Problem with Shapefiles widget 3.7

DonaldBrown

I just upgraded to version 3.7 of ArcGIS Viewer for Flex. I also deleted the old 3.6 widgets and then added in the 3.7 versions. Everything works fine (elayerlist, identify, swipespotlight) except the shapefile widget. I get a 2036 error in Firefox browser (2035 error in Chrome). Take a look:

ArcGIS Viewer for Flex

Here is a snippet from my config.xml:

</widgetcontainer>

Also, here's the contents of my ShapefilesWidget_1.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<defaultlabelplacement>middle</defaultlabelplacement>

</simplefillsymbol>

</simplemarkersymbol>

</symbols>

<textplacementmiddle>Middle</textplacementmiddle>

<textplacementabove>Above</textplacementabove>

<textplacementbelow>Below</textplacementbelow>

<textplacementstart>Start</textplacementstart>

<textitalictooltip>Italics</textitalictooltip>

<textunderlinetooltip>Underline</textunderlinetooltip>

<instructions>To load a shapefile the files must be zipped.

At a minimum there must be 2 files in the zip, 1 .shp, 1 .dbf, and an optional .prj file.

Click the button below to upload a shapefile from your computer.

To change symbology and other preferences click on the wrench icon above.</instructions>

<loadbutton>Load Local Shapefile...</loadbutton>

<addbutton>Load Shapefile</addbutton>

<optionsbutton>Preferences</optionsbutton>

<readingmessage>Reading shapefile</readingmessage>

<reprojectingmessage>Reprojecting</reprojectingmessage>

<numberoffeaturesmessage>Number of Features:</numberoffeaturesmessage>

<addedmessage>Added Shapefiles:</addedmessage>

<addlabels>Label Features</addlabels>

<labelplacement>Label placement</labelplacement>

<includeoutline>Include Outline</includeoutline>

<labelstexttoadd>Labels</labelstexttoadd>

<configresultmessage>Configure Shapefile</configresultmessage>

<removeresultmessage>Remove Shapefile</removeresultmessage>

</labels>

</configuration>

The files referenced in config.xml DO exist. It's weird that all the other widgets work fine. Any ideas?

Same for me about the case. But the 3.7 shapefile widget works fine for me.

config.xml:

Note that this code was untouched by me during upgrade from Flex 3.6, and was likely carried over from the Flex 3.6 version of the viewer.

Donald,

I will have to look into that and see if there is something in the code that is doing that.

DonaldBrown

Looking closer at it... no, it doesn't exist.

Strange, when I add the Shapefile widget to an app, it creates a .swf named:

ShapeFilesWidget.swf

The reference to that .swf is automatically created in config.xml:

widgets/Shapefiles/ShapefilesWidget.swf

If I change the lowercase 'f' to 'F' in config.xml, everything works. Not sure why it gets generated wrong though.

Donald,

I can not seem to find the swf at this url:

https://www.sciencebase.gov/flexviewer/test2/widgets/Shapefiles/ShapefilesWidget.swf

Can you verify that the swf is actually there?
