Flex Training from the source

Hi everyone, I have the Flex 2 Training from the source book
and I have misplaced the CD that it came with. I was wondering if
somebody out there would not mind to send me a copy of the files? I
know I messed up by loosing it but I just cant find it and Im stuck
on a lesson and need the source code. Please help...... thanks in
advanced.
CR

I've progressed to Lesson 13 where the reported problem is
also happening. As i didn't keep the files for Lesson 9 this will
have to do. There are 5 files that show up as different in the SCR
folder in my code vs the COMPLETE folder of Lesson 13. All of the
differences seem to be cosmetic &/or style in nature so I have
no Idea what is going on. Note: the comment lines are just added in
this message so you can tell one file from another.

Adobe certified flex trainer

Hi all,
Moderators please move the post to correct forum if I wrongly posted it here.
I am from chennai, India and want to be adobe certified trainer. Unfortunately I dont find any ctt+ training center here in chennai. I dont own any microsoft certification so I am not able to go with MCT.
Being in chennai what are the other options I have to be a certified trainer. Or is there any ctt+ training centers in chennai.
Kindly advice.
Thanks in advance

Hi Elam,
Glad to see someone interested in becoming a trainer on Flex.
I am a CompTIA CTT+ certified trainer and also my company is a CompTIA and Adobe Authorized training partner.
I can help you with both CompTIA and Flex certification which will eventually lead to you becoming a ACI.
You can get in touch with me on himanshu[at]teknopoint.in
Hope this helps,
Thanks and Regards,
Himanshu Mody

Flex: Method doesn't work when being called on parentDocument

Hi,
I wonder is anyone can look at this code and tell me why calling the removeSelectedChild works when called from the same document, but returns the following error when called from the child document/component.
"ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller."
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" >
<mx:Accordion id="myAccordion"
width="100%" height="100%"
selectedIndex="0">
<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
      public function removeSelectedChild():void {
        myAccordion.removeChild(myAccordion.selectedChild);
    ]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:headerRenderer>
    <mx:Component>
      <mx:Button click="{ parentDocument.removeSelectedChild() }" />
    </mx:Component>
</mx:headerRenderer>
<mx:HBox>
    <mx:Button click="{ removeSelectedChild() }" />
</mx:HBox>
</mx:Accordion>
</mx:Application>
Clicking on the button in the child produces the expected result, whilst clicking on the header throws an error despite the fact they both call exactly the same method.
Sorry that the example is a little contrived, this problem arose in a quite complicated view, which was using all kinds of custom components. This was the only way I could display it in a way that will be quick for you to compile and easy to focus on the real issue without background noise.
I'm pulling my hair out on this one and would really appreciate it if anyone could help.
Cheers,
Chris

What are you trying to remove?
myAccordion.removeChild(myAccordion.selectedChild);
tries to remove the container, which is the child of the Accordion. Is that what you want?
Also, I'm wondering if parentDocument.removeSelectedChild() would try to remove the Accordion.

Looking for Trainee in Flex Builder 3.0

There is a urgent need of Flex Trainer in Flex Builder 3.0
If, any you can call me to this no 0124-4277826
Or mail to [email protected]

Thanks Daniel,
I finally figured out how to send the arguments to the Webservice operation. And as you said, it looks much easier when i'm using the actionscript classes. The application is working fine when i'm Running the application right from the Flex Builder. But when i Build the relase and create a AIR application and install it. It does not seem to work. I guess i'm missing how to send in the userid and password to the webservice.
So, basically, as soon as the application is launched, i'd like for the Userid and Password Prompt to popup.
Can you please advice on how to get this working.
Thanks again,
RK.

Blog post: Compiling a C library to run in Flex/Flash

If you are stuck with getting out of the starting blocks with porting a C library using Alchemy, this might help:
http://ccgi.codegadget.plus.com/blog/2010/04/03/alchemy-c-library-1/
especially if you are getting Undefined sym: _ errors. The old forum post from danieljmitchell here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/439568?tstart=120 put me onto the right track. Hopefully it'll be useful to someone.

If you simply moved the content of the release build folder somewhere else on your local machine, you might need to set the --use-network=false compiler option.
Project - Properties - Flex Compiler
add --use-network=false to the "Additional compiler arguments:" section.
When deploying to a live server you probably have to recompile with --use-network=true.

Error In flex builder

When i try to run a project i get this error:
there is no disk in the drive please insert a disk into drive
\device\harddisk1\DR3
It has JavaW.exe as the application name.
How do i fix this?

I would try this:
continentArray = new ArrayCollection(event.result as Array);
And if that does not work then ensure event.result is not just a string.

Stuck on Compiler Error in Flex Builder

Greetings all.
I have my first Flex app calling a Java backend, and the connection works fine. I have a method "getContinents()" in Java, which returns a List of Continent objects. Each Continent object has two variables, "name" and "description". "Name" is a two-letter abbreviation (NA for North America, SA for South America, etc; you get the idea) and "Description" is the spelled-out description (like "North America"). I have an ActionScript class which mimics the Java class.
In Flex, I have a DataGrid which has, as its dataProvider, a Bindable ArrayCollection. When the data comes back into Flex, I put it in the aforementioned Bindable ArrayCollection. That works great. The list of Continents appears in the DataGrid, as expected.
The issue is the DropDownList. I want to see the same thing happen in the DropDownList. I want to see the Description in the DropDownList, and when one is chosen, based on the selection, I want to go back to the server to get the list of Countries in that selected Continent. But I can't get this to happen because I can't get past a compiler error on the DropDownList:
-1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type String to an unrelated type mx.collections:IList.
DropDownList is defined like this:
    <s:DropDownList x="270" y="220" id="continentDropdown" width="112">
                                    dataProvider="{continentArray}"
                                    labelField="description"
                                    valueField="name"
                                    change="continentChanged(event)">
    </s:DropDownList>
Data is returned to Flex in this result handler:
            protected function continentsRO_resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
            {    log.info("Returned in result handler") ;
                continentArray=event.result as ArrayCollection ;
When I create a ComboBox instead of a DropDownList, I get the same compiler error. When I change the ComboBox from a Spark ComboBox to an MX ComboBox, I don't get the compiler error, but the ComboBox never has any data in it.
Would anyone be able to tell me what it is that I am doing wrong here?
Thanks very much in advance!!!

continentArray = new ArrayCollection(event.result as Array);
