Load Shapefile Widget

[ChadHinckley1]

I also get an 2036 error when trying to run the load shapefile widget. Here is the code. Please help!

<widget label="Load Shape Files" x="400" y="60"
icon="widgets/ShapeFiles/images/shapefiles.png"
config="widgets/ShapeFiles/ShapeFiles.xml"
url="widgets/ShapeFiles/ShapeFiles.swf"/>

Thanks,

Chad,

   Are you using the compiled or uncompiled version of the Flex Viewer? Do you actually have this file widgets/ShapeFiles/ShapeFiles.swf in that folder?

[ChadHinckley1]

I am using the compiled version.  I do have the widgets/Shapefiles/Shapefile.sfw. The Widget shows up in my application, but when i click on it i gives me the 2036 error.

Thanks,

Chad,

   What does your ShapeFiles.xml look like?

Here is the ShapeFile.xml.

Chad,

   Are you trying to use the Flex Viewer 2.2 widget in the current Flex Viewer 2.5?..

[ChadHinckley1]

Robert,

Yes i am using the 2.2 version widget.

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

Chad,

   That is the issue. You can not use a Flex Viewer 2.2 widget in Flex Viewer 2.5, many times there has been changes to the core Flex Viewer and older widgets will not work unless recompiled for the latest version and as you can see if you look at peoples comments on the widgets download page no one has sucessfully recompiled for 2.5.

Robert,

Thank you for your help.
