Flash :: Protect Method Calls In A Swc Residing In Another Swc
May 13, 2011
I have an alchemy compiled swc which contains methods to perform certain key algorithms. These methods should only return values only if user is authorized(bought license from online service) for security purpose. So I am planning to add another SWC on top of this, which have all the licensing code stuff. But when I import the Alchemy generated swc inside my custom swc, all the methods of alchemy are exposed.
OK, from what I know actionscript in Flex runs asynchronously. I need the ability to run a method in a loop synchronously. Consider this code:
public class CustomerContainer extends VBox { public function CustomerContainer () {
[Code]....
This is not my exact situation as it is a bit more complicated to explain here. There is an abstract class and several custom view objects derived from it. Some of the views are dependent on others being completed first but I cannot seem to order them in the correct order. TIMERS are not an option. Probably not explaining this correctly.
I have a several Grails services that are invoked from Flex code using Spring BlazeDS integration. I wanted to add some general debug logging using the groovy metaClass. I have the following in a bootstrap class:
Using the web services panel, I've connected to a web service, but all the method calls will only show the param structures/types - not the result structures/types. To the best of my knowledge, I'm sending the right parameters, in the right structure, but always I get an empty response.The web services panel:
Debugger results (with breakpoint placed just after a response is received):
I would like to protect my flash files. I would like to block any decompilers,protect actionscript and also protect graphics. Some time ago,I tried to decompile a swf and when I placed it inside a decompiler , it showed me a login form and no graphics.I believe that is the ultimate protection method.Do you have any idea what software can do that ?
I followed the tutorial on isometric transformations [URL], which I had no issue understanding. However, I thought I would explore putting that tutorial into multiple files / external classes as a bit of an exercise. Now I am just getting an error stating that "Calls to a possibly undefined method drawIsoRefBars". I've messed about for 2 days now, but just can't seem to nail the problem. where I'm going wrong in the following code? The intention is to create a drawingBoard sprite to plot/draw iso reference lines onto.
I know about Local connection class connecting two swfs in the same web page.But kindly let me know if there is any way to connect to two swfs residing in different web pages.
Is there a way to find the radial distance using the zipcode? My task is to search the all the users residing with in a specified distance. I know the zipcodes of the users. Eg, users between 25 miles from the current location. I have other search categories, for which i am using mysql queries. I am unable to figure anything out for the distance issue.
My backend is in php and frontend in Flex.
The best option for me would be something like that of www.zip-codes.com/zip-code-radius-finder.asp. ie, if I should be able to get all the zip-codes available in the specified radial distance. So i can compare this zip-codes to the users zip-codes in my database. And select the ones with a match.
I am developing a elearning site and we have developed our courses in Flash. I want to know how we can prevent our courses from getting download from our site. Technology used for developing website is ASP.NET with C#.
I have made many games is it any way that I can protect my swf from flash developers who want hack my game?First I was tried way load game swf's into preloader swf and call it by Iframe most flash developers just get only my preloader.swf unable to get game. now i am searching way that to protect swf from flash dicompilors???
Is there any "client side only" way to protect a SWF so it'd only be possible to load it from domain X? I'm aware of the server side options such as checking the referrer but unfortunately my server is a "static" CDN where this implementation isn't possible. I wonder why flash cross-domain security files do not seem to handle this scenario as well.
I'm working on important project using Flex framework and i want to keep my algorithms and code secret. Is it possible to somehow protect swf file from being decompiled? I don't want someone extract my code using flash decompilers.
Is flash the best bet to keep images from being stolen? Is there any way to steal images from websites that use flash to display images. I heard that we can use firebug to download flash images. Is this correct?
How would you be able to stop people from downloading flash video from your site instead of viewing it in a flash player. I would like to prevent people from downloading the flash video by ripping the stream. I am not looking for 100% prevention but ways to make this difficult and annoying.
I have been building an application using CS4. I currently load the swf file into a byte array of another swf to prevent easy access, but I have been told that this will not keep out more experienced users. How can I improve on my current method to best protect my code from being stolen?
I have a flash interface that uses php to write/read vars.So if someone wants to hack our website all he has to do is look at the code and send some vars manually to the .php file. I've seen some encryption apps that claim to fully protect your swf but at the same time there are those who claim to decompile protected ones.Is there any better way to protect the php>flash communication?
I have used settings.xml file in my swf file. Now i am very sure, somebody can grab the swf file, decompile it and get the full path of the settings.xml file. If they can do that, they can see everything inside the settings.xml file which contains lots of thing. Now my question is how to protect that xml file from getting grabbed when typed the full URL. One solution is to ecrypt/obfuscate the swf file, but i don't trust them fully. If given a little time, I can myself decrypt the swf.
I need to protect images embedded in a swf file. I've noticed Swf Encrypt scrambles the images, like so:
How is something like this achieved ? How does image scrambling work ? I've noticed the image is stored a bitmap. Not sure how information is stored.I imagine it would be possible to use something like AS3SWF to access the content of a swf, but what would I need to change for the image swf tags ? I don't know much about security/obfuscation/encryption, so any tips will be handy. The programming language for this shouldn't matter much.
I have flash player in my web site for playing the mp3 files.But if someone uses "viewsource" or any browser tools such as firebug, then they can find the parameter and then sort out the actual mp3 file url.I am using php in my back end.
I have a Flash file in which I want to embed a font, but the licence terms for that font mean I can only embed it in a file if that file is security protected to be non-editable. Assuming this means I need to take some sort of precautions to prevent the file being decompiled and the font extracted, is there any way of enforcing this?
Note: I don't care about the code itself being public, I just don't want the font file to be available.
I develop applications with Flash, AS 3.0 and PHP. I need to give the source code to my clients. But once I give them the source code they can also re-sell the applications to other people. So, I have deceided to use some code hiding process so that without my permission the application will not run in any server. In that case I am ready to keep informations in my server. Only my direct client will be able to run the file once they have registered their domain name and other info into my server.
I am making a screensaver and wondered if it is it possible to temporarily or dynamically password protect a Flash movie clip via a user input text field? For example, a user thinks up a password on the spot, types it in, hits a SET button and the mc cannot be disabled without re-entering the correct password. I am new to actionscript and from what I can find on Google it ooks as though the answer could lie in using veriables but i'm not sure how to implement this.
Currently I am using this code to hard wire passwords into my swf files before compiling them in SWF Studio: on (keyPress "<Enter>") { if (password.text == "password") { gotoAndPlay("mc"); } else { feedback.text = "INVALID"; }}
