ArcGIS Viewer for Flex 2.4 - Geoprocessing widget

[PetraStrbenac]

Hi everyone,
I have just upgraded to the new version 2.4. I am really excited about Geoprocessing widget and other improvements!
I have already tried to create a Geoprocessing widget that will execute my geoprocessing service. I have copied .xlm file from existing geoprocessing widget and modified it to suite my geoprocessing service (changed task url, input and output parameters - I followed the widget documentation and was really carefull about syntax). I really found this easy to do but however I can't get rid of the application error #1104 (http response status: 200, fault code: Client.CouldNotDecode). I have looked it up (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/runtimeErrors.html?filter_flash=c...) and it seems like I have defined same attribute more then once for the same parameter (I checked code over and over again and I can't seem to find such a mistake) or is this pointing to something else?
Any help would be highly appreciated!

Hi!
I've noticed that Clear button on geoprocessing widget clears only graphics (drawn features) but doesn't clear the value of a string parameter (which can be a bit confusing for a user). How can I add this functionality to a Clear button? (I have tried to add this in widget's .mxml but I don't know how to reference a string input parameter? :-/)

I too am working with the geoprocessing widget and have had some initial success.  But, when my input parameter is a "DATE" field the Flex geoprocessing window provides a Calendar date picker which I am required to use.  Unfortunately the calendar starts in the year "00".  How can I set this calendar date picker to start with a date that is actually in my lifetime?

Thanks

Thomas,

   Every input parameter has a defaultvalue. So just add a defaultvalue="some date".

Robert,

Thank you for the quick response.  That was exactly what I needed.  Adding the following property to my Input parameter fixed my calendar picker.

defaultvalue="05/01/2011"

Thanks Again
