ActionScript 2.0 :: Build An Uploader That Will Take Data Collected?
Jan 15, 2009
This is the situation: I am trying to build an uploader that will take data collected earlier in the form before the upload occurs and then rename the uploaded file with it. I've gotten the upload itself to work, but thus far I have no luck getting any sort of renaming to work, not even by PHP. I tried Loadvars to transfer the variables over and rename it during upload, yet it says "NO" and rejects the post variables when the upload occurs. I even tried loading the variables into an external file and transfering them back to the uploader via cookie, all at the same time. Again it says "NO!", and the file is uploaded as __"filename".jpg. This is my code thus far:

I would like to build a dynamic webdatabase.(One form that updates text and bit-maps.)I must use Microsoft ACCESS or mySQL.Is it possible and is there any video tutorials out there?I heard a lot of "tissling and tassling" that flash is not
well suited to work with databases.

I'm trying to learn how to build interactive data visualizations, and I think I want to go the Flash/Flex/ActionScript route instead of using Processing.The problem is, I've never understood what the difference between all three is, so I don't know which one I should be learning.It sounds like Flash is more for designers/non-programmers, Flex is more for programmers, and ActionScript is just the programming language used in Flash and Flex (i.e., Flash and Flex are to Actionscript as the iPhone SDK is to Objective C...?). Is this correct?If so, I'm a programmer, so it sounds like I'd want to go either the Flex or ActionScript route. What's the difference between picking up an ActionScript book vs. picking up a Flex book?

I have a server with some simple java objects running. I want to build the client with Flex and connect to the server data with BlazeDS. The problem is the Flash Builder is not generating the Classes correctly. Just the properties are being generated, the inheritance are not being generates.

I want to build a flash movie displaying data from an XML file from snow-forecast.com.The file is attached.
I realy do not have enough knowledge of XML.
The file contains data for 6 days forecast.
The structure is All days are in array <periods>
How can i read and parse data in a flash movie for each day? Just give me an example of the first two days _pdayname and the params _pmax _pmin for <max> <min> and <mid>

I just noticed a strange behaviour while looking at my application in the Flash Profiler. When I click a button in my TitleWindow then the TitleWindow doesn't get garbage collected after it is removed. I have no idea why that is happening.[code]...

I have checked and rechecked, and I do not know why these "buckets" aren't being killed when I run the reset menu function, a fresh set of eyes could really help.
Code:
package com.Views {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code]...
i'm sure there are a lot of problems, but the only one I care about is destroying those buckets. inside the buckets, I have a listener for "removed from stage", and that kills all the listeners, etc, inside the buckets.

there is a Class A, it has a timer which updates its x position periodically. So all the instance of Class A will update their own x position. There is another Class B which extends Class A and overrides the function which updates position to change y position and call the trace function.
Now what I do now is create two instance alpha1, alpha2 of Class A and other two instance beta1, beta2 of Class B.
- alpha1 is only instantiated, but not added to the stage.
- alpha2 is instantiated, and there after added to the stage.
- beta1 is only instantiated, but not added to the stage.
- beta2 is instantiated, and there after added to the stage.
- let say after few seconds, I remove alpha2 and beta2 from stage.
Now suppose the GC fires collection, who all would be collected ?

I have that function in the class:
private function fireItemCreated(data: ByteArray): void {
setTimeout(function(): void {
var event: ItemCreatedEvent = new ItemCreatedEvent(data);
dispatchEvent(event);
}, 1000);
}
This function called to dispatch item created event when image thumbnail created.But it delays event on some time to prevent user interface freezes. And I'm guessing what could be happen if garbage collector executes after fireItemCreated function call but before timer event. Does the closure will be removed or it stays until it will be executed?

I'm trying to set up a test that will tell me whether a variable exists in memory or not. I'm running into the problem of my nested function preserving the local variable it uses, called "shouldBeDead". Here's my best effort, which doesn't work for me because the "shouldBeDead" variable is still alive[code]...

I recently posted on here about tweening in alphas of thumbnails that I was adding to a movieclip. It seems that the tween is getting garbage collected because not all of the thumbs fade in all the way. I have the tween defined outside of the function, but it is tweening a loader that is created within the function. Could this cause the tween to get garbage collected? if so, how do I fix it?
Here is the pertinent code:
var thumbTween:Tween;
var my_thumb:Loader;
function thumbLoaded(e:Event):void{

In TFS 2010 build, I have a new build and I want to call an ant script that builds Flash. How do I call the ant script? Also How can I compile the Flash directly? I've seen the Power Tools and this question but it doesn't help me as we don't have TFS 2008. I can't find any documentation on how to use the power tools except the 1 sentence on the bottom of download page saying to create your build the old way and import it (which isn't very helpful). I've installed the power tools on the agent computer but I don't see any new options in the Toolbox when I'm designing the build flow.

I just started working with ant a few days ago. Right now I have a general buildall.xml which should call each project's build.xml. Because some projects depend on each other, I need to rebuild some other projects which depend on it. This isn't a problem--I'm just setting the depends property of the target. However, ant is always building the dependencies, even when the files haven't changed.Let's say project1 has no dependencies; project2 depends on project1; project3 depends on project1, 2; project4 depends on project1, 2, and 3; and so on.I could hack a solution which looks at project K, and checks if project 1 .. project K have updated files using uptodate. If so, then run the target. This is messy and appears unnecessary.
What is the cleanest way to implement this?EDIT: So I decided to just hack in a bunch of targets, "check_projectK" where it does the uptodate checks on all of its source files, its build file, and the build files of the 1 .. K-1 projects. Due to dependencies, this is always handled correctly. However, this is still a large amount of copy and paste for a large workspace.

I have had a few complications with syncing the notes coming down, then I realized tweens would be the best way to go, so I chose them.The problem is; the notes come down the screen. If there is any lag in performance, any note that is on the screen freezes on the spot, and the new notes come down, and stay in sync.This is telling me it's something to do with the tweens. The timeOuts I have set work fine for spawning notes at the right time, but the tweens are freezing on occasion, Im guessing because the timer for the tween keeps going, but flash does not notice it.Here is the code for adding the notes:
Code:
var myTween:Tween;
var timeWindow = 1;

Using FDT, when I have a debug configuration with several operations in the launcher chain and the final launcher opens in Flash Player, how can I retrieve the build output from the console once the build is complete and Flash player is running?
It seems that once Flash Player has started the console clears to make way for the application's trace output, but I need to be able to look back over the events and build times for each item in my launch chain while Flash Player is running. Is there a setting I can enable to either log my build output to a file or to preserve it in the console?
Edit: I know I can still read the info when building normally, this question is specifically for building with the debugger.

Consider the following segment of code:
[Code]...
Do not worry about the syntax of this code. Here is my concern - The loader object which is used to send the HTTP request and which has the onLoadComplete event registered to is not referenced from outside the loadSomeContent() function. Is there a possibility that the loader object will be garbage collected and loadCompleteHandler() will never be called?

I've got a custom component (quite complex so I can't post any code here, although that shouldn't matter), that I can add to a view. When the component is deleted from the view or the view is switched I call my own dispose method which removes remaining eventListeners and kills some references so that the component can eventually be nulled and collected by the GC.
All that works perfectly fine until I add a Spark TextInput to the MXML part of the component (it took me hours to find out what is preventing the component to be collected!), so I recon that the TextInput somehow automatically adds some eventListeners.
My question is what are these listeners, or is there anything else I haven't thought of?

I'm attempting to create a multiple image uploader (think Coppermine) where the user clicks a button in an SWF, selects a file or multiple files, and then these files are uploaded to a directory. I have a PHP script that handles the uploading a file, and my Flash file iterates over the files in the FileReferenceList and sends the file to this PHP script to upload. The directory path in the PHP script is correct, and permissions set to 777.
The contents of my ActionScript 3.0 class look like this:
package com.yourfightsite.imageupload {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[Code] .....
The three methods at the bottom of the class fire JavaScript functions in my HTML page that add the file names to a file queue widget, and update the percent value next to them, and finally mark them as complete. However, when I select files, they are added to the file queue widget as expected and then nothing. The files aren't uploaded, the files in the file queue widget aren't updated, and no errors are thrown, either in the console (I'm using Chrome) or Flash when publishing my movie.

What would be the best method to pass the name of a file that will be uploaded as the same page as the flash file I know I could have them upload it then manually type the name in a text input to load the image on button press but I need it to show up inside the flash without user typing. I attempted URLRequest/URLLoader to load the php and now im trying ExternalInterface.

I am making a file uploader but it is giving me this error: "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2039: Invalid remote URL protocol. The remote URL protocol must be HTTP or HTTPS."
but on a server it seems to work (the progress listener shows the files are being loaded [use the scrollbuttons or scroll over the text area]), until all is done and the files dont appear on the server.
Below is all my code. I hope someone can help me through this, it is really important atm. I've tried some tutorials and sources but can't find the error.

I've made a flash-uploader in action script 3 which have worked on a couple of sites. I recently implemented it in a new site and made some few changes. It started working but suddenly it stopped working... If i make a .html site on my local machine and test it (or run it in flash) the uploader works perfectly. But as soon i run it from my server, it wont upload?? How the hell can this happend? Sorry for my language but for me it seems very not-logical.. And let me again say, it worked for a start, and without any further changes it stopped worked on my new server.

Is there an open source Flash uploader that can handle files larger than 2 GB? ASP.net implementations like SlickUpload are not an option, and SWFUpload (and others that I've seen) do not handle files larger than 2 GB. Nor is requiring the user to have Java installed to run applets. This would be for both IE and Firefox.
I've seen a couple "large file transfer" sites that have a Flash uploader and claim to go past the 2GB limit (which is the limit for http uploads for most browsers) so I know it is technically possible.
