I am getting problems in making calls to Web Services in AS3. Since Adobe has removed the built-in classes for AS3. It brings a lot of headache for programmers.I am currently using Alducente classes for the same. Tweaked it according to my requirement. Still some issues left.[code]

I'm trying to understand how to make referrences from one movie clip to another where one has "loaded" the other. I'm not seeing how to relate the two.keep in mind that I've just gotten comfortable with spittin things up and loading them from external swfs, etc.Lets say that I have a main.swf with a set of 3 buttons(self managed MovieClips actually) that each dynamically load 3 swfs with individual content The first of these sub movie clips(e.g. web.swff) has a set off say 3 thumbnails. I want to be able to have these thumbnails invoke the actions of the 3 buttons up in the main calling movie but I am not clear how to go about calling these functions when they are not in the same scope as the main move. I keep thinking that if I had these thumbnails in a clip within my main.but I still hit this same issue of making a correct reference.This is just a current example. If there is a simpler or better way to explain this kind of communication feel frer to ignore this example or tell me to just go read a tutorial somewhere
// snippet from main.flafunction click_web( e ) { var chl_mc:MovieClip = my_lc.add_content("web.swf");}
function click_motion( e ) { my_lc.add_content("motion.swf");}

In one of our project we are using flex for front end, blazeds/java in the backend. Its an existing code where services are prewritten. I have to make calls to 3 services in the backend (basically 3 remote objects) and get their result and store the result in an object and show the data of this object in a view.
Now in front end we are using Flex and Parsley Framework. I was thinking of the following approaches.
1) Making commands for each service call and storing the result in a shared object (model) and then displaying this model in the view. In this approach the problem is some services are needed in some other web pages, but they donot need the same model. How should i handle this scenario ? Should i make a asynchronous remote call and fetch the result and then again dispatch and event with the event object storing the result.
2) Making a service call , wait for the result then make another call and wait for the result and then make other call, not sure if this is the right way ?
use webservices written in dot net in as3?

View 1 RepliesUsing the Webservices connector, I'm able to connect to any public webservice but when I try the same method to connect to a webservice that requires authentication I get URL not found error.Is there a way to pass the web-services credentials through Flash or any work around?
response of one operation is input to the another operation of the same webservice.. like I need to invoke multiple webservices at time.. using actionscript. I need to develop an widget.. As soon as I invoke the widget it should go and invoke the multiple webservices with different operations on each webservices and populate the meta data of the services in the visual components present in the widget.
View 1 RepliesI'm just getting started connection to webserivces and I have looked at a lot of tutorials and I get most of them to work but I'm having a little bit of a problem. I'm coding in eclipse with the flex plug-in and I'm using flash to complile it. I'm trying to come up with a generic class for my webservices where I can just pass in the wsdl and any params and it will run. I'm using the webservicex for my wsdl in this example. Here is the code below and it works great and returns an XML.
[code]...
Now the problem. I have a specific wsdl, NOT THE ONE ABOVE, that I pass in a lot of params, which isn't a problem, and it seems to be sending them all just fine but when I trace the result I keep getting [object, object]. how to turn this into and XML, or why it is coming back as an object?
I have a flex app that loads a WSDL at runtime and shares that across several different web services I have defined. Unfortunately each call to loadWSDL() makes a network request for it, and while it's not really a problem due to caching it's still annoying and wasteful to have all those requests generated. Is there a simpler way to solve this problem and only make one network request?[code]
View 1 RepliesI managed to run the FMS on an EC2 instance and I am able to use admin console. So I think I can say, that the server is running. Now I want to connect to the multicast application, which is delivered with the FMS as an example, via RTMFP. I can't get it to work... With an FMS 4.5 development server I didn't experience such problems. It seems to be a problem with the AWS. It might be, that I missed something to configure

I am banging my head bloody here. I have this webservice to wich i have to post an XML scheme in order to get a result back. The XML is supposed to be formatted like illustrated in the fla file Now, when i construct this XML in Flash i can trace out properties from that, for example:
trace(wsRequestXmlBody.children().children().child ren().children()[2].text()); // traces passord.
But what i want to do is change for instance the value of that node to a dynamic value. I can manage to add a node to the XML by doing:
var testvariabel:String = "mytest"
wsRequestXmlBody.insertChildAfter(wsRequestXmlBody .children(), <test>{testvariabel}</test>);
But i just cant manage to manipulate the nodes further into the XML structure, or change their values. What i wish to do is for instance change the value of the tag <password></password> and assign my own dynamic value there.
Also, when i use the namespacing shown in the fla, it sort of strips the first tag of the original XML structure (the Envelope tag), i would like to preserve all the tags in the structure, and simply be able to change the value of some of them. I guess it has to do with the namespace structure, but i�m not good att understanding namespacing.
Sometimes (too often...) some webservices "hang". I can see the clock cursor in my app and the network monitor of FB2 shows the webservice as "pending". After waiting a long time, the status changes to "OK" and the clock cursor disappears. How can I find out why a webservice takes sometimes minutes while it usually takes not even a second?
My webservices run on my localhost during development using the Zend AMF Server.
We use 3 types of services in Flex; HTTP, Remoting and WebServices and would like to increase my understanding about their use cases. As far as I understand,
Remoting can be used only in homogeneous environment like Flex-RubyOnRails (through RubyAMF) while Webservices can be used in Heterogenous environment using SOAP protocol. Remoting has advantage of native object support that web services don't have. That also means no parsing/extraction will be required in former. Now, talking of HTTP services, they dont support complex operations or parameter passing and can be used for only basic operations.
i want to call a function on a soap-webservice using actionscript 3.the function has multiple parameters each of different type (int string).
this is the as-code i have so far.
var ws:WebService = new WebService();
ws.wsdl = "http://.../Service.svc?WSDL";

View 1 RepliesI have to deploy a webapp on Tomcat 6.0.24, serving some webservices that should be accessed with REST-style methods (not fully REST, since the used flex class HTTPService can just send GET and POST).
The webservices are deployed at [URL]
The problem is that the policy of flex sandbox (i think it is called so) requires that the server with the services has to offer a file crossdomain.xml on his root directory.
I created that file with the following contents:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
[Code].....
I am testing it and it does not seem to work. Maybe i am not doing it right. PS: I think Apache is not configured to manage Tomcat-addressed requests, every request is dispatched by port, i think. I can not provide the exact flex error since i am not developing that part. I will try to make a minimal example in the next hours and see if i can reproduce the problem.
i have a question to ask, and im really new to this script. i try my best find this solution but i didnt have enough information about Flash AS2.0 Connect with RESTful Services. i have server link "[URL]" if it WSDL link i know how to connect it using Webservices Class on Flash COmponent. but to this RESTful Services what actionscript code to connect with that link. any information about this action that can share with me?

I have a Flash movie that uses Actionscript 2.0 to trigger animations. The swf and flv files are separate though - the flv is called by the swf. There are cues in the flv that fire Actionscript events. How can I get the whole thing to export? I can convert the flv to an avi but I need the animations.

View 1 Repliesim using a function that iterates through all nodes in an XML tree, and then calls itself again if any of the nodes it is looking at has a set of child nodes, so in other words it multi-dimensionally loops through the entire XML tree.[code]one question i have is - am i correct in my assumption that while variables declared within a function are not accessible anywhere but within that function, if a function calls itself, any loops within that function that use a variable such as "i" will be affected seeing as "i" is accessible within the function?if so, how do i get around that? currently my function loops through all the way down to last child node it can find along the first branch of the XML tree, but then doesnt continue looping through the other branches.

Using Tweener, is it possible to run code in between two calls to it (Tweener)?I'm a little bit familiar with Tweener and am trying to use set ChildIndex() after one call to Tweener executes and prior to running a second Tweener.[code]I'm trying to get the sprites to switch levels in the depth chart (so to speak) so that one sprite will appear on top on the first pass but then appear behind another sprite on the second pass, but it seems like the lines of code execute while the Tweener is running, and the desired effect is not happening.
View 3 RepliesI have created a movie that calls up an MP3 (background music) with this script:
fscommand("fullscreen", true);
var mySound:Sound= new Sound();
mySound.loadSound("MyMusic.Mp3" , true);

mySound.start();
}
The thing plays great with Player 8, however, when I play back the same .swf from Player 10, the sound plays much too fast (speeded up...how can that be????), and the quality is horrible (lots of slurps and pops and blips and beeps in there).
