LinkeSetFx has its own CollectionEvent, but I don't know how to map the LinkedSetFx event to mx.events.collectionEvent(I want use it in ComboBox). LinkedSetFx is in AS3Commons-collection framework.Here is the url, choose the as3commons-collections-1.0.0.zip, you'll find LinkedSetFx in srcorgas3commonscollectionsfx

When I get a collection back from the service tier, I create an ArrayCollection and apply a sort. When I add an item to the collection later on, the sort is still in place? It seems to be the case. I thought I was only sorting it once, not applying a sort that will stick??Here is the method for adding an item:
private function onAddNewClick():void
{
var fileTemplate:FileTemplateDetailDTO = new FileTemplateDetailDTO();

I have written a custom component for drawing a circle in Flex. But When I try to write a click event or mouseDown event for that component, it doesn't work.[code]...
The "Hello" Alert is displayed only at a particular point and guess is, at the point, (175,150) the x, y co-ordinates of the circle. But shouldn't it be displayed wherever I click on the MyCircle component?? how to enable it in that way?
Also the mouseDown function doesn't work for MyCircle,but if have the event for the VBox, the Alerts are displayed.
I have an array, crewPositionsAC that contains a list of position abreviatations - EP, PR, DR, WR, and so on. These positions are read in through an XML file each time my flex application loads. Also being populated from an XML is a project. Within a project, there are positions (a student assigned to a type of position listed within crewPositionsAC). These positions are not necessarily in the correct hierarchy order dictated by crewPositionsAC. I have all the positions within an ArrayCollection (positionsAC) with the following structure:
positionsAC (arrayCollection)
[0] = Array
[0] = startOffset
[1] = numDays
[code].....
Then, the user can click a button to add another position. When the "Add Crew Member" button is pressed, the user is presented with a list of possible positions to add. Currently, I simply add another array to positionsAC. This results in the recently added crew member to placed on the bottom of the list. I need to take positionsAC and reorder it based on it's [2] item (role) based on the hierarchy defined in the crewPositionsAC. crewPositionsAC has the following structure:
crewPositionsAC:
[0] = EP
[1] = PR
[2] = DR
[3] = WR
* continue until all possible position types are listed
In my flex application im using two datagridfirst datgrid is for items collectionssecond is for bank details.if i click one row in first datagrid (which has the items collections)...a unique code is taken from the grid(which is primary key).then, i have to select two or more banks using itemrenderer checkboxes in second datagrid(which has the bank details)ow, have to bind the bank details(one or more banks) with that one primary key in first datagrid. to an single array collection... and have to show it in another new datagrid(thirdone)

View 1 RepliesI have a collection in Flex and I have sorted it by a date field, so the latest elements appear first in my view.
In order to do this I have applied a sort field like so:
var articleSort:Sort = new Sort();
articleSort.fields = [ new SortField('published', false, true), new SortField('id', true, true)];
articles.sort = articleSort;
articles.refresh();
Now I want to be able to use a cursor to findFirst() in that collection based on the id. However in order to do that I have to also pass through the published date in the findFirst() method. This is a real pain as I don't have the published date at that time, (or it's expensive to get).
articleCoursor.findFirst({ published: modelLocator.articles.getArticleById(event.newArticleId).published, id: event.newArticleId });
As you can see I am having to get it from the modelLocator in my application, and basically look up the item...
Ideally I would like to pass a wildcard though for the date in the FindFirst() function, as the id is the only thing I care about when searching. However it seems it Flex I can't do that.
The other option that occurred to me is to resort the collection before searching, but that would cause my view to re-render (as it's bound to the collection) on the collections refresh event. Plus it seems rather silly to have to resort in order to search.

View 1 RepliesFor example in Java you can do:List<Person> where Person is the object type.In AS3/FlexArrayCollection which takes any object type. Is there any way to create a list/collection of declared objects in AS3/Flex (or is it impossible due to weakly typed language)?

View 2 RepliesIm trying to populate a tree control with an external xml file brought in via arraycollection but i need to group the xml data to display in the tree Okay my external xml file is called parts.xml and it looks like this:
[Code]...
additionally what i intend is for the user to have huge tree of parts and they select a node at the partnumber level and drag an drop it on to a datagrid where all the other tags of the part gets displayed.
Ive tried and tried many things without any luck. even now im thinking maybe if i looped through the array-collection and created a new array just for the tree to get it to display the way i need it, then when the user dragged and drop a part onto the grid i would have code that would look for that part number in the original arraycollection and add it to a new array just for the datagrid... i still dont know how i would create that new array for the tree!! cause the xml data is grouped by partgroup and then grouped again by parttype before you get the individual part numbers
Is it possible for me to filter only a certain column in a arraycollection but still displaying the other values in a datagrid?
View 1 RepliesI have an array collection that I would like to limit to say 100 items. I tried setting up a filter function where the return was:return (myAC.getItemIndex(item) > 100);but the value was always -1. For whatever reason it couldn't find the item, even though the item is definitely there.I'm able to do this with a while loop:while(myAC.length > 100) myAC.removeItemAt(100);
View 4 RepliesI have two xml files, defect. xml and employee.xml. But the files havea common field but with different names in each file. I want both the files to be merged in to a single array collection.
The structure of my defect.xml file is:
<defectList>
<defect>
<revId>123</revId>
[Code]....
Now, if I give datafield as "employeeId" in the datagrid with defectList as dataprovider, I get the employee id of the corresponding Employee Name.
May I know what is the proper way to keep track of display objects created and hence allow me to remove it efficiently later, for garbage collection. For example:
for(i=0; i<100; i++){
var dobj = new myClass(); //a sprite
addChild(dobj);

I've got an XML Doc loaded in. I've created an Horizontal List and referenced the arraycollection as the Data Provider. But what I need to do now is then pull the data out from that. I have 3 nodes / variables. They are id, title, thumbnail. But when I go to pull through the data as : {videos.title} Flex Builder gives me the Error - "Access of undefined property videos". Now I know full well it exists, as when I set the dataProvider to {videos} it pulls through the data without issue.
My code is as follows :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="[URL]"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
minWidth="800" minHeight="600"
[Code] .....
How do I go about getting the XML Node : title and of course the thumbnail too?

View 1 RepliesYesterday when playing a game (Balloons Tower Defense 3) I noticed that the game started to slow down over time and then randomly speed up very quickly. Looking at the memory usage dropping each time I assumed it was the GC running.
As a legitimate question, is there anyway to force Flash to GC from, say, Firefox? Perhaps there's an addon or a command you can run that will do this? I know that you can do System.gc() but this game isn't mine so I can't modify the source with a "Click here to GC" button.
Does flex allow empty, or missing, keys within an array collection? For example, would the following code be okay:

I have an array collection set as a datagrid's dataprovider. I'm pulling content from my relational database and 2 of the columns in the grid appear as foreign keys.
How do I go about replacing the foreign key id with information from the other table?
I'm guessing I need to do some sort of: for each, but I'm really not sure how.
I want to use single collection object to two different UI components. 1. Datagrid and 2nd is chart component. I dont want to change anything inside the arraycollection object but I want to use it at the same time with two different component with minor changes. I know we can use filter function some how but not sure how to apply filter to arraycollection object so that one component (datagrid) can use the original arraycollection object and second component (chart) used the modified one.

I have a standard combobox that dispatches a collection event when the dataprovider finishes initializing:
my_cb.addEventListener( CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE, getMyStuff );
Then I have a custom component that also has a dataProvider. How do I get it to dispatch a collection change event when its dataprovider finishes loading?From what I've read, I can't do it. Will dispatching a propertychangeevent work?
UPDATE:I have a custom component that I call 'SortingComboBox' but it is not a ComboBox at all; it extends Button and I set is dataProvider property to my arraycollection, model.product (which is an arraycollection). how I use the dataProvider in that component:
code
[Bindable]
private var _dataProvider : Object;
public function get dataProvider() : Object
{[code]..........
In the createChildren() method of this component, I use this:
BindingUtils.bindProperty(dropDown, "dataProvider", this, "dataProvider");
The dropDown is a custom VBox that I use to display labels.
I'm trying to make annotations on an image. I want to store all these annotations into a collection so that I can later remove or edit particular note(annotation).I'm creating a UIComponent instance for example markUp and doing

markUp.graphics.moveTo(x1, y1);
markUp.graphics.lineTo(x2, y2);

View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know an Actionscript equivalent of the javascript getElementsByClassName.
What I would like to do is add a custom 'stylename' to various components which I can then use to get a collection of these objects and therefore process their visibility property.
The idea is I want to hide various components based on what roles a logged in user has - I just want to make this flexible by adding an array of rolenames to a custom property or use the stylename property on a Canvas or Panel etc.
