Actionscript 3 :: Combining URLRequest, URLLoader And Complete Event Listener?

Feb 27, 2010

when handling data, i always have to write the following:

var dataSourceRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("/path/file.xml");
var dataSourceLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(dataSourceRequest);
dataSourceLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleDataSource);

while i can understand the usefulness of these 2 objects and event listener being separate, since they often work with each other i'd like to know if there is a method that will combine them all? the closest i can get is this, but it's a bit pointless/nesting:

var dataSourceLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("/path/file.xml"));
dataSourceLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleDataSource);

what i'd really love would be something that automatically combines the URLRequest, URLLoader and completed event listener like this:

var dataSource:Whatever = new Whatever("/path/file.xml", handleDataSource);

Flash :: Get Associated URLRequest From Event.COMPLETE Fired By URLLoader

Feb 25, 2010

So let's say we want to load some XML -

var xmlURL:String = 'content.xml';
var xmlURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(xmlURL);
var xmlURLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(xmlURLRequest);

[Code]....

I hate that you can't just say e.target.src or whatever - is there a good way to associate URLLoaders with the URL they loaded data from?

Actionscript 3 :: Get The Data Of The URLRequest From The Complete Event Handler For A URLLoader?

Mar 17, 2011

I have a queue of messages that I would like to send to a URL and I would like to remove messages from that queue only after I am sure they have been successfully sent. To do this I need to know in the COMPLETE event for the URLLoader exactly what data was sent so that I can remove the correct message from the queue.That is if I have something like this.

var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(targetUrl);
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Not Receiving COMPLETE Event In URLLoader?

Aug 18, 2009

I'm querying a web application in a remote server through XML files and receiving answers in the same file format. Until now, sometimes I received a connection error:

Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: http://server/Services/startSesion.com
at reg_jugadores_fla::MainTimeline/queryGQ()
at reg_jugadores_fla::MainTimeline/reg_jugadores_fla::frame1()

When this occurs, trying to access the services through a web browser, there's a test page where you can try queries, returns a "500 Internal server error". I managed that problem adding a listener to catch the error:

xmlSendLoad.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR , catchIOError);

But since yesterday I can't connect anymore using Flash while it's possible to access the test page. I'm not able to talk to any support guy as the company is closed for vacations! I added listeners to try to know what's happening and this is the result in the output window:

openHandler: [Event type="open" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2]
progressHandler loaded:154 total: 154
httpStatusHandler: [HTTPStatusEvent type="httpStatus" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 status=200]

AFAIK, status=200 means OK but why the COMPLETE event isn't dispatched?. So, is there anything I can do or just wait until the tech guys return from the beach?

/************************************************** ********/
queryGQ(sessionURL,sessionQS); // Start session
stop();
/************************************************** ********/

ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting Error #2032 When URLLoader Complete Event Finishes Firing?

Mar 19, 2011

I�m getting Error #2032 when my URLLoader complete event finishes firing. What I can�t figure out is why.

Here is the error message:

Flex :: Attaching An Event Listener To All URLRequest's?

Oct 13, 2011

We have a flex application that connects to a proxy server which handles authentication. If the authentication has timeout out the proxy server returns a json formatted error string. What I would like to do is inspect every URLRequest response and check if there's an error message and display it in the flex client then redirect back to login screen.

So I'm wondering if its possible to create an event listener to all URLRequests in a global fashion. Without having to search through the project and add some method to each URLRequest.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event.COMPLETE Listener Not Getting Fired?

Sep 15, 2010

ok this seems to look like it should work.. but for some reason the Event.COMPLETE listener for the loader is not getting fired..

does anyone see something that I missed..

i put in trace statements in to see where its not getting to..

I verified this so far..

- the constructor function does appear to add the even listener to the loader.

- Unit3DPreview.load() function gets called (from the parent class) and receives the _path string properly..

- the loader does have an Event.COMPLETE listener at the time of the loader.load() call..

- the renderAnimation listener function never gets fired off.. even though the listener has been added..

there is no IO error.. the image is in the correct location.. I know this because if I remove it .. I get an IO error..

one thing is that there is an instance of this class already placed inside a library symbol that is associated to another class that passes a bunch of data .. the preview image path being one part of it.

not sure if having it be already existing vs me creating it via code would make a difference .. that is something I have not tried yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing An Event.COMPLETE Listener?

I'm having problems accessing a Event.COMPLETE listener for loading a php file:

Code:
function prepareD(){
//more code before
var hsloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

[Code]....

What is happening is I'm creating a new URLloader, then loading the php, and I create a Event.COMPLETE listener, but when the load completes (I've tested with navigateToURL), the listener doesn't trigger. I've also tried putting the var before functions, but it doesn't work either...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener To Check That Function Complete?

Mar 3, 2010

I am trying to create an event listener to check that a function has completed before the next action is run. In simple terms I have a module that is opened and closed via two functions... module_open() and module_close().Each function has tween elements that must complete before the next element is processed... i.e the next function, etc.This is the code I have ( have attempted to create an event listener but I seem doing something wrong. I am not even sure that it is possible to create an event listener that checks for a function finishing before calling the next function.

Code:
function onAbout(event:Event):void {
module_close()
module_close.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onClose_Complete);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Refresh URLRequest And URLLoader

Jul 22, 2009

I need to parse a particular web page every 25 seconds in order to take some particular values that are frequently updated in this web page. I need the parsed values in order to dinamically fill some text inputs components. So I write the following script:

Code:
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.utils.Timer;

[Code].....

With this script I'm able to get the webpage and parse the particular line of code that I need but only the first time! When the timer goes to zero the URLLoader function always loads the first version of the webpage and not the one that has been updated in the meanwhile! So I have always the same values! Using the trace function I have discovered that URLLoader loads the first version of the webpage. I don't know what is the problem here. Cache problem? URLRequest or URLLoader problem (maybe I have to clear the previous data?)?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Variables Using URLLoader And URLRequest

Feb 18, 2010

I am building a simple swf that will load in variables from an asp page using a URLloader and URLRequest. The asp page loads in the current values from a SQL database but these values will change every second. My swf loops every 6 frames and loads the data. How much load this puts on the server? And when the server is busy might this cause a problem with the variables I am reading in?

Does AS3 run all actions on frame 1 before going to frame 2 etc? I don't know if this is the best way but my last variable in the ASP page is called Loaded and I test for it before moving on. My major concern is the load I am putting on the website but is this small? In firefox the status box constantly flickers transferring data from ... and waiting .. but in other browsers you can't see the activity.

ActionScript 3.0 :: CS5.5 - Load XML Via A URLLoader And URLRequest To A Server

Aug 6, 2011

there you are, you set up your AS3 code to load XML via a URLLoader and URLRequest, as normal. You then take your XML file, and upload it to a server. You then run your program, and trace out the XML you receive. So far so great, and you see the results of your XML traced out. Then you change something on your XML, either adding to it or removing a line. You then run your program again from CS5.5, and trace out the XML, and it shows the same results that it did before you made any changes. I deleted the XML file from the remote server, and it is like it stored it in cache, and still able to read it. If I change the url or file name, it gives me an error, which it should.

If I point the url back to my remote XML file, and run the program again, it gives me the XML results I had in the beginning, before I made any changes to it (regardless if the XML file exists). The only fix I have found so far, is closing CS5.5, and reopening, and then it can see the changes. I did that, and it was able to see my XML changes on my remote server, but again, only one time. If I try to change anything, or delete the XML file, it still pretends as if its there, reading the results that it read the first time I run the program. Is this a cache issue? Anybody else experience this? I never remember running into this problem using CS5/CS4/CS3, only CS5.5. Of course, I can test it all locally first, and then upload the XML file to the remote server when I know that no other changes need to be made, but still, this is really weird!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adobe Flash Player Has Stopped A Potentially Unsafe Operation URLloader URLrequest

Oct 29, 2011

I am working on a flash website that loads live inventory data from a public csv file publish by google docs.  the csv file is located at a public address on google docs server:[URL].. I am using a URLloader and URLrequest within my flash movie to grab this data and assign it to different variables.

It works great when I preview the movie in flash. However, when I go to publish the movie and preview the html file its loaded into in dreamweaver, I get a security warning from adobe flash player: Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation

I went ahead and published the html file that contains the swf file to the web, and when I go to my site, I don't even get the flash player warning; it just sits there like its trying to load the URLrequest and never completes.

I understand that flash player has a security measures that prevents flash files from accessing files outside of the server directory that the swf file is published to.  I know you can create policy xml files to tell flash it's okay to load the data, but those policy files have to be located on the public server from which the data is being grabbed. But it's not like I can waltz on to google's servers a stick a policy file in there!

Is there any way to tell the flash player it's okay to load this data without getting that security error?  I can't have the end user having to go into their flash settings and adding the location manually.  I just need it to work without the security warning.

Is there another method of loading data from an external server without tripping up flash player security? aka, something other than URLloader and URLrequest?
