Is there a way for different flex swf's to send large blocks of data between each other without using localconnection which is size limited or using sharedobjects. This needs to happen on the client without server communication.

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 am working on somethign at the moment which allows a user to use a local connection to send and receive bitmap data. But I am havign a slight problem. Ok so at the moment I am using code from the bytearray live jpeg encoder to encode bitmap data as jpeg and then send it on to another swf opened at the same time when I click on an mc in the send swf.
So here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
// CODE INSIDE OF SENDER
var localConnection:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
import asfiles.encoding.JPEGEncoder;
[Code].....
But what ends up happening each time is that it seems to draw only the bottom right quadrant of the mc I am targeting. As shown by the screenshot I have provided. When the user clicks the first of the blue buttons it should send the whole bitmap.
I have an actionscript function which is supposed to launch a panel and then fill in Networktopology data inside it.As, network data is too large that it consumes much time and makes browser hang!Even I tried to display busy cursor which also stopped spinning when data was being processed.How can I ensure processing large amount of data does not hang the browser.

how much memory (and swf size) the various built-in data types take up in actionscript 3? I'm specifically interested in int, Number, and (dense) Arrays or Vectors. I'm working on a project where I need to embed large amounts of structured array data, which is already in C++ format, so porting is just a matter of copy-paste, search-replace. I've already had a look at Adobe's lowdown on datatypes but it's not specific enough, and doesn't mention Arrays, etc.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to get some data from PHP/MySQL and send it to Flex..Let's say That my object in Flex would look like this:
package some.package.VO {

In my case, personDetails is an Array, and in theory, it could be some other object... But is it really necessary to make it an object? I do not intend to use that data nowhere else except within my VOPerson class. It is some associative array, and I can easily transform it to another object, but there will be lots of similar situations in my app, so I would like to avoid making unnecessary (value) objects if there is no need for it...

I'm trying to send some data to PHP using HTTPService POST but for some reason it's not working. The same example works with GET but not with POST:
private function start():void{
var param:Object = {};
param.date = "2010-10-10";

But when I change the method in HTTPService to GET and in PHP I get the result as expected - PHP sends back the date:
2010-10-10
im calling a module in my flex app, but i need to send it a variable and have no idea how this is done (both sending the variable and then the module retrieving it)...basically, the module generates a tree which gathers data from a PHP-generated XML...so I need the data that is sent to the module to be sent to the PHP file to show the details depending on which page the user is on.
Code:
<mx:ModuleLoader url="lists.swf" width="30%" height="100%" />
just a thought, if I were to add "?id=3" to the SWF, would that work and how would I retrieve that value in the module to use?
I have a login page (that working), if details is correct, i want to go to welcome page, and display the first name and last of the user.

View 1 RepliesIm creating flash game that have the functionality to capture/record its gameplay that can be viewed later by the user, like a replay.
As for now Im already able to record the game and write it into a flv format in a ByteArray variable.
What Im working right now is how to send that ByteArray(the video file) to a php script and save it to a web server.
I've run into the URLLoader in flash where it can send the data and php will receive it thru the POST method. Unfortunately, the ByteArray containing the flv data must be first correclty encoded for php to read it. I figured this out from the example in the net where it does the same thing only that it is only sending a JPEG ByteArray instead of a FLV format using the JPEGENCODER.
Is there any existing class like the JpegEncoder for FLV format or any Video formats? Or any work around like creating the encoder my self?
here is my current code to send the ByteArray
//send byteArray to a php script
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

I want to send data from Red5 to Flex using remote sharedobject.
my Red5 code :
this.addScheduledJob(5000,new IScheduledJob() {

it doesn't shows error or warning, but my flex function doesn't work, even Alert in my function not working.
I'm writing a Comet-like app using Flex on the client and my own hand-written server.
I need to be able to send short bursts of data from the client at quite a high frequency (e.g. of the order of 10ms between sends).
I also need the server to push short bursts of data at a similarly high frequency.
I'm using NetConnection.call() to send the data to the server, and URLStream (with chunked encoding) to push the data from the server to the client.
What I've found is that the data isn't being sent/received as soon as it's available. For example, in IE, it seems the data is sent every 200ms rather than as soon as NetConnection.call() is called. Similarly, URLStream isn't making the data available as soon as the server is sending it.
Judging by the difference in behaviour between the browsers, it seems as though the Flash Player (version 10) is relying on the host browser to do all the comms. Can anyone confirm this? Update: This is very likely as only the host browser would know about the proxy settings that might be set.
I've tried using the Socket class and there's no problem with speed there: it works perfectly. However, I'd like to be able to use HTTP-based (port 80) connections so that my app can run in heavily fire-walled environments (I tried using a Socket over port 80, but that has its problems).
Incidentally, all development/testing has been done on an internal LAN, so bandwidth/latency is not an issue.
Update: The data being sent/received is in small packets and doesn't need to be in any particular format. For example, I might need to send a short array of Numbers, and this could either be encoded in AMF (e.g. via NetConnection.call()) or could be put into GET parameters (e.g. using sendToURL()). The main point of my question is really to see whether anyone else has experienced the same problem in calling NetConnection/URLStream frequently, and whether there is a workaround (it's also possible that the fault lies with my server code of course, rather than Flash).
I'm new to Flex and couldn't figure out yet how to send binary data to the server as the body of a POST request. The HTTPService component doesn't seem to support this. The FileReference doesn't seem to support setting the data via the Flex API.

I have the following JAX-RS service.[code]...
The JAX-RS service receives the request and respond successfully with some dummy response, but I have no access to the request.data field.
How do I access the data of the request message (which is {"type":"get_configuration","data":"some data"} in this particular example)? I think that I'm supposed to add some parameters to the handleMessage method like
public SomeResponse handleMessage(Object message) {...
but this does not work at all. The request got 415 response.
I have two swf files that I would like to communicate back and forth. Currently, I am able to get the LocalConnection to work one way.

I am working on an Adobe AIR (2.0) application that contains a feature to allow users to print documents (such as salary slips). Those documents are originally in PDF format. Due to circumstances we cannot directly display those PDFs in the AIR application (for example using flash.html.HTMLLoader). Therefore we convert the PDFs to SWFs (using the pdf2swf tool, see The SWFs are loaded into the application using a mx.controls.SWFLoader, like so:

I'm using a localconnection to allow communication between an actionscript 2 swf and an actionscript 3 swf.Localconnection objects share a global namespace across a user's pc.So, this means, a user can fire up my flash app in one browser, and submit commands, back and forth, which is what i want. But the user can also fire up another browser, and all commands sent to my application will be handled by the first application if its still loaded in the first browser.When I make the LocalConnection, I specify an id, but the id must be known to the actionscript 2 swfs, and therein I find a problem. I don't know how to let the actionscript 2 swfs know what the unique id is.
View 1 RepliesI 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.
I just dont get it - the swfs are in the same folder, hows that possible?
View 1 RepliesI'm working on implementing communication between an Adobe AIR app and a browser Flash object, and the LocalConnection documentation mentions an asyncError as a potential event:
asyncError: Dispatched when an exception is thrown asynchronously — that is, from native asynchronous code.
However, that's the only documentation I can find on it. Does anyone know what this error actually means? I've searched around but couldn't find any reference -- most sample code I found does an addEventListener() for the asyncError but doesn't give any clue as to what it means or when it could occur (i.e. if it could occur when sending or when recieving).The Adobe documentation page also lists potential events for each method, but asyncError isn't listed under any specific method, only for the general class.
I've doing a bit of "training" at working with Flex and Remote Data from XML files.This is my HTTPService
<mx:HTTPService id="loginData" url="com-handler/basic.xml" showBusyCursor="true">
</mx:HTTPService>
I have a button and when its clicked its call a function, that calls loginData.send and does a little IF condition, that IF condition relies on the data returned by loginData.The condition doesn't work because its called right next to the loginData.send, and .send method still didn't returned the values from the XML file. But if you click it a second time a second after the first click the IF condition works.So to deal with i wanted to do a eventListener so that when loginData.send returned the data from the XML it fires up the IF condition. But i don't know how to do it.
