ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX] Creating A Simple Read & Write Database In Flash?
Feb 4, 2005
I'm working on this flash game right now and I need to implement a simple players database...
It needs to be both read and writable . Meaning, when the player register to save his character information , he needs to key in his email and a password and create an account. The account shall store that player's life amount, ammunition etc . All the infos are stored on an external file and retrieved again when the player logins to the game with the email as his login ID. Security issues are not the biggest concern here because its not exactly meant to be an online game and I don't think hacking would be something I need to worry about ^^'''
I've tried Xml with AS, but I realised that, that alone canot allow me to write the player's info into the xml file.
I'm not exactly an mySQL idiot...but I really have very(x2) rusty and limited knowledge of it. All the server topics confuses me and I've had no experience with Microsoft Access.

I'm a bit of a newbie with flash and Actionscript. I have been programming for a number of years now, but I have only been messing around with flash since CS4. I have CS5 now, and need a bit of help. I have a wireless device that I have made, I wish to make a flash program (potentially adapted to iPhone or Android) that sends and receives data (in the form of Word or Byte sized variables) from an IP address assigned to the device. Is this achievable?

I want to write and read cache in flash via AS2. I have two flash/swf files placed at same location. From 1st file, on a button click event, I want to write some variables/ values one by one into cache. Then proceeding to 2nd swf placed in another html, I want to read those variables one bye one.

What I'm trying to do is keep track of responses to several questions. In other words what I have is sort of like a quiz. Each question has a yes or no button and what I'd like to do is update a number in, say, an xml file in order to keep track of how many people clicked "Yes" and "No" and "Total". Any idea if there are any relatively simple tutorials that might explain how to do this? After the Flash file has been up a while, we want to see how a large number of people answered the questions and put up a chart.
I have a good bit of experience accessing xml files to drive a Flash file, but I haven't yet gone the other way where the Flash file communicates with an xml file and updates the xml itself. As always I will be forever grateful for any suggestions on how to learn this. I'm not finding much "out there" just looking on my own.

I'm trying to write to a simple txt file using flash and php. After several failed attempts I decided to brake the code down to it's bare minimum and build up from there, unfortunately even that didn't work.Here's my php code.
PHP Code:
<?php
$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file");
$stringData = "Testing[code]....
the file it's writing to (testFile.txt) has it's access set to 777 as does the php file.I point my browser to the php file but nothing gets written to the text file. I know the server is allowing php (at least on some level) because my php mail is working perfectly.

I need to build a simple database (3 elements total) using XML and make the swf interact with it.What I need is an interface that pops out if you've done a better score (better than the 3 saved in the XML).
Then you insert your name, send it with the proper button (or clear the field with the reset one) and then get a new classification in the txt field below dividing the players with their score. To do this, since I wasn't able to do it on my own, I've found a ready-script and this is it:

On load I want to read some attribute information including x, y coords for elements that will be positioned on the stage accordingly.
On moving elements to a new position I want the new coordinates to be written back to the XML file.
I understand AS can read the XML file OK but not write native. A php script is required to perform the write.

We are working on a 3rd party application build on Adobe Flash technology to render business dashboards.This application does'nt offer us to generate the whole code rather it's just a drag n drop of charts, text boxes etc components, and then mapping of data. After all of customizing, the application itself generates an SWF file finally.
What our requirement is we need to make our dashboard(a falsh file) to write a chunk of data, eneterd by user, back into our database by a user action, like a button click. (Access, MySQL, Oracle or any). Now our application offers the FSCOMMAND function call wherein we can enter the command name and args.
Now we need to use this FSCOMMAND function to write back to databases because we believe this is the only option with us within our app. What is the command to write back to a database, and then the arguments. Also, do we need to write any JAVA/VB script for that. Please be informed that our application itself generates the whole SWF file code..all HTML coding. {e.g as we include queryparam, "mapped data", using FSCOMMAND, i can see the whole code generated by the app, the HTML code, wherein I could see embedded Java Script with DO_FScommand statament carrying this queryparam command and args..etc.}
Kindly show us the way to acheive this crucial requirement of ours. We are looking for very elaborative answers as we have less expertise with scripts.

I was wondering so long that how can people analyze the trait of each file extension (of course open it in notepad is not readable) For example, I want to write a program that can read everything from .fla file like timeline, movie clips, position of each MCs or all the motion tween values. And get the image embeded in it. (I'm planning to use flash as IDE for another project.)
(The reason that I tried to read proprietary format is I want to utilize their awesome editor. What I actually want to do is, I want to make an iOS game with cocos2d. There is a code to move things around in cocos2d but there is no decent editor. So I'd like to use Flash as an editor, then convert the motion to objective-C cocos2D code by reading the .fla file.)

I'm about to implement
public function writeExternal( output:IDataOutput ):void {...}
public function readExternal( input:IDataInput ):void {...}
to make a set of object serializable.
Although I'm pretty sure, that I implemented all correctly, readExternal(..) at a certain point complains about too few data left to read:
RangeError: Error #2006: The supplied index is out of bounds.
at flash.filesystem::FileStream/readObject()
I wonder, if I have a circular object network like
A = { left -> B, right -> B }
B = { father -> A }
And I call
writeObject( a )
Will Flex serialize the hole object network and each object once and only one?
I did this:
Declared type annotations like this: [RemoteClass(alias="model.MyClass")]
Implemented parameter-free constructors
Declared all classes using implements IExternalizable
SharedObject's send() method is guaranteed to send each object once and only once.
Additional infos:
Reading and writing a ByteArray
Using Remote Object Components
IExternalizable interface

how to read from the database.as i said, that is only part of the job since it only shows how to read from the database, i also need to send to the database a string of about 7k (more or less 5000 to 700 bytes, in a single string)i would like to do that trough php, since it should use the same php session id. does anyone have references to this? (write to a databse from flash, if possible using php as middle layer)
