Yeah that's exactly it, trying to get Flex front end to communicate with
Xray connector in flash 8 swf.

Right now, I set up a simple LC in a basic Flex front end that has a method
for listening for trace statements and while it connects just fine, nothing
is received on the method defined.  I assume since LC uses AMF that it'd
have to be set to AMF0 for the communication to work.

Maybe I'm missing something simple, but I've tripple checked things like
*when* the connection is made in relation to when the object is instantiated
(hence the custom method being available before connecting).  Any tricks you
used when you did it?

THanks again Muz,

JG

DOH.. LocalConnection...
Thought you were talking about NetConnection..

Does LocalConnection need objectEncoding?
Are you trying to have a Flex swf communicate with a Flash swf?
Did that in beta 2 which worked fine without setting objectEncoding.


Classes are probably in one of the .swc files:

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2.0 Beta 3\Flex SDK
2.0\frameworks\libs
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2.0 Beta 3\Flex SDK
2.0\frameworks\locale\en_US

Some classes here (.as files). No flash.net package though..
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2.0 Beta 3\Flex SDK
2.0\frameworks\source\mx

Muzak

Hey Muz, thanks for taking the time ;)

I saw this page, as I usually visit live docs when  the local version
doesn't have the answer.  This line in the link you sent is different from
the one I sent earlier:

"The ObjectEncoding class allows classes that serialize objects (such as
NetStream, NetConnection, SharedObject, and ByteArray) to interoperate
with
prior versions of ActionScript." - Note how LocalConnection's not
mentioned
there.  And in the LocalConnection class, defaultObjectEncoding /
objectEncoding is not included in the list of properties:


http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex20beta3/langref//flash/net/LocalConnection.html#methodSummary

I've tried setting it with:

lc.defaultObjectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
lc["defaultObjectEncoding"] = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
lc.objectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
lc["objectEncoding"] = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;

also, I can't seem to locate the classes on my harddrive, does anyone know
where they're at?

Thanks again Muz
