ActionScript 2.0 :: Application Structure / Flash Remoting & MovieClipLoader
Jul 11, 2007
I'm building an application that is going to use Flash Remoting very heavily. I'm wondering how I should structure my Service connections. Should I put them in each(several) loaded movies or in the root timeline where any loaded move can access them. The latter would cause issues when trying to test each movie individually. But by putting the Service connections in each movie would require imports needed for FR at the top affecting load time. Also, I'm new to using the moviecliploader. I have a few functioning properly, however, is it wise to try and create a "smart" loader? Meaning use one loader having code to zip when the zip.swf is loaded and zag with zag.swf. Or should I just accept, and get in the habit of using a zip loader and a zag loader separately, meaning each loader simply serve a specific function.

I'm looking for examples (code) of applications that uses Flash (NOT Flex) and Remoting classes for ActionScript 3 (NetConnection). Once there was ARP, a repository of code of this kind, but it seems there is not anymore. I'm trying to figure out how to build an applications that makes heavy use of calls to WebORB and responders. I need an architect point of view, NOT a sample of communication between parts, but a real world scenario.

I have an Application consisting of a Java Server part and a Flash/Flex client, both communicate via BlazeDS. In order to have the same typed Objects on both sites, I use the GAS3 code generator (used by flex-mojos).But now I am facing the problem of handling nullable Integers. The problem is that I have an Object (A) which contains a foreign key ID which is reference an optional Object B. - But I only send the ID to the flex client.On the Java site it is easy:
class A {
private Integer bFk;
getter/setter
}
But on the flex client side, bFk is of type int. And a Flash int can not be null. So the remoting mechanism converts the Java null Integer to 0. After sending it back to the server, the Java bFk becomes 0 even on the Java side. - That is not acceptable, because I need to separate 0 and nullMy first workround is using not a Integer on the Java side, but an new Class NullAbleID, which works a bit like a wrapper/adapter, that wrap an internal int where -1 represent null (I can use -1 for null, because real id will be negative). But when I would using this it means I have to replace all Java Integer ids, by this NullAbleID class.

I seem to run into compile issues in Flash Builder when I import 3rd-party libraries at the wrong level in the directory structure. For example, sometimes I'll import a library one level too deep into its directory tree, and the package explorer ends up excluding the prefix root-level package, usually "com." or "net.". Even though the content of the source itself doesn't change, this will cause compile errors.
Thus: Is it a 1) convention or 2) language requirement that a class's package structure (e.g., "foo.bar.Class") must match its path location (e.g., foo/bar/Class.as)?
If it's a language requirement, why is it a requirement? Wouldn't that overdetermine the package structure, since it is already specified in the source code and quite happily consuming the first three to eight columns of each line? If it's not a language requirement, are my compile errors just a result of Flash Builder enforcing the convention?

I've built a application that communicates with Coldfusion cfc functions via Remoting. I've noticed that the NetConnection object disconnects after each call, is this expected behaviour? For some reason I was expecting the NetConnection object to stay connected until I closed it myself (I'm making about 1 request per second and had planned for it to stay open).

I am trying to load data using flash remoting from a mysql database via php using amfphp, i have an event listener that waits for a combobox to be used and changed, once it does, the data in there should be sent to the backend part of the system via flash remoting using PendingCall and once done should retrieve the data and place it into a second combobox. but it doesn't work.
var sectionListener:Object = new Object();
sectionListener.change = function(){
trace("1");

There is a client - server basic application. The client uses a simple remoting to comunicate with the server side. The server side could be powered on WebORB, BlazeDS or any other product. The client side is using the FLEX framework. That is it about a technologies stack. Now, let's forget about the server side and just have a look on the following client side

I'm finding little info out there on using Flash and remoting services. Currently I'm starting out using AMFPHP which works pretty well for sending back simple sets of data but I'd like to send back complex query types which translate to RecordSets. I have two problems:
1) Is this the way it's currently done? PHP backend with AMFPHP for webservices so my Flash program can access it? Or should I be using a different setup?
2) How do I add the mx.remoting services in CS5? The only docs I find say to add it under Other Panels but I don't have the next area under that in CS5.

I dont know if its the right forum for my post or not. But I need to ask if there is anyway to show the folder structure of a clients PC in flash when the user clicks on a browse button in a web site just like the one below? I googled for a "Multiple File Uploader using flash" but what I found there is that an open file window opens and we are able to select multiple files from it. I could not found anything like below. So my question is that whether we will be able toshow all the folder structure or not?

What is a good structure for a complete Flash website. ex.
1) Index.swf ( which is just a container and loader for the actual SWF site content)
2) Main.swf (the main content of the site that gets loaded in by Index.swf)
Should the index.swf load in several SWF's , like navigation file , news reel file , etc....Also , if anyone know of a web site that has this information or knows of a book that covers this material ,

Should I be coding everything in document class... using xml.... using only external swfs as my 'pages'? an anyone offer advice or a resource on the best way to organize contemporary clean and efficient flash websites?

I didn't see anything posted on this, hopefully these questions aren't repeats. So, in the tutorial, it shows how to define globals, import XML, import CSS, and load some external files into movieclips. My questions are:
1. How do you control the play order of the imported .swfs? For example, if I load my movie border/bg and it has action, then the menu with action then the main image which also has an action, how do I set up the movie clips to play in order?
2. When I import my bg swf, how do I scale it to 100% but leave the rest of the items unscaled?
3. Can certain parameters of the DropShadowFilter that gets assigned to "filtersArray" be accessed to alter the distance (as an example) so specific params can be altered for different movie clips?
I will probably add to this. The tutorial was so useful that I am trying to relearn my methodology, but there are some gaps.

I am very new to remoting in flex. I am using flex 4.5 and talking to a web application built by someone else on the team using AMF. They have used Zend_AMF to serialize and unserialize the data.One of the main issues I am facing at the moment is that I will need to talk to a lot of services (about 60 or so).From examples on remoting I have seen online and from adobe, it seems that I need to define a remoting object for EACH service:
<mx:RemoteObject id="testservice" fault="testservice_faultHandler(event)" showBusyCursor="true" destination="account"/>
With so many services, I think I might have to define about 60 of those, which I don't think is very elegant.At the same time, I have been playing with Pinta to test out the AMF endpoint. Pinta seems to be able to allow one to define an arbitary amount of services, methods and parameters without any of these limitations. Digging through the source, I find that they have actually drilled down deep into the remoting and are handling a lot of low level stuff.
