Integrating flash with swings

Hi,
Im looking to integrate flash with swings. This is for a desktop application, not a web based application. I was looking for some help on this, if someone could help me with it.

Flash is proprietary technology and they don't play nice with others. Same reason why you can't load an MSWord doc in a Java GUI. If Flash WAS an open technology, then perhaps someone would/could build a plugin or some way to do it.

    from and access database. i would like to make the entire page in
    flash. i have never used flash to pull any content from a datbase
    before. does any one know how to do this ? or know of a good

    Flash has nothing to do with getting data from an Access
    database.
    You need to focus on either ASP or ASP.Net, a scripting
    language for the
    server script either JScript or VBScript, middleware usually
    ADO or ADO.Net
    and finally SQL. All of these items go together in a server
    side script that
    could work with non-Flash or Flash client interfaces. You
    should find many
    tutorials on the internet with these items as it has been
    done for nearly a
    decade.
    You also can use ColdFusion.
    For Flash, you need to learn LoadVars Actionscript class if
    you plan to
    communicate data in the URL Variables format or XML
    Actionscript class if
    you want to use XML data format. It will not really matter to
    Flash what is
    on the server side as it will only be sending and receiving
    data in either
    of those two data formats (URL Variables or XML).
    If you want to look at some Using VBScript, ASP, ADO and an
    OLEDB Connection
    examples I use for seminars in Web database you can take a
    look here:
    http://www.hosfordusa.com/ClickSystems/courses/webdb/.
    However they lack
    Flash example but would work "as is" with a Flash example.
    Once you look at some of those options, you can then form
    more specific
    questions for this forum and especially with using the
    LoadVars and XML
    Actionscript classes or the XML connector Flash component.

  • Integrating Flash with Lectora 2006

    Dear all,
    Does anyone know how I can create a variable in Flash AS 2.0
    that can communicate with a SCORM wrapped Lectora course on an LMS
    (the Flash movie would be within the course as an external HTML
    object)?
    Also, how do I do the reverse and create a varible in Lectora
    (i.e. QuestionPoints) and be able to write to and increment its
    value from within the embedded Flash movie?
    Much appreciated.
    Ant.

  • Integrating Flash With Captivate 4

    I wonder if anyone can help me. I have searched the net and these forums but I can't seem to find any answers to my problems. I am attempting to create a quiz in Flash and put it into Captivate, (using the course builder section, I have the e-learning package). I can do this but the quiz just seems to play through and not stop. Does anyone know how to do this correctly? Is there anything I should add into the scripting? And should this be done in Flash or Captivate? Would greatly appreciate any help.
    Also is Flash the best way to try to modify or enhance Captivate? The person I'm creating this for wants something like a Raptivity Quiz in a Captivate program. So far I seem unable to create anything in Flash that will work correctly in Captivate. Again I'd be greatful if anyone could shed any light.

    Hi there
    Sure, lots of folks here create Flash Widgets and Gizmos and use them with Captivate. So it does actually work. Likely you just need to figure out the relationship. (I'm not a Flash savvy person, so I don't mix the two)
    Question here though. Captivate has its own quizzing built into the product. Why Flash? Does it do quizzing better? Or was this just someone's requirement without having any knowledge Captivate does quizzing?

  • Integrating Flash With Java Game

    hi guys,
    i'm doing the final touch up for my RPG, i plan to put flash animation as intro before my game starts, is it possible to call .swf file directly from java itself, how am i gonna make it possible??Please advice~
    Thanks~

    here's that dhtml trick I was telling you about:

              font: 10pt tahoma,verdana,serif;
    --></style>
    <script language="javascript"><!--
         /* edit the next two variables to your swf/applet tags
         * after trying this example out
         var swfTag = "[your swf tag here] pretend this is a <a href=\"javascript:flipTags();\">link</a> in your swf object";
         var appletTag = "[your applet tag here]";
         var swf = true;
         /* when this gets called, the switch of tags is made */
         function flipTags() {
              var tagArea = document.getElementById("tagArea");
              if (swf) tagArea.innerHTML = appletTag;
              else tagArea.innerHTML = swfTag;
              swf = !swf;
    //--></script>

         document.write(swfTag);
    //--></script>
    </div>
    </body>

  • Integrating Flash into Dreamweaver

    Hello All,
    I am a newbie and just finished a Flash class. However we
    didn't hardly talk at all about integrating Flash with Dreamweaver.
    What I want to do is create an intro page that has Flash and
    then you have to click on a Button to go into the main site. I
    understand a little of Behaviors and Actionscripting so thought
    that I would do the GetURL Behavior (going off memory here) to get
    me from the Intro page to the main Dreamweaver site.
    Question is... do I export an SWF file, put that in a
    index.html page for the Intro page and then link to the main
    Dreamweaver site but have the main site not an "Index" file but
    another name...maybe main.html.
    Is this what people do? Or do they take the generated .html
    file from Flash (its published) and just use that as their intro.
    Naming it index.html. And then linking to another *.html created
    with Dreamweaver but that is not saved as index.html.
    Also, how often are people doing a PURE Flash website and not
    mixing the Flash and Dreamweaver together? Just curious.
    Thanks for clarifying.
    Computerkitten

    Hmm... looks ok to me. You should be able to place it in a
    folder without
    problem. I'd try using SWFObject to put the Flash on the page
    though - that
    _might_ fix your problem. Odd one.

  • Integrating Flash CS3 with XML

    Hello, I done a tutorial from learnflash.com on Integrating
    Flash CS3 with XML, and I can't figure out why when the file is
    published the scrollbar component doesn't work.

    Yep, big difference. Flash CS3 is the earlier version of
    Flash, so you can't open CS4 files in CS3. You are probably
    confusing CS3 with AS3, which is supported by both versions of
    Flash CS#.

  • Advice on integrating Flash and HTML

    I have googled and researched this topic on the web.
    Integrating Flash and HTML seems like a popular topic but much of
    the information is dated (using FS commands or solutions based on
    2000-2004 coding and/or hacks) I am using Flash CS3 and Dreamweaver
    CS3. I can use Actionscript 2 or Actionscript 3. Here is my goal
    I want to use a Flash navigation in the top third of my page
    and have it control and load new HTML pages in the bottom two
    thirds of the page. Some of these html pages use SPRY code but most
    are simple HTML pages. I prefer Flash over CSS because I have more
    control and predictability. What I have found so far is three
    different solutions.
    1.HTML Framesets. This seems like a really good idea but I
    thought using framesets was a fading technique and should be
    avoided. Is this true?
    2. Using the ExternalInterface class to communicate between
    Javascript and Actionscript. This also seemed like a good idea but
    it is not clear to me how to implement. Do I combine this with
    innerHTML or some type of AJAX technique.
    3. Keep everything in Flash and load different swfs into main
    Flash page. I like this idea the best and it would work for most
    pages but I still like html pages when there is alot of text or I
    want to use SPRY techniques.
    When I have posted elsewhere I get references to articles
    telling me why Flash is bad or framesets are bad or innerHTML is
    not standard HTML. The only thing I am sure about is that most
    people are pretty passionate about defending their own way of doing
    things. I am hoping someone can provide some solid information
    about what is possible and how to implement a solution.

    It works when you put it online... :)1

  • Flash replaces Swing?

    I recently downloaded an evaluation version of jFlash from sesma.com and it seems that Flash makes sense as an alternative for building impressive front end GUI's. Although It took me a while to get up to speed, in the end I could control Flash movies as Java objects. Pretty impresive. What do you guys think?

    If you think about it, the problem with swing is that developers and graphics artists need to be the same person in order to get the job done. When I write swing code, it might work like a jet engine, but it looks like I just took a dump on the screen. I guess you need to be really good a writing a lot of code to make swing look good (too much work -for me at least). Products like jFlash, would problably allow Java developers to work on the stuff that makes the application solid, and in parallel Flash developers can write flash adhereing to whatever the Java developer specs out. And in the end, you end up with a solid app, and a beautiful front end.

  • Flash in Swing

    Is there any way that you can import and use flash in swing?

    I am still trying but if you have Flash 5.0 you will get
    flash.jar file.
    Any way try to get Activex control or Flash Player version 5.0 with
    that you will get the Flash.jar File and how to use it. I think to use this jar file Flash version need to be 2 or 3
    I tried a lot but unable to do. It has all functions like getFrame,play(),stop.
    If you get info please mail me

  • Can I build a GUI application with SWING only without [import java.awt.*;]

    I have seen several threads (in forums), books and tutorials about SWING and I see that they all mix SWING with AWT (I mean they import both Swing and AWT in their code).
    The conclusion that comes out is:
    It is good to learn about SWING and forget AWT as it won't be supported later. I have decided to do so, and I never include <<import java.awt.*;>> in my code.
    But I see that you cannot do much without <<import java.awt.*;>>. For example this line which changes the background color:
    <<frame.getContentPane().setBackground(Color.red)>>
    works only with <<import java.awt.*;>>. I have seen that codes in this and other forums import awt to change the background. Why is that?
    After all, I wonder, what can I do;
    My question is, can I change the background (and of course do all other things listener, buttons etc) without using <<import java.awt.*;>>.
    I would like to avoid using <<import java.awt.*;>> and using awt since my program will not work later.
    In addition, I believe there is no point to learn awt, which later will not exist.
    I know, I must have misunderstood something. I would appreceate it very much, if anyone could give me even a short answer.
    Thank you in advance,
    JMelsi

    Since swing is a layer on top of awt, AWT will exist for as long as swing does.
    If sun does ever remove AWT they will have to replace it something else swing can layer on to and you will probably only have to replace your import statements.
    The main difference is the way there drawn to the screen.
    You can do custom drawing on swing components but you can't on AWT.
    If your using a desktop PC system it's probably best to use swing just in case you wish to do some custom drawing.
    awt uses less memory than swing and is faster but swing can be extended. awt comes only as standard.
    Say for example you wish to implement a JButton with a ProgressBar below the button text, this can be done with swing!
