View 3 RepliesI've installed developer version of Flash Media Server 4.5 and trying to get remote object, but no matter how I call my object all i get is this error .I've rad configuration guide and it told me that I should set StorageDir for shared objects, enable RPC (<RPC enabled="true">) and allow shared object (<Allow>users</Allow> in <RPC> - <SharedObject> tags)
View 1 RepliesAfter spending a whole week on this,which most likely will turn out to be very simple, I have an xml file (with over 1300 cNodes) that is set up like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<rNode>
<cNode theWord="A" theSynonym="A" theMeaning="A" theExample="A" />
[Code].....
What I am trying to do is to create an array (arr =[]) that hold only the cNodes chosen in the "saveText" .. in other words the cNodes assigned the value var = 1 in the SO file.
Is this easier done as a temporary array or as second SO file.
what is the maximum size of SharedObject file?
View 2 RepliesI've set up a shared object using user_so.data.flashVar = value.This works fine, but as it is being used to store details for saved games, users could easily edit their saved games to cheat their way through the game. Is there any way to check if a shared object has been altered outside of Flash, or are there any other methods of saving files in AS2 that I'm unaware of?
View 4 RepliesI have attempted to create a save file using sharedObject but it doesn't work. I don't get any errors it just doesn't seem to save when I press the save button. In the main frame I have:
Code:
user_so = SharedObject.getLocal("user");
if(user_so.data.tclock != undefined) {
clock_txt.text = user_so.data.tclock;
gregism_txt.text = user_so.data.gregism;
} else {
gregism = 0
clock = -1
}
In the save button movie clip I have:
Code:
on(release) {
user_so.data.tclock = _root.clock_txt.text;
user_so.data.gregism = _root.gregism_txt.text;
user_so.flush()
}
I just learned how to use sharedobjects few week ago. Is it possible for Flash_A to detect Flash_B's sharedobject file?

Currently, I do serialize my model object to the SharedObject instance:
try {
var mySo:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("sig");
mySo.clear();[code]....
Likewise, I load the saved model using the SharedObject instance. Works great.Ultimately, I'd like to serialize it to a file - which fails. Here is how:
var fp: File = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
fp = fp.resolvePath( PREFS_FILENAME );
var _prefsStream:FileStream;[code]....
The complementing read operation suddenly breaks and reports missing bytes.In fact, I can't image how FileStream / _model.writeExternal() is able to serialize, since it needs to somehow know, that a new serialization operation is about to start. If it doesn't know, it won't be able to determine, which object instances are left to serialize.Thus, I image that my concept is completely wrong or I missed how to initialize the serialization operation.I'd be happy to read the raw ByteArray from the shared object and write it to a file. Unfortunately, I didn't find a method to retrieve from a SharedObject a ByteArray of a certain property, in my case mySo.data.model.My question is loosely related to this one: Why does delete( DictionaryInstance[ key ] ); fail?
Gives me this error:
Error: Error #2134: Cannot create SharedObject.

I have searched all of the engines to find out why my SharedObject code is not working. It works when I publish from flash but not when live? I have this code in the first frame and the movie starts on the second. I only want the user to have to view the swf every other time they land on the page containing the movie. I am using AS2.

I have a slideshow that everytime you press a button show a new slide. Every slide is an external swf's that is being loaded in to the main swf. Inside every external swf there is a button that redirects you to another web page.What i would like to do is use SharedObject (or something like it) to remember wich external swf that was last shown when the user pressed the button redirecting them to an other page.How do i set the SharedObject in the external swf and then read it from the main swf?
View 1 RepliesAccording to the AS3 API the 'name' parameter in the 'getlocal' method is actually the name of the object. I have a bit of diffculty understanding this. Have alook at the following code:

If I were to access the attributes or methods of the shared object, can I use the 'name' instead of the variable, since the name is the 'name of the shared object'?
If the following code were used:

Why am I getting this error, if 'UserName' is the name of the shared object, than why can't I use it to refer to it's methods and other attributes? What is the meaning of it being a 'name' than?
I am working on a project that uses SharedObject and I have a question. I've made a button that downloads a flash screensaver and at the same time also creates a SharedObject which stores a specific id for each screensaver being downloaded. When later the screensaver is installed and run, it should get the SharedObject and read the id from it. When tested locally it works perfect since both the buttons´ and the screensavers´Sharedobject are stored in the same localPath. But when the button is online and the screensaver is local the SharedObject paths don't match.
Is there a way to solve this and make the local screensaver swf read the SharedObject from the same path as the online download button has stored it's SharedObject in?
This is the relevant code in both my swfs:
var _mySo:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("name", "/");
If this won't work, does anybody have another solution to my remote to local screensaver thingy??

got my code working, and all information i enter in to my sharedObjects is working correctly as it should but isn't saving so when I close and then re-open the flash file the data isn't there? Admittedly I'm new to sharedObjects I'm using the [.data.] when entering info and then [.flush()] at the end of the function - is there anything I've missed?
View 5 Repliesthis is just a simple question. Is it possible to set a sharedObject in a swf (say from www.A.com) , and then read that sharedObject from www.B.com , or even through the desktop (if the swf is playing directly on the desktop) ?

View 4 RepliesI am actually trying to add user's input name into a sharedobject.
for example: This is code from frame44 and the movie loops back to frame 1 after students input other minor data.
var newstudent:String = NewFishInput.text;
var so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("studentlist");
so.data.name = newstudent;
so.flush();
The code that i have is there. However, i can't figure out how do i add additional instance of newstudent after the movie loops back to frame 1 and play til frame 44, prompting another student to add in his name....
This is my flow chart for the project:
Frame 1;
1. User enter in a textinput named "studentname"
2. username is stored in a sharedobject (studentlist)
3. Show data of what previous students entered by evoking studentlist
Frame 2:
3. Current user enter other details, then movie loops back to Frame 1..
How do i store the a list of all students who entered their names in studentlist?
I created a movie, which is some form of a a code generator. In that movie i save a a generated code using sharedobject.
(code in code generator movie)
var myaccess:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("Lesson1");
myaccess.data.mycode = pass.text;
myaccess.flush();
Here is my problem, i want to use this created sharedobject on another, separate movie clip, is that possible?Or are sharedobjects just work on their original movie clips?
(code in separate movie)
var myaccess2:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("Lesson1"); // declared a variable for holding the data from
sharedobject to see if it will load the data
txt.text = myaccess2.data.mycode // Load failed, txt.text displays undefined
i tried to learn about SharedObjects from here: [URL] ...=00001504.html but i dont really get it In a code like this:

so.flush();
which variable is actually flushed, the userHighScore or highScore? and how to use the shared objects on boolean variables?

Is there a way to set a (large) maximum size for SharedObject on my domain so that I can ask the user to allocate a size greater than 100k one time and not need to ask again, even if data is added?
