There is no Actionscript API for introspecting the contents of a loaded SWF. The swf bytes are "interpreted" on load and stuck in other structures like ApplicationDomain which are not inspectable.
A desperate person would load the swf as a bytearray, decompile it, then loadbytes it. ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of helihobby Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2007 9:34 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Is it possible to query a Flash SWF for its images / symbol list ? Thanks for that ... That I can do ... But I was hoping someone can shed light on how to get a list of all available Symbols from a loaded SWF. I know it is possible since that's what all these SWF Decompilers do. But how do you do it in actionscript ? Will see, maybe someone knows.
