ActionScript 3.0 :: Checking To See If A File Exists Before Loading?
Jun 11, 2009in AS3 to check if a file exists before loading it. There was not very much about so I wrote these classes to do it. There are two classes, the FileLoaderUtils and the UtilEvent. the FileLoaderUtils has the function doesFileExist(url:String) and when called the class uses the URLStream class to attempt to load the file. If the file exists a UtilEvent.FILE_EXISTS event is dispatched. If the URL is incorrect or the file doesn not exist a UtilEvent.FILE_NOT_FOUND event is dispatched.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Checking If Symbol Exists In Library
Aug 13, 2007My situation is thus: I have an XML file with entries, each of which contains a handle (linkage ID) to the movie clip that represents that entry onstage. So I dynamically load these symbols in from the library accordingly. Only problem is, I need to be able to count how many of those entries are valid, that is, how many of the XML entries have handles that actually do correctly correspond to the names of the symbols in the library. So right now in order to count the entries I am using the value of how many entries were in the XML file but this is wrong, I need a value of how many entries in the XML correspond correctly to a library symbol.
As it stands now, if all the names in the XML file match those in the .fla, all is good. Otherwise, issues. The thing is, I want this setup to be robust so the program takes responsibility and resolves issues if there are errors in the XML. Now, the only way I can see to fixing this simply, is if there is a way to check if a symbol exists in the library -- without actually trying to load it. That way I can count just those symbols from the XML file that also do exist in the library.

Now, if the file exists and contains data, the condition n2 is met...it's OK! But now, if the file exists BUT is empty it doesn't meet the condition n2.. It's not "undefined" neither "not undefined" since any trace action accours.
In other words, how can I check that a text file exists...AND that it's empty or not (so that I can add a branch if that condition is met?) Try by yourself with an empty text file named "Favorites.ini".

View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Checking For External File?
Apr 10, 2009I want to use an external actionscript file for a set of variables for a movie I'm working on.
However, as I cannot guarantee that the external file would be available (it's for our sales reps to use on their own laptops) is there a way of testing for the #included file?
My idea is that the integrated script looks for the external file: if it finds that file, it is used. If the external file is unavailable, the internal script defaults to its own variables.
Professional :: Checking When File Has Loaded (AS2 In CS3)
Feb 8, 2010I am currently writing a site and one of the things it does is read variables from a database (by using the following code to access a php file which does the database lookup): loadVariablesNum ("loadvariables.php", 0, "POST"); This works perfectly, however following this I load a number of images based on the variables that are returned. i can't work out how to put an eventlistener, or something similar, so i can tell when loadvariables.php has finished loading. Then i can just load the relevant images in the oncomplete section (or the equivalent).
View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Checking The Pixels Of A Swf File?
May 26, 2010I have a swf file that's (for example) 500px wide, however, the viewing area (meaning the viewable content) of the swf is 300. The other 200px is masked out. If I try to align the viewing area, then it doesn't work because the alignment is based on a 500px width, not 300px. Normally, I'd just do a little math to make the 200px adjustment, but in my case, I don't know what the size of the actual viewing area is (because the swf is being loaded dynamically). Is there a way I can check color of the pixels, or check to see if there is some type of transparency occurring at a certain point?
