Declaring a var

I am running into an issue with embedding javascript inside a servlet.
I have a method to generate a window to type in text. I want to use javascript to alert the user if they are passing in an invalid char.
here is what i have
any ideas, thanks in advance!
public Vector generateAddNoteWindow(String folder, String docId, int docNum, String servletPath) throws java.lang.Exception
     Vector data = new Vector();
     try
          data.add("<HTML><HEAD>");
          data.add("<script type='text/javascript'> ");
          data.add(" ");
          data.add(" function validate() ");
          data.add(" ");
          data.add("{");
          data.add(" x=noteform._text; ");
          data.add(" myval = x.value; ");
          data.add(" if (myval.length > 3) ");
          data.add(" {");
          data.add("var iChars = ^&[]<>; ");//i think this is my problem - is this the way to declare the var?????
          data.add("for (var i = 0; i < document.noteform._text.value.length; i++) ");
               data.add("{");
                    data.add("if (iChars.indexOf(document.noteform._text.value.charAt(i)) != -1) ");
                    data.add("{");
                         data.add("alert ('Your Annotation has special characters. \nThese are not allowed.\n Please remove them and try again.'); ");

          strError = "A error occurred in generateAddNoteWindow: " + e.toString() + System.getProperty("line.separator");
          throw new Exception(strError);
}

data.add("var iChars = ^&[]<>; ");//i think this is my problem - is this the way to declare the var?????I guess it's supposed to be a string, so use quotes for JS (single quotes save you from escaping):
data.add("var iChars = '^&[]<>'; ");May I humbly ask why all this stuff is delivered as a Vector (and not a String or written to the outgoing stream directly)?

Declaring the var in the constructer

How can someone do this without declaring the photos var before the constructer as a field?
package org.robotlegs.demos.imagegallery.models.vo
    import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
    [Bindable]
    public class Gallery
        public var photos:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection()

Hi Nikos,
By your saying that the declaring fields here out side the constructor..Do you really mean it...why because in your code you doesn't seem to have a
constructor and you are actually trying to declare the variable outside the class infact but not outside the constructor..
So you are trying to do the follwing which is wrong..:
//Here you are declaring the variable outside the class indeed which is wrong..
package org.robotlegs.demos.imagegallery.models.vo
     import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
     public var photos:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection()
     [Bindable]
     public class Gallery
Infact you should do this ....
package org.robotlegs.demos.imagegallery.models.vo
     import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
     [Bindable]
     public class Gallery
         public var photos:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection()
         //Your Constructor
         public function Gallery()
Hope you understood my point....
Thanks,

Using a var declared in a function outside that function

Hey, i am trying to do something i thought wouldn't be difficult, but looks like i'm wrong.
So this is a function that runs from the start (creationcomplete). Inside i declare a var txt (which is a string)
public function sendString(Event:FlexEvent):void
txt = "Voorbeeld van een band";
I want to call that var outside of the function. So I make it bindable. it's also the reason why i call teh var just by "txt" in the functions above.
[Bindable]
public var resultName:String;
Now, in this label i call the var txt. However, the label stays empty. Though I don't get any errors.
<s:Label x="20" y="69" fontSize="16" text="{txt}"/>
Can anyone help me fix this? I figure it should be rather easy, but still.
Also, If i call the function from a mouseclick, will i get an error then since the label asks for a var that doesn't exist yet?
Many thanks!

Local variables can be seen or use databinding. Try making an instance variable on the class/document

Question about duplicate var declaration....

the ff. code will compile and run... my question is there's a duplicate var declaration
(s var as a String type)...
Big Q: "Why the compiler didnt complain about it?"
it should be "duplicate var declaration" sort of thing......
public class Bits {
     public static void main(String args[]){
              new Bits();
    public Bits(){
         f1();
    private String s; // class var declaration, var name is "s"
    private void f1(){
       // another var declaration name "s", why the compiler dont complain about this!?!
         String s=new String("Hello World!");
         f2();
    private void f2(){
    // does this var "s" refers to the class var?
         System.out.println ("s: "+s); // the output is null
}Thanks!

Big Q: "Why the compiler didnt complain about it?"
it should be "duplicate var declaration" sort of
thing......Bcos one is a local variable and the other is an instance variable. They arent duplicates.
> private String s; // class var declaration, var name is "s"
>
private void f1(){
// another var declaration name "s", why the compiler dont complain about >this!?!
     String s=new String("Hello World!"); As i said b4, this is a local variable. Within the scope of this method, this variable hides the instance var, 's' , to access which, u will have to use this.s
>
private void f2(){
// does this var "s" refers to the class var?Yes.
System.out.println ("s: "+s); // the output is null//that's bcos u havent initialized it anywhere. Local variable have to be compulsorily initialized. Instance variables are initialized to null (if they are Object references)

Accessing class var from main timeline

Hi all! Well I've been working on this for a couple of days
now and just can't seem to get it to work right...... I'm still
getting my feet wet with as3 and like it more and more everytime I
use it.... almost.
Anyways, here's where I'm running into trouble.
Here's a dumbed down version of my project with all the other
usless drivel excluded. Basically what I'm trying to do is declare
a var and give it a value in my class. Then I want to be able to
display that value on the stage and use it in the main timeline.
Seems simple enough....
I need to be able to pass the var from the class to the main
timeline for use.... Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks.

kglad, worked like a charm in my short test file... however
in my real world flash file the class takes a short time to
actually compute the value of the variable. If I fire the trace
from the main timeline it will display NaN b/c at the moment it
fires the value of the var doesn't exist b/c it has yet to be
calculated......
I don't really know the best way to delay this... would the
best way be to somehow add an event listener to listen to the var
to see when it is assigned a value?.... I'm open to suggestions.
btw, good catch on the assignment of a string value!!
Thanks!

Very simple question about declaring variables

if a create a new ' int ' as in the code below :
static int counter;
does the value of counter automatically default to ' 0 ' ?
Does this also apply if i declare the var to be public, protected etc ( but not final )
thanks

Most languages will initialise an int to 0 if no value is specified but it is dangerous to rely on this as it is not always the case. It is therefore recommended as good practice that you always initialise your own variables to ensure they start with the value you wish and not something unexpected.

VAR syntax in business rule

<p>Hi,</p><p>I'm trying VAR command in busines rule.</p><p> </p><p>Type of local variables declared by VAR in business rule can benumeric only?</p><p>I shoud use string variables.</p>

Solution found:
Click on RuleSet which you have created.
Expand Rule inside it.
Enable Advanced mode and Tree mode and click OK.
Select Root as Task and click on insert pattren and create pattren which is based on unbounded element (here its meant as fact)
Once you create pattren , will be able access elements under unbounded element for Business rule configuration.

Unable to see custom Trace messages in Log Viewer which were defined in UDF

Hello Experts, I am not able to see my trace messages in Log Viewer. I have a small user defined fuction which takes a variable and returns its uppercase and while do that it writes few warning level trace messages in the trace file. I've tried changing the levels from Warning to Info but I still don't see anything in my Log Viewer. At this point I am not even sure if I am looking at right place. When I test my mapping in Message Mapping's Test tab it works fine and shows me all my trace messages. But when I do end to end it is not writing anything to the trace file. I've tried to use instructions from following blogs:
1. /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/04/30/xipi-personalized-logging-tracing(logging and tracing)
2. /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/05/10/xi-i-cannot-see-some-of-my-messages-in-the-sxmbmoni (logging and tracing)
3. /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/02/25/simple-java-code-in-graphical-mapping--xi(for my UDF)
but I still don't see traces in my Log Viewer. Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong here.
Thanks in advance!!

Thank you Prateek for a quick response.
Yes I was able to see my trace messages in SXMB_MONI. Below is my the info... This is great. I am still not sure why this info is not showing up in Log Veiwer's (default trace) window. Any ideas? Since this XML file contains lots of other information I was wondering how to put my trace messages into the log viewer.
Thanks!!

Problem with pl/sql table data type

hai friends,
i have one procedure it has some in parameters and one out parameter which fetches values to front end.
But the out parameter will be pl/sql table data type.
if it is ref cursor
then i declared as
var x refcursor;
exec procedure_name(1,:x);
it is ok.
but for pl/sql table data type is out parameter then what i will do in the prompt .
give me syntax and clarify my doubt.
advanced thanks...
madhava

The SQL*Plus VARIABLE statement does not support user-defined types, hence it cannot support nested tables. It can support cursors because they can be weakly typed (so we can use the one SQL*Plus VAR to hold any shape of resultset). Nested tables are strongly typed; SQL*Plus is a relatively stupid interface and cannot be expected to understand UDT.
So, it you want to use nested tables as output you'll need to code a wrapping procedure that can understand your nested table type and handle it accordingly.
Sorry.
Cheers, APC

Sharing script to create slideshow

Thanks for David Torno I have been able to hack together a basic slideshow script. There's still a lot more that could be done with it, but I wanted to share it so that others may be able to benefit.
Essentially, it asks for a folder location where your photos are stored, reads them in, creates a comp for each photo, resizing them and creating a border around them, adds all of the photo comps to a master comp, then sequences them, adds in some fades and slightly random placement.
Like I said, fairly basic. But quite the learning experience.
Yes, there are templates available for slideshows, but none that I found that I could just add photos to and say "Display these with a border and random placement on the screen, fading in and out." All the ones I found required replacing placeholders, or some sort of manual changes to each photo. And they were generally limited to 10 to 30 images. This script, theoretically, should be able to handle hundreds of images easily.
Next steps are to add movement to the photos (sliding across the screen as they fade in and out) and add a music track from a file (or files) selected during photo import.
Enjoy!
And thanks again to David Torno, plus anyone else who's script examples I may have borrowed ideas from.

Can't save file on iOS device with low free space available

Hi,
I was using SharedObject to save settings in my game. However, recently I discovered on one of our devices it doesn't work. I've found somewhere on this forum discussion that air can't save sharedobject when available space is lower than about 300mb (link here: Bug#3711301 - sharedobjects fail when available storage is low). On my iphone it's about 40mb, but file, which I want to save is just 2 variables.. persistenceManager doesn't work too (well i've looked at source and it's just using SharedObject). So i've decided to just write file by myself:
declarations:
public var mute:Boolean = false;
public static var fullId:String = "";
then in constructor:
flash.net.registerClassAlias("Settings", GameSettings);
load();
and finally save() and load() functions:
public function save():void
try {
log("begin save()");
var file:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("settings.txt");
var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
stream.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
var settings:GameSettings = new GameSettings();
settings.fullId = fullId;
settings.mute = mute;
stream.writeObject(settings);
stream.close();
log("end save()");
catch (error:Error) {
log("[ERROR] " + error.name + ": " + error.message + "\n" + error.getStackTrace());
public function load():void
try {
log("begin load()");
var file:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("settings.txt");
if(!file.exists){
log("settings.txt does not exist, created new one..");
save();
return;
var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
stream.open(file, FileMode.READ);
var settings:GameSettings = stream.readObject() as GameSettings;
mute = settings.mute;
fullId = settings.fullId;
log("loaded mute = " + mute);
log("loaded fullId = " + fullId);
stream.close();
log("end load()");
catch (error:Error) {
log("[ERROR] " + error.name + ": " + error.message + "\n" + error.getStackTrace());
My GameSettings class:
package
public class GameSettings
public var fullId:String;
public var mute:Boolean;
public function GameSettings()
This works on desktop, android. Works on my ipad too, which has 10gb of free space. However, like I said, it doesn't work on iphone5s with 40mb free memory.
Here's a log:
begin load()
settings.txt does not exist, created new one..
[ERROR] Error: Error #0
     at Autumn/save()
     at Autumn/load()
     at Autumn()
It's clear that AIR can't open or write to 'settings.txt' file. What can I do to solve that issue (other than making more free space on iphone)? Is there any workaround for that?

Any help please?

Can't figure out how to make this script work

Hey Folks,
Anyone here who would like to look at the following script and tell me where I made the error(s)?
I want to put this script in a Batch so that I can run it on a directory of files all with filenames like
Q-CAT 2010-01 Covers_v7bP01x.pdf and
Q-CAT 2010-01 Covers_v7bP02x.pdf
I put this script in the correct spot, but nothing happens... I tried the debugger console, and I get:
Begin Job Code
Processing File #1
State P01 detected
Batch aborted on run #1Error: NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method.
End Job Code
This is the script, it's supposed to run in Acrobat 9:
/* Q-CatCoverPagesSaveAs */
/* this script Crops CatCovers' Spreads and saves it into separate pages */
/* ©20100521 - AOP-Creatives, Willy Croezen */
// Begin Job
if ( typeof global.counter == "undefined" ) {
console.println("Begin Job Code");
global.counter = 0;
// insert beginJob code here
// Main Code to process each of the selected files
try {
global.counter++
console.println("Processing File #" + global.counter);
// insert batch code here.

Hy Folks,
This thread can be closed, as I fixed the script! It turned out that I needed to put the function definition above the body-code for the script to find it. After that it was small details.
I created a conversion variable (UnitsConv) for the margins so you can simply enter the desired dimensions in mm, instead of px, which I thought was easier.
This script now perfectly processes the files you put to it in a batch-operation (if correctly named with P01 and P02 in the filename.) and saves the resulting pages into the specified temp-directory. This time the filenames reflect the original filenames, for easy identification later, with the new pagenumbers appended to them.
For your information (and perhaps for use as the base for a custom script for yourself) I give you the final working version below.
This script will be trimmed down and become part of a larger script, or scriptset, which I will be using to automate the workflow of creating al different versions of lowres and highres catalogs that we need.
Kind regards,
Willy Croezen

How do I get this loop to give me numbers within a range?

So for a school assignment I need to get a loop to display all the numbers in a certain range. This range is input by the user with a starting number and an end number. For some reason when i put the code in all its giving me is the end number and not the numbers between the start and end. I was wondering if someone could show me what to tweak to fix it. This is the code so far...
// Add event listener
submit_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
// Declare Variables
var startInput:String;
var endInput:String;
var startNum:Number;
var endNum:Number;
// Get Start Value from Text Field
startInput=start_txt.text;
// Convert value from string to number
startNum = Number(startInput);
// Get End Value from Text Field
endInput=end_txt.text;
// Convert value from string to number
endNum = Number(endInput);
// For loop
for (var range:int = startNum; range <= endNum; range++ )
response_txt.text = "The numbers between the inputed integers are " + range + "!";
I've also include the actual program so you can see it if you want to test it..
Thanks for your help,
The Student of Flash

Being that you're a student and this is an assignment, I have to honor what I believe the intentions of the assignment are, which is for you to solve it and get it working, not for someone else to hand you the solution. But I can offer a hint...
It's not a question of slowing it down, it's a question of controlling what gets written to the output textfield when. If you did the trace you saw that it was rewriting the textfield in each loop. So just as a hint, look up the appendText() method of the TextField class.

Accessing an Array in a duplicated movie clip

I have a movie clip that has a script declaration of:
var myCGroup:Array = Array();
in the first frame.
(I've also tried var myCGroup:Array; var myCGroup:Array = new
Array(); and var myCGroup:Array = []; )
I duplicate this movie clip multiple times. I'm having
trouble targeting the variable myCGroup from elsewhere in the
timeline. Other non-array variables that are declared in the same
place are fully accessible.
The only code I've been able to write that writes to this
variable is:
eval(targetThumb).myCGroup = prodFlush[2].childNodes;
which actually takes the childnodes and creates an array with
them.
However, reading them back out from a separate function later
is impossible:
trace("colors to target =====" +
eval(masterProds[sm]).myCGroup);
returns nothing. I can read and write to other variables from
the same function using the same targeting.
(yes, materProds[sm] == targetThumb)
Also, the following code results in an undefined array:
// for(cg=0;cg<cGroupArray.length;cg++){
eval(targetThumb).myCGroup.push(cGroupArray[cg].firstChild.nodeValue);
// trace("time: " + cg + " || adding this color group " +
cGroupArray[cg].firstChild.nodeValue + " to product: "+ targetThumb
+ "===== " + eval(targetThumb).myCGroup)
Is this a bug, or a documented local vs. global variable
option that I'm unaware about regarding arrays?
Any other thoughts? I'm at my wits end.
Thanks in advance.

question[i] = questionSet.getString(i);Try:
question[i] = questionSet.getString(1);Or better still:
question[i] = questionSet.getString("QUESTION");or "ANSWER" for the anser record set.
ResultSet.getString(int) looks up the value in a column (starting at index 1) in a result set.
getString(String) looks up the value in a column by column name.

Customized Top Level Navigation iView

Hello to all
We are using a customized TLN iview. Its source code was modified to admit different URLs, and do the filtering depending of the default framework page which is using the TNL iview,
I mean, the TLN would be copied inside a proyect folder on the Portal Content, where would be a DFPage that contains a copy of TNL iview, and this copy would have a different roleFilter attribute.
Then, the TLN was modified again in order to merge roles that had the same name.
Those changes doesn't seem really important, they have just declared some vars, and each of them added one code line. The first one extended the first part of an IF condition, and the second one extended it with another condition, using OR.
The problem is that after the modifications, our TLN doesn't highlight correctly the first node when accessing or refreshing the Portal, instead of it shows a default start page that doesn't belong to any of our roles
The TLN iview has a procedure named PrintNavNodes, which is called on the event OnClick (I assume), and when we accessrefresh the page too.
The iview works well when clicking its buttons, it's just the first time it is used when the wrong page is shown, that's the problem we need to correct.
This procedure (PrintNavNodes) lodges the code changes. The only var modified is String prefix, so maybe anyone could tell me a default value to it, o a way to catch that mistake in order to show another page when the default page is to appear.
Also, I would appreciate if anyone knows about an API, andor a How to... manual, or any kind of documentation about this subject.
We have no possibility of reject the changes, so we need to find an alternative solution. Here is the code...
Thanks in advance, and regards
