Re: [Flashcoders] Output to Text File
Eric, that's interesting feedback. For my part, I only used a fraction of
the functionality Zinc offers and had no issues at all.
I understand the version of Zinc I'm using (v2.5) is a recent release - out
of curiosity, is this the version you have found buggy?
Steven, I somehow missed mProjector when I was reviewing the options! It
looks pretty good.
It's interesting that all of these are exactly $299!

Adrian/Eric,
Thanks for the info.
I need to build quite a large RIA soon (it will be a flex app, but for
the
purposes of this discussion the gui will be a series of swf's) that
requires
extensive local machine/local network access (and this needs to be
released
prior to Apollo). I understand there is a polarised opinion of desktop
to
swf products such as zinc, but my current thinking is if I need to use a
wrapper of this nature, I'd prefer to write my own in C# (my app is
heavily
reliant on database servers, and im not sure current data access in zinc
or
swf studio is sufficient or good enough performance-wise).
Maybe these products have moved on since I last investigated though.
Eric, just out of interest, what particularly puts you off zinc?
Cheers,
Nick

I know you asked Kelly but, in case it's interesting to you, I have
completed the project I was working on using Zinc. It is a kiosk
application in which I needed to capture user data from a form in
Flash and append it to a text file for collection later. Zinc made
this an absolute breeze! The new {mdm}ScriptT 2.0 is a doddle to use
and really well integrated and with just a few short lines of code I
was able to build the functionality I needed.

I am trying to find a way to get my Flash file read from and write
to ASCII text files. I would like to run the swf or exe file on my
local
machine,
with an input test file and an output text file in the same
directory. The swf file would read from the input file and write to
the
output file. Is
this possible? Can I use javascript to achieve this?

RE: [Flashcoders] Output to Text File
Nick, I try to avoid third party software when possible. I am going to write a C++ file that will handle the model side of the program and read/write to the disk. Then I can use Flash for the view and controller portions. I know this can be done quite easily (using ActiveX and FSCommand, I think). I am reasonably proficient with MS Visual C++, but I have never run a swf from within a C++ application. So, yes I do have a plan. It may take me some time to figure out the intricacies of it, however.

Re: [Flashcoders] Output to Text File
I believe you would need to use something such as php for this. kelly snyder wrote: I am trying to find a way to get my Flash file read from and write to ASCII text files.

The swf file would read from the input file and write to the output file. Is this possible? Can I use javascript to achieve this? _ Don’t just search. Find.

Re: [Flashcoders] Output to Text File
You can do it with something like Zinc ( http://www.multidmedia.com/ ) or Jugglor (http://www.flashjester.com/). There is also the open source Screenweaver (http://screenweaver.org/) which can do this I think. There are also other similar solutions - try http://www.swftools.com/tools-category.php?cat=290 for a list (some of them don't seem to exist anymore though). I'd be very interested to know what you go with and what your experiences are. HTH Adrian P.
