Flash :: Dispose GC Root YES Object With 1 Unknown Path?
Jul 13, 2011
I am in a very peculiar situation here with my AS3 code. I was profiling my app in Flash Builder 4.5.1 as it seemed that it wasn't GC-ing some objects properly.
how to get rid of this object? Or how to determine what is holding it alive?
What does 1 Path mean? What is that GC Root and how it got there?
I am using robotlegs with IModuleContext, SignalCommandMap, LazyMediatorMap.
EDIT #1: It could be related to the robotlegs injector issue... or not, still waiting for some answers.

This is a head scratcher. Why would a root relative path cause a Security Sandbox error.. but an absolute path to the exact same path work fine..

I would like to compile my flex application with a services-config.xml file. However, I am forced to supply a context.root. In my setup, the context root (context path) isn't known until my .war file is named and dropped into the webapps directory.

I'm working with eclipse, blazeds and Flex Plugin, and every time I create a Web Dynamic Project then add a Flex Project Nature to it this error: "An unknown item is declared as the root of your mxml document" appears just as the perspective view changes and I click on the design mode. As far as I know the only lines of code written on the screen are the standard in any other program, but I'll put here anyway so you can have a go at it if there's something realyy wrong and I didn't see:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">

I am working on a project that is primarily ASP.NET based. The main project is meant to be deployed to multiple locations for different clients, so one client might be located at website.com/client1 and another at website.com/client2. Within the application, we regularly use the application root operator ~ to get the path to a resource.
We also have a bunch of Flex applications that get deployed in there, and many rely on web services within the ASP.NET application. What I'm after is a way to reference the services relative to the application root. Here's an example of the location of some files for two client deployments:
[URL]
FlexApplication and webService are both exactly the same, so what I want to do is something like this in the Flex code:
var myService:CustomService = new CustomService(~/services/webService.asmx);
myService.callMethod("Test");
I would like to avoid using relative paths for the usual reasons. Is there a good way to do this or a good way to pass the root url to the flex application from ASP.NET?

I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.

I've made an user login, working with php and MySQL. When the user logs in, he can see all of his details, loaded from a database. Here he can press a button to change this content. After changing it, he needs to press the "save" button to load the new data into the database. But everytime the user presses the save button, it's adding an extra line to the data into the database, which results in an error of displaying the data. Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0 Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required 'google_verify.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

I have a root stage, and a MC that is called from the root stage.Now from that MC, i will called in another MC2, and I wanted to placed the MC in the center of the stage. The reason I could not use normal ADDED_TO_STAGE at MC and define the center is because MC is not place in the exact position of the root stage (as in x, y=0). So if I would target MC2 at MC stage center, it would not be the exact center of the root stage/screen.How can I called the root stage properties rather than adding MC2 into the stage?

I'm having a problem with this code for selecting a character for a game. The scrolling left and right codes work but when it comes to accepting the highlighted character.[code]All I want is for it to take the label of the current frame in the movie clip (which I defined already) and set it to a string, selectedChar.[code] p1c is an instance of the movieClip containing the characters.

I'm trying to create a NetConnection object in action script 2 and I get this error. I get the same error when I try to create a NetStream object. I've looked at many other examples using NetConnection and they don't import anything relating to NetConnection. Is there something in the Flash settings that I need to set in order to get this working?

Is it possible to pull the currentFrame of the root timeline from inside an object class? Normally a currentFrame call only checks the frame of the movieclip it's attached to within an object class, so how would you go about checking the frame of the entire project from within the object class file?
edit: Nevermind, I found what I was looking for. All you have to do is use MovieClip(root).currentFrame and it works just fine. Consider the question answered.

I'm trying to trace the path of an object by using setPixel on the object's position every frame in a BitmapData/Bitmap pairing. These pixels aren't showing up normally and I suspect I have a fundamental misunderstanding of the BitmapData class. Here's what I'm doing:
public var contrailBase:BitmapData;
public var contrail:Bitmap;
private var contrailColor:uint;[code].....
Using this code, the red pixels don't show up. If I initialize contrailBase to 0xFF000000 instead then I get a black screen on which the red pixels DO draw, but I need the bitmap to be transparent except for the contrail. What am I doing wrong?

I'm working on a function that replaces an existing movie clip with a symbol from the library and then designates an "updater" function for the new instance. I have the first part working as intended, but I'm not sure how to approach creating the "updater" function.I've considered using event listeners, but I'm not sure if that is my best option.The following is a excerpt from my code. This code is on the timeline of a movie clip. The movie clip is on the main timeline with an instance name of slideUpPanel_mc.
ActionScript Code:
var window_mc:MovieClip = window_mc; //window_mc as it exists on the timeline
var windowUpdateFunc:Function; //reference to updater function in window_mc

the same class is passed to the mxmlc compiler in SWF library as a symbol linkage class and again in a source-path. But the compiler uses the definition from the source-path so creating new instance of that class won't create new instance of the library symbol. How do I tell the compiler to prefer the definition linked to the symbol (the one dfrom SWC)?
I have my design assets in an FLA file and they are linked to classes (e.g. [URL]. Then I export those assets to a SWC library and pass it to the compiler. Now when I create an instance of the class (new MyAsset();) it will be a new instance of the library object.
But there are other classes too in the source folder (e.g. "com.myproject.model.*" so I need to pass the source folder to the compiler too. And that is the problem, now the compiler will use the MyAsset.as definition from the source path, not from the SWC where it is assigned to the library object so if I create new instance of MyAsset now it won't duplicate the library object.
