Actionscript 3 :: AIR SocketServer Cleanup? How To Close When App Quits?
Feb 4, 2012
I have a simple AIR app that listens on a socket using the SocketServer class.I have the following code when I first start up the app:
if( serverSocket.bound )
{
serverSocket.close();[code]....
However I find that if I try to test my movie after making some quick changes, I can't bind to the same address:port. I'm guessing that somehow that the port is still occupied. I get a "Operation attempted on invalid socket" error.But if I wait a bit and then test my movie, I can bind to the address:port. The close() is not taking affect. Can I try to close() this when the user decides to exit the app? Is there some sort of event that allows me to do something before the app quits?

Why does Flash CS5 quit when you close the window you were working in? It has to restart every time you close and open a file.

I am working on a chatting app that makes use of flash sockets. I don't want to code the entire interface in flash, so I was hoping to just use flash to talk to the socketserver and call js to modify the dom.

I have followed the tutorial here by obiAdmin (raymond) [URL] on how to connect flash to a php socketserver. The problem is in the development environment it works like a charm but when I put the swf on my local server (wamp) it fails to connect to the socketserver.

I figure that this code can be reduced with a for statement, but I can't figure it out. Here is my code, and below that is my attempt.On the stage I have 6 movieclips named nav1_ani, nav2_ani, etc. I also have 6 buttons above them named nav1, nav2, nav3, etc.Here is my code, here I got #5 and #6 working. Instead of duplicating all this code, is there a way to bunch it all into one "for" statement?
Code:
nav1on = false;
nav2on = false;

If I call the play() function of a Sound, which returns a SoundChannel object, will the SoundChannel still linger around after the sound clip is finished playing and eat up resources? Or will Flash's garbage collection scoop it up?

I've been using it fine - until the last month - I've completely uninstalled it - and reinstalled it. I was having this problem before I upgraded to 10.5.6... thought upgrading the OS may work - it hasn't. I'm on a MacBook Pro

A project I'm working on is working just fine at first, but as I perform more actions, it slows down noticeably. I've made sure to clear any onEnterFrame and setInterval events, so I don't think the problem lies there. Most likely, it's because practically every time an action occurs, much of the content on the screen is redrawn/recreated. However, every time I create a movie clip, text field, shapes, etc., I call a function to remove it beforehand:
Code:
function killThis(mc:MovieClip, thingsName:String):Void{
var obj:Object = mc[thingsName];
if (obj instanceof MovieClip){[code]..........

In Flash CS5 for Mac, when I click the red button in the upper left corner of the document, the application quits instead of just closing the window. In CS3 this didn't happen. The document window would close and the Welcome Screen would appear.

Generally when you unload an swf from another swf you would follow a cleanup utilzing removed from stage or unload events. But when you exit an as3 flash application by either navigating away from page or reloading the page or closing/removing the application. what is the best practices you would follow to ensure proper cleanup and garbage collection.
Question : what methods in solely as3 code can be used in this regard. It may be argued that once an swf is unloaded or removed its memory foot print can be verified to have decreased eg via the task manager Is this a good enough measure? Or is it advisable to handle the unloading/exiting in a proper manner ?

I hope someone here can help me figure out why my Flash CS4 on a Mac 10.6.2 machine crashes unexpectedly every time I open a file. (I have posted the entire crash log below) The program will open, and even stay open when I choose a .fla file for about 5-10 seconds and then CRASH every time. For what it's worth, all my other design collection programs work fine.I have tried uninstalling and reinstalled the Flash app., but it didn't do anything. I have also tried deleting all preference files and application support files in my user, and the problem persists.Does anyone have any ideas? I have a Flash job to get out and no way to work on it![code]

[URL] I needed to do clean up before the MC is gone ... so after some digging I found this event:
Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE
So I am trying to ask for some conformation here: Is this the ONLY situation that my MC will be deleted automatically by Flash? If so then I can just listen to this even and call my cleanup function when it happens...

I'm working in CS5, using AS2 on a Mac.I've built a presentation that requires the need to open pdf files in Acrobat Reader... as I have been building this on a Mac I simply used the geturl code which has been working a treat... today when I tested it on a PC it opened the file in a browser window!
I'm not really a coder and have to rely on finding bits online that I can tweak... after many hours I have fixed the pdf opening problem by using the fscommand method, but unfortunately when the pdf file is closed, my presentation (that was running fullscreen) has minimised itself to a window 100% to the original stage size!

I have a Flex client application. I need a clean up function to run in Flex when the user closes the browser. I found the following solution on the net, but it only works half-way for me. How could I fix it?CustomEvent triggered, but not executed. >> EventHandler for CustomEvent.SEND_EVENTS is defined by a Mate EventMap. All the handler does is to call an HTTPServiceInvoker. In debug console, I'm able to see the handler and HTTPServiceInvoker being triggered, but neither the resultHandlers nor the faultHandlers were called. I know this event handler has no problem because when I dispatch the same CustomEvent.SEND_EVENTS in a button click handler, it behaves exactly as I expected)Browser seems to wait for cleanUp function to complete before it closes. (all traces were printed before browser closes down)
Code
I added the following into the index.template.html
window.onbeforeunload = clean_up;

I have an application that runs as a projector and is meant to run full screen in a kiosk. However, when the app is expanded to full screen it crashes and I get an error message of:
Faulting application test.exe, version 10.0.2.54, faulting module test.exe, version 10.0.2.54, fault address 0x0015187e. Event ID: 1000
If I run it in a web browser and try to go full screen the same thing happens. I've been all over the web and haven't found anything. Have uninstalled virus software thinking it might be a problem.

I'm using a playback control that is giving me problems. The only thing that I'm using is a play/pause buttons and the time scrubber. I found this code on a website. Now, when I preview the swf, it plays fine, but when the video starts playing, the screen turns black and flash quits automatically.
This is the Error that I'm getting:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Website10_fla::MainTimeline/updateDisplay()
at flash.utils::Timer/_timerDispatch()
at flash.utils::Timer/tick()
And this is my code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
// time to buffer for the video in sec.const BUFFER_TIME:Number = 8;
// start volume when initializing player
// const DEFAULT_VOLUME:Number = 0.6;

Does anyone know the syntax for closing a swf window using a button, similar to closing a popup window? I am creating a small game, and am giving the user the option to "play again" or "quit" at the end of the game, so i want the quit button(standard library on(press)) to close the swf file.

I have a picture with an invisible button, once clicked on the button runs a movieclip with an instance - box1, once its opened a close button appeared, called closeBtn1 and the idea is when thats clicked, for box1 to gotoAndPlay frame 80, but no matter where I put the code it doesnt seem to let the closeBtn work! Even trace actions aren't getting recognised![code]as u can see I'm trying to trace even if the closeBtn gets rolled over but to no avail.I have also tried it from scene level and still no joy.
