Local connection is probably a better option. Do you have a compelling use-case for having two swfs? That complicates issues considerably. Tracy Spratt, Lariat Services, development services available _ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcod...@yahoogroups.com] On Beha

[flexcoders] Sharing objects (BitmapData) between 2 loaded swfs

Hello everyone, I'm wondering if Flex has the capability of having 2 loaded swfs on a webpage that share the same complex objects, in memory. What I want to do load a bitmapdata in A.swf, and then reference & use it both in A.swf and B.swf at the same time. I'd like when the bitmap in A.swf get

RE: [flexcoders] Re: var circle:Sprite = new Sprite(); Not working

You do NOT want to use rawChildren, stick with normal practices.. Sprite is too low level to add to a Flex container. You need to wrap it in a UIComponent. I don't have a real example, but it will be something like: var uic:UIComponent = new UIComponent(); uic.addChild(circle); this.addChi

Thanks Tracy, Nate! Ok, that worked, in that it got rid of the errors. But then I got a type conversion error about not being able to convert a Sprite to a UIComponent. So I read throught some blogs and found this rawchildren solution and using Shape too. So now I get a circle on the screen

Still using Windows XP and trying Eclipse Ganymede with Flex 3. The messages going back to 9/08 discuss Ganymede problems but without a clear explanation. I have installed Eclipse 3.2.2 and Flex3 and that works but when installing Eclipse current version (Ganymede) it does not. On Adobe.com an e

Re: [flexcoders] var circle:Sprite = new Sprite(); Not working

Tracy beat me to it... but I'm going to send my email as well :). This is because your code isn't in an event handler. In MXML you can't have "free-floating" script, just like in an ActionScript 3 class, you can't have circle.graphics.beginFill(0x99) outside of a method. I recommend doing the

RE: [flexcoders] var circle:Sprite = new Sprite(); Not working

That error is often caused by attempting to initialize a complex variable outside of a function. This is because of the way mxml files are generated into classes. Declare the circle variable in instance scope as you have, but do the initialization in a function called by creationComplete.

Yes, you can get xml data from a SQL-Server database directly through xPath url queries. The risk here though is that it opens up the possibility of SQL injection and isn't that secure. Your options are to create your own .Net web services or look into using a middle tier solution like WebOrb; f
