ActionScript 3.0 :: Error Handling With XML Loading
Jun 29, 2009
I'm asking many questions these days but its really urgent
I am doing an application to load xml file into data grid and everything is done now. The only thing left is that i wanna make sure that if the xml file isn't there, the user will not have a runtime error.I have the following code to load the file.
var myXML:XML = new XML();var XML_URL:String = "questions.xml";
var myXMLURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(XML_URL);var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(myXMLURL);
myLoader.addEventListener("complete", xmlLoaded);
i tried many ways i found on the net using try and catch but didnt work. Anyone can write me the peice of code to hande this error if the file is not there??

i am currently trying to learn ZendAMF, but i have a hard time troubleshooting which makes learning it quite hard. Is there a way to make the PHP file throw an exception that gets traced as an error message in AS3 (not Flex), the only error i seem to be able to get is "Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetConnection.Call.Failed", but it tells me jack ****.
i have gotten ZendAMF working, i just want to know how i can make error handling better, so that as an example can use PHP to tell flash that no results were found, or that the typed text was invalid. Is it better to use AS3 to check if the field was filled properly?

How do you communicate an error to the web service consumer ?
For example, my web service has a function to insert employee into db.Suppose while inserting the data , the database gave an error,what should be the best way to inform the user about the error.
One way is to depict it through the return value of the web service method but what to do when the function is supposed to return a complex object like employee when there is no error ,and will send an error string when there is an error ?

I'm working on a game, that loads up external text files to create maps. There is a error if the player moves out of bounds, and there is no map to load. All I need is a sort of check to see if the text file actually exists, before loading it

I'm trying to use the new(ish) AS3 global error handling class. I am trying to use it within a Flex mxml application. I can't get it to work at all. Below is an entire program that shows the problem. I set this to use Flash Player 10.2 and compiled with the Flex 4.5 SDK. I've tried using Flex SDK 4.0 and 4.5 but I get the error in either case. I must be missing something obvious here. This is a normal Flex SWF file that will be shown on a web page. Assuming I could import the UncaughtErrorEvent, I would then do something like this to setup the event handler:

There is a file (php script) stored remotely on the server and I want to read it into flash using AS3.0's URLLoader. However, if I unplug my cable just before reading the file, and attempt to read the file, I want to capture an Error event in some error handler, which would mean "internet connection is down, file can not be accessed". I am reading the AS3.0 documentation now for 2 hours already (mainly: "Handling asynchronous errors in an application" and "Events of URLLoader class"), but I didn't stumble across an example of how to catch an Error event of the URLLoader object when reading a remote file from the server. However I took all possible events I could find (even those which are not necessary at all), and tested them in the following code:
Code:
public function URLLoaderTest( ) {
_loader = new URLLoader( ); // _loader is private var of this class
configureListeners(_loader);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("url_with_php_script");
_loader.load(request);
[Code] .....
This code traces tons of data, when executed with internet connection up:
Code:
openHandler: [Event type="open" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2]
progressHandler loaded:10 total: 30
httpStatusHandler: [HTTPStatusEvent type="httpStatus" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 status=0]
completeHandler data: 1165428133
but it traces NOTHING (?!),
If the connection is down (whether closed by firewall, or cable-unplugged). So that basically means, none of the above events is fired, none of them takes care of the errorHandling in case of no-internet-connection (or if for some reason we can't reach the server atm). Any ErrorEvent i can use to catch such (connection down) Error Event? Or do I have to use Timer class instead to check wether the server responded in some time or not? I would like to leave this as the last option.

I have three movieclips at the top of my page which contain text fields. When the swf first loads, the xml will load and fill all three of those movie clips with the appropriate <name> data from the xml. When one of the names are clicked, the corresponding fields needs to populate data from the xml (name, title, description, image). When another movieclip is clicked, that previous data needs to be removed, then filled with the new data. I've attached my fla and xml file incase none of that makes sense, but here is my code so far:
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.Event;
//Alignement

however, i can't catch the security error. a popup window appears with a description of the error and my errorHandler function is never called.

Is there a way to handle errors and exceptions in AS3 as one would do so using `set_error_handler` and `set_exception_handler` in PHP?

For a client, I am working on a project where a live RTMP stream is published to an Adobe FMS 3.5.6 server from a java application, using Red5 0.9.1 RTMPClient code. This works fine, until the timestamp becomes higher than 0xFFFFFF after 4.6 hours, and the RTMP extended timestamp field starts being used. I have already found: when the extended timestamp was written after the header, the last 4 bytes of the data were being cut off. I have fixed this locally, and now the data being sent seems to me to be conformant to the spec. However, FMS still throws an error message in the core log and then kills the connection from the Red5 client. Here is the error message:

I am facing a problem while loading an swf into an mxml application. I have loaded a swf file into my flex application using SWFLoader as below<mx:SWFLoader id="s1" source="dummy.swf" /> This SWF is created using Macromedia Flash 8 instead of Flex. I want to control this externally loaded swf.I am exposing an interface created to control this swf! What i am doing is using System Manager class as follows: public var mySWF:SystemManager;private function initApp():void {mySWF = SystemManager(myLoader.content);} However i am getting the following error: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::AVM1Movie@206ed41 to mx.managers.SystemManager.
Is there any solution to this?

I am busy on my website with AS3. In one of the pages, I call a swf. In the called swf, by clicking a button, another swf (a movie player) is called. Now, when I publish it in Flash, it works well, but when I upload it on my host, the first and then the second swf are uploaded, but the second one doesn't bring the movie on its screen an I see only its skin.I have tried Security.allowDomain("url..."), but as I said, it works only when I publish it in Flash on my computer.

I'm working on improving the media player for my portfolio (www.robin.astedt.name) and I've run into a wall..
The problem I get is that I can play songs and pause them and resume etc, but when I want to select another song and play it I get an error. It works if I initiate the Sound (s) and SoundChannel (sc) variables in the musicPlay(); function but then I can't pause because I need it to be initiated twice that way which ofcourse also gives me an error.
Here's the error I get when I play another song:
Code:
Error: Error #2037: Functions called in incorrect sequence, or earlier call was unsuccessful.

I am trying to load a sound in an mp3 player based on the selection of a user whohas the .swf embedded in a web page. The first time the user makes a selectionthe selection loads with no problem. But if the user stops the sound or lets it playto the end and starts it again, I have to be careful not to callsound.load(URLRequest)again.If the user has chosen another selection to listen to, then load() has to be called again.The question is:how do I unload the sound Obj so another mp3 file can be loaded into it and played?I would think that load(another URLRequest) would overwrite the first and not complain.( a deeper question is where is the sound file stored, by the browser -- in the case ofhtml embed-- or does the Flash plugin maintain its own cache?)

I've got a few container SWF's that I"m trying to load a navigation and a content area into. Very simple, nothing fancy about the code -
ActionScript Code:
var bodyLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var bodyRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("./sub/games.swf");
[Code]....
And when I run it, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
But the confusing thing is that I saved this from the same file that works PERFECTLY with the './sub/intro.swf' file, throwing no errors ... all I did is change the file name.

I have a main class in which I load a StageElements class. the StageElements class has the 6 objects. when I take out one of the objects it loads fine. but I put it back and it tells me:
Code:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

when addChild for 5 different objects they load fine onto the stage when I publish. but then I add a 6th object and it tells me that error. this has been driving me bonkers all day!
PS: each of the children work because they all work independently.
