• Using conditional binding in Flex and AIR applications

  Problem

  Sometimes the binding feature in a Flex or AIR application is triggered, just because you remove a component from the display list by going to another view state. This faulty triggering can cause some irregularities in your application due to other components using that binding.

  Solution

  Make use of the BindUtils class to create your own binding method that allows you to implement conditional logic.

  Problem

  How to modify properties of a document when it is created/updated in IBM CM using LiveCycle Processes?

  Solution

  When a document is created/updated in IBM CM using LiveCycle, along with the contents of the document, its properties can also be modified. Properties of a document ultimately depends upon the Item type of the document in IBM CM. Case 1: In case, if at the design time of the process, Item Type of the document is already known, LiveCycle ES2 workbench can fetch all the properties that are attached to a document of that item type and user can then set values for all/none of these depending upon the item type's required and non-required properties. Case 2: However, if in case Item Type is not previously known, OR you might instead want to use a more flexible design where properties are actually forwarded through a map variable you will take a slightly different approach.
