Actionscript 3 :: Loading A Text File In XML Format Through An URLLoader?

Feb 21, 2011

does anybody have a good explanation of the as operator? On one hand it seems to me, that it is often better to use as instead of instantiating a new object.But then there are situations, when this operator let's me down. For example when loading a text file in XML format through an URLLoader:

private function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
var loader:URLLoader = URLLoader(event.target);
trace("completeHandler: " + loader.data);[code]...

Why do I have to use a constructor here? Why can't I say var x:XML = loader.data as XML; and save some memory?

Actionscript 3 :: Flash Player Breaks When Loading .csv File With URLLoader

Mar 25, 2011

I've made a little flash, with AS3, to view the data generated by some program I wrote... The data is in a .csv file and are loaded to the memory with a URLLoader object.

The flash loads well .csv files which can come to almost 50 MB in size... But when I try to load a file with 160 MB, the player just stop working... I run the last flash player version, outside of the browser...

I've heard that the Flash has limitations on the amount of memory it can store... But in another question, they say it has not.

What may be causing the crash? - I don't think it is the code, since it runs smooth for small files...

ActionScript 3.0 :: URLLoader() Not Loading Php File In Firefox Or Opera, Fine With IE And Chrome

Jul 14, 2011

I have run into a problem with the URLLoader that I havent encountered before. I have reviewed my code several times and maybe I am missing something.

Basically, I have a separate loader class that I want to communicate to a php file located in the same directory. That php file forms an xml markup within and returns the location of a background image from the database. As you can see from the code, I have event listeners for progress, loaded, and IOerror.

This works fine in IE and Chrome. However in FF and Opera, my custom progress bar shows 100%, but the info bar shows "IO Error" (which is kind of a visible trace statement on the swf for informational purposes) and it does not go anywhere.

This is the swf's location: [URL]

PHPGetBackground class:
package com.hexonite.loader {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;

Php :: Flex - Send A FLV Format Data In ByteArray Using URLloader To A Script?

Dec 15, 2010

Im creating flash game that have the functionality to capture/record its gameplay that can be viewed later by the user, like a replay.

As for now Im already able to record the game and write it into a flv format in a ByteArray variable.

What Im working right now is how to send that ByteArray(the video file) to a php script and save it to a web server.

I've run into the URLLoader in flash where it can send the data and php will receive it thru the POST method. Unfortunately, the ByteArray containing the flv data must be first correclty encoded for php to read it. I figured this out from the example in the net where it does the same thing only that it is only sending a JPEG ByteArray instead of a FLV format using the JPEGENCODER.

Is there any existing class like the JpegEncoder for FLV format or any Video formats? Or any work around like creating the encoder my self?

here is my current code to send the ByteArray

//send byteArray to a php script
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Text Field Not Displaying Text File Format?

Jul 10, 2009

I'm reading text from a text file and displaying it into a text field. The problem is when i read it doesn't display the text as it is in a text file. For ex - See below imageNow , as you can see, second line in the text file starts right where first line ends.But flash doesn't display it like that. I have hundreds of lines and in most cases flash spaces consumes less space then a text file. The font in both text field in Flash and notpad is to Arial so the font shouldn't be a problem.

Professional :: Loading Vector Graphics File Format In IOS Converted App?

Mar 9, 2011

I'm going to create a iOS app in flash and convert. I'm thinking I may want to load graphic assets at runtime. I'd like these assets to be vector graphics so they can be resized easily with no quality degradation. I usually use SWF files ofr this purpose. Unless I'm wrong, a converted iOS app probably does not load SWF files. So I'm wondering what kind of vector graphics file format can iOS load at runtime?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Format Of A Text File?

May 6, 2004

I have two arrays "array1" and "array2". I load the values in array1 by reading images1.txt and load the values in array2 by reading images2.txt.The following is the code for reading the text from file "images1.txt" and loading into array1.

Images1=a1.jpg|a2.jpg|a3.jpg|a4.jpg|a5.jpg|a6.jpg
m = new LoadVars();
m.load('images1.txt', this);

This works fine. Similarly I read the text from "images2.txt" and load the array2.Now my question is Can I load both array1 and array2 by reading from a single text file? If so, what should be the format for my combined text file.Shown below is the format for my individual text files.

"images1.txt"
Images1=a1.jpg|a2.jpg|a3.jpg|a4.jpg|a5.jpg|a6.jpg
"images2.txt"
Images2=b1.jpg|b2.jpg|b3.jpg|b4.jpg|b5.jpg|b6.jpg

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 :: Flash Wait Until URLLoader Finishes Loading?

Apr 13, 2011

I am trying to load the output of a php-file into some flash variables and then fill some textfields with those variables. But it seems like even though I have a completehandler it tries to fill the textfields before I get all the data.

Code:
function loadQuestion(){
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("the url to my php script");
request.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;

Is it wrong of me to have the completeHandler inside the loadQuestion function? And is it wrong of me to assume that because I put the data in the textfields in the completeHandler it should w8 until its finished loading?

I need the ability to click the Bold button and it bolds or unbolds at the cursor so if I hit the bold button what I type from that point on will be bold until I hit the button again and then it goes back to regular.

ActionScript 3.0 :: URLLoader - Loading Question Pools For Captivate Quiz

Jan 18, 2010

I'm using URLLoader to load my external SWFs in as a ByteArray before use so I can preload them without the possibility of them playing prematurely. It's been working great so far, but I just ran into an issue. It's not loading question pools for Captivate quizzes. If I use Loader.load() for my quiz it works fine and the question pool loads. If I use URLLoader to get a ByteArray and then use Loader.loadBytes(), I get an error saying that it can't load the question pool. My code is below. If you comment out the urlLoader.load() line and use the loader.load() one instead, it'll work fine. Otherwise, I get an error.

Code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
addChild(loader);
urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done1);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load An .xml File Using A URLLoader

May 23, 2011

I have encountered an interesting problem when I try to load an .xml file using a URLLoader (within my own custom class). I have several configuration .xml files which I use to configure the application when it launches. For example, in the code below, myCustomLoader is a custom class I wrote that takes an .xml file as a parameter. The myCustomLoader class encapsulates all the instantiation of the URLLoader class and error handling etc. The code below operates as expected, the configuration files load into memory, and they're accessible throughout my App.
