lingo-l Embedded devices

2004-04-05 Thread Ayman
Dear List:

Hello all,

Our company is planning to develop a Multimedia software that must work with
a small machine PDA, or Palm, so we must decide the type of (Hardware -
Software - Operating system) and the Question is:
1- is there a shockwave player (for director) for small Embedded devices,
and if so what is the best system that works with that player (Palm OS,
Linux Embedded, Symbian, .. other ...)
2- If we can't run a director file on these small machines, what is the best
program for multimedia software that will run a lot of Sound files with cue
points inside.

Thanks in Advance

Ayman

lingo-l find property-names of flash obect

2004-04-05 Thread Valentin Schmidt
hi list,

does anyone know a way to find out the existing properties (their names)
of a flash object in dir mx/mx2004 by means of lingo? As they enumerated
in the object inspector, there must be a way to find them, but can this
be done with lingo?

I think it's the properties within the Flash member that were needed, 
which you can get with sprite(n).objectlist.

lingo-l Wayward Flash Components

2004-04-05 Thread Troy Rollins
We built and installed some Flash components for use in a project. 
After removing them, from Director's components folder, they still show 
up. After removing them from the 
library:applicationsupport:macromedia:directormx2004:components folder, 
and it still shows up. A complete search of my hard disk does not show 
the file - but it is still available in Director.

Something about the catalog.xml and Director's component cache... how 
does one clear this cache? Or is it something else entirely?

Found it. Delete the aptly named dirapi.mch file hidden deep in your 
user prefs.

Just a question as an aside,

Did you try to install one of these non-existent components?
Did Director give a useful error msg, or did something not so nice happen?

Install?... Well, we had placed components of our own in the Director 
components folder, which we needed for one project. It was the removing 
part that didn't work. The component names had been cached...

Did Director give a useful error msg, or did something not so nice 
happen?
Letsee, useful error message... ah no. My component library panel 
still showed all the removed components, though adding them to the cast 
would only make a phantom (non-component) cast member. Also, since we 
had replaced Text Area temporarily... that button disappeared from my 
tool palette, even though the textArea.SWC was still in my components 
folder. Basically, Director lost its mind, and was using ONLY the cache 
to determine what components to use. No errors or messages of any kind. 
Just basic loss of functionality.

I guess I should have said: 'try to use' (instead of 'install')

If I remember correctly, that file gets rewritten upon quitting -
Did these ghost components show in a later session?

Oh yes. Until the file was deleted, then recreated on the next quit.
