Actionscript 3 :: Flex - Get Server Time And Keep Incrementing Without Calls For Each Second?
Mar 13, 2011
I am working on an app, where the server time needs to be displayed on a Flex app.
The idea is to make a BlazeDS remoting call getServerTime() once during the app intialization and then use a local Timer class to keep updating the display.( I don't want to bombard server with getServerTime() for each second). My question is, once I have a AS3 Date object. How do I increment it by seconds?
I am looking for a quick and easy way to store variables in a text file, rather than use amfphp to connect to a database all I need to do is increment values every time a button is clicked. Would be better if all the vars were in the same text file but if I have to have one per var that would be ok.
Calling RemoteObject service for creating new record. On success of method I am adding new record in existing list collection. Functionality is working fine however for subsequent calls of adding new record response time of the services is increasing. For first call it takes 3-4 seconds while for 5 on words it takes 10 secs and so on. If I remove addItem(obj) line in below code in green, response time is quiet stable 4-5 seconds.
My code is as below
for each (var item:Hierattrmetadatanode in arrHierarchyData) { //Add new Item if(item.hierattrmetadatanodeid ==
I'm trying to limit a client's video playback to 10 seconds.After that,the client should be disconnected.I have to allow time for connection and buffering, so I can't just disconnect them after 10 seconds.I was hoping to override the play command, so I can force the length parameter to 10,
The Administration API exposes many methods that allow for monitoring and administration of Flash Media Server. Evidently, the Administration Console provided with Flash Media Server uses this API via RTMP. It must then be possible to receive the log messages that are created when server-side actionscript calls the trace method as these messages are received by the Administration Console. But I cannot find any reference to this in the Administration API documentation.pick up these messages? For example, if you were to build your own administration console, as the documentation welcomes you to do, how would you replicate the "Live Log"?
I have a list component that lists certain items..
so, if i click on a certain item..i should get the index this way : var clickedIndex:int = listID.selectedIndex; but how can i count the number of times the variable clickedIndex has been selected? so, if a user keeps clicking on the index[0], i want to know how many
I am trying to make a simple mp3 player using flash. The songs are loaded using an XML file which contains the song list. The following code is inserted into a new keyframe.
The problem over here is in the nextSong() function. I am unable to preserve the value of currentIndex. Although I am incrementing currentIndex every time the function is called, but the value remains unchanged.
I am looking the way to batch several remote calls from flex-based application to java-based server, so that they would be processed within a single transaction on the server-side.My idea is to build several services on server-side with setter/getter like operations:
interface MyService1 { void setField1(long myEntity1Id, int field1Value); void setField2(long myEntity1Id, int field2Value);
I have a GUI in flex. I am getting the value of the server date from the servlet to the .mxml file. I want to show the date and time dynamically changing. How can I do that in flex?
I have this clock code and would like to know what needs to be added or changed for it to reference the time off the server and not the local computer time (and preferably reference the server just once and not repeatedly). I already have a file on the server "time.php" that is providing the milliseconds. I know it should be fairly simple, but I just can't wrap my head around it.
I'm testing Live streaming with FMSS. The stream is pushed to FMSS buy Adobe FMLE software. Streaming works fine until I reach 1300-1400 simultaneous connections.No matter what the encoding ratebit is (150kbps or 2000kbps) the stream is no longer play from time to time (5-8 seconds).
The CPU (2xIntel Quad) is loaded less than 20% and memory used is about 2 GB (there is plenty of memory installed 32G). The OS is RedHat 5.3 64bit platform. Network uplink maximum rate is 4Gbps.I disabled the Queue but the problem still persist.
I have a component called a TableDataViewer that contains the following pieces of data and their associated set functions:[code]This component is nested in another component as follows:[code]Looking at the trace in the logs, the call to set table is coming before the call to set dataSetLoader. Which is a real shame because set table() needs dataSetLoader to already be set in order to call its load() function.So my question is, is there a way to enforce an order on the calls to the set functions when declaring a component?
obtain the time (by functions similar to getSeconds) of the server the flash file is hosted on, instead of the client who is viewing the movie?
Thing is, I have a very simple clock that displays the time in New Zealand (where I will be going), but it only display the time correctly for GMT+1 right now. If a client from New Zealand or US connects, they will see the wrong time :/
What I am trying to accomplish is two simple analogue world clocks (which I had already done using Jquery) but IE has turned out to be the biggest nightmare to get this working correctly in - so I am trying a different avenue.
I have written a small script to retrieve server times which is below:
var ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader() ldr.load(new URLRequest("http://chronos.csr.net")) ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded) function onLoaded(evt:Event){
[Code].....
do take into account DST as this was a slight pitfall I had even with JS (would have worked it out eventually but time is not on my side - excuse the pun).
I am using Flex and with the AS3 libraries.I can make calls etc but when i get values returned in the event,they are in RawResult. I am not sure how to turn that into an arraycollection etc so i can make use of it in flex, or if there is a better way of accessing the data, generally speaking.
var friendsDoc : XMLDocument = new XMLDocument(e.data.rawResult); var decoder:SimpleXMLDecoder = new SimpleXMLDecoder(true);[code]....
I have to use flex 4 for the front end and php with Symfony 2 as backend. I want to use amf to call remote methods on the php. I have known that Symfony 2 does not have plugin for amf communications with Flex. In this case how can I connect them? or I have to use httpservice/webservices which is slow in performance.
Web service calls are asynchronous in flex, but I wanted to wrap a web service call in a class to provide synchronous encapsulation. Something like the below - the user could call getMyMethodResult and get the result returned by the web service. I expected the thread that recieved the soap response would populate the variable _result and mean that getMyMethod would, after a time, find _result is not longer null. But it doesn't! Can anyone explain why this does not work?[code]
I have the following application in flex. I want to call two different remote objects in parallel.
[Code]...
Now what the methods do is to print sth. when they are called, then wait 8 secs and print sth. after that. When clicking each button seperatly, it works, both methods are started in parallel. However, calling both method the same time, leaves one service to wait with its call while until the other is executing. How can I avoid that?
I have a Flex 3 application that makes a call to a webservice. That webservice calls returns a 2 Mb file that flex reads and parses. The problem is that it takes sometimes 45 seconds. I was wondering if there is a way to cache the response form the webservice? So the next time I load the flash movie it doesn't have to re-download the full file but just the updated data.
We are converting a Flex application to use some REST APIs.
When adding the mx.rpc.http.HTTPService class to the code, the SWF binary output grew from 175KB to 260KB. This is an unacceptable hit.
Is there any better way to do lightweight REST calls from a Flex app? Are we better off using an external interface JS just to make the calls from there?
I have this button: <s:Button includeIn="MeniuPrincipal" label="Descarcare Date" click="downloadLmData(event)"/> And this click event handler: protected function downloadLmData(event:MouseEvent):void { downloadData('competenta', 'competente'); downloadData('localitate', 'localitati'); }
The downloadData function looks like this: private function downloadData(item:String, items:String):void { try { var colVar:String = 'col' + cappitalize(items); this.status = "Descarcare date in curs..."; this[colVar] = null; [Code].....
The problem is, all calls are ignored, except for the first one. Is there any "queuing" mechanism which would allow all calls to be made?

how would i get the server time from the server and not from the users computor.here is my countdown script im using but its getting client time not server time.
ActionScript Code: var currentYear:Number = new Date().fullYear; var targetDate:Date = new Date(currentYear, 11, 50);[code]......
i know i need php but what would the php code be.and how would i implement the server time from php into the code above.
