I would like to execute a CMD command from my flex application programmatically. Something like
> mediaplayer.exe "mySong.mp3"
I also tried using fscommand but was not successful. While googling I learnt that its not supported by AIR. I would like to know if there is any other alternative for executing the commands.
We have a web-framework with Flex and Java, whose basic functionality is to execute commands at the background(Unix) and parse and send it back to the client(Flex). This works fine for all silent commands.
We are using Runtime,process to execute commands at java side on request from flex side. The same we need to do for interactive commands/scripts as well.
im trying to make a text box in flash... soo when someone types something in one line and hits enter... the line gets executed... how do u do that?? and plus I want that text box to send commands to IRC basically how can i execute irc commands in flash....
View 3 RepliesI am trying to find out if it is possible to a) create a semi transparent box in flash, b) motion tween that box into place, c) subsequently use it to run forms and PHP scripts (connect to a MySQL instance, ect). I know that an exact answer to c) will be long and complex, so a simple (general) yes or no will suffice... but if someone could point me in more detailed direction with a) and b), If you need to see the actual project I'm working on, or if I need to clarify my questions,

I've got 13 movieclips that all run a function (setNames) contained in a child object (namer) it contains. The function displays text in a dynamic text boxI've set them up with the instance names mark0 > mark12 so I can target them with a loop and array notation which is something I often use. But the loop sometimes doesn't work, however a list of 13 separate lines of code works fine. Am I overloading Flash with too much code commands at once, and is there a way around this?This doesn't work...
for(i = 0; i<13; i++) {
//sets names
this["mark"+i].namer.setNames();
[code]......
Can we run command prompt commands (like copy, rename etc) from an AIR or flex application?I thought of creating a bat file and running it using fscommand, but that does`nt serve my purpose.

View 1 RepliesI see the benefit of asynchronous commands (waiting for server responses...) but in my flex app it creates me more problem than anything. Here's what I want: EVERY command executes only after the previous one returned (to result or fault function) And I'd like to do this as easily as possible.. by the way the GUI must become irresponsive (maybe a wait message) while a long command is being executed (I could show the wait message in the execute function and remove it in the fault or result function..)
View 1 RepliesI have a dataGrid with a dataProvider "documents"A column of the datagrid has a labelFunction that gets the project_id field of the document, and returns the project name, from a bindable variable "projects"Now, I dispatch the events to download from the server the documents and the projects, but If the documents get downloaded before the projects, then the label function gives an error (no "projects" variable)Therefore, I must serialize the commands being executed: the getDocuments command must execute only after the getProjects command.In the real world, though, I have dozens of resources being downloaded, and those command are not always grouped together (so I can't for example execute the second command from the onSuccess() method of the first, because not always they must be executed together..)..

View 2 RepliesI'm building Flex 3 application and I have a geocoding service (http://.../GeocodeServer) on a ArcGIS server (ESRI). I'm trying to execute a query on this service in order to retrieve some informations.

It's definitely not the URL that is invalid since my locator uses it without any problem.
When I place some codes in a keyframe, these codes are showing on all the following frames up till the next keyframe with codes. My question is, does Flash execute codes only in the keyframe or it execute whatever is in the frame regardless whether its a keyframe or not?
View 1 RepliesI am currently using ExternalInterface to call JS functions from Flex. Is it possible to do the same the other way around: have Flex execute a function when a certain trigger is executed in JS? I want to have a Flash app with buttons in HTML that when pressed call functions inside the Flex app.
View 1 RepliesI am developing an lib which tracks user events, like button click, state change, module load and application finish.
My problem is how I can track the application finish event. I googled for it, but I found no good answer.
For some reason, the ExternalInterface.avaiable shows true, but it won't call alert(). Can anyone shed some light to this problem?
private function checkEI():void {
eiStatus = ExternalInterface.available.toString();

In Flex, I'm making a set of asynchronous calls:
service.method1.send().addResponder(responder1);
service.method2.send().addResponder(responder2);
service.method3.send().addResponder(responder3);
I want to execute some code after all of these service calls have returned (either success or failure, I don't care which). How can I do this?
I have a Flex client application. I need a clean up function to run in Flex when the user closes the browser. I found the following solution on the net, but it only works half-way for me. How could I fix it?CustomEvent triggered, but not executed. >> EventHandler for CustomEvent.SEND_EVENTS is defined by a Mate EventMap. All the handler does is to call an HTTPServiceInvoker. In debug console, I'm able to see the handler and HTTPServiceInvoker being triggered, but neither the resultHandlers nor the faultHandlers were called. I know this event handler has no problem because when I dispatch the same CustomEvent.SEND_EVENTS in a button click handler, it behaves exactly as I expected)Browser seems to wait for cleanUp function to complete before it closes. (all traces were printed before browser closes down)
Code
I added the following into the index.template.html
window.onbeforeunload = clean_up;
[code].....
Flex having any init(), destroy() method. Like Servlet init()method will run at Application initialize and never call it again if Refresh the Page also.
View 2 RepliesI've had flash for a long time now but I've only decided to take a good look at it recently. I was looking around the net for tutorials and the like when I came across an interface that was only 50k by Synez. I don't know if you guys have seen it, but it looks larger than 50k to me, yet it's not. I downloaded the .fla file and looked at what the designer used the if tag a lot on the buttons and even certain frames. I guess this way he didn't have to remake anything and this contributed greatly to the file size since he reused existing movie clips.
Say for example that I make a movie clip where the buttons shoot out from nowhere. From this movie clip, I want to target another movie clip, the one with the content on it, without having to add anything to the buttons' movie. know how to use the "if" tags.

I have BUTTON_A inside MOVIECLIP_A on frame 1 this script on BUTTON_A is:
//goto the root and goto frame2
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);
[Code]....
THE PROBLEM: I cannot get flash to do both commands from BUTTON_A. When BUTTON_A is clicked, its supposed to goto frame 2 AND show a blue square (just a simple graphic) AND loadMovie into the container 'MOVIECLIP_B'
I can't seemed to get both commands to work simultaneously. DId I write this script incorrectly?
Is it possible to have one function do two things?[code]...
View 3 RepliesThe execution of JSFL files seems to have slowed down in Flash CS5. Or, at least, the updating of the display has been severely slowed down. I have a command I use all the time -- so much that I don't even think about it -- that worked fine in CS4 and earlier, but in CS5 it seems to execute too slowly. My command is a replacement for the "Step Forward One Frame" and "Step Backward One Frame" commands in the control menu (the "<" and ">" keys). I wrote them so that the selected symbols remain selected when going to a new keyframe. Of course, I use this all the time just like I did with the original "<" and ">" keys, and they need to run fast enough that I don't notice their execution time. They don't do that much processing at all, so it really shouldn't be a problem.
I also wrote some functions for profiling, and they indicate that the command is actually running in a reasonable amount of time (around 50ms). When I run it again immediately, though, the execution time balloons to about 300ms. Not only that, but in both cases the display takes its sweet time updating itself. It seems to wait until all activity is finished, and then updates. This means that when I execute the command repeatedly (keyboard-scrubbing the timeline) I don't get to see the current state of the stage until I stop completely and wait for it to update.
As I said before, I never had trouble with this in CS4 and earlier. So my question is: is there any way to tell Flash to update its display in a command, so that I don't have to wait for Flash to get around to it? Relatedly, is there any way to give the javascript interface a higher priority so it'll execute commands faster? keys). I wrote them so that the selected symbols remain selected when going to a new keyframe. Of course, I use this all the time just like I did with the original
