Begginer Flex Apps for browser Questions:

Begginer Flex Apps for browser Questions:
To change Dim in Flex App I must change file in address bar of browser, in other words create another page?
Usually Flex Web sites come in only one file or many [upper 10?]?
Scrolled Area in Flex how called [I mean like XHTML DIV Scrolled area?
I book Flex 4: vol. I , Tranning from the Source, from Adobe press, covered:
Scrolled Areas
email components
publish to live server
if not, then all these covered in vol.II?

to change the dimension of your flash window inside the browser you can use javascript... or you can have your flash-element in full size of the browser window and handle the resizing flash-intern, so you do not need an extra page for that. Just take a look at the HTML-Code and ask again if you are not that skilled with HTML/JavaScript.
usual you have only one SWF.
You can use the spark Scroller (see http://blog.flexexamples.com/2009/05/01/creating-a-scrolling-spark-panel-container-in-flex -gumbo/ for example)
Sorry, I don't know, but I can give you some hints:
for scrolling you can use Scroller
I don't know, what you mean by e-mail but you can use javascript to create a "mailto:"-link (see http://flexonblog.wordpress.com/2007/12/18/mailing-in-flex-using-javascript-function-mailt o/ )
the easiest way to deploy you just have to copy your swf and html-files from your flex-project to a web-server.

A Flex App in browser is a swf file or translated to Javascript

A Flex App in browser is a swf file or translated to Javascript?
Like Flash web site plugins [not whole browser window], exist and Flex plugins?
These are both swf files only without other supporting files?

A Flex app is a SWF and is not translated to Javascript. Many Flex apps do
use Javascript to handle history management and startup focus.

For iPhone also there is a version of flash player http://www.adobe.com/devnet/logged_in/abansod_iphone.html

Client flex app for livecycle es2

Hi all,
I am working on developing Flex client app for LiveCycle ES2. I need to implement authentication&authorization services in flex app. As far as I know, there is no efficient way to implement it in Flex. (At least I have tried couple of example from forums, it did not work properly at all. Once the browser is refreshed, the application gets initialized again and the session get lost...)
As far as I know, LiveCycle Workspace is a Flex app. After login to that application and once the browser is refreshed, the session state is kept. It seems session management is achieved for that application.
Is there any way to handle the same in flex client app?..
thanks in advanace

Is there no answer to my question ??? OR I am at the wrong place ??

Single apps for Teams question

Adobe is now offering a single app for teams and I very am interested.
If there is any non Adobe Staff that can answer my question I would appreciate it.
I have a CC for Teams account with only one seat. I have 304 PDF files of approved catalogue pages.
My client would like to collect pages to put in PDF Catalogues and multi-page flyers.
If I add Acrobat as a single app for teams to my account, (or more than one) Can I give it (assign) to my client but I pay for it?
And most importantly can they see and have access to all 304 I have on the CC account for Teams folders?
If there is anyone with hands on information that does not work for Adobe would you please let me know before I stick my neck out again.
D

I have my own cloud server that I can share files and folders with my clients I could NOT wait for 'soon" from Adobe.
But if I can purchase and authorize just Acrobat Pro for my clients from my team account then I don't have to buy retail copies that I give away to my clients.
I could actually save money this time.

Large Flex App... questions..

Hi,
Here are my questions....
Thanks for your feedback....
What is the largest deployment of Flex that you know of?
I need to scale Flex to 1 million users. Where does Flex
break when pushing high volume through the server?
How scalable is the Flash Player? Will it be the breaking
point for a massive user base?
Will the downloading of the swfs cause throughput to
bottleneck? What solutions for a boundary caching server could be
available...Redirect the enterprise to a server outside of the main
web servers for all swf downloads.

Scalability would depend on how you're using Flex. Flex by
itself is really just client side tech, so the number of users
doesn't matter very much. (If you mean Flex Data Services, I don't
know much about that.) If you're using a Java back end, .NET, etc.
I think it'd just scale similarly to how they normally do, although
you'd have to take into account downloads of the flash files to
client machines. (Generally a one-time deal I guess since it should
be cached for later uses.) But this could vary greatly depending on
what you're doing.
Also, while you're doing larger (generally) one
time-downloads, you also have to consider that (depending on
exactly what you're doing, and how)... with rich client technology
you don't make as many round trips to the server. With very high
numbers, depending on specifics of what your application does of
course, you might even be able to save bandwidth in the best cases.
The nice thing about rich client technology is that if done
right, they can take alot of work away from the server, so I'd
imagine they can be cheaper, fewer in number, etc. Most users have
decently powerful machines that just sit, being bored, while you're
using web browsers. Flex can take advantage of all that extra
processing power. (Of course again this entirely depends on what
you're doing.)
BTW, you don't mean 1 million concurrent users, right?
Usually concurrent user numbers would be much lower. Are you asking
for Google or something? =) (No need to answer that!)
That's my opinion if it helps any... just an opinion as I
don't have examples to provide, but I'm sure somebody does.

Adobe AIR not playing sound from swf, but Flex-app in browser does. Why?

Hi
Why won't Adobe AIR play the sound in an swf animation I've got? It plays perfectly as an Flex Application in a browser.
This works good (Animation is shown and sound is played):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:SWFLoader id="testLoader" source="niceview.swf">
</mx:SWFLoader>
</mx:Application>
This does not work: (Animation is shown BUT sound is NOT played):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" width="500" height="400">
<mx:SWFLoader id="testLoader" source="niceview.swf">
</mx:SWFLoader>
</mx:WindowedApplication>
I started out loading the swf from the filesystem, which is what I want to accomplish, but in this test the "niceview.swf" is located inside the source folder and therefore sandbox-violations should not be the issue here, right?

A little bump.
I still haven't found any solution to this.

Configuring socket policy for flex apps(with blocked port 843)?

We have built several flex-based ecommerce apps for a fortune 500 customer of ours, that for various reasons, we need to use sockets to a different domain and requires a socket policy file, but were having trouble configuring our flex apps for deployment in thier enviornment where they are blocking virtually everything except port 80 . The current documentation in in regards to socket policy files and crossdomain files in a non-standard configuration not using port 843 is not providing any useful help to us.
Here is the scenario:
Flex apps are served from domain www.a.com in to users browsers via http. The apps then make socket connections to domain www.b.com:80 where there are php scripts serving json data to the flex apps via port 80 using http(we use sockets because we need to set and read back http headers). The problem is the flex apps cannot make socket connections to the www.b.com domain without errors like below(unless we setup a socket policy server on port 843 of www.b.com, in which case everything works):
Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://www.b.com:80 (at 3 seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not cause any problems, but see http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files for an explanation.
Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://www.b.com:80 by requestor from http://www.a.com/bin-debug/DownloadManagerFlex.swf is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://www.b.com:80 by requestor from http://www.a.com.us/bin-debug/DownloadManagerFlex.swf is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
Since we cannot use port 843 for the socket policy file server, we setup the socket policy server on a different ip in the same domain: spf.b.com:80 (using the sample perl code Adobe provides), and per the docs(cited below), use Security.loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://spf.b.com:80") before we invoke "socket.connect", to supposedly tell the flash player to check there for the socket policy file. The problem, as you can see from the error log, is that the loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://spf.b.com:80") is ignored.
No matter what we do or how we set things up, we cannot get the flash player to recognize the loadPolicyFile(), it always wants to go to the port were making the socket connection on. It is unclear how to properly configure the flex app, socket policy file and crossdomain file for the above scenario. The docs allude to being able to serve the socket policy file from a different port 80 in the same domain as the socket connection were trying to make, but were having no luck with that.
->Can anyone shed some light on how to make this work or what are we missing/doing wrong? Also, if we can get this to work, are we stuck with a 3 second delay because this(very large) customer is blocking port 843?
As an aside, the documentation for all this is a bit scattered, unclear and contrdictory:
One document says:(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_07.html)
"This warning usually means one of two things: first, that you need to set up a
            socket policy file server on port 843, which is the first location that Flash
            Player checks by default; or second, that you need to provide more explicit
            guidance to Flash Player from ActionScript by calling loadPolicyFile to indicate the location
            of a socket policy file. When you call loadPolicyFile rather than allowing Flash Player to check
            locations by default, Flash Player will wait as long as necessary for a
            response from a socket policy file server, rather than timing out after 3
            seconds."
Another document says(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/socket_policy_files.html):
"If an ActionScript Security.loadPolicyFile() command exists within               the SWF file, then the Flash Player runtime checks that location. Flash Player checks               the destination of the loadPolicyFile() only after it has checked the               master policy file on port 843 for permission to acknowledge other policy               files. If the developer has not specified a loadPolicyFile() command,               then Flash Player checks the destination port of the connection."

I found the reason why the Flex application was ignoring the socket policy (crossdomain.XML). I have a policy server that listens to port 843 and submits the policy to the Flex client. My policy was getting ignored by the Flex application and I was getting the sandbox security error you were getting. The solution to this problem isto write a null byte right after the policy server sends the policy. I'm using Apache Mina that is wrtten is Java and the null byte is written as follows:
public void sessionCreated (IoSession session)
        throws Exception
        session.write(_policy); -- > policy string
        session.write("\u0000"); --> null byte
         //session.close(true); ---> No need to close the session because it is closed by the Flex client after it receives the null byte.
Now my Flex application can read and accept the policy from port 843 and I'm not getting more security violations.
Thanks for your reply,
Alberto

Enabling Browser Back Button for FLEX App

Can anyone suggest me a way to implement Browser Back Button work with Flex App which runs in every browser and works perfect bug free ???

HTTP request logger/simulator for flex app

I have a server that provides input xml data to a flex app in a browser be displayed on the screen for editing over http. Can someone suggest a way to cache and simulate this server's response? I need the flex app in the browser to work even when the server is down (for testing and UI dev). Any tools or ideas that I may be able to use?
Thx

just point your HTTPService tag to any local xml file having static data snapshot using url attribute

Example working Flex AIR app for Android?

I'm having trouble getting even the most basic AIR app working on Android. Here is the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

     <fx:Declarations>
         
     </fx:Declarations>
     <mx:Label text="Hello World"/>
</s:WindowedApplication>
It works fine running on Windows in Flash Builder, obviously it's pretty simple. Here are the commands I use to put it on a Samsung Galaxy Tab with Android 2.2.

A Test2 app icon shows up on my Galaxy Tab under Applications but when I run the app I just see a plain white screen, I don't see the words "Hello World". Any ideas? Does anyone have an example Flex AIR app that works on Android and can post the code so I can try it on my Galaxy Tab? I know AIR is installed correctly on my Galaxy because I installed an AIR app called South Park Avatar Creator that I got from the market and it works fine.
Thanks,
Ryan
P.S. Here is the Test2-app.xml from my non-working project above in case it helps. This is the default generated with a new Flex app in Flash Builder 4 using the Flex 4.1.0 AIR 2.5 SDK but I uncommented the andoid tags and set the visible tag to true.

Flex apps will not run in Browser after install

I am running IE 6 (Wintel) and have tried both installers for
the most recent Flash player -- activeX and the other standalone
one. I cannot view any Flex apps now in my browser - most notably
the derby examples. It seems to hang on a screen that has the title
"Flash Player Installation" -- like something in the apps is
sniffing for the player, not finding it, and then hanging on some
"automatic" install hook that has been built for Flex but not
completely implemented yet. That is my suspicion, but I just want
it to work -- do I need to uninstall/reboot/install again ? Any
tips would be greatly appreciated as I need to start a Flex 2
project next week. thanks.

You definatately need to run the unistaller 1st. Also make
sure that all IE browser are closed, and that nothing that could
possibly be using IE functionality (things like outlook, file
manager etc...) are not running or the uninstall may well fail.
Once this is succefully accomplished, re-install.

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
Thanks!

After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList. Changing it to List resolved the problem.
I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid. And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger. Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

Looking for an app for a blue tooth, type I want to use on my Iphone is a "jawbone" Question is out of the many available in the store which one would be the best and most reliable?

Looking for an app for blue tooth on my Iphone. Out of the many in the app store which one(s) would be the best & most reliable? Currently trying to set up for an older Jaw Bone?

You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.
