So i have several SWFs in this project and i need to find a way to ensure that only a single instance of one of these SWFs can load. For example, you cannot open 2 different application SWFs in 2 different browsers, or tabs on the same computer at the same time. LocalConnection seemed to be the best solution to this problem, however, we are experiencing problems with Internet Explorer 9.

I wok on desktop Adobe AIR application. It creates .DMG for mac os builds. It is actually command line application. What I want is the ability to call it from command line - add it .../*.app/Content/MacOS to $PATH. Is there any standard way to do it with AIR ? I need it to work on Windows as well.
View 1 RepliesWe know that, with Android NDK we can use .C files along with .java files in a single android application. Similarly, is it possible to use Adobe Flash and Java files in a single android application ?

View 2 Replieshow can i delete storage directory instances or folder while uninstalling any air application. In my application when i first time run my application, application copy some data from application directory to application storage directory. now i want to delete all data and application directory folder also while uninstalling application.
I am doing that because when i launch any update then application is accessing old data which conflict with my application new features.
When you export a release build of an air app, it creates an .AIR file, that you can then double-click. When you do so, it asks you if you want to "Add shortcut icon to my desktop" and "Start application after installation".
I need to call specific ActionScript within my AIR application if and only if it was launched by the installer (the 2nd checkbox was selected) - As opposed to the user re-running it from the start menu after having installed it.
How can I detect this within my program?
I'm using CS3 and want to know if it's possible to give more than 1 instance name to a single MC using AS2? The reason I ask is I have a bunch of templates that I want to load (one at a time) into a master swf that will be used for scaling & positioning of movie clips (which data will be saved to an XML file) in all the loaded swf files. I would like to have some code in the loaded clips that the master swf could use for controlling it's movie clips. This code would reassign the clips a second name so the master swf recognizes the clips in the loaded swfs and is able to manipulate them.
The problem now is I have a lot of template swf files with all different named movie clips and changing all of there instance names one by one will take a long time.I imagine that unless the clips were allowed 2 different names and were just assigned a new one, that it would stop any preexisting code from working correctly.
The mc instance called float1 is being multiplied and placed all over the place throughout 5 layers thanks to this code. How can I add ONE SINGLE different instance in the topmost layer? I don't mean just floating there, but in the TOPMOST layer. If anyone did it, could you also tell me how to position the instance in the matrix/layer?
ActionScript Code:
var randint = int(Math.random() * 2) + 1; // get a number between 10-69
//define number of layer.
var numLayersuint = 5;

My problem occurs when I try to load multiple images in one class in AS3.[code]My problem with this is, that every complete-method receives the same image. Sometimes they all get img1.jpg, sometimes they all get img3.jpg....I don't have any clue why this is happening.[code]Now the different Bitmaps and Loaders have distinct names and are called within the same method call. The event handlers now are inline.
View 2 RepliesI want to run certain dll/exe from my AIR app such that I am able to send/receive data from them. I know we can do so by using External API or Java or Merapi project but they require that we start 2 different applications ( or I loose the custom chrome of AIR). What I want is that the user starts just one application (i.e a single exe/air).
If .air file is not possible, then can we retain the custom chrome of AIR and do something.Also, its better if the solution is open source and free ( unlike Shu).
I want to get my movieclip "dial_graphcis_mph" to start at X position 0, move to X position -292.35,move back to X position -220, and then yoyo between -230 and -220.Is it possible to do this without using the TweenTimeline class or similar?I want to keep all the code on the stage with the movieclip if possible...The following code only yoyos between 0 and -292.35.
stop();

var tweenMPH = new Tween(dial_graphics_mph, "x", Strong.easeInOut, 0, -292.35, 6, true);

View 1 RepliesIf I'm streaming live video and chatting in an FMS app, should each component have its own instance of NetConnection or should they share one? Was thinking perhaps the quality of the live video stream would be hurt in a sharing situation but am not sure the architecture works like that.
From a development standpoint, I'd like to make one NetConnection instance in my main application file and connect with it. Then, when successfully connected, I'd like to pass that connection into any custom components that need it.
Since there is no way that you can make the flash object transparent, there needs to be some other means by which you can match the background. I thought of maybe creating a ActionScript/Javascript bridge, but I wonder if this is the route to take.
View 3 RepliesAnyone know how to change a single instance of an item renderer for a Flex tree item at runtime? To reiterate, I'm not trying to change the entire tree's item renderer like this:tree.itemRenderer = new ClassFactory(ItemRenderer2);I'm trying to change the item renderer of a single tree item like this (the following code does not work):tree.selectedItem.itemRenderer = new ClassFactory(ItemRenderer2);To put it more simply, does anyone know how to reference an instance of an item renderer and set it to a new item renderer class? I've tried using the Tree's itemToItemRenderer() method with no success.
View 1 RepliesI have an application running in FMIS 3.5. Everything is working. Now I want to create two application instances, one for a live stream and one for a development stream. That way I can test my application against the development stream without interfering with the application that manages the live stream.So first I created folders under my application. Say the application's name is test. I created two folders, dev and live. Then I changed my Flex 3 applications so that they would write to rtmp://mydomain.com/test/live/stream. But the application still records the live stream in test, not test/live.[code]
I restarted my vhost. My application still records my live stream into the test folder instead of test/live.So I removed those entries and restarted my vhost.Then I added a folder called streams below my test folder. And I added dev and live subfolders below streams. I saw this on another post somewhere. But this didn't work either.I have not been able to find the configuration element(s) that enable multiple instances in one application.Am I missing a configuration parameter somewhere or is this a bug in 3.5?

I had created a flash which load several images and display it using loadMovieClip(). I need the images to load in a specific order according to the information retrieve from a xml file. However, my scripts only works well if it was tested in my local computer. In online environment, the images seems to load in a random sequence. so that the images loads according to the xml order?

Does creating a new instance of an Object that uses an identical name to an older instance, delete the previous instance? Or should the original instance be deleted first? The code uses a ridiculous amount of XML vars. Isn't it less memory intensive to parse the XML and save the properties to an Object, and then delete the XML Object, rather than keep the XML Object around and reference it's child nodes directly? Is it better form to break up a huge XML file (>600lines/3200vars) into smaller chunks?
View 1 RepliesI have a library object (SomethingMC) which extends a custom class (Something).

Few users of my Flex 4.6 web application are complaining, that the mx.controls.PopUpButton at the right bottom corner of it sometimes opens a List underneath it and is thus unusable (I can't reproduce that myself - probably an unlucky combination of their Flash player and/or font size setting?)
How could I ensure, that the popUp component (in my case it is a spark.components.List) always opens above the PopUpButton?
I suspect, that I should create a skin based on mx.skins.halo.PopUpButtonSkin and assign it to my PopUpButton? And I probably should use the PopUpPosition.ABOVE constant together with the PopUpAnchor?

I still can't reproduce the bug myself, my users aren't very helpful (mostly older folks, playing my card game). I've searched in Adobe JIRA, but couldn't find such a bug.

Or if I should put the _list into some container...
