Fwd: Dragging an Object out of a View?

jamesr — 2008-08-20T20:59:00

well if you aren't using clipping then *visually* it's quite easy to make an object be dragged out of a parent view. This may be obvious. If your question is how to *reparent* a view from one container to another - the short answer is, you can't. The best pattern to use here is to save all the related parameters that compose the view being dragged and create a new view under the desired new parent and copy those parameters over. If you use that pattern, a simple copy/paste manager for that type of dragged object that will automatically do that given the object and the new parent is a good way to go. Did this help?

Hi there, I like to know the differences between the 'delete' operator and the 'destroy()' member function. If I create an LZ object, can I use 'delete' to delete the object instead of using "destry()" member function? The reason I ask this question is that 'destroy()' performance is very bad. Create an array of 50 objects, and then use 'destroy()' to destroy them, you will see the browser is basically frozen for a few minutes. But if I use delete, it runs very fast. Thanks!

Dragging an Object out of a View?

Adding an LzDataElement to a LzDataPath or DataSet?

Kenneth Miller — 2008-08-15T05:05:03

Is it possible to add a complex LzDataElement (multiple children) directly to a dataset? This seems overly complex. I'm replicating over a series of nodes, generating some viewable areas and a form at the bottom. I assemble an LzDataElement in the onmousedown event of the forms submit button. I understand that I can set up a new datapointer, point it to the same node in the dataset as it's parent replicated datapath, and then add a single node, but how can I append a complex LzDataElement? Regards, Ken

List not working with 'tree'

Chen Ding — 2008-08-14T02:13:03

Hi there, I am having a problem with the class 'tree'. In the code below, I create a list. When an entry in the list is clicked, it creates an instance of 'tree'. But the list clicking does not work properly. For instance, click the first entry, then use the scroll bar to scroll the list to the end of the list and then click the last entry, the list somehow jumps back to the last entry of the shown items before scrolling. Try to select an entry, use the scroll bar to make the selected entry unseen, and then select another entry, you should see the problems. But note that if I do not scroll the list, everything works perfectly. If I create a push button instead of a tree node when an entry is clicked, everything works just fine (i.e., uncomment Line 11 and comment out Line 10 in the code below). Your help is greatly appreciated! Chen Ding 1

Please file a bug at jira.openlaszlo.org. I'm guessing the smallest test case would be:

At the very least, the compiler should give you a more informative message. But the question is, do you want the compiler to complain if you have said you want the attribute to have a value, but failed to give it a value (the double-quotes are not part of the value)? Or do you want the compiler to assume that you didn't mean to give it a value after all? Under the covers, the reason you are getting an error is what you wrote: translates into the following Javascript: var z = ; which is not valid. On 2008-08-12, at 11:57EDT, Paulo Scardine wrote:

Re: REST support

Greg Denton — 2008-08-11T18:06:54

Thanks for the update and all the good work. My brief testing with 4.2alpha didn't go so well, I'll wait for the beta to be more thorough. Openlaszlo has such a good fundamental design for rapid application development that to hobble easily programmable communication with backend services over such a simple, open standard would be a loss.

A matrix is a good idea! Here is my understanding of what should work for SOLO http operations SWF8 SWF9 DHTML GET X X X POST X* X X PUT X X DELETE X X * in swf8, you can set the postbody to be a valid XML document, and that contentwill be posted verbatim. If you make something which is not valid XML, it will be posted as a string which is XML-escaped. If you see different behavior, please post a note to me or file a bug report with the details.

REST support

Greg Denton — 2008-08-08T21:42:33

Can anyone summarize the SOLO REST support that is (alpha)/will be (release) working in 4.2? A matrix would be nice :-). In the wiki even nicer so we wouldn't have to search so much. http://wiki.openlaszlo.org/Laszlo_on_REST looks like only proposals, need to track current status. swf8, swf9, dhtml POST PUT DELETE request set headers? response get headers, status code? cross-domain issues? I assume no problems with GET (other than maybe confusion with setQueryParams, LPP-6586). POST body looks like it Is fixed in 4.2beta: http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-6683 Might want to close this (or mark duplicate?): http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-2195 Pretty good overview of past problems (close and/or add comment, link to wiki?): http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-1045 Thanks a lot.
