Hi John, Yes I have developed apps that use external mp3 files, that was a last year so I'm trying to remember if we had any gotchyas. It should work. Are you sure you are bundling the mp3 files properly with your app so they exist on the iPad? If I come up with any ideas I'll let you know.

[Flashcoders] Dispatching events from V to C

Say I have a save button that can exist in multiple views and can save multiple things. What's the best way to do this? Dispatch a different custom event from each type of button? Send one type of custom event with different parameters? I have a controller that listens for 28 different custom

I usually have Events that match the data (for lack of a better word) they are related with. eg: NewsEvent, UserEvent, etc.. Events then contain one or more static constants representing different event types. eg: NewsEvent.GET_NEWS, NewsEvent.UPDATE_NEWS, UserEvent.LOGIN, UserEvent.LOGOUT,

Usually I let the view detail the event handlers, which in turn call the appropriate controller methods. In this case, each view would have something like private function saveButton_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{ this.controller.save(/*here is the differing parameter*/); } Where the

How does the controller know about each command class? Is each instantiated by the controller? Do the command classes talk directly to the model or view or back through the controller? On 3/15/12 4:44 PM, Peter Ginneberge p.ginnebe...@telenet.be wrote:

[Flashcoders] AIR and external mp3's
