Flex 2 App on Vista

Hello,
I have 2 applications that I built with Flex Builder 2 and
when they are run on a Vista Machine with IE 7 and a user types in
some text, some of the user's keystrokes are missing. Has anyone
else experienced this/have a cause/found a solution? This only
happens on the vista machine, on Windows XP captures no keystrokes
are missing. Thanks

I tested a simple app as you requested and I was NOT able to
reproduce the behavior.

How to get rid of #2038 error in a flex iphone app

I have created an flex mobile app in which I want to save a file in pdf format in an ipad/iphone (any IOS device) but while saving that file its throughing #2038 error. And another thing I don't want to save the pdf file in applicationStorageDirectory, because after saving the file I want use that pdf file. Here is my code.
var file:File = File.documentDirectory.resolvePath("indicators.pdf");
if (file.exists)
file.deleteFile(); //delete it if exists
//create a file stream to be able to write the content of the file
var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
var popUpPage:AlertPage = new AlertPage();
try
//open the file stream and set for Write
fileStream.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
//writes the bytes
fileStream.writeBytes(pdfBytes, 0, pdfBytes.length);
//close the stream
fileStream.close();
PopUpManager.addPopUp(popUpPage,this,true);
popUpPage.lblAlert.text = "indicator saved in pdf format = "+ file.nativePath;
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popUpPage);
this.visible = false;
catch(err :Error)
PopUpManager.addPopUp(popUpPage,this,true);
popUpPage.lblAlert.text = err.message + " "+ file.nativePath;
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popUpPage);

This doesn't look like a problem with Acrobat forms.

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"
                        xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" xmlns:local="*"

     </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.

         pkg: /data/local/tmp/Test2.apk
Success
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 Mobile App eats memory on device

Hi,
I have my flex mobile app that manages a lot of bitmapdata objects. Every bitmapdata is disposed after use. It's a multi-layer drawing app, and I have many SpriteVisualElements displayed on the screen. Every SpriteVisualElement contains 4 SpriteVisualElement that I use to paint different images. The problem is that on device (iPad2) the app eats a lot of RAM. It's not a memory leak problem (the memory is properly released when I return to the first view). I don't know what to do... please help me!
ps: on Flex profiler the app seems to consume 6 times less RAM

oooooh nooooo
you have to pay Apple first
and then request a certificate and provisioning file
and then try and figure out how to convert the certificate to a .p12 file
and cross your fingers and hope they will allow it in their store
and you have to own a mac, although there are some convoluted ways to get a certificate using a pc you still cant get onto the store without a mac

Flex mobile app - which data grid control to use?

Hi,
Trying to build my first Flex mobile app in FlashBuilder 4.6 and I need a grid control to display a 2 dimmensional array of 6 columns x 50 rows.
The user doesn't don't need to have any interraction with the grid except for scrolling the rows.
I was looking at using dataGrid component but adobe doesn't recommend it for mobile apps.
Is there a grid component that is recommended for mobile apps?
Thanks

Here it is.
// Show empty grid to start
private function initGrid():void
    const dataArray:Array = new Array(1);
    var values:Array = new Array(1);
    values[0] = "";
    dataArray[0] = values;
    grid.dataProvider = new ArrayCollection(dataArray);
// Build array and feed it to the grid - 50 rows x 9 columns dataGrid (grid)
protected function FillGrid():void
var rows:int = 50;
var columns:int = 9;
// rows array
const dataArray:Array = new Array(rows);
// Get rows
for(var row:int=0; row<rows; row++)
const arrLine:Array = [columns+1];
arrLine[0] = row+1;
for(var col:int=1; col<columns+1; col++)
   // columns array
   arrLine[col] = Math.floor(Math.random()*10);
dataArray[row] = arrLine;
// At this point the multi dimensional array is assembled, now we connect it to the dataGrid
grid.dataProvider = new ArrayCollection(dataArray);

Deploying a Flex iPad App wirelessly without registering a device's UIUD

Hi
Is there any information or step by step guide to building and deploying a Flex iPad app wireless, without registering the device's ID? Is this possible with Flex? We do have an iOS Developer Enterprise Program license. Every set of instructions from a Flex point of view that I have read assume that either 1) The release build will be deployed through iTunes or 2) the release build will be deployed to device who's ID are registered on the Apple dev center. Any help would be appreciated.
The problem is that when attempting to install the app on a device that is not registered on the apple site, an error occurs stating that the app was unable to download/install.

Hi Emanuele,
In your case, SUP would provide the development tools, framework and APIs to easily handle the authentication, synchronization etc. You wouldn't need to define your own synchronization mechanism, it's in the product. Now if the updates are only sent from the server to the mobile devices, this shouldn't be to difficult to handle even without SUP.
You could easily create REST Web Services using Gateway and then consume them using the mobile devices. You don't want to consume SOAP Web Services using a mobile application, trust me. You could do this using the ICF (Internet Communication Framework) to achieve this but again it would be easier with Gateway.
You don't necessarily need SUP or Gateway to create only a simple mobile application. But then if your customer is happy with their first mobile application, they'll want more. And then products such as SUP or Gateway can make the difference. These products prodvide a standard development environment, tools to manage the apps and the users etc. With multiple mobile apps connected to multiple back-ends with more and more users, you'll need a middleware to manage all this and make sure the performance is great.
Usually people don't use SUP or Gateway for their first mobile application but then they start to see the benefits of mobility and they want more. And then they start to realize the benefits of these products and they understand that a real mobile strategy has to be defined etc.
Regards,
Pierre

Flex Air Apps on Blackberry

I've had a Flex Air app on Playbook since it Adobe first supported Blackberry. But, I haven't had a client requirement for deploying to Blackberry in a long time. What is the status on Adobe's support for Blackberry? On the Air Dev Center, I see no references to Blackberry anymore???
Can I still build a cross-platform app for latest Blackberry devices (Blackberry 10, Playbook, etc.) using the standard Flex mobile components and Flash Builder 4.6?
After a brief search on Blackberry's Air page, it looks like they moved to requiring the QNX components, ANEs and a new pure AS3 SDK only. If I have to re-write code specific for Blackberry now, then it makes no sense for me to offer that to my clients. (unless they only want BB).
So, where does Adobe stand now with Flex Mobile in Flash Builder deploying to Blackberry 10 and the Playbook?
I'd appreciate if you could help bring me back up to speed.
Thanks,
Don

Absolutely, Flex works very well indeed and is fully supported on BlackBerry PlayBook and BB10 devices. The free packaging module for Flash Builder is part of the BB SDK for AIR and is supplied by RIM, not by Adobe.
With Flex you'll of course be using Adobe UI components, which look less native than the BB-supplied "pure AS3" UI components unless you skin them. But they work just fine.

How to remove Button from Flex Mobile app actionbar with AS3?

How exactly would i remove a Button from the actionBar "actionContent" in a flex mobile app?
I tried these:
    this.stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.removeChild(menu_btn);
    stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
    this.removeElement(menu_btn);
    stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
I'm not having any luck with those. Im guessing where it is located in the actioncontent isn't considered the stage. Any ideas?
    <s:actionContent>
                        <s:CalloutButton id="menu_btn" icon="@Embed('assets/images/menu/menu_btn.png')" visible="false">
                                  <s:VGroup>
                                  <s:Button id="btn_one" label="Button" />
                                  </s:VGroup>
                        </s:CalloutButton>
              </s:actionContent>
The actionContent is setup like that, I know like with most mxml stuff I could give it an ID to reference it but im not sure how how to give the action content an id number `<s:actionContent id="testID">` does not work. So how can i access this to remove it? making it invisible isn't cutting it i need to actually remove it.

Does this do what you are looking for?

Datagrid for flex mobile apps

Hello,
Since in-built Datagrid component is not optimized to be used in flex mobile apps, what is the best alternative we can go ahead with?
I have seen some of the posts which says that we can use List. But I'm still unable to find how List can be used. As we would need multiple columns, should we be using multiple Lists for each column?
Kindly let me know if any of have have got this working and how.
Appreciate your help..

Announcing: BlogRadio, a Flex 4 App - Get the Adobe Pack Now

All,
I'd like to introduce to you my Flex 4 app that I've been working on for about a year now: BlogRadio.
BlogRadio is simple: we allow anyone to *listen* to their favorite blogs. We have a Text-to-Speech engine that converts the text of RSS feeds to a natural voice. If the RSS feed contains any images, then weâ€™ll convert the images to video and stream the combined media to the user wherever they are.
We created this app using Flash Builder 4 beta, and Flash Catalyst.
We've worked out a deal with Adobe, so that anyone who downloads the AIR application by 3/31 will automatically subscribed to the "Adobe Pack" of blogs (Christophe Coenraets, James Ward, Ryan Stewart, and a whole bunch of others).
For kicks and giggles, I also made the app automatically read the latest BlogRadio tweet from twitter (which turns out to be a handy way to broadcast a quick message to everyone).
Feel free to download the app from our website, and of course submit your feedback on new features.

Thanks,
Bruce Hopkins

FDS and Tomcat : Flex Sample App - Contact Manager

http://localhost:8080/samples/dataservice/contact/contactmgr.mxml
When loading, I see the contact list load with Randy Carter
as the default.
1. Click on New
2. Fill in my First and Last Name
I get the following error messages:
Error
Unable to access UserTransaction in DataService.
I followed these directions for Tomcat for installing JOTM
and editing the conf/server.xml for Tomcat
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex:Install_Instructions
Please advise on how I can get this sample app to be able to
add new Contact details.

If you're getting the error message - "Unable to access
UserTransaction in DataService", then your transaction services is
not set up correctly. There is not enough detail in your message to
diagnosis what the issue is but this is what I would recommend and
the configuration that works for me.
(a) During development, get in the habit of running the
server in debug mode and check for errors in the server console and
logs frequently, especially when you encounter errors on the
client.
For FDS, you'll want to set debug level logging in
enterprise-services.xml. Restart the server after making changes.
(b) Double-check that JOTM is configured correctly.
These are the steps I used to get Flex running with Tomcat
5.5.17 and JOTM 2.0.10 - the latest versions.
With Tomcat, there are several different ways of configuring
the server so this is not the only way of doing things. The
directions under 'Configuring Tomcat' seems to have the most
details for all versions of Tomcat -
http://static.raibledesigns.com/downloads/howto-tomcat-jotm.html
i. drop the JOTM jars into <tomcat>/common/lib
ii. add the following line to my application configuration
file <tomcat>/conf/Catalina/localhost/samples.xml
<Context
docBase="c:/dev/flex/enterprise/apps/j2ee/samples"
privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false"
antiJARLocking="false">
<Transaction
factory="org.objectweb.jotm.UserTransactionFactory"
jotm.timeout="60"/>
</Context>
iii. restart the server for good measure, check the logs
localhost-xxxx.log and catalina-xxx.log to be sure that everything
started correctly.
(c) Verify that transactions are working correctly with this
test JSP page. Just drop the jsp page into your web application and
access from the browser. If you see an exception, go back to the
JOTM setup. If you see, 'success'. Then proceed with the contact
manager example.
<%@ page import="javax.naming.*,javax.transaction.*" %>
<%
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
UserTransaction tx =
(UserTransaction)ctx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
tx.begin();
tx.commit();
%>
success!
(d) Run the contact manager sample and try to update a
contact. If you see "Unable to access UserTransaction in
DataService", then check the server console and server logs for
errors and/or exceptions.
