ActionScript 3.0 :: Find The Last Modified Date Of The File?

Jan 31, 2009

Im working on a project where files are being loaded using the URLloader in flash as3. I need to be able to find the last modified date of the file that is being loaded, unfortunately the files may not always be on the same server as the flash app, so it may not always be possible for me to add a line to the file that has the last modified date, that could be read easily in flash. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to retreive this information, I know in air you can use URLLoader.httpResponseStatus which allows you to get the http headers and find it that way but it doesnt appear to work in flash.Id like to try to do this with out having to call on javascript or php to find it, since it would then require 2 connections per file i believe to be able to do everything I need 1 to get contents in flash, and one for either javascript or php to find the last modified date, but if I have to that seems to be the only option I can come up with.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Check Local File's Modified Date?

Jan 31, 2010

Is there a way with AS3 and flash player 10+ to check the modified date / time of a file? I'd like the swf to see if the local file has changed since it last checked. If it has, load the new data and go from there. An outside source is writing that new xml file and it could be a few seconds to days or weeks before it's updated again.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Find The Date In A Program?

Feb 14, 2010

I need to find the date in a program I'm writing, but I need to know it's accurate. Does anyone know how reliable the Date method is in AS3 at returning the actual correct date? For example, Date.dateUTC should return the date of the month according to Greenwich Mean Time, but as I assume Flash looks up the information from the users operating system. Is it safe to assume this will be correct? In windows for example, you can set the date in the calendar to anything you want - would this affect the value returned by Flash?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Find The Difference (in Days) Between A Date And The End Of The Year

Feb 23, 2011

I'm trying to find the difference (in days) between a date and the end of the year.

This code:
Code:
var NewYear = new Date((new Date()).getFullYear(), 11, 31);
var CalcDate = new Date();
DiffInDays = Math.floor((NewYear - CalcDate)/86400000);

Is nearly right, but it seems to be a couple of days out - If I run it as at today (Feb 23rd 2011), It gives me 310 days till the end of the year, whereas (by counting on all my fingers and toes) I get 313 days.

Flex :: Tell If An Object Has Been Modified Since Save?

Dec 11, 2009

I'm creating an air application that allows the user to create, edit and save Objects in files. I'm trying to implement a "Save on Close" prompt if the user hasn't saved her changes to the object before closing.Let's say I have a Class called MyClass marked as Bindable that is composed of fields, each exposing a getter and setter. Some of these fields are ArrayCollections of custom Classes. I want to consider a change a change to any of the fields, or any of the fields in any of the objects in any of the array collections the parent object is made up of.

I could manually dispatch an event anytime a setter is called on the MyClass object and manage this all manually, but I'd also have to do it in a bunch of places in the application logic, for instance when the user changes one of the custom objects in one of the array collections that comprises it. This is a fine solution, but a little dirty and hard to maintain. I could also check the current object against a copy I made at the time of start up or last save, but I don't like the idea of doubling my memory footprint just for this.

there was some event, perhaps an event that the binding broadcasts, that I could listen for in one place and manage my "Saved" variable. Does such a thing exist? I tried listening for the dataChange event that binding apparently dispatches, but I either did it wrong, or it doesn't do what I think it should.
