Using flex 3, how do i set a timeout for a NetConnection?
code sample:
nc=new NetConnection();
nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,checkConnect);
rtmpNow="rtmpe://host/test/test1";
nc.connect(rtmpNow,fuid,gameName);
How do I limit my amf sessions to flex over pyamf?
I have set up a pyamf gateway to that serves value objects that originate from a django admin panel, through sqlalchemy to my authenticated flex client. It's working great, however there is a problem. My sessions are persisting and clogging up the server, so after about 20 or so AMF sessions are authenticated, it refuses any more until I restart the server.
I've a problem, I'm using an AdvancedDataGrid. It loads about 3000 records with about 20 columns. I constantly get Flex execution timeout because the grid executes a lot inside LayoutManager. How can I make it asyncronousely or faster at all?
View 2 Repliesmy flex application sends a few concurent requests on startup. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to fetch them all so I've set them requestTimeout param to 5 secs. Additionally, I've defined a method that handles fault events. I'd like to resend a request when timeout occurs.It doesn't work though. Could you take a look at the code?
protected function fatalErrorOccuredInfo(event:FaultEvent):void

Is there a timeout on the connection made by URLLoader.load? If there is, what's its value, where is it documented and can it be changed? Also, what event (if any) gets dispatched if the timeout occurs? Is there a difference between AIR and browser application in those regard?
View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash Builder 4 Beta 2. I have it connecting to a PHP service. The way I set this up was using the wizard, so I didn't actually write the code to connect to it.[code]...
One of the functions that I'm calling fetches users from a MySQL database. There are about 30,000 users right now. The service seems to timeout when fetching more than around 22,000 rows, I get the "Channel Disconnected before an acknowledgement was received" error. If I call the PHP script from a browser, it fetches them all with no problems at all, however. I have tried increasing the timeout in the PHP script (which didn't work), but obviously this isn't the problem since the browser is able to pull them up with no problems.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to use the flash.net.NetConnection object to connect to my Flash remoting enabled web application over HTTPS within Tomcat or any other servlet container?
I am using the SpiceFactory cinnamon project for amf remoting and have searched for examples of using HTTPS but see only the reference to a proxy type in the NetConnection object.
If someone could provide a reference or example that would be awesome. Or if it is not possible using the flash.net.NetConnection object are there any recommendations of how to configure HTTPS for the spicefactory cinnamon library.
The ActionScript 3.0 Reference says the following about flash.net.NetConnection:
The NetConnection class creates a two-way connection between a client and a server. The client can be a Flash Player or AIR application. The server can be a web server, Flash Media Server, an application server running Flash Remoting, or the Adobe Stratus service. Call NetConnection.connect() to establish the connection.
Does this mean I make a regular HTTP connection to any web server using an NetConnection object? I am a little confused about this as further down the section on the connect() method says connect(): Creates a two-way connection to an application on Flash Media Server or to Flash Remoting, or creates a two-way network endpoint for RTMFP peer-to-peer group communication....Pass an "http" URL to connect to an application server running Flash Remoting.. So, the application server has to have Flash Remoting?
Since I have to get data from other red5 application. is it possible using multiple netconnection in one mxml application?
View 1 Replies(Flex 3) I have a TextArea component which needs to hold the user's clipboard content. The TextArea does the job relatively well for most cases but when pasting a large amount of data, I can't seem to get the content in the component at all due to the script execution timeout.
I've done a fair deal on investigation to try and hopefully find how I could make this work. I found that the TextArea is using a IUITextField (which is in my case an instance of TextField at runtime) do handle the job of obtaining the pasting data and then throws an event when it is done.
I have found no way to take a look at the source of TextField as it is a class in the playerglobal.swc library.
Is there a way for me to maybe see the source of that class or is there something I'm missing in my approach to figure out a way to make this work?
I am trying to learn the new services method in flex 4. but i cant get it work. A test oparation near the service in flash builder 4 works. But when i run the code i get NetConnection.Call.Failed: HTTP: Failed.

How to understand binary data transferring between flash client and server? How do rtmp-servers work? How is video transferring between server and client? What's the difference between using Socket and NetConnection? Is rtmp-server just a socket server supporting amf serialization? I'll be very happy, if someone explains me these aspects.
View 1 RepliesI'm writing a real-time app using a Flex/Flash client and my own server running on Linux.
I'd like to be able to send data from the Flex client in real time (in response to user actions). I've tried the following methods:
flash.net.NetConnection.call()
flash.net.sendToURL()
flash.net.Socket.write() followed by flash.net.Socket.flush()
[Code].....
The second nc.call() above won't send data to the server until the ACK for the first call has been recieved. I'd like to be able to send data immediately without waiting for that ACK.
If the round-trip time to the server is long (e.g. 300ms) I can only send data to the server 3 times a second. Ideally I'd like to be able to send data up to 30 times per second, but this is only possible with a RTT of around 30ms at the moment.
It doesn't matter if the server itself gets the data 300ms late - I realise I can't beat the speed of light.
Is there any way to get the Flash Player to send data without waiting for an ACK? In other environments this is done by setting the TCP_NODELAY flag on the socket but it seems I don't have that level of control in Flash/Flex.
Update: I think I may have stumbled on a workaround for this. I think the Flash Player tries to get the host browser to give it a separate TCP connection for each NetConnection object, subject to the connection limit for each browser, e.g. 2 for IE. The connection limit can be got around by using sub-domains (haven't tried this yet) so hopefully it should be possible to get closer to real-time behaviour by using a pool of NetConnections.
I am Using Flex as my client and java as my server. Using Weborb in remote host. At times I recieve this error.

[code].....
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 need to override the call method from NetConnection class, the signature of the method is:
[Code]...
Having this code: nc.call("test", new Responder(onCallSuccess,onCallFailed), "user1");
and
public function onTest(id:String):void {
Alert.show("test called from server");
}
Results in: ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property onTest not found on flash.net.NetConnection and there is no default value`.data is send from server application correctly but flex cannot "eat it"
I get a vague "Socket timeout." error on occasion when I am loading my site. I make various HTTP requests for PHP data and also am using a Loader() class instance. Can anyone shed some light on where this error might be coming from? I wish there was more of an indication of where the error stemmed from...
Here is my code that I am using.There are multiple problems going on, but the most important is that catch{} catches an error on first load. I have a fade in function that only works if the loader is fully loaded and I know that all of my URL links work, so it can't be that.

Try to set the timeout for my URLRequest via
Code:
var tempURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest (path);
tempURLRequest.idleTimeout = 2000;
But it doesn't work. Thus: How can I set/change/get the timeout for URLRequests? I need this since I start many parallel URLRequests and on slow connections I get an IOError URL not found error due to the long time they are on stack (I assume).
main problem lies within the 15 second timeout.trying to create a 10,000 x 10,000 2d array with just 0's are placeholders for data.i tried just going with a 2d loop of 0-9999. tried going with a 4d loop like this 0-999+(0-9*1000)
k and kk = 0-9
n and nn = 0-999
array_ar[n+(k*1000)][nn+(kk*1000)]=0;
both time out. i even tried seperating the 4d variety into 2 function passing it back and forth. is there a way to turn off the timeout? or a way to pause the looping every so often. I was thinking about creating the first function that does a 2d loop of 0-999 then at the end of it returns a value to another function that passes the 0-9*1000 part back to the first one? maybe this would create a pause reseting the timeout. but none of that would be needed if the timeout could be disabled.
I'm doing a kiosk project that has 11 scenes that house about 70 videos for playback. I need to include a timeout function that needs to revert back to screen #1 if there is no mouse activity for around 8 minutes. There is another timeout script in scene #2 that forwards ahead to scene #3 if no activity within 30 seconds. The timeouts do seem to work, they go to and stop where they're supposed to but then they seem to rerun themselves so that several are running at the same time. When I click into other scenes which
start the videos, then they will quit and jump back to screen #1 after 30 seconds or so.
I am looking for some code that will make my program restart if it remains idle for a certain amount of time. I have looked around a good bit and cant find one that works in ActionScript 3.0.

View 3 RepliesSo, I need to remove a div once the flash has finished playing. I am using this so far (the first function is to show the flash div on hover, the 2nd to remove it.):
[Code]...
It works fine the first time around. Though when I activate the flash again by hovering over the .showFlash element again - it doesn't work.
I have a highly intensive benchmark/testing chore and I'm getting the 15-second timeout error despite my best efforts to keep my script running.Basically I'm making about 1.2 million remote procedure calls (RPCs) over a socket and want to check the results of these rpcs.Once the calls have all been sent, my flash movie moves to frame 7 which initializes a bunch of variables that I need for my RPC checking loop.Frame 8 does all the work. The first thing it does is stop the playhead for my main movie. Then it sets up a timer to wait for minute or two until any straggling RPC responses come in. [It's been my experience that these are likely to straggle in for several minutes when I'm really pushing the server hard.
If the timer gets too high, the checkResponse function returns and the playhead moves to frame 9 which checks to see if I've checked all the RPCs. If not, the playhead returns to from 8 which skips the timer this time and starts checking immediately.The output I'm getting ends up like this:
Code:
elapsed time:4985
elapsed time:4985

I want to clear the Timeout set with the first function if this certain button is pressed. This is basically what I have so far, but it isn't working
ActionScript Code:
//set the Timeout
setTimeout(function ():Void {
//load movie
[Code].....
I have a movieClip that is basically a slide show.It is controlled by AS that is on its own timeline. It moves forward on its timeline, then a few frames later, I have it pause for 8 seconds with:
Actionscript Code:
stop();setTimeout (function() {play();}, 8000);
It then resumes playing and,a few more frames later,I have it jump to a different random slide. This all works fine. There are other frames on the MAIN timeline that do not contain this moveiClip. The problem is, if I go to one of those other frames in the main timeline, the above movieClip function is somehow still active, and after the 8 seconds it sends the play command. In this case, it causes the MAIN timeline to start playing.
