IDE :: Using The New Filereference Methods?
Dec 6, 2009
I am trying to make a file upload program using as3 and amfphp. Instead of using the upload method I am instead calling an amfphp function and passing the filereference.data as one of the paramaters. This works well and good, however, i have no way to track the progress of the file upload, other then when it completely finishes uploading. I've decided to chunk up the bytearray in flash before i pass it so that i can get more progress information during the upload. The problem is when I try to take the data from filereference and put it into a bytearray it gives me an End of file was encountered error.

I have an urgent task to implement in my project code. I can't able to access the new properties and methods which are present in FileReference Class. For load() ,save() methods needs runtime version of Flash Player 10. I need to include the flash player 10 in CS3 publish settings Version. Otherwise you can suggest how i can able to access the FileReference class new properties and methods without CS4.

I am trying to use the load method of FileReference object to load the data and use it to display a thumbnail of the selected image.However, after calling fr.load(), fr.data remains null.I'm using Flex Builder 3.0.2 on Windows 7 with Flex SDK 3.4 and Flash Player 10 Debug. If I evaluate fr.load() in Eclipse's watch variables list, I get an error reading "No such variable: load."

I've built a flash file upload and have it working very well in AS 2. Now I am tweaking and adding new features to it, and one thing I want to do is rename a file on the event it exists. I'd like to send this back to flash, and looked and saw onUploadCompleteData available for AS 2 in fp9. So I added this event, and it fires as it should, but all data seems to show is "<br />" that is what I trace.
Now I am a little confused, adobe's documentation is, a wee bit scant on this with no examples of usage, and I googled the heck out of it. Adobe's docs says it returns 'raw' data. So, am I mistaken in thinking I can echo name/value pairs in php ad retrieve these? are there other was the get values back from php after the file upload php file is done moving the file?

I've got a DVD style project where I need to be able link to files such as PDFs, JPGs and WMVs giving the user the ability to save these to their local drive.
I'm creating it with CS4 but the Filereference.save doesn't work as it needs a HTTP or HTTPS address.

I am testing interaction between two swf's on one web page so that I can understand how it all works before starting development.
I have two classes: the actual program (called AdminTool) and a navigation swf (called Navigation).
Here is my code for the actual tool:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
[Code]....
so this is executing the method's from the first swf based on the button pressed... or at least it is supposed to...
So when I load the page, both swf's appear and it looks like the buttons are taking the click event, but nothing is happening on the AdminTool swf.
Two questions:
What am I doing wrong?Is there a better way to test this sort of thing? (Where I can get trace messages, etc)

After scratching my head for months about a ProgressEvent issue I decided to post my problem.I've been searching the web for a long time about my problem and all I could find was people with similar problems..But none of them had a solution.I've created a SWF file to upload files to the web server.The even triggers the progressEvent.PROGRESS to let a javascript function know when the progress has changed.When it's done uploading it triggers Event.COMPLETE.When I test my code at first it doesn't seem to work.The progress is event 2 or 3 times and then claims it's finished (While the Event.COMPLETE isn't fired yet).When the file is actually uploaded flash triggers Event.COMPLETE accordingly.o Event.COMPLETE is correct.. but ProgressEvent.PROGRESS is not.At least, thats what I thought, when I tested it on another pc (With windows XP 64bit) it worked (Magically?) tried it on a Mac and it, again, worked...why it behaves like this?
Below is my code as it is right now.
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I've built controllers for the application which are defined in the Document class while the get & set methods are in the appropriate class. I find they become very screen real-estate intensive once you have more than 10 methods so i was wondering if anyone could let me know a way for writing them which has one function and sets and gets all the properties. heres some of them which define all the height,width, color,stroke,fill,tint of a drawn rectangle.

I'm extremely new to Flash and AS3. I used code snippets in CS5.5 to load an external swf from a main swf. Later I will have 10 swfs to load each with its own button in the main swf. It loads beautifully on top of the main swf. In the external swf I made a button to close and return to the main swf, so the user can then select another button. However I've tried various methods to unload and I have run into two problems. First, the close button does not work, and second if I add code to the close button it screws up the external swfs code. The stop at the first frame does not work and it plays through without the swfs other buttons working. Here is the code to load from the main swf:

The question is how could I stop a method being called twice, where the first call has not "completed" because its handler is waiting for a url to load for example?
I have written a flash client which interfaces with a java server using a binary encrypted protocol (I would love to not have had to re-invent the whole client/server object communcation stack, but I had to encrypt the data in such a way that simple tools like tamper data and charles proxy could not pick them up if using SSL).The API presents itself to flas as an actionscript swf file, and the API itself is a singleton. the api exposes some simple methods, including:
login()
getBalance()
startGame()
endGame()
Each method will call my HttpCommunicator class.HttpCommunicator.as (with error handling and stuff removed):
public class HttpCommunicator {
private var _externalHalder:function;
public function communicate(data:String, externalHandler:APIHandler):void {
// do encryption
[code]...
Will the second call trounce the first calls communicator variable? i.e. will it behave as if its static, as there is onlyone copy of the API object?If say there was a button on the GUI which had "update balance", and the user kept clicking on it, at the same time as say a URLLoader complete event hander being called which also cals the apis getBalance() function (i.e. flash being multithreaded).

I'm building a little recorder in flash and I have a little problem with sending the file that is recorded to php. Is there a way to simply send it with a var of do I need to set it to a file reference, but how can I do that because the only way I see that is that you need to browse or load is from somewhere.

I only allow PNG and JPEG files to be uploaded which I defined for all windows computers using the FileFilter via the constructor. The problem is that mac systems (or unix in generell) don't only use the file extension but also read some file type in the header of a file I think.

In Flash CS4, I've got a project that's working with a lot of XML. Previously, it's all been working fine, but recently I'm getting warnings like this when trying to compile:
Warning: 3594: toXMLString is not a recognized method of the dynamic class XML.
Warning: 3594: appendChild is not a recognized method of the dynamic class XML.
The lines of code that these errors refer to are:
stream.writeUTFBytes(currentXML.toXMLString());
and
currentXML.appendChild(marker.getXML());
"stream" is a FileStream object and "currentXML" is an XML object. "marker" is an instance of my own class, which I have imported, but I'm pretty sure that's not related.As I've said it's only happening now. I don't see anything in my code that could have changed it. Even if I turn the changes into comments, I still get errors.In addition to these two I am also getting other warnings, although all of them concern a method "not being recognized" in the XML class.I am using Flash Pro CS4 and am coding on the first frame of the timeline, as opposed to in a Document Class. Oh, and I'm making an AIR app, not a Flash Player one.

I'm new to AS3. I've got two classes.
damnMoles.as and startBtn.as
The damnMoles class uses a method called randomPlay();
ActionScript Code:
public function randomPlay():void {
this.gotoAndPlay("moleLabel"+randomNumber(1, 18));
}
Which basically allows the looped mole animation to start from various points in its timeline. I could probably use a different method to do this using an interval variable, but I originally coded this in AS2.0 and I want to update it, to see how this are different.
damnMoles class is attached to 6 mrMole# instances on the timeline.
Originally I used code on the main stage timeline to start the animation of the moles.
ActionScript Code:
startBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startClick);
function startClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
mrMole1.randomPlay();
}
This works fine, however, I would like to refrain from timeline code and use .as files. My startBtn class looks like this, but I get the error:
1120: Access of undefined property mrMole1.
ActionScript Code:
package com{
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
[Code] .....
So, how does this work? When I want to use a method from another class that has multiple instances on the stage?

I've written a pre-loader for my game, it uses Loader, URIRequest and LoaderInfo to display a bytes left/total counter as the main game SWF loads - this all works fine.
However what then happens is that the main SWF constructor is called, so the game starts running "in the background" while the pre-loader finishes off.
I moved the 'start game' code from the constructor into a different function but I'm now left with the issue of how can I actually tell the main game SWF to start?
You can't do loader.content.go() (where go() is the function I want to call).
How can I access methods of a loaded SWF? Or is there another way? I tried dispatching a custom Event from the pre-loader, but the game SWF just never heard it - but is this the right way to go about things?
I really want to pass some bits of data from the pre-loader into the main game SWF too, but until I can figure out how to make them both talk I'm totally stuck! Is there a way the game SWF could reference any variables set by the preloader?

Let me start by mentioning that I am using a program called "Koolmoves" that outputs AS3 compliant flash for player 9-10.
For some reason my filereference is not recieving COMPLETE event. Every works fine and file is uploaded etc, and I see the byte total match up in my progress event. but never get the complete event, I also tried the uploadCompleteData event as well and have tried with the PHP code sending a response and also without.
AS3 Code (pb1 and pb2 are buttons)
PHP Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.FileReference;

I have an object in the library that is linked with class Myclass, I define MyClass in its own AS file and everything runs ok, but as soon as I remove the linkage of the object with the class the compiler generates an error with a seemingly totally different class, that class is part of an open source data structure library for AS3, unrelated to that library object or class MyClass.
The error code is 1044: Interface method ****** in namespace ******* not implemented by class ********.And of course I checked and the class implements the interface methods, all of them so there should be no errors.The library I'm using is a [URL] and the class reporting errors is HashMap and HashTable.
