Flex vs. jstl

Hi, i have a homework, that i have to make a presentation
about flex 3 and jstl, which have a context of simple beginning
guide to the users, but there is a problem that i am very very new
at web programming stuff. So i read the flex beginning guide and
examined the examples in the site. Now i am reading the jstl and
trying to learn it. Now, what my problem is, i need to make a
comparison between flex and jstl. Yes i have to make it my own, but
i am not able to see the pros and cons of each other exactly,
because i am very new as i said.
thanks in advance, waiting for your help...

When I mix JSTL 1.0 and 1.1 taglib declarations, it causes a ParseException

When I mix JSTL 1.0 and JSTL 1.1 taglib declarations, it causes a ParseException on some of my servers, but not all of them.
Here is the block of code that's giving me trouble:
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="fn" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions"%>
<c:set var="TEXTVARIABLE">|STRINGOFTEXT|</c:set>
<c:set var="OTHERTEXTVARIABLE">${fn:contains(TEXTVARIABLE, '|STRINGOFTEXT|')}</c:set>And here is the exception :
*javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: com.caucho.jsp.JspLineParseException: /WEB-INF/jsp/online/system/modules/com.MYCOMPANY.marketing/templates/common/MY_JSP_PAGE.jsp:1: tag = 'out' / attribute = 'value': An error occurred while parsing custom action attribute "value" with value "${fn:contains(TEXTVARIABLE, '|STRINGOFTEXT|')}": org.apache.taglibs.standard.lang.jstl.parser.ParseException: EL functions are not supported.*
However, everything works fine if I change the URI for the core declaration to *http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core*
So here's the really weird part: for some reason, mixing 1.0 and 1.1 taglib declarations only causes an exception on two of my servers, my staging server and my production server. It causes no problems at all on my local machine or my development server. Why is this? What could possibly be causing this difference in behavior?
The three servers are extremely similar in setup and configuration. The JSP page is being served up by OpenCMS 7, and I'm using the Caucho's Resin webserver. I understand that you don't know how my servers or CMS are set up, but really, what I'm looking for is ideas. Any ideas at all would help, this problem has been driving me absolutely batty. Even if you don't know what could be causing the problem, if you have any suggestions at all for how I could approach the problem, that would be extremely helpful. I just don't understand what could cause this difference in behavior between my servers.
For reference, here's the first part of the stack trace (there's a character limit in this forum, so unfortunately I can't post the whole thing) :
*javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: com.caucho.jsp.JspLineParseException: /WEB-INF/jsp/online/system/modules/com.MYCOMPANY.marketing/templates/common/MY_JSP_PAGE.jsp:1: tag = 'out' / attribute = 'value': An error occurred while parsing custom action attribute "value" with value "${fn:contains(TEXTVARIABLE, '|STRINGOFTEXT|')}": org.apache.taglibs.standard.lang.jstl.parser.ParseException: EL functions are not supported. at*

My simple and stupid solution: Don't mix the two :-)
You are not meant to be able to use the JSTL1.1 functions with JSTL1.0.
What version of JSTL have you got installed on your servers?
I presume it is one of JSTL1.1 or JSTL1.2?
What jar files are present? Are they all the same version on the different servers?
What version of Resin are you using?
Are there any entries in the web.xml file for JSTL (correct answer is: no. There shouldn't have to be)
Do you have any JSTL tld files sitting around your web app (again the correct answer is: no)
Deep in the source code of the JSTL 1.1 parser, is this snippet:
String allowed = System.getProperty("javax.servlet.jsp.functions.allowed");
if (allowed == null || !allowed.equalsIgnoreCase("true"))
{if (true) throw new ParseException("EL functions are not supported.");}I'm not sure what would set this property, but it might give you a lead...
My recommendation: Use JSTL1.1 rather than JSTL1.0, and don't try to mix the two.

Getting PieSeries RenderDirection to work in a Flex 3.6 project

Hi all,
I noticed Flex 4 enhanced mx.pieSeries to have a renderDirection style. I was wondering if I could re introduced this Flex4 mx component into my my 3.6 sdk in order to take advantage of the property ?
I loaded the library and saw the property accessible but compilation throws errors. Is it possible ? How ?
Best,
Loic

Thanks for the answer but Im afraid thicko here doesnt get it.
The img src is relative to the sub page, and I have tried it with an absolute address (ie. http://localhost/.....) with the same result.
If I call the sub page direct (get with browser) the image tag works. Its just if the sub page is imported with the jstl core import tag.
I've not tried a base tag. The real project always returns pages containing absolute urls... http://ourReportServer/reports?....plenty of params so dont belive relevant, please correct me if Im wrong here though.
thanks, G.

Flex application running under AIR takes a long, long time to start.

I have a flex application which runs on a desktop under AIR. The application has an assets folder with 3,500 mp3 soundclips totalling about 50MB. The problem is, the application takes around 90 seconds to load. I'm sure that AIR is scanning the application folder and doing something with the contents because if I delete the assets folder it loads in about 5 seconds. Does anyone know why AIR/Flex would do this, and why it doesn't exhibit the same problem if I run or debug in Flexbuilder on eclipse? It's making my killer app unusable!
Thanks
Paulo

Well, I've spent a bit longer looking at this now, and the problem appears to lie with my encrypted local store. The first thing that happens is for the app to read the product key from the ELS. But, it fails (for some unknown reason). So, the app seems to hang there for 90 seconds until it eventually renders the welcome screen. If I remove the assets folder it still fails to read from the ELS, but only takes a couple of seconds to start the welcome screen. This is where the scanning of the application folder seems to come into play, because if I remove the code which reads from the ELS the app starts within 2 seconds whether the asset folder is there or not.
I think the slow startup and the scanning of the assets folder are just symptoms of a different problem, i.e. a problem with the ELS. I don't have the same problem with my development environment though - it's only when I test deploy the application.
Thanks for your help on this problem EgorKDie. I think I should be able to resolve it once I can sort out why the ELS is being awkward.

Is there a way of working collaboratively on a flex project with a small project group?

Is there a way of working collaboratively on a flex project with a small project group?
I am part of a small group of developers who wish to work on a single flex project together. Is there a way to set up flex so that the project can be developed by multiple people at the same time. I have seen one thread out on the internet about working locally and then uploading to SVn but this is not an option in this case.
Any ideas.
Many thanks in advance
Dave

I would say that rushing into development without a source-control system will cost you more in the long-run. If your organisation is serious about developing software it then it needs to invest in the necesary infrastructure, so you should get that process kicked-off as soon as possible.
In the interim you could set-up a source control server on one developer's machine or commandeer a spare machine to use as a temporary source control server. Just make sure you have it backed-up regularly. Or you could use one of the online source control services; many will support private repositories for a small fee.

Error in executing a process for Flex compilation ....exceeds 32K...

Hi,
deployin my model i get the following error-message.
"Error in executing a process for Flex compilation, Error: Branch between 64935 and 97770 around line 0 exceeds 32K span. If possible, please refactor this component.
Error: Branch between 64935 and 97770 around line 0 exceeds 32K span."
Do i delete a sort-element from my model it is deployed very well. So what does this message exactly mean and how can I locate where the error occurs and how can i fix that problem because i need this sort-element to be in my model.
Thanks for your help!
Tobias

Hi Tobias,
You are receiving this error due to a current limitation in the Flex server. How you can fix this is to split the iView you are currently working on into two iViews, and embed one within the other. This will decrease the size of the current iView you are receiving the error for and eliminate this problem.
Hope this helps
Cheers,
Scott

Hi Ameya,
If its VC 7.0 then you must be using Flash Compiler.Try changing the compiler to Flash at this path
Tools->Options->Compiler->Change 'Runtime filed to Flash'.I hope this should solve your problem.

Flex launching error on Windows Vista (Windows No Disk - exception ....

Hi guys, I downloaded the flex builder from adobe, I install the application but when I'am trying to lauch my application I get the error
Windows - No Disk ... exception processing message 0xc0000013
I reinstall adobe flash and my java runtime, I still get the same error, I can create an application but I can't execute it, that's sucks!
I check on adobe in the faq for flex, they say that error occurs when you install the application from a DVD, that's not true, I downloaded from their site....
thanks
Alex

Ok guys, I found it myself, very strange!
I just change my default workspace to another one, I got the same problem then I just put back the default workspace and the problem was resolved!

Using Flex 2 for dynamic creation of a Flex 2 application at runtime

We're looking to replace our existing end-user development
environment and believe Flex 2 may be able to satisfy our
requirements. However, without spending a month trialing the
product I thought some existing user(s) could suggest (based on
personal experience) whether we'd be straining Flex 2 in expecting
it to be able to provide dynamic runtine generation and execution
of an application based on the meta-data associated with each
component. The generation of each component includes automatic form
and code generation, with end-user tailoring facilities to maintain
the meta-data (tabs, fields (visibility, location, business rules,
actions, validation etc.), display format, drill-down, work-flow
etc.), for use in the next instantiation of each conponent.

I know of at least one of our customers (not sure if I can
say which) is doing this. They use Flex to compose MXML files and
then send that to a server. The server than compiles that into a
SWF.
So it is possible, just a lot of work.

The application is taking a huge time to 'validate' each
component in the UI and each time we observe a timeout at different
UI component.
Few observations from our end:
1. The application is very straight forward and only thing
complex in it is UI layout. There are a few of complex layouts,
viewstacks and datagrids used.
2. The ‘creationPolicy' at application level has been
set to 'All' because of design. This although is not a standard
practice but this does not help us because the same application
compiled with Flex 2 used to load successfully.
If anybody has faced a similar issue and has some suggestions
please do give us pointers. Otherwise we are left with a lengthier
option of re-factoring the application so that creation policy
defaults to 'auto' and modify the application design.
Thanks in advance,

Hi All,
We are in process of migrating a working Flex 2 application
to Flex 3.
There were no compilation errors when application was
compiled with Flex 3 SDK. But when we start the application, it
throws a script timeout error:
Error: Error #1502: A script has executed for longer than the
default timeout period of 15 seconds.

Help needed in adding effects of certain HTML tags in Flex spark Richtext

I want to apply the effects of the following HTML tags/ attributes, in my HTML text rendered in Flex Spark Richtext Component.
Superscript - <sup>
Subscript - <sub>
Blockquotes - <blockquotes>
Ordered Lists - <ol><li>
Unordered List - <ul><li>
Horizontal Rule - <hr>
Direction Attribute for <p> - <p dir="rtl">Hello</p>
Background Color for <font>
I have observed that the above tags have no effect in RichText. Is this a limitation?
Any solutions, tweaks and tricks will be appreciated...
Thanks,
Mangirish
