Does Flex or Flash islands support ALV table scrolling ?

Hello experts,
if I have a webdynpro abap ALV table, no "real" scrolling in a large list is possible. The paginator buttons as well as the "scrollbars" always trigger a roundtrip, and it takes a moment or two until the next page or line is displayed.
A "real" scrolling would be like in Excel or in other web pages where you can quickly roll through a list, by using a scrollbar or the mouse scrolling wheel.
Does anyone know if this will be supported by Flash islands (in EhP1 maybe?) ?
Thank you
Johannes

I think you're mixing things a little bit. WebDynpro ALV table is one thing...and Flash Islands is another...you can't build an ALV inside Flex, at least no so easy.
ALV is an SAP Technology and it doesn't fit on Flex which is Adobe Technology. You can use Flash Islands to embed a Flex file into WebDynpro, but that in no way affect any WebDynpro standard components.
Greetings,
Blag.

Does Flex Builder 3 have support for Soap 1.2?

Does Flex Builder 3 Data Services support Soap 1.2?
I'm using Flex Builder v3.0.205647. I'm trying to import a
Web Service (WSDL) through the Data Services...but I'm seeing that
Soap 1.2 is not supported (only Soap 1.1). Are there any plug-ins
and/or updates that would allow me to connect to a Soap 1.2
service? If not, is this planned for the future?
Thanks!

Pandu,
OBPM 10g doesn't support SOAP 1.2 binding.

Flash Island height issue

Hi,
I have two views one view (main_view) contains an viewcontainer the other view is the flash island itself.
The viewcontainer will be used to hold the flash island.
This works fine the flash island loads probably.
But when I add elements to the main_view (like input fields,...) the flash islands doesn't show up. If you want to be able to see the flash islands you have to change the height of the flash islands view to a fixed value.
This is annoying because it will create scroll bars and we don't want to have it because the flash island already contains a scroll bar.
Is it possible to use a flash island with other elements and set the flash islands view height to 100% so it adapts to the screen resolution?
Regards,
Jonas

What SAP component support Flash Island in Web Dynpro for ABAP?

Hi Experts,
What SAP component support Flash Island in Web Dynpro for ABAP? I don't find flash island control to place it in the view.
Thanks,
Duy

FlashIsland is a native UI element like table or image - not a reusable component like ALV. What release level is your system? FlashIsland is only available on NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 1 and higher.
Also the FlashIsland UI element must be a root UI element. Therefore it has be created in its own view. Right mouse click on the ROOTUIELMENT in the UI element hierarchy and choose Swap UI Element Definition.

Data connection between Java Webdynpro - Flex Flash Island

Hi,
I'm developing a Java Webdynpro with connection to a Flex Flash Island. I'm using Flex 3.2.
I've already set up the connection from WDJ to Flex, by using Events and the FlashIsland.fireEvent method, this all works fine. Now I'm trying to update a value in WDJ, to be updated in Flex. This gives the following error:
Error: Error #1023: Stack overflow occurred.

This is especially strange, cause before I had a refresh button in which I updated my entire item collection. Now, I have added this field and suddenly I get this error !
Does anybody has any idea what this could mean? Any help would be much appreciated ...
My field in Flex:
\[Bindable\]
public var opentask_updated:Number;
<mx:Text id="opentask_updated_text" text="{opentask_updated.toString()}" />
My adaptions in WDJ:
public void getInbox( ) {
       wdContext.currentInboxElement().setOpentask_updated(0);
public void wdDoInit() {
       getInbox();

Solved!
It appeared to be a "long" parameter and I was trying to put it in a "Number" parameter in Flex (because there is no long in Flex)
When I changed both to String, it worked!

Flash Islands Tutorial I - Confusion with Flex/Flash Builder Versions

Hi Guys,
i am new to the Adobe Flex/Flash Islands technology and tried to implement Tutorial I by Thomas Jung. Unfortunately i am confused by the various different versions for flex and the corresponding IDE's.
As far as i understood SAP at the moment only supports Flex versions up to version 3.3 for NetWeaver 7 EHP1. Furtheron the Adobe Charting Components (used in the Tutorial) seem to be part of the Flex Builder Professional Version only.
So i went to the Adobe Website and looked into the products and download areas. All i found was Flash Builder 4.5 Premium and the various Adobe and Open Source Flex SDK versions. I am using Flash Builder 4.5 as a trial right now. Unfortunately the Charting Components are not included.
So the question i have is whether the Charting Components (e.g. <mx:BarChart /> )are included in the non Trial version of Flash Builder 4.5 Premium or whether there is any possibility to get them as an Add-On. Or do i have to use Flex Builder 3 Professional (i found no information about this on the Adobe Website)?
Additional Hint:
I found out that when i compile the poject with Flex SDK vesion 3.6 or higher, the compiler knows the <mx:BarChart /> tag. Also in that case the view designer is working. However FlashIslands is only supported up to Flex SDK 3.3. But when i choose 3.3 the <mx:BarChart /> tag and some other related tags are unknown.
This is a really anoying issue.
Best Regards,
Dirk
Edited by: Dirk Jäckel on Jul 19, 2011 12:14 PM

HI Dirk,
wtith Web Dynpro, you can only use Flex SDK version 3.3 and downwards. You can download the SDK here [http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/DownloadFlex3]
Flash Builder ships with Flex SDK 4.5 which is not compatible with WDA flash islands.
As for the charts library, which Adobe referes to as the Data Visualization Component, it is also available as a separate download which can be unzipped into the same directory as the Flex SDK -- the library is available here [http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=flex3sdk]
I must say I am also confused, because as far I can tell data visualization component is not included in 3.3, but SAP makes no mention of this. Hopefully someone else can enlighten us on this issue?

Does Flex support 256 color displays?

Hi all,
Does Flex / Flash officially support 256-color displays? I
can't get the Image control to display any images at all when the
display is set to 256 colors.
I've tried PNG, GIF, and JPEG images with monochrome, 16
color, 256 color, and 24-bit palletes (in every combination the
formats allow). They *all* work fine if the display is set to
15-bit color or higher, but *none* of them work if the display is
set to 256 colors. I would have thought at the very least that the
Flash player could show a monochrome image on a 256 color display
Does anyone know if this is a limit in the Flex control, or
the underlying Flash controls? Could I solve it by using some Flash
control directly?
FYI, this the problem exists on both machines that I have
tested so far. Both using Windows 2000, with both IE7 and FF1.5.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Paul

OK, so this definately looks like a bug in Flex / Flash when
running on 256 color displays.
Really simple Flex projects that contain nothing but images
like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="vertical">
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:Application>
Don't show anything at all, but if you throw in a few images
via a Text control such as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="vertical">
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src ="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:Application>
Then all of the images will appear - all of those embedded
into the Text controls, as well as those embedded into the Image
controls. Note, it seems that there needs to be "significantly"
more Text controls than Image controls for this to work... but I
haven't really narrowed that down.
Also, when the Text controls are not used, it seems that
popping up Alert boxes cause the images to display correctly until
the dialog box is dismissed, and then the Image controls disappear
again!
Finally, I've found that I can get the Image control to work
reliably (so far) by itself, if I simply set the height or width to
be at least one pixel less than (not greater than) the real image.
So, for example, my image is 450 pixels wide, by 75 pixels
high. So, of the following four Image controls, only the last one
works!
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image width="450" height="75" source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image width="451" height="75" source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image width="449" height="75" source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
Once again, all of these behaviours only occur when the
display is set to a 256 color mode. Everything works as expected on
15bit+ color modes.
So, I guess I should file a bug report now?
Paul.

[Integration] Web Dynpro ABAP calling Flex in Popup (without Flash Islands)

Hi,
We do not intend to install Enhancement Package 1 in a near future.
Nevertheless, we do have requirements where Flex should be integrated with Web Dynpro ABAP (Flex components embedded or 'attached' to Web Dynpro ABAP applications).
I would like to open a popup showing a Flex component. Then, the user validates and the Web DYnpro ABAP application is resumed. All this integrated within EP 7.0.
What, according to you, would be the most effective combination :
- Suspend / Resume plug
- Server-side cookies
- iFrame (although it is deprecated)
Given what I have read so far, it seems encapsulating the .swf within a BSP application would be the best shot. Could it be possible to get rid of this 'additional layer' ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Guillaume

Web Dynpro ABAP
Define a suspend and a resume plug.
BSP
Retrieve the parameters sent by WDA either by AUTO attributes or the following code
CONSTANTS: c_resume_name          TYPE string VALUE `sap-wd-resumeurl`.
DATA: lt_tihttpnvp                TYPE tihttpnvp.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_httpnvp>       LIKE LINE OF lt_tihttpnvp,
               <fs_dept_magasin> LIKE LINE OF t_dept_magasins.
** Lecture des paramètres envoyés (par le WD ABAP)
CALL METHOD request->get_form_fields
CHANGING
    fields = lt_tihttpnvp.
READ TABLE lt_tihttpnvp ASSIGNING <fs_httpnvp> WITH KEY name = c_resume_name.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
e_url = <fs_httpnvp>-value.
ENDIF.
Flex
To return to the Web DYnpro ABAP, call a Javascript function within the BSP using this kind of code :
jsReturn = ExternalInterface.call("sendBackToSAP", selectedDepartmentsParam, orderParam);
BSP
First, to react to the user action in the Flex component, define a Javascript function in the
      function sendBackToSAP(departements, ordre) {
         fireServerEvent(departements, ordre);
         return("Done");
To fire a server-event (in order for BSP to call the WDA resume plug), I use this declaration :

       <bsp:htmlbEvent name= "fireServerEvent"
                       id = "flexAction"
                       p1 = "departements"
                       p2 = "ordre"></bsp:htmlbEvent>
Last, I simply call the URL that the WDA gives me first :
navigation->goto_page( e_url ).
If people are interested in a more detailed presentation, feel free to reply to this post, and I will write a blog about this. Nevertheless, it should become pretty obsolete with the Flash Islands release...

Does Adobe have a tech support contact for Flash on browsers?

I am looking how to escalate to Adobe Tech Support but paying 29 bux an hour for some recruited college Grad that knows to little doesnt suit me.
Bought an HP Quad and it had Win7 home so poorly installed, configured, overloaded with junk, would not backup, when it did backup and create a repair disk they wouldnt restore. HP's preloaded Win7 build both IE8 and Firefox were crashing with both BSOD and Browsers not responding and dying. Firefox never responds to anything, Microsoft indicates is an add on problem but I think it can be a flash issue although it occurs much more on Wiin7 (ANY Version) for 32 or 64 bit. I have been screwing with this for a month screaming at Microsoft and Mozilla but its a waste of time.
Microsoft forums are polluted for Win7 browser BSOD and Browser halting then crashing posts, there answer is disable add-ons. I cant surf the net without add ons so that is a stupid reponse of finger pointing, giving appearance that Msoft, Adobe and Mozilla dont communicate. No company will take ownership and drive the issue to find the root cause and where ever that cause is make them fix it, Msfot, Adobe of Firefox.   so what do ya do?
    The HP PC with horrible preload of win7 finally died and killed the build but Microsoft was equally useless in helping me repair that preloaded junk even though the OS is theres.    I BOUGHT real disks because HP couldnt support the mess - HP couldnt support chewing food let alone the mess they place on PC's with 90% asian parts with old drivers.   Eleven escaltions starting on DAY 1 of ownership of a Pavilion. Hundreds of crash dump error reports sent to Firefox has still gone unresponsed, as they employ the 5th ammendment ,method of silence without support and Msoft remove all add on is laughable but proves HP. Firefox and MicroSoft wont assume responsibilty.
This sucks as all three gloat and boast about a HIGH levels of support and awards won for support but it is all myth, and laughably a lie but I still want it repaired.   28 years in IT - retired I feel qualififed to make the observation.
I never attempted to contact Adobe but I get redirected after seeing the warning about 39 bucks an hour to answer a phone for a freeware add-on.
Does anyone know of have a escalation path to a real person at adobe or department beause tthis site redirects from the ASK Adobe Support link meaning I cant even mail a question to then, Already a BAD sign but the driver is free, but they wrote, and millions are having issue so where is there support - Why bother writing the addon if people cant even ask a question.
So does any know if they support the flash add-on without charging?     a Glitch they might want to know about is flash 10.0.0.1 shows in Win7 Event logs as version 0.0.0.1 and I have logs showing that an addon report from the DEP (Data Execution Service) saw an add-on go to a non executalbe memory region whenthe only add-on I have is flash.
Google for IE8 Browser Crash 566,500, Win7 Browser crash 1,500,000, Firefox crashing 587,000, Firefox flash crash 1,420,000, Adobe flash crash 1,820,000,   are 4,615,500 google posts found for one issue and I know there are more than that failing but Im sick of the whole thing so adobe is my last gasp.   Please respond if you have a fix or path to escalate to adobe.
Thanks.
What a mess that no company so far stands up willing to take ownership of this just to find the root cause.

I don't have a definitive answer, but I would guess you won't find a tech support service dedicated to the Flash Player since it is free software and customers apparently have problems getting tech support for the products they buy. But here are a couple of things worth considering.

Does Adobe Flex 4.6 SDK supports multithreading?

Hi,
As we are using Adobe Flex 4.6 sdk for our vmware vcenter plug-in development. we need to handle the situations like updating the data in multiple panels and portlets of a dashboard simultaneously.
So we are thinking to implement this using multithreading concept.
I am hearing flex doesn't support multi-threading, some workers constructors will give flavor of the multi-threading in flex.
It will be helpful if you provide some information about
1. Does Adobe Flex 4.6 SDK supports multithreading? If so how to implement?
2. How to use Workers in flex and what are the limitations?
Thanks and Regards,

Does Flex HttpService support https with client authentication

Hi,
We have a set of backend services available over https with client auth (cert based). We need to use mxml HttpService to access these backend services. Does HttpService support ssl with client auth?
Another question is, for Https does flex share the browser keystore and certstore or uses its own?
Thanks,
Debashis

Yes , a flex HTTPService can access services on https://. But if I remember correctly , to use an https:// service , the swf has to be served on an https. Example ,
Served from https:// ... --> Can access https:// ...
Served from https:// ... --> Can acess https:// ...
Served from https:// ... --> CANNOT access https:// ...
Served from https:// ... --> CANNOT access https:// ...
Since Flex has the browser do the connecting , the browser handles the keystore stuff , not Flex. I think.

Flash Island: Get varibles from Flex into SAP

Hello,
I am trying to get the content of a variable from an Flash Island into SAP. I am using :
FlashIsland.fireEvent(this, "add");
in order to fire the event in SAP which is working well. But I also have a variable which content I want to send to SAP. I am using:
FlashIsland.storeProperty(this , "ERGEBNIS", Ergebnis);
which is not working. "ERGEBNIS" should be the name of the context attribute in SAP, Ergebnis is the name of the variable in flex.
In my FlashIsland I have a GACEVENT called add which triggers the ACTION ADD and a GACPROPERTY called ERGEBNIS with the value FLASH.ERGEBNIS.
My problem is to get the value of Ergebnis from FLEx to SAP.
regards
stefan

The storeProperty should work. I've got an application that uses that very technique and it is working just fine. Make sure that your name usage is mapping properly. For instance here is my applicatoin:
I have a textField. I register a function for the change event of the textField. In this function I copy the current value back with the storeProperty function:
public function changeText():void
               if (!RTE.htmlText == ""){
              var l_text:String;
                    l_text = RTE.htmlText.valueOf()
                    l_text = cleanHTML(l_text);
               FlashIsland.storeProperty(this, "RichText", l_text );
Now RichText is the name of the public variable that I am exposing to the Island. It is not the name of the context attribute in WDA. Inside of WDA I have a GACProperty with a name of RichText and a value bound to a context attribute named HTML_TEXT.
If this still doesn't work for you (although it should) consider passing the value back as an event parameter instead of via the context. You can pack event parameters directly into the fireEvent function and then they can be read from within your ABAP event handler method:
     FlashIsland.fireEvent(this, "newSel", {newLS:coverflow.selectedIndex});

Receive Flash Islands data in flex-Dictionary ?

Hi@ all,
i´m developing a bigger Flash Islands application i need to loop over ~10 000 entrys to find a searched object.
It is now realized inside an ArrayCollection, like all examples i found.
Is there a faster way to solve the iterating problem?
i´m looking forward to an solution.
thx

Hi Thomas,
I'll be controversial here...
Perhaps there are cases where from a performance point of view, it is better to do handling of records client side (in the island) rather than server side.
From a design point of view, and a support view, I'd want to keep as much logic in the ABAP system as possible, easier to debug and control.
But there may well be cases where data might be going through lots of manipulation to present results for the user - data visualisation for instance - where I could easily see the benefit of having all the data client side and manipulating it there.
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this - if you've already blogged about it - sorry, you are so prolific, it's hard to keep up!
Cheers,
Chris
