Access swf metadata

Compilation flags allow the embedding of metadata into the
swf file. metadata.descritpion and metadata.date are examples. How
can the swf programatically extract and examine this data?

As I was hitting enter to log my question I realized I should
have specified what I was trying to do. There may be a much better
way.
I would like to get to the date of the swf compilation or
other command line args to provide a visual indication of the
version of that swf when it is run, and programmatic indication of
version so that support decisions may be made at runtime. I do not
want to have to change static text every time I compile, but would
rather generate a version based on compilation time.
That said, how may this be accomplished?

Accessing swf metadata rdf:Description etc

Hi Guys, anyone found a way for a swf to access it's own xmp and rdf metadata.
Essentially what i'm after is a way to embed a variable in a swf without having to decompile and recompile it, setting one of the preused metadata tags to that and then reading it would solve that problem.
Any help is much appreciated

Unfortunatley not, i'm trying to automate a dynamic content system, much like the old macromedia generator, where we have one swf file with one internal variable changed.

Access CDF MetaData from Region Template

How can I access the MetaData of a CDF from the Region Template?
I have read that I can use DOC_INFO, but this does not seem to work. I tried:

I tried:
executeService("DOC_INFO")
DOC_INFO.dDocAccount
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi Deepali,
All the parameter source are ASP Request Object collections which is used to get information from a visitor.
For accessing page metadata, you can select Server Variable.

[svn:fx-trunk] 7671: The SWF metadata tag has optional attributes widthPercent and heightPercent .

Revision: 7671

The SWF metadata tag has optional attributes widthPercent and heightPercent. The expected format is "[ws]double%[ws]". For example, [SWF (backgroundColor="#FFFFFF", widthPercent="92%", heightPercent="81%", frameRate="60" )]. Don't blindly strip off the last non-whitespace char and allow the % to be optional.

Can i access swf files with your product?

can i access swf files with dreamweaver?

You will need Flash as well as Dreamweaver.
Follow these instructions http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7ad0a .html

How access SWF Library items?

Is it possible to access SWF Library items from main FLA?
Ex:
I am loading swf on level1, i want to access level1 library
items from level0 file

You'll need to get the FLA for the file to see how the
linkage is set up. Other option, though not ideal, is to get ahold
of a SWF decompiler, and create a new FLA where you know the
linkage id's.

Access .swf in MovieClip

Hi,
I have to access different frames from swf file in flex.means
when mouseover on canvas it should load frame 5.I know through
movie clip i can goToPlay particular frame.But how can I access swf
through movieclip.
Thanks,
Megha

Store the swf file in the src/mimes/Components directory
Retrieve the URL of this file using
WDURLGenerator.getResourcePath(wdComponentAPI.getDeployableObjectPart(), YourCompView.FILE_NAME)
and store this URL in a context attribute
Bind the IWDIFrame 'source' property with the stored URL context attribute, and set the iFrame's 'lifeCycle' property to 'uielement' in order to prevent refresh of the content during server roundtrips
Upon clicking the button, you can show/hide the iFrame and thus enabling your swf file

Hi,
Are you facing the same problem when starting with a new subscriber database?
From the error message suggested that replication metadata may be corrupt. I suggest you drop and re-create the subscription.
Then click on synchronization status and run the snapshot agent. It hard to tell the cause unless we check Merge Agent error log.
Regarding the Unreadable Characters,
change system locale to Chinese if current system locale is English and test the issue. A computer restart is required to make the change effective.
Thanks.

[CS3 JS] How To Access Custom Metadata?

I have InCopy documents that contain custom XMP metadata in two namespaces, Dublin Core and PRISM, e.g.: ... <rdf:Description rdf:about=""> <dc:format xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">application/x-incopy</dc:format> <dc:title>Chickens and You</dc:title> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:about=""> <prism:publicationName xmlns:prism="http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/1.2/" >Poultry Daily</prism:publicationName> </rdf:Description> ... In my JavaScript, I can access the Dublin core values but cannot access the PRISM values and I'm not sure why not. For example, I have this: doc = app.activeDocument; metadata = doc.metadataPreferences; namespaces["dc"] = "http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"; namespaces["prism"] = "http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/1.2/"; $.writeln("dc:title=" + metadata.getProperty(namespaces["dc"], "title/*[1]")) // Returns expected result "Chickens and You" $.writeln("prism:publicationName=" + metadata.getProperty(namespaces["prism"], "publicationName/*[1]")) // Returns unexpected empty result, should be "Poultry Daily". If I do metadata.save() I see the PRISM metadata in the saved result: <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:prism="http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/1.2/"> <prism:publicationName>Poultry Daily</prism:publicationName> </rdf:Description> So I'm sort of at a loss but I suspect that I don't really understand what the path value should be--I haven't been able to find any clear documentation on what the path is addressing or how its actually interpreted. What am I missing or doing wrong? Thanks, Eliot

Missed that. It's been a long week.
The problem is this line (probably).
metadata.getProperty(namespaces["prism"], "publicationName/*[1]")
You apparently copied the syntax from dc:title in the previous line. dc:title is
an 'Lang Alt' kind of property which is, effectively, an array. Your
prism:publicationName is a simple value property. I suspect that the "[1]"
syntax (and possible the "/*" before it) are what's causing problems.
I don't recall seeing docs for this either.

Access Image Metadata

Hi!
I'm attempting to create a photo uploader as part of a school project, and I was wondering how I can access, and edit, the metadata for the images I'm uploading. I want to change the tags, description, etc. I tried Googling, but it didn't return anything I can use.
I also suspect it might not be possible to edit metadata in Flex. If so, is there another way I can do this?
By the way, I'm using Flash Builder 4.5 Premium, with Flex 4.5.1 SDK.
Cheers
Mark

I've not tried this but it looks promising

How to access Image Metadata with AS3?

An image, like a jpeg, has a bunch of metadata stored in it.
The "IPTC Core" metadata usually includes the photographers name,
address, title, description, etc.
Is there any way to access this information using AS3 so
that, say, captions for images in a flash gallery could be
generated automatically?

As far as I know this is not possible with AS3 directly, but
if you are interested you could check out the as3corelib at
http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/
They have some pretty nifty JPEG things going on there
(although I do not know if this includes metadata - but I hope
so).

Access BPEL metadata tables in Olite install of SOA Suite

Hi,
Iwanted to know if there is a way to acess bpel metadata tables in olite.
like for esb we use system/any user/pass and oraesb sid.
I am unable to do so by changing sid from oraesb to orabpel.
It gives access violation error.
Thanks in advance

if you check out the datasources.xml file in your AS-installation you will see that the username/password isn't the same for orabpel as for the oraesb schema. You need to use system/manager instead of system/any

Access FLV metadata from Spark VideoPlayer

Is there any way to access FLV metada in Spark VideoPlayer? There was metadataReceived event in past. But now there is no any event for metadata.
Thank you

I don't know PHP, but if PH can introspect the file and send
that data to Flash in an XML format, then yes, you can do what you
are asking. The key is PHP getting the data and then formatting it
so that Flash can consume it.
good luck!

Access custom metadata from another plugin

I was wondering if it would be possible to access the custom metadata from one plugin from another plugin.
I know you use the _PLUGIN object when you read or write the metadata with a plugin.Is there any way to pass the varible to another plugin, maybe stored in a xml or text file in the modules folder? I also see where you can use the "unique identifying string" or plugin.id. Is this id differant for every installation of Lightroom?

Allen, I'm pretty sure the answer is no - you can't access another plug-in's custom fields.
I'm sure I have read this limitation somewhere - even if I can't now see it stated explicitly in the documentation. If anything, the docs imply getPropertyForPlugin can do so by specifying the LrToolkitIdentifier value (which you may be able to pass as a preference). So this doesn't work:
getData = photo:getPropertyForPlugin("uk.co.beardsworth.missing", jbMissing )
It is an important point though that one plug-in should be able to access another's custom fields. Obviously one can think of many ordinary circumstances where it would be handy, but I'm more worried about the longer term DAM viability of custom metadata. Let's say I decided to release a plug-in based around custom fields and users entered metadata which had some value to them - whether that's just input time or business data (eg client or agency account number). Now move on to LR3 and the plug-in no longer works - I've disappeared, driven mad by SDK changes, or you're unwilling to pay my extortionate plug-in upgrade fee.
Now what happens to that valuable metadata? The data is still in the database but you can't read it because the original plug-in's unavailable, and Adobe's built-in "All" Plugin Metadata panel only shows data from enabled plug-ins. It's not in the XMP either. You're stuffed - unless you're resourceful enough to reverse engineer chunks of the plug-in. Assuming that I encrypted my plug-in's code, that means you're going to have to dig around the SQL to figure out my plug-in's ID and its field names. Only then can you create a plug-in to rescue your custom data. And you've got to hope to hell that my plug-in didn't encrypt or obscure the values you entered.
For me what this shows is
1) You're taking a big risk if you store valuable custom metadata - if you can't sort it out yourself, should you do it?
2) You should ensure any plug-in with custom metadata stores its field definitions in unencrypted files
3) The All Plug-in Metadata panel needs to show all plug-in metadata
4) The SDK should allow you to get custom metadata from other plug-ins
4) Custom fields should be mapped to XMP
Short answer - No.
