Accessing public properties/methods of flash component

I've been searching all day trying to figure out how I can go about accessing properties decalared with in a flash component or containers base actionscript class.
I need to create a fairly complex interface within a part of a flex web app and I think it would be better to create it in flash profressional. I just cannot find any good information on how to get xmxl/flex to play nicely with swf/swc. Maybe it's justs not possible.
Any help or even a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

So I ended up answering my own question, but thought I would share how I did it since I can't seem to find any instructions or examples anywhere.
So what I wanted in the end was a swc file running within my flex app but I need to be able to pull data out of my swc for use with in flex. These are the steps I took to get there. If you read through this and feel there is a better way of achieving the end result please share.
Start out by adding a Flash Professional Container to your FLEX project (I dont know the difference between Component and Container, all I figured out is Component would blow up when I started adding classes with the Flash Professional project)
Give the Container and ID. mine is myTest
Double click and open the Container with in Flash Professional
Once in Flash Professional go to the Library tab and right click to add a new Symbol.Make it a MovieClip and name it what ever you would like and export it for Actionscript. **I have yet to add more to this but I plan on treating this as my "Stage" or base view.
Once created drag a new instance into the view. Make sure it is at 0,0 and give it a instance name. You will use this name as your accessor in FLEX
Right click on your new movie clip in the Library tab and selecet edit class. since all I wanted was a string I created a private string and its public getter method
private var _dataString:string = "Some string of data";
public function get dataString():String {
return _dataString;
Save your class and close it
Click the Done button in the .fla window to save your Flash project and return to Flash Builder.
Now with in the actionscript section of my MXML I can access the string above by myTest.appMain.dataString; appMain is the instance name of the movieclip I created in Flash Professional.
Now that I figured this out it seems so trival and shouldnt have taken me so long to figure out. I'm just surprised I couldn't find more info on the web about getting Flash components/containers to work well with in Flex/Flash Builder.
I hope this helps someone out.

Accessing public JApplet method from javascript

Hi,
I am currently trying to invoke a public method coded in a swing applet from my javascript.
As per the documentation and discussion at this site,tried to workaround by using document.AppletName.MethodName.
I am using Javaplugin 1.2.2 and an Object tag (not an applet tag)
I am getting "object not found' error on running it.
Any possible suggestions as to why its happening?

Hi,
You have to set the scriptable property to true in the object tag. I have included a sample object tag here below. Just change the applet name and applet class name. It has surely worked for me.For more details mail me : [email protected]
<OBJECT classid="clsid:E19F9330-3110-11d4-991C-005004D3B3DB" name="AppletName");

Access of undefined method/property through reference with a static type Class

I get the following error: (it's not word for word but you get the idea)
Error: Access of undefined method getStatus through reference with a static type Class.
Here's what's happening in the code. I'm trying to create a User class that is instantiated at the start of my app. I want the User class to have properties like mainStatus, with helper methods like setStatus etc. Pretty simple.
so on my HardDisk I have my flash_working folder with all my flash projects. I created my class file/package under the directory com.mypackage
package com.mypackage
    import flash.display.*;
    public class User extends Sprite
        public var mainStatus:int;
        public function User()
            trace("User Created!");
            mainStatus = 0;
        public function setStatus(status:int):void
         mainStatus = status;
    public function getStatus():int
        return mainStatus;
Ok, so far so good.
now I created a new .fla file under the root of /flash_working/. The class file is in /com/mypackage/User.as
in my .fla file I have:
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
var i = User.getStatus();
trace(i);
That's all the code I have. Could someone please explain why it's giving me that error?
If I try to access the public var mainStatus through user.mainStatus that gives a similar error saying:
Error: Access of undefined property mainStatus through reference with a static type Class.
Thanks for any help!
jef3189

the public getStatus() function that you created needs to be referred to through an instance of the class.
So:
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
var i = myUser.getStatus();
trace(i);
Also, an aside. You can create a getter/setter for status, to avoid having to do the function as such.
package com.mypackage
    import flash.display.*;
    public class User extends Sprite
        public var mainStatus:int;
        public function get status():int
            return mainStatus;
        public function set status(value:int):void
             mainStatus = value as int;
          public function User()
            trace("User Created!");
            mainStatus = 0;
And then, you can call it as:
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
trace(myUser.status);
EDIT
I just noticed that you made the variable public as well, which means you can access it without getter/setter or function.
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
trace(myUser.mainStatus);

Javascript enabling and using JS methods on TextEdit component

Hello Friends:
I am working to display data using TableView component.
In each row, one of the cell contains a group of radio
buttons and an other cell contains TextEdit component.
For an event on the group of radio buttons, the TextEdit
should flip editable to non-editable and vice-versa.
I am using the TextEdit attribute method,
setJsObjectNeeded(true)
to expose the JavaScript methods of the component.
I am using the following bits of code for accessing the
TextEdit JavaScript functionality.
var funcName = htmlb_formid+"_getHtmlbElementId";
func = window[funcName];
var text_edit_comp = eval(func(id_of_textedit));
text_edit_comp.setEnabled();
Whole thing works as planned, but it is not possible to
disable or enable the TextEdit component using the
JavaScript, as shown above.
In the portal documentation, the JavaScript object
methods were mentioned only for certain components, NOT
including TextEdit !!
If I replace TextEdit with InputField, it works perfectly
as like needed.
How to hack it to work for TextEdit ?
Thank you very much for your kind answers.
Prasad Nutalapati

I did use the suggestion. No use.
When I say,
var textedit = eval(func("<id-of-the-textedit-from-java"));
I am getting the object reference.
When I say,
var id = textedit.id;
var elem = document.getElementById(id);
I am getting the HTML name/id and object of the text edit.
Now when I use JS methods and properties,
alert("type="+elem.type);
alert("name="+elem.name);
I get them back correctly.
Then when I say,
alert("disable ?"+ document.forms[0].elements[elem.name].disabled;
I am getting answer as 'false' which is not correct. It
is initially disabled, when I defined with Java.
And subsequently, when I say,
document.forms[0].elements[elem.name].disabled = false;
It didn't affect it at all.
If I try to use the JS methods provided by Portal, like..
textedit.setEnabled();
It is giving an JS error saying that the object doesn't
have that method.

Attempted access of inaccessible method

Attempted access of inaccessible method I cant see the problem as I pass a class with a mesh property .
I am using AS3 and away3D. Everything loads fine .
Description      Resource      Path      Location      Type
1195: Attempted access of inaccessible method enemyMesh through a reference with static type ClassEnemyCube.
      public function moveForward(amt:int,models:Array):void
                   var enemyMesh2:Mesh;
                  for each (var el:ClassEnemyCube in models)
                  enemyMesh2=el.enemyMesh(); //error
calls this property
      public function get enemyMesh():Mesh
                  return model5;
            }

Syntax for accessors (getters and setters) is the same as for properties. So, you loop must be:
for each (var el:ClassEnemyCube in models)
     enemyMesh2 = el.enemyMesh;
Not - there are no parenthesis attached to enemyMesh.

How to modify a java method in Folder component

Hi,
I need to add some custom java code after a java method in Folder component (I am using UCM 10g, the java method is "buildResultSet" in service "COLLECTION_COPY_LOT").
I defined service handler as described in Bex's book. My static table is:
<@table custom_ServiceHandler@>
<tr>
<td>serviceName</td><td>handler</td><td>searchOrder</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Service</td><td>myPackage.MyClass</td><td>1</td>
</tr>
</table>
Java code is :
package myPackage
public class MyClass extends ServiceHandler {
public void buildResultSet() trows DataException,ServiceException
............. mu custom code
m_service.doCodeEx("",this);
If a change java method to addFiles and in static table Service to DocService, when i execute Checkin_new service it executes my custom code. I tried to change to loadorder, but have no success.
Pls someone to tell me how can i modify this method or any other java method in "COLLECTION_COPY_LOT" service. Do i have to make some additional settings ? What other ways to modify java methods i should try ?
I hope someone who has done someything like this to help me out.
Thanks in advance

A service handler might be the right way to run some code at the end of a service call (another way would be to make use of filters).
First, make sure your static table is merged with ServiceHandlers.
Secondary, change your custom method name into one that is not already in the service definition of COLLECTION_COPY_LOT (preferably a unique method name like collectionCopyLotLastAction that describes its purpose) and remove the following line from your code:
m_service.doCodeEx("",this);Now create a service definition for COLLECTION_COPY_LOT in your custom component based on the original COLLECTION_COPY_LOT (copy paste from the original service definition) and add you own method collectionCopyLotLastAction as the last step in the service. Play with the load order to make sure CS is using your service definition of COLLECTION_COPY_LOT instead of the original.

Fabian

ALV - access to protected method

Hello,
I have a object from class "CL_GUI_ALV_GRID" and want to change the protected attribute "EVT_DELAYED_CHANGE_SELECTION Constant Protected" with the method
 CALL METHOD alv_grid->SET_DELAY_CHANGE_SELECTION
 EXPORTING
 time = lv_delay.
How can I access this protected attribute?
Thanks in advance,
Holger

This will do what you want
Trick is to define a sub class inheriting the super class where the protected attributes and methods exist in - then you can access the protected methods and attributes.
If you do this don't forget to call the SUPER CONSTRUCTOR (of the class you are inheriting from) in your constructor method. Code example shown below.
Here I want the original and modified table of an alv grid but you can adapt this code to whatever you need.
Hope it helps.

Where is the "done" button in Flash CS4 when using Flash Builder 4's new flash component or container?

The documentation for Flash Builder 4 beta says that after opening flash from flash builder, I should click a "done" button in flash and flash should close and what I created in flash should be included as a component or container in Flash Builder. Using the Flash Builder 4 beta on Windows, when I click on the "create in flash" button on the properties panel for either the new flash component or container, Flash CS4 opens, I create something in Flash and no "done" button is present. Nor is anything present in the menus resembling a "done" option. Where is it?

Hi Jeffrey:
Still no done button. Now under commands in Flash I can convert symbols to flex components and containers and these show up in the Flash library.
Thanks:

Hi,
You may need to install FlexComponentKit.mxp to your Flash CS4 beforehand.

I apparently didn't get one. I've looked under various workspace configurations. Another thing that seems odd is that when Flash opens I get the opening panel that allows me to select the type of file and version of AS I want to use. I select new file with AS3. Any ideas on why the "done" button wouldn't be present and if the opening panel is what I should expect on opening Flash after clicking the "create in Flash" button?

Sizing a Scene7 flash component

Does anyone know how to size a flash component? I am using the BasicZoom and Flash Flyout Zoom. Both seem to have a ton of unnecessary whitespace around them. I've seen smaller examples, but I haven't been able to figure out how to size them as cq:includes
thanks

The solution I came up with was to override the component and add properties to adjust the size of the Flash canvas and the viewport.

Having problem access the EJB 3 from Web Component

Hi ,
I have an EJB 3 entity AuctionItem and a session ItemProcessor only implements the local interface IItemProcessor, then I use a servlet to access the findAll method in the ItemProcessor. I've created a Enterprise Applicaiton project to contain the ejb jar and the war file, but after I deploy the ear successfully, I couldn't access to my servlet through http://localhost:8080/AuctionWeb/AuctionServlet, it keeps giving me error like follwoing. Do you know why, your help will be very appreciated !

}

The most common reason for this failure is if your web.xml does not refer to the latest web application
.xsd :
<web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http
://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/x
ml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">
Otherwise, the web application is considered to be a J2EE 1.4 application and annotations
are not processed. If that's not the case you can also run the application through the
verifier to see if it identifies any issues.

Access to protected method is ot allowed

Hi,
there is class with a protected method. I get the message
"Access to protected method is ot allowed"
How must such methods be called if they are protected ?
Regards
sas

Erdem, please try to post in the correct forum. ABAP Objects questions belong in this forum, not general.
Second, Amit Khare is correct. The concept of Public/Protected/Private methods and attributes is not limited to ABAP Objects. It is a common concept to most object oriented programming languages. But if your read the ABAP Help on the appropriate keywords, then it is explained very clearly.

How to access a proctected method of a class

Hi All,
I have the below code where in the idents_get is a protected method of the class.so when i activate it is throwing an error, method is unkown or protected or private.
data: gv_class TYPE REF TO /tdag/cpcl_decl_sub_view_ctrl.
   create object gv_class.
    CALL METHOD gv_class->idents_get
      EXPORTING
        i_estcat       = gc_estcat6
        i_pos_wanted   = 1
      IMPORTING
        et_idents      = lt_idents
      changing
        xt_recns       = li_recn
      EXCEPTIONS
        read_failed    = 1
        others         = 2.
i know protected methods can be accessed in derived class.
I'm new to ABAP oops concepts please give me some pointers to access a protected method.
or any sample code to access protected method.
Thanks in advance,
Srilakshmi.

Hello Srilakshmi
You can access protected methods WITHIN an instance of the class or WITHIN an instance of a sub-class.
However, in your case you are calling the method from the report and, therefore, the class must be PUBLIC.

How can access every item on a HorizontalList Component

Hi,
 I would like to know how can I access every item on a HorizontalList component. What I want to do is something like this:
My HorizontalList:
<mx:HorizontalList
 bottom="0"
 backgroundAlpha="0.0"
 id="catalogoOpciones"
 columnCount="3"
 height="80"
 hideEffect="{esconderse}"
 horizontalScrollPolicy="on"
 selectable="false"
 showEffect="{mostrarse}"
 width="100%">
 <mx:itemRenderer>
 <mx:Component>
 <mx:VBox height="100%" verticalGap="0" horizontalAlign="center">
 <mx:Label id="titulo" text="{data.nombre}" textAlign="center" styleName="nombreOpcionDetallePlato" />
 <mx:ComboBox id="seleccion" dataProvider="{data.opciones}" labelField="label" labelFunction="funcionLabelComboBox" styleName="comboOpcionDetallePlato" change="dispatchEvent(new Event('cambioOpcion',true))"/>
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 public function funcionLabelComboBox(item:Object):String {
 return item.label + ", $" + item.precio;
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
 </mx:VBox>
 </mx:Component>
 </mx:itemRenderer>
 </mx:HorizontalList>
What I want to do is to show on an Alert screen the selected index in every ComboBox on the horizontallist:
for(var i:Number=0;i<horizontalListt.dataProvider.length;i++){
 var indice:Number = (horizontalListt.dataProvider.getChildAt(i) as ComboBox).selectedIndex;
 Alert.show(indice.toString());
I must add, that the horizontalList is working just fine, the only thing that's giving me problems is the access to every item in the list.
Thank you very much for your time and help.
Sebastián Toro O.

Greg, thank you for your quick response, but your answer is a little ambiguous for me. How can my dataProvider change when the user selects another index? the itemRenderer it's supposed get the information off the dataProvider to fill its ComboBoxes, but when the user selects another index, that change shouldn't have any effect on the dataProvider.
remember that the itemRenderer is:
<mx:itemRenderer>
 <mx:Component>
 <mx:VBox height="100%" verticalGap="0" horizontalAlign="center">
 <mx:Label id="titulo" text="{data.nombre}" textAlign="center" styleName="nombreOpcionDetallePlato" />
 <mx:ComboBox id="seleccion" dataProvider="{data.opciones}" labelField="label" labelFunction="funcionLabelComboBox" styleName="comboOpcionDetallePlato" change="dispatchEvent(new Event('cambioOpcion',true))"/>
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 public function funcionLabelComboBox(item:Object):String {
 return item.label + ", $" + item.precio;
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
 </mx:VBox>
 </mx:Component>
 </mx:itemRenderer>
So what I whant to access, is every Component that the itemRenderer created:
Alert.show(((catalogoOpciones.dataProvider.getItemAt(0) as VBox).getChildByName("seleccion") as ComboBox).selectedIndex.toString());
I want to get the selectedIndex of the ComboBox of the First Item that was created on the HorizontalList. I thought the last line of code would do the trick but it doesn't. Could you be more specific please?
Thanks again
Sebastián Toro O.
