Flash - How To Detect 32-bit Or 64-bit OS In Flex
Mar 18, 2011I need to detect 32-bit or 64-bit OS through Flex.
var osName : String = Capabilities.os;
This only gives Windows XP or Windows 7. I need to detect 64-bit Windows XP.

Let's say I had a flex application (Web, not Air), that was meant for Mass Distribution, to be included like a plug-in of sorts, at various websites. Is there any way for a particular instance of the SWF to detect it's own URL while it's running? If so, can you point me in the right direction of which ActionScript command I might google for more info?

View 4 RepliesHow do you know if your compiled SWF file has a memory leak?
Are there tools, a firebug setting, etc... to see if there is a problem? I cannot find much in the debug Flash player besides file size and loading time.
I have a large Flash application that I maintain and suspect that is using way too much memory so I wanted to measure the amount of RAM being used while it executes to find key areas to optimize.
I am making an application that plays the video stream from the user's local system (both Windows and Mac). I use the Camera.getCamera() method and in turn Camera.names to get a list of camera attached with the system.
Unfortunately, if the camera is already in use by another application, say a desktop application on user's system, the browser is crashed. Is there any way that I can detect if a specific camera from the list of available camera is already in use by any other application?

View 1 RepliesIs there a way (in javascript) to detect if an embedded .swf was created with Flash Professional or Flex.We have a page with several tabs, each of which can contain an .swf.All tabs are defined within the same HTML file and the javascript framework calls a .rewind() and .play() on the swf when the containing tab becomes active.This works great on regular flash animation, making sure they start playing from the beginning when the tab is opened. On an swf created with Flex however, the rewind and play wreak havoc on the Flex framework and the application doesn't load.
The best way we've come up with to detect Flex is to count the number of frames the .swf has. With flex that's always 2. But this doesn't sound like the best way.We've also tried to add a callback method with ExternalInterface on the Flex application preinitialize event.Unfortunately this event is called quite late in the application startup and the javasctipt code checks the callback before the Flex code has added it.
My Flex 3 application has some modal dialogs displayed via the PopUpManager, but there are times when I'd like other view components to know there is popup displayed. The PopUpManager doesn't have any method for actually checking the existence of popups. Is there any other way to detect this in flash/flex without writing my own global manager?
(also systemManager.popUpChildren.numChildren == 0 even when there's a modal popup)
I need to detect when a Flex Spark List (spark.components.List) data has changed so that I can programmatically change its scrollbar. I know that List is a an EventDispatcher but it's unclear which event I'd register for.
Edit: My List's dataProvider is an ArrayCollection that elements are added too. So the dataProvider is never replaced. I considered listening to the backing ArrayCollection, but it's possible the List will react to the change after my listener, which alters the scrollbar. Thus my listener's changes will be superseded by that of the List.
If my ComboBox is editable how can I tell if a change event comes from a change to the TextInput or a change in the selectedIndex of the drop down?
Is there a way to check for this in the event object?

View 1 RepliesI'm creating a map that has points of interest. (POI) When a user mouses over the POI an info bubble pops onto the screen and it loads an swf. I can't detect the size of the swf so that my infobubble will size itself to the size of the swf. When I mouse over my swf file, it disappears. I would love to have the my swf file pop up in a layer on its own instead of being on the stage of my main flex file...

When a Flex component moves directly, so that its x and y properties change, then a "move" event is dispatched on the component. That's all fine.
However, a component may also move as a result of its parent component moving — or its parent moving, and so on. Now when a parent component moves, its children just "move along" without any properties changing or move events being dispatched on the children. Still, the children are moving on the screen. So how can you detect this kind of generalized movement?
I need to detect if running in ADL or not, I can't seem to fine an answer that is guaranteed...I found a couple posts online that say "this might work..." Is there a reliable way to check?
View 1 RepliesI have a custom component Comp that gets its position changed as a result of interactions with other components, etc. I check for changes in its position by constantly checking its position at fixed intervals. I'm looking for a better solution (maybe an event-based solution) to monitor its position so I don't have to check constantly myself.

I have a simple AS3 class that just holds private variables. Each private variable has a getter function, but not all of them have setter functions. At runtime, Is there a way of telling which properties do not have setters but are read-only? Then I can decide to give the user an input field to edit the properties that have setters.

I'm developing an AIR application which uses multiple windows. I'm running into an issue where I want to open new windows (toaster notifications for example) when the primary application window is not visible, but the behavior is different depending on how the window is closed.
When a user hides all application windows with CMD-H, opening a new window causes all application windows to come back to the foreground (instead of just that new window, like I would expect). If the user closed a window with CMD-W, however, that window does not become visible when I open a new window.
Is there a way to either 1) tell when the user uses cmd-h to hide all windows OR 2) tell whether a window is hidden using cmd-h vs. closed cmd-w?
I'm using NetConnection, NetStream and a flash.media.Video control to play back video files stored on the local machine. Works great for FLVs, and for H.264-encoded MP4s, but for non-H.264 MP4s, I often get audio, but no video.
I realize this is to be expected. What I'm wondering is whether there's a way to reliably detect that the video portion of the file is unplayable, irrespective of the audio. Of the many events available in NetStream, and even in the client callbacks (onMetaData, etc.), I don't see anything that explicitly informs for an unplayable video track -- I see NetStream.Play.NoSupportedTrackFound, and NetStream.Play.Failed, but for these videos -- i.e., playable audio, non-playable video -- I don't get either one, presumably because the audio works.
I want to find out whether the scroll bar shows up in my Datagrid or not.
