Listen for events from an embedded Swf

Hi there,
I have spend so long searching for an answer on the web but can not find any that works, please help!
I'm not even sure if this is possible but if anyone can guide me in the right direction I would most appreciate it!
Basically what I would like to do is to load a swf in to my flex application - contrary to my post title it doesnt even have to be embedded - when the loaded swf finishes playing it's animation I want for it to dispatch an event and for flex to listen for that event and trigger a function when the event is captured.
The animation is made in Flash CS3. I have not used any classes, rather on the last frame I set up an action to dispatch an event like this:
dispatchEvent(new Event("finishedPlaying"));
In my Flex Application I load my swf using swfLoader and I add an event listener to it like so:
mySwfLoader.addEventListener("finishedPlaying", test);
and my function is like this:
private function test():void
trace("it worked!");
This is not working at all and I'm sure I am missing something but I cant seem to find any straightforward answer on the internet!
Is it at all possible for a swf made in flash to communicate with flex??
Since they are both written in AS3, I figured it would be easy but alas!
If anyone can help me I would most appreciate it, thank you in advance!!
By the way I have also tried:
mySwfLoader.content.addEventListener("finishedPlaying", test);
but no luck....

You have to wait for the swf to complete loading before adding the event listener.
When are you adding the event listener?
mySwfLoader.addEventListener("finishedPlaying", test);
Have a look at the SWFLoader complete event:

Listening to Events from inside loaded swf

In Flash Builder 4 I have a swfLoader with which I load swf files. The swf files that get loaded get created in Flash Pro, and I would like to be able to listen for events from the level that they get loaded from. What would I have to specify in the Flash file for the path? Can't seem to be able to specify the right path.
Thanks a lot for any help!

I wouldnt say this is elegant but we have been having issues gaining direct access to the SWF's loaded in via OSMF. However I have done setups where I dispatch an event from a SWF and have it bubble up and catch it on the MediaContainer level. Not elegant but works- otherwise may need to make a custom MediaElement and bypass the SWFElement to gain tighter control - seems like there should be a better way, but I havnt found it.

Listen for Events from anywhere

Hello!
I have an application with a rather complicated component hierarchy.
How can I have it so that I can listen for events from any component in any component, regardless of who is who's child?
Thank you!

You need a broadcasting mechanism.
Many architecture framework offers this facility, but as a quick hack you can try something like
public class Broadcaster extends EventDispatcher ( singleton anti pattern )
instance
then just do Broadcaster.instance.addEventListener or removeEventListener. it's a crappy singleton, but at least it does not hold any global state.
I've also seen people use Application.application to dispatch/listen globally but really don't like it.
Note : Use weak references or your views will never be eligible for garbage collections.

Listening for UncaughtErrorEvents from SubApp loaded by SWFLoader

I can't seem to get my uncaughtErrorEvents listener to fire when attached to the loader.uncaughtErrorEvents or loaded content's loaderInfo.uncaughtErrorEvents when loading a swf via SWFLoader.
I have a main Flex Application ('A.swf') loading a SubApplication (defined in' B.swf') via a SWFLoader and I need to listen for UncaughtErrorEvent from the SubApplication. I'm not able to get my event listeners to be called when I throw an error from within the SubApp ('B.swf').
After reading the asDoc for UncaughtErrorEvent and UncaughtErrorEvents It states that the UncaughtErrorEvent should go through the normal capture, target, and bubble phases through the loaderInfo hierarchy. This doesn't seem to be the case or I'm not understanding the documentation/usage.
I have added an event listener to A.swf's loaderInfo (The 'outter' main app) and also to B.swf's loaderInfo (though the Docs say not to do it here it is part of the event sequence in the capture and bubble phase...) as well as the SWFLoader internal FlexLoader.uncaughtErrorEvent (per Docs) like so:
SWFLoader's internal FlexLoader uncaughtErrorEvents
swfLoader.content.loaderInfo.loader.uncaughtErrorEvents.addEventListener(UncaughtErrorEvent.UNCAUGHT_ERROR, uncaughtErrorFunction );
and the loaded SWF's loaderInfo:
swfLoader.content.loaderInfo.uncaughtErrorEvents.addEventListener(UncaughtErrorEvent.UNCAUGHT_ERROR, uncaughtErrorFunction );
When I throw an Error from the SubApplication (B.swf). Only the 'outter' main app's (A.swf) event listener gets called. Which you expect, at first, if it is in the capture phase, but it isn't in that eventPhase at all. When debugging the eventPhase is in the EventPhase.AT_TARGET phase while being handled by A.swf's LoaderInfo, howeever the ASDoc says the Target phase should be B.swf's LoaderInfo.
Is this a bug between Flash player and Flex where the event isn't flowing correctly as stated in the ASDoc for UncaughtErrorEvent?

Thanks for the reply Alex.
The Outer main swf and the SubApp swf are in different ApplicationDomains (sibilings to each other) so they should not be sharing the class that is throwing the error. I should note that these two Applications are purely based on MX components, this is important later on.
I was originally throwing the error from a Button click handler from B.swf:
<mx:Button label="Throw Error" click="callLater( throwUncaughtError )" />
I was wrapping the handler function in a callLater because without it the error is not caught at all and the default flash dialog console just appears with the error. The A.swf's loaderInfo.uncaughtErrorEvents handler was not even firing unless I wrapped it a callLater.
I realized that Flash Builder's default to link the 4.1 SDK library via Runtime shared libraries was what was causing the A.swf's loaderInfo.uncaughtErrorEvent to fire in the AT_TARGET phase when using callLater. This is because the UIComponent's callLater method queue structure is shared between the two SWFs and therefore inside a function executing off the method queue A.swf's loaderInfo IS the TARGET... explainable, but at first thought that isn't how I'd expect this to work.
I then decided to test this out by setting the SDK library to merge into the code for both A.swf and B.swf and removing the callLater. IT WORKS! B.swf's (the SubApp) loaderInfo.uncaughtErrorEvents handler fires and I prevent the default (flash error console from appearing) and can stopImmediatePropagation so A.swf's loaderInfo.uncaughtErrorEvents handler doesn't fire.
Perfect besides having to merge the SDK libraries into each swf independently.... size killer.
In summary, using the same exact code for A.swf and B.swf:
1. When the SDK libraries are RSL - no UncaughtErrorEvents, neither A.swf's or B.swf's, is called. Instead the default flash error console appears with no chance to handle the uncaught error.
2. When the SDK libraries are Merged into the code - both A.swf's and B.swf's uncaughtErrorEvents will be called, according to the asDoc documented sequence; B.swf's uncaughtErrorEvents in the AT_TARGET phase and A.swf's uncaughtErrorEvents in the BUBBLE phase.
Moreover, if I build a pure Spark implementation everything works even when referencing the SDK libraries as RSL.
Does this indicate a bug in the globalplayer (flash player code)'s logic for handling UncaughtErrorEvents listeners within the loaderInfo hierarchy when the Flex SDK is Shared code between the SWFs?
OR
Since it works in Spark, is it an issue with how the flex2.compiler.mxml.Compiler turns MX based mxml components into generated AS classes (it hooks up the inline event listeners of child UIComponentDescriptor using a generic object and the click function is specified as a STRING and has to use untyped bracket notation to lookup on the UICompoent when adding it as a listener:
new mx.core.UIComponentDescriptor({
              type: mx.controls.Button
              events: {
                click: "___B_Button1_click"
              propertiesFactory: function():Object { return {
                label: "Throw Error"
Where as Spark does this correctly and generates Factory functions for setting up child UIComponents when converting Spark component mxml to AS:
private function _B_Button1_c() : spark.components.Button
    var temp : spark.components.Button = new spark.components.Button();
    temp.label = "Throw Error";
   temp.addEventListener("click", ___B_Button1_click);
    if (!temp.document) temp.document = this;
    mx.binding.BindingManager.executeBindings(this, "temp", temp);
    return temp;
* @private
public function ___B_Button1_click(event:flash.events.MouseEvent):void
    throwUncaughtError()
Sadly, moving to pure Spark would be a big hit is my project's schedule and at this point and likely isn't feasible. I have examples (with view source) built in MX for both the RSL and MERGE cases, I just don't know how to attach them here.
Sorry for the long comments and thanks again!

Sevice Contract - Listener for Events Queue Issue

Hi,
The Listener for Events Queue in our Production environment ran very long, It took about 3+ hrs to complete the program. Is there any thing specific that we can check as part of RCA.
Further there were 'library cache lock' found ... how this can impact the performance and how library cache lock works.

Hi Team,
i used the following code for recognizing the key events.
String javaScriptKeyListener =
" function keyListener() "
+" { "
+" alert(window.event.keyCode) ; } ";
OAWebBean body = pageContext.getRootWebBean();
if (body instanceof OABodyBean)
((OABodyBean)body).setOnLoad("onKeyPress = javascript:keyListener()");
but it is not working as expected..
Any suggestions ??

I need to get sound events from sounds embedded in a MovieClip

I'm working on a SoundManager class for a game development
platform. Unfortunately, I can't leverage the Sound class because
the requirements are that the sounds for an application would be
embedded in individual MovieClip objects and set to stream as the
clip plays.
The idea is that this would allow third-party developers to
make simple edits to the sounds by using the envelope controls for
the embedded sounds. I can manually fire an event when the sound
finishes by calling a custom method in the last frame of the movie
clip, however, this is not completely accurate and it makes it
impossible to seamlessly loop sounds.
Now, the Flash player must be aware that the sound has
finished playing. I presume that sounds embedded in the IDE are
handled by the Sound class in some way. Is there any way at all
that I can expose an event when the embedded sound finishes
playing?
I'd really prefer to use another approach, and just attach
sound files from a Library or from external files, but I don't have
a choice in this particular case. This is the way the application
has to work.
I will probably have to give up on the precision I want in
order to complete this job on time, but I refuse to believe that
what I'm trying to do is impossible. I would appreciate any help
anyone can give me.

Listen for event in own class?

Hi
I dispatch events from models to classes listening. How do you set up an event and listener in the same class?
Eg for the former - a model "MyModel" to class - it's:
public static const MY_VAR:String = "myVar";
triggered by...
dispatchEvent(new Event(MY_VAR));
picked up in another class by...
modelVar.addEventListener(MyModel.MY_VAR, doSomething);
but what if the class that's dispatching also has the listener?
So if MyClass is dispatching the event, along the lines of...
addEventListener(MyClass.MY_VAR, doSomething);
Cheers for taking a look

Very often I'm waiting for a few key items before I can finally do something else. Setting simple flags or checking nulls can help with this.
Often I download multiple data structures (JSON/XML/etc) and I need all of them before I can parse them because the co-depend on each other. URLLoaders finish at different times so I just set a flag for what I need but check if all are complete before I continue each time one finishes.
e.g.
package
     public class IHateWaiting extends EventDispatcher
          public static const MY_VAR:String = "myVar";
          private var _xmlA:XML;
          private var _xmlB:XML;
          public function IHateWaiting()
               // load A
               var ulA:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
               ulA.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, _handleFinishedF);
               ulA.load(new URLRequest("http://www.example.com/a.xml"));
               // load B
               var ulB:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
               ulB.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, _handleFinishedF);
               ulB.load(new URLRequest("http://www.example.com/b.xml"));
               // listen to self
               addEventListener(IHateWaiting.MY_VAR, _handleAppEventF);
          private function _handleFinishedF(e:Event):void
               if (e.type == Event.COMPLETE)
                    var data:XML = XML(e.target.data);
                    // A or B? any way you can tell
                    if (data.A.length() > 0) _xmlA = data;
                    else if (data.B.length() > 0) _xmlB = data;
                    // event method (requires extra handler or a fake event)
                    if (_xmlA && _xmlB) dispatchEvent(new Event(IHateWaiting.MY_VAR));
                    // preferred direct reference, no handler needed
                    // if (_xmlA && _xmlB) _parseXML();
          private function _handleAppEventF(e:Event):void
               if (e.type == IHateWaiting.MY_VAR) _parseXML();
          private function _parseXML():void
                // parse XML
I recommend the reference version from post #2. It's cleaner because you don't need to double up on functions (handler->reference) like you see above with dispatching. The only purpose for _handleAppEventF() in this case is just to run _parseXML(), which is a useless duplicate function.
I've always kept my handlers free of model-esque logic, so you see me calling a different function from that handler, _parseXML(). This is just because I want my handlers to only handle events and then hand off the work elsewhere.
Instead of dispatching the event, I agree with moccamaximum, run the method directly. Even if it's 2 lines of code to do 1 thing, I think the clarity of it is much cleaner coding. So I would recommend nuking the self-listener in the constructor above. When I have all the data I'm looking for, I'd run the methods in the class directly and If the parent needs to know, I'd dispatch when they complete.
e.g.
          private function _handleFinishedF(e:Event):void
               if (e.type == Event.COMPLETE)
                    var data:XML = XML(e.target.data);
                    // A or B? any way you can tell
                    if (data.A.length() > 0) _xmlA = data;
                    else if (data.B.length() > 0) _xmlB = data;
                    if (_xmlA && _xmlB)
                         // parse first (synchronous)
                         _parseXML();
                         // xml ready, dispatch to parent
                         dispatchEvent(new Event(IHateWaiting.MY_VAR));

Listening to event from custom component

I have a main.mxml file, and 2 custom components: component1.mxml and component2.mxml
I want to dispatch an event from component1 and handle it in component 2.
I'm able to do this by handling the event first in the main.mxml then passing it on.
But is there a way not to involve main.mxml, and to directly listen to the event from component 1 and handle it in component 2?
I need to listen the event in actionscript, not mxml.

You can dig in to custom event handlers

Passing events from externally-loaded SWFs

Hi,
We have an externally-loaded swf that acts as a kind-of-a slide show. After a user selects a particular subject from a mxml-based "menu" application, they push "buttons" in the SWF to go through a presentation, then on the last frame of the swf, I'd like to unload the swf and replace it with another "mxml" application. How can this be done? I have not tried to pass/capture events "up" from an externally-loaded swf before.
Thanks,
Doug

Do you own those SWFs? If so, they should dispatch an event from a known
place like a SlideShowManager or something like that.
Other folks "cheat" and bubble events or dispatch off of the systemManager
and/or top-level application.

Mxml file listening for event.

Hi All,
   I'm having following code in my project, here Report.mxml file displays to enter user details like (firstname,lastname,city,state,zip etc). After entering user information there is submit button. When user selects this button it needs to submit this data into database and return REPORT_ID back to confirmation state.
   My problem is that submitting data into database and getting REPORT_ID is taking some time because of that it is not displaying REPORT_ID in Confirmation viewStack. Rather than getting REPORT_ID from RemoteObject, hardcoding(given in red color) this value in my controller then it is displaying REPORT_ID.
How to wait for event result for displaying confirmation viewStack. Can anyone please suggest me what changes I need to make so that confirmation page will be displayed only after getting REPORT_ID.

Can someone please tell me how to add event handler to show REPORT_ID before displaying confirmation page. Confirmation page should be displayed once data saved successfully and getting REPORT_ID back from server.
How to set variables for .mxml from action script(.as) file.

JTextfield listening for changes from other class

Hi,
Assuming I have a Jtextfield in one of the class1 extend Jframe,
how do I update the jtextfield so that it could up make accessible by other class and continuously updated to reflect the input for value rom another class2.
In other words very much similar to the observable model view concept
class 1 may be look like
private void initComponents() {
jTextField1 = new javax.swing.JTextField();
jButton1 = new javax.swing.JButton();
setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
jTextField1.setEditable(false);
class 2 may be look similar to the following
public void out_1(){
setStop1("N");
for (int i=1;i<100;i++){
class_1.getJTextField1().setText(String.valueOf(i)); // System.out.println(i);
setOuti(i);
setStop1("N");

HI,
I have attempted with the following coding , test 1 the source display generated using Netbeans GUI , t est2 the worker code ,and mybean the bean , so far nothing seems to work .
I have not try the threaded swing concept as I am not familar with the concurrency but i am not sure whether propertylistener will do the job or not
In summary , list of method employed are :
binding the jtextfield1 to a bean,
jtextfield add document listener ,
Coding objective
1. Test 1 defined jtexfield1 and jbutton
2 Jbutton added actionlistener , where upon click,
Execute Test 2 which will assign a series of integer to the bean , own setters & getters, Output is achieved via Test 1 jtextfield1 supposingly to display all the running number from 1 to 99 continuously until the test2 out_1 method finished the execution
Anyone could provide the assistance .
Thank

Listen for events in another Gui class

Most of the GUIs I have written to date have consisted of either a single class or multiple self-contained classes - mainly extensions of JPanel with JButtons etc to perform certain tasks.
Now I want to be able to click a JButton in one class which will invoke a method in another.
The code is too lengthy to post here but this is the general layout:
JFrame Simulation_GUI contains a JPanel (panelMain) which is set as the content pane
panelMain contains two GUI classes which extend JPanel;
buttonPane > contains a number of JButtons, including the one I want to click
loadingPane > contains the method (which takes a Hastable as an argument) I want to run
All three panels are declared in the main class which extends JFrame, so I know that from there I can simply call;
loadingPanel.runLoads(htData); but how do I do this from the JButton on the buttonPane.
Any assistance greatly appreciated as I have little enough hair at the moment and can't afford to tear much more out.
Thanks in advance

Class GUI1 {
//Display all the buttons.
public void init() {
Button.addActionListener(new
ener(new SomeClass(this));
Class SomeClass implements ActionListener {
GUI1 gui = null;
SomeClass(GUI1 gui) {
this.gui = gui;
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//Do all your process here
gui.setTable(table); //table would be ur
ould be ur hashtable
}Cheers
-PThis didn't fully answer my question but did two things:
1. Told me that it is at least possible and it is just me having a senior moment,
2. Sent me on the right road to finding a solution
With additional help from the following post I have sorted my problem. Basically I had to centrallise the event handling into a different class. This was instantiated by the main GUI class and passed to the other GUI components as an argument.

Simple when you know how...!

Error #1009 in as3 code to install an Air application from an embedded swf.

Hi, I am getting error #1009 in my code when i try to install the application. I am new to action script and below is the code for my installer.
var airSWF:Object; // This is the reference to the main class of air.swf
var airSWFLoader:Loader = new Loader(); // Used to load the SWF
var loaderContext:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
                                // Used to set the application domain
var paramObjAppid:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters.appid;
//var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
loaderContext.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
airSWFLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, onInit);
airSWFLoader.load(new URLRequest("http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/browserapi/air.swf"),
                    loaderContext);
function onInit(e:Event):void
    airSWF = e.target.content;
var url = '';
var qty = '';
var appID = '';
var pubID = "";
var runtimeVersion = "3";
var tf:TextField = new TextField();       // create a TextField names tf for debugging
tf.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
//tf.size = 4;
tf.wordWrap = true;
tf.border = true;
addChild(tf);
try
    var keyStr:String;
    var valueStr:String;
    var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;   //set the paramObj variable to the parameters property of the LoaderInfo object
    for (keyStr in paramObj)
        valueStr = String(paramObj[keyStr]);
        if ( keyStr == 'qty' ) {
            qty = Number(valueStr);
        if ( keyStr == 'url' ) {
            url = escape(valueStr);
        if ( keyStr == 'appid') {
            appID = valueStr;
catch (error:Error)
var arguments:Array = [qty];
launchBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler_2);
function fl_MouseClickHandler_2(event:MouseEvent):void
    airSWF.getApplicationVersion(appID, pubID, versionDetectCallback);
function versionDetectCallback(version:String):void
    if (version == null)
        trace("Not installed.");
        tf.appendText('Not Installed');
        try {
               airSWF.installApplication(url, runtimeVersion, arguments);
            catch (error:Error){
                tf.appendText(error.toString());
    else
        trace("Version", version, "installed.");
        tf.appendText("appID="+appID);
        try {
            airSWF.launchApplication(appID, pubID );
        catch(error:Error) {
            tf.appendText(error.toString());

I managed to figure out what was causing the issue, I had a particular png image in my projects assets folder that seemed to be the culprit. Once I removed it the app installs just fine? Really weird?

Registry for event from cid-implementating component failed

hi,
I have a problem with the following scenario:
- I have a component Main, component interface definitions (cid´s) L and MENU
- component M1 and L1 implement the cid
now my problem:
Main embedds the interface view of cid L (in my case the component L1 at runtime) and L1 embedds the interface view of cid Menu (M1 at runtime). both embedding of course in a view container.
In M1 I got a tree ui-element and when a leaf in the tree is clicked a event in M1 is fired. This event is defined in the cid Menu and Main has registered for it with an eventhandler method.
when I start my application the event is fired in M1 but Main-component didn´t execute its eventhandler method for this event. what could be the reason?
has anyone an idea?

no messias outhere? :-D

ICal no longer listening for event notifications in 10.5.4

Up until 10.5.4, iCal would automatically add todo's and calendar events to its display when an event was created from an external app using the CalendarStore framework...
Not anymore... The events are created, but you need to click on a different view to get iCal to realize something has been added to the calendar
