How can i benchmark a website ? i want to define how many user can i handle simultaneously. I don't think that matters but the site is a Flex application that consumes some services provided by tomcat's servlet
View 2 RepliesIs there a way to find how long a function takes to execute beyond 1ms resolution:
time1 = getTimer();
//Do something
time2 = getTimer();
totalTime = time2 - time1;
I performed a benchmark test memory consumption by three DisplayObjects - MovieClip, Sprite, and Shape.
Below are results and method used. I just wanted to create instances. Test with adding instnaces to display list showed a slight difference in terms of memory consumption.
Observations: Sprite uses from 16 to 22% with average 18% less memory than MoviClip.
Shape uses from 42 to 55% with average of 46% less memory than MovieClip.
Shape uses from 32 to 42% with average of 35% less memory than Sprite.

We're on the way to buy a 1 CPU license for FMES4 and I'm looking if anyone can provide real world benchmarks. We will use a Intel X5680 CPU with dual Port 10Ge NIC and we're wondering how much concurrent p2p RTMFP Session the server will be able to handle.
If a p2p RTMFP Session can not be created we want fallback to another server instance with the cheaper FMIS4 on it, is this the right way to handle this?
How do I get the IP address of a certain website using Flex 4 via an AIR application? I know that this is do-able using ping but how can I replicate the same only this time, using AS3 in Flex 4 and as an AIR application.

View 2 Repliesis it possible to make a Flex-application to only run from my domain? So a user can't copy the .swf and start it locally.
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to use Google Adsense on a Flex website? I've read that while Flex can interpret PHP and Javascript, it can't directly load PHP or Javascript. Therefore, it can't handle the ad invocation codes.
All the "pages" of my flex site run straight down the middle with no variation. And I've got a logo at the top of the page. So, I was thinking that it might be possible to add the Google Adsense code in Flex's HTML template. As all of my "pages" have the same lay-out, content won't overlap any ads.
I also read that there are some cross-platform/cross-browser problems using DIV layers with Flex-- that in some browsers the Flash content will render on top of all other content, regardless of depth.
I want to create flash website, with flex, but i don't really know how it works so can you make it clear for me.
1) First of all i want to know how URL is working with flash, because every time i load new URL will flash website be reloaded? How to solve this problem, if it is problem?
2)I want to use "Swfobject" with my flash website so this website will be Search Engines friendly and does this mean that i can easily use Adsense or Adbrite in my website?
What's the risk if it is between 2 websites or 2 webservices or between a site url and flash or embedded javascript ?

I have a website which is built totally in flex.
I want to make a button, on the click of which the browser becomes fullscreen. I am not talking about a flex fullscreen, by which i mean "Application.application.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;" I dont want to use this.
The reason, I dont want to use it is, that flash does not supports keyboard on flex-fullscreen. But if i can make the browser fullscreen, it will solve my purpose.
I was wondering if there is a website from where I can download free mp3 files to use in my flex project? I am looking for some mp3 files using which I can create simple sound effects (e.g., you press a button, you hear a sound). I read flex can only play mp3 files, not wav files. Is this true? What's the best way to convert wav files to mp3?
View 1 RepliesBefore converting Flash into iPhone app, I still need to understand some questions.
1) Is the converted app able to read XML code from the website like RSS or custom script?
2) 3rd party API are not allowed to be download but assets like Images, sounds or reading data from MySQL db is allow?
3) Anyone port from Flex 4 yet?
I've got a crossdomain.xml file which allows SWFs running on only a certain few domains to download resources from my domain. However, one simple way around this is for a user to download the SWF to their local machine, and run it there (i.e. by double-clicking on it within Windows Explorer, not by running through [url]... It seems that when this happens, the crossdomain.xml file is ignored.[code]...
Is it possible to do something on the server side to stop a locally running SWF to download from my site? I tried checking the referrer but this field often isn't populated.
I'm evaluating the differences between the purePDF and alivePDF libraries in flex, and I'm setting up some IO code so that I can save documents from either from a web based flex application.
AlivePDF gives a very convenient save() function that sends the data to a web service, which can simply bounce it back using Content-Disposition: Attatchment, but PurePDF has no such feature. How can I send the PDF data from purePDF to a webservice in a similar way?
Does websites created by Flex Builder works on every browsers that use Flash ?
View 2 RepliesI am a Flex/Java developer, in the process of creating a Financial/Trading website for a start-up company.The default look and feel of Flex (out of the box) is pretty plain and bland (in terms of the default styles). Can anybody recommend the easiest way for me (as a developer) to make the website look as polished and professional as possible?
What is am looking for is:
A professional style/theme to the website Use of polished images/icons Use of some Flash components for the intro/welcome page. The quickest way to get this styling/images/icons done - should I outsource this to an on-line company?I have been looking at Flash Catalyst as an option but images need to be created first in Photoshop (which as a product I do not know).
I'm looking for a good solution to automate testing of a website, major parts of which are in flash/flex.
The preferred language is c#, but I wouldn't mind java, python or php if the solution on any of those languages is better (meaning, easier to write on, less bugs and more tutorials and samples).
What is the best framework around for flash automation in my case?

View 6 Repliesi want to see if these "build a." flash sites (to support a user customized ordering process) are done using regular flash or Flex?
[Code].....
All of these "walk a user" through a customized ordering process and capture all of their selection and showing them all of their customizations (and ultimately bring them to a final ordering screen). What's going on under the hood on these sites and are built in flash or flex? Is the person creating a separate image for every combination that you could possibly select or is something else happening here?
I still can't figure out if Flex or Flash is better for something like this. (why does adobe make these seemingly basic questions so complicated) Are there any good resource or tutorials for try to build this type of functionality in flash on a website?

View 1 RepliesI've just about got my first site finished, but am having a few issues with publishing it, firstly, I can't get any browser to load it with a scroll bar - if it goes beyond the dimensions of the page the viewer is unable to see anything which is cropped.Secondly the alignment is fine in firefox, but totally off in safari and internet explorer.And lastly (and its a biggy) I can't work out which files and which order of files to upload to my server in order to get the damn thing live!

View 6 RepliesI have created a slideshow based solely on actionscript and a bit of XML. It includes a delay which dictates when the pictures fade in/ out. When I view the .swf on my computer the slideshow works perfectly. But, when the slideshow is put on my website the delay is not correct, meaning some pictures transition too fast or sometimes too slow, depending on which computer/browser is being used.
I have tried publishing the file in flash versions 7 - 9.
There are only 15 pictures that need to be loaded, each less than 50kb, so I don't think that really matters. The file size of the .swf file is less than 1kb, so I don't think that has any effect either.
So, I was wondering if there is anything that I may need to add to the code to make sure that things flow smoothly? Or is there some publish setting that I need to change?
