Re: [Flashcoders] loadMovie from subdirectory - change base path
Hi,
check this out:
http://objectpainters.com/blog/2007/01/03/where-am-i-relative-paths/
The getPath things works in most cases. If you want a more complex version
that takes more things into account, you can use this:
You will need to replace the RuntimeExceptions with your own error mechanism
(eg traces, regular errors).
/**
* Resolves pAssetPath against pBasePath.
*
* - if pAssetPath is not a relative path, pAssetPath is returned (eg the
full url)
* - if pBasePath is an empty path, pAssetPath is returned
* - if pBasePath is a relative path, an error is thrown
* - in all other situation a path is returned which may still be or not
valid.
*
* @param pAssetPath, a full or relative url
* @param pBasePath, a full or empty url, this url MAY contain a file as
well, it is stripped automatically
*
*/
public static function resolve (pAssetPath:String, pBasePath:String):String
{
//no base path
if (pBasePath == null || pBasePath.length == 0) return pAssetPath;
if (pAssetPath == null) {
throw new RuntimeException (
Assetpath cannot be null.,
Path, arguments.callee, null, null);
}
//file asset path
if (pAssetPath.indexOf (http) == 0 || pAssetPath.indexOf (ftp) == 0 ||
pAssetPath.indexOf (rmtp) == 0 || pAssetPath.indexOf (file) == 0)
return pAssetPath;
//asset is relative, test basepath for correctness
if (pBasePath.indexOf (http) != 0 pBasePath.indexOf (ftp) != 0
pBasePath.indexOf (rmtp) != 0 pBasePath.indexOf (file) != 0) {
throw new RuntimeException (
Basepath is not null and not a full url, but needs to be either empty
or a full url.,
Path, arguments.callee, null, null);
}
//so now we know that pAssetPath is a relative url and pBasePath is a full
url.
//first normalize both urls so that we are dealing with only one type of
separator
var lAssetPath:String = pAssetPath.split(\\).join(/file://%22).join(%22/
);
var lBasePath:String = pBasePath.split(\\).join(/file://%22).join(%22/
);
//strip everything after ? to strip parameters from basepath
if (lBasePath.indexOf(?) -1) {
lBasePath = lBasePath.substr (lBasePath.lastIndexOf(?));
}
//check if basepath ends with /, if not check if everything after /
contains a .
//if it ends with / it is a directory, if it doesnt end with / and

//we are dealing with a file, otherwise a directory

} else {
//assume the last part was a dir and the trailing slash was forgotten,
so add it
lBasePath += /;
}
}
//at this point we have a relative url and full directory path with a
trailing /
//now create two stacks
var lAssetStack:Array = lAssetPath.split (/);
var lBaseStack:Array = lBasePath.split (/);
//remove trailing / from baseStack to provide a correct starting point,
//our invariant is that each directory 'starts' with a slash and not ends
lBaseStack.pop();
//remove any superflous items (pointers to current directory
//. points to current dir and isnt relative
// points to double slashes or a starting slash, we remove that too
while (lAssetStack[0] == . || lAssetStack[0] == ) {
lAssetStack.shift();

also copy this directory in the screens directory

[Flashcoders] Bundle swf's on server for transport to client
Hi list, I'm working on the Flash app of Floorplannerhttp://www.floorplanner.com/tryit/ and we are having some problems with the loading of all the swf's. The Flash app (AS2) consists of 1 main app that loads several forms (the windows you see, like the library). The library holds a lot of furniture elements, which are separate swf's that are loaded one by one. When someone creates a floor plan and adds furniture to it, it's not strange that the design holds more than 50 furniture elementshttp://www.floorplanner.com/vyy1fm/Verdieping/Lekkeeerrr. Though all elements are small swf files, it takes a lot of time to handle all resource requests on our server. So my question is: is there a technique that makes it possible to (dynamically) bundle a set of swf's on the server and transport it to the client? Right now I'm testing with swfmill and it looks promising, but it seems a little buggy... I hope someone can help me out and point me in the right direction.

[Flashcoders] Animating sprite.graphics.lineTo
Any straight line can be described as this simple equation: y = ax + b If you have the starting point (x1, y1) and the end point (x2, y2), it's easy to work out two constants a and b. The beauty of TweenLite is you can tween any property of any object (thanks Jack!). In this case you will create an Object (let's call it v) with a property x, which you tween from x1 to x2. Then onUpdate, you just do lineTo(v.x, a * v.x + b). Simple. Sorry if this is already answered (I'm on digest). Kenneth Kawamoto http://www.materiaprima.co.uk/ Tried on another Flash list without any luck, so I'll try here. I'm trying to see if there is a way to combine TweenLite and the draw functions (i.e. sprite.graphics.lineto) to slowly draw a line from point A to point B. Maybe there isn't, but I thought I would ask. Is it possible or would it have to be accomplished instead by drawing slowly from point A to a point approaching B, then clearing, drawing further, then clearning, etc. until the endpoint is reached? I'd like to avoid that because it's 1) kludgy, 2) processor intensive, 3) time consuming to code, 4) does not use easing (easily anyway), and 5) would not look smooth. Any thoughts? Oh, and any method suggested has to be done dynamically with the draw API, not a timeline solution, since this is in regards to rendering a dynamic graphic. Thanks.

I use the tween class on the _width property of the mask mc, and tween it from a width of 0% to 100%. It worked out great.

[Flashcoders] How to call class method from a movieclip?
Hello!
I am having a big problem, hope someone can help me.
I have made a class which i import in my flash file. The first and only
frame of the file looks like this:
import myClassFolder.*;
var myClassInstance:myClass = new myClass(this.stage);
stop();
Inside the class i am attaching a movieClip from a library and declaring a
methof:
public class myClass extends Sprite{
var contentMCs:MovieClip = new contentMC();
...
}
public function myMethod(){
}
The contentMC contains 8 frames, each of the frame has a movieClip.
In the frame 2 of the contentMC MovieClip i want to call myMethod of the
myClass.
Anyone who know how to do this?

Re: [Flashcoders] How to call class method from a movieclip?
If you want your contentMC class to be able to call methods on your
myClass then you should probably pass the myClass instance to the
contentMC. Basically, add a parameter to contentMC's constructor of
type myClass, and pass a reference to 'this' when you create it.
Something like this:
public class myClass extends Sprite{
public function myClass() {
var contentMCs:MovieClip; = new contentMC(this);
}
public function myMethod(){
}
}
On an unrelated note: standard practice has class names start with a
capital letter, not lowercase like you have. It helps to
differentiate between variable names and class names.

Re: [Flashcoders] How to call class method from a movieclip?
Looks to me your Class MyClass should be the Document class. If you
set it as Document class, you can attach your MovieClip like this,
because the root timeline is MyClass itself:
var contentMCs:MovieClip = new ContentMC();
addChild(contentMCs);
Then from your MovieClip, you can call MyClass function myMethod like
this:
MyClass(parent).myMethod();

Yes, that's the problem. In Flash, xml loading is always asynchronous so the
trace line is executed immediately after the previous one, in which you
created an instance of retornaXML; so the XML object isn't at that point
loaded and parsed. (It would perhaps be nice to have the option of loading
synchronously, but I digress...).
So, you'll have to listen to the COMPLETE event dispatched by the URLLoader
and then access the xml object.
You can wrap your xml and the loading logic in a custom class as you seem to
be doing so far, but if you're just going to load the xml and the read it /
parse it somewhere else (outside that class), in my humble opinion, the
wrapper is pointless.
You'll end up re-dispatching the Loader events (all the events you want to
support; the error events, and the complete event, at least, just in case
something went wrong, and perhaps the Progress event as well) so your
external code can handle the different scenarios. By the time you are done
coding that, you'll find that you have a class that does almost nothing of
use by itself; it just copies all the functionality that you already had in
the URLLoader and XML classes out of the box. I did it a couple of times
when I started to use AS 3.0, but I changed my approach as it didn't make
much sense to me to have such a class. Having all that logic encapsulated in
the class that actually does something with the xml, on the other hand,
seems like a good idea to me.

The function I am trying to call is a simple test at the moment, that does nothing but return true. Anyone know why calling the service would generate the url error, but going to the url works? This is the first time I've really ever had any problems with amfphp, and like I said it was working just a couple hours ago. I'm perplexed.

Re: [Flashcoders] Gateway URL to AMFPHP generating error...
Have you turned on debugging in the gateway? - Look in gateway.php, I
had something the other day that bollixed my flash because I had
disabled stuff, here is my working config:
if(PRODUCTION_SERVER)
{
//Disable profiling, remote tracing, and service browser
$gateway-disableDebug();
/*
Setting these stops the gateway working in Flash
*/
//Disables the standalone player by filtering out its User-Agent
string
//$gateway-disableStandalonePlayer();
//Disable service description from Macromedia's service browser
//$gateway-disableServiceDescription();
//Disables remote tracing
//$gateway-disableTrace();
}
Try to get hold of Charles the proxy debugger, it is really good for
watching comms between Flash the server and you can see all your
NetDebug messages.
Have you tried using the AMFPHP service browser to call the commands to
see what happens.
Are you calling a gateway on http://www.domain.com/gateway.php from
http://domain.com/flash.swf

Are you calling a gateway on http://www.domain.com/gateway.php from http://domain.com/flash.swf Thanks much Glen. I use ServiceCapture instead of Charles... is Charles better? The service browser was working. I am doing this from the IDE right now... And for whatever reason it has just started working again. I'm not sure... I rebooted. Still no go but still fine if I went right to the URL of the gateway though... so I started up ServiceCapture and it just started working. And continues to. I got nothing...

While we appreciate your code sample, Jesse, and we're all supportive of
you, Flashcoders isn't a surrogate for your group therapy sessions. ;)

Re: [Flashcoders] onMetaData
I don't think you can rely on metaData being called just once, but it is easy enough to add logic to handle the metadata once only. The nature of the metadata depends on how (and with what tool) the flv was encoded. So the answer to your question of predictability is Yes only if you have strict control over how the video is encoded. Otherwise, the answer is No. - Randy On Jan 29, 2008 1:39 AM, strk [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Can one rely on the assumption that onMetaData will be called only once for a given video loaded by NetStream ? And is the call sequence of it and other statuses predictable at all ?
