Flex :: Flash - Get The Root Node Of An XML Object
May 27, 2010
How do I get the root node of an XML object in Actionscript?
One would think that I could say this:
var Node:XMLNode = XMLVar as XMLNode;
But although XMLVar is of type XML, Node will = null.

I'm having trouble accessing the value of the root node of an XML variable in flex. For example:
[Code]....
I can change the "Type" attribute above with X.@Type="xyz"; But how do I change "Content123" to something else? If the xml document were longer/deeper, I could say something like X.Entry[11].Cost=2.22; But what do I say in this case? Obviously X="Content456" doesn't work...

I have inherited a Flex air project and have not worked with trees before. The tree is displaying an xml file hierarchically. The user can make a change to the data. I need to save the data of the entire tree to a file.I can save the currently selected item to a file, no problem. But I need to save all the data from the root of the tree, forward.I would think I could make a copy of the tree, and set the selected item of my new tree to root, or something. Sort of like this pseudo code:
var treeToSave:Tree = new Tree (editedTree);
treeToSave.selectedIndex = 0;
// now save treeToSave to file...
This creates a compile error, but hopefully you can see what I'm trying to do.

I have a XML file that doesn't have a <root> node so when using c# XmlReader to create it doesn't like multiple nodes, so what I need to do is script a new way to read the xml file but passing the <Root> node and continuing as the current xml doesn't have it.
This is the current script
Code:
xmlData.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
//first node is for continents - their countries and color
xmlNode = this.childNodes[0]; //xmlNode = Continents
for (var counter:Number = 0; counter < xmlNode.childNodes.length; counter++) {

I have looked at some of the related posts on this subject but i can't figure out how to solve my problem. I guess it has something to do with the fact that its monday.Well, here goes. i have a XML object containing:
<root>
<page>
<text>[code]....
And i want to replace only the label node with a new one. i put the new ones in an XMLList but now im stuck at how im supose to replace the actual nodes. This is how the XMLList looks like:
<page>
<text>
<style properties=""/>[code].....

I'm having troubles expanding the root node of my AdvancedDataGrid. Simplified code below:
adg.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, adgCreationHandler);
private function adgCreationHandler(event.FlexEvent): void {
adg.expandItem(groupCol.getRoot(), true)
}
Does anyone have any thoughts on why this approach won't expand my root node, or another easy way of expanding the root node by default when the AdvancedDataGrid is loaded?

I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.
[Code]...
My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.

I am trying to build an MXML application with Flash Builder 4.5, and I am integrating an API that requires the root of a display object to be a MovieClip. Personally I think this is bad design but I have to go with it. The root object always seems to end up as the stage, because of course I have to add the object to the stage for it to be added to the display list. Is there some way that I can either change the stage type in an MXML application to a MovieClip or is there some way to force a MovieClip wrapper to become the root of a display object?

I have a root stage, and a MC that is called from the root stage.Now from that MC, i will called in another MC2, and I wanted to placed the MC in the center of the stage. The reason I could not use normal ADDED_TO_STAGE at MC and define the center is because MC is not place in the exact position of the root stage (as in x, y=0). So if I would target MC2 at MC stage center, it would not be the exact center of the root stage/screen.How can I called the root stage properties rather than adding MC2 into the stage?

Is it possible to pull the currentFrame of the root timeline from inside an object class? Normally a currentFrame call only checks the frame of the movieclip it's attached to within an object class, so how would you go about checking the frame of the entire project from within the object class file?
edit: Nevermind, I found what I was looking for. All you have to do is use MovieClip(root).currentFrame and it works just fine. Consider the question answered.

I am in a very peculiar situation here with my AS3 code. I was profiling my app in Flash Builder 4.5.1 as it seemed that it wasn't GC-ing some objects properly.
how to get rid of this object? Or how to determine what is holding it alive?
What does 1 Path mean? What is that GC Root and how it got there?
I am using robotlegs with IModuleContext, SignalCommandMap, LazyMediatorMap.
EDIT #1: It could be related to the robotlegs injector issue... or not, still waiting for some answers.

What are the rules for something to be a GC root in Flash? I'm using the Flash Builder 4 profiler, and I'm finding odd things are labeled as GC roots in the object reference details (e.g., an Image control that is no longer in the display list, nor static).

i get this error when i retrieve an XML that only has 1 node (no repeating nodes) and i try to store in an ArrayCollection. -When I have MORE than 1 "name" nodes...i do NOT get an error. My test show that XMLListCollection does NOT work either.
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "XXXXXX" to mx.collections.ArrayCollection.
this error occurs as the line of code:
myList= e.result.list.name;
Why can't ArrayCollection work with a single node? I'm using this ArrayCollection as a dataprovider for a Component -is there an alternative I can use that will take BOTH single and repeating nodes as well as work as a dataprovider?
code:
[Bindable]
private var myList:ArrayCollection= new ArrayCollection();
private function getList(e:Event):void{
var getStudyLoungesService:HTTPService = new HTTPService();

In services-config.xml we got following configuration of endPoint.
<channel-definition id="any-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel">
<endpoint url="http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amf" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>
</channel-definition>
Before compiling flash application i set up context-root as compilaction option.
binmxmlc -context-root / -services "flex/services-config.xml" -optimize=true -o ....inMessenger.swf Messenger.as
In my case this is "/"
And the problem is that messanger.swf is able to pull request if the web application is started as ROOT in tomcat webapps. I mean it can only be access by this url localhost:8080/. If i try to move webaplication to another folder - for example to localhost:8080/myApplication messenger.swf would not work properly sinse i have to change root_context as well.
So my question how to dinamicly determine context-root in run time, without hardcode it as option of compiler ? I want my .war application work properly regardless of it position in webapps folder(url).

Is there any opensourse, free set of components for creating Flex mxml graphs? like aviary Peacock style ones with at least Drag, drop, and connect generators so each graph element could have or something like that. Framework should be opensource (like GPL, LGPL etc) BTW: I found one wary bacic made by Erno Aapa with Degrafa but I would really love to see something much more Flex 4 - mxml oriented and frienfdly.

Why does FlexBuilder insist on a main class in the root of the source folder? By insist I mean that if I create an Actionscript project called MainTest. A file called MainTest.as will be placed in the root of the src folder. if I now create a package/folder called some/package and place the MainTest.as in it (and adjust the package statement accordingly), I cannot select the project to use this as the application class in Properties/Actionscript Applications as the package is empty as far as Flexbulider is concerned.
So there is a restriction that a main/application class cannot have a package other than the root package. The mxmlc compiler and FDT do not enforce this restriction so why does Flex Builder?
