Flash :: .net - Debugging Visual Studio And Adobe Together
Jan 13, 2010
Most of my applications are a combination of VB.NET and Adobe Flash, such that the VB application is displaying a Flash file inside the main form (using Adobe's COM object). The VB application is communicating with the Flash file via the ActionScript ExternalInterface and FSCommands (using XML strings). I'm having a hard time debugging the applications, since when an error occurs withing the Flash file (due to a bug in the ActionScript code) I'm getting a non-informative exception.
What I'd like to do is to debug both codes at once. At the very least I'd like to see the runtime error output as it is shown when I'm working with Adobe Flash. At the best scenario, I'd like to be able to hook my VB.NET code with the Actionscript code such that I can use breakpoints in both.

Edit: Environment: I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and Adobe Flash CS4.

I know im a pain asking you all questions about c++ but we all know your all good enough to do anything so thought id give it a shot. I'm creating a naughts and crosses game (tic tac toe for you americans!!) for uni and am getting a little stuck! The game runs and a winner can be decided but when the game ends i want it to ask whether another game wants to be played.
Then i want it to carry on as a new game and loop until the players dont want to play again. i've included the source file in notepad form also could anyone tell me how to carry out a check on the array so that once a value has been entered into that co-ordinate (O or X) another value cannot overwrite it???

I'm having some problems inserting my ammap into my webpage. I've read through the documentation and it isn't helping. The map works with if I use the .html file in my original folder but all the paths are relative and I'm trying to make this work in an ASP.NET MVC project using visual studio. It's rather tough to explain the problem since I don't know what's wrong (no javascript or flash debugger).Here is the code that embeds the ammap:
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../Content/AlcoholAndWar/WarStuff/ammap/swfobject.js"></script>

Looking for a programming book that is in tutorial approach. Example this chapter teaches you how to do a login form. In the second chapter it teaches you how to integrate the login for to another app.Basically I'm looking for a book that teaches you real working application rather than abstract ideas. Programming language I have in mind is Adobe Air/Flex, Visual Basic. Functions I have in mind should at least cover Drag and Drops, Integration to a web form (form entry) and customizable interfaces.The languages i had in mind isn't fix. If you know a programming platform that has little code or easy to learn but still be able to develop a cool application.

I am a web designer and I do like to hand code using jquery however, I think it would be much faster to use gui applications like flash to create animations especially on the fly as well as support for writing and editing source code.

I have installed Flex Builder 3 and Flash Player 10 on my machine.
I don't know where the trace output goes because I just don't see it (I tried debug and output windows).
Also the breakpoints don't hit.

I click the "studio" button. The studio object's "txtVar" value is "studio_txt" The text box always references _root.txtVar, so whichever menu item is clicked, when the text box is told to update, it will load the new value of _root.txtVar. The problem is when i click the "studio" button, the text box fills with "studio_txt" instead of "our studio." So I need to know how to get the text box to read _root.txtVar as a variable rather than a string, I think.

has anyone ever used it or have experience with it? It seems a decent price and good functionality, but if someone has experience with it that gives me a lot more insightlso, it's designed w/ AS2 and says it can be used easily w/ AS3 via Loader & LocalConnection, but I've had problems in the past w/ LocalConnection & AVM1Movie's.

In my attempt to create a simple Pong-like game, I've encountered a very strange and at times severe visual bug.When I set the ball (A Flash CS 5.5 library MovieClip) in motion moving around the screen at a rather fast speed, I've noticed that sometimes the edges of the ball would be cut-off for a short moment in the direction it is moving.
When it happens, it almost seems like the position of the ball MovieClip is slightly ahead of its own border and thus the part that is outside the border fails to get drawn.
Here's a picture that illustrates how this looks - at least for me:
You can also view the .swf file online here: [URL]
Some technical data:
I've been unsuccessful in capturing the with a screenshot no matter how much I tried. Sometimes I would open the .swf and the bug would be almost non-existent while at other times it was very blatant. I'm using an EnterFrame event function to increment / decrement the x and y position of the MovieClip. I have never encountered any such problem in any Flash app, in this machine or others. Truncating / rounding the x and y values of the MovieClip didn't help. Neither did setting cacheAsBitmap to true.

I'm trying to make a visual novel in flash, I have created the UI and the characters, but I don't know what could be the best approach as how to load the dialog and how to save them. I've been thinking about external files, but I don't know what could be the best type of files to do so. Also, when I load the game I want it to continue in the same scene and with the same variable values (obviously) is there a way where you can save all of them (like an image of the game).

I was just wondering if anyone out there has had any luck trying to get a flash app to talk to either a visual basic or c++ application? I need to build a player [flash embeded into the vb or c++ application] that when the user say, pushes a button, calls a function or action from within the app. Any Idea How would I go about this?

I tried SwfObject for loading swf on a website. It is all good with webkit and mozila based browsers but not with IE.[URL].. In IE 8 the footer not loading, it like crashes after the swf loads. In IE 7 the player not working, so the footer loads.
How can I debug it? I have a Mac, Linux, Win7 with IE 8 64 bit. On IE 64-bit it gives a message to update the flash player but there is no update for this player from Adobe.

I'm using the iPhone packager that's part of Air 2.7 (adt -package ipa-ad-hoc ...) for a fairly large application. (It takes about ~30 min to run the packager.) When the app runs on the iPhone, it will crash almost immediately-- long before it gets to my code. The crash log shows
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0xc0067bdb
The debugging facilities included with Flash Builder only work after the app has launched-- there doesn't seem to be anything to help me figure out why its not launching. I've been able to get toy 'hello world' apps working, but I'm stymied here. Anyone else run into this problem? And, if so, what did you do to diagnose it?
