangeWatcher to stop functioning? What is ChangeWatcher.canWatch actually checking? Is it the metadata, and if so, how can the metadata be preserved in the Flash IDE?
I compiled a simple AS3 project using Flex 3.5 (also tried Flex 4.1) to create a small swf which draws a simple red square on screen. Nothing too complex that requires special flashplayer support (see code below)
package { import flash.display.Sprite; /**
[Code]....
and tried to load it into a AS2 swf I have compiled using Flash CS4. But that just didn't work. I don't get any errors when loading and the AS2 swf can load any swf, either compiled in AS2 or AS3 by Flash.
I am working on a feature for an application that requires Flex 4 functionality. Due to some migration issues of the application from Flex 3.5 to 4.0, I have decided to implement this feature as a module that is compiled with Flex 4.0. The theory is that the application would remain compiled in Flex 3.5 and load the module when it needs it.[code]
Several new UI/Query frameworks allow you to "bind" UI elements to data structures. When data in the structure is updated, the change propagates to the UI element, automatically. Some examples of this include the [Bindable] tag in Adobe Flex, and the "Bindable LINQ" extension for .NET .
I've built a form in Flex. When I run the flex project, I get a html file with some js, css and swf files (NOT A SINGLE FILE), swz files. When I run the main swf file alone, many things are working perfectly except at places where it needs to send a HTTPService request. When I use the html file, all works fine.
Now I want to do the following.Import this form made in flex into a flash site (actionscript 3)This form has various ViewStacks, where the user will be travelling through these. I want to reload the form back to its initial stage when the user wants to fill the fields again. Can there be any request sent to the Flash Site from this FORM, regarding the form submission success Can I compile the Flex Project to one single swf file, so that I can use this swf file without any Browser? Can I convert the webpage application Flex Project to an Adobe AIR application [URL]..
I've built a simple application in Flex Builder 3 with some trace() calls. It's an "ActionScript Project", no MXML or AIR involved. I don't run the app from within Eclipse, I just open the generated html file with Firefox.
I'm using the Flash Player 10 Debug version. I've correctly set mm.cnf to log trace output, following the official instructions. A flashlog.txt file is generate in the appropriate location.
Despite all that, trace output is not shown in the log file. What am I doing wrong?
(I suspect it's a compiler option, but I can find no such option in the project options in FlexBuilder)
(If I do run the app from Eclipse, by pressing F11, I can see trace output but only inside Eclipse, not in the log file)
I have firefox 3.6.15 with flash debug version 10.3. whenever an error occurs a popups comes up with the error and a stack trace but it does not line numbers of each leaf in the stack trace which makes it more difficult to debug. how to configure it to actually show line numbers ?
I think it may relate to how I compile my flash application. (i think!) i use eclipse FDT 4.2 to compile and i added the following compiler flags: -debug=true -compiler.verbose-stacktraces i think these parameters should be enough but I may be wrong.
I am learning Flash CS4, and I would love to be able to customize the key bindings in the ActionScript editor. Ideally I'd like to be able to use Emacs bindings (e.g. CTRL-n to go to next line, CTRL-a to go to beginning of line, etc.), but I don't see any way to set this kind of information. As powerful as I am finding Flash, I am a bit surprised at the limitations of the editor.
I am trying to create and build a flex library project (.swc) using maven 2 firsttime.I am able to create directory structure but build is failing. My maven settings are : Maven version : apache-maven-3.0.2
I have a Flex app that uses Flash Remoting and the RemoteObject to pull data from a ColdFusion CFC. About 75% of the time it works, but the other times I get a message using Charles (a debugging tool) that says faultString = "Unable to Invoke CFC". FaultCode = "Server.Processing".

I am working on a project using flex/java/blazeds. This worked fine on local host however now that i have uploaded to a tomcat server(online), after having an error with the service uri, this error has now seemingly been solved, yet I am receiving another error which is as follows:
I have a movieclip created in CS4. I export that into my Flex Project's /lib and then try to access the text. All the textfields have ids, embedded text, and show up in intellisense. But when i run the project, the textfield is blank. What is going on?It appears to only not work when the text is embedded. Non embedded text works fine.
I've got a flex app that hits a remote SOAP service and populates a list with the results.
It works fine when i run it through flex builder, but when i compile the application and move it onto a webserver it can't access the services.
I've tried it from a standalone webserver and on my own machine. I'm assuming that there's a security issue that i've missed as i can't think of any other reason why it's ok in flex builder but not when compiled on the same box.
I've run into this issue with my latest project, but I was able to re-create it with an almost empty project. Here is what I've done.
Created a new Flex Project Created a locale/en_US folder within this project. Added a class that extends SparkDownloadProgressBar. All this class does is attempt to create a Label.
When I try to debug this application, I get the following error.
Error: Could not find compiled resource bundle 'components' for locale 'en_US'. at mx.resources::ResourceManagerImpl/installCompiledResourceBundle()[E:dev4.0.0frameworksprojectsframeworksrcmx esourcesResourceManagerImpl.as:340]
[Code]....
The Flex Compiler/Additional Compiler Arguments section does contain "-locale en_US", but I do not want to just remove this as I am planning to have this load different property files based on the localization region at run-time and how I understand it, I will need to add each locale that I am planning to use on the compile argument line.
I have several Flex applications in a project, and I would like to know if there's a way to get a list of the classes (and ideally, other assets) that are being compiled into each one. I want an easy way of making sure I've kept things separate and there aren't unnecessary dependencies. Any ideas? I'm running Flash Builder 4.
I'm trying to compile an SWC file and everything works great until the part where it needs to add components, none of them added added to the .swc file at all.
The original file should be somewhere around 211 KB and when i compile it its only 1.64 KB, after unpacking the .swc and then the .swf inside it i can see that there is no components added at all.
BTW some components showing some errors but i dont think its a reason to not include ALL the components because the errors are like:
Description Resource Path Location Type 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before leftbrace. XXX.as /XXX/[source path] src/com/XXX line 1469 Flex Problem
What could the problem be? ask me if you need some future info cause i don't really know what to include in here cause there is no code it's only a project with a library.
When i load a swf made by Flex 2.0 in my code (which is made with AS 3.0 *.as classes and compiled with mxmlc.exe) - the rendering of the swf is highly unstable in Firefox.
The .swf file *does* load, and no errors is thrown as far as i can see at runtime when i addChild the loaded swf. When checking ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, i see the file getting loaded.
I can see the loaded swf-file visually in my Firefox-browser about 1/4 of the times i refresh the page. (I clear cache every time).
If i load a jpg-picture or a swf-file published from Flash 9 Public Alpha, (even Flash 8) everything works as a charm.
My Flashplayer is 9,0,16,0 for both IE and Firefox.
I have tried to turn on and off all imaginable settings inside Flex publishing settings, but nothing seems to help, and im renderd puzzled by the randomness of this error.
I'm not sure whether to post this in a flex forum or here,but since the error is generated from AS3 code, I'll try it here.When I try to load a compiled flex swf with the loader class.As a test I tried 2 very basic programs:See the actionscript code in the attached code..As you can see I just load the swf without doing anything.I've found very few threads about this error, and even less solutions...Does anyone know if it's even possible to load a Flex swf?
I have an ActionScript project with several classes that i compiled as an swf using Adobe Flex (by creating an actionscript project and clicking on export -> release build)Is there a way to load that swf so i'll be able to load it's classes and use them on a different swf? i know i can use the following code to load an swf file:[code]
Coding something in pure AS3 (no timeline, etc...) and am hitting a snag with masking a bitmap. Am I missing something here?
[Code]...
End result is nothing shows up whenever I set the mask property. Without setting the mask I see my noisy rectangle just fine. Can anyone see why the mask doesn't seem to be working?
$("#listView object.modal").click(function(){ // Get the ID of the clicked link: var link = $(this).closest("h2").attr("title");
[Code]....
This fires a modal (jQuery UI). It it working in FF, Chrome/Safari but not in IE 7/8. Is there something I'm missing here?
Big Picture: We're using a swf to render custom type and there is a link in the rendered (flash) content. We're hoping to catch the link action in the jQuery listener so we don't have to extend our swf have an optional param to return false on link click.
I have an instance of URLLoader that works perfectly on my machine and a number of other machines, but in a few rare cases, regardless of the browser or the flash player version, URLLoader never comes back with any of my callbacks and so the load() method is fired off into the stratosphere and nothing happens beyond that.Curious if anyone else has encountered this and if so how they got around it.[EDIT]Ok... never mind on the "no callbacks are fired". In fact it is firing the SecurityError.SECURITY_ERROR. However, I'm at a total loss as to why it would only fire this on some machines and not on others. Does it have something to do with the user's admin privileges or the browser's security settings? The error is 2170, phaseTwo (whatever that means)
I have found a bug in flash CS5, I was wondering if anyone else had this? This bug occurs in Flash CS5 when creating compiled clips which use the 3D rotation tool. It appears that if you attempt to convert a symbol which contains a 3D transformation to a compiled clip it will not work correctly. What makes this problem worse is that the error is not reported correctly and so it is nearly impossible to debug.
Im using Flash Builder 4 on the Mac and I have a worrisome problem: The compiler is sometimes not detecting my code changes.For example I might write some code, compile and run, then add some logging statements, but they will not print. After a clean compile everything runs as expected.I cannot see a pattern to the exclusion of changes. I'm wondering if anyone else is having the same problem?
Details:
Flash Bulider 4 Pure AS3 project targetting Flex3.5 SDK Max OS X Snow Leopard My code does not use semicolons to terminate statements
This seems like a lot for what is essentially byte code. I'm not using any images. I have vector art in there but it's mostly straight line geometric stuff, no complicated wiggly art or anything. I'm not using any Components.My entire codebase comes in at 167k of Actionscript. So how can I be using 294k of byte code?
I have a Flash Professional CS5 project with ActionScript 3. I have a movieclip object with several gotoAndPlay ActionScript commands inside of it. I also have other gotoAndPlay commands on the main stage, linked to interactive events.
When I run the project via Ctrl+Enter, it works perfectly, without any issues. However, once I compile it down to a .swf or an Air 3.0 file, it runs, but omits some or all of the gotoAndPlay commands, both the ones inside of and outside of the stage.
