Flex :: Load Method In FileReference?
Aug 14, 2009Can I implement the "load" method in FileReference in other way? My client use FP 9 and this method is implemented in FP 10. I am using BlazeDS + Spring and I want to upload images.

View 1 RepliesI'm going to implement a file uploading application using flex 3.5 and php. In the flex code I need to read the content of the uploaded file without calling the FileReference.load() method (Since it is a big issue when uploading large files). I checked many online articles and didn't find a way to do this in flex.access the content of this file without using FileReference.load() method?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to use the load method of FileReference object to load the data and use it to display a thumbnail of the selected image.However, after calling fr.load(), fr.data remains null.I'm using Flex Builder 3.0.2 on Windows 7 with Flex SDK 3.4 and Flash Player 10 Debug. If I evaluate fr.load() in Eclipse's watch variables list, I get an error reading "No such variable: load."
View 4 Replieshow to incorporate FileReference method like Upload into a Cairngorm architecture.Specifically, I would think to fire an event with the File in it, and that's fine. But how would one then be able to listen for e.g. Progress Events?One thing I thought is to have the delegate fire off progress events that are listened for in the View.
View 1 RepliesI want to save XML File using Flex 4 SDK
var fr:FileReference=new FileReference();
fr.save( newXmlRow, 'D:/Sample.xml' );
Error Shows :
1061 "Call to possibly Undefined method save through a reference with static type flash.net:FileReference"
I used Flash player 10, and Flex SDK 3.4. The code as followings:
// Following comes callbacks
function imageLoadOpenCallback(evt:Event):void
{
trace("in--open");
}
function imageLoadCompleteCallback(evt:Event):void
[Code]...
Only the imageSelectCancelCallback handler get called when I select some files in the dialog. But no load/open/io_error handler get called at all. I have Google some code example, in which it used FileReference instead of FileReferenceList. I don't know the reason,
I am currently working in Flex 3.0 I am getting an error(screen shot is given below). I am using Flash Player Version 10.0Currently I am calling the HTTPService and in the resultHandler of that HTTPService i am getting an error in method filereference.save() .because this method is called only when the MouseEvent or Keyboard event is occured.Is there any solution to overcome this situation or in other words calling the filereference.save method in ResultHandler.
View 3 RepliesSo there I was, creating a small app that allowed user to upload custom images. Everything went smooth, until......<insert horror music here> So you want to validate that its an image, and not something else. Well you restrict it with the File filter...but there are ways around that. So as a double check, you check the file type after a file is selected. <drum roll>
Awesome, the type method returns null if the image doesnt have the proper headers....what the hell....So most images are compressed for smaller file size, thus the headers are stripped out. So...Type method appears to be useless....There was a simple way around this using the name method..but what the hell...type method is weak!!
As URLLoader launches requests without any issue (I'm monitoring network and flash activities via FireBug in FF 3.6.13), the FileReference upload method doesn't. The odd thing is that no error is thrown AND (the strangiest) the complete and the progress events are correctly fired while no request has been done, and my php isn't receiving anything !
ActionScript Code:

Is there a way to set a default extension when saving an image using FileReference save method?
Code:
var fileReference:FileReference = new FileReference();
fileReference.save( pngData, "image.png" );
If windows is set to "hide known file extensions", only image without extension will be displayed in save dialog. File type is "*.*". Some of my users hat the great idea to add .jpg extension in filename, because they couldn't see one. So file was saved broken as image.jpg.
I am using the FileReference class in ActionScript 2.0.Is there a way that I can receive a response in a XML format from PHP into the onComplete method of the FileReference listener?Basically, what I want to do is upload a file and when the upload is complete, I want to receive an XML format response.

I have a basic photo editor I am building in flash but I want the user to be able to load an image into flash before its output to the server. Can this be done or does it have to go to the server first then have flash load it from the server? Trying to avoid the overhead and traffic of sending it on place then downloading the same thing back.
View 8 RepliesOK, from what I know actionscript in Flex runs asynchronously. I need the ability to run a method in a loop synchronously. Consider this code:

public function CustomerContainer ()

This is not my exact situation as it is a bit more complicated to explain here. There is an abstract class and several custom view objects derived from it. Some of the views are dependent on others being completed first but I cannot seem to order them in the correct order. TIMERS are not an option. Probably not explaining this correctly.
Let me start by saying I have no intention of using php and I can't wait until flash cs5 comes out with its new read/write capabilities want to load and save XML files (stored on my local hard-drive) in AS3.I am using the FileReference class.Firstly I have noticed that when using FileReference.save if you replace an existing file instead of writing over the file data is appended to the end of the file. Can I make it so the file is overwritten (as it should be) or make it impossible for the user to save in such a situation.Secondly I want to load in text from an external file using FileReference.load I know that somehow you use FileReference.browse first to get it to work but I want to know exactly how to do it.I have looked for a tutorial about loading text in this manner and have not found one.
View 5 RepliesI'm loading a bitmap with FileReference.load() and than dump the byteArray into a Loader object and than add that loader object to stage.The problem is that regardless if I load the loader into a Sprite or add it to the stage, neither the loader or the sprite don't have width or height. It's always 0. So I can't scale the image as I don't know it's dimensions
View 5 RepliesI would like to store a FileReference object somehow and load it when the SWF loads again. I tried to use the SharedObject class but it does not seem to work. I suspect that what I want to do is not doable due to security issues (not using Adobe AIR), but I wanted to check. Any way to store a FileReference object please and load it when the SWF is restarted?
View 1 RepliesI want to load a user's file to a specific size within the stage then after a user uploads their image and places stickers on it, I want them to be able to save their image including part of the artwork from the stage (ex. a framing element).
View 1 RepliesI am currently using filereference in as3 to load a file from the users local disk and display instantly within a loader on the stage. This works fine but i am now needing to load files that are already stored on a server not the local disk, is this possible?
I have tried loading the url into a loader object but this takes far too long if the image is quite big where is filereference is almost instant.
My current code is:
Code:
var mFileReference:FileReference;
browseButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBrowseButtonClicked);
function onBrowseButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {

Is there anyway i can take out the browse and selected stages and just load the server based image?
access raw file data as FileReference.load() loads it in memory?
View 2 RepliesI have an html page with a flash object that provides video chat using stratus.I want to enable file sharing from a different UI on the same html page.I want to use the same stratus connection to send the file.Is it possible to create a small flash object that will present a browse button and let the user choose a file and then pass the FileReference or file details to the stratus object to send it?
View 1 RepliesThe purpose of this is too allow a user to upload an image from their machine to be displayed on a website. The code's pretty straight forward and i have it all working fine, but have come across an issue. When certain portrait images are selected to be loaded and displayed, they get rotated at some point in the process and become landscape? There doesn't appear to be any consistency to the way they are rotated. Some are clockwise, some counter clockwise.
The one thing i've noticed though, is that it doesn't appear to be an issue with images that have been re-saved (so simply taken into photoshop and then saved without any modification), only images that are the original source of an image taken by a digital camera? This has got me wondering whether there's a possible issue with flash reading the meta data of the source image? The attached zip file contains the source code and swf, a selection of images from 2 different camera's and a modified image.
Just to note, due to the dimensions of the images, in the source code the bitmap is scaled to 0.1 so that the result can be clearly seen. I've tested this without the scaling and the image still gets rotated. There's a trace in the Event.COMPLETE handler of the Loader.loadbytes() method and you can see from this that the width and height of the loaded image have been switched? Note - due to the size of the zip file (4.6MB) because of the images, i've put them up on my server for download instead.[URL]
I'm using FileReference to retrieve an exported CSV file from the server. The fileReference.download(url, "myFilename.csv") method call seems to be working and I can download the file.
The only problem with this is that I can't seem to be able to set the file filter. In my save dialog, the file type filter is always *.*, which is really bad. The user trying to save the file has to manually type in the .csv extension. How do I change the filter of the dialog box to only show *.csv and not
I'm building a Flex app which requires me to download files.I have the following code:

I have a requirement to select a file from fileReference.browse(), but I want to browse a file to specific location say D:Dirfile instead of the OS specific (The dialog box is native to the user's operating system).

View 2 RepliesI am developing an application using Adobe AIR.How can we get absolute path of file or "nativePath" of file (as we call it in Flex/AIR) when we use FileReference to browse a file ? I know there are security concerns related to this but is there any hack or is there a direct solution that I am unaware of?
View 1 RepliesI have a FileReference that is being uploaded. But before upload, I call the compress() method on the ByteArray of the FileReference i.e. fileReference.data.compress().
But I observe that the uploaded file is the raw file and not the compressed file.
Is this a Flex bug or expected behavior? The data field in the FileReference is read-only. Does that come into play?
To load 3 files locally into the Flash Player, one might using something like this manage the sequence after the user has chosen the files...
private function uploadList(evt:Event):void{
var arr:Array = fileReferenceList.fileList;
for each(var item:FileReference in arr){
item.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onFileLoadComplete);
item.load();
