ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A "path" In Fscommand Exec?
Mar 2, 2010
I am calling some processing sketches(java exe) from as3
Code:
btngametwo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,btngametwoClick);
function btngametwoClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
if (btnLockOut == 0)
[Code].....
using a bat I get the command window up for a few secs--I do not want that
but I need to have each sketch in a subfolder in "fscommand " folder--if I do not use subfolders I can not have multible games.....anyway I can not seem to use a path to the .exe in the fscommand line that works

When publishing a mac projector (app) from Flash CS3 on PC,in order to use the fscommand("exec", appToLaunch) function, itseems as though the fscommand folder containing appToLaunch must berelative to the "Flash Player" app in the projector package. For example, if I create a mac projector called projector.appwhich calls fscommand("exec", "myOtherProjector"), and I putmyOtherProjector in the fscommand folder in the same directory,sitting next to projector.app - when I fun the projector thefscommand fails.
However, if I move the fscommand folder containingmyOtherProjector to the Contents>MacOS folder in the app folder(on mac right click, go to "show package contents"), next to "FlashPlayer" then run projector.app, the fscommand works and everythingis good.It looks to me like the fscommand folder needs to be relativeto the Flash Player and not to the projector. This means that the contents of the fscommand folder need tobe doubled on cross-platform projects. That's not good when you'repushing the limits of file space on a cd

I normally do a CD for a convention twice a year, and this year was different. As usual things gets down to the very last minute with changes, but normally we don't encounter any problems with the opening of powerpoint presentations from within a flash, with the fscommand, as long as all the presentations and software are on the fscommand folder.
But yesterday I just couldn't make it work. I thought at first that was a vista thing, that wont let you run a cmd.exe window from flash, but then I realized it was happening, even after burning the CD in almost any enviroment. I tried changing the publishing parameters to flash player 7, 8 and 9, and try to publish it with action script 1 and action script 2 in all the possible combinations. Then i got smart and republished one I knew that worked, and it stop working.

I am having trouble getting even a trivial example of fscommand("exec", "..."); to work. I just need to open a Word .doc from within a flash exe projector. Eventually this needs to be on a cross-platform CD, but I'd be happy to see it work from the desktop of my PC at this point! I've attached a really simple sample.

I could succesfully open a external pdf with the following command in Flash cs3 on a Mac: fscommand("exec", "test.app");test.app (inside an fscommand folder) is an apple script that opens the pdf inside the fscommand folder, to make it work I needed to copy the fscommand folder into the MacOs Folder of the Mac Projector File. The same steps don't seem to work with Flash cs5. I can't downgrade my cs5 project to cs3.Is this problem a bug in Flash cs5?

the same class is passed to the mxmlc compiler in SWF library as a symbol linkage class and again in a source-path. But the compiler uses the definition from the source-path so creating new instance of that class won't create new instance of the library symbol. How do I tell the compiler to prefer the definition linked to the symbol (the one dfrom SWC)?
I have my design assets in an FLA file and they are linked to classes (e.g. [URL]. Then I export those assets to a SWC library and pass it to the compiler. Now when I create an instance of the class (new MyAsset();) it will be a new instance of the library object.
But there are other classes too in the source folder (e.g. "com.myproject.model.*" so I need to pass the source folder to the compiler too. And that is the problem, now the compiler will use the MyAsset.as definition from the source path, not from the SWC where it is assigned to the library object so if I create new instance of MyAsset now it won't duplicate the library object.

I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.

I'm on a RedHat server, with a simple PHP page that has a form, with inputs for name, phone, and url. When the form is submitted, I run a command to compile a swf using mxmlc. The command is this :
[code]...
Both directory and files have been CHOWN'd for ownership and CHMOD'd for 775... So what am I doing wrong to get this to work from the web page? Should I have a forked process and wait until it's complete? Sleep?

Where JPGS2.app is an applescript which resides DIRECTLY inside the fscommand folder the following WORKS:
Code:
on (release) {
butt1.onPress = function(){
fscommand("exec", "openJPGS2.app");
}
}
Where JPGS2.app is an applescript which resided inside the folder "scripts_apl" inside the fscommand folder the following DOES NOT WORK:
Code:
butt1.onPress = function(){
fscommand("exec", ":scripts_apl:openJPGS2.app");
}
The same is true if just for kicks I put ":fscommand" in front of the path. Can I assumer therefore, that the EXEC commond does not allow for nested folders even inside the "fscommand" folder even though Macromedia documentation says otherwise? I know that was an older reference. It is really important that I get a sub folder. I have some 40 applescripts and PC scripts that I will need to run, and I would really prefer them to be tucked nicely away in a folder.

why the below line of code launches notepad.exe twice?
fscommand("execfile", '"C:\Windows\Notepad.exe"'); //opens notepad 2x - path in double quotes
verses this line of code which opens it only once?
fscommand("execfile", "C:\Windows\Notepad.exe"); //opens notepad once
I'm working on a FP10 .exe projector project and noticed this odd behavior.If I had spaces in my file path, I'd want to surround it in double quotes, but that has the undesired effect of opening the app 2x.Since I don't have full control over all the elements in the project, I'm forced to use fscommand in this scenario.

I am displaying some flash content on a fairly standard page. This works really well when the flash, xml file and html page are sitting together in the same directory.url...However, I want to display that same content in another page which is deeper inside the site but outside of the directory that houses the .swf and .xml files as well as the assets.[code]The js files are loading properly but the flash content is not, so I could use a little help getting that sorted out.

The project is a keyframe based presentation and I'm an actionscript novice. It is to run, full screen, as an executable off a CD ROM and there are 4 .flvs in the executable. Here is my code for the first frame which contains opening video, and it works fine (sadly a simple fscommand fullscreen from as2 won't work). Problem is, I get black screens & weirdness when I try to use stageDisplayState and fullScreenTakeOver's on the frames that contain the other 3 videos.

What happen is that i have a quit button and when it is clicked:
fscommand("quit"); will execute.
However for some reason, it only works sometime and at other time, it has no effect.
So, anyway, this is the code:
In the menu:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
[Code] .....
