I'm currently trying to map a java ArrayList with a Flex ArrayCollection, through LCDS. My Flex application does call the Java method that returns the ArrayList, but I haven't managed to retrieve the ArrayList to display it in a DataGrid, on Flex side.
JavaSide: I have 2 classes: - Jco_test.java: it contains the method public ArrayList all() - Customclass.java: it contains a constructor that initializes some variables
public class CustomClass {
String airline;
String cityFrom;
String cityTo;
Date flightDate;
BigDecimal price;
public CustomClass(String s1, String s2, String s3, Date d, BigDecimal bd){
airline = s1;
cityFrom = s2;
cityTo = s3;
flightDate = d;
price = bd;
}
}
FlexSide:
test.mxml:
import mx.messaging.AbstractConsumer;
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
import mx.controls.Alert;
public var flightList:ArrayCollection;
public function ResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{
flightList = (event.result as ArrayCollection);
}
public function FaultHandler(event:FaultEvent):void{
flightList = new ArrayCollection();
ta.text = "Error id: " + event.fault.errorID + "\n";
ta.text += "String: " + event.fault.faultString + "\n";
ta.text += "Code: " + event.fault.faultCode + "\n";
ta.text += "Detail: " + event.fault.faultDetail + "\n";
ta.text += "Stack: \n" + event.fault.getStackTrace() + "\n";
}
RemoteObject id="ro" destination="jco" result="ResultHandler(event);" fault="FaultHandler(event);"
<mx:Panel title="monTest" width="699" height="549" x="10">
<mx:Button label="go" click="ro.all();"/>
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="flightList">
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="AIRLINE" headerText="Airline" />
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="CITYFROM" headerText="From" />
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="CITYTO" headerText="To" />
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="FLIGHTDATE" headerText="Date" />
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="PRICE" headerText="Price" />
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
<mx:TextArea id="ta" width="100%" height="219"/>
</mx:Panel>
CustomClass.as:
[Bindable]
[RemoteClass(alias="utils.CustomClass")]
public class CustomClass{
public var airline:String;
public var cityFrom:String;
public var cityTo:String;
public var flightDate:Date;
public var price:String;
}
Am I doing something wrong? I still have some doubts... My ArrayList does not have headers. How can I retrieve the data in my DataGridColumn?
Thanks for any help you can provide. Regards.
(Sorry about the formatting issues...)
I had indeed forgotten the getter and the setters. Now, I can see in the server log the values I was looking for. But Flex is still not able to display the Data.
Here is the log:

I'm not sure about the DataGridColumn's datafield case sensitivity, so I changed the datafields to match each field.
I resolved my issues =) I had a binding mistake.
My dataGrid was using "flightList" as the dataProvider, but I did not define it as a Bindable variable.
Thanks a lot for your answers =)
