Hi guys,
I haven't had a chance to delve into using AS3 yet, and I know the AS1 and
AS3 runtime engines in the Flash 9 player are totally seperate, but is it
not possible for AS2 movies to share data with AS3 at all? Surely an AS3
movie can load an AS2 movie into itself and access it's
Anything is possible :)
You can use flashinterface to communicate with as2 components and then
return the events back.
That would be possible. It just makes it a lot more cumbersome -- that's
all.
The flashinterface package is quite sophisticated as it uses
localconnection to return and

Regarding Jason's question, NO. As yet Flash CS3 has no AS3
classes/components for WebService or Remoting. And no where

There's a F8/AS2 version of Papervision, though I'd probably
suggest going the F9/AS3 route. As far as
Remoting/WebServices, I'm pretty sure they'll come out with
an add-on package like they did with the previous versions.
On top of that, if you wanted to build a Flash App, why not

I have posted a new thread here on FlashCoders with the

Cool. How about calling a WSDL - Webservice? Not possible in CS3?

Jason,
Regarding How about calling a WSDL - Webservice? Not possible in CS3?
First I just want to rephrase that as Flash CS3 AS3 because for the AS2
components (aka V2 components) nothing has changed from Flash MX 2004 to
Flash 8 to Flash CS3 (except FLVPlayback being introduced with Flash 8).
Wow, thanks for that post. Excellent information. That's a huge blow.
So basically when it comes to Flash CS3 with AS3 all of us who have been
using Webservices classes in Flash and want to keep doing so have only a
few choices:
1) Learn Flex instead and try and make what you want to do in
The complaint is that there's no AS3 version of the Data
components and some UI Components (like the Tree)
And that really bites because I use and abuse the Tree component on a
regular basis in my AS2 / Flash MX04/8 projects!

Yes, who would have believed that Flash CS3 would yield AS3 components that
are:
- a reduced set of UI components from AS2
- no data components
- elimination of databinding
And as Randy points out, all this in the run up to Microsoft's Silverlight
release. Based on my decades of
What is the alternative to a
tree component in CS3 within the Adobe world - is there
something in Flex which replaces it?
Yes, there is a nice Tree component in Flex.

Yes, Flex has AS3 versions of all of the components that Flash 8 had and
then some. That is the point.
The message is pretty clear: If you want a comprehensive, state of the art
component set use Flex.
You can preview the full set of Flex UI components here:
I think the main factor on the components was more of a time factor to
meet with the CS3 release timing as opposed to just removing functionality.
Most new releases of a software don't remove functionality, but
deprecate it. Removing something like the tree component or web services

You can do remoting with Netconnection.calls.
Web Services are nonexistent for flash player 9 apps created in flash 9
cs3.
We definitely need to get this integrated fully.

Apparently the flash 9 cs3 compiler uses the same compiler so I dont see
why this couldnt be done to integrate parts of the flex framework
components into flash. That would be awesome.
That's not as easy as it sounds. Base classes work differently, styling
works differently, etc pp, Flash

Good points.
My only thing on the upgrading is, you make an application that includes
some components from version 8.
You then get the new software (version 9) and try to port an application
over to use it in version 9 to take advantage of the speed and other
features, etc. Skinning, e4X -

I think it's kind of odd actually. Remove functionality in the newest

convert all the components to as3 - seems kind of odd though.
The web service removal is a major problem though as this is kind of a
