Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] stop caching
If you are loading the swf directly from the file system (that is, localy)
appending parameters to the querystring won't work because they'll be
considered part of the file name. So those parameters will not be
interpreted as such. In a http environment (i.e. a server, local or remote),
on the other hand, the querystring will not be considered part of the file
name.
So yes, it's a local / server issue.

I am trying to prevent caching via:
function startLoad(dfile:String)
{
var ran:int = Math.round(Math.random()*10);
var dfileb:String = new String();
dfileb = dfile+?ran=+ran;
var mRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest(dfileb);
}
startLoad(moive.swf);
but I get an error 2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:text=Error #2035: URL Not
Found
What am I doing wrong?

[Flashcoders] swf not compiling
Hi list... My CS5 fla is not not compiling at all. It publishes a blank stage with no errors. I looked around online for some tips and found Steve Sacks' suggestion about some corrupt library item. I've replaced all existing components with new components and trial and error deleted all the other library graphics but it's still not publishing. Anyone have any suggestions? No compile errors are thrown, so I have no idea where to start.

[Flashcoders] RE: swf not compiling
Have you tried putting everything in a fresh new .fla? Sometimes .flas get corrupt. And are you using a document class? Hi Jason, thanks for responding. Yes, I'm using a document class. I haven't rebuilt the swf. I will try that. What's strange is that as of 10 minutes ago, it's compiling. But that has been no guarantee, as it has been periodically not compiling for about two days now. I thought it might have been a corrupted component or graphic, but that doesn't seem to be the case as meticulously deleting individual library members didn't make a difference in trying to publish. If I rebuild the fla, I want to make it as lightweight as possible. I've written 36 classes for this project, totaling 430kb, with a few more still to go. Additionally, I'm importing some third party classes. I'm wondering if I'm running into some undocumented as3 code limit. One thing I was wondering about but can't find documentation is in the Advanced ActionScript 3.0 Settings panel in publish settings. I have no idea about the source path/library path/config constants tabs, but maybe it's sucking in too much to handle? When it decides it wants to compile, it takes a very long time to do so. - MM ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

[Flashcoders] Where to start: Video player with pre-roll and tracking?
Hello, The company I worked for used to use Brightcove for their video hosting... Long story short, we ditched BC because they were just too darned expensive. My question(s): How would I go about implementing a video player that has pre-roll videos? We would probably use our ad serving software, OAS, for the tracking. Currently, we host all of our videos on Amazon S3, and use a basic flash video player to download and progressively play our videos. In order to pre-roll ads, is that best done via RTMP (vs. progressively downoading)? Would RED5 [1] be a good starting point? Can anyone here suggest any (other) free/open source solutions? What about free hosted solutions (i.e. does youtube or vimeo allow folks to monetize thier ads)? I don't mind getting my hands dirty, I just need a kick in the right direction. :) Many thanks in advance! Have a great day!

Re: [Flashcoders] RE: swf not compiling
I did once get some really bizarre behaviour with a project that had a MovieClip in the library linked to a class but with a misspelt class name. Things just weren't happening and the IDE had conveniently constructed a class for me that did nothing. Meanwhile I was trying to work with classes that weren't being called. Maybe totally unrelated.

I've rebuilt a new fla from scratch, and brought in all the assets from the other library. Still nothing. This is going to be the death of me. - MM I've never used Flashbuilder/Flex before. My project is mostly purely code, just a few visual assets, but it would probably take me some time to learn my way around the software. :-( It's not that hard to set up really. You just create a pure AS3 project and point Flashbuilder to your main document as the class to build from (right click on the class, select Set as Default Application). You can then bring in your library assets using [Embed] tags or using the Loader class. There is documentation on how to use the Embed tags - it's easy. Do you own a copy?

Re: [Flashcoders] RE: swf not compiling
I know this doesn't add any value to the problem discussed here, but if you don't mind this little rant, I'd like to point out that the Flash IDE has gotten worse with every major release (to me at least). And I haven't tried CS5 yet. Seriously, the last usable one was probably Flash 8. Thank godness, I use the IDE very sparingly and somehow got used to the asinine way CS3 handles panels; CS4 impressed me as even worse in this and other UI aspects, and much slower (it kind of makes Eclipse look slick, which is quite an accomplishment) so I try to avoid it as much as I can. I know my opinion is a bit biased since I don't take advantage of the new features they've added for designers (I only do some minor tweaks to fla's, just enough to make it possible to control assets from code). Nevertheless, it's horrendously clunky and slow (just opening the code panel to put a stop() or something takes seconds the first time). However, CS4 uses the Flex SDK Java compiler and I'm sure CS5 does too, so I guess it's probably not a compiler issue, just that the IDE is buggy and unstable. Given its evolution and the quality of the last few major versions, I'm not surprised, sadly. Cheers Juan Pablo Califano 2010/12/10 Merrill, Jason jason.merr...@bankofamerica.com I've written 36 classes for this project, totaling 430kb, with a few more still to go. Additionally, I'm importing some third party classes. I'm wondering if I'm running into some undocumented as3 code limit. Oh, thinking about this more, I should have mentioned. Flash CS5 is HORRIBLE with a lot of code. They've taken a step back there. I don't know why I forgot this when you asked, but I recently had to switch one project over to a pure AS3 project in Flashbuilder. The old project (which had a similar amount of code and third party libraries) would crash often and take for-ev-ah to compile. When I switched to Flashbuilder, it compiled in seconds and had no issues. In short, the Flash Pro compiler sucks. If you've kept all your code in classes and can switch over to a pure AS3 project in Flashbuilder, I would. Might mean re-doing how you handle your library assets, but could be worth it.

Sometimes .flas get corrupt. And are you using a document class? Hi Jason, thanks for responding. Yes, I'm using a document class. I haven't rebuilt the swf. I will try that. What's strange is that as of 10 minutes ago, it's compiling. But that has been no guarantee, as it has been periodically not compiling for about two days now. I thought it might have been a corrupted component or graphic, but that doesn't seem to be the case as meticulously deleting individual library members didn't make a difference in trying to publish. If I rebuild the fla, I want to make it as lightweight as possible. I've written 36 classes for this project, totaling 430kb, with a few more still to go. Additionally, I'm importing some third party classes. I'm wondering if I'm running into some undocumented as3 code limit. One thing I was wondering about but can't find documentation is in the Advanced ActionScript 3.0 Settings panel in publish settings. I have no idea about the source path/library path/config constants tabs, but maybe it's sucking in too much to handle? When it decides it wants to compile, it takes a very long time to do so. - MM ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders -- This message w/attachments (message) is intended solely for the use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or proprietary.
