SharedObject.getRemote.  That is exactly what I was looking for.  Thanks!

I think you're better off not using a gateway for file uploads. I
don't know if a gateway will work at all for that. The URL to which
you upload can perform whatever post-processing you need.

RE: [Flashcoders] Re: image upload from flex to .net

[Merrill, Jason]

I don't have a lot of detail for you, but we have had good success using
Webservices built in C#.NET and calling them from Flash and Flex.  We
used FileReference class to upload images from Flash to the Webservice
and C# handled the file from there to place it on the server's
filesystem.

RE: [Flashcoders] AS2 SharedObject with Red5

[Chris Foster]

Hi Andrew,

Under Flash Communication Server (OK, it was a long time ago!) I'd do
this using a Remote Shared Object.

That would provide persistent stored information that could be accessed
by multiple clients. Is that what you want to do?

RE: [Flashcoders] Access shared object from other class

[Barry Hannah]

You're declaring it as a public variable, so if your other class has a
relationship with your main instance you should have direct access:
yourMainInstance._sharedBoardObject;

I suspect what you're missing is a relationship with the instance of
Main.

Hello,

How to acces remote shared object from other class?

I have

package {
   import flash.net.*;
   import flash.display.*;

   public class Main extends Sprite {

   public var _sharedBoardObject:SharedObject;
   public var ncBoard:NetConnection;
   public var rtmpAddress:String;

   _sharedBoardObject =
SharedObject.getRemote("sharedBoard02",
ncBoard.uri, false);
   _sharedBoardObject.connect(ncBoard);

   }
   }
}

I would like to add some data or modify shared object.
How can I acces _sharedBoardObject from another class?
Or maybe I need to connect to "sharedBoard02" directly?

Pass it as a parameter. For example

var myNewObj:SomeClass = new SomeClass(_sharedBoardObject);

or perhaps

var myNewObj:SomeClass = new SomeClass();
myNewObj.sharedBoardObject = _sharedBoardObject;

Also look carefully at your coding conventions an underscore prefix is 
generally used for private class variables.

Re: [Flashcoders] Access shared object from other class

Not positive, but I think you have to have the public variable  
outside any functions or extended classes.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

   import flash.display.*;
   public var _sharedBoardObject:SharedObject;
   public class Main extends Sprite {

   public var ncBoard:NetConnection;

   _sharedBoardObject = SharedObject.getRemote

ncBoard.uri, false);
   _sharedBoardObject.connect(ncBoard);

   }

SV: [Flashcoders] Component (dataGrid) issues flash 8 destroyObjectvs removeMovieClip

[Mikael Wirén]

Hi guys,
All your answers put me in the right direction, thanks a bunch for that.
After some deep digging i found 2 things needed to delete the instance of my
dataGrid (for real).

1. locking the root of the container movieClip.
2. swapping depths of the dynamically added (container) movieclip before
purging it.

But, that puts me back to the question of using destroyObject() vs.
delete().
Can anyone shed some light on the difference between them?
Both seems to be doing the same thing memorywise.

Thanks again for good info as always.

/Micke

Possibly, but I have not worked with data grids.
But deleting it completely will clear it so when you load it again it
will probably let the scroll bar get the correct height.
I'm thinking.

[Flashcoders] RE: how to set DataGridColumn textAlign

[Craig Bowman]

In AS3: 

 

Alignment of text for a column in a DataGrid component is handled indirectly
through the TextFormat object which is used in styling text by the
cellRenderer of a DataGridColumn.

 

I often create custom cellRenderers for the DataGrid to handle pictures,
video, radio button groups, comboboxes, etc. and aligning various items used
in and by the cellRenderers is handled in this manner.

 

Also something to note: There are errors in the component architecture in
the way certain calculations were set up between objects. For example, the
HeaderRenderer class of the fl.controls.dataGridClasses has one of these in
the drawLayout function. You can simply derive a new class from the
HeaderRenderer and then do an override on the drawLayout function to make
the necessary adjustments. Without that, your HeaderText isn't going
anywhere, regardless of how you want it aligned.

 

 

Cheers,

 

Craig Bowman

[Flashcoders] SWF compiling

[John Bertrand]

For Actionscript 3 (specifically Flash Player 9+) is it correct to say there 
are no longer any third party actionscript compilers?

So to create a SWF file, you have 2 options - 1) the Flash IDE OR 2) FlexSDK.

The reason I ask is because I'm confused when an actionscript class contains a 
SWF tag, eg:

[SWF(backgroundColor="#00", frameRate="60", quality="LOW", width="800", 
height="600")]

What does this do because it seems to me that FlexBuilder ignores this and I 
know the Flash IDE ignore it?

Ignore that last question. The SWF metadata is very much used when compiling in

So my question now becomes:

Are there only two types of metadata used in actionscript classes, being SWF 
and EMBED?
