[Flashcoders] Flash CS3: CellRenderers in loaded swfs don't work if the parent swf exports a cellrenderer?
I have a situation where I have a swf, let's call it child.swf, contains a List component which makes use of a custom cell renderer, CustomCellRenderer, which extends CellRenderer. On it's own, everything works fine. My problem is trying to load it into Main.swf, which also has a List in it's library, and thus the CellRenderer and CellRendererSkins component assets exported with it. When i load child.swf into Main.swf, it finds the CustomCellRenderer class fine, but that class is throwing errors saying that the assets which are supposed to be on stage are not found, which sounds like it can no longer pull the library symbol for CustomCellRenderer. I have custom skins for the scrollbar in the List though that work fine. I have narrowed it down to the CellRenderer symbol being exported in Main.swf. Right now, I am setting LoaderContext.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain for the Loader which is loading child.swf, but I've tried every combo of application/security domain and it's still a no go. It does work if I export the CustomCellRenderer symbol in Main.swf's library, but that is not ideal. Any ideas? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
RE: [Flashcoders] windows user login data and active directory
It's possible if your enterprise uses Windows Single Sign On ( I know because I've done it :) ) - you would need access to that data and then, for example, a .NET script to pass that information via Flashvars or ExternalInterface or whatever to Flash. But it's not possible using Flash alone, and I doubt it's possible, (due to basic security restrictions in both the OS, the browser, and the Flash player) on the generic world wide web user base without some kind of third party app install on the user machine first. So in short, it seems to me: within a controlled enterprise setup, yes, but not via Flash alone... within the generic world wide web, no (unless with some third party install by the user). I could be wrong though, but that's my understanding.

>>Thanks Glenn - I wan't worried about using the frame count, I >>just wondered if there was another mechanism I hadn't thought of. Another possible mechanism is to broadcast a custom event from the swf's timeline when the end is reachded and listen for it elsewhere. However, if one .swf is AVM1 and the other is AVM2, the techniques mentioned for AVM communication between .swfs may or may not work. And yeah, even though some things are possible when you mix a AS2 and AS3 swfs, you're mostly asking for trouble.

Re: [Flashcoders] Cross domain AS3
Are you working in one domain (sandbox) ? I so, then probably you need
to fix the relative path. If your swf is stored in some folder ie:
http://www.mydomain.co.uk/banner/flash/MY.SWF
and it needs to load the image from:
http://www.mydomain.co.uk/banner/flash/uploadedimage/45/sunset.jpg
You can pass to getURL() (or whatever you use for loading) a value:
"uploadedimage/45/sunset.jpg" ... just the way it already like it works for you
1)
If you need the absolute URL then you can use:
var myURL:String = _root._url
Its value will be: http://www.mydomain.co.uk/banner/flash/MY.SWF
(only when on-line)
2)
Next, cut off the swf file:
myURL = myURL.substr(0,myURL.lastIndexOf("/"))
trace(myURL); // outputs: http://www.mydomain.co.uk/banner/flash/
3)
...and add you relative path:
myURL += "uploadedimage/45/sunset.jpg";
If you SWF is not in a folder directly above the JPG, then you can cut
off more directories in point 2)

Re: [Flashcoders] AS 2.0 (AS 3.0) question - knowing when a MovieClip is on it's last frame.
If you are loading an AS2 SWF into an AS2 swf, you can cast the loaded
SWF to a class of your choice by using the __proto__ method which is
shown below:
Then you write a class that has an enter frame / tick, etc. to monitor
playback and cast your loaded SWF to an instance of this (Animation is
my class that monitors the _currentframe, etc.):
private var _player:MovieClip;
private var _currentAnim:Animation;
private var _loader:MovieClipLoader;
private function _loadAnim(file:String):Void {
_loader.addListener(this);
_loader.loadClip(file, _player);
}
//Implement MovieClipLoader listener functions
private function onLoadInit(pClip:MovieClip) {
_loader.removeListener(this);
_player.stop();
_player.__proto__ = Animation.prototype;
_player.__constructor__ = Animation;
_player.__constructor__.apply(_player);
_player._lockroot = true;
_currentAnim = Animation(_player);
_currentAnim.addEventListener("animend", Delegate.create(this,
_playNextIntro));
_currentAnim.rewind();
_currentAnim.stop();
}
If you are loading into an AS3 swf, you can't do this and I am not sure,
but I guess you do have to do the onEnterFrame work around.

Re: [Flashcoders] Firefox popup blocker and flash 9
Viktor and Glen are right..
The user has to initiate the geturl and it has to be on a onRelease so it's
as user friendly as possible.. by this way after pressing he can decide to
not releasing on the button anyway.
the "allowScript access" as a param is only needed when you'r swf is on a
different subdomain ..
for instance your site is site.myurl.com and your swf comes from
files.myurl.com

The Flash Player is a browser plugin (and presumably looks like a black

window from the Flash Player, it probably can't tell whether this request
is user initiated (thus legit) or not, so the blocker kicks in and blocks
it. At least that's my theory (i definately don't know the technical
