Flex :: Iis - App Rest Service Calls Bypass Windows Authentication?
Mar 9, 2011I have a flex app hosted on a windows server running IIS. That same server has some rest services that the app interacts with. The rest services have windows authentication so that their urls cannot be called without credentials. The flex app needs to be accessible to the public so its files are accessed by enabling anonymous access. The problem is of course that when the app tries to call the rest services the browser pops a dialog box asking for windows username and pass. I naively hoped that if I set the anonymous access on the flex site to use the credentials of a windows account that had permission to view the rest services that would resolve the matter. I hoped that IIS would see the browser used the proper creds to view the flex app and use those same creds to get the rest services. Wrong, that didn't work.
So is what I want impossible? I'd like to find a way to not force the user to enter windows creds, keep the rest services using windows authentication, and have the flex app able to access the rest urls. Any ideas? Am I missing something? Also, it may turn out that the flex app is running on http and the rest services must be called with https. Does that change your answer?
Android :: Program Run On A Virtual Device Consume A Web Service?
Dec 6, 2011I made a program in Eclipse that is supposed to run on an Android device. I got excited when it worked on the virtual device, but when I deployed it, it doesn't properly consume the web service that lets you authenticate. I'm using Flex to create the program, and the service is written in C# and hosted on IIS 7.0. Also, we've had trouble here with Androids and DNS, so I've changed all of the references that I could find to the domain name of the server to the IP address of the server.

Web Services :: Manually Consume WSDL In Flex Builder 3?
Oct 31, 2011I'm trying to consume a .Net web service of mine in a Flex Builder 3 project. The function's signature in the service is:
bool MyFunction(Enums.Channels var1, Enums.Payments.PayMethods var2)
I tried importing the WSDL with the wizard but when I tried to call the web service it results in an error stating
"Cannot marshall type "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema::EnumsChannel"to simple type"
What kind of object do I need to create in Flex Builder 3 to pass into the webservice so that it will recognize it as the appropriate type? The wizard is not correctly creating the appropriate type. Here is the xsd for the enums.
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:tns="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/My.Shared" elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/My.Shared">
<xs:simpleType name="Enums.Channels">[code]....
I'd like to try to build my own objects to call the service myself (without the wizard).... created the mx:WebService and mx:Operation but not sure how to handle the enum parameters.
Php :: Flex Service - Bind A Service To A Button
Feb 2, 2011I am experiencing a strange problem when I want to bind a service to a button or something else:
[Code]...
I can add the services to the Data Services panel but I have two strange things:
1) when I want to configure the return type he doesn't let me create a new ValueObject type, I only get the bottom datagrid which states: Properties returned by the operation: Property: country_Id, provence_Id, city_Id, id_cdpc, district_Id with the related values on the right side. Why can't I create a new data type on the top?
2) When I accept this and want to add the service call to a button (drag&drop) I get the following error: Error occurred while generating code. Make sure that there are no compiler eroors and try again after reopening the file. Componentn type services.cdpc.CDPC not found... (ps: When I perform a Test Operation everything seems to be ok, I get the expected output values)
Flash :: Make Flex Only Consume Mouse Scroll And Keyboard Events?
Feb 5, 2011This one's been irking me for a while. When I'm using the mouse scroll wheel to scroll up and down in a webpage, and a flash movie comes into the path of the cursor, the scroll wheel stops working. Also, when a flash movie has focus, you can't use browser shortcuts like Ctrl + L or Ctrl + R.
I'm writing a flex application now and I'd like to find a solution, so that at least my users aren't plagued by this inconsistency of the user interface behavior.
I should think there would be a way to tell flash to propagate such events as the mouse scroll wheel and keyboard input back up to the browser unless they occur in an element for which they are useful, like in a flex textarea. I can't find any solutions out there though, nor even anyone talking about it.
Specifically, how can I make it so that:
When the user is scrolling with the mouse, the browser scrolls unless the mouse is over a flex container with scrollbar, or another component that wants to scroll.When the user presses a button or combination of buttons on the keyboard, it will be propagated to the browser unless there is an active keyboard listener, or the cursor is in a text field, etc.
Flex - Get Settings/properties Into A Flex/FlashBuilder Application?

View 3 RepliesFlex :: Transitioning From FlexBuilder 3 To FlashBuilder 4?
Mar 24, 2010It's growing pains time again. Some of our stuff requires FlashBuilder 4 and some still requires FlexBuilder 3. Both are installed OK, and no projects use both IDEs. The trouble is, when I go back to work on a FlexBuilder 3 project it takes freakin' forever to build and I get weird errors like these: This doesn't seem to cause any identifiable problems except to throw up a modal dialog at various points in the build process, forcing user interaction. But I do notice that memory fills up fast in FB3 and generally FB3 starts behaving strangely and ultimately quits once it gets up over 700MB.
This is only a temporary bridge situation until we get all projects into FB4, but "temporary" could mean weeks if not months. Does anyone have any advice for how to get through this bridge period? Is there anything I can do to make these two IDEs work and play well together? Failing that, does anyone know what "java.lang.String" is the "reason" for the problem? Does Eclipse have a resource bundle somewhere that is getting corrupted when i go back and forth between the two?

View 1 RepliesFlex :: BackgroundDisabledColor Error When Upgrading From FlashBuilder 4?
Apr 30, 2010I've upgraded a FlexBuilder3 project to FlashBuilder4, and I am seeing many compilation errors regarding unsupported tag attributes:
The style 'backgroundDisabledColor' is only supported by type 'mx.controls.TextInput' with the theme(s) 'halo'
Here is the offending mxml element:
<mx:TextInput x="245" y="86" id="code1" maxChars="15" change="enableButton(event)" cornerRadius="9" borderStyle="solid" backgroundDisabledColor="#7977b6" />
what is the best workaround for this particular error? I was able to easily resolve a similar error with the "backgroundColor" attribute by changing it to "contentBackgroundColor", and was hoping there was a simple workaround for backgroundDisabledColor as well. I realize I can apply a css style, but I'd rather have a simpler solution as there are many many other attribute errors similar to this one.
Flex :: Flashbuilder 4 Gumbo States Are Sometimes Blank?

I suspect the children of the state are not getting created for some reason, which is why I set the itemCreationPolicy to "immediate", but it makes no difference This is catastrophic for the application because the user is left in limbo and is forced to refresh

Flex :: Error When Migrating A FlashBuilder Project To FDT?
Dec 6, 2010I'm migrating a FlashBuilder project (actually a project I'm working on with FlexBuilder eclipse plugin on Linux) to use FDT. I managed to import the project, and make it aware of other projects it depends on.
However I get lots of compile errors for things that seem harmless (and used to compile). At least, for example :
<mx:SomeClass initialize="{this.init()}" ... >
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[code]....
So, I get "unresolved function" for all the calls of the form someAttribute="{this.someFunction()}", even though the function is described in the same block file. Is it that I've been abusing AS3 / FlashBuilder for all this time ?
Also, generic components have problem. Assume I have a class with a deferred 'content' attribute, and I want to instanciate this class and "fill the blank" : I define a custom component in a CustomComponent.mxml file, with a deferred content
<mx:VBox>
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
public var content : IDeferredInstance;
[code]....
I'm using FDT 4.0, under Linux, with a (valid) eval key I'm using a custom Flex 3.5 SDK (not one shipped with FDT, but not a too strange one either)
Flex :: Spark Form Not Showing Up In Flashbuilder 4
Jun 9, 2011I am going through the flex in a week training and I'm trying to use the Spark form in Flashbuilder 4, but it does not appear in the components windows.

How can I get the spark form control to either show up in the designer when created in the code view, or get the control to show up in the components window so I can drag it in?

View 1 RepliesFlex :: FlashBuilder 4.5 : Type Was Not Found Or Was Not A Compile-time Constant
Nov 17, 2011First I create a new ActionScript Project, then add a Library Project's bin folder to the build path, and reference the Library Project. I code the new project, and everything works fine. But later, when I'm optimizing the code, I'll create a new ActionScript class file in the Library Project, save it, and then change an already defined function within the ActionScript Project to use this new ActionScript class in the Library Project instead of some other class in the Library Project. The class file is in the Library Project's src folder, under (default package), same as all the other files the ActionScript Project is using successfully.At this point, FlashBuilder shows an error "Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: PEArrays."
Here is the Library Project file:
package
{
public class PEArrays
{
[code]...
I have included import PEArrays; or, import PEArrays.*; and both result in the same error.Also, I tried exiting and re-entering FlashBuilder, didn't help. Cleaning the ActionScript Project had no effect on this error. I also right-clicked on the project folder and selected Refresh, but it didn't help.
I verified that the needed classes are correctly selected by going to Project>Properties>Flex Library Build Path and reviewing the Classes tab. I'm just a single developer so there's no version control system in place.
After troubleshooting a bit, I now find that the ActionScript Project folder's bin directory is empty. When I run the .as file in the ActionScript Project's src folder, I get an error that the ASname.html file cannot be found (where ASname is the ActionScript Project name and also the .as file name, e.g. ASname.as, in the src folder, which is run). This ASname.html file is not found in the html-template folder. What process generates this needed .html file?
Actionscript 3 :: Do Lightweight REST Calls In Flex
Dec 19, 2010We are converting a Flex application to use some REST APIs.
When adding the mx.rpc.http.HTTPService class to the code, the SWF binary output grew from 175KB to 260KB. This is an unacceptable hit.
Is there any better way to do lightweight REST calls from a Flex app? Are we better off using an external interface JS just to make the calls from there?
