I was wondering is it possible to pass an array through the localConnection in flash? My local connects connect my flash application with the javascript and passes variables between them.
View 1 RepliesThe first one (FLEX application) sends a message on a dedicated LocalConnection to a second one (Flash application). The Flash then answers by sending a message on another dedicated LocalConnection. This message is not directly received by the FLEX and the delay is at least 30s, up to 1 or 2 minutes! It seems the issue only occurs with Flash Player >= 10 and it never occurs with Chrome.
I didn't find anything on the web concerning a similar issue nor something in Flash Player release notes. Did someone already have this kind of problem?
By the way, is there any tool that can be used to sniffer LocalConnection communications?
Additional information:
swf are located in different frames swf are embed with swfobject I tried to delay the Flash sending, I tried to create another LocalConnection dedicated to this call but I always had same result: for all calls, the FLEX method is called after the same delay. I also put a timer in FLEX to periodically log to see if there is no background process delaying the method processing but everything seems fine
When using LocalConnection that have two SWFs talking back and forth to each other. Are objects passed by value or reference?
View 2 RepliesIs there a way I can pass complex objects like sprites or timers through LocalConnection? It seems like you can naively pass simple objects like String, Number, Array thru the LocalConnection. But I can't seem to send other data types.I read that you have to use the method "registerClassAlias()" within the receiving SWF file before that SWF file can accept complex objects. For example, when I attempt to send instances of Sprites or Timers, I get the following error:
"Error #2044: Unhandled AsyncErrorEvent:.text=Error #2095:flash.net.LocalConnection was unable to invoke callback sendState.error=TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Object@b9210b1 to flash.utils.Timer."
How can I send complex data types or are some data types not send-able?

anyone knows how to pass an array values from an HTML into flash? Well, to begin I'll discuss what am I doing. I edited a twitter widget javascript which search tweets based on the hashtag I needed then passing it on an array per tweet and then displaying it using a <div> it updates once every 5 minutes. Now I want to display those tweets on a dynamic text on Flash. Let's say I will have 5 dynamic text placed on my flash file then; I want each of those dynamic text to have the tweets I have based on on my HTML arrays to be displayed in random.

Passing a JavaScript array to Flash?I want to pass an Array from JavaScript to a Flash movie. My goal is to create an Array of URLs to pass to Flash and once the Array is in Flash, I can access those URLs in the movie.I know how to send a variable to Flash using the "Embed" and "Object" tags using "FlashVars".
<PARAM name=FlashVars VALUE="song=song_URL">
but I want to somehow send and array, or maybe can I call a function that creates the Array I want to send?My reason is to have an HTML developer come back and change the Array values and that will change the Flash Array, so they don't have to edit the Flash movie.
I have a Flash object on my site, which has this code:
this.ld = new LocalConnection();
this.ld.allowDomain("*");
ExternalInterface.call("alert", this.ld.domain);
It alerts my domain successfully. However, what I want is to access the HTML DOM through this using LocalConnection and not ExternalInterface directly.
How can i communicate btn two SWF using LocalConnection methode (flash8)
View 1 RepliesThe following code, which is pretty straight out of any Adobe example works fine on Flash 10, but when run in Flash 9, the sending connections onStatus event receives 'error'.
The expected behavior in this example is that the listeningConnection.ready method is invoked on SWF1. A demo of this can be seen on [URL]..
[Code]...
I've used localConnection to build 3 swfs that communicate with one another. Everything works smoothly until i open another browser tab with any flash website. And those websites were built by me so i know they don't contain any localConnections.
Why is this happening and is there anyway to prevent it?
I have two flash movies communicating with each other using localConnection, passing an object from swfA to swfB. This seems to work fine, but will occasional fail. The only information we have is that the status event is fired with a level of error, there is no other information. Once a connection has failed it will continue to do so.
I don't know why it's happening but it is not a security problem (both movies are running on the same domain) and all communication is wrapped in a try..catch.
alternative method for communicating between movies? I've tried using ExternalInterface but it's too slow for the number of updates that are sent.
Consider The Following Actionscript/Flex code:
[Code]....
Assuming I do NOT want to run the sends in series, but in paralell (all at once), as above, and further assuming that one, and only one of the send commands will generate a status event where level='error': ow can I detect which send command produced the status error?
I have a TextInput and a List in my application. I want to send the information written in TextInput and the names of the selected options from the list to a php file.

I have a multi-dimensional array that I'd like to pass to a .php script (to generate a printable .html page). If I load my .php with LoadVariables, would it automatically understand the structure of my array and be able to loop through it in the way I expect it to?I've only passed strings and numbers to php in the past.

View 2 RepliesYou can do this:
PHP Code:
public function (args ...)
To take in any number of arguments. Is it possible to then give the content of that args array to a new function:
PHP Code:
public function bla (args ...){
pleh( changeArrayIntoArgs(args) );
}
So that that would be the same as just passing arguments manually. lets say bla got 3 arguments:
PHP Code:
bla(v,vv,vvv);
So that bla then executes:
PHP Code:
pleh(v,vv,vvv);

I created a custom button component that accepts an array as a property. I set the property as follows:
titleDims="[{Month: comboBox1.text, Year:comboBox2.text, Sales Order:comboBox3.text}]"

Wat is wrong with the array syntax?
What is the difference between both:

How do you pass instance names into arrays? I've got a bunch of movieClips of states.
They all have instance names.. alabama, arkansas, delaware, florida, georiga, etc..
I am trying to send them all to an array because I need to be able to disable the movieClips all at once and I don't want to call each one separately. I setup an array and a "for" loop, and it properly gets each value in the array:
ActionScript Code:
states = new Array(alabama, arkansas, delware, florida, georgia);
stateslength = states.length;
[Code].....
It took me hours to figure our why this was returning the wrong value - when assigning one array to another it passes by reference not Value. I need a way to force it to pass by values. e.g. copy the existing array and have the second array reference it, so i am free to modify the first array without changing the values of the second.[code]From the example above You see that in Actionscript when assigning one variable to another it does it my reference not value. So when you chage the value of one array it changes the value of the other automatically.I need to have the "test2" variable reference the "test1" array only by value so if modify "test1" the values of "test2" won't be modified.

View 3 RepliesOur web application has a feature which uses Flash (AS3) to take photos using the user's web cam, then passes the resulting byte array to PHP where it is reconstructed and saved on the server. However, we need to be able to take this web application offline, and we have chosen Gears to do so. The user takes the app offline, performs his tasks, then when he's reconnected to the server, we "sync" the data back with our central database.
We don't have PHP to interact with Flash anymore, but we still need to allow users to take and save photos. We don't know how to save a JPG that Flash creates in a local database. Our hope was that we could save the byte array, a serialized string, or somehow actually persist the object itself, then pass it back to either PHP or Flash (and then PHP) to recreate the JPG. We have tried:
