Software Architecture: Real-Life Facade

17. December 2009 16:02

4. November 2009 11:02
It's been awhile since I've posted and most of that has been due to being incredibly busy at work... and preparing for the release of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2.  Of course, I have to get my PS3 time here and there where I can as it has become a rarity.  The work stuff has inv... [More]

Flex, loading local xml via HTTPService, and Web Services: DO NOT -use-network=false

23. July 2009 17:45
Ok this is pissing me off!  I've been getting slammed with the Error #2148: SWF file ... cannot access local resource myXml.xml. Only local-with-filesystem and trusted local SWF files may access local resources.  The "common" answer to this issue is to use the compiler opti... [More]

Grrr... trauma using nested XML as the data provider for charts or advanced data grid

18. March 2009 20:19
So I got this idea last night to use an e4x expression as the source of a chart and advanceddatagrid dataProvider. I’ve found that mostly all of the “examples” online and in all the books only look at one or(at most) two nesting levels inside of an xml document. Unfortunately, ... [More]

Binding e4x to dataProvider

18. March 2009 08:54
Let's say you have a set of redio buttons that act to filter your data collection.  It is possible to bind the dataProvider property of Flex Charts and AdvancedDataGrid controls to an e4x value.  There are still a couple little glitches working this way that I haven't quite figur... [More]
