Yes, it's possible. You can use the uncompress() method of the ByteArray class to uncompress the compressed part. You don't have to write a decompressor, but you do have to write a bit-by-bit reader. - Gordon ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Samuel R.

Much easier than parsing the SWF (is it even possible to parse SWF in AS3 given that SWF is compressed format and not byte aligned?) Sam ------------------------------------------- We're Hiring!

Programmatically, at runtime? No, because there are no runtime objects representing packages, nor a programmatically accessible list of all classes in a SWF. Instead, you would have to load your own SWF as a ByteArray, parse its ABC blocks to find the fully-qualified names of all the classes inside (such as mx.core.UIComponent, mx.controls.Button, etc.) and from those names determine which classes were in which packages. - Gordon
