dynapi-dev — List related to the current DynAPI Core development

Re: FWD: Re: [Dynapi-Dev] A few Questions ?

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Well said Doug :) Only if we could also get the user
on the dynapi-help list to join the dev-group to help
out with this new version. How about dropping the help
group a line? Agree?

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] A few changes to DynAPI

Line 81 of dynapi.js contains a version variable that
you can use. Or you can get the version by using
dynapi.version

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Image rollover NS4 bug

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

--- Kevin <ke...@ke...> wrote:
> What are <layer> isolations? 

In NS4 each layer has it's own document object and
thus document.images will not work in those layers. We
would have to do something like
document.layers['name'].document.images['name']; to
gain access to the images in that layer.

I didn't spot that the

No. I don't think MouseEvents should be an extension
like the DynKeyEvents. MouseEvents is basically a very
essential part of dynapi. I can seem to think of a
DynAPI app of website that will never use MouseEvents.
If users don't want if all they have to do is to not
use dynapi.api and use EventObject, etc.

FWD: Re: [Dynapi-Dev] A few Questions ?

[Doug M. <do...@cr...>]

Hey guys, I send the below message to Ramesh, including the attachements,
but the list system bounced it (I'm sure it whent to here, just not you.)
So here is my reply to them minus the attachments.

Is it just me, or is it kinda cool that soemone in India is considering the
DynAPI
for their company?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
From Doug Melvin TO Ramesh Pallikara
Hello Ramesh!
I have attached the latest build of DynAPI 3x from the CVS.
I hope zip is okay, if not let me know and I'll provide it in rar..
In the root of the archive you will find an index.html, this will bring you
to the documentation.

I would like to point out that this is indeed an alpha release, and as such,
may still have some bugs in it.

Also, as an alpha release, you will find a lack of complex widgets such as a
treeview.

I do however believe that this release is superior to the last one as it has
been optimized to
load faster, and work cleaner that nay previous release.

I have attached the current version of the scrollbar, scrollpane and button
widgets as well for your
review.

Documentation should be release for the scrollbar, button and scrollpane
within the week.

This release is design to support the following browsers on Mac, Windows,
and *NIX platforms:
 Opera 7+
 Internet Explorer 4+
 Konqueror 3+
 Safari
 Netscape 4+
 Mozilla 1+
 Phoenix 0.5+

If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions do feel free to post
them on the list.
Also note that we do encourage all users of the DynAPI to become
contributors to the project itself,
so do feel free to add your two cents worth where you feel appropriate.

cheers,
Doug Melvin

[Dynapi-Dev] browser event and dynevents !!!!

[Ramesh P. <ra...@in...>]

hi,

is there an easy way using dynapi to get event properties such as x, y  
from a onclick browser event on a link in the web page (ie) the source 
not being  a dynlayer.

in other words : something like this
<script>

showPosition(event)
{
       var dynEvt = new DynEvent(event);
       alert(" x ="+dynEvt.getX()+" y ="+dynEvt.getY())
}

</script>
<body>
<a href="javascript:void(0)" onClick="showPosition(event)">mylink</a>
<body>

[Dynapi-Dev] A few Questions ?

[Ramesh P. <ra...@in...>]

hi,

i've been evaluating DynAPI for use in our company's web-applications 
and i would like to ask a few questions in this regard.

a )  here's one i dread to ask on a free/open sourcesoftware mailing 
list,  any ideas or guesses when the next build is likely to happen. Any 
"milestone build" or  "developer build " or some kind of  a pre-alpha  
build, would be very helpful for us in incorporating it.

b)  i saw link(http://dynapi.sourceforge.net/snapshot/?N=D) for daily 
builds but that seems to be on a different line, is there a similar 
automated daily build available for dynapi3x ???

regards
ramesh pallikara

QOTD:
	"I've always wanted to work in the Federal Mint.  And then go on

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] A few changes to DynAPI

[Doug M. <do...@cr...>]

That's easy enough.
My ideas:
Line 142: var dynapi = new DynAPIObject();
Line 143: dynapi.version="3.0a";
Line 144: dynapi.major=3;
Line 145: dynapi.minor=0;
Line 146: dynapi.revision='a';

Or even a version object of some kind:
dynapi.version = {
    getVersion : function(){ return 3.0; };
    getMajor : function(){ return 3; },
    getMinor : function(){ return 0; },
    getRevision : function(){ return 'a'; }
};

Or how about an array?
dynapi.version=[3,0,'a'];

Just a few ideas..

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Spaceship found a black hole?

[Kevin <ke...@ke...>]

Yes maybe a worm ate the ship360.gif file?

clipImage:"images/ship360.gif"

As for games we need to iron out container
and content re/sizing plus whether a dlyr w/h
should be scroll or offset or shoot-emy foot.

What are <layer> isolations? I didn't spot that the
example didn't need to include the dynapi.api.*
I like the idea of a general library before the api.
Should mouse events be an ext like key events to
include if needed by the user or possibly a library
dependence include order?

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Image rollover NS4 bug

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Well, what do you know... In order for functions.Image
to work with NS4 (due to <layer> isolations) the
MouseEvent library will have to be included. This will
cause links to be assigned the ._dynobj property.

For NS4 I'll set it so whenever the Image library is 
loaded it will automatically load the MouseEvent
library, agree? Is there another solution?

That's not so good for the galaxy now isn't it?  :)

Got any ideas as to why the image is not showing up?

PS. On another note is anyone creating games with
DynAPI? Things like pacman, space invader, puzzles,2D
shoot-em ups, etc would be nice to see.

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] A few changes to DynAPI

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Thanks for the feedback.

Any proposals for the version.xml file?

I was thinking of something like:

<version>
   <major>3</major>
   <minor>0</minor>
</version>

Good choice.. "compile" is a very miss-leading word in this context.

[Dynapi-Dev] A few changes to DynAPI

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Hello Everyone,

I was just looking through a few things and came up
wth the following:

1) We should add a version.xml file to the dynapi/src
folder. This will allow WYSIWYG editors to detect the
version of DynAPI that is currently been used. It can
be used in other environments.

2) We currently have two revision files. One in the
dynapi/ folder (revision) and another in the
dynapi/docs/docs folder (revision.html). I think we
should maintain only one revision file, agree? If yes
then I would recommend that we only use the
revision.html file, agree?

3) DynAPI Compiler will be renamed to DynAPI
Compressor.

[Dynapi-Dev] TortoiseCVS

Hi, just want to tip you about a CVS-client I'm trying right now, that 
seems to be a lot better and easier to use than WinCVS.

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] CVS updated with a few fixes

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

One other thing.. I've added a few lines of code to
the getInnerHtml() function to speed up layers with
more than 50 nested child layers. You can test it to
see if it really speed things up.

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] New cvs dynlayer_ns4.js is broken

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Hi,

I've noticed that the following will cause ns4 to
return wrong results:

<style>
<!--
.yellowboxnumber { text-align:center; }
-->
</style>

var box=dynapi.document.addChild(new
DynLayer(null,0,0,776,169,'#666666'));
var lyr=box.addChild(new
DynLayer(i,x,y,null,null,'yellow'));
lyr.setClass('yellowboxnumber');

If the width and height vaules are missing the
getContentWidth/Height function will return incorrect
values for the dynlayer. This is because of the
lyr.setClass('yellowboxnumber') setting. It would
appear that ns4 is very buggy when if comes on to
style sheets. One quick solotion if to ensure that
your width and height values are always set:

var lyr=box.addChild(new
DynLayer(i,x,y,30,20,'yellow'));


On the other hand:


<style>
<!--
.yellowboxcommon {
  position:absolute; top:1px;
  width:30px; height:20px; clip:rect(0px 30px 20px
0px);
  background-color:yellow;
layer-background-color:yellow;
  text-align:center; overflow:hidden;
visibility:inherit;
}
-->
</style>

var box=dynapi.document.addChild(new
DynLayer(null,0,0,776,169,'#666666'));
for(var i=0;i<200;i++){
  lyr=box.addChild(new DynLayer(i));
  lyr.setID('yellowbox'+i);
  lyr.setClass('yellowboxcommon',true);
}

The above will cause ns4 to return incorrect
getContentWidth/Height values. The "return
this.css.clip.height;" and "return
this.css.clip.width;" patch does not return the exact
content width/height of the layer. Instead the laveyrs
clip height/width is what is returned. This patch will
also cause ordinary DynLayers to return incorrect
content width/height values. One quick solution is to
always set width and height values:

lyr=box.addChild(new DynLayer(i,null,null,30,20));


In my opinion ns4 does not support the setClass
property very well. If the above errors can't be fixed
then I would suggest that this function be ignored for
ns4 or that a warning be added to the docs about it's
use with ns4. 

What do you all think? Can we fix this?
