Invisible classes :o?

Well if you haven't, he's a guy (or company, i dont know really), that makes some pretty amazing XML galleries and stuff.
The thing is, he uses classes he made for his work, but I have no idea where they are. They're not in the project....they're not on my computer....but in the library the symbol is linked to a class (flashotaku:slider:etc).
When I right-click and try to edit class, I get an error message "cannot open file", which usually shows up when trying to find something that isn't there....
If I could find the class, I might be able to edit some key features of the gallery, which is really important.
To get a better understanding of what I'm talking about, download an example gallery and open any fla.
http://www.flashotaku.com/components/prdctsdwnldfldr/slideshow_deluxe.zip
It's worth downloading, and it's completely free. (check his site if you don't believe me: http://flashotaku.com/
So, does anyone know where it's stored? If there's any way to access it?

The objects in the library are not linked to the classes, they are assigned those class identifiers - the code will be inside them.

Invisible class files inside jar archives

Hi!
After developing an application with J2SE 1.4.1_05, under Windows 98, using some packages archived in jar files, I cannot launch the application with the J2RE 1.4.2_02 or J2SE 1.4.2_02 (in the same Windows 98) because the class files in the jars are not 'visible', even if the CLASSPATH is set up correctly. The only classes that work right are the unpacked ones. But it still does work in Windows 2000.
What might be wrong?

Thank you for your answer, and excuse me if my question was kind of confusing.
The issue here is that the files ARE in the jar files (without './' on the front), but in the environment (Windows 98 + J2RE 1.4.2_02) the application does not work, unless I unpack the jars and use the packages in the same manner I did during the development stage (for example, all classes of package 'myutils' in the folder 'myutils').
The weird thing is that this DOES NOT happen in the environment (Windows 2000 + J2RE 1.4.2_02)!!! Just after installing the J2RE 1.4.2_02 under Win2K, the app does work OK! That is why it seems that ONLY in the first case (Windows 98 + J2RE 1.4.2_02) the class files inside the jars seem to be 'invisible' to the environment.
As I have mentioned in my question, the app was developed in the environment (Windows 98 + J2RE 1.4.1_05), and it did still work with the jar files, so I wonder if there might be some compatibility between Windows 98 and the J2RE 1.4.2_02.
Except my own jars, the same thing does happen with the jai_core.jar file coming with JAI 1.1.2. But this does not happen when it comes about rt.jar, in ..\jre\bin!!!
All in all, the question still is: what might be wrong?

Strategy for kerning groups

Hello, Is there any strategy available to avoid that MakeOTF can`t access some kernings? makeotflib [WARNING] <FONT_X> Start of new pair positioning subtable ; some pairs may never be accessed: [t] [r r.alt] If I write the (subtable;) command I can "fix" this message but the generated code is invalid. An other option is to split every kernig group into single kernigs, but this is an enormous task and a new source of failures. Andreas

This message shows up when MakeOTF is forced to split a lookup table in two subtables in order to separate conflicting glyph class definitions.
You may remember that in class kerning, all the left side glyphs classes that are applied in a single lookup table must be mutually exclusive; that is, a glyph may not belong to more than one left side class in a single table. Same for right side classes. When you include the same glyph in different classes on the same side in your list of kern class pairs, then MakeOTF can solve the structural limitation only by breaking the lookup table in two, such that the the conflicting classes are used in different sub-tables. However, this solves only the structural problem - you still have a functional problem. In your example, the first kern pair which uses the glyph 't' on the left side will mask any subseqent kern pair that includes the glyph "t" on the same side, as all right-side glyphs NOT paired with the glyph "t" with the first subtable will be assigned kern value of zero, and applications will never proceed to see that there are additonal kern paris with "t" on the left side. This is because for any lookup-table, all the glyphs not included in any class on the left or right side are put in an invisible class, and assigned a value of zero.
What this message should say is " you made an error in building either your left side or right side classes for use in the current lookup table- please fix the class definitions so that they are mutually exclusive."
One way to imagine all this is to imagine the class pairs as a spreadsheet of all possible class pairs. Each left side class is the title of a row, and each right side class is the title of a column. A glyph can be put in only one row title, and in only one column titile. All glyphs not named in a row title get put together in a special row title. All glyphs not named in a column title get put together in a special column title. When you specify the value of a class pair, you are specifiying the value in one cell of the spreadsheet. All cells for which no values are specified are set to 0, by default. When programs look for a kern value between "t" and something else, they look through the list of left side class definitions to find the first occurrence of 't'. By definition, the spreadsheet row for "t" defines the kern pair value of "t" with all other glyphs, and the programs does not look further. As a result, any class kern pairs with "t" on the left side in subseuqent subtables will never get seen.
Using the 'subtable' keyword fixes only the structural problem - MakeOTF can then build the feature as specified - but it is still broken from the point of view of intended function.
I am curious about the secondary problem you mention. When you use the 'subtable' keyword, in what way is the generated code invalid?

The Components I create doesn't show up in my GUI

Hello. I have problem with creating a GUI in Java. Problem is as follows.
I have class CardComponent extending JComponent. In my main frame (the top-level container), I create a JPanel and add an instance of CardComponent to it. Then I add the JPanel to a Container.
However, when I run my GUI, nothing appears. The GUI frame itself is there (I setVisible(true) ). But not my CardComponent.
CardComponent, if it helps, is constructed like this (this is a rough code. Rest assured the class compiles well):
private final Image DeckFace = "deck.jpg";
private Image UniqueFace;
public CardComponent(Image x){
UniqueFace = x;
I have a DeckFace and a UniqueFace because the card ought to be flipping.
Thanks!

Class static/dynamic Vi icon invisible after clicking "Visible Items/Terminals"? Why?

I created a class in LabVIEW 2014, then added a VI for Data Member Access; Static Dispatch, & Dynamic Dispatch Template.
I'm just using the default ICON. All of these VI's have terminals connected by default to the class instance and error (In & out).
I can connect up to these VI's, but when I right click and select "Visible Items/Terminals", the VI disappears. It's still there on the screen, but I can't see it. If I turn the label on, I can then locate it.
Seems like a good way to cause some real nasty debugging problems (an invisible code segment).
What's special about the Static/Dynamic dispatch template VI's that they can be made invisible? ...and why would you want to allow this?
Note: I'm currently using a trial version of LabVIEW 2014.

Since it's the trial version of LabVIEW, you can only try to look at the VIs, but they won't let you. Nah, just kidding!
Can you share the VI you're having trouble with? Maybe the VI has no pattern set for the terminals, so it's not actually invisible it's just one big terminal.
Re-read that you have error clusters and stuff wired. I use dynamic dispatch VIs and VIs from the data member access template all the time and haven't seen this before.

Custom BitmapButton class remains invisible!!!

I 've created a class BitmapButton:
package com.myscripts{
 import flash.display.Sprite;
 import flash.events.Event;
 import flash.events.MouseEvent;
 import flash.display.Graphics;
 import flash.display.Bitmap;
 import flash.display.Loader;
 import flash.net.URLRequest;
 public class BitmapButton extends Sprite {
 private var myImage:Bitmap;
 private var _width:int = 200;
 private var _height:int = 200;
 public function BitmapButton(image:String):void {
 this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hover);
 // entry point
 var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
 imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoadComplete);
 imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(image));
 //Add useHandCursor, buttonMode, and mouseChildren if required
 this.useHandCursor = true;
 this.buttonMode = true;
 this.mouseChildren = false;
 private function imageLoadComplete(event:Event):void {
 myImage = new Bitmap(event.target.content.bitmapData.clone());
 myImage.width = _width;//button.width;
 myImage.height = _height;//button.height;
 myImage.x = 0;
 myImage.y = 0;
 this.addChild(myImage);
 this.width = _width;
 this.height = _height;
 private function hover(e:MouseEvent):void {
 this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hover);
 this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, out);
 this.alpha=0.7;
 private function out(e:MouseEvent):void {
 this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, out);
 this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hover);
 this.alpha=1;
In the main timeline, I use it like this:
stop();
import com.myscripts.BitmapButton;
var bbtnHeight:int =200;
var bbtnwidth:int =200;
// bath button
var bathButton:BitmapButton = new BitmapButton("../customimages/bath.jpg");
addChild(bathButton);
bathButton.width=bbtnHeight;
bathButton.height=bbtnHeight;
bathButton.x=350;
bathButton.y=100;
When I run it in flash IDE, it works fine.
When I run the swf through the Browser, it works fine.
When I run the html (that flash IDE automatically produces) it works fine.
When I run it in my localsite, in an iFrame:
<iframe id="iframebath" width="100%" height="700" src=<?php echo JUri::root()."images/swfs/bath.swf"; ?> ></iframe>
...it also runs fine...
BUT, when I use it with SWFobject in my (jjomla) local site it doesn't show anything.
It doesn't work!!
The same happens when I use embed code:

I think something 's wrong with my class.

Well...finally the problem was in...paths:
The swf is located at : http://localhost/joomla336/swfs
I had put (for image url) the relative path "../images/bath.jpg".
With the absolute path "http://localhost/joomla336/images/bath.jpg"; it works fine!!!
Can't I use relative paths in swf?

Local class invisible after transport to test system

Hello,
i face the following strange problem:
I have a local class within another class, and in the development system, i can access this local class via its entry in the object tree in object navigator. My class has a subnode "Local Classes" there, which also has a subnode for my specific local class.
I transported the coding to the test system and it works well there too, but for some reason i cannot see my local class in the se80. The class is apparently transported, the programm works, and if i execute my programm in debugging mode, i can even go through the code lines of the local class, but i can't find it in the se80.
Does anyone know why this happens?

Good question. Next question?

Invisible page or something like this?

Hi,
do we have something like invisible page? For example, i have
a class with many many children, and the drawing of this class take
a time. I thought that i can draw my class (and all the children)
somewhere on invisible page, and that if it ready transform this
"ready" page to the visible page, so the user can see this control
and work this it.
Is it possible?

You could use the viewstack container to accomplish what you
need. you can layout a viewstack with two children, the first one a
canvas and a label maybe that gives your users some feedback, and
another children containig your whole class, so if you have a
function or your class dispatches an event when it creation its
completed you can the change the viewstack selectedchildren to
reveal your class.

Hello all,
I am trying to run my .jar file and I get this error message.

Thank you very much!
I cant believe this little comment has been so helpful!
But yes it is:
I explain, despite my efforts to find, googled it, forums, faqs, etc...
no where it mentionned the manifest.fm file is... INSIDE the .jar!
Your comment "a zip" made me attempt to open it with winrar, and I found a manifest.fm file inside!
So far I was editing the one at the "source" of my project and rebuilding it with netbeans.
I am going to try that now.
Actually.... :( no its mentionning my main class!

Oh and I felt on your comment "dont ask us" as if I was suppose to know... i'm a beginner, I did not know that! And I tried to give you so many infos so you dont lose your time if you want to help, especially as after my own research I found many, many results for this "main class" and I tried a few solutions!

Giving a class name and href to shape

Hello there, is my first time im working whit edge i hope have some help. I created a animation, and in the end of animation there is a computer wich is suppose to be clicked and appear a pop up contact form. So i created a shape whit 0% opacity to be invisible than crea this code to link:
"window.open("http://www.google.com", "_self");"
But i have a problem, for my pop up contact form to be trigget this should have a class in my link like this:
<a class="modalbox" href="#inline">click to open</a>
so i just need to put my code linke this:
"window.open("#inline", "_self");"
But the problem is for my popupbox to be trigger i need to pass the class (modalbox) to the link, does someone have any ideia how coul i achieve it?

Here's a quote from the Java language spec:
"The hierarchical naming structure for packages is intended to be convenient for organizing related packages in a conventional manner, but has no significance in itself other than the prohibition against a package having a subpackage with the same simple name as a top level type (�7.6) declared in that package."
So your book was not quite correct, or maybe you just misremembered it (clearly you are typing from memory there). It isn't illegal for a package to have the same name as a class, as in your example. But it is illegal for a package to contain a subpackage and a class with the same name.

How to put multiple classes in a single file?

Hello,
I'd like to put mutliple classes in a single file. (This
would be useful for grouping children that are minor extensions of
parent classes or helper classes that are used by one class only).
When I tried to put two classes in one file, I got this error
message:
5006: An ActionScript file can not have more than one
externally visible definition: Notation.editField,
Notation.labelField1
This is the structure I used. Thanks in advance for your
help.

You can declare multiple classes in a single file, but only
one can be
within the package declaration. All class declarations
outside the package
are invisible to code outside the file.
package sample
public class SampleClass
class SampleClassHelper
class SampleClassHelper2

How to make a loop that changes two different movieclips from visible to invisible every second

I am writing some code that puzzles me. It may be, because I have a cold or because I've never needed to do anything like this. I want to have two movieclips one is visible and one is not. then one second passes the one that was visible is invisible and the invisible one is visible. What would be the best approach to this, besides handcoding if statements. I know there has to be a faster way and less expensive way than handcoding if statements.
I'd like to thank anyone who replies in advance .

this is how i would do it
package

          import flash.display.Sprite;
          import flash.events.TimerEvent;
          import flash.utils.Timer;

                    private var mc1:MovieClip;
                    private var mc2:MovieClip;
                    public function Main()
                              // create your mc's here

How to make a UI Element visible or invisible

Hi,
I have a dropdown and three input fields in my screen.
Depending on the value in the drop down only one or two or three input fields can be made visibile or invisible.
Kindly help me how to make a field invisible?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Shanthi

Hi Shanthi,
1. You will have to create custom Object type or subobject type depending on your requirement. Custom Object type can be created in SPRO-> Cross component -> UI Framework -> Framework definition -> define object type.
2. Go to configuration tab and create 3 different configurations of your view using different object type/subobject type. First Config will display all the three fields, second would display 2 of 3 and third config to display only one input field.
3. Go to Get_P_xxx method of your dropdown field and trigger server round trip (An event) to ensure that entire view is loaded every time you select value in dropdown.
4. Redefine DO_CONFIG_DETERMINATION method from your _IMPL class and here read values in your dropdown field. On the basis of value selected, you can trigger different configurations by using code:
me->set_config_keys( iv_object_type = <lv_object_type>
 iv_object_sub_type = <lv_subtype>
 iv_propagate_2_children = abap_true ).
Hope this helps.

Bhushan

In the BSP component workbench, is it possible to manipulate elements of a view (listbox, inputfields etc., hardcoded using htmlb tags) in the methods of view implementation class. For example, I have a inputfield which is initially invisible. I want to make it visible when a particular event is triggered. I wish to code this directly in the event handler method. Can anybody provide some pointers?

Arun,
As the UI elements (tags) do only exist during rendering phase a direct access from the view controller is not possible - especially not in the forward-oriented way from within an event handler as indicated from you in the posting.
However, it is of course possible to hard-code view layouts; for this approach you can use the BSP view corresponding to the view and code there whatever you like. BSP views can also contain code snippets to achieve dynamic effects. In your example it doesn't look like that you need code at all - you need to preserve the status (visible/ invisible) in a value attribute of a context node and use this value to bind visibility of the input field on the layout.
In CRM 2007, there are two main tag libraries (aka BSP extensions) being used:
- THTMLB (single tags, like input field, button, table, ...)
- CHTMLB (configuration tags; these are available for forms, tables and trees)
You should always use these tag libraries in the first place to assure common look and feel and avoid rendering issues.
