Link File Using Code in Flash Builder

Is there any way to link to a file on a local drive rather than a url by using action script in Flash builder? For example is there a type of "file request" instead of "url request" command I can use?
Thanks,
SN

Hello Susan;
I don't know if this helps, but I was having code hint issues also, here is the link to the discussion.

Using flex4.1, Flash Builder giving error "flash.filesystem::StorageVolume could not be found."

Hi there,
          I'm trying to copy some files to Storage Card on a AIR application. Is this possible with the latest version of the AIR SDK (2.0)?
          I am developing in Flash Builder. I have downloaded the lastest flex sdk(4.1) and used it.
          Flash Builder then recognises the StorageVolume and StorageVolumeInfo classes. However when I then run the app the debugger throws an error on the following line:
LINE:
var volumes:Vector.<StorageVolume> = StorageVolumeInfo.storageVolumeInfo.getStorageVolumes();
Note: I have imported both classes as well.

I'v read the article
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2984004#2984004,
and checked my application.xml, The content of the first two lines is:

Using papervision in flash builder and getting TypeError: Error #1009: when using object.pitch(5)

When i use papervision in flash builder and i am doing a test, when i render a sphere using papervision with the following code it renders me the sphere.
When i add a line sphere.pitch(2); ||
sphere.yaw(2);
sphere.roll(2);
i get the following error,
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at PvTest/onRenderTick()[D:\Android 3D\PvTest\src\PvTest.as:39]
Can anyone help me figure out the error
For additional Info, these are the imports i am doing:
import org.papervision3d.objects.primitives.Sphere;
import org.papervision3d.view.BasicView;

I followed the steps and read some of your comments on the same top topic in another thread. When I put it on the first frame it was okay but the next button on that page had the same problem. So what I am guessing is that I have to either create a document class or put the actions where the buttons are. Am I understanding that correctly? In the other thread in which you helped someone else; there was so comments about document class. I found a tutorial on it and the way I understand it is that it you can put you actions in an external document. But you have to include in the event listener the frame in which you want that action to happen.
Thaks for your help. And patience.

File System issues in Flash Builder 4.7

We recently upgraded from Flash Builder 4.0 (and in one case, Flash Builder 4.5) to Flash Builder 4.7. We are using Team Foundation Server for collaboration. We've been having a number of issues, mostly with our file system:
After downloading a library from TFS, this library will sometimes disappear after downloading another library from TFS.
Also, after removing an association to a library, that library may disappear.
When adding additional libraries to source paths, we often find that the library is not acknowledged (errors when trying to use a member of that package)
After fixing some compiler errors reported in the source code, the Problems window does not always reflect this.
The compiler error icons in the left column do not always match the line of code it is next to.
Any experience or resolutions for these issues would be much appreciated.

Hi Blake,
In another page (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1056583), Adobe states that it will be possible to download 4.6 in alternative to 4.7, to still have the Design View. However, I have not seen such possibility yet.
I will not say that "real programmers don't use design mode". They do, if it works fine.
However, the Design View was not very useful for mobile projects, if you wanted to create an interface which, at run time, adapts to different screen estates.
It was very good to draw an initial mock-up, but only the simulator (and the device) can say how the app really looks like (if you want to know more, please have a look here: http://aliencoding.com/2013/02/22/adobe-flash-builder-4-7-has-no-design-view-is-it-blasphe my-no-but-the-software-contains-some-other-blasphemous-aspects/).
If you develop for desktop, then I agree the Design View lack is a real drag. I think Adobe should at least lower the price of the program, now that it's been scaled down for (I think) copyright issues (the Design mode relies on Flash professional components that was not donated to Apache).
I love this platform because it really saved my butt in cases of real fast devployment, BUT NOW it lacks support for Windows 8 that PhoneGap has...
Can we say... it is a legacy framework by now?

Is there a limit to the amount of SWCS I can use in my Flash Builder app?

I have 3 swc folders in my flash builder project that includes about 40 swcs total. Each swc is a simple flash animation with a size of about 500 kb each. When I include and complile about 20 of them in my project, things work fine.
When I try to include all my swcs, the app compiles, but when i make changes in my code and save those changes, each time the compile becomes slower and eventually my flash builder freezes at about 52%, gives me a "java heap error" message, and then crashes. After restarting FB, when I take out most of the swcs from the build, FB acts normal again. Attached is a screen shot of my error.
Is there a limit in size or amount of swcs that I can use in my FB application?

There are no limits. But there is a known memory leak (which is being fixed for a later release).
Would it be possible to attach a sample SWC so that we can confirm whether this is a known leak or not? I'll take care of filing this in bugs.adobe.com.
Meanwhile, in your Flash Builder installation directory, you can edit FlashBuilder.ini to bump up max heap size by editing:
-Xmx512m
to
-Xmx800m

In short, I want to know how is an app interface created(wt software) and how is it connected with its code using flash builder.Any help would be greatly appreciated, and tutorials would be swell
Thanks!

Using TransformGestureEvents in Flash Builder

Hi all,
I am trying to use the TransformGestureEvents to allow interaction inside of a FLARE based application. I want to create a data visualisation app with touch interaction.
I have Flash Player 10.1, which is needed for these classes, as i have already used them in a Flash CS5 test project, and i worked great! But when i try to import the transform gesture events, an error appears saying:
1172: Defination flash.events:TransformGestureEvents could not be found.
Has anyone got any idea how i can use TransformGestureEvents inside of Flash Builder?
Any advice, is deeply appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply!
I am using flex 4.0 SDK and flash player 10.1.
Since then i have tried to use the adobe air 2.5 SDK because I read somewhere that it included Touch events. I have tried to overlay the AIR SDK into my Flex 4.0 SDK folder and it doesn't seem to have worked. I am using a mac and the documentation out there to do this , isn't exactly straight forward and ive followed the instructions, but no success. Im really surprised that Adobe have not released a flex SDk with Touch events include, i mean it seem dumb not too!?!?
Maybe if i gave you more of an insight into what i want to achieve, this could help.
I want to use flash builder to create a search for a series of media API's (e.g Spotify/Last.FM or YouTube) the user would search for what they want and the results would be displayed in a Radial Tree Layout using the FLARE library to construct the visualisaton and I wanted to use Gestures to enable the user to navigate around the results, (ZOOMING, SELECTING, etc). I have thought about using OpenFrameworks to do this, but I would prefer to use FLASH.
I am creating this project for my Final Degree!
Any advice on this, would be great.

Using SSL in flash builder 4 data service with PHP

I am converting a program I wrote with Flex 3 into Flash builder 4, and I wanted to try to use the built-in data services instead of using the httpservice as I was doing before. The one thing I cannot figure out is how to make it use a secure connection (https) when connecting to that data service. I have looked everywhere I can think of and cannot find where I can set this. Anyone know where and how to set this? The server I am connecting to only allows secure connections, so doing it any other way is not an option.
Thanks.

Having the same problem with a Java REST service using HTTPS requests, Adobe Air appears to ask to verify the certificate with every single request on windows ??? and on mac after accepting the certificate we do not get a result?

Hi
Currently i haven't found any documentation describing how to compile and use this tlfx.
I went through the change log to see what was added, and it looked quite good.
I have tried to compile it, but my experience with fb4 is very limited. I have only worked with it for a couple of months.
I would like a description of how to compile and use this tlfx liblrary in a flex application, so that i can have table supprt as well as support for bullets and numbering.

Possible to create a static library (.a) file for Xcode with Flash Builder?

Is it possible to write code in AIR that can be compiled to static library (.a) to be used in an iPad app?

Hey paulhart83,
My guess is therabbitwindfall's answer was correct but where you able to find a solution to your question? If so, please do share. I need to embed my app within another app and the only way is through a static library. I'd rather not have to re-develop my app in Xcode in order to generate the .a file.
Thanks.

How to import a picture into a Psd file using codes?

I'm trying to import a picture into a psd file as a new layer, but i can't find the method of photoshop object in visual studio 2010 object browser. Is it possible to do this job using vb.net codes?
Any suggestion will be gratuated!

I beleive Michael L Hale stated that he used the ScriptListener to generate code for PhotoShop "menu File>Place". Many things can not be done through in Photoshop Scripting through the Adobe's normal scripting methods Adobe provided for scripting. However Adobe also supplied the ScriptListener.8li plugin which when installed is a bit like the actions palette's action recorded without controls. Everthing that can be recorded in Photoshop is written to two files on your desktop in script code one in Javascript the other VBS. The Script code use an Action Manager Method so thing not posible with normal scripting methods can be use in scripts. The only way to start and stop recording these two script files it to install ScriptListener.8li before you start Photoshop and to uninstall it after you exit Photoshop. Awarkward but better then nothing there is no logic just step, step, step like actions and the code is not all that readable. However you can take that code and modify it to use vars to turn steps into javascript functions and whatever VBS uses.
For example Place
REM =======================================================
DIM objApp
SET objApp = CreateObject("Photoshop.Application")
REM Use dialog mode 3 for show no dialogs
DIM dialogMode
dialogMode = 3
DIM idPlc
idPlc = objApp.CharIDToTypeID( "Plc " )
    DIM desc3
    SET desc3 = CreateObject( "Photoshop.ActionDescriptor" )
    DIM idnull
    idnull = objApp.CharIDToTypeID( "null" )
    Call desc3.PutPath( idnull, "D:\\Temp\\Portrait\\dsc6234.psd" )
    DIM idFTcs
    idFTcs = objApp.CharIDToTypeID( "FTcs" )
    DIM idQCSt
    idQCSt = objApp.CharIDToTypeID( "QCSt" )
    DIM idQcsa
    idQcsa = objApp.CharIDToTypeID( "Qcsa" )
    Call desc3.PutEnumerated( idFTcs, idQCSt, idQcsa )
    DIM idOfst
    idOfst = objApp.CharIDToTypeID( "Ofst" )

Using Haxe with Flash Builder

Has anyone tried this?

You probably created a Flex project - the ActionScript Compiler section will only be there for ActionScript projects. If you want to enable Telemetry for a Flex project, or for an existing swf (without recompiling), see here:
