Hi sinious,
How could I clean up connection when browser is aborted or lost?
below you can find the code snippet to check for air application and connection
airSWFLoader = new Loader();
                              loaderContext = new LoaderContext();
                              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; 
                              switch(airSWF.getStatus().toString())
                                        case "available" : AirLoaderStatus = 1;
                                        break;
                                        case "unavailable" : AirLoaderStatus = 2;
                                        break;
                                        case "installed" : AirLoaderStatus = 3;
                                        break;
private function getAppStatus():void
                              clearInterval(intervalIdentifier);
                              if(AirLoaderStatus == 0){intervalIdentifier = setInterval(getAppStatus,1000);return;}
                              m_launchInstallBtn.visible = true;
                              var statusInfo:String = airSWF.getStatus();
                              airSWF.getApplicationVersion(m_installerFileName, m_pubID, versionDetectCallback);
function versionDetectCallback(version:String):void
                              if (version == null)
                                        trace("Not Installed");
                                        // Take appropriate actions. For instance, present the user with
                                        // an option to install the application.
                              else
                                        m_isPluginsInstalled = true;
                                        // Take appropriate actions. For instance, enable the
                                        // user interface to launch the application.
private function onlickMouse(event:MouseEvent):void
                              m_text.text += "\nm_isPluginsInstalled:"+m_isPluginsInstalled+":::AirLoaderStatus:"+AirLoaderStatus;
                              trace("\nm_isPluginsInstalled:"+m_isPluginsInstalled+":::AirLoaderStatus:" +AirLoaderStatus);
                              switch(event.currentTarget)
                                        case m_launchInstallBtn:
                                                     if(AirLoaderStatus == 1)
       installAirsetup();
                                                  else
                                                            if(!m_isPluginsInstalled)
                                                                      airSWF.installApplication(m_url, m_runtimeVersion, m_argsToPass);
                                                                      airSWF.launchApplication(m_installerFileName, m_pubID, m_argsToPass);
                                                            else
                                                                      airSWF.launchApplication(m_installerFileName, m_pubID, m_argsToPass);
                                        break;
in the above code snippet I pass localConnection for send and recieve as an argument in m_argsToPass.
the connection names strarts with "_".
In the air application I I split the event arguments like given below
argsArray = event.arguments.toString().split(",");
and then try to establish connection.
Please suggest, how could I clean the connection on lost/ abort of browser, since then swf object embeded in browser also get lost.
