I am trying to figure out with ESB. Software Ag Designer.
I am getting error.
Transformers cannot loop over list elements.
When I am doing transform.
Please help.
The documentList that you are trying to calculate the size of relatedPartyRef is a part of another Document List requestedTimeSlot. Please loop over the first DocumentList requestedTimeSlot and find the size of child DocumentList inside the loop.
If I see it correctly in your screenshot, in your "sizeOfList" transformer you are not getting the reference to the single "requestedTimeSlot" item in the loop, but to the whole "searchTimeSlot/requestedTimeSlot[]" array (notice the difference in the icons between your screenshot and the example below).
Try removing the map step containing the transformer and adding it back again. If that does not help, maybe you need to install the latest fixes for your version.
Example of mapping in nested loop
hope this helps

Why does Chrome display two differing datasets depending on if you have the object view expanded?
In contracted view, my object has two properties:
In expanded view, my object has three properties:
The object you see in the console is a snapshot of the object at a particular point in time - the time when you logged it. When you expand the object, it will evaluate the properties again.
In the example below, I have created an object with two array properties. I logged it the console, and then I added a third property, c to it.
Only the first two properties are showing still, even though I just added a third property. After expanding the object in the console, I can see the third one. It is the latest state of the object.
If you hover over the little blue i icon, it explains what it has done:
Value below was evaluated just now.
#Gideon Pyzer is right. the properties were caculated and added after expanding the object in the console.
Just add one line code above your debug code and reopen the chrome dev tool, you will see the differences.
obj = Object.freeze(obj); //add this line before your console.log
console.log(obj);
Before:
After:
one similar question of mine:
Why can't I access the attr of the javascript object shown in chrome dev tool
You can clone your object to prevent re-evaluate.
console.log(Object.assign({}, obj));
You can get a real hard copy object by using this module. It will give you the snapshot of the object at moment when you call it.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/nest-object-deep-copy
const nestedHardCopy = require('nest-object-deep-copy');
console.log(nestedHardCopy(obj));
How to create a line/path between two objects. Start and end point of path/line should not begin/end at the center of the respective object. Below i'm attaching the screenshot of sample. I need to calculate the logic to find the red line at any position. Black line is wrong one.
And it is purely based on SVG not html elements.
Thanks in advance
I found the solution without using any library based on the given below URL's.

I'm quite new to as3, and I'm heading with a (for me complex) problem.
I have some identical objects (movieclips), wich I made draggable sqaures.
But I want to achieve the following thing:
When I drag one of these objects to another one, I want them to "attach" to each other, just like in some "building games".
And after two (or more) objects are attached, I need them to be draggable as a new whole.
Which means if you click on any of them, every object drags along, en they stay om the same attached position.
I honestly don't know how to do this.
I would appreciate if anyone could provide some examples or code.
Thanksin advance!
Here's a simple algorithm for you:
1) Make an array that will hold "draggable" objects.
2) Upon selecting the first object add it to the array.
3) On FRAME_ENTER move (translate) all the object that are in the draggable array and check objects in the array collision with other objects. If the collision is true, add those objects to the draggable item array.
People here won't write code for you, it's up to you. But if you run into a problem where your code does not work how you intend it, feel free to post it and surely some help will come!
Okay, so I've been busting my hump the last week or so on this project for my OOP/AS3 course and this past Sunday I realized that my approach wasn't going to work so I scrapped the better part of it and started over.
Our assignment is to create an XML based flash menu that demonstrates an understanding of the OOP patterns we've just learned. It was kind of a 'test the waters' project where he gave us a ton of tutorials and information and told us to make our best attempt at making sense of it so I'm certain there are more efficient ways to do what I'm doing, but that's a moot point.
We need to employ at least two patterns in our menu, though at the moment I'm just focusing on MVC so that I can get the mainUI working before I finalize the second part of the UI. It essentially flows like so:
MainUI has 4 menus that slide out.
Each slider has 3 thumbnails on it.
Clicking on any of the thumbnails will move to the next part of the UI. This functionality is currently disabled.
The program runs with 0 compiler errors, but the images are not being placed on the stage correctly and I can't figure out why. All the image paths are being pulled and stored from the XML properly. The main background image is pulled once and is supposed to be only placed once (if statement that uses a count to determine whether to run the placement function or not), but it is being placed 4 times with the sliding menu image. The sliders are being placed in the correct positions (switch statement that iterates through the mainUI function in the View class and creates a separate loader for each one), but the thumbnails are not all showing up. So here is what I'm seeking help with:
The mainPanel image should only be placed once, rather than 4 times with each slider.
The sliders, while being placed correctly, must be tweened in different directions through the as (using TweenMax), but each instance is unidentifiable from the other so right now they all have an eventListener that calls the same tween method. How can I distinguish them in a way that lets me apply a different tween to each (This will likely be a concern with the thumbnail functionality later as I will need to load different XML data based on which thumb is clicked).
I have added what I hope are very informative comments to each script so hopefully people can help. Also included are images of what I want the mainUI to eventually look like and how it's coming out currently.

top image is how the stage is outputting, bottom image is what I'd like to to be - http://imgur.com/a/bOmsS
Last quick note, stage is currently set to 600x480 with a black background. Ideally, to reinforce OOP principles, our professor wants us to avoid using the timeline or library if possible.
Any advice at all will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Install FlexPMD This is a very good add on( sometimes hard to install ) It basically is used to show areas of your code that you are not following standards. For example your classes lack the use of "this". And you should avoid passing parameters in constructors. It would be good practice to develop standardized writing skills while you are still new.
Looking at your code I see you are calling buildUI from within a loop.
buildUI is assigning a MainView object to mainUI.
So each time you go through a loop iteration you are reassigning mainUI.
In the end mainUI will only be the last iteration of that loop.
Not sure this is your issue but is an issue.
[EDIT]
Excellent Singleton guide for Flex SDK
Part 1
Part 2
Some Good writing on pure AS3 Singletons.
I would prolly start from scratch as your XML data is miss formatted.
your XML should resemble something like this.
<MainProject>
<MainUI>
<Thumbnail Name="Spring">
<Destination Name="Spring" Price="99" ratingPath="images/SP1/SP1rating.png" />
</Thumbnail>
<Thumbnail Name="Winter">
<Destination Name="Winter" Price="152" ratingPath="images/SP1/SP2rating.png" />
</Thumbnail>
</MainUI>
</MainProject>
Then you should have the following structure on your stage. These movieclips should be empty and already placed inside on your stage with instance name.
Stage
MenuUI MovieClip
ThumbNail1 MovieClip <- feed it thumbnail from the XML
ThumbNail2 MovieClip <- feed it thumbnail from the XML
ThumbNail3 MovieClip <- feed it thumbnail from the XML
ThumbNail4 MovieClip <- feed it thumbnail from the XML
This might be a bit too vague, just tell me if you need more details.
Hope this helps !
I got a problem with processing an array in actionScript. I removed the last element of an array through array.pop(). After that I would like to put this removed display-object back to the beginning of the array: array.unshift(object). The object is now the first element of the array but it got still its old label (number of the last element). Therefor I can't update the position (graphically) of the display object. Is it possible to "reindex" the array?
A popped element will not keep it's index, since it will be taken out of the array. If you're trying to unshift(array[i]) after popping array[i], you get an error for referencing an index that no longer exists.
In order to do what you're describing, you can say array.unshift(array.pop()) and then reference the moved element at array[0].
I used the above method when I created an endlessly looping slideshow.
Edit.
It seems I misunderstood your problem slightly. IIRC it is not possible to manipulate an array you're traversing over.
Please post the snippet you're having trouble with for a more educated answer.
