By the lack of feedback do I take it that no one is knowledgeable on this
topic???
Any help would be appreciated or pointers to some information on this. I
can't believe I am the only person on this list that has had to make an
application for Europe!
I have searched myself but with no luck.
Now i think of it..
I believe the character extending program works with indexes where you can
place/draw the character.. to get the right index/spot where a new character
should go in a font i believe we compared it with Arial.. the reason was
that Arial was pretty complete.

Hey Michael,
For a big european platform i have a multilanguage application that has 11
languages in it now.
English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Portugees, Italian, Polish,
Swedish, Denish and for Norway.
I remember collecting info from sites like listed below:
Thanks Dennis
This app needs 28 countries, i.e. the whole of Europe which is why we are
using Arial as it has the full character set needed including Armenian,
Cyrillic and Greek. It's just that I wanted to split it into its different
locales so that countries did not need to load in
It's basically a macro process for compiling AS classes.
One of the side effects is that it can be to obfuscate SWF files by
using your own re-write rules. Hit up the second page of the thread
to see a bit more information.
Macros are pretty cool stuff. Though the author of the toolset

Hi list,
I'm loading a XML file with the URLLoader class into a v9 SWF. On Firefox it
all works without problem but on IE 6 and 7 the XML file doesn't get loaded,
instead I get HTTPStatus 200.
I don't have much experience with all the new AS3 Security stuff yet so I'd

Hey,
Interesting thought for reducing filesize :)
If the brand's are known, you could always just incluse their characters..
but i take it you ment that.
I went for a look at the designers pc..99% sure it's Font Lab Studio
(version 5) ..
Their might be a newer one out.. or a better program
Though, one could just use Haxe instead...
Yeah, I prefer it anyway.
But I wonder, did anybody compare haXe vs AS3 bytecode yet? A
decompiler is likely to assume AS3 has been used, and maybe haXe
creates sufficiently different bytecode to confuse it.

In other words, everything should be fine.

Hi Flashcoders,
Learning AS3 in the deep end at the moment, so excuse the questions if
too newb for this list.
In AS2 I may have done something like the following.
_1___
if(myObject){
myObject.removeMovieClip();
}
this.attachMovie(MyObject,myObject,1);
I am using the datagrid for the first time and would like to make one of
the columns enable text to word wrap if the text is too long for the width
of the cell.
Here is what I have so far which works but is only giving me a single line
of text in the cell
dg.setSize(340, 300);
Another idea...
Would it be possible to add to the SWF some malicious bytecode ?
The process:
user tries to decompile a SWF. When trying to read the bytecode,
decompiler stumbles upon the malicious bytecode which makes, let's
say, windows, go out of reach... ? (overflow, bluescreen ...?)
But I wonder, did anybody compare haXe vs AS3 bytecode yet? A

I don't know about haxe as3 pcode.

That doesn't really matter. If it's FP9, it's AS3. The
if(myObj.stage)
will give you back if its on the siplay tree otherwise
myObj.parent == parentObj

So, maybe half your code in the end will be pretty funked up. That's
still probably more than enough to make use of the decompiled code.
Wouldn't anybody who could get that far be too busy writing their own code?

Another method would be to catch the error:

In AS3, when I call MovieClip.gotoAndStop(), any symbol that are added to the

numChildren *does* count the newly added symbols but getChildAtIndex() only
returns null!
Worse, after the function stack is cleared and

If you use the try, catch method that shouldn't be a problem.

That should fail unless myObject has been added to the stage.

Well, in my opinion, Java is much more OOP. PHP is really nothing more than
just scripts. It will eventually hit a ceiling and be limited in what it can

You have to worry much less about Memory leaks, and
syntactically, the language is simpler than C++, so
saying that it's become more complicated than C++ is
total bull.

If you want to check first whether the object is on the display list you can
use the contains method of DisplayObjectContainer:
// Won't throw any errors
if (myObject != null parent.contains(myObject))
parent.removeChild(myObject)

I used both PHP and Java for server-side development, and although my
clients mostly ask for PHP (this is due to the strange PHP loving of
hosting providers here), I far more prefer Java. Just few points
why:
Language features
# PHP
- no strict typing
- horror of automatic type conversions
Eclipse, Spring, Hibernate, AXIS and Java is a pretty nice toolkit.
