Professional :: Saving The "trace" Output Locally?
Sep 4, 2010
I was wondering whether there's a way to save the "trace" output to a text file on the user's machine. I know we can use the flash debugger for this purpose but is there a better and more efficient way?

How do you send the output of a function to a dynamic text field on the stage instead of the output panel?I have used trace(); but that just sends the value to the output panel.

I've been playing with prototype a bit and I've noticed that either it isn't as static as it should be or that some functions are protected from altering, or that in some cases the prototype actually extends a function. For example, I was trying to modifiy the global trace function to output the current time of a trace action, something like this :
Code:trace("lulu"); // output 12:48:17.286 lulu I DID achieve something close to it, but it seems that I haven't actually modified the global trace function, but rather it's "_root" counterpart,

I'm quite new to AS3 (coming from php/c#) and like it very much. My problem: trace doesn't output anything in the Output window anymore?!

I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?

Is it possible that, when I publish my flash program to the internet that the user can save and load text to a text file somewhere on his computer?

I have an offline presentation for a client that needs to have a form submitted data saved local on the machine (kiosk) to be gathered later.I researched on google and found fscommand to write to a txt file but this no longer works and is sorta sloppy.

I'm simply trying to get Flash to display the first ten characters in a trace, but the results always come back undefined. Here is my code:
var lin = "";
var testfile = new File("test.txt");
testfile.open("text","read");
lin = testfile.read(10);
trace(lin);
The flash file is in the same directory as the text file.

This is absolutely driving me crazy. While I'm a fan of the availability of asynchronous calls in AIR, I'm finding that being forced to use them for something that should be SUPER simple is a severe limitation. So severe that I may end up abandoning AIR and writing native Android and iOS apps instead of using the shared AIR platform.
OK, now that I have that off my chest, here's what I'm trying to accomplish. I have an app that, when deployed, is relatively small. But once deployed to a user's device that user will log in using a login name/password. Once they log in, content specific to that user needs to be downloaded and saved to the local device. Since the content varies by user I can't include it in the package for deployment.
But I cannot figure out how to accomplish this: say I want to download 10 files and each file is 2-3mb and I want to show a "Downloading, please wait..." view during the download. The application cannot proceed until all 10 files are downloaded. But since from what I've seen URLStream and URLLoader are both async I cannot figure out how to block the app from opening the "View available content" and say on the "Downloading, please wait..." view.

I'm new to flash but I have over 15 years in software and 20 in IT.In everything I have worked with so far in Flash I've used trace( message ) to put a message in the output window. Then it just stopped.

I was wondering if it was possible to save the contents of the output window to a separate txt file like notepad. I'm doing a project that involves testing the execution speed of flash by putting more and more objects on the screen as it plays and I need it to save the result when it freezes up or crashes.

I'm working through some tutorials from my instructor to eventually build a simple e-com website for a state park. Basically, I'm using the two as3 files shown below and trying to get "bob" in my output with an array function and trace. Load store function is intentionally coded out. When I test project, nothing comes up in output, and I have no errors.
Main012.as:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Main012 extends MovieClip {
public function Main012() {

I am not sure even what to call this but if I have set a text field value and other various values with functions in AS3 to where I can trace the values in the output panel. How do I then capture that data to be sent to fields in a shopping cart? Make sense?

I'm developing an applications which I've got running on a server on my linux desktop. Due to the shortcomings of Flash on Linux (read: too hard) I'm developing the (small) flash portion of the app in Windows, which means there's a lot of frustrating back and forth. Now I'm trying to capture the output of the flash portion using flash tracer and that is proving very difficult also. Is there any other way I could monitor the output of trace on linux?

i need to know the type of variable in the output with the trace(), so it could be something like so
[AS]var outputVar:String = new String();
outputVar = "this is a string";
trace (outputVar == String);[/AS]
well, i thought this was possible, but something must be wrong...

I am extremely new to as3 and just have started coding in as3. I have the following code in a001.as file
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class FirstCode extends Sprite {
public function FirstCode() {
trace("yes");
}}}
It seems extremely simple and I feel very positive that there is no error in this code.
And this line in a001.fla
Code:
import as3.a001;
The .as file is in as3 folder so I think the import should work fine. The one (and only) problem (that could arise) is that the trace leaves nothing in the output window. I tried various other codes instead of this but to no avail. None work. Its just a blank screen. By the way I have Flash CS4.

I am currently developing a flash application that would allow a user to control a movieclip on the stage using 2 keyboard inputs (like turning 2 knobs in order to align something).I have it set up that on the 2 keyboard inputs, the movieclip moves.What I am looking at doing is using trace statements that I use to track the position of the movieclip, which is just a simple black dot, and having the values of the trace statement show up on screen in 2 dynamic text fields, after being rounded to the nearest whole integer. The dot is in the movieclip entitled mCoordPlane.My script is below:
stop();
mAligned.visible=false;mNotAligned.visible=false;
var letterK:Boolean=false;var letterJ:Boolean=false;var letterD:Boolean=false;var letterF:Boolean=false;[code]......

This includes some code and some traced output. I've been looking at this for 2 days and it stupifies me. I'll elaborate: There is a game object, its a dictionary object containing a screen tile with index/name tile_x_y So i can look it up using the x and y coords. The object contains lost of stuff but in this case especially: x, y , width, height, xtile, ytile (self explanatory i assume) & xmove, ymove (-1,0,1 depending on direction.)
So, now these objects move around the screen (yes its just a game) and check if they hit the screen bounds and if they try to move onto tiles that are occupied/non traversable. It goes fine for most objects but sometimes, or for some objects (no clue why and it changes on restart), halfway the boundaries check, the object internal x and y values go ballistic and i end up with a reference error on the dictionary object because tile 280 30 just doesnt exist.

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 have a button that, when it is clicked, should cause a text box to appear. I can make text appear as a trace so I know the button's working, but I have no idea how to either get the trace onto the stage - it only appears in the .fla .output window. I think what would be preferable would be to get a text box to appear as the event but can't work it out....
