Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to add Flex components to the Stage?

[ganaraj p r]

Flex is a complete framework and each and every component follows the rules
of the framework. Without the framework running in the background its
probably impossible to get a component working unless you do a lot of work
to make it work. Perhaps much easier to write a separate AS3 component.

  I'm not sure why you want to add a Flex Component directly to the stage.
 I suppose in theory you could; but that would bypass all the Flex Framework
 code to position and size the component.  You'd, in essence, need to write
 your own layout manager. that performs the same functionality as the Flex
 Layout manager.

  In the context of Flex; it probably isn't a good idea to access the stage
 directly.

Re: [flexcoders] Is this possible with Flex 4?

[Wesley Acheson]

I don't think flex can interact with a third party website *except* to post
data to that website.  It would be a major security risk if you could do all
of this.

AIR may be able to do it but I believe only if the origional website owners
have a crossdomain.xml file.

 1) Allows the user to add any number of websites to a navigation bar
 2) Allows the user to enter information like Name, email, username, and

 3) When the website is clicked on from the side nav bar, a different part
 of the screen will automatically go to the website's registration page and

 4) When a different button is pressed, it logs into their email, reads all

 Is this possible with Flex? And if so, how (can you guide me to some

 I know how to do parts 1 and 2. I'm not sure whether flex has the

 also don't know if Flex can be coded to read through email and click the
 activation link.

 Any help would be truly appreciated

 Thanks so much!

While it may be possible to do this all from FB, for this app, some
middleware would help to make the app more robust.  Check out Adobe's
ColdFusion.  There are a few good CF courses on Lynda.

Yeah, probably two pieces: some MOUSE_DOWN/MOUSE_MOVE/MOUSE_UP code that draws 
a selection rectangle, and code that walks the tree of display objects using 
getChildAt, checks to see if the child is contained in the rectangle, and sees 
if it has any text.

It would be very beneficial if Flex/we could interact with all text in a
particular view as a single, separate logical unit on its own *layer*.

RE: [flexcoders]Is it possible to write a googletalk client in AIR

[Tracy Spratt]

I can't speak to googletalk specifically, but I am working on a project to
build a front end to google analytics.  If googletalk uses the standard
google api stuff I may be able to help a little, though I am learning as I
go.

 

One problem I have found is that while the API is available through straight
http, the docs are heavily oriented around the client libraries, like java,
javascript, php, python and ruby, and straight http examples are not easy to
find.  Anyone who can point to some examples will help me a lot.  Of course,
if someone will write a library in AS3, that would be even better!

 

I can provide AS3 examples of clientLogin and account/Profile list retrieval
but that is as far as I have gotten.  I will be attempting to get my first
GA data in the next few days.

RE: [flexcoders] PopUp databinding - possible?

[Tracy Spratt]

Sure.  In the pop-up, define a bindable variable, say

[Bindable]private var  _app:MyMainAppFileName;

 

In a creation complete handler, assign:

_var = Application.application as MyMainAppFileName;

 

Now you can bind to any bindable property in MyMainAppFileName

 

If that is backwards to what you want, then I advise dispatching events from
the Pop-up.  Remember, binding is just an event mechanism that is created by
the compiler.

The tabs (children) of the mx:TabNavigator are VBoxs, and the tab name is

What problem are you trying to solve by taking this approach?
Code
re-use? Wny not write a class you can instantiate wherever you
want?

Hi everyone, is it possible to include an .as file in
actionscript
within a function but not have the included .as be restricted
within
the function?

private function loaded():void
{
include axis.as http://axis.as/ ;
}

Above, the include file will only apply to the function. How can
I
include a file to the main file or app???

Thanks.

Subject: [flexcoders] is it possible to track visitors / the page an swf

Lets say I run a video site like youtube, how can I capture the url of
the page where my swf object is embedded.

For example someone takes the embed code from
http://youtube.com/videoid123 http://youtube.com/videoid123  and
places it onto the page at
http://myblog.wordpress.com/this_video_rocks
http://myblog.wordpress.com/this_video_rocks 

I know how to use HTTPService to report this information back to my
server and store it in the database, but I don't know how to use Flex
3 / Actionscript 3 to determine the URL of the page that embeds an
swf. In the example above I would want to capture:

http://myblog.wordpress.com/this_video_rocks

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to have the swf and LCDS app on different servers?

[Seth Hodgson]

 I have a flex client from which I would like to make RemoteObject calls 
 through LCDS to a J2EE server.

Not possible. LCDS remoting destinations invoke methods on local Java classes. 
These Java classes that you've exposed as remoting destinations could always 
make remote calls to other resources on other servers (i.e. RMI, JINI, etc.).

 Is it possible for my swf to be on a different server from my LCDS app?
 If so, how should my client be configured, compiled and deployed? What 
 would be deployed to my LCDS server?

Yes. You'd compile your swf against a services-config.xml file containing 
channel-definitions that use fully qualified URLs that refer to your LCDS 
server. Then you'd deploy this swf on some other server (maybe an Apache web 
tier). You'll need a crossdomain.xml file on your LCDS server to allow network 
access from this remotely hosted swf.

 How would my client know to call the server?

Based on the fully qualified URLs in the services-config.xml file you compile 
against. Or when your app starts up you could issue a URLRequest for a response 
containing a list the channels/endpoint URLs/etc. it should use to talk to a 
given LCDS server. Using this list, your app startup code would create and 
configure a ChannelSet/Channels and then assign that to your service components 
(RemoteObject, DataService, etc.).

Best,
Seth

Subject: [flexcoders] Is this possible?


 Hello,

 I am working on a large app using Cairngorm and am trying to develop
 a sort of copmplex component amd am curious if this is a workable
 solution.

 I have created a custom component that extends a titleWindow. The
 data for this component will come from an ArrayCollection in my
 ModelLocator (ie, each of these components, there will be 30, will
 use getItemAt(an id number) to obtain the data using binding.

 What I am not sure is the following. I obtain the number of days in a
 month and cycle throught to create a custom TitleWindow for each day
 using actionscript. Each of these classes are then added to another
 ArrayCollection in the ModelLocator. This ArrayCollection is then
 regenerated with new custom components when a new month is selected.

 Now in my main application, I create a TileList and set the
 dataProvider to the ArrayCollection on the ModelLocator where these
 custom component classes exist.

 Will this work?? In my initial work, I seem to have a TileList that
 does contain these components, however, They are not displaying the
 title or other information that I added into each component.

Your tileList will expect to find label and icon fields in dataProvider, 
otherwise you'll need an itemRenderer to display the tiles (binding to the 
fields in the data).
Sounds like:

1) Your don't have an item renderer and the fields in your dataprovider 
don't include label or icon, or
2) You have an itemRenderer and the fields displyed in your itemRenderer 
aren't bound to the fields of your data object that is passed to it, or
3) Youn have no data!

Paul.


 I hope it is clear what I am trying to do. I want to make a calendar
 type component with each day as a custom component. The day is
 dynamically bound to a subset of an ArrayCollection. I also need to
 have the month (ie each day of the month would need to change as the
 month and year changes).

 Any help if I am on the right direction is appreciate.

 Thanks in advance

 Don

Re: [flexcoders] Is It possible to use ressources in a CustomPreloader

[Haykel BEN JEMIA]

I don't know if there's a way to access it (probably it's not even
initialized at that point), but even if you could, this would make your
preloader too heavy I think. I would put static text in the preloader and
display it depending on the user's preferred language. I don't know how you
detect the language, but I think it should be doable with javascript and
ExternalInterface (perhaps there's a simpler way?).

Hope this helps!

All tiles in a tilelist must be same width/height (or at least, they'll take up 
the same width and height, you could add padding around smaller ones).  You can 
adjust the width and height of all tiles at runtime.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to put a custom component inside itself?

[Daniel Gold]

Sure, as long as you hit your base case and the constructor actually returns
for the last one you create you'll be fine. Just to test and prove the logic
to yourself, create a static class variable and decrement it each time you
create a new one, check it in the constructor if its  0 declare a new
instance and that will be your base case. You should have a hierarchical
component where each instance has one child, that has a childwith a
depth equal to whatever your static var was initialized to.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to listen to *all* events without hacking the SDK?

Add an event listener to the system manager.  Every event tat bubbles  
will hit the system manager.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to listen to *all* events without hacking the SDK?

[Doug McCune]

Is this your custom component or just any component you don't control?
If it's yours you could override dispatchEvent to know whenever the
component dispatches any event. Or you could override addEventListener
to know whenever something adds an event listener.

If it's not your custom component (ie you can't override anything)
then you might be out of luck (other than going through and manually
adding listeners for all possible strings you think the component
might dispatch). But I don't think there is any way to know all the
events that a component might dispatch in its lifetime. ALthough you
could probably do a search on the FLex SDK for dispatchEvent( and
compile a full list of all events that all Flex SDK components will
ever dispatch. I wonder how long that list is...

The other thing to try (although this probably violates your without
hacking clause) is this monkey patched version of FlexSprite I
blogged about: 
http://dougmccune.com/blog/2008/02/21/monkey-patching-flexsprite-to-list-all-event-listeners-on-any-flex-component/

What that does is gives you an array of all the event listeners that
have been registered on a certain component. That's not the same as a
list of all events that the component might ever dispatch (since the
component may very well dispatch events that nobody listens to). The
other thing I would suggest is you could use the same approach to
monkey patch FlexSprite and add some special code into the override
for dispatchEvent and then you could be notified about anytime the
component dispatches any event at all. Again, that probably goes
against the not hacking condition of the question :)

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to listen to *all* events without hacking the SDK?

[Manu Dhanda]

Hii Josh,

I have no idea, if it is exactly related to your query.

I was looking for the same sort of solution to do an AuditLogger stuff. I
want event based logging. No traces and all.
It was like:
1. capture all the events
2. get their Target and currentTarget
3. log with timestamp
and much more.

The only place, I could think of is Application itself. Put your listener at
application, capture all the events there and log. 
But it has a few drawbacks:
even the mouseMove will give you a lodz of entries and then child components
and the underlying parents of it.
So, it's still pending on my list to get a best solution out of it.

Am curious to see expert thoughts here.

Thanks,
Manu.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to get compontnet height is it doesnt have height=###

[Tom Chiverton]

You probably can't get the height immediately after addChild() because it 
hasn't been calculated yet.
You could try one of the invalidateNnn() methods or getting the height 
using callLater() to wait a frame.

Hello all,

I have a flowContainer that is dynamically added to a vbox on load.
Inside that flowContainer I dynamically fill it with labels (one label
per phrase) via an addChild(). currently I do not define a height on
the flowContainer. The vbox and its parent make up a itemRenderer
component for a list.

Is it possible to get the height of the flowContainer? so I know how
to size the overall row? I have tried var rowHeight:int =
flowContainer.height but it does not work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I need to know how to handle the other events generated by the datagrid
component while an update is being performed.  For example, I have an
editable datagrid into which numeric values can be entered.  When the
user edits a cell and presses enter, or otherwise clicks off the line, a
database table is updated with the data (via a remote object call) on
the line on which the cell was edited.  During the update, I want to
prevent the user from inputting any data into other cells.  I have found
that, by repeatedly hitting enter after editing a cell, and before the
update is complete, the screen freezes.  Worse yet, if I repeatedly edit
a cell and hit enter before the update is complete, the screen freezes
and data on a line that has an error will be updated.  Can you give me
an example of how to handle this situation?  

 

I will appreciate any help.

RE: [flexcoders] Is this possible?

[Tracy Spratt]

Yes, in this case it would be worth getting our language accurate.

 

Flex is a client-side technology, and does not run on a server.  The swf 
executes in a Flash Player instance hosted in a browser.  Except for security 
sandbox issues, it is irrelevant what server serves the swf.  If you run a 
Flex app on a server, that server is really a local client, and the Flex 
app has no more functionality than it would from any remote client.

 

That simplifies this question to: Can Flex upload and delete images on a 
server.  The answeer is as Luciano says, yes, but you must have some 
server-side functionality to do it.

  I want to have a Flex app that will run on server A but it will upload
 and delete images from server B. Is this easy to do or is this going to be a
 pain in the butt?

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to build a Flex 3 app that will play in Flash Player 7 for Wii

[Jim Hayes]

I don't believe so, flex 3 is AS3 only as far as I know.

Bummer. I was hoping to reuse 'some' code from our main application.

Do you know the dev environment that supports building Flash 7 applications?

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to build a Flex 3 app that will play in Flash Player 7 for Wii

[Tracy Spratt]

In that case, Flex 1.5, if you recall, was built on an on-demand,
server-side process, web-tier compiler architecture.  Apps were not
pre-compiled into swfs, ie, no SDK.

 

So any editor is fine, but, of course, you have to have the Flex server
to run the app.  Obviously this is the case if this is a legacy app.

 

Flex Builder 1.5 was built on Dreamweaver.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to build a Flex 3 app that will play in Flash Player 7 for Wii

[Nick Collins]

Yeah, I remember. I also remember that it was prohibitively expensive to
acquire. I don't know how the licensing might work with it being so
outdated, so he'll have to check with Adobe on that.

That being said, with the Open Screen project now available, it may not be
too long before there is a Flash Player 9 for the Wii, as he's looking for.

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to build a Flex 3 app that will play in Flash Player 7 for Wii

[Battershall, Jeff]

I wouldn't get  your hopes up - at least as far as Flex 2 or 3 is
concerned.  You can use component versions that shipped with Flash 2004
+ AS2.  You could do alot of things, including remoting, but it would be
a relatively slow and arduous process to develop.  It is possible to
compile Flex 1.5 apps using mxmlc to standalone swfs, but there are
licensing hurdles to surmount.

You mean to run a shell script or something after a compile? You can do 
that by using the FB external tool builders GUI (or named something 
like that).
There is a GUI setting somewhere in there or you can create a dir called
.externalToolBuilders (if its not there already) and create a launch 
file eg) MyExternalCommand.launch with the follwoing contents:

prawn:~/Documents/myproject flex$ ls -l .externalToolBuilders/
-rw-r--r--1 flex  flex  634 Aug 15 17:40 CopyTo(flex).launch


(note the call to the .sh script in the xml below - change that to your

prawn:~/Documents/myproject flex$ less 
.externalToolBuilders/CopyTo\(flex\).launch

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to see the Actionscript generated by MXML files?

[Jim Hayes]

There's a compiler option : from the docs  
 
keep-generated-actionscript=true|false 
Determines whether to keep the generated ActionScript class files. 
The generated class files include stubs and classes that are generated
by the compiler and used to build the SWF file.
The default location of the files is the /generated subdirectory, which
is directly below the target MXML file. If the /generated directory does
not exist, the compiler creates one.
The default names of the primary generated class files are
filename-generated.as and filename-interface.as.
The default value is false.
This is an advanced option.
Hth, Jim.

Hi,

I'm currently learning Flex and LCDS and, in order to improve my
understanding of how MXML code is translated into Actionscript code 
during the compilation process, I'd like to be able to look at the
generated Actionscript code. Is this possible?

If not, are there any good explanations of this in the Flex
documentation or in any of the Flex books?

Thanks,

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to save an FLV to a Shared Local Object and open it later ?

[Abdul Qabiz]

I can image that i can be saved by using URLStream (to read) and ByteArray
to store. But how you would play it again?

Not sure, if Video class can take ByteArray to play video... Can Video class
consider FLV as embedded video (which in my opinion is different)?

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to anti-alias fonts without embedding?

[Jon Bradley]

Thanks for any help Alex...

I'm actually having issues on the initial draw of the bitmap - so  
visual problems.


While the user rotates and scales the field, everything is fine and  
dandy. BUT, when the class for handling the bitmap and the text field  
itself is first instantiated, the field is not drawn accurately.


The field draws out at the proper scale, but it doesn't respect the  
new 'width' that the field should have once type is added to it.


For example, the initial size of the created field is some width X  
height. I'm using autosize on the field itself, so when the text is  
changed, the new width and height are used to draw the result onto  
the screen (new bitmap size to match). This works fine during live  
editing, such as changing the text of the field. When the class first  
loads though, I get the right size and color font and Bitmap that it  
should be, but all that is drawn is up to the height/width of the  
field that it was when it was first created.


I looked to see if there was an event for autosize ... to no avail. I  
also tried to use resize events, render events, etc. Nothing has  
solved the problem.


My initial guess is that it might have to do with the styles that get  
set on the field and some type of delay.


Unfortunately, I can't share the code for the classes on the list,  
but I'd be more than happy to send along if you're willing to take a  
look.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to anti-alias fonts without embedding?

[Jon Bradley]

I think I actually fixed it

I was doing this in my constructor for the custom field:

if (m != null)
{
transform.matrix = m;
setTransform(m);
}
else ...

when I should've been doing this:


if (m != identityMatrix)
{
transform.matrix = m;
setTransform(m);
}
else ...

I may or may not pass in a matrix to the class, but the 'optional'  
matrix has to evaluate to something, or else it doesn't compile. So,  
the m matrix is never null, and I was never updating the  
transformations on my class when a custom matrix was loaded up.


Testing local it seems to work when I load up a field that's rotated  
some arbitrary angle. I have to test online though, because I suspect  
there may be an underlying issue with the style loading.


Hope it works...

TextField definitely has quirks.  If you look in TextArea, you'll see
some callLaters used to deal with it.  And I think we don't use
autosize, we trust textWidth/Height and dictate size.

 

Also note that until applicationComplete event, you aren't really on the
display list.

Device fonts are anti-aliased except when cached as bitmaps.  They

The anti-aliasing isn't as good for small fonts as when you embed the
font, so you have to trade off swf size for quality.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to resize a Cursor dynamically?

Thanks for the replies guys.  I didnt see Troy's post at first and made a

different swfs for each cursor I need on demand

I'm going to give Troy's method a try of a monostate class with scale and
url exposed.

Thanks again!

Of course, you're not able to access your specific instance of the class
as the CursorManager creates it internally and its not exposed. So, you have
to be tricky. Either you create a class that's a monostate (all of the
instances of the class share a common state) or have your custom class
listen for some particularly events that you're able to get into the display
list and to your class. Personally, I'd go for the monostate (more
predictable).

You'll need to create a class that inherits from DisplayObject, Sprite
would be a good choice. In your class, I'd add a static member that stores
the current size or scale. And in the ENTER_FRAME event, have your
sprite copy that value into the sprite's scaleX and scaleY members.
Basically, it's manual binding (you could probably do some more traditional
binding as well, but I'm assuming here that you'd probably be using
ENTER_FRAME anyway for some animation).

Pass off your custom cursor sprite class to the CursorManager to use...
internally, it will construct an instant as necessary (based on priority of
cursors, etc.). On your end, just modify the static state (scale) as
necessary. The result will be a cursor that resizes (because the
CursorManager's instance of the class is using the same static state that
you're manipulating).

If you're embedding an SWF, just embed it and use it inside of your custom

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to build an actionscript only app that uses FDS remoting?

[Anatole Tartakovsky]

Hank,
Create trivial MXML project with single remote object/destination. Compile
with -keep-generated-actionscript=true. Look for ...init... class - copy
part of it into your project.
Alternatively, you can use gateway java class that would do server side
translation - one destination talking to that class will support any number
of client destinations.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to build an actionscript only app that uses FDS remoting?

Hi Hank,
I'm not using FDS, but do you mean like this:

 When you configure a flex project for remoting you indicate in the

 settings where the flex server is, but these options are not available 
 for
 an actionscript project. This would suggest that you cannot (or should 
 not)
 do actionscript only projects that do FDS based remoting. My guess is 
 that I
 am supposed to do this with a flex project but it does seem wierd that an
 actionscript project is not supposed to be used for remoting.

 Any insight appreciated.

I've had success in the past converting to EPS format from Flash Player

I'm not sure... when you say FLEX are you thinking of the Flex Builder 
development environment, or the Flex Data Services server, or the Adobe 
Flash Player which is running a SWF which happened to be created using 
the Flex framework?

And where would the resulting PDF file be created... on your development 
machine during development, on your server when a visitor arrives, or 
would a PDF be created and stored on the enduser machine as they 
interact with a SWF?

There could be different paths, depending on where we're starting from, 
where we want to end up...?

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to Inheirt from an MX Application inside of an MX Application ?

[Tracy Spratt]

Yes, this is fine and it is exactly extending the other Application.  It
is apparently called code behind, search the archives for that.

 

Not sure why you are getting the error. 

 

Try this without the namespace name on local namespace declaration:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
ApplicationSecure xmlns=* ...

 

Assuming the two mxml files are in the same folder...

Is it possible to Inheirt from an MX Application inside of an MX 
Application ?

We wish to make two MX applications.

One called:

ApplicationSecure ( file name is ApplicationSecure )

and One called:

ApplicationMain ( file name is ApplicationMain )

ApplicationSecure header looks normal such as:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml  
layout=absolute creationComplete=authenticate()
creationPolicy=all
xmlns:cc=dynaLib.common.components.* 

mx:Script
![CDATA[
...





However we wish ApplicationMain Header to look as the following:


?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
c:ApplicationSecure xmlns:c=* 
xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml  


...


/c:ApplicationSecure

So in ascence ApplicationSecure is inherting from Application.

ApplicationSecure will run first than ApplicationMain.

Everything seems ok, only that the compiler is comlaining that is can 
not find any 
of the MX components in its namespace path.

In other words, it is as if the ApplicationMain is ignoring the line: 
xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml 
becauase we have instructed it to inherit from ApplicationSecure.

Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

Sean.

 

RE: [flexcoders] Is it possible to have an invisible component?

[Tracy Spratt]

Absolutely.  You can instantiate any custom AS class  using a tag.  The
AS class need not extend anything, but often you will want event
dispatching and such.

 

The tag will probably have to be at the top-level, since the standard
containers will not be set up to allow it as a child.

Re: [flexcoders] Is it possible to have an invisible component?

Hi Tracy,

Thank you.

When I was testing I was always adding my AS class as a child of a UI
component, and was getting the error: Component declarations are not
allowed here. (Note: visual children must implement mx.core.IUIComponent)

So, you are correct saying that it needs to be at the top level...

Thanks again!

The Flash Player security sandbox restrictions pretty much prevent

I have loaded some local XML files using the HTTPService. Limitation: you
need to know the path of the file. It's like entering a local file URL into
your browser. Maybe this is not supposed to work, or maybe this is not what
you are trying to do...but I post it anyway...just in case.

mx:HTTPService

What's the channel type and endpoint for a HTTPS polling amf channel???

The differences in the definition between the AMF channels 
and the polling AMF channels are the 'polling-enabled' and 
'polling-interval-seconds' properties.

Here's an example that should get you started 
-

channel-definition class="mx.messaging.channels.SecureAMFChannel" 
id="my-secure-polling-amf" 
endpoint class="flex.messaging.endpoints.SecureAMFEndpoint" uri="https://{server.name}:9100/myapp/messagebroker/amfpollingsecure"/endpoint 
properties 
polling-enabledtrue/polling-enabled 
polling-interval-seconds2/polling-interval-seconds

Re: [flexcoders] is it possible to run background time consuming task in flex2?

Subject: [flexcoders] is it possible to run background time consuming task 
in flex2?



 Hi,

 Flex2/ActionScript programming model is singlethreaded, but it has
 asynchronous IO calls. This means that obviously AVM has threads to
 implement asyncIO.

 I need to perform some time consuming computations within actionscript,
 but I can't spawn new thread in AS. Hence the questions:

 1. can I somehow implement local service which will receive requests and
 post responses (events) to consume in GUI (event dispatch thread)? I
 mean reuse asynchronous IO implementation.

 2. back in windows 3.xx days (single threaded os) there was nested
 event loop approach so within computation loop I can call something
 like dispatchMessages() to prevent UI from lockup. Is it possible with
 flex?

Not that I know of. You might be able to kludge it using a timer to re-enter 
a routine to do some computation, then give up control, etc. It would 
probably seriously compromise the responsiveness of your application.

That kind of process is better suited to the server, where you could get 
back the results on completion.

Paul

There's
no way to redirect trace that I know of, other than to a
different file location. trace is only active when you are using the
debug player. 

There's various debug projects that use a cutom method rather than trace
and print out the debug messages in a different format. I don't know of
any for Flex 2, but here's one for 1.5:
