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.
I have some binary data and I can't store it in a string, as such I'm using a ByteArray. The problem is that I need some functionality that comes with strings, to be specific I need the charAt, substr, indexOf and substring methods.
View 1 RepliesI 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?
So, as the title says I was wondering if it is possible to scale bytearray/binary data from lets say 640x480 which is being captured from the stage to 1024 x 768
View 1 RepliesI would need to save some binary data (bitmap data or similar) as a part of XML file.[code]...
I suppose I must serialize or encode "ba" (binary bytearray data) some way to string before writeing to XML and decode them back during the reading from XML, but I cannot find the correct way how to do it.

View 1 RepliesI 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();
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 Repliesunpacking data from a binary string. I realized it with a php code:
list($empty,$size) = unpack( 'V', fread($socket,4) ); $theresult = fread($socket,$size);
But how can i do this in as3 ? I didnīt find a possibilty to encode "unsigned long (always 32 bit, little endian byte order)". Is there a option like unpack in as3 ?
I m trying to write AS3 to take a screenshot of a MC thats on the stage and pass the data to a .cfc method which saves it as a jpg on the server.The current code I have kind of works except the jpg is unreadable.I think it has something to do with not using Flex, AMF, and writing binary files.When I look at the jpg via a hex viewer I think it doesnt have the right jpg header.The jpg begins with:c3 bf c3 98 c3 bf c3 a0 00 10 4a 46. When I think it should begin with:ff d8 ff e0 00 10 4a 46

View 1 RepliesI need to run a query and convert the results to an XML string. I *think* I need to do all of this in PHP but I wanted to get some guidance as sometimes I make things more difficult than necessary.
Do I have 2 scripts... one to query and one to process the results to XML? Or can I put them both in the same script. To do the latter is not proper OOP practice, correct?
Once that is done, I can get the data into Flash. I need it to be XML though because the same data is being used elsewhere outside of Flash.
Is this the proper, most efficient way of handling this task?
I have a string that searches the Twitter API, for keywords, for example :
var url:String = "http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=Robin%20&lang=en&rpp=100";
I also have a input textfield dynamically created:
var inputField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(inputField);
inputField.border = true;
inputField.width = 200;

But how do i take the data from the input text field and add it to the string, keep in mind the input data has to go in the keyword part for the string.

Im trying to convert a flash binary-decimal converter to another programming language (TI-Basic). I've got all of it down except one key part. I've got a solid backing of actionscript understanding but find myself unable to understand the following statement:
if (iNumber%2) { bin = "1"+bin; }
from this tutorial
I realize that inumber%2 will return a value being the remainder of inumber divided by 2, but how can this be a conditional? "if (2) { }" doesn't work for conditonals im used to. Or if your a TI-Basic wiz
p.s. how do you wrap actionscript tags around content in a post on the forum?
I 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.
