ActionScript 3.0 :: Flex Embedding An Amazon Associates Carousel?
Oct 12, 2010
I want to put an Amazon Associates Carousel widget in my flash game. That means loading an external swf. Here's my attempt:
Code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();[code]....
The only additional information I've been able to find is that the error happens in com.amazon.arsenal.loader::Preloader. It would be useful to know what object is null, or what line of code this occurs on (I have the decompiled source of widget.), but I have no idea how I would find that out.

I have an average carousel flash component I downloaded... It would be easy to embed into an html webpage but I need it in a flash webpage that I am building...I figured I could put the whole thing into a movie clip and stop on that frame and the carousel animation would work fine but all it does is loop my animation... Even with the "stop();" at the end... My skills are pretty basic in Actionscript...

I have a server side code written in java and client side code written in flex. As client makes a request roughly every 3 seconds to the server, then I'm pretty sure I'm running into scalability problems at some point.
As far as I can see, I can host the application either in Google Apps Engine or Amazon Cloud. As I understand Amazon offers a do-it-yourself approach and I have to set up and maintain the cluster myself, which I'm not really fond of so I'm inclined to use GAE, which promises virtually infinite scalability if one can conform to the limitations and restrictions of course.
One of the limitations is the number of requests at 500 per second (can request temporarily more by filling in a special form), which roughly translates to 1500 simultaneous users, each pinging after every 3 seconds to the server.
What bothers me is that I really don't know how big this thing can grow and 1500 players definitely doesn't seem like a lot so besides using Google Apps and perhaps AWS (unless it scales better with what I'm trying to do), what other options do I have, which wouldn't cost me a fortune?

I am currently pulling data from an s3 storage account. S3 has a flat file structure but gives the impression that the files are stored in directories. how do I convert this String[]
[
"/company_1/user_1/1.txt",
"/company_1/user_1/2.txt",
"/company_1/user_1/3.txt",
[code]....
I am using grails to render the data as JSON for a flex application using an Advanced Datagrid and need a tree like structure, as if you were browsing files on your desktop.

Our Flash web-based applications play lots of audio for narration and sound-effects. Some of our customers have firewall rules that block downloading of MP3 and other audio files. So, we need to wrap those MP3 files in SWFs. In the past, I've written JSFL scripts that automate the Flash IDE and walk through a complicated, fragile set of steps to embed MP3 files into FLAs and then publish those to SWFs. Now, Flex SDK provides the mxmlc compiler. I've mixed ANT into our workflow, and command-line and automated builds have been a joy. So, I want to make transcoding or wrapping of MP3s part of our build process. I've found Embedding Asset at Compile time in Pure AS3, but this will require that I write a script to generate a wrapper class AS file. Is there a cleaner way to wrap or transcode MP3 files into SWFs?

We use
[Embed(source="assets/styles/basic/my_skins.swf",symbol="preloader_3")]
private var PreloaderAnim:Class;
for embedding a movieclip from an swf file.
How can I do the same using a CSS file (which is loaded at runtime) and use it in my class?

There is a new way to embed fonts in CS5. So I've embeded a font in a CS5 flash file's library and gave it a linkage ID. I'd like to embed this font in an ActionScript project using the "[EMBED]" tag. I've tried the following code to embed the "Helvetica LT" font, but the textfield seemed to be unaffected.
[Embed(source="../fla/CS5FlashFile.swf", symbol="HelveticaLinkageID")]
private var _cHelvetica:Class;

Is there a way to create embedded "pure as3" swf fonts using compc (without the flex framework integration)? If I embed a font like this in my as3:
package fonts
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.Font;
[Code].....
which prevents me from using the embedded font in "pure as3" projects. Is there a way to get flex-free fonts using compc?

The issue I am having is creating an application with nearly every component skinned using CSS. The majority of the components are skinned using:Embed(source="file.png");method. The problem I am running into, is flex trying to compile all of the embedded assets into the final swf. As it stands now, my compiled swf stands around 16mb!@@ OUCH. It is a very large application, but not that big. Any ideas on how to load the assets into the application at run time, or on request maybe?

I've searched high and low for an answer and it might be a foolish endeavour but i'd like to be able to read fonts from a directory at runtime for use in an actionscript/flex app.Ive seen the answers on the web and all rely on putting fonts in external swfs and certainly rely on embed meta tags or styles when i'd like a local fonts directory to be able to be used, its not too user friendly asking a user to compile their own swfs to use the app.The only answer I can see is to have a server running mxmlc and creating .mxml files with embed tags every time a user wants to update their fonts and recompiling the app when needed but its a bit much.

We are working on a flex project where we want to balance two challengesa) want to ensure that there is minimal need to be connected to internet- so it can be used offline. This will be used in rural locations with flaky connectionsb) Reduce file size by only embedding those assets in compile mode as is requiredBroadly, the project will go down one of three flows in the module called, based on user choice- Path A, Path B and Path C, which will require image set-A, set-B & set-C respectively (based on settings in the module)We want to send over all images in Set-A or set-B or set-C right upfront in the module called, based on choice made in primary project, to minimize need for connectivity once accessed. At the same time I want to avoid sending all three sets and bloating up download size three times.

I have 2 images that are used hundreds of times throughout my application. Although they are only ~2.5 kilobytes each, they're multitude is causing the browser to load nearly 7 megs of data if reference them like this[code]...
Instead of having this issue, I would like to embed the image once, and then repeatedly reference the embedded object. I'm not exactly sure how to do this. From what I've read online, doing the following should work[code]...

I've been trying to get FXG to work in my Flex app, it works and renders fine but what I'm trying to accomplish is a sort of a gallery with data about the images in a database. I used to be able to use <s:Image source=/path/{variable_name}> but now I have to import the FXG files and can't use <s:Image> anymore. Here I can display a static FXG image.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="[URL]"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:fxg="assets.fxg.*"
tabBarVisible="false" title="{data.name}">

I'm working on an AS3 project with Flash builder 4. I'm trying to get fonts into it.i read somewhere that it's possible to get the fonts from a .swf. I'm currently loading my assets in at run time, is it possible for me to get my embeded fonts from that loaded .swf? or do they have to be embeded some other way?

I have a Flex 4 project that exists in a hybrid state of Flex/Flash AS3. I've declared a stylesheet in the base component of a Window:
<fx:Style source="styles/styles.css" />
And all of my Flex components can display this font. The stylesheet looks like this:
@font-face {
: url("../fonts/Whitney-Light-Pro.otf");
fontFamily: WhitneyLight;
[code].....
And the output I get is:
Fontarray length: 1
FONT 0:: name: WhitneyLight is embedded as type: embeddedCFF.

What's out there that lets you do this? Are there any OSS projects or maybe something a little more popular than this:[URL]? This does exactly what I'm suggesting (i.e. cuts out the need for Swing UI for the most part) but for a number of reasons I'd be interested in any better alternatives. alternatives would need to support the Flex SDK.

I use the images in the tooltips. Images are on the server. I'm using the code:
var tip1:String;
tip1 = "<img src='assets/images/yes.jpg' align='center' width='150' height='150' hspace='3' vspace='3'/>";
tip1 += 'some text';
yes.toolTip = tip1;
But many of images are more than 100 kb, then the image in the tooltip appear with some delay. Is it possible to embed all the pictures during loading swf, to appear at once with the text when the mouse over?

I'm trying to embed fonts in my app. All is mostly well but for the itemRenderers in my AdvancedDataGrid. Adobe's documentation claims that [code] however, don't mention anything for ADGs, and setting defaultDataGridItemRenderer to either FTEDataGridItemRenderer or FTEAdvancedDataGridItem Renderer doesn't seem to do the trick.
