Python :: Uncompress Zlib String In Using ByteArrays
Dec 2, 2009
I have a web application developed in Adobe Flex 3 and Python 2.5 (deployed on Google App Engine). A RESTful web service has been created in Python and its results are currently in an XML format which is being read by Flex using the HttpService object.Now the main objective is to compress the XML so that there is as less a time between the HttpService send() method and result events. I looked up Python docs and managed to use zlib.compress() to compress the XML result.Then I set the HttpService result type from "xml" to "text" and tried using ByteArrays to uncompress the string back to XML. Here's where I failed. I am doing something like this:[code]Its throwing an exception at byteArray.uncompress() and says unable to uncompress the byteArray. Also when I trace the length of the byteArray it gets 0.[code]

I can't seem to get a stream that Flex 3 want's to decompress.
I've tried:
System.IO.Compression.GZipStream
System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream
ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Zip.Compression.Streams.DeflaterOutputStream
zlib.ZOutputStream
None of these seem to make ByteArray.uncompress happy, i.e. I get
Error #2058: There was an error decompressing the data.
Also the whole Deflate vs zlib has me going around in circles. It seems that according to the wikipedia article, zlib is an implementation of DEFLATE. But according to Actionscript they are two different things?
Microsoft also seems to indicate the Gzip at least uses the Deflate algorithm, as in their docs they refer that GZipOutputStream uses the same compression algorithm as DeflateStream. So I'm assuming that it's just a header difference, which would indicate that's "no good" as far as 'ByteArray.uncompress' as the "DEFLATE" algorithm is only supported in AIR applications.
Sample "server" code, using SharpZipLib in this case (not working):
public virtual bool ProcessRequest(string path, HttpListenerContext context)
{
var buffer = File.ReadAllBytes(path);
// Specifying to strip header/footer from data as that seems to be what the

I experience strange behavior of sockets in Python (3.2). Client connects to my application using Flash. Most of the time there is nothing unusual but sometimes python crashes in a way that should not have taken place - enter into infinite loops. Below I attach to the loop code and error message in the log. Python hang on bytesRecived = sock.recv(64) and receive b'' witch is visible in log.
code:
try:
buff = ''

I have created a flex application in the Python Gae sdk and I got the error 2048, so I put a crossdomain.xml under the static folder.
The crossdomain.xml is following:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

However, I still got the error 2048. Therefore, I would like to know is anything I need to configure or miss in my case and how to fix the error.

If swf file is embedded in html it is easy to call ActionScript methods via ExternalInterface using JavaScript. Now I want to use the swf file outside of a browser and still be able to access its methods, but now I want to use Python to call ActionScript. Is it possible? There is so little information about it in the Internet. Probably I can use AMF (pyAmf) for this, can I?

I'm trying to find out if there is a way I could embed a Python back-end into an AIR application? I'm looking to employ an approach similar to the one outlined here to implement the business logic for my application, but additionally, I would like to provide the user with a single binary which they can load. I don't want the user to have to fire up a seperate server process to make this work.

Does the uncompress method of ByteArray only supports level 3 compressed streams? Because I have a valid zlib compressed file but compressed in level 2, and Flash always throws me the 2058 error message.
I've also tried using the DefaultCompressionAlgorithm class for AIR with its two compression methods, but with no success.
Doing some quick tests with python using the same file gets uncompressed with no problems.

I'm doing a flashlight in pixel bender and works great. I pass, as parameters, the center of the flashlight.Now, I want to have more than one flashlights (n value).I don't think so I can use Arrays in Pixel Bender, so I thought about ByteArrays but I don't know how to use it in Pixel Bender.

I have an Air application with remote service in codeigniter. I'm trying to save a bytearray that I received from the Air app but when I save the data I get empty files with the correct filename.So there must be something wrong with my bytearray or the way I save the data. Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong? I've debugged the Arraycollection I sent and the bytearray is definitely in there.This is where I make my arraycollection to send to my codeigniter amf

I would like to be able to move images into and out of Flex by converting back and forth between ByteArrays. I've been having some trouble with this, so I designed a simple test program, and even that I can't get to work. Here's the code I'm trying right now:

So far the process follows top to bottom: Click button 3, image displays, everything is going well. Click button 4, and I get "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2124: Loaded file is an unknown type." after the line "loader.loadBytes(myByeArray);" in the function button4_clickHandler. As far as I can tell I'm using everything as intended.

does anyone know if there is any possibility to do simple elementwise math on bytearrays without having to program it explicitely, e.g. a built-in function for multiplying all elements of a bytearray (of type float) by a constant or adding the elements of two bytearrays (with specified datatype)?

I work on a Flex application that creates compressed files and uploads them on a server. The files are created with ByteArray.compress method, which is zlib compression. I can decompress them using Python API on the server but I prefer to keep the files compressed there. I want to be able to download and decompress the files later, however WinZip and WinRar fail to decompress them. When I google for zlib utility, I only find zlib dll library. I need a simple application for Windows (and/or Linux)
