Mediator Problem

[isragaytan]

Hello everyone!

I have a little complication in my Mediator.

Here is the scenario:

I am working with the pureMVC MultiCore.
At startup i prepare the proper proxy and views  for a data retrieval. This works fine
since all the calls are executed correctly. In the mediator i have a reference to my view
component and my proxy so i handle a notification like this:

 case ApplicationFacade.ObtenEstadosCiviles_finished:
                ApplicationFacade.getInstance(APPNAME).catalogosResult.ObtenEstadosCivilesResult = notification.getBody() as Array;
                  
               datosCompSolicitud.DatosPersonas.myCBEstadoCivil.data="Gc04IdEstadoCivil";   
               datosCompSolicitud.DatosPersonas.myCBEstadoCivil.labelField = "Gc04EstadoCivil";               
               datosCompSolicitud.DatosPersonas.myCBEstadoCivil.dataProvider=listProxy.getData().ObtenEstadosCivilesResult;
              
              
                 break;   

this works fine in the proper comboBox!

First question here its..

Why my notification.getBody() dont have anything? since i send in the proxy the proper notification like this..

private virtual function ObtenEstadosCivilesHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
        {                   
           //ObtenEstadosCiviles
           //Alert.show("Obteniendo resultados en el proxy");
           catalogos.ObtenEstadosCivilesResult=event.result as Array;
           setData(catalogos);
            sendNotification( ApplicationFacade.ObtenEstadosCiviles_finished, catalogos.ObtenEstadosCivilesResult );
       
           
        }

Second question and here is my headache

When i assign to another notification interest the data in the first combo dissapears...its important to say that i debug the listProxy and i have all the necesary data!!! it has the correct data

so..my code is

case ApplicationFacade.ObtenPaises_finished:
              
               ApplicationFacade.getInstance(APPNAME).catalogosResult.ObtenPaisesResult = notification.getBody() as Array;
              
              
               datosCompSolicitud.DatosPersonas.myCBPaisNacio.data="Gc06IdPais";
               datosCompSolicitud.DatosPersonas.myCBPaisNacio.labelField="Gc06Pais";
            datosCompSolicitud.DatosPersonas.myCBPaisNacio.dataProvider=listProxy.getData().ObtenPaisesResult;
              
                 break; 

I debug and the proxy has all the data.. I dont know what i am missing, i checked all the name instances everything necesary and i dont find the problem

Thanks in advance..

The one useful thing I can tell you is that you don't need to get the facade instance; all mediators, proxies and commands already have a reference to your facade.

So instead of

:

ApplicationFacade.getInstance(APPNAME).
just do

:

facade.
So my first question is what are you doing here:

:

ApplicationFacade.getInstance(APPNAME).catalogosResult.ObtenEstadosCivilesResult = notification.getBody() as Array;
It looks like you're setting the result on your facade. That doesn't make sense. You should be getting it into a local variable to set on the view component.

Second question is in your proxy, you have:

:

catalogos.ObtenEstadosCivilesResult=event.result as Array;
Is catalogos defined somewhere else? Is catalogos perhaps an implicit getter that looks like:

private function get catalogos():Array
{
    return data as Array;
}

If so, is it possible that catalogos is null when you try to set its ObtenEstadosCivilesResult property? Have you set a breakpoint in the Flex Builder debugger on the sendNotification like and checked out catalogos.ObtenEstadosCivilesResult in the variables view at that point? Have you set a breakpoint right on the first line of the ObtenEstadosCivilesHandler method and investigated the event property?

Thanks Cliff i resolved the problem.!

The problem was a reference in catalogs. Thats done!!!

Now i got a question about register views...

When i initialize the application i do it with the proper command for
example ViewPrepCommand like this..:

override public function execute(notification:INotification):void{
         
         var app:cdiintegra=notification.getBody() as cdiintegra;
         
         //Registro el mediador
         facade.registerMediator(new SolicitudSocioMediator(app.solicitudSocio));
         
}

If i have more views inside solicitudSocio component with the proper id.. do i have also register those views?? and the proper mediators???

If the answer is yes how can i do that?

something like this?...

override public function execute(notification:INotification):void{
         
         var app:cdiintegra=notification.getBody() as cdiintegra;
         
         //Registro el mediador
         facade.registerMediator(new SolicitudSocioMediator(app.solicitudSocio));

                   facade.registerMediator(new SolicitudSocioMediator(app.solicitudSocio.DatosSolicitudSocio));
         
}

Thanks PUREMVC

Hey Isra!

Your code is correct!

You should checkout the source files of the demos. They cover pretty much of all those questions.

You should probably make the mediator for the app actually mediate the app and not a child of it.

:

override public function execute( notification:INotification ):void
{
         
         var app:cdiintegra=notification.getBody() as cdiintegra;
         
         //Registro el mediador
         facade.registerMediator( new ApplicationMediator( app ) );
         
}

And if you have children of the app that need mediators, you can register them in the ApplicationMediator.

:

override public function onRegister():void
{
         //Registro el mediador
         facade.registerMediator( new SolicitudSocioMediator( app.solicitudSocio ) );
}

private function get app():cdiintegra
{
   return viewComponent as cdiintegra;
}

And if those children have children that need mediators...

:

override public function onRegister():void
{
         //Registro el mediador
         facade.registerMediator( new DatosSolicitudSocioMediator( datosSolicitudSocio.DatosSolicitudSocio ) );
}

private function get datosSolicitudSocio():DatosSolicitudSocio
{
   return viewComponent as DatosSolicitudSocio;
}

This way the Mediator whose job it is to know the app or component in question is the one in charge of registering its children's mediators.

Thanks again Cliff!!!..

Yesterday i saw a very nice example about diferred instanciation. (Slacker) since i have a tab in my main window..... This solved a lot of questions about the application. Also i saw how you can handle popups and its a little bit the same thing. I have to register the mediators! "on the fly...


Thanks a lot Cliff ...
