hmm yeah, not on my machine, and I have the flash 9 debug player.  I
also saw the Adobe article to fix it if the log file isn't being
created, but I'm not going to mess with all that on my system to test
Helmut's example.  Let us know what you find out.

Is there a reason you need to use the log file instead of the IDE
debugger messages?

You can also just create the folder and an empty file flashlog.txt and that
should fix the issue.

No problem, thanks for trying though.

Most of the stuff I work on ends up on the web or uses some type of server
side communication where I can only test on a server. In those cases I can
still catch some trace statements from the browser by looking at the
flashlog file and see where the application needs some adjustment or if
everything has been successful.

Nope.  I did that, created a flashlog.txt in the folder described by
Glex, created new Flash file with your sample code, put a png file next
to it called layout.png and when I run the .fla, my Flash IDE crashes
completely.  I think the better course of action is to follow the
directions on Adobe's site to fix the log file issue.

ouch I didn't know you would get that reaction from flash. Sorry for
giving you misleading information for your case. At work that is what we all
do when the flashlog is created and never had that issue.
Thanks for the heads up!

[Flashcoders] Understanding Error 2036

2008-05-28 Thread Helmut Granda
Hi All,

I am trying to understand Error 2036

[IOErrorEvent type=ioError bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2
text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed. URL: file:url]

When I test in Flash IDE I am able to see the error noted above in the Flash
Log but it does not show in the Tracer panel and I was wondering if anyone
knows why. I know the files are loading because the application depend on
the files. So I am able to interact with the application and everything
works as expected. Yet when I run the applicatin then close the preview
window. I get the error listed for every file I loaded into the app.
Does anyone has any insight of why this is happening?
Needless to say I am able to catch the error and I just just do a blank
trace -trace()- which works but I am still wondering why this error gets
triggered even after the file has been loaded.

TIA

That's odd if the file is being loaded afterall.  You're sure the same
file is being loaded that you think is being loaded and not a cache or
another copy somewhere else?  That error is the same error I get when
the file cannot be found that was requested to be loaded.  Have you
tried removing the file that you think is being loaded to be sure it
really is the same file being loaded?

Yeah, I know it is weird that is why I was wondering if anyone else is
getting the same error. Notice that this error wont get traced in the Flash
IDE but it is in flashlog.txt.
I removed one of the images that is being loaded and it breaks the
application (as expected) so it must be something else but not sure what it
is.

Maybe a bug? I guess I can log it in to Adobe to confirm if it is a bug or
not.

I would say if it's  not an error that the Flash IDE is messaging you
about, or the Flash 9 debug player, then I wouldn't worry about it.

Re: [Flashcoders] Understanding Error 2036

2008-05-28 Thread Helmut Granda
I think I would have never noticed it (and a lot of people do not see it) if
I didn't use the flashlog.txt as my debug system. Basically instead of
using the Flash IDE output window I use a program that shows me the contents
of flashlog.txt and that is when I see the issue.
I wouldn't mind at all (and I don't) when I am only loading a few files but
at times I am loading several items and I get a long row of errors that
cover all the real items that I care about.

Besides, in the back of my mind I know they are there! :)

Good point... but to make my point I have created a very simple sample.
1. Copy and paste the code below to a blank FLA and run it (NOTICE: You have
to provide a file to load and it can be a simple png)2. You should see a
trace statement FILE LOADED
3. Close the window
4. Nothing appears on the trace window
5. Open flashlog.txt on your system
6. You should see the very last line of text something similar to the
following:

THERE WAS AN ERROR
[IOErrorEvent type=ioError bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2
text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed. URL:
file:./layout.png]


//--START COPY AND PASTE CODE

var loader : Loader;
var request : URLRequest;

function load ( file : String) : void {
request = new URLRequest( file );
loader.load(request);
}

function init() : void {
loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener ( Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener ( IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onError);
}

function onComplete ( e:Event ) : void {
var target = e.target;
var icon = loader;
trace(FILE LOADED);
}

function onError ( e : IOErrorEvent ) : void {
trace(THERE WAS AN ERROR);
trace(e)

You have to have flash player debug version and here are some tips in case
you have the flash player debug and you can't find it:
