Xml :: Flex - Read Atributes From An Arraycollection?

Feb 23, 2011

I'm reading an XML file with the httpservice in actionscript, and putting it into an arraycollection like this (where readings is the repeating node and data is the root node):

graphData = new ArrayCollection([event.result.data.readings]);

However I want to change the format of the xml file im reading to put the values in as attributes instead of values between tags (the reason im doing this is the xml files where huge and this method would require just one line with 5 attributes per reading, rather than 5 open and closing tags on separate lines).Its loading ok into the array collection, but how do I access the attributes?before I would access the time value say as follows:

graphData.getItemAt(0).time

so I figured it may be as easy as:

graphData.getItemAt(0).@time

but this doesnt work, can it be done?

Flex :: Mxml - Components Bound To Empty ArrayCollection At Load Time Don't Render As Expected When The ArrayCollection Is Updated?

Oct 27, 2009

I'm new to Flex and am using TileList bound to an ArrayCollection. The array collection is empty at load time, and then updates with the results from am HTTPService call. The problem is that the item renderers aren't being rendered as expected, I'm guessing because there was no data when they were first rendered at load time. Here's simplified example:

Flex :: Datagrid - ItemRenderer Flex Values Getting Not Rendered According To ArrayCollection Provider?

Feb 4, 2011

i have a problem using the itemRenderer functionality. When using an ArrayCollection the visible Data in the DataGrid using the itemRenderer will be rendered just fine. But if i start scrolling the entries are repeating in the cells using the renderer. The cells are not filled with date according to the id. What mistake i'm doing here.

I read a lot of the explainations like:

Flex :: ArrayCollection Versus Vector Objects In FLEX?

Apr 20, 2010

the applicable differences between an ArrayCollection and a Vector in flex? I'm unsure if I should be using one over the other. I saw that Vector is type safe and that makes me feel better, but are there disadvantages?

Php :: Zend_AMF: Get A ArrayCollection From Flex?

Sep 22, 2009

I currently have an arrayCollection in Flex and I want to sent it to PHP (Zend_AMF). According to the Zend_AMF wiki, sending an arrayCollection over directly will force Zend_AMF to cast the arrayCollection as an object which is no good. I'd rather have an array of my models. I assume the best way would be to convert the arrayCollection to an array in flex and then send it over. Is this true, and if so how would I do that in Flex 3? If you have a better recommendation,

Context:

Flex :: How To Get Memory Size Of ArrayCollection

Feb 2, 2010

I have built an image cache which is an ArrayCollection containing images. I have built functionality so that the cache can hold a max of 250 images. However, the images can be of a different size, so it's better to limit the total memory size of all images in the ArrayCollection. How I can get the total memory size of an ArrayCollection without looping through all the items in the ArrayCollection?

Flex :: AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider ChildrenField ArrayCollection?

Feb 5, 2010

I have a main class ClassA that has a bunch of "normal" properties that are simple datatype like ints, strings, etc. It also has one property ("childItems") that is an ArrayCollection of ClassB.I am using an ArrayCollection of ClassA as the source for an hierarchical data provider for an AdvancedDataGrid. I set the childrenField to "childItems".

I want to display some information about the list of ClassB objects in a nested table and pie chart, an AdvancedDataGridItemRendererProvider (columnIndex = 0, columnSpan = 0, depth = 2) and point it to my custom renderer which is an HBox with the table and the pie chart in it.

In order to see what is being set, I override the "set data" function in my custom renderer and what I see is that each instance of ClassB in the ArrayCollection is passed to the renderer separately.

Here is my question: I expected the whole ArrayCollection of ClassB instances to be passed to the custom renderprovider once and not each item in the child list individually. How do I make the ADG understand that the whole property is supposed to be passed as the data to the renderer and not each entry separately? Btw, when I change the data type of "childItems" from ArrayCollection to ArrayList, the whole list gets passed and I can easily do what I want to do. But based on my understanding, ArrayList is not really supposed to be used and ArrayCollection is better or at least more common.

Flex :: Getting Unique Elements From An ArrayCollection?

Mar 19, 2010

I have an ArrayCollection as mentioned below.

private var initDG:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{fact: "Order #2314", appName: "AA"},
{fact: "Order #2315", appName: "BB"}[code].....

I want to populate a ComboBox with UNIQUE VALUES of "appName" field from the ArrayCollection initDG.

<mx:ComboBox id="appCombo" dataProvider="{initDG}" labelField="appName"/>

One method I could think is to loop through the Array objects and for each object check and push unique appName entries into another Array. Is there any better solution available?

Flex :: Binding Applies Only To One ArrayCollection?

Apr 15, 2010

I have a datagrid that gets its data from a webservice.When data from the webservice is retrived it calls the following function:

private function onListReg():void
{
arrRegOld = WSAutoreg.list.lastResult as ArrayCollection;
arrReg = WSAutoreg.list.lastResult as ArrayCollection;

[code].....

The intent is when I hit a update button, it compares arrRegOld with arrReg and see if any values have changes. The problem is whenever I change values on the Datagrid it changes on both the dataProvider and on both ArrayCollections.What should I do so that the binding applies only to one ArrayCollection?

Flex :: Binding To Arraycollection Does Not Work?

May 23, 2010

I am using flex SDK 3.5. I have model.as and in it i have an ArrayCollection (name it arr_mod) which is Bindable.

From my mxml i link to this arr_mod in three places:
1) in DataGrid i set dataprovider={arr_mode} ...

2) in Button i add new item to the arr_mod this way: mx:Button .. click = "{arr_mod.addItem(new Item)}"

3) in textBox i want to add mx:TextBox text="{mySpecialCounterFunc(arr_mod)}"
note that in the Script of mxml arr_mod is Bindable as well as in the class definition in model.as

The problem is, that when clicking on button, mySpecialCounterFunc is not called! it should be called, since i use {} and this should listen to changes in arr_mod (a change that was made in the button should cause a new item to be added.. and than the listener to respond). While The DataGrid is updated correctly! By the way, if i change arr_mod to simple String or Int it works.. i.e. mySpecialCounterFunc is called Why??

Flex :: ArrayCollection - Selecting Value From ComboBox

Sep 22, 2010

My goal is to create a generic function that selects a value in a combobox according to a value. (My comoBox holds arrayCollection as dataProvider.) The difficulty is infact to get a propertyname in runtime mode.

public function selectComboByLabel(combo:ComboBox , propetryName:String, value:String):void {
var dp:ArrayCollection = combo.dataProvider as ArrayCollection;
for (var i:int=0;i<dp.length;i++) {
if (dp.getItemAt(i).propertyName==value) {
combo.selectedIndex = i;
return;
}}}

The line if (dp.getItemAt(i).propertyName==value) is of course incorrect.
It should be arther something like: dp.getItemAt(i).getPropertyByName(propertyName)
