Any event dispatched when a pdf content is completely loaded?

I have a mx:HTML and the location points to a large remote pdf file. Is there anyway I know when the pdf file is loaded completely? I tried "complete" event but it was dispatched way before pdf file is loaded.

Hi,
I have the same problem with some specific PDF files. For more than 90% it hangs when opening the file, but sometimes it works (with the same file).
The workflows where it sometimes worked:
a) Loading the PDF, the reader is started the first time and displays license dialog.
b) The reader was already runing and file is loaded with Drag&Drop or File/Open in the Reader
But most times it does not load.
I could not find out which file is missing or trying to be opened. So I tried with the CP949.TXT.
I found no CP949.TXT in Reader 8 installation, so I took it from the link, pasted into notepad and stored in the respective directory
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Resource\TypeSupport\Unicode\Mappings\win\
Now it seems to work fine, opening PDFs with double click from exporer.
But why did Adobe Reader 8 not have the TypeSupport directory at all?
Even when having found a fix (hack?), I think I did not understand the cause of this problem.
Regards,
TheLastReader

  • Why does URLStream complete event get dispatched when the file is not finished loading?

    I'm writing an AIR kiosk app that every night connects to a WordPress server, gets a JSON file with paths to all the content, and then downloads that content and saves it to the kiosk hard drive. 
    There's several hundred files (jpg, png, f4v, xml) and most of them download/save with no problems.  However, there are two f4v files that never get downloaded completely.  The complete event does get dispatched, but if I compare the bytesTotal (from the progress event) vs bytesAvailable (from the complete event) they don't match up; bytesTotal is larger.  The bytesTotal (from the progress event) matches the bytes on the server. 
    The bytesLoaded in the progress event never increases to the point that it matches the bytesTotal so I can't rely on the progress event either.  This seems to happen on the same two videos every time. The videos are not very large, one is 13MB and the other is 46MB.  I have larger videos that download without any problems.  
    [edit] After rebooting the compter, the two videos that were failing now download correctly, and now it's a 300kb png file that is not downloading completely.  I'm only getting 312889 of 314349 bytes.
    If I paste the url into Firefox it downloads correctly, so it appears to be a problem with Flash/AIR.
    [edit] I just wrote a quick C# app to download the file and it works as expected, so it's definitely a problem with Flash/AIR. 
    Here's the code I'm using:
    package  {
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.events.Event;
        import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
        import flash.net.URLRequest;
        import flash.net.URLStream;
        [SWF(backgroundColor="#000000", frameRate="24", width="640", height="480")]
        public class Test extends Sprite {
            private var fileSize:Number;
            private var stream : URLStream;
            private var url:String = "http://192.168.150.219/wordpress2/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/John-Butler-clip1.f4v";
            public function Test() {
                if (stage)
                    init();
                else
                    this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
            private function init(e:Event=null):void {
                this.removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
                stream = new URLStream();
                stream.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onLoadProgress);
                stream.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
                stream.load(new URLRequest(url));
            private function onLoadProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void {
                fileSize = event.bytesTotal;
                var percent:Number = event.bytesLoaded / event.bytesTotal * 100;
                trace(percent + "%");
            private function onLoadComplete(event:Event):void {
                trace("loaded", stream.bytesAvailable, "of", fileSize);
                // outputs "loaded 13182905 of 13184365"
                // so why is it "complete" when it isn't finished downloading?

    Thanks for your quick reply !
    I am relatively new to programming so please bear with me on this as I still haven't managed to grasp some of those things that "make perfect sense". If I am setting mouseEnabled to false doesn't that mean that the object no longer gets MouseEvents ?
    If I have understood you correctly then once the mouseEnabled is set to false the btn object is removed from the objects recognizable by the mouse - hence dispatching a mouseout event (and I am guessing here) from the mouse?
    I still don't get it though, if the listeners are set to the object and the object is no longer accessible to the mouse why is the event still being dispatched ?
    I get it that the making of the object unavailable to the mouse causes the "removing" (deactivating) of the object from under the mouse,
      step 1. deactivate object, and  step 2. (as a result of step 1) register the removal of the object.
    but why is the mouse still listening after step 1?
    Even if the action is that of "out" (as in the object is no longer under the mouse) it still is an action isn't it ? so haven't we turned off the listening for actions ?
    I promise I am not trying to drive you crazy here, this is just one of those things that I really want to get to the root of !
    Thanks,

  • Do any events fire when the Flash Player exits?

    Hey all.
    I use a LocalConnection object to prevent being able to run our SWF multiple times on the same computer.
    The problem is that this connection can remain in place even when the SWF which called it closes. 
    I have:
    1) An External Interface call to dispose() all HTML pages call dispose() on pageunload which closes the connection.... But this is unreliable because if the browser crashes, you are locked out of the SWF
    2) I tried some crazy try/catch.  If SWF A exists and SWF B tries to be initialised.... SWFB cannot connect so it sends a function to SWFA to dispose(). This should free the connection for SWFB to connect to?  But this does not work well either because sometimes a localconnection can be in use but calling "dipose()" throws an error, often because the LocalConnection swf which should be available is already gone.
    What this all comes down to, is that I need a way to detect when the player closes, so i can close the localconnection.
    stage.addEventListener(Event.EXIT, onExit);
    function onExit(e:Event): void
             if (localconnection)
                    localconnection.close();
    Does anything like this exist?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for taking the time to answer kglad!
    I should have been clearer it is a Web App, so your answer remains valid.
    I have not completely followed you on your advice.. When you say "So it only prevents another swf from running if something is returned from a currently running swf".
    Could you expand on that? I am desperate to fix the issue, but it just seems localconnection is not the best method for "single swf execution". I just have not found any other methods.
    Thanks.

  • Any event triggered when deletion happens

    Hi guys,
    I wonder is there any way how to handle following scenario:
    We have custom BO which has association to Activity BO.
    User deletes Activity's instance and here I want that my custom BO's instance would be deleted together with this activity, as we have 1:1 relationship between Activity BO and mine custom BO.
    As I know, than none of events on activity could be triggered when row from Activity's OWL is removed, right? As possible work around I see MDR usage on my custom BO, but it won't be real time check if my custom BO instance still has association to activity. So another thought what I had, but I couldn't find the way how to get it working, is there any chance to trigger on my custom BOs OWL any actions (mass enabled action which checks if my instances has set association to activity)?
    Thanks,
    Uldis

    In case of an internal communication used, you would not receive a delete event.
    The backend would delete your custom object.
    Explained simple, internal communication creates, updates and deletes instances of objects (the destination object) based on modifications of a source object asynchronously in the background (you can define additional conditions when to create, update or delete).
    So you might use it to create and delete instances of your custom object.
    The approach using internal communication is just a suggestion and might not be what you need.

  • Any event triggered when SM35 session completed?

    Hi Guys.
    I wanted to know if there is an event that is triggered after a batch input session has been processed? We want to do something as soon as the batch input sessions are completed - may be something like sending mails to users etc.
    I know we can make a separate program that can check system tables to see the status of the session. But I remember reading somewhere sometime that a batch input session's completion triggers an event.
    Please advice.
    Thanks in adv.

  • Refresh event problem, when using anything other than on-load

    I am attempting to create a series of sequential xml loads, without any user interaction.
    I.E. xml1 contains the location of xml2, and xml2 contains the location of xml3, so the next must wait until the prior xml has been loaded.
    It is impractical to use dropdown lists or refresh buttons to update these - (they should all happen behind the scenes as they are just loading selections that change depending on the user privileges).
    While my desired refresh-event is the when-value-becomes, I have tested when-value-changes, and found the same problem.
    When I set these to automatically chain through (xml1 is set to refresh-on-load, xml2 is set to load by a trigger cell that equals "load" if there are values loaded from xml1, and so on) - the conditional refresh events do not fire.
    When I use a manual refresh button, they load without a problem, and when I use a dropdown list to test the on-change or value-equals logic, this loads correctly too. So the problem is specifically during the intial load-up point, and is reproducable in any new xcelsius project I create.
    To state the problem precisely, during the initial loading phase of xcelsius, the logic behind when-value-changes and when-value-equals load events does not seem to execute - however after the initial load, they fire correctly based off user input.
    Is there any workaround or solution? If any clarification is needed, let me know where.

    May not be your exact issue, but something similar -
    Only a problem w/SP3 - I used dynamic visibility to hide two connection refresh buttons that were loading data after components finished. They stopped working until I turned the dynamic visibility off and just hid them behind other layers. Confirmed by revealing them after load and the triggers ran appropriately. May not be the issue (since you didn't mention visibility), but worth a try.

  • MouseMove event dispatching

    I noticed a confusing behavior
    regarding event dispatching when a control holds a
    mouse event.
    Usually, in a standard GUI framework, when you resize a
    spliter, the event is not dispatched to other control.
    it's not the case with a flex spliter. The event is thrown to
    all controls the mouse moves over during the drag of the spliter.
    how can we stop that?
    thanks

    After some internal discussion, I hear that this is not a bug
    after all. Here is the recommendation (from our dev team) for you
    to get all of your mouse events to one target -
    1- add a mousedown handler to their component.
    2. in the mousedown handler, add a mousemove and mouseup
    handler to the systemManager. These handlers should be registered
    for capture.
    3. in those handlers, do what you need to do, then stop
    propogation of the event (see the methods on the event class).
    4. in the mouseup handler, remove the mousemove and mouseup
    handlers. make sure you remove them from the system manager, and
    also set the capture flag in the remove.
    HTH,

  • Event dispatching exception thrown when invoking a webpage in a JEditorPane

    I have a help option in one of the menus of my tool. When this help option is chosen from the menu, the tool invokes a frame which is of JEditorPane type and displays an HTML doc in it. Here is the stack trace I am getting.
    My problem is I get this error only on Unix platforms (Solaris) and despite the exception being thrown the application works alright. Although the help frame has serious performance issues, it takes a while for this frame to load the html doc in it and display it (the html file is about 8 pages long).
    Please let me know how to get rid of this exception. Thanks in advance. Here is the stack trace of the exception I am getting:

  • Firefox is stumbling when pages with PDF content come up. how can i get my old version3.5.6 back?

    Question
    firefox is stumbling when pages with PDF content come up. how can i get my old version3.5.6 back?

    Thanks for your response Cor el, I'll try that the next time it happens, it's completely random. One moment it functions normally then suddenly it changes its mind.
    Restarting my pc usually brings it back to normal until next time.
    One thing I've noticed, but not 100% sure there's a connection here.....I edit my websites online and log into cpanel which opens new pages in separate tabs, as it should do. It seems that this problem occurs when I'm logged into cpanel...if i'm logged in then open a new tab for regular browsing of other sites then all links on those sites also open in new tabs.
    Ican't say for sure if it's always only happened when logged into cpanel, but certainly on the last 3 occasions.
    At the moment it's behaving normally so much I can do to check your suggestions, but will try them the next time it occurs.
    One other thing I forgot to mention too....since i've had the new firefox, I've noticed that when I log into yahoo and post comments, I often find myself having to log on for each new post. Everything was fine with old firefox and there have been no other changes to my pc .

    Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
    I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
    If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
    Cheers again..

  • When logging into iCloud in Safari, Calendar doesn't display any events. They are displayed on the iPad, iPhone on even the iCal. What is wrong ?

    When logging into iCloud in Safari, Calendar doesn't display any events. They are displayed on the iPad, iPhone on even the iCal. What is wrong ?

    :S,
    Sorry, missed that fact. My memory is good, but short.
    Try moving the "Calendar Cache" file to your Desktop. Quit iCal, and find the "Calendar Cache" file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars. Move that file to your Desktop. After that, (I remember that I recommended this before), as long as you are moving files to the Desktop, repeat the plist removal procedure once again, log out/in or restart.
    You should also consider removing the "To Do's" from Mail before restarting iCal. When you open iCal turn off "Show Birthdays calendar" in iCal>Preferences...>General.
    Are you syncing any data? If so, what method(s) are you using?
    ;~)

  • Is there any event that triggers when you switch between components?

    is there any event that triggers when you switch between components?
    like for example... when i switch between components, i need a function to fire everytime i switch...
    ive tried show, hide, and initialize... and none of them work...
    any ideas or help is greately appretiated!!

    Depends on what you are trying to do,
    you have mouseover and mouseout and mouseclick events which you can use on the component and write code to deal with what you want to happen when you change focus. You have keypress event which would allow you to monitor tabbing between components, remember that in most events the currentTarget and target values will give you the information you need to handle component interaction.
    so
    [Bindable] private var CurrentObject: Object; <-------  use this as a pointer to what ever object you are currently focused on or just to indicate things have changed
    addeventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,myCompponentSwap);
    protected function myComponentSwap(e:event): void
        if (CurrentObject !=e.currentTarget && CurrentObject != null)
             do what you want becuase a component switch just happened
        CurrentObject = e.currentTarget;
    Hope this gets you started.
