SWF parsing isn't as easy as you'd think. Most of the packages are limited at best and fail depending on how the report was generated.
Heres a free utility that helps with low-level flash development. http://www.opaque.net/~dave/flasm/ Cheers, Kevin -----Original Message----- From: John Paul Ashenfelter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 17, 2005 2:13 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Parsing a FlashPaper 2 (swf) file? Folks, Is there any straightforward way to parse the Flashpaper 2 swf file to extract the data in a more usable format? I'm receiving reports (think MS Access-style reports) in that format and don't have any experience with it. To further complicate things, this isn't a CF project -- but would prefer a Java solution. I tried http://www.anotherbigidea.com/javaswf/ which could parse out some information, but I didn't get any useful text. It looks like the Perl SWF:Parser package might be an alternative as well. Anyone have suggestions about getting the text out of the file? -- John Paul Ashenfelter CTO/Transitionpoint (blog) http://www.ashenfelter.com (email) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:209865 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
