View 1 RepliesI have a flash template ( flash 8 and AS -2) and there is a very simple contact form to send mail through php. It works fine. My question is how can I capable of attach image, text,pdf file with this mail.

View 2 RepliesI'm going to write an application with the Air/Flex-Framework. I'm looking for Best Practise and general Design Patterns for designing software especially in Air/Flex. I have experience with this framework but never had the pleasure to write a piece of software from scratch.
For instance: I stumbled across lots of software written in Air/Flex with nearly infinity global vars Most of the software I saw was not object-oriented How can I pack the asynchronous method calls nicely?
I'm familiar with general design patterns by gamma. I'm looking more for advise in designing good quality software with Adobe Air/Flex.
In the past I have created a flash contact form online which used PHP to send emails which worked perfectly.My new project wants to be able to upload a file (PDF only) and then use PHP to email it to me as an attchment. I cannot do this yet but there seems to be enough resources online to figure it out.
My main question is that along with the attchment, I'd like flash to generate anothger attachment which would contain information the user had entered (many fileds including address and file info etc) - possibly in XML. When I get this attchment, I would like somehow to use a different flash program locally to import this xml file to its own database.
Is there a smart way of doing this other than manually dragging the xml file from the email into a folder and then locating it through flash to import it? Maybe running a BAT dos program to move/copy/launch things?
I have created an empty movieclip to which I've attached two mc's. Now I want to duplicate this movieclip. But all it seems to be doing is copying the empty mc without its attached mc's.
ActionScript Code:
var samen = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("samen"+samenNum, ++samenNum);
samen.attachMovie("vierkantbiblio","erin", depth, {_xscale: xscale, _yscale: yscale, _x: 0, _y: 0, _rotation: rot} );
samen.attachMovie("cirkelbiblio","erin2", depth2, {_xscale: xscale2, _yscale: yscale2, _x: xpos2-xpos, _y: ypos2-ypos} );
copy = samen.duplicateMovieClip("samen"+copyNum, ++copyNum);
//DOESN'T WORK

I have two web applications written in Flex I would like to integrate. I would like one Flex app (let's call it application A) to invoke second Flex app (let's call it application B). Application A has access only to swf file of application B (not source code). When application A invokes application B, it should be able to pass some data to application B. After application B is invoked it should be able to pass some data back to application A. These two applications will be hosted on the same server, but will use different server code.
The easiest way of implementing this (or one of the ways to be more precise) would be to have UI element on app A (button, link, menu item, etc) that would invoke app B. But in that case, two Flex applications couldn't communicate directly (since only one is active at a time), and they would have to communicate through server code, which is something I would like to avoid.
In short application A should invoke application B, pass some data to it. Application B should do it's work, display some content, and have a mean of passing some data back to application A. I'm aware of LocalConnection, and I've seen similar question, but in that case I would have to have both application in the same browser window. This would be acceptable to some extend, but only if app B is contained in app A (not if they are both on the same HTML page). Would LocalConnection work in that case?
Do you have any recommendations on how to implement this kind of communication?
Something conflicting with Adobe Flash that won't allow email attachments in gmail I have been speaking with senior techs in the google forum, and they suggested I post here. There is something about my computer settings or security software is conflicting with Adobe Flash. I did a clean install of both Flash 10 and Firefox 3.5.7 (I uninstalled the previous versions). The problem is with gmail. I get the error message when attaching files: "Attachment failed. This may be due to a proxy or firewall."

Is it possible to get list of installed AIR applications, optionally only by one vendor?
Or, is it possible to check, whether is one application (checked by name/some id/vendor) installed (this method would be preferred)

View 2 RepliesI have an AIR application that is packaged with a network appliance and that is used to configure that network appliance...much like a the embedded webservers on home routers except this is an installed AIR app.
If I want to communicate with the appliance on a port higher that 1024, do I need that appliance to serve up a socket policy file or is AIR considered a trusted sandbox. All the info I find relates to Flash Player and the web, but this particular AIR app is communicating in a closed environment.
we try to develop a flash game engine with several abstraction layers. This flex project contains: an Application (1)-> loading a class (2)-> loading another class (3) which instanciates a Flex component (4).
The loadings uses SWFLoader. The last Flex component (4) is just a Group with AdvancedDataGrid. We do not define skins so I suppose it must take default skin.The problem is that during execution, an error is throwed because default skin for components cannot be found in the Flex component (4). In our case, for the AdvancedDataGrid:
Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.In mx.controls::AdvancedDataGridBaseEx. The guilty command is: getStyle("headerSeparatorSkin"); which returns null
For the moment, we found two solutions :
the first solution is to add the attribute headerSeparatorSkin="spark.skins.SparkSkin" into the AdvancedDataGrid of the Flex component .
How can align my application to the left in Flex ? The application is horizontally centered and when I resize the browser window it stays centered. It is not css padding, it is flex padding, so I guess I have work with Flex code.
I've tried to add the following properties to the Application container: paddingLeft="0", left="0".. but it doesn't work. Still centered. I've also tried to set "align","left" in the html/javascript code, but it doesn't solve the issue, because the padding is inside the flex application.
I have a requirement to print a bill from the AIR application.
Following are the constraints.
I need to print to a DotMatrix Printer. I have a complex layout with header, footer and a datagrid with data rolling out to more that one page. I need to have a template to which I will be passing my object.The suffice with the usage of Jasper reports, but I have no server side support.I tried the FlexReport, bentbit and other tools which is optimized for the DotMatrix printers.
Is there a alternative to get the above requirements done. Is there any alternative similar to that of jasper reports without going for a server.
When I'm making projects with Flex (or Flash Builer) the end result usually performs much better than a similar level project made with the Flash authoring tool. I know Flash IDE is rather for animations and design heavy works so you can't really compare these 2 tools, but this question is bugging me for a long time.If apps made with Flex (or Flash Builder) are really faster and less CPU intensive - why is that?
View 1 RepliesI am a beginner in this so I am not sure what would be better. I read that Android API is targeted towards Eclipse, however, I read that Flex allows you to use your apps on Android and iOS at once, reducing the need for two apps.
The kind of app I am building will involve reading data from the gyro, and making some calculations, then reporting it to a server.

I know we can pass parameters from module to application and vice versa.
What would be the best way to secure .net web services used by a flex application (both desktop and browser) that requires login? I thought about requesting the user and password in every method of the web service, and having them stored as variables in the flex app, but I don't feel like this is the most elegant way.
View 2 RepliesThere is an ongoing argument on the web right now about the "openness" of the iPhone OS and Adobe Flash platforms. Adobe's argument is that anyone can build a Flash application without having to worry about being allowed to distribute it.
This made me wonder... is it possible to build and distribute an AIR application without giving any money to Adobe (without violating any licenses, of course)? Are any of these tools free? Are any open-source?
Flex is a client-side language and based on events. How can such events be mocked to allow unit testing?

The overall aim of my project is to communicate between two Playbook flex applications. I found this article and tried it out:

We are starting to build a Flex 4.5 application (with LCDS) and a Spring/Hibernate based backend.In this context, is there a well-known list of overall performance optimization techniques that one could follow to ensure optimal performance on the client (flex) side? - especially, given that we anticipate users with poor bandwidths
View 1 RepliesI have 2 AIR applications (A and B) that are able to communicate via a LocalConnection object. I've verified that messages are definitely being sent/received appropriately.
I want to be able to have A tell B to come to the front. Both applications are full screen:
stage.fullScreenSourceRect = new Rectangle(0, 0, 1080, 1920);
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;
I've tried several permutations, but as of yet nothing seems to work.
private function initSlave(channel: String): void {
conn = new LocalConnection();
conn.client = {
[Code]...
If I leave both applications in windowed mode (stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.NORMAL), then toggling alwaysInFront actually works. Calling activate() or orderToFront() still do nothing. If I try to toggle alwaysInFront and then set the application to fullscreen, the application ends up fullscreen behind my windowed app. Maybe there is an event I should wait for before setting the app to fullscreen?
I found a thread mentioning that orderToFront() only works relative to windows within the same application, which explains why it doesn't seem to do anything.
Does anyone have any insights into pulling this off? Maybe there is a way for me to embed B into application A so they are actually the same application? I am not sure how to do this with an AIR application as simply as just loading the SWF due to requiring external resources.
