I have a string, I am compressing it with bytearray and save it to a file. In other application I am loading it and when I try to uncompress it, it's give me an error. How can I convert a compressed string in to bytearray type to be able to convert it? The code for compression:
var b:ByteArray = new ByteArray();b.writeMultiByte(t,"iso-8859-1")b.compress();
I need to take a string and convert it to a bytearray. such that the return is of type ByteArray. I thought writeUTFBytes(String) would work cept that returns type Void.Im not seeing anything in the docs about returning a bytearray

i have a string which contains all binary data. the binary data represents a custom object in my application.
i want to convert all the data inside the string into binary format and store it in a ByteArray. then I want to read the object from the ByteArray using readObject.
My program saves text files, which contain various text, some of which is a string representation of a ByteArray. It does this by using the toString() method of the flash.utils.ByteArray class, which I assume converts a ByteArray (for example, 13x$) into its string representation "13x$". So how do you reverse the process, and turn the string ("13x$") into a ByteArray (13x$)? Even if it's not that simple, I just need to have the ByteArray, put something in a text file, and extract from it the same ByteArray.
View 1 RepliesDoes the uncompress method of ByteArray only supports level 3 compressed streams? Because I have a valid zlib compressed file but compressed in level 2, and Flash always throws me the 2058 error message.
I've also tried using the DefaultCompressionAlgorithm class for AIR with its two compression methods, but with no success.
Doing some quick tests with python using the same file gets uncompressed with no problems.

View 4 RepliesI want to convert a ByteArray wich contains a .flv file read through a socket connection to a video playable object and play it, or attach it somehow to the netstrem as its source. Why this ? I'm trying to write an app using AS 3.0 that connects two swf clients to each other directly without a server (after they know of each other) and allow them to exchange video sequences. So the reverse way video -> bytearray -> network -> reciever ->video would be of interest aswell.

Just to clear this up ByteArray Need to Place into Bitmap and then you can add to the movie Clip right?

how to convert a file I have on my server (pdf/excel/ppt) to a ByteArray. The reason I want to do this is to display the dialogue open/save as to the user and I must set the Content-Type to octet-stream. The dialogue shows fine with just navigateToURL() but for pdf's it is the user's local browser setting. For a URLRequest I must set the data as a ByteArray. I'm trying to use the code located here:

But I keep getting an "Error #2030: End of file was encountered." This is (probably) because the class I'm serializing is too big for the "String" object type in AS3. Is there a limitless object for storing an array of characters (or better yet binary), or am I going to have to make my own class? (like one with an array of strings)
is there any way to convert animated movieClip to byteArray and save it as swf or flv or any video extension on the computer??
I tried writeObject but it doesn't work !!
I have an array of objects. Each object has 3 integer fields and 2 binary fields.I've utf encoded the binary data and json encoded the array & sent it to Flex client side.On the client side, decoding data, I've got a String representing the binary data (utf decoded).Now, how can I convert this String to ByteArray? Or how can I read each byte of the String?
View 1 RepliesI've been asked to implement and MD5 hasher ActionScript-3 and as I was in the middle of debugging how I formatted my input I came across a problem. When I try and output the ByteArray as a binary string using .toString(2), the toString(2) method will perform some short cuts that alter how the binary should look.
For Example
var bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
bytes.endian = Endian.LITTLE_ENDIAN;
bytes.writeUTFBytes("a");
bytes.writeByte(0x0);
var t1:String = bytes[0].toString(2); // is 1100001 when it should be 01100001
var t2:String = bytes[1].toString(2); // is 0 when it should be 00000000
so I guess my question is, might there a way to output a binary String from a ByteArray that will always shows each byte as a 8 bit block?
What is the simpliest way to find an occurance of some sequance of bytes (string) in a long byte array?
UPD: I tried to do
my_byte_array.toString().indexOf(needle_string);
the problem is that in flash/air string consist of utf8 characters, so indexOf will return value different from offset of "string" in a byte array (actually it's zip archive)
