ActionScript 2.0 :: Way To Output Serial Information From Flash
Sep 27, 2008
I'm trying to find out if there is a way to output serial information from flash. For instance, I have a serial port (Can also be USB) device with eight relay switches, each one triggered by a few bits and bytes correlating to the serial pins. I was wondering if the print function in flash could be forced to output specific signals.
In a project that I'm working on, I have to be able to read input data from a serial port. The input data will be very simplistic in nature. I'm guessing more like a on/off, yes/no, true/false style of operation.I have found some examples in other languages, but nothing in AS3 or AS2. Could anyone send any sample code or a link to a tutorial that gives me some lead way on this? Which approach is better, going with a Flash projector piece, or building it in AIR? The final piece will be on a PC based system.
I am trying to save information that I have displaying in my output panel to a .txt fille. I have tried this tutorial here: [URL] but it is not working for me.
I have the output panel displaying information such as:
PHP Code:
[URL]
I need to somehow save this information to a text file so I can forward it onto my email. Or if anyone knows a way to forward information from the output panel to your email
WHen I was learning AS2, it seemed incredibly easy to double it with PHP, but I am having a pretty hard time with AS3.Basically, all I need to do is do the same kind of thing that loadVars could in AS2. Just need to send a few pieces of POST information, and then load up the output of the script.I found this piece of code on the internet:
ActionScript Code: var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.mydomain.com/feed/myfeed?query=youlike&start=34");[code].........
But it doesn't work (when I replace the url with my URL, of course.)
im trying to output my database information in a text input field in flex by using remoteObject(cfc). The information is being provided by a database using a query and an array collection. I'm just unsure how i go about taking the queried array collection information and display it into TextInput Fields.
I'm kinda noobish when it comes to getting information from XML information sent to my flash file from the socket server. OK so for example the server sends me this:
[Code]...
I want to get the name of the user and the X and Y position! Is there a way I can get this information without a load of fuss from functions and other junk remember im kinda noobish.
I want to build a program built around my pc specs. Is there a way to access such information as how much ram I have or how much cpu usage is being consumed, etc.?
I'm using action script 3.0 compiling the code to flash 10 how to get hard disk serial number with action script?I want to get this info without any security requirement. Is there a way to do it?
I recently bought a new machine and tried to put my Flash 8 software onto it. The serial number was fine, but it requested the serial number of the software I upgraded from, which I no longer have (MX, I think it was. I threw it out ages ago thinking I didn't need it ). I can't even remember what email address my macromedia/adobe account was under, it might even be under an email address for a domain I no longer have.
I do still have the software installed on my old PC. Is there anyway I can find out the serial number of the MX I upgraded from off of the Flash 8 on there? Or it is a lost cause?
I recently purchased a macbook pro from eBay which had Flash CS4 already installed on it, but which didn't come with the original documentation or CDs that would have had the serial number. The seller said he would send along the appropriate numbers when he tracked them down, but he never got back to me again. I'd like to upgrade to Flash CS5 now, so is there any way I can find the serial number through the software itself? I've seen similar threads to this one elsewhere in the forums and the most promising answers have involved people locating truncated numbers in the software and asking Adobe to decrypt them. Unfortunately, I can't even find these truncated numbers...
Here's a little script i wrote to check for a serial code to a xml file, and allow the user to use the flash document. this code seems pretty useless, but in all reality you can sell you flash document, with having users to input a serial code in order to use the flash document.
which might allow flash developers to make money on such a pointless project. eg. sell games, as a (.exe, or a .app) file, or make then buy a serial online an play it online. or sell very useful programs, for real money, and don't have to worry about people using it for free.
[Code]...
NOTE: i am not responsible for any lost of anything due to this actionscript code that you have choose to use at your own lost, of hackers, cheating you to use your flash document for free.
i need to convert a given number to a date via function...
what i mean is lets say i give a number 8 to a function and it returns the correct date from 8 days from today(a. la. 29/12/20012). as that seems simple enough i also need it to work when the number is 2000 with correct month etc..
Soon we will get a FMS license to run some web games on our websites. The FMS server will be on a dedicated server. We need to have 2 machines like that. the second is a rescue server which will be used in case of trouble with the first one. Here is my question: Can we use one seruial number for these two machines, knowing that only one of those will run (master server OR rescue server)
I have a number like this 22536325214589 and I want to separate it by 4 digits and show in separated input textfields like serial number input on applications and if user try to change it skip to next field while typing And also I can return number again into one variable.
I have a datagrid. I add a row to the datagrid using an ADD button. Once I add, I sort the datagrid based on a column. I also provide the serial numbers i.e. row numbers as first column to the datagrid. But, the serial number function does not apply after sorting. Hence, a new row added for e.g. row 5, based on sorting should be row 1, the serial number displayed is still row 5. The UI looks bad as numbers are not in correct order. the code is:[code]
I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?
I have a simple html page witha flash button. Upon clicking on the button, I would like to retrieve certain information from the js in the html (a URL for example) and execute it from the flash button.
In my flash application, I want to have information about the system the flash object is running on.Is there an object which handles this?My application runs in a browser mostly, so I also want to know the browser in which the application is running.Can I also access this directly from within the flash player or do I need to communicate with javascript then?
i want to make flash programs that send information to the web server that cannot be revealed by the user. of course the user will be able to see that HTTP request that is being sent, but i want to encrypt the data before transferring it. what's the best method to achieve that ?
i would build an app to take the serial number of hard disk of an other hardware serial number (hard disk, cpu MB). Do you know if this is possible with adobe air, silverlight or other similar technology?
I am now using FancyUpload to make an upload tool for my website, for the video module, so user can upload their video in FLV format with limited size and time
With the limited size i can handle it, but with the time . I dont know how to know the total length of FLV file
I'm doing some crawling with Python, and would like to be able to identify (however mperfectly) the flash I come across - is it a video, an ad, a game, or whatever.I assume I would have to decompile the swf, which seems doable. But what sort of processing would I do with the decompiled Actionscript to figure out what it's purpose is?
