I'm using Flex Builder 3 to build what will be a fairly large project. I'm suffering from modules stepping on each other and a conflict between application/module. My structure looks something like the following:

I've refactored a whole project, splitting the main FLA file into 1 main FLA file and 10+ asset FLA files. Each asset FLA file main stage is empty and has no Document Class associated. Instead, each asset file's library contains a MovieClip linked to an .as class. The loader is first added to the stage, then is told to start to downloading the 10 asset SWF files.
When the download is completed, my application starts instancing the class coming from the asset files. Now, the problem is the following : when I try to access a stage instance from a downloaded clip (for example, a textfield that has been drag&dropped and named via the Flash IDE) , I encounter the #1009 error, saying the stage instance is null...

I have a main swf that is a container for various flash games. I want this "console" to be in a different applicationDomain as the games to avoid class/function naming problems. As I understand, the default behaviour allows loader and loadee to exchange information. How do I make sure that classes for the console doesn't interfere with the games?
View 3 RepliesWhen load and SWF into another, the loader SWF can get definitions in the loaded SWF using ApplicationDomain.getDefinition(name:String) in example:
package
{
// ... imports
public class SWFLoader extends Sprite
[code]....
how can I get ALL the definitions and not just ONE of them?
I have been developing two seperate flash projects and the time has come for them to merge. To do this i have decided that, rather than try to mash the code together, i will simply use a loader to load and unload the second SWF as needed. My problem is that the SWF to be loaded uses:
Code:
var className:String = Entities[No];
var libraryDomain:ApplicationDomain = stage.loaderInfo.applicationDomain;
if (libraryDomain.hasDefinition(className)) {
var MyClass:Class = libraryDomain.getDefinition(className) as Class;
item = new MyClass();
[Code]...
This works fine seperately, but when the SWF is embedded into the parent SWF it seems to use the parent's library rather than its own. (if i put an item in the parents library it can load it, otherwise it throws an error). Is there any way to keep the child SWF using its own library? and if not, any other way to do this?
The current implementation of the Flash Player ApplicationDomain with regards to override class definition seems like a giant security flaw to me.A parent SWF has complete control over what child SWF they want to load and add to its ApplicationDomain. It stands to reason that if the parent trust the child SWF enough to load the file, it should also trust the class definition defined by the child SWF and use those definitions.
In contrast, a child SWF has no control over where it is being loaded into, or if it want to be loaded into another SWF at all. Therefore, there is no reason for the child SWF to trust the class definitions defined by the parent SWF.I recommend changing the current implementation of the ApplicationDomain and allowing a child SWF to override any conflicting class definition in the parent's ApplicationDomain.
How to access a public method in the swf loaded in a new ApplicationDomain?
ActionScript Code:
var appDomainA:ApplicationDomain = new ApplicationDomain();
*
var contextA:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(false, appDomainA);
var loaderA:Loader = new Loader();
loaderA.load(new URLRequest("application2.swf"), contextA)
I want to access a public method in application2.swf from the main swf that loaded it.
I'm accessing the classes from an externally loaded SWF so that I can "skin" SWF applications at runtime. Everything works fine but I'd like to make it as dynamic as possible and allow developers to access all the class definitions in a loaded SWF without having the FLA file or a list of their names.
[Code]....
I know I can use ApplicationDomain to access child class.Strictly, likewise, can I done it without adding child swf to stage?
View 1 RepliesI have made a Flash app in which there is an class called "MyGame.Person" which has multiple subclasses "MyGame.PoliceMan", "MyGame.FireMan", "MyGame.Doctor" etc. "MyGame.Person" is defined in the main .fla file, but the other classes are each defined in separate .fla files. I have split each into its own .swf file so that I can extend the game without having to reissue the main .swf file.I then use a Loader to download each .swf file and call
var assetClass:Class = myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition(assetClass Name) as Class;
to extract the class from the downloaded swf file. So if assetClassName is

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to load a swf compiled by the Flex SDK into a swf exported by the Flash IDE and instantiate the assets by way of getDefinition(). Normally this works fine with assets exported from the Flash IDE then loaded into another swf also from Flash IDE.This is how I could normally do this using only the Flash IDE:Loader - > Using same ApplicationDomain - > getDefinition(class)Now, using the 'Test.as' compiled from Flex SDK using the [Embed] metadata tag:Loader - > Using same ApplicationDomain - > getDefinition("Test_" + class)The problem is I'd rather not have to keep track of the asset libraries loaded to prefix the class name I'd like to get (('Test_" + class) vs (class)). Is there any way of doing this without referencing the library the class is being pulled from or without accessing the original loader? This way I don't need to know which swf the asset is coming from, just the class name that I could instantiate from the current ApplicaitonDomain.

View 2 RepliesI'm building a 10 channel mixer/remixer in Flash. Users can select a "song" to load from an xml driven combo box at the top of the application. In the document class, there is a function that takes the selected item from the combo box and loads in an external swf, which just serves as a library for the 10 sounds of a particular song. I then have to extract each of these sounds by their class names ("Track1", "Track2", "Track3", etc...) and send them off to their respective "MixerChannel" objects. As you can see, the following code block in the "initHandler" is pretty long and redundant. Is there any other way/shortcuts I can use to reduce the code a bit?

So with the help of others, I figured out the runtime font loading issue, and all was working great.Until we moved to the live environment, where apparently Flash is freaking out if I load my swfs from [URL]..
Can anyone tell me what I need to do to fix this? Here's the error:
Code:SecurityError: Error #2112: Provided parameter LoaderContext.ApplicationDomain is from a disallowed domain. In short, here's the structure. A Wrapper swf is embedded on a page.The Wrapper loads a child Player swf into a separate Application Domain, and then calls a public init() function in the Player to get things rolling, passing into the Player swf a reference to that newly-created ApplicationDomain the player was loaded into.At some point the Player decides whether or not it needs to load an external font Library swf for embedding subtitle fonts. It loads the font(s) as needed into the same ApplicationDomain that was passed into it (should be the same one it was loaded in itself, no?).
Once again, I've tried all sorts of combinations of code changes, but nothing seems to be fixing it. It all comes down to whether or not the original Wrapper swf is embedded via "www.domain.com" or "domain.com".
FYI, I have a crossdomain.xml file set up allowing both combinations of the domain name, and in each loaded swf (the Player and the font Libraries) I have a Security.allowDomain(); set with both combinations of the domain name as well. I resolved a similar security error similarly (a different externally-loaded swf), but that doesn't seem to be working for this.
I have typical situation where big loop is loading lots of images and its done asynchronous which make browser to frees during loading and I want to make it synchronous but having big trouble doing it. I found this class synchronous loader and it work great but you cant add mouse event listener to loader. Here is sample code:

I have a game built and I would like to reduce the loading time to the minimum possible.One of my ideas is to load the essential assets and some lower quality images the first time, leaving the higher quality images and some of the functionality out at first (for instance things like buttons that change the background color), and once the player enters the game, the rest of the functionality and its assets (images and sounds) will be loading in the background using the Loader class.So once the non-essential assets and the high quality images have loaded they will fade in and substitue the lower quality assets in the most subtle way possible.
Also... Would it be better to have various instances of a "Loader" class and try to load everything at once, or load stuff in order with a single instance of the "loader" class listening to the Event.COMPLETE event ?
I have a movieclip clip that plays when the movie starts, the movieclip is a visual assets that show's that the application is loading some information but it's not showing any loading progress, just playing while the assets are loaded.I created a for loop that will load the assets using a simple loader, and then when the object is loaded the application push the object to an array.Problem is that when the loading starts all the animation that i have on screen stops until the loading is finished.The whole point is that the animation will play while it's loading.
View 10 RepliesI want to have an AS3 app load images from url supplied by the user. But I don't want a malicious user to be able to load an SWF file in place of the image, such as with an altered extension "maliciousSwf.png". Well, not sure how big a security threat that is above and beyond the ability of the hacker to decompile swf, but I think that ideally such behavior should not be allowed.
So, is there any way to prevent this? When people allow users to load images in their Flash apps, do they somehow guard against loading of SWF? Or is this really absolutely no big deal?
How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.
