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 have a simple urlLoader function in which I send a post variable to the server and get a response.
Everything works out fine and I use the php response on the flash file however after I recieve and use the data, firefox status bar writes[code]...
I have a little problem with a simple URLLoader,it simply just loads the data from an url, and processes that data, nothing complicated. But, when ever i run it, it leaves the connection open. At the bottom of the browser it says:
Transfering Data From www....
The data is read sucessfully, so it should close the connection? but doesnt seem to want to do it. Is there anyway to close all open connections, or somehow remove such message?
I have a flash element in a page that load a chart based on some complex queries that can take up to a minute to load. I call the query with this code :

chartData.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
chartData.addEventListener("httpStatus", onHttpStatus);

Ran into a weird Flex bug (i guess)... I am uploading using URurlLoader.load(urlRequest)... on cancel button click, urlLoader.close() is called.. but this doesnt abort the upload the file shows up on the server. Is this a Flex bug or am I missing something? Can anybody confirm if they have been able to abort an upload / load with the urlLoader.close() method call?

Basically the solution was simple. Everybody keeps saying to put jar into lib folder, so i done it, but i wasnt realised that i have to put into my servers lib directory, not app lib directory and this miserable mistake cost so much. Anyway i hope this will help for some newbie like me.In this particular situation im using red5, so i putted it into my red5 dist/lib directory and "surprisingly" its started to work.
I am currently checking if something is true or false at an external link. What I want to do is, integrate a "failsafe" function, so if the external link should be down I'll display something special. I'm not sure how to do this, but what I had in mind was to define x amount of seconds and if nothing has been received by that time, terminate the call to the link and do something else.
What I currently have is:
ActionScript Code:
var loadContainer:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
loadContainer.onData = function(resp:String){
if(resp.indexOf("true")!=-1){
//true
} else {
//false
}}
loadContainer.load("[URL]")
I'm trying to load a bunch of external images, and then print them all in the same PrintJob. For testing i tried 40 images at around 599kb. I load all images using Loaders and check that all images are fully loaded (by Event.INIT) and put the images in separate Sprites.When this is done i start a new PrintJob, loop throug all my images and add them to the PrintJob, and then PrintJob.send(); At least this is what i want to do.

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'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 RepliesI have encountered an interesting problem when I try to load an .xml file using a URLLoader (within my own custom class). I have several configuration .xml files which I use to configure the application when it launches. For example, in the code below, myCustomLoader is a custom class I wrote that takes an .xml file as a parameter. The myCustomLoader class encapsulates all the instantiation of the URLLoader class and error handling etc. The code below operates as expected, the configuration files load into memory, and they're accessible throughout my App.

This should be too simple but I am getting Error #2032: Stream Error.If I trace the HTTP status event it just shows status=0 though I have read that Mozilla doesn't supply status codes to Flash Player so maybe it's not informative.I have sniffed the HTTP traffic with Charles and Flash isn't even trying to load the url - no request is made, so it doesn't even fail.I can browse to the url, which is on an internal url that looks like:URL...I have tried putting a crossdomain.xml in there (with and without a to-ports="8080"), though it shouldn't need one.Neither the onOpen nor onActivate events fire, just one HTTPStatus and then the IOError.I have copied the common URLLoader code from Adobe example, mine looks like this:[code]

View 3 RepliesI'm currently trying to make a fun little SWF that lets the user input the URL of an image online, then play around with that image via filters, painting, etc, and save their finished work to disk. However, I'm running into some issues once I upload the SWF online. My SWF works without any problems at all from the Flash sandbox, but once online there seems to be a problem.To overcome the issue of not being allowed to smooth an image loaded from an external source, I am using a URLLoader with dataFormat set to BINARY to load the image. Then I have a regular Loader loadBytes from the loaded data of the URLLoader. This allows me to apply smoothing and chang ethe bitmapData of the loaded image.
This works for a select amount of images online. The problem here is that for most images, the URLLoader never finishes loading, nor does it produce an error. It doesn't even produce a ProgressEvent. The .load method of the URLLoader executes with error.
I'm creating a website using Adobe Flash Professional CS5. I'm trying to read the content of a text file with URLLoader.load(path) inside a for loop. The path changes every iteration. When I trace the data from the event handler method, it returns only the last path's text file's content. It seems like it's calling the event handler method only after the for has done looping.

var myData:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myData.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);

Wondering if anyone has an incite on this. I have a basic Shell class that I'm using to load in all of my assets including two xml files and one css file. Currently I'm using a single URLLoader to load in the three external files. Through testing (Using FDT Pure in Eclipse 3.3.3, publishing using 'FDT AS3 Application') I'm running into an interesting issue.Basically the first file that I try and load, regardless which xml file or css file, my onComplete doesn't seem to be getting called. But everything runs gravy if I insert this line before beginning my loading:
ActionScript Code:
this._urlLoader.load(new URLRequest(""));
Here's some more of the code:
[code].....
there you are, you set up your AS3 code to load XML via a URLLoader and URLRequest, as normal. You then take your XML file, and upload it to a server. You then run your program, and trace out the XML you receive. So far so great, and you see the results of your XML traced out. Then you change something on your XML, either adding to it or removing a line. You then run your program again from CS5.5, and trace out the XML, and it shows the same results that it did before you made any changes. I deleted the XML file from the remote server, and it is like it stored it in cache, and still able to read it. If I change the url or file name, it gives me an error, which it should.
If I point the url back to my remote XML file, and run the program again, it gives me the XML results I had in the beginning, before I made any changes to it (regardless if the XML file exists). The only fix I have found so far, is closing CS5.5, and reopening, and then it can see the changes. I did that, and it was able to see my XML changes on my remote server, but again, only one time. If I try to change anything, or delete the XML file, it still pretends as if its there, reading the results that it read the first time I run the program. Is this a cache issue? Anybody else experience this? I never remember running into this problem using CS5/CS4/CS3, only CS5.5. Of course, I can test it all locally first, and then upload the XML file to the remote server when I know that no other changes need to be made, but still, this is really weird!
I'm trying to send about 1 MB of binary data to server via URLLoader. But when I call method load of this class, my application hangs for about 1-1.5 seconds, then uploading runs normally.
View 2 RepliesI'm planning to load images via URLLOADER onto the stage.....i want each image to be on a diffrent frame of the main timeline how do i tell each one which frame it belongs to?
View 5 RepliesI understand the Flash and AS3 is single-threaded, at least at the user level. I would like to understand how asynchronous data loading is handled by the Flash player.
For instance, if I run CPU-intensive code that runs beyond the normal frame (lets say it runs on ENTER_FRAME, and consumes 1/4 per call). Does this leave any CPU cycles to load data from a URLLoader?
If http loading is truly synchronous, right down to handling the TCP/IP stack, one would get horrible performance. In Windows programming, I can do http access asynchronously (in which case the Windows libraries are doing either input on a separate thread, or doing hardware-level interrupts to handle the data -- I provide an asynchronous callback that may be on its own thread). Or, I can do synchronous download, in which case there will be hardware buffering, but my application is actively waiting for each buffer of data to be delivered by the hardware/OS combination.
URLLoader is asynchronous, but what does that mean? Does it mean that I can run the CPU and still download data? Or, will my download speed slow to a crawl if my Flash application is under heavy CPU load? Understanding how this works will help me design my product better, which both uses a lot of CPU, and downloads a lot of data (to the bandwidth limit of the network, if possible).
I have a Flash movie that behaves as follows:Movie loads > tries to load an XML file using URLLoader.load() > uses the data in the XML to load some images into the movie.The requirement was for updates to the XML file to be picked up within 10 minutes, so I have added a querystring parameter to the XML URL which is a timestamp to the nearest ten minutes, e.g.1-40**This all works for me as expected in IE and Chrome, and it works locally for me in Firefox. However, on our production server (IIS) in Firefox, the following behaviour occurs (by observing Firebug):First load:SWF loads > XML Requested and loads > images requested and loadSubsequent page loads:SWF Loads > no request for the XML (no request shown in Firebug)Firebug shows the following information about the XML file from the first successful request:

1 - SWF must have ability to loading binary data from any domain.
2 - SWF cant load policy XML file from url, cause upload form allows me only to upload swf files, so I cant include any other data.
I tried:
Security.allowDomain("*");
But it works only for SWF files.I tried to embed policy XML file:
var dataXML:XML =
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- http://www.foo.com/crossdomain.xml -->
<cross-domain-policy>
[code]....
This will make an security error, if file is from different domain than SWF file.Its possible to get binary data from JavaScript using ExternatInterface in AS3 code.Here is cross-browser library for reading files binary: binary reader and later version jDataView.
(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?
