Flex Forum - Redundant?

Hello All,
Based on what I understand SAP's strategic direction to UI, Visual Composer is going to be one of the major drivers from SAP to revolutionize its UI. VC supports Flex but I don't know how much of custom development is supported. With VC, EP/WebDynPro, isn't standalone Flex development kind of redundant or an over do? What does it address that other don't?
Presently, every SAP customer has 99% of them using SAP GUI. Just about now, they are given tools other than SAP GUI like EP/WebDynPro/VC etc. At this point, what's the benefit of presenting another UI (point of entry) with an already not so great adoption of earlier front-ends (like VC) ?
I would anticipate SAP to put more energies into VC/EP/DynPro/GPs/CAF instead of presenting multiple other parallel seemingly not so different technologies. This only confuses users.
Please share your opinions,
Kiran

Hello Kiran,
SAP is moving away from SAP proprietary technology to support common frameworks and standards which are already popular outside the SAP universe. The eSOA initiative is clearly a big step into that direction.
Every technology (including user interface frameworks) has pros and cons. Instead of trying to push one technology to fit all possible use cases SAP is now allowing customers to use the best UI technology for their specific needs. This includes Web Dynpro, Interactive Forms, Duet, Mobile and Flex.
Certainly Adobe Flex has established itself as the major Rich Internet Application (RIA) framework around. The Adobe Flex Book is one of fastest selling books from O'Reilly right now. There is a growing eco-system of Flex developers. By enabling integration between SAP and Flex, SAP customers can benefit from that eco-system and the engaging UI of Rich Internet Applications. I see a growing number of SAP customers who require rich and compelling user interfaces and therefore decide to build custom UI's with Adobe Flex. Some of those customers started with Visual Composer (which is a great UI modeling tool which can generate Flash UI), but then wanted to extend and customize the UI beyond the capabilities of VC. VC is a modeling tool, not a development environment. Flex Builder is targeted at developers (Eclipse based development environment) who want to create RIA and integrated them with backend applications.
I understand that the various options make it harder fro SAP developers to decide which tool to use for which purpose (certainly was easier when Deynpro was the only option), but strongly believe that end-users will benefit from the improved UI options which can be customized for specific tasks and user groups. Adobe and SAP continue to work together to integrate UI technologies (e.g. SAP is working on the integration of Flex/Flash UI into Web Dynpro).
Cheers,

  • PopUp Manager and Flex Forum PopUps

    I wanted make sure I understood what someone on the Forum told me about the PopUpManager and TitleWindow.
    My question was:  "How are the PopUps that appear when you hover over a person's image/profile on the left side of this Adobe Forum's page done?  Did you use Flex for this, or are they some type of Ajax thing?  If Flex was used was it done with the PopUp Manager based on the TitleWindow.  This is exactly the kind of PopUp I need, especially because it has a larger hit area than most PopUps which dissapear when the mouse exits the button or textarea acting as a button.
    Thanks and Sorry for the long version.

  • Need your suggestions for developing a Forum Site using Adobe Flex

    Hi ,
    I want to develop a small Forum Site where people can post questions and reply to questions .
    I want to develop the whole thing using Adobe Flex , Is there any plugin avialable for this .
    Means i mean to ask , if i go for normal J2EE there is a JForum avialable as far as i know .
    Please share your ideas .

    I meant "Don't use flex" unless you have some superb new design for a forum. I suspect that if you already had such a design, you wouldn't need to ask the question. Flex for Flex sake isn't good.
    There are already great html forum solutions out there.
    Basically, there's no point in duplicating in Flex what is already done in HTML, unless the Flex version offers a significant improvement to the user experience in some way.
    I am not aware of any Flex forum implementations and there is probably a good reason for that.
    Maybe someone else will know of one.

  • Few questions on Flex customization

    Hi,
    I've just started to customize a LiveCycle instalation for the first time. I'm using Flash Builder, and Flex 3.4.1. - LCES2 as SDK.
    I have a few questions:
    1) The process of building (with Ant) is painfully slow. It lasts over a minute (1:03) to build and publish the ".ear" file (the CPU is Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q 6600 @ 2.40GHz).
    Does in have to be like that or am I doing something wrong here? Do I have to use "Cray" os something?
    2) As I see, the Workspace version we are using is built from the 'old' Halo components, and not Spark components.
    Is it because we have an old LC version? Can it be updated to a Flex 4 version? Can it work with the same server-side? Does a newer version exist?
    3) What we NEED to use (bottom line) is TLF (Flex Layout Framework). It depends on Flash Player 10. Can it be done with Flex 3.4.1.-LCES2?

    1) The process of building (with Ant) is painfully slow. It lasts over a minute (1:03) to build and publish the ".ear" file (the CPU is Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q 6600 @ 2.40GHz).
    Does in have to be like that or am I doing something wrong here? Do I have to use "Cray" os something?
    One minute is about right. This is because ANT is packaging the compiled source into an WAR and EAR file. If you just want to work with the code and not deploy it, you can switch back and use the "Flex" builder. You will see some unresolved SWCs. Just resolve each error by point to the SWC file that is created undre the export folder for each of the api and foundation projects.  If you need more details, let me know.
    2) As I see, the Workspace version we are using is built from the 'old' Halo components, and not Spark components.
    Is it because we have an old LC version? Can it be updated to a Flex 4 version? Can it work with the same server-side? Does a newer version exist?
    No. You must use 3.4.1 from the LiveCycle ES2 DVD or the FLex SDK from the Workbench ES2 folder. 3.4.1 is the only version that has been tested and certificated with the release.
    3) What we NEED to use (bottom line) is TLF (Flex Layout Framework). It depends on Flash Player 10. Can it be done with Flex 3.4.1.-LCES2?
    Sorry, I'm not familiar with that but I can run Workspace using the latest version of Flash Player 10.2.  But if the TLF was introdced post Flex 3.4.1, then it probably won't work. Try checking the Flex forums for that answer. Again, apologies, I don't have an answer for this.
    Hope that helps!

  • Flex 4 with php error.

    Hi all, i'm connecting a flex application with database MySql, for that i'm using PHP as server side language. I followed a tutorial and created php class and tested. I'm getting the error at last step. This is what i did,
    1) create a php class name.php
    <?php
    * This sample service contains functions that illustrate typical
    * service operations. This code is for prototyping only.
    *  Authenticate users before allowing them to call these methods.
    class name {

      var $password = "";
      var $server = "localhost";
      var $port = "3306";
      var $databasename = "test";
      var $tablename = "names";
      var $connection;
      public function __construct() {
        $this->connection = mysqli_connect(
                           $this->server, 
                           $this->username, 
                           $this->password,
                           $this->databasename,
                           $this->port
        $this->throwExceptionOnError($this->connection);
      public function getNames() {
         $stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection,
              "SELECT
                  names.firstname,
                  names.middlename,
                  names.lastname
               FROM names");    
          $this->throwExceptionOnError();
          mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
          $this->throwExceptionOnError();
          $rows = array();
          mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $row->firstname, $row->middlename,
                        $row->lastname);
          while (mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)) {
              $rows[] = $row;
              $row = new stdClass();
              mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $row->firstname, $row->middlename,
                        $row->lastname);
          mysqli_stmt_free_result($stmt);
          mysqli_close($this->connection);
          return $rows;
       private function throwExceptionOnError($link = null) {
        if($link == null) {
          $link = $this->connection;
        if(mysqli_error($link)) {
          $msg = mysqli_errno($link) . ": " . mysqli_error($link);
          throw new Exception('MySQL Error - '. $msg);
    2)   Through data wizard, connect php and linked php class, it showed the methods and went to final step.
    3) Created a datagrid in flex, then dragged and droped getNames() to the datagid, then i configured return type. The datagrid then changed its fields to MySql table.
    4) Here was the problem, when i ran the application, it showed a error in this line,
    <fx:Script>

    Flex Problem
    I'm new to flex, so wondering where exactly is the problem?
    I did traced back few steps, like followed Control+click on getNames(), but it took me to actionscript file and everything seemed perfect. Since you guys have experience, hope you would throw some light on error. Thanks!

    This appears to be a Flex question. please try posting it in the Flex forums here http://forums.adobe.com/community/flex/flex_general_discussion

  • Flex 2, FDS 2.5 and CF 8: Still can't execute any kind of WebService!!!

    Hi everyone,
    I am starting to retract my brain from an intense 2 days to figure out how to use Flex with Coldfusion. I am using Coldfusion 8 Beta (this part is good, don't need help for CF itself). I am also using Flex Builder 2 (with chart but this not the topic). I installed FDS 2.5 before to install ColdFusion 8 but I think CF8 have is own FDS or something like that... anyway, it might help to mention it!
    Well, I tried HTTPService, RemoteObject, WebSer vice - NOTHING WORKS!!! Argh! Did I mention I spent 2 days? ;-)))
    Well, I start with the basic: a login form with an email (as a username) and a password to be validated. I have a CFC to do the validation and return a simple message (string): "OK' when it is valid and a custom message when it is not valid; depending if it is the password and/or the email which is not valid.
    I always got an error. Since the error is different depending of the method I use, I will explain the latest method I used in this message and try to concentrate on that method specifically! The method is WebService and here is the error:

    You can connect Flex to CF with out the use of LCDS(FDS)<br />So a better place to look for answers to you question would be the Flex forums.<br />with that said make sure your Flex project is setup to use Coldfusion Flash Remoting Services.<br /><br />Then create a remote object in your mxml file<br /><mx:RemoteObject<br />      id="serv"<br />      destination="ColdFusion"<br />      source="path.toYour.cfc" <br />      showBusyCursor="true">  <br />     <mx:method name="nameOfFunctionOnCFC" result="resultHandlerFunction(event)" fault="Alert.show(event.fault.message)"/><br />   </mx:RemoteObject><br /><br />create the handler function<br /><br />private function resultHandlerFunction(event:Event):void{<br />     //do something with your results<br />}<br /><br />then make the call to the service<br /><br />serv.nameOfFunctionOnCFC(email,password);<br /><br />that should work if your paths to your CF server is correct.<br /><br />Russ

  • Flex/Zend channel connect failed error...

    Hi guys.

    gateway.php is the rat. but I still can't figure out what's wrong. Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php is under the server root "ZendFramework/library" folder. I don't understand why my application can't find it. Thanks again!

    when i run the code above in my firefox, the videodisplay component showed in the browser,
    but the video captured by my camera didn't show in the videodisplay.
    if i change the <s:application> to <s:windowedapplication>, and run as a desktop app, everything is OK.
    then what is the problem of not showing the video captured by my camera in flex webapp?
    BTW, my flashbuidler's flex SDK is 4.5.

    hi tw
    I did my certification in SAP SD from Bangalore by month of October 2012, after that
    i received only one opportunity to attend interview at Capgemini, I cleared my
    interview but unluckily project was canceled and they haven't done any recruitment.
    your view is add on Knowledge, still I am maintaining studying, at least every day 7hrs plus, but problem is, job market or industry not have need of certified person, companies prefer to get 3 years real time exp persons more willingly than certified fresher.
    I had discussed with few of the HR managers, their reply was, in certification course there is no real time project training, it’s just about overall SAP concept, so we prefer 1 or 2 years exp people.
    So my opinion is going for SAP SD certification is useless and money wasting.
    Thanks

  • Flex databinding and webservices

    Hi everyone,
    At the beginning, i asked this on the Flex forum but they redirected me here, hoping i could find an answer.
    I have a JBoss server, getting some data for my Flex/AIR client. The client is requesting the data using SOAP webservices.
    The trouble is that it's getting really complex to handle the data so i basically want to use the databinding feature, or some pattern to make it easier.
    The goal isn't only displaying, but also editing the data so that it's automatically sent to the JBoss server (and eventually auto-refreshing on other clients).
    That's why i really want to use some kind of databinding, which totally fits: the displayed value is totally synchronized with the dataprovider variable. I would like to use that with external data (through webservice in the best case), hoping you know a way/pattern/feature to make it work.
    Thank you very much.
