unpacking 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 didn´t find a possibilty to encode "unsigned long (always 32 bit, little endian byte order)". Is there a option like unpack in as3 ?
converting bitmap data in flash movieclip to binary form. Need the solution using AS2.
View 1 Repliesi 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 RepliesThe app is basically a small product catalog, depending on the choices made within the app I need to feed that data as a string into a text field in a html form that the app will redirect to when a submit button is pressedMy knowledge of AS3 is pretty limited and I'm learning it on the fly and I've really no idea how to accomplish this.Somebody said I should use the ExternalInterface function but I've really no idea how to do it and on reading the flash help file it seems that ExternalInterface communicates with the html page in which the .swf is located, whereas I need it to pass data to another html page and then load that page.
For instance say I have a html page called forms.html and that page has a textfield with the ID: FlashOutput and Label: Your Order, I have a string of data and a submit button that redirects to the URL form.html how do I pass my data string to the textfield within that html page?

I am trying to create a simple form using Actionscript 3 that will collect data from a form, then pass that data to an asp file. I have attached the following code to the submit button,but this is not working.I'm not sure if I have to add anything else and I don't understand why this is not working. I'm trying to load all the variable info into one variable called email form.
submit_btn.onRelease = function() {
var emailform:text;

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?
I will like to convert string into binary
here is the code
private function sendCommand(e:MouseEvent):void {
var ba:ByteArray = new ByteArray();

I have a custom socket class designed to connect to a server and talk with it. At one point, the server uses hex data for speed, however Flash seems to not get ANY of this data. In fact, it doesn't get ANY of the data from that point to the next packet.
View 2 RepliesI wrote an image editor for my cms and wanted to send the image respectively the through the BitmapData's getPixels()-method received ByteArray to a PHP-script that displays and finally saves the image. Obviously I didn't succeed. How do I have to encode my binary data so that PHP is able to read it and how do I have to treat the bytes in PHP? I also tried encoding the image data with the corelib classes from [URL] but it didn't work as well.

We have a system that allows a user to upload any image, which we store on the server. Of course, it is simple to load an image (that you know the path to) using loadMovie, but I also want to load certain pieces of meta data about the image that is precalculated and stored on the server; we may one day want to retrieve things completely unrelated to the image as well, so consider the non-image data to be arbitrary.So, that said, is there a way to simply return the image as a variable (urlencoded and returned in a loadVars request, perhaps) and then load that data into a movie clip?
Bonus Lightning Round Question: Is there a way to check the output of a PHP script which processes uploads when the request is sent via FileReference.upload(url:String)? Should I load/escape the binary data and then send it using a loadVars() request if I want to see the output?

View 1 RepliesSometimes flash-socket ignors data which is being sent by server. I dunna know exactly if it's server-side problem(data actually aint being sent) or flash.How does flash handle numerous of data packages comming from server ? I know that flash perform all actions in single thread, but what happen when flash recive a lot of packages at same time ? Does flash serialize incomming packages and then call ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA for each package or just ignore those packages which cant be handled runtime ?

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.
How can I change this so it saves the image as binary data. This code works fine but when the image is created the file size is too big.

I've got XML data in AS3 that needs to be compressed, validated on my Java Google App Engine servlet then saved to a file in Google Cloud Storage. Later that file will be opened and decompressed by the AS3 client. The process works if I do it with plain XML or text, but if I ByteArray#compress the data, it dies during ByteArray#uncompress with "There was an error decompressing the data".
I've tried setting the content type and mime type at various points, as well as encoding with Base64, but every attempt seems to break in a different way and I never get the same XML back that I sent in. Do I need to use multipart? Should I compress on the server? [code]...

View 2 RepliesI need up upload urlencoded binary data to tumblr.this is what I'm currently trying:
baseString.params = 'data[0]=' + URLEncoding.encode(byte.toString()).replace('~','%257E');
1 - SWF must have ability to loading binary data from any domain.
2 - SWF cant load policy XML file from url, cause upload form allows me only to upload swf files, so I cant include any other data.
I tried:
Security.allowDomain("*");
But it works only for SWF files.I tried to embed policy XML file:
var dataXML:XML =
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- http://www.foo.com/crossdomain.xml -->
<cross-domain-policy>

This will make an security error, if file is from different domain than SWF file.Its possible to get binary data from JavaScript using ExternatInterface in AS3 code.Here is cross-browser library for reading files binary: binary reader and later version jDataView.
