I have followed the tutorial on Shared Objects with possitive results, and have found answers in the forums, only thing is, as soon as I get my files on the server VERY strange things start happening. (Locally there is no problem) I have two files in the same folder (on the server and locally)
[Code]...
application.onPublish = function (client, p_stream){ var myInfo = SharedObject.get(p_stream.name); myInfo.setProperty("live", true);
I set the sharedobject using code above,now I can publish video,but so is not set(from admin console, "shared object" tab).
Does anyone knows why the output is "undefined"?:
mySo = SharedObject.getLocal("kookie");
myButton.onPress = function(){
mySo.data.nome = "dados de utilizador";

At the moment I'm developing something in which I need to have a server of some sort store and send Shared Objects. When I was looking into it the API said that you would use something like a flash media server. Well the student price for that is about 1300$ so I can't do that. Is there a way for me to create a server in actionscript using socket connections (or something). To send and receive shared objects? I haven't started on this yet I'm just looking ahead into what I'm going to need.
View 2 Repliesi just have known about shared object class , it is really so usefull,the problem is that : flash movie cannot save info. on the internet ,- it save it just on PC -e.g. if i wonna make some movie in my site that add No. "1" when any visitor open my site ( as a visitors counter) , i cannot do that with shared object class
View 2 RepliesAlright, so I have a projector application running, and an SWF on a server. The projector loads the SWF on the server.The projector will save all of the sharedobjects it creates in the local-host folder, whereas the swf on the server will store it in it's own folder "or example. I want to be able to have them both store shared objects in the same folder, so that they can interact with each other through shared objects. Even if I load the SWF from the projector, it still creates it's own folder.
I need to have this because it stores level data for a game I'm making, where all the levels are on the server, and you can download each one individually, and make your own levels, and upload them, so others can play. The data would be loaded from a swf on the server, and then create the S/O on the users computer. Then, the actual game would load this SO and then create the map, based on the data.
I'm working on AS3 on main timeline. I have 20 frame labels parte1 to parte20. On parte1 I have a preloader and SharedOject code. The preloader works fine. On parte8 I have a movie clip (whole_master), which contains three frame levels (g_level_1, g_level_22, and g_level_33). Each frame contains a level of a game. My sharedObject doesn't work.
Code:
//Saving data
var so=SharedObject.getLocal("learningGames", "/");
so.data.whole_master=whole_master;so.data.g_level_1=whole_master.g_level_1; so.data.g_level_22 =whole_master.g_level_22;so.data.g_level_33 =whole_master.g_level_33;
//testing if shared object exists

I need the Remote Shared Object functionality and wonder if Flash Media Streaming Server incorporates this functionality?
View 1 RepliesOne strange thing happened at application, connection to the fms server takes few milliseconds but shared object takes few second (more then 20) to connect.

I'm trying to make text chat application using shared object. I'm using api Shared.getRemote("so",m_nc,true); to make the data persistent. It makes the file with extension fso. I want to save the chat history in notepad for further reference, and also load that data as per requirement.

Basically trying to update a "userlist" shared object everytime someone connects.Administration console live log reads:"Sending error message: ...main.asc: line 12: TypeError: this.usersSO has no properties"
I'm connected ok. Here's the server code Doesn't like "usersSO.setProperty()" call:
application.onAppStart = function(){ this.uniqueID=1; this.users = new Object(); this.usersSo = SharedObject.get("userlist", false); }

I am using FMS3 and Flash CS3 (actionscript2) in a Flash based whiteboard application. Multiple users can join this whiteboard. I want to save chat text and drawing in same sequence as live time. I am using persistant remote shared object to save these data. But when i try to replay these data its not showing in same squence as live . I am generating unique slot for chat and drawing but still same error occuring.
View 8 RepliesI'm having trouble connecting to a remote persistent shared object. When I run from the Flash authoring environment it works. But when I run it from a browser it doesn't. The code attaches an event listener to the sync event, and then calls so.connect(nc).
As mentioned - it works inside Flash authoring only. In both cases the connection to the server is successful. I also tried setting client.readAccess to "/" in the application.onConnect function of the server-side code - but it doesn't help. (Everything was written by me including the server-side application code. I have full control and access to the server).
Also, I can see the remote object exists on the server in the admin console.And as mentioned, when running inside Flash CS5 - the onsync gets triggered after connecting to the shared object.But, the same code under a browser - doesn't trigger the onsync.The SharedObject.getRemote method on the client side returns an object on both occasions.
Does anyone knows why the output is "undefined"?:
mySo = SharedObject.getLocal("kookie");
myButton.onPress = function(){
mySo.data.nome = "dados de utilizador";
mySo.flush();
trace(mySo.nome);
}
I created a very simple experiment to attempt to access the same shared object in Flash Player and AIR.
A Flash SWF creates a local shared object.
A AIR application (being tested from CS3 or installed) opens the same shared object.
The data does not persist. Is this theoretically possible?
Medium-load chat server using Shared Objects segfaults every few hours. Runtime size has been increased to 30MB (this saves it from crashing every 10 minutes). I have the core dump but don't understand what it means.
View 9 RepliesI'm using a loader for people to use to upload their own images for a background, and I want it to remember the image the next time they come to the page, so is there any way to save the loader data in a shared object? I haven't tried just using something like
Code:
sharedObject.data.dataName=loader
because I assume it doesn't work that way.
I wanted to separate my embedded fonts to save filesize, so i've put them into sharedLib.SWF, and then preloaded sharedLib.SWF into flash using another SWF so that i could use these fonts further in multiple FLAs, without consuming additional bandwidth. I followed one tutorial, and checked out many different ones, to see if this issue occured to somebody else too. I had no luck finding the solution. Furthermore, i want to embed these fonts into AS-created textfields using AS.[code]I tried to create 1 TF manually, and placed it on the Stage, setting its display text to one of the embedded texts (Tahoma*). This actually worked! And one more strange thing happened.. Three of those TFs created using actionsctript, which were before blank, were NOW also filled with correct embedded text, EXCEPT one textfield which used Tahoma text non-bold, non-italic [!?]. Now how does this happen, and why the exception, i wonder.

Can shared objects even store an array of objects properly. It is the same with the persistanceManager I believe.
Just wondering if you can use more than one shared object, as my AS code doesn't act as i would think

Can I use Flash Shared Object to pass information between two different SWF files on two different pages within the same website?I know it can if the SWF files are the same. But what if they are different Flash object with different SWF files?

Obviously the LSO couldn't be saved on the CD itself - would it be able to save the LSO somewhere on the users hard drive?
I'm trying to use the Shared Library process for the first time with audio files and I'm not sure why it's not working. I've followed both processes from here:[URL] and have a library file called libTestAudio.swf with all the audio files set up right (see Flash file here [URL] My question is should the testAudio.swf ever grow in file size? When it has no content it is at 4Kb but when it has the shared library file added to the timeline it becomes 8Kb. Now this might sound small but I've tried this with much longer pieces of audio and the file size does get bigger for testAudio.swf . I was thinking that only the libTestAudio.swf file would increase in file size and testAudio.swf would remain at it's 4Kb size. Am i wrong there?
View 0 RepliesI made a shared object whiteboard but I have a stupid problem with removing objects. This is function to clear shared object :

I was thinking if there was a way to remove the shared object pop up from popping up lol?Its because Im making a game where when the player saves the pop up comes up over a 100 times and it's really frustrating, so I was thinking if you could remove the pop up entirely by using actionscript?I've found a script that shows the popup:System.showSettings(1);So is there a way to reverse this script? like System.hideSettings(1); ?
View 1 RepliesI have a client who has a video that is to only play once when a user visits. So I created a shared object to create a param that the video has been played. It works perfect locally and on my live test site. However when the client posts it on his ning website in the header it doesn't work. The strange thing is that live and locally on my server you can see the shared object and it's size through the advanced tab in Flash's privacy settings.
View 7 RepliesI have a gane that uses shared object and keeps note of highscores and users names. So - if that is possible then I can set up teaching courses on standalone pcs can't I? ie: Databses I have in access can go in XML and the recording of position in course and results of tests can also be recorded using Shared object.Is that a good way of going about things OR should the whole thing go over to AIR and its sqlite system?
View 3 RepliesI have 2 ways of accessing info in my course files (SWFs): text-only and audio playback. I'd like to use shared object to store the user preference so it remembers the setting when navigating between screens. It stores info file but each file creates its own shared object.
for example:
<path to the swf>page1.swfcoursename.sol
<path to the swf>page2.swfcoursename.sol
<path to the swf>page3.swfcoursename.sol
Since it writes and reads the SOL file of its own folder, the user setting isn't remembered when switching pages.
