Flex date issue

Hi,
I am experiencing a very strange behavoiour of Flex Date object. My web service is written in .Net 3.5 and all object which I am retriving or updating have Creation Date (Date Type) in .Net.
But when I am calling .Net web service and displaying data in Flex, Flex displaying a different Date than what stored in web service. When I update my object using Flex UI, everying time update time is very different than actual update time set by .Net code.
Can any one help me solve this ?

This is the solution.
The dates were being saved in MSSQL as '2010-03-15 00:00:00', meaning at the absolute first millisecond of March 15.
When anyone west (Mountain Standard Time or Pacific Standard Time) of where the web server is being hosted (Central Time) entered dates, the date would flip back to the previous day. Doing a little date-math in your head confirms that 12:00 AM on the 15th minus one hour computes to "the day before".
I was never able to determine how to make this stop happening in Flex or Flash or any of the browsers, so I got around it programmatically by saving the date wih a hardcoded 12PM (noon) timestamp.
If any knows a better way, please share.
Cheers,

Issues with removing Flex data binding to use Air 14

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had optimal solution for replacing the Flex data binding classes in Air 14. I'm unable to merge the Flex and Air SDK together anymore so all the binding handlers need to be replaced. Has anyone else run into this issue yet? The automated binding generation and handling was the best feature of Flex and now that it's broken it creates huge issues for me.
This is for Air desktop and mobile applications. They still build just no of the event handling works.
Cheers,
Pete

I had forgotten I solved this myself last Dec. So basically from what I can tell the precompiler no longer does any [Bindable] conversions so you have to manually create the getters and setters for your model when this changes. I hope this helps anyone who may run into the same problem. There's literally no documentation on this any wheres.
i.e.
[Bindable]
public var username : String;
becomes
private var _username : String;
        [Bindable(event="propertyChange")]
        public function get username():String
            return this._serviceState;
        public function set username(value:String):void
            var oldValue:Object = this._username;
            if (oldValue !== value)
                this._username = value;
                if (this.hasEventListener("propertyChange"))
                    this.dispatchEvent(mx.events.PropertyChangeEvent.createUpdateEvent(this, "username", oldValue, value));
You also need to make sure what ever class contains this property implements IEventDispatcher and has the following functions:
IEventDispatcher implementation
private var _bindingEventDispatcher:flash.events.EventDispatcher =
new flash.events.EventDispatcher(flash.events.IEventDispatcher(this));
* @inheritDoc
public function addEventListener(type:String, listener:Function,
useCapture:Boolean = false,
priority:int = 0,
weakRef:Boolean = false):void
_bindingEventDispatcher.addEventListener(type, listener, useCapture,
priority, weakRef);
* @inheritDoc
public function dispatchEvent(event:flash.events.Event):Boolean
return _bindingEventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(event);
* @inheritDoc
public function hasEventListener(type:String):Boolean
return _bindingEventDispatcher.hasEventListener(type);
* @inheritDoc
public function removeEventListener(type:String,
listener:Function,
useCapture:Boolean = false):void
_bindingEventDispatcher.removeEventListener(type, listener, useCapture);
* @inheritDoc
public function willTrigger(type:String):Boolean
return _bindingEventDispatcher.willTrigger(type);

Flex performance issues

hi
By using an mvc architecture ,is it possible to overcome Flex performance issues...???
Thanks
Saritha S

Excuse me ? If you develop a large scale application, you had better use a MVC architectural framework (with or without dependency injection) and additional design patterns like the presentation model. Otherwise, you will end up with code complexity as you try to overcome the inevitable structural problems as the application grows and THIS will end up in performance degradation.
-          Run the profiler to identify bottlenecks and memory leaks: number of instances of a given class, execution time of methods, memory usage … E.g item renderers
-          How much data is loaded, processed and displayed at any one time can have a big impact on performance. Reduce the amount of data: paging via parameter to the service
-          Reduce the layout complexity: remove containers so nestLevel <= 4
-          Remove event listeners: addEventListener () calls with corresponding removeEventListener() calls (do not use addEventListener() with weak reference as it decreases performance)
-          Deferred instantiation of UIComponents (e.g Viewstack children) aka lazy instantiation
-          Garbage collection: check Grant Skinner’s checklist
-          Interrupted execution of complex functions (especially when looping on a large data set): the function monitors its execution time and yields (returns) when the current call exceeds a given duration (usually, that of a frame at 24 fps, which is the default Flex framerate). It is called again on the next frame and so on and so forth until processing is complete. You can use callLater() for that.
-          Lazy loading of data
-          Use more efficient code. Favour re-use of existing code in the Flex framework rather than re-writing what exists. Favour simple solutions over complex ones when possible.
-          UID getter/setter in DTOs for improved performance in sorting / filtering of Array Collections
-          Too many data bindings decrease performance. Mainly use data binding to bind views to the presentation models. Use the ChangeWatcher class or direct assignment of values when possible.
-          Limit the number of calls to setStyle(). Use style declarations in CSS when possible.

Flex Data Services tutorial error

In the "Before You Begin" section of the Flex Data Services
tutorial in "Getting Started with Flex", the first bullet is
incorrect. It text should be:
"Ensure that you have installed the Flex Data Services Beta 3
release and that you can run the applications in the samples web
application."
The installation instructions are located here:
http://www.adobe.com/go/flex2_installation
The tutorial zip file is located here:
http://www.macromedia.com/go/flex2beta1_quickstart_tutorial_zip

Hi, I found some more "issues" with these data services
tutorial.
First of working with the notes example at first I couldn't
get the two browsers to talk to eachother until I found this
comment by funk_sf on the livedocs:
quote:
after some searching, I located a link to the tutorial.zip
here:
http://www.macromedia.com/go/flex2beta1_quickstart_tutorial_zip.
i unzip'd the contents into my samples directory so that I had the
following path: C:\fds2\jrun4\servers\default\samples\tutorials
the xml file in WEB-INF for the standalone flexbuilder 2b3 is
located at C:\fds2\resources\config as mentioned in the comments on
the previous page (
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex20beta3/00000129.html)
as for creating the tutorial1.mxml file, i created a new Flex
project with the following settings (this is from memory, so
hopefully i recall all the steps right):
File->New Flex Project
How will you flex application access data? -> Flex Data
Services -> Compile application locally in Flex Builder
root folder: C:\fds2\jrun4\servers\default\samples
root url:
http://localhost:8700/samples/
I left the build paths to their defaults (ie. blank)
named the main application file: tutorial1.mxml
output folder: tutorial
output folder url: [blank]
So I followed his advice, deleted my project and made it in
the samples directory and the notes application started to work, so
all appeared good.
Until I was making the Java example and I'm now faced with
the following errors:
Severity Description Resource In Folder Location Creation
Time Id
2 Definition samples.contact:Contact could not be found.
tutorial2.mxml Tutorials line 8 6 juni 2006 16:36:25 20
Severity Description Resource In Folder Location Creation
Time Id
2 Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:
Contact. tutorial2.mxml Tutorials line 13 6 juni 2006 16:36:25 21
I'm not sure what is happening, I think it can't find the
data service files but I don't know how to make it so that it does
find those files, the manual is still a bit vague on that and when
I try to run this application it just shows a blue (flex) screen.
The code I'm using is straight from the example documentation after
tinkering around for 2 days to get this to work I thought using
original code is the best way to go.
My application tries to run from
http://localhost:8700/samples/bin/tutorial2.html
The documentation states:
Open the following URL in two browser windows:
[L=http://localhost:port/samples/tutorials/tutorial2.mxml
The screenshots in the documentation show:
Window1: /tutorial/tutorial1.mxml
Window2: /dataservice/contact/tutorial_step4.mxml
Now I'm just confused, tutorial1.mxml is my notes application
which was the previous tutorial and there was no mention of a
tutorial_step4.mxml file ?
Someone help me please with where to place these files and
why so I can understand what is happening here.
Thanks :)

Flex / Data / Create Application from Database

Hi, I had a question,
When I create an application from a Database (Flex / Data /
Create Application from Database).
Can I modify the coded to convert it into a module?
I have a main application that I would like to load the
Database as a module. I tried replacing the <mx:Application>
Tags to Module but didn't work...
Thanks.

Hi,
no. no answer as yet. Seems to be a connection issue with the
Windows 2003 Server, although all the seetings are correct.
I installed WAMP Server 2.0 locally to see if I can get the
project running locally, and it works fine. I can connect no
problem to the MySQL Database on my local PC. I might just have to
migrate everything over manually once the project is
complete.

Flex data services and data managment.

Hi!
I have a question about data services with data managment enabled in Adobe Flex Builder 4. The issue is more theoretical than practical.
When I need to remove an item from the DataProvider I use the delete method of autogenerated service, but when I need to add or update item in DataProvider, I use methods of DataProvider ArrayCollection directly (addItem ...). When I try to remove item from the DataProvider with removeAt method, no changes made to database after commit. Why and how this stuff works?
P.S. Sorry for my bad English, I use Google transltate.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did compile all the Java and it
works OK with a simple Java program. It just will not work in a
Flex application.
The java classes are:
RRA:
package blah.myPackage;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Collection;
import flex.data.DataSyncException;
import flex.data.assemblers.AbstractAssembler;
class RRA extends AbstractAssembler
public Collection fill( List fillParameters )
RRS service = new RRS();
return service.getSome();
RRS:
package blah.myPackage;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.sql.*;
import flex.EORS.*;
class RRS
public List getSome()
ArrayList list = new ArrayList();
String str = "bob";
RR rr = new RR(str);
list.add(rr);
return list;
RR:
package blah.myPackage;
class RR
private String name;
public RR() { }
public RR(String name)
this.name = name;
public String getName()
return this.name;
public void setName(String name)
this.name = name;
I started with something that retrieved data from a database
but watered it down just to try and get some kind of communication
between Flex and Java.

Data Issue

Hi All ..
           We are facing one data issue DSO. One record is worngly loaded with some project iD ( Ex record is having ID GE1234 insted of having LE4423) remaining details are same . we are loading the data furtherly to master data table from the DSO. if i try for reporting for project id LE4423 ,information not avilable because it is heaving wrong ID,it is key also.But in the Source system (CFG) side Data is correct with ID LE4423.
         In update rule we are following one to one mapping for all infoobjects.My requirement is i need to have in my DSo LE4423 . I need to overwrite the record id GE1234 with LE4423 without affecting other fields in the record.
        Shall i load till PSA with the ID LE4423 ..then if load this single record to DSO will overwrite the GE1234 by choosing other field as key field. but we are following one to one mapping in update rule.
Please help me on this. i need to hev a correct id for record.
Thanks ,
Prem.

You can use selective deletion to delete the record with Project ID = GE1234
Load the data till PSA
Load the data to DSO using selection Project ID = LE4423 in DTP from PSA.
check in further data targets also for mismatch of data
Hope it helps,

Custom report -Mb51 -EBELN,AUFNR,KDAUF & KUNNR -Data issues

Hi,
This custom report is related to material document list (MB51).
I was trying to retrieve Purchase Order(EBELN),Order number(AUFNR),Sales order(KDAUF) & Ship-to-party( KUNNR) from MSEG & MKPF.
Unfortunately
It looks like for Sales Orders, it picks up the Customer Number but no Order Number. For STOs, it looks like it picks up the STO # but no Customer #.
How to over come this?
FYI..I also tried adding fields to standard report(MB51) and it is also doing the same manner .
Am I pulling it from Wrong tables? or is it related to DATA issues?
Regards

Consistent Data Issues Even After Replacement

I don't know whether to blame the phone or the ice cream sandwich update for all the problems I have been having with my RAZR. When I first got it six months ago it was great and I loved it now after the ice cream sandwich update I dont really like it anymore. I never had any sort of issues while using it on gingerbread. Today, I have seen my phone switch constantly between 3g and 4g more times than I can count over the course of half an hour. I couldn't even get a consistent signal to watch a 3 minute youtube clip.
First off, I updated it to ICS but first wiped the phone clean including cache, etc. So it would have basically been a clean install. Now, I have certain issues. The 4g and 3g switch is terrible. On the street and in my own house I have had the same thing happen. In my house I get anywhere from 3-5 bars of 4g but it still switches over to 4 bars of 3g. I have even seen it switch from 4g to 3g when I had full bars. I have already replaced the sim cards, but I am still having these issues. It's actually happening on all 4 of my RAZRs on my family plan. I have gone through the network resets where I pull out the sim card and for 30 seconds, insert it, power on the phone, etc. I went through all 4 of them with the Rep over the phone. I have also had several instances where I did not have data but signal bars and then I didn't have absolutely anything at all. I live in a "major" city metro area, Boston, and I can't believe I am having these problems.
At first I would have gone off and blamed Verizon, but it is definitely not Verizon, it is our phones that are terrible. I can confirm this because my brother uses an ipad (4g Verizon) on a separate account and he consistently maintains 4g even though I have seen it go as low as two bars. Yes, I understand the ipad is a different device and may have a different radio, but that is exactly how our phones used to work on gingerbread. I received a replacement device and I am still having the same issues. Also, the headset speaker, not the speaker on the back, or receiver is really tinny during phone calls even with the in call volume down half way. It is really annoying and the little tone that plays after hanging up makes the speaker sound like its about to blow out. I don't know what to do if the RAZR will keep having data issues because this is absolutely ridiculous. I know i'm not entitled to anything but for $310 a month I mean come on, I just want my phone to work properly. As I am typing this now, I have witnessed my phone switch between 4g, 3g, and no signal at least 5 times and of course my brother's iPad on Verizon has kept its 4g signal.

Thanks for all the suggestions, but they just don't work at all guys. I've even tried that restore connectivity app from Motorola, but of course it didn't work. I don't like that I keep having constant switches between 3g,4g, and no signal bars. It's awful thats just what it is. I feel like I got gipped with this update promising better user experience. If the darned thing can't connect to their network, then what is Verizon doing to address these issues? Every time I try to do something "data intensive" (i.e. youtube, facebook, twitter, etc) the data signal just drops and I'm either left with gray bars and no data or no signal bars whatsoever. Also one thing that annoys me to death with this phone is that I have it sitting in my pocket after I lock the screen and I go to pull it out of my otherwise empty pocket. The screen is turned on by itself (I have the clear silicon case on it so the power button shouldn't be pressed by itself and no I don't wear skinny jeans), its got 3g and no bars, and its piping hot.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PHONE VERIZON???!!!

Master data Issue --- materials have unassigned or # values ...!!

Hello Experts,
I am facing an issue that the Customer Data is missing in a BEx Report.
Data Flow is 2LIS_13_VDITM --> DSO1 --> Merging DSO --> Cube --> Multiprovider --> Bex Report.
Exact issue is Customers in the Bex Report has unassigned to Sales Office, Sales Group, Sales District.
The only reason a customer should show up under u201Cunassignedu201D or u201C#u201D is if itu2019s improperly set up in the system.
customers are assigned with two values. one which has data and the other which has unassigned value.
I wanted to know, how do i check if the matierials are valid to have unassigned Values ?
Checked the Merging DSO and saw that there are actually values assigned values for the affected matierials.
After that checked the Cube data values are displayed except the Master Data values.
I guess..its completely related to Master data. I would like to know how can i resolve this issue.
Please reply me if you face this kind of master data issue in your expeiriance.
Thanks,
SN.

Hi,
Are Sales Office, Sales Group, Sales District are attributes of Customer?
In case they are, then the customers will be unassigned to Sales Office, Sales Group, Sales District in case the data for these attributes is loaded to the customer attributes.
and also check if the customer characteristic is properly assigned in the multiprovider.
Check if it helps.
Regards,
Joe

Verizon mades changes in the coding and now Windows Phone 7 is having data issues!!!

Starting about 3 weeks ago, I stopped receiving text messages and even worse stopped receiving calls yet alone my voicemails. I have changed not one thing to my phone, everything is exactly the way it was before the issues arised. Now I have to trick my phone to receive my data by dialing into my voicemail... And then what do you know, 30 text mesages, 12 voicemails!!!
The voicemails wont even tell you the date or time stamp (the time the voicemail was received). After numerous *228 and talking with level 2 over the holidays, I see a huge article on multiple news sites stating Verizon is having data issues... Dropped calls, loss of data, no signal while all our phone keep showing full bars and 3g. Verizon stated its only happening on there 4gLTE system and not 3G but thats a load of crap.
All one has to do is a google search of loss of text messages or voicemails on Verizon and you will see 100's up to 1000's of users like you and me all experiencing the same issues. And not just with Windows Phone 7, but with there baby Driod and iPhone as well.
What really ****** me off is that Verizon loves to play the blame game or pass the buck game. Hard Reset your phone and that will solve the problem... Yeah Right. If this was our OS and we updated a driver that changed the OS in the background I can see that being the solution. But for the 100's or 1000's of users that go to work daily, check there emails and text daily, and haven't changed one thing on the phone... THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!
Now I read an articile for someone extermely close to Microsoft stating that Verizon turned down Nokia's new 4GLTE phone because they have no faith in the operating system and I have to think that maybe behind the scenes Verizon is trying to force us off Windows Phone 7 platform with data issue behind the scene and try to get us all into the Droid Platform which they make 50% of the cash off the phone just like the iPhone...
This is a joke, and I am really starting to think about going to ATT and getting the HTC Titan or the new Nokia 900. I have already research a 3 party app that will allow you to backup and restore your phone. And just read that Microsoft just put out an ad for backup, restore and cloud backup programmers for this latest feature.
Verizon the games need to stop, Verizon you need to stand behind this Platform, Verizon you need to provide better service for all us 3G users!!!

Date Issue

Hello,
I am a little stuck on a date issue. I need to calculate something like this for a selection criteria formula:
I need to return this:
Today is CurrentDate (11/8/2011) - therefore I want to return or calculate next Sunday 11/13/2011 then add 6 days to
11/13/2011 - 11/19/2011
So, in English I'd need
> 11/8/2011 (CurrentDate), find Next Sunday's date (11/13/2011) add 6 days to next Sunday's date (11/13/2011) to get 11/19/2011

dayofweek(currentdate)
will give the the day number of the date (1 is Sunday)
You can use this to generate the dates you need.
For instance,
if dayofweek(currentdate)=2 then currentdate + 6
will give you the next Sunday's date

Sorry Ian, I guess was working on this the same time you were. I was just a little slower than you (I had to look it up in my master report of formulas)
