Actionscript :: Window.onerror=function Like Directive To Capture Errors?
Aug 20, 2011
before i begin, i should mention my actionscript skills are about a 5/10. that being said, if you point me in the right direction, i should be able to figure it out.
is there a way of capturing actionscript errors in a window.onerror like fashion?
i already have an amf based logging system setup, both the sending and recieving end are working 100%. so getting the message to the server is taken care of. just need to know if its possible to capture the errors.
i would like to capture any and all actionscript errors, and log them so i can debug them if need be.

My first attempt involved using LoadVars and "load", and only calling loadMovie if the file successfully loaded (found the technique somewhere out here). However, I found that the ProcessRequest function in the HttpHandler was getting called twice when the file does exist. Makes sense - once for load, once for loadMovie.Now I'm using MovieClipLoader instead (also found this technique out here). This way does call ProcessRequest only once whether or not the file is found. But my problem is that the onLoadError function is only working when I give it a bad URL. If I give it a good URL that passes a bad filename to the handler, the handler throws an error, but my onLoadError function doesn't seem to recognize that there's a problem - I just get a blank area where the error message should be showing up.Here's the relevant AS2 code:
function CheckFileExists(inFile) {
var mclListener:Object = new Object();
mclListener.onLoadError = function(target_mc:MovieClip, err:String){

I'm using AS3 in timeline. I have a three page movieclip (dynamic_mc). Each page is labeled p1..p3. On p1 I have an input text box named userName and button named next_1. On p2 I have a dynamic text box named greetings_1, an input text field named schoolName and two buttons (back1 and next2).On p3 I have another dynamic text box named greetings_2 and two buttons (back_2 and next_3).
On p1 user enters name, which is captured on p2. Once a click next button on p1, I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at FlashCS4_Curriculum_fla::lesson9_pg6_dynamic_122/frame10() at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at FlashCS4_Curriculum_fla::lesson9_pg6_dynamic_122/goP2()
Why do I get an error when using buttons? Is there a better way to capture input text?
Here is the code by page.
//page 1 = p1stop();
var hisName:String;
next_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goP2);function goP2(evt:MouseEvent): void{ hisName =userName.text; gotoAndStop("p2");
} // page 2 =p2 greetings_1.text= "Welcome :" +hisName;var school:String;
//next buttonnext_2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goP3);

How do you capture errors that happen on client side when building RIA apps using Flex and Silverlight? What are the common practices? I have seen some asynch js calls to a web service implemented but would like to know how the community is dealing with it.

Just started coding in AS3 with FlashDevelop and coming from a C# background, I would like to know if there's something equivalent to the #region directive in AS3? The #region directive in C# essentially allows an IDE e.g Visual Studio to collapse or expand a section of code to improve readability. With #region directives, you can split codes in sections e.g constructors, properties, public/private methods to aid others perusing your code.

I am looking to change the URL of a clip when the stream is not found. I am properly configuring the onError event, as I can debug the specific line or add an alert, but what I am having trouble with is the following:
onError : function(errorCode, errorMessage) {
this.getClip(0).update( { url : 'http://full-url.com/images/stream-not-found.png' } );
}
The problem is this image is never being loaded to the player upon the error -- I get a stream not found error message and then the player continues to look for this 'unfound' stream. I'm able to hit the URL and see the image, but am unable to change over upon stream not found. Per the documentation it is supposed to be able to take an image as the URL, but using a fully qualified or relative URL doesn't seem to be working. This is somewhat simplified as we are looking to use customized images for each error code.

tell me the difference between the Allow directive in Vhost.xml file and the one in Adapter.xml file? The PDF on FMS says about Allow in Vhost.xml:"This element is a comma-delimited list of domains that are allowed to connect to this virtual host. The default value isall. If the Allow element is left empty, the only connections allowed are those coming from the same domain."
While it says the following about Adapter.xml:"A comma-delimited list of host names, domain names, and/or full or partial IP addresses from which clients canconnect to the server."I can't see any difference?I'd guess one specifies domains that hosted SWFs can connect to server from, while the other specifies client-side hosts which can connect to the server.. However it is not clear to me which is which.

I'm using a custom right click context menu for a flash app (overriding the default adobe menu). For this Uza's right click solution [URL] works well.
However, flash player plugin (for Firefox/Chrome etc) has a bug which breaks usage of international characters when its using WMode for the html embed. WMode="widnow" works.

The issue can be seen better here -

I need to capture the right click event fired from Flash player plugin to the web browser container without using WMode on the html embed tag (ie. WMode="window")

I'm trying to create a simple game where you can click on shapes in a toolbar and then drop them on the screen.There are three shapes, so I want the user to be able to select different shapes and such.I've written the code thus far like this:
Code:
stop();
var cursor:MovieClip;
var shape:MovieClip;
var circ:MovieClip;[code]..........
I'm getting a duplicate function error and incompatible override error for both the "rect" and "pent" functions, but the code works fine if I eliminate these two functions and just include the "circle" function (albeit the old circle disappears the instant I drop a new one).

I'm making an interactive website using ActionScript 3 and no matter what I try and do I keep getting the following error messages:

I don't really understand what I'm doing wrong because it says "duplicate function" yet they aren't the same functions. Here is the ActionScript I've used for the first page:

We have a flex application which compiles fine on windows box using mxmlc ant task but when we try to run the same build scripts on linux, it throws the 'Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet' error indicating it is not able to resolve the path to the image files.
Can someone pls. educate me on if there is a difference in the way the image files are looked up, in a CSS file, on windows vs linux.
Flex sdk version is 3.3. The same sdk is used on both windows and linux. Not sure if this has been fixed by any future 3.x sdks.

For example, Lets say I have a flash swf game, and when users press connect they are assigned a random id that's then put into a mysql table. Then I have other users that connect and then can connect to these random ids. When users click disconnect i have the id taken out of the table that way when other people want to connect they dont get ids that arent active. is it possible that when a window is closed to have it run a php script? so i can get it to clear their user id?

I have thumbnails in a portfolio slideshow movie clip. Each client featured in the movie clip has three thumbnails that when clicked are to show the corresponding image by going to the labeled frame for that image.I used the following code on the first client at frame 1:
//"ace_1" is the instance of the first thumbnail
ace_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ace1);
function ace1 (event:MouseEvent):void {[code].....
This gave me the "1023:Incompatible override" and "1021: Duplicate function definition" errors.I have 14 clients I have to get similar thumbnails working on.

I have a frame based HTML file in which my SWF is displayed in the left frame.My SWF file has a button that simply,when clicked,displays a HTML file in the "rbottom" frame. Following is the code I used:
var a:String;
function aboutmeClicked(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("resume.htm");
navigateToURL(targetURL, "rbottom");
}
aboutmeB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,aboutmeClicked);
Unluckily, when the button is clicked at run-time, the "resume.htm" file is opened in a separate window rather than in the specified frame.

I was wondering if you can make an eventlistener to trigger to execute a function when the window/tab viewing the swf is closed. I searched around, and there seems to be a way to do this with flash.external class and javascript, but some users have javascript disabled, so is there a way to achieve this without javascript?

I have a function that checks for something when the user clicks a button. if that something is found, an alert comes up saying that it has been found and asks them if they would like to allow this to happen, or undo the action that caused the something to be found. the code looks like this:
Alert.show(thisString1, "Conflict: Multiple Projects", 3, this, conflictAnswer);
upon pressing "Yes" or "No", the conflictAnswer function will be called... it looks like this:

I am making a flash application and I am trying to find function to use when I press the close button of the projector window. I dont want to make a button that uses fscommand("quit") since this would be impractical knowing that a default close button on the window is already available. Anyway the purpose of the function is that when I close my application, a dialog box/message would appear as a reminder that some data has not yet been saved and give the user an option to save or quit the application.
