Professional :: Unloading Loaded SWF Classes?
Jun 6, 2011
The first part is that I am downloading a SWF from a server that has a bunch of exported images in it. I am doing a lookup of the class names for these images then using that to load the data into the application. Later on down the line it is possible to download a separate SWF that has images in the same format with overlapping names.The issue here is that when loading the second SWF with duplicate names it doesn't overwrite the data as one might expect, it uses whatever was loaded first. So I need to know if it's possible to either make it overwrite the classes with the new data or throw them away before loading the new SWF so the old ones don't get in the way. Is this possible at all

I am using the following code to load a SWF file into a Flash animation. The SWF file is nothing more than a short flv video (10 seconds). Users have the option of clicking a "HOME" mc if they want to return to the main menu before the flv video is completely finished playing.
[Code]....
When I click the HOME mc the lipStop.swf disappears as I intend and the animation returns to frame 1, but somehow I can still hear the SWF file playing in the background. I tried the samething using a FLV playback component and the same thing happens: timeline returns to frame 1, the image diappears, but I can still hear the audio track in the background.

I'm using some loopable tracks in a game I'm making and they are imported mp3 files in the .fla file. I export them for actionscript as different classes and then create them as variables, basic stuff.

how to unload the swfs in as3 once you click a button to load a new one.
My file works great, with the exception of the videos playing over each other. slight bummer.
I have five buttons that each pull an external swf that is controlled by an xml file. If there were not sound it would not be an issue, but the sound overlaps if you click to the next link before the first video finishes playing.
I uploaded all the files here, including two test flv files. the files were too big to upload to the kirupa forum.

I have a master swf that uses Loader to load in an external swf. I need to load a back button on top of that stack as a separate Child - and I have code in that loaded Child that needs to Unload the Loader-Loaded swf, unload the Buttons, and move the main timeline to another frame.

I'm about getting crazy over the inconsistency of loading and unloading movies processes.First one or two movies, ok. But after that, I always has my fingers crossed.It's a mixture or simple game and quiz movies. So I have this Main movie as the controller that control about 3 game movies and 16 quiz movies. So, I have these piece of codes in my Main movie timeline:
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (NextMovieOK) {
switch (movieQNum) {

I'm using Loader::load() successfully to load swfs into my main swf and then I add them as a child of a Sprite. When other events occur I want to remove the swfs as needed. I have looked at unload() and at removeChildAt() without success.
I only added the addChild() call to try to pin down the loaded instance so I could remove it. The loading works fine without the addChild();
I have also tried publishing to player v.10 and using myLoader.unloadAndStop(); but this has no effect either;
The following demo code shows my problem. I see one child added and one removed but intro.swf is still playing away.
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;

I'am developing a Custom Player for SWF's,...the SWF's are loaded externally.I've added functionality so as to load next SWf if next_btn is clicked and previous sef if prev_btn is clicked.Now, whats happening is that, the sound of the loaded swf is still playing in the background if another swf is loaded along with the loaded swf's sound.I'am thinking that if I'am able to remove the loaded swf and then load the next swf, then this problem will be solved,...I just don't know how to unload it.My code so far is...
var Xpos:Number = 0.0;
var Ypos:Number = 0.0;
var swf:MovieClip;

I load an external swf file (a music player) in a certain frame but need to figure out how to remove it when the user navigates to a different section. I've googled it and checked out the rest of the forum but having a hard time finding a specific code I can directly insert, I'm still not too code oriented and wouldn't know how to write it out even if given the proper terms. I feel as if it should be something as simple as:[code]But I don't know AS3 so I ultimately have no clue.

[URL]I have: main.swf (a menu) and I have module.swf (content)If you navigate to Subsea Wellhead Systems/SS-15 BigBore II and click on that I have it load an external swf which covers most of the parent. So far so good. My problem is unloading the loaded 'Child' swf with the button provided on the loaded 'Child' swf.below is the code I used to load the file but I cant, for the life of me, find a way to unload it.
var bigboreLoader:Loader = new Loader();btnbb2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, bigborecontent);
function bigborecontent(event:MouseEvent):void{var bigboreRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("moduletemplate.swf"); bigboreLoader.load(bigboreRequest); stage.addChild(bigboreLoader);
I am certain it requires the Child to communicate with the parent somehow but I am at a loss. If I could get a bit of advice or a link to something deal with this, it would be a big help. I just need to have my links load my modules and the remove them when the close buttong is hit on the loaded swf. I promise I have done searches and I admit I have found asnwers but still they are not working. I found the code below:
Main FLA:
function removeF() {
removeChild(bigboreLoader);
}

I spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla. In my main.fla, I have a code which loads the other two files. If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

In my code I have SWF A and SWF B.
SWF A loads SWF B.
The problem that I have is that both of the SWF's have a class of the same name but that have different member variables.
So from time to time depending on the scenario conflicts occur.
How can I avoid this?
I remember reading before about being able to separate the classes of two different swf but I can't find the article again

I make flash games with a standardized UI. There are dozens of different *.fla files of different games, created at different times, and all them should share the same interface. My solution was to put this interface into a Library.swf and make every game load that file first and initialize the required classes. It worked perfectly.Now, the UI and the game had to exchange events. If the "Next" button in the UI is clicked, the game has to know it. The solution was create an InterfaceEvent class. The game calls
Code:
ui.addEventListener(InterfaceEvent.BTN_NEXT_CLICKED, desiredFunction)
and the UI dispatches

I've a main swf thats loading a sub swf... simple
The sub swf has imported its own .as file to run some code.
The main movie also has its own .as file it has imported to run some code
See where I'm goin... ?
Problem is the .as files are in different folders, named the same name but have different code
When you load the sub swf into the main swf it tries to run the main swf .as file!
Anyone any solutions apart from the obvoius of renaming the files? At this moment this is not an option.
See my attached zip for sample files

We are migrating to AS3 at my job and I have run across a weird bug (???). I use the same basic class structure for most of my projects:Main.as - document class. handles preloader and sometimes XML loading, etc.Navigation.as - the class that handles all menu buttons, etc.Content.as - handles all the pages, game content, whatever.I created a game with this basic structure and published the SWF. Everything works great.Now, I built a website with this same basic structure and when I try to load the game SWF, it throws a bunch of runtime errors - it seems to be confused by the fact that the class names are the same.Each SWF works fine by itself. It only crashes when I try to load one into the other.
I should mention that both the game and website have identical package structure (because they are for the same client, duh!).Is this a flash player bug or am I doing something wrong? I went through the website and renamed all of the classes and it fixed the problem, but my concern is that we may have to load SWFs in the future that we didn't create. What if they have a similar issue? Unlikely, but possible.

My project is about a header.swf that calls a nav.swf (with a menu and other stuff) and also inits a slideshow through a Slideshow class.This is in header.swf:[code]I renamed the XmlParser class to "XmlParser2.as" (as well as other references to it) and then...it worked...what the hell was going on here?
obs: I tried that also: I commented all the code inside the "initSlideShow" function, keeping the XmlParser instantiation, and the nav.swf didn't show as well.
obs2 : i didn't had XmlParser.as imported cause it was in the root directory. ( i explicitely imported it and tried to compile but same thing happened)
obs3: nav.swf uses the XmlParser.as to load two menus, however I don't believe it has anything to do it since it's a file that is already compiled, at the point I try to load it into header.swf, right?

I recently discovered the incredible functionality of getDefinitionByName(), I'm attempting to load in pages for an interactive book.Each page has its own functions, listeners, nested animations, and timers.When loading in these pages, no stop()s are working within the nested clips, and any interactivty has been lost.It's just a mess of a bunch of animations running over and over.[code]
In addition to having the MovieClips not running code, I am running into serious garbage collection issues.I can unload the pages from display, but all sounds continue playing.Does anyone have an idea of why these loaded MovieClips are not running code, and why they will not unload properly with the destroy() method?

Im working on a App that is using a external swf as a container for some graphical assets. An asset is a movieClip symbol with a class name attached to it. for example ASSET_1. I load the swf with the Loader class into the app. Its working fine I can also access ASSET_1 with this technic:
//--- inside onLoaded
var ASSET_1:Class = event.target.applicationDomain.getDefinition("ASSE T_1") as Class;
var asset:MovieClip = new ASSET_1() as MovieClip;
addChild(asset);
my problem start when im loading a second swf and than i try to access "ASSET_1" again, and the class doesn't update itself, the content is the same as in the firs one.

I have several library classes that I am loading from swfs external to my main swf. These swfs all use the native tween class (import not extend). This means that I have the tween class creating bulk several times over (as well as the extra bulk for having to load a swf rather than having the class internal).Is there a way that I could make the tween class accessible at runtime to the loaded swfs without having it create the same extra bulk in all of the loaded swfs?the only solution that I can think of is to create yet another swf with the tween class as a library object, that would be loaded at run time by all the other loaded swfs.
