Hi,

Yes this is possible. I can give you a brief overview of how you can do it.

The UserList which is a List, you need to handle ItemDoubleClick event, and also I think you need to make doubleClickEnabled = true . Please check with the Asdocs for List class in flex for more details.

Regarding opening chat, when you double click, in the handler function, you need to add something like this to add SimpleChat

function doubleClickHandler(event:ListEvent):void

{

Var simpleChat:SimpleChat = new SimpleChat();

simpleChat.sharedID = "some id" ;

simpleChat.subscribe();

addChild(simpleChat);

simpleChat.width = "some width" ;

simpleChat.height = "some height" ;

}

SimpleChat extends a UIComponent, adding it is similar to adding an UIComponent , only thing is here you need to give it some id and call the method subscribe for the component to be synchronized.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

hi

   thanks for urs replys its helping a lot

and now i wnt some information from u abt private chat

see wt my doubt is iam getting user name and uid when i click on the user in the userlist with that iam creating an instance to the class "ChatMessageDescriptor" and with that iam sending msgs to the user clicked by the property recipient

and iam initiating that private chat in seperate label privatechat space and now wt the problem is when i click on the username

for example iam the user A and i clicked on user B the window gets open for userA and user A can send msgs to user B directly

but where as in place of User B the window doesnot get open,  only when he clicks on User A  he is able to send msgs to User A and he can chat w User A directly from there on words

so wt i want is how to intiate him that chat is open with User A  so click him in the userlist  or directly open him a window as soon as User A clicks

User B is this possible plz refer my code u will get clearly understood the problem

Hi Bharath, (Guess thats ur name,as it was in the code)

This should solve ur problem. The solution is simple, save the publisherId of the message u recieve in a private chat and send ur replies to that person.

protected function submitChat(str:String):void
            {              
             if(count==0)
             {
             clearChat();
             count=1;
             }
            var clickeduser:UserDescriptor = sess.userManager.userCollection[selindex] as UserDescriptor;
            var clickusername:String=clickeduser.displayName; 
            //private chat is between two people. So save the other person also in a protected var...
             cmd= new ChatMessageDescriptor();          
                if (_otherPrivateChatUser && clickeduser.userID == sess.userManager.myUserID) {
                    cmd.recipient=_otherPrivateChatUser;
                    cmd.recipientDisplayName=_otherUserName;
                } else {
                    cmd.recipient=clickeduser.userID
                    cmd.recipientDisplayName=clickusername;
                }
                cmd.msg=chat_mesg_input.text;                
                chatModel.sendMessage(cmd);
                chat_mesg_input.text = "";              
            }
            protected function onChatMsg(p_evt:ChatEvent):void
            {
                if(p_evt.message != null && p_evt.message.msg != null && p_evt.message.displayName != null)
                  
                    {
                       //private chat is between two people. So save the other person also in a protected var...
                       if (p_evt.message.publisherID != sess.userManager.myUserID) {
                        _otherPrivateChatUser = p_evt.message.publisherID;
                        _otherUserName = p_evt.message.displayName;      
                       }
                    chat_mesg_area.text += "\r\n" +  p_evt.message.displayName + ": " + p_evt.message.msg;
                    }
                else
                    {
                  
                    chat_mesg_area.text = "";  
                    }
                  
            }
