Re: [Flashcoders] to mac or not to mac
I develop with FlexBuilder and Flash CS3 on the Mac and love it. I tried subclipse though and wasn't a fan. I prefer managing my source control separately with SmartSVN which gives more control and options.

This one tiny software is the main reason i stick to Windows (XP) for now. I have three machines here (XP, OSX and Ubuntu), and the XP machine is my main dev machine, because i don't wanna miss TortoiseSVN.

Re: [Flashcoders] Remove elements from Array
The Array.splice method, in AS1 at least, is very slow. For that
reason, In situations like this where you would make repeated calls
to it to remove one item I prefer to:
- create a new Array
- iterate the original array with a for loop
- push the items I want to keep into the new array
- dispose the old one when done.

Hi everyone,
I'm having a braindead moment today, which I was hoping someone could
help me with.
I have the following array...
//Create array with 5 elements
var myArray1:Array = new Array();
myArray1.push( new Array(A:, -1) );
myArray1.push( new Array(B:, -1) );
myArray1.push( new Array(C:, 0) );
myArray1.push( new Array(D:, 0) );
myArray1.push( new Array(E:, -1) );
myArray1.push( new Array(F:, 1) );
myArray1.push( new Array(G:, 0) );
myArray1.push( new Array(H:, -1) );
//name, score
...and I'm trying to remove all the elements in myArray1 with a
score of
less than 0 without sorting/reordering the array at all.
I was trying to use a 'for loop', but obviously as the elements are
removed, the length of the array changes causes the wrong
elements to
be deleted.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] Subversion Client on Mac?
My company does all development using Mac OS X and has used SmartSVN for about a year since migrating from CVS, and we have been very satisfied. The application isn't quite as responsive as I'd always like for large hierarchies, but it is fully featured, stable, and relatively easy to use. I recommend it.

Re: [Flashcoders] swf and domains, what domain made the call?
A third option, which may not work for MySpace, but is worth
mentioning for situations like this, is to embed a loader.swf on the
3rd party server. In the loader.swf, you test _url and if it meets
your requirements you can then load your primary SWF file from your
server.

Perhaps when you instruct with what EMBED code to use on myspace,
do it like
this...
EMBED src=mydomain.com/myfile.swf?id=123
That ID could be a unique ID to a certain account. In flash you can do
whatever database calls you need and check if that userID has the
access you
need. If the swf is called without the ID, then don't allow it.
OR...
I'm not sure if this will work, but you could use...
EMBED src=mydomain.com/myfile.php - your php could check who the
referrer
is, and do whatever checking you need, then load your SWF and spit
out a
SWF-file type.

Not quite what I am looking for. Here is my situation.
I have a swf on my server. This swf will be allowed to be posted on
other sites such as myspace (if the user that created the account
has a
certain account type). Since it can be posted on myspace the
actual swf
will be in an embed tag on myspace with an src pointing to my server.
What I need to do is once this swf gets called is see what the
referring
domain is and see if the creator of that content has an account that
allows embedding on external sites.
if(domain == myserver || domain == www.myserver){
// serve up content this is on our server no account check needed
}
else{
// WAIT!!! check if this content creator can embed outside of our
domain
}
I hope I got my point across and I hope what i am trying to
accomplish
is actually doable. I tried localConnections domain function but that
gave me the domain of the swf which was on my server not the
domain of
the html file that called/embedded the swf.

Re: [Flashcoders] Help Loading and Displaying XML
Aaron, I don't know your exact architecture, but relative paths should work here. The path is relative to the URL where your embedded SWF is loaded from. Thus, if you have a folder on your server with the SWF file and the xml in it, you should be able to simply load menu.xml. The crossdomain.xml is good to understand, but fundamentally your user is either coming in from the www.whitehorsemedia.com or the whitehorsemedia.com domain and not switching during an execution of your SWF.

Re: [Flashcoders] Flash 8 Debugger Crashes
Dan and John, Thanks for your help. I took a look at the Xray video tutorials. It seems like a great data inspection / manipulation tool, and I will definitely use it on future projects. Nice work John. It doesn't have all of the functionality that I require from an interactive debugger, though, so I can't really use it as a substitute for the Flash debugger. There is no way to set a breakpoint or pause code execution, so there is really no way to use it, for example, to debug issues during object model initialization; examine the transaction data of a transient data set returned from a web service; or trace the flow of control through a series of object instances. Most of the Flash I work with tends to have these characteristics. I have been working on a different set of classes within my same project today, and was able to successfully use the Flash 8 debugger without a crash. That indicates to me that there is a specific bug in the Flash 8 debugger that is triggered by specific code within my project, because when I'm working in this other area of my code I see reproducible crashes. Now to figure out precisely what triggers this bug. I'll report here if I determine the cause. Thanks again.

You tried http://osflash.org/xray . Not much experience with it, but might be a different way of getting in there.

[Flashcoders] Flash 8 Debugger Crashes
I have been using Flash 8 to compile a moderately complex Flash application with about 40 classes. The code is all AS1. It compiles and runs without error, but I run into issues when I try to use the interactive debugger. Setting a breakpoint and stepping through code works for at least a few lines, but stepping into a method call or closing the debugger window generally causes Flash 8 to crash. I don't have this issue when doing the same steps with Flash MX 2004 -- in fact I had been using MX 2004 on this project for almost 2 years with no problems of this magnitude and just recently upgraded. These are both Mac versions of the Flash IDE. Has anyone experienced similar issues with debugger stability under Flash 8? I contacted Adobe tech support about my issue and they told me to send in an example of the code that makes it crash. Now I had only to isolate the crashing behavior to a particular construct within a 40 class project without any knowledge of the architecture of the Flash debugger -- easy right? When I didn't submit anything to them within a week they closed my ticket. :-P Just hoping to collect some advice regarding this issue to see if I will need to keep swapping between two installs of the Flash IDE. Also, I just joined Flashcoders and this is my first post to this list -- I look forward to helping out in the future. Thanks.
