AIR applications logging… my own extension to Flex’s logging framework

Finally it’s time to release my little project and my first personal and public Actionscript library.
What I’m talking about? I realized a little “subframework” which goal is to extend Flex’s logging framework, in order to write log messages to files on the disk and provide a custom Flex’s UI component (which can be easy used into every AIR application) to read/filtering these log files.

Just a note: although I tested the library (windows and mac) and it works fine, this project may contains bugs or doesn’t work under some circumstances. Comments and feedback are welcome!

Handling doubleclick on Flex components

about 3 months ago - No comments

Handling a common event like a double click is not so simple as we may assume when it comes to Flex programming. In fact there are several critical aspects related to this event, first of all we have to set the attribute doubleClickEnabled to true in order to make our components double clickable, and this

Get hours, minutes and seconds from a number without maths operations

about 5 months ago - 1 comment

Today I’m gonna show you a secret ninja technique to extract hours, minutes and seconds from a number (representing an amount of seconds). In my example I will show an Actionscript code, but this can be implemented in JavaScript and maybe other languages too. So, the scenario is the following: we have a number representing

Documenting Actionscript classes which make use of AIR framework

about 1 year ago - No comments

This is just a quick post that may (I hope) help who are going to use asdoc tool to generate Actionscript documentation for AS classes which use AIR framework. Problem: You want to generate documentation for your package(s), but when you type asdoc command in the terminal you get a lot of errors such: Type

Make money with AIR applications by using Sharify

about 1 year ago - No comments

I just discovered Sharify, an interesting service which goal is to provide AIR developers the tools for create shareware (sellable) applications. It seems also very easy to use, the steps are: register to the site, create an application id, integrate the sharify library (an swf file) into the application and choose a payment method (like

Deploy and work with Flex swc library

about 1 year ago - No comments

When we need to use a series of Actionscript classes in several projects and centralize them into a single place, the best option available is to deploy our classes as an SWC library and then add it to the “library path” under Flex Builder’s “build path” panel. Deploy an swc file To obtain an SWC

ArrayCollection: filterFuntion with multiple filter functions using decorator pattern

about 1 year ago - 15 comments

I was looking for an elegant solution to implement multiple filter functions on an ArrayCollection (which provides a method filterFunction() that can be assigned dynamically in order to filter data inside the collection). The first and only valid solution I found was that one from Cristian Rotundu, he has extended ArrayCollection class providing a filterFunctions

Learning design patterns with Actionscript 3: episode 2 – Decorator pattern

about 1 year ago - 2 comments

The objective of the decorator pattern is to provide a way to add extra features and responsibilities to a class at runtime without to subclass it. The classes diagram of this pattern is composed by an interface or an abstract class which will define the supertype of the class that will be extended (decorated) by

Set DataGridColumn’s width in percentage with ease

about 1 year ago - 11 comments

I was trying to set the columns of a DataGrid to a certain percentage, but I discovered that inexplicably DataGridColumn doesn’t provide percentageWidth property nor it accepts a percentage string as width property… so I did a quick search on google and I found that is sad but true and moreover the solution I found

parseInt(): difference between Javascript and Actionscript

about 1 year ago - No comments

Today is the day of the little big discoveries. I realized that the parseInt() function, which objective is the same in both languages (Actionscript and Javascript), is a bit different between them. In Actionscript the function is based on base 10 numeration, in Javascript instead the funny thing is that it try to guess the

Extending Flex’s logging framework to write custom log files

about 1 year ago - 5 comments

In these days I played with Flex’s logging framework and I extended it to write log messages to files, both plain text .log files and dynamic HTML, CSS formatted and Javascript powered files with the ability to filter message type (debug, error, fatal and so on). The logging framework is a powerful feature that comes
