Thanks for the link, I did search a little while before making the original post. I guess I wasn't searching for the right thing though.
The method I found listed in here seems to work in IE but not Firefox. It could just be a caching issue though I'm not real familiar with firefox and don't really know how to get it to forget that it's been to a page already.
I also updated the link listed above to ask about any changes in the last upgrade related to this.
This was related to caching in firefox and it worked fine after I logged out of my apex.oracle.com account and cleared the personal cache in firefox and then started over.

Dashboard appln using Flex+Java+MySQL+BlazeDS

I need to develop a Flex Dashboard application contaning Bar charts, pie charts, line charts which should display the data from MySql Database.
These charts should be refreshed every 5 minutes. I am comfortable with Java as backend instead of PHP. Do I need to use BlazeDS?
Can somebody suggest me how to develop this application or send me some sample working code?
Thanks.

For a Flex/Java/BlazeDS you can go to this blog http://coenraets.org/, there's a sample app named SalesBuilder that'll be very helpful for you I think. If you're looking for an example about the timer look at the docs what you need to do basically is add a timer setting the interval, add event listener when the timer gets the determined time and then call your services and so, then restart the timer.

Issues with Using Data Dashboard and Using Web Service

After running a system for many months it has suddenly decided to not work at all. I am using Data Dashboard to read variables on a host. I'll outline the system here to get a baseline:
I'm running LV 2012 SP1 f5.
I collect data from one Ethernet port and interfact it to another Ethernet port to form a proxy.
I use a fixed IP address from my DSL along with port forwarding/port triggering in my router for data observation and control.
So, what have I done so far?
1. Repaired my original LV 2012 SP1 and tested system.
2. Upgraded to LV 2012 SP1 f5 and tested system.
3. Ran service.msc and checked all the NI services that should be operational. Started and stopped several of them and rebooted computer.
4. Deployed all my SVs (multiple times)
5. Disconnected second Ethernet interface becasue sometimes the variables would deploy to this IP address.
6. Turned off my wireless because sometimes the variables would deploy to this IP address.
7. Checked "Web Server Configuration" "Application Web Server" for correct port number.
8. Checked "Web Services Management" and under "Deployed Web Services" there is one category: SV is marked as running. NOTE!! WebService is NOT listed and this could be a problem
I can use the following to retrieve data&colon; localhost:<port number>/sv/variable. But when I substitute my DSL IP number, I can no longer get any data.
So, what am I missing?
Thanks,
Paul.

Siana,
Thanks for your response.
I haven't touched the NI code in months. It is running on an XP laptop and I have the Windows updates turned off. McAfee is running on it and of course that updates regularily. This laptop is a dedicated machine that I only use for this function, nothing else. I haven't added or subtracted any programs for many months.
There have been no changes to the DSL from me. AT&T is constantly trying to get us to upgrade to U-Verse but we have resisted. All DSL modem and router hardware is the same.
Confusing, huh?

Performance building Tile Flex 3 and List Flex 4

Hi,
I'm writing aplication in FlashBuilder, I see that building Tile with repeaters(Flex 3) is 3-4 time faster that FB
and I don't know what I do wrong,
it is My Code in Flex 3
<mx:Tile>
                <mx:Repeater id="dayRepeater" dataProvider="{ arr }" >
                    <mx:Canvas width="78" height="38" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off" >
                          <calendar:CalRenderer dataProvider = "{ dayRepeater.currentItem as DataVO }"/>
                    </mx:Canvas>
                </mx:Repeater>
            </mx:Tile>
and inside repeater is following code
<mx:Canvas>
        <mx:Image x="0" y="0" width="78" height="38" source="{ dataProvider.renBackUrl}" scaleContent="true" maintainAspectRatio="false" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"/>
    </mx:Canvas>
    <mx:Canvas x="{dataProvider.imgIcoX}" y="{dataProvider.imgIcoY}" width="24" height="26">
        <mx:Image width="20" height="20" source="{ dataProvider.holyico}" horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"/>
    </mx:Canvas>
    <mx:Text id="renTxt" styleName="{dataProvider.txtIdFont}" x="{dataProvider.txtIdX}" y="{dataProvider.txtIdY}" text="{dataProvider.id}" width="51.5" height="34.149994" fontSize="22" textAlign="right" fontWeight="normal" color="{dataProvider.renMainTxtColor}" selectable="false"/>
    <mx:Text styleName="{dataProvider.txtNameFont}" x="{dataProvider.txtNameX}" y="{dataProvider.txtNameY}" text="{dataProvider.names}" width="100%" height="10.799999" fontSize="6" textAlign="right" color="{dataProvider.renMainTxtColor}" selectable="false"/>
    <mx:TextArea styleName="{dataProvider.txtHolyFont}" x="{dataProvider.txtHolyX}" y="{dataProvider.txtHolyY}" width="80" height="13.099998" text="{dataProvider.holy}" fontSize="7" borderStyle="none" backgroundAlpha="0.0" editable="false" cornerRadius="0" color="{dataProvider.renMainTxtColor}" textAlign="right" selectable="false"/>
In the FB4 the code looks like this
<s:List id="myList" height="100%" width="100%" x="17" y="30"
               dataProvider="{arr}"
            itemRenderer="gui.views.ProjectView.CalItemRenderer" >
        <s:layout>
            <s:TileLayout/>
        </s:layout>
    </s:List>
and renderer look.
    <mx:Canvas>
        <mx:Image x="0" y="0" width="78" height="38" source="{ dataProvider.renBackUrl}" scaleContent="true" maintainAspectRatio="false" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"/>
    </mx:Canvas>
    <mx:Canvas x="{data.imgIcoX}" y="{data.imgIcoY}" width="24" height="26">
        <mx:Image width="20" height="20" source="{ data.holyico}" horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0" verticalAlign="middle" horizontalAlign="center"/>
    </mx:Canvas>
    
    
    <s:TextArea styleName="{data.txtIdFont}"   x="{data.txtIdX}"   y="{data.txtIdY}"   text="{data.id}"    width="51.5" height="34.149994" fontSize="22" borderVisible="false" borderAlpha="0.0" textAlign="right" color="{data.renMainTxtColor}" fontWeight="normal" editable="false" selectable="false" contentBackgroundAlpha="0"/>
    <s:TextArea styleName="{data.txtNameFont}" x="{data.txtNameX}" y="{data.txtNameY}" text="{data.names}" width="100%" height="10.799999" fontSize="6" borderVisible="false" borderAlpha="0.0" textAlign="right" color="{data.renMainTxtColor}" editable="false" selectable="false" contentBackgroundAlpha="0"/>
    <s:TextArea styleName="{data.txtHolyFont}" x="{data.txtHolyX}" y="{data.txtHolyY}" text="{data.holy}" width="80"   height="13.099998" fontSize="7" borderVisible="false" borderAlpha="0.0" textAlign="right" color="{data.renMainTxtColor}" editable="false" selectable="false" contentBackgroundAlpha="0"/>
arr is ArrayCollection;
Generaly when I run aplication made witth Flex 3 - Tile is completed after 2-3 sec. In FB4 with SDK10485 - after 6-7 sec.!!!
Do you have any idea?
Thx
Chris

for info my ArrayCollectio has about 30 indexes
I found solution.
I made some test with different text Components (Fx 3 & 4)
My conclusion is.
<s:TextArea - create longer that <mx:TextArea, <s:Label
I change <s:TextArea to <mx:TextArea in the ItemRenderer. - now is OK.

I have solved this problem using Itemrenderer.

Need help on Flex plug in using with QTP

Hi, I am using Flex plug in 4.5 for QTP 11.0 to automate testing for a flex application developed using Flex builder 3.5. Application contains some charts and I need to get values from the lineseries inside chart using QTP. Does anyone knows whether Adobe Flex plug in supports my requirement?

Thanx for the information but I'm still not clear.
I read here on this link :
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Module_for_Apache_and_IIS
and it said that my Flex Data Services won't run on Apache or IIS.
Is this mean if I insist to use Flex Data Services I must move my
server from Apache to ColdFusion and change all those PHP script to
CF script? My friend tell me its no need to integrate them just use
only ColdFusion because I will use Flex Data Services.

Exit from Webdynpro abap application in portal environment

Hi,
I created one custom service in Webdynpro ABAP in ESS and also integrated in the portal environment
I need to put Exit button in every page ( OVERVIEW, EDIT, REVIEW). When user click on 'EXIT' button from any one of page , it should return back to PERSONAL INFORMATION in ESS Homepage.
I have used Exit plug in window , but i read in SAP Library Exit plugs will not work in portal environment.
Let me know which way i should proceed to acheive the Exit functionality.

HI,
Add the following code in action of exit and also add the application parameter which gets the area page from the portal.

Web Site Portal Feasibilty - Using Flex

I have been tasked with redesigning my work intranet portal.
In your opinion, is it feasible to do the whole website in
“Flex”? Is Flex more for just small applications? I was
looking at the 2Advanced Link:
http://www.2advanced.com/
website, and would like to design something similar using Flex
instead of Flash.
The website will have the usual calendar, wiki, blog, phone

What's the best way to mix AIR 14 and the Flex 3.5 SDK and use new AIR features?

I am returning to development of a popular desktop AIR app, after about 4 years of no code changes. Both AIR and Flex have actively moved forward during my coding absence, and it is time to play catch up.
When last built, the app was using Flex 3.5 and AIR 2.6.
End Goal - I want my app to look good on high density displays
I'd like to keep Flex version at 3.5, but use the newer version of AIR, to render more clearly on high density displays (Retina on OSX and hiDPI on Win8).
The pixel doubling performed by the "compatibility" modes of OSX.Retina or Win8.hiDPI make my app look pretty gross, and the customer base is starting to complain.
While I may eventually switch over to the Apache Flex SDK to bring the application design into the current state, my customer base just doesn't care right now. They like the current app, but want it to work, out-of-the-box, on high density displays.
So I need to limit my scope to changing only the AIR SDK, not the Flex SDK at this time.
Step 1 - Overlaying AIR14 SDK on Flex 3.5
I followed the official generic overlay instructions here, and that worked well enough. I named my hybrid SDK folder "3.5.0.AIR14". I have been able to recompile, run, and verify my app using the hybrid SDK. (my app is compiled and packaged from an ant script, using the Antennae framework. I had already switch SDKs a number of times over the initial course of development, so pointing my project to a new SDK was pretty simple enough.
Step 2 - Updating the app.xml descriptor
This part was also easy. I used the templates\air\descriptor-template.xml as a starting point, customizing the name, app id, and folders. Now my app descriptor is correctly based on the <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/14.0"> namespace.
Step 3 - Enabling Retina/hiDPI support - Help??
I added <requestedDisplayResolution>high</requestedDisplayResolution> to the <initialWindow> tag of the app descriptor, but that made no difference. The app compiles, installs, and runs, but pixel doubling is still occurring and the app looks gross.
I also tried setting the SWF version to 25, according to the official overlay guide. This proved to be more difficult. The official overlay guide suggests setting the -swf-version=25 compiler option, but that option is not supported by the Flex 3.5 compiler. So all I had to try was using the legacy -target-player=25 compiler option. That setting was accepted by the compiler, and it produced a SWF with byte offset 0x3 == 0x19 (25 dec), so that appears to be right.
But -target-player=25 didn't have any effect either.
Is setting the SWF version even required? Isn't the whole point of using the AIR 14 namespace in the app descriptor the way of telling the compiler "I want to use all features of the AIR 14 release". Why do I need to tell the compiler multiple times to use all the features of the SDK I'm compiling with? It just seems weird to me.
Have I missed a secret setting somewhere?
How can I tell the AIR runtime to simply run as pixel-dense as possible? When the workarounds listed below are performed, my app looks fantastic on high-density displays. But its the pixel scaling that is making everything look bad, and I desperately want to get this fixed.
Workarounds?
On Windows 8+, we are asking our users to enable the "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" checkbox on the AIR application shortcut. This works, but is a confusing setting for average users to discover. Most just give up in frustration.
On OSX, we can't even disable Retina mode on a per-application basis, its all or nothing, so that's even worse. SwitchResX will automatically switch resolutions based on the selected app, but that's a pretty clunky (and non-free) workaround too.
Any other workaround ideas are appreciated too.
Cheers,
Doug

It took me a while to figure out (without much help from Adobe, grrr!), since some internet writeups were terse and implied somehow that AIR's Retina support (setting your app descriptor's <initialWindow/requestedDisplayResolution> to high) would also work on Windows. They don't.
On OSX, the steps to disable pixel-doubling are:
update your app descriptor to AIR 14
set initialWindow/requestedDisplayResolution = high
compile with SWF version 25 or greater
vector assets, including text, will scale automatically
you'll need to replace your bitmap assets with Retina-quality bitmaps as appropriate
when running on a Retina display, you will see stage.contentsScaleFactor=2. It will be 1 for non-Retina displays.
On Windows, the pixel-doubling kicks in when you have a HiDPI scaling set to about 150% or greater (hiDPI scaling was introduced in Win7). There is no way to detect from within an AIR app when Windows is doing its HiDPI scaling. stage.contentsScaleFactor is always 1, under all configurations.
The only thing you can do for AIR apps on Windows is explicitly disable display scaling (like you have done) and update your app to manually scale all UI elements at runtime (that's really gross and hard, and it what I working on right now).
For my app, I updated our Windows installer to set the registry to disable hiDPI scaling, for all users, just for our app. Here's how you do that:
Key = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers
Name = <fullPathToYourExe>
Type = REG_SZ
Value = "~ HIDPIAWARE" (without the quotes, tilde space HIDPIAWARE)
That should be set in the full 64-bit registry, not the Wow32Node registry, even if your app is a 32-bit app (which all AIR apps are). If your installer is a 32-bit app (mine was), you may need to jump through some hoops to have it affect the 64-bit registry hive from a 32-bit process.
If you only want to change the setting for the current user (not all users), the KEY root is HKEY_CURRENT_USER instead of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
If you don't have an explicit installer for your AIR app (ie. if you are deploying from the web via a badge installer), then you're even more messed up, and you will need to tell your users to disable the scaling manually.
I know, it's a total pain. I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Doug

Problem in creating client side PDF with image using flex and AlivePD

I need a favor I am creating client side PDF with image using flex and AlivePDF for a web based application. Images have been generated on that pdf but it is creating problem for large size images as half of the image disappeared from that pdf.I am taking the image inside a canvas . How do i control my images so that they come fit on that pdf file for any image size that i take.
Thanks in advance
Atishay

I am having a similar and more serious problem. It takes a
long time to execute, but even attaching a small image balloons the
pdf to 6MB plus. After a few images it gets up to 20MB. These are
100k jpeg files being attached. The resulting PDF is too large to
email or process effectively. Does anyone know how to reduce
size/processing?

Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed

We are planning to Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed. I have tried using the AIR appliaction and it worked, But our requirement is NO INSTALL to the user machine for the silent printing. It is just from web page and silent printing to the default printer to the desktop/Laptop. Can anyone share your thoughts and experience with us. It will be very helpful..
For AIR : I tried the thread Re: AIR and PDF showing/silent printing

Hey CodeMonkey & Ross,
Did you either of you ever find a solution? I'm stuck too, it seems I can get remote printing on all these PDFs to work but it just prints a blank page since I've been using Javascript in the browser, not Adobe's (they are Engineering drawings that I do not have permission to edit so I can't just insert code into them but I need to make work instructions). I've been scouring the internet for hours now, it seems that this thread is the only relevant/useful one at this point. No one else was trying to achieve this for similar reasons to mine.
Thanks guys,
Lox

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.
