Modules in SWC files

We have a custom SWC, with its defaults.css. Customer uses our SWC in a module. When the module is loaded in a main application, the module loads, but css styles defined in our defaults.css do not. Only way to fix is to include our CSS in main application, but is there a better way to handle this?

Alex, thanks for looking into this. We are working with the customer to create a test case, but it does appear that it is working as designed. Since the last paramter to .load above points to the moduleFactory of the top level application, the style manager being used to lookup the styles also is the top level applications style manager. And since the stylesheet is not loaded in the top level application, we run into this error. Since we are not able to modify the top level apps code, we're going to try to runtime load the stylesheet into the top level app and see how that goes.
Appreciate your help.

Flash limitations, Invisible Compiler Errors, swc files...

This question is for expert users of Flash CS4/CS5 and actionscript.   Please do not comment or offer suggestions if you have no experience with these errors or their causes.
===================================================
Question:
=======
Publishing an extremely complex file can sometimes result in a blank swf being created, and no compiler errors being shown even though some may exist.   Are there any suggested methods for dealing with this?
=======
Details:
=======
Those who have written flash files with large actionscript components will be familiar with needing to set the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS evinronment variable in order to prevent the Flash compiler from crashing due to memory limits. The majority of the files in question require this as a bare minimum in order to be compiled at all.
The project in question involves several main "launcher" components, in addition to hundreds of "modules". The modules themselves are being developed in a distributed manner by several programmers. Each module can be executed as a standalone swf, for testing and production purposes. Each module has a companion swc file which holds its assets and exports them. All of the modules make use of a shared custom code library that sits on top of actionscript.
The launcher program also uses the shared library code, and runs the modules (never more than one at a time, and clearing previously loaded ones before loading a new one) inside of itself. The launcher contains a reference file(the class names typed in an include file, referencing all of the available exported assets from the swcs) that makes all the necessary assets available to the modules, such that any module can be run at any time.
===========
The Error:
===========
Seemingly random in occurence, every now and then a file will "compile blank". Essentially, the compile time is very short, the swf pops up as a blank white box, and there is absolutely nothing listed in the "Compiler Errors" tab, nor in the output tab. Sometimes closing flash and relaunching it will bring the Compiler Error messages back, though usually not. More often opening the file on another computer in a different copy of flash and compiling it again will show the errors.   The original computer will still not show anything, but the other computer can be used to fix the error, and then the file will start reporting errors again properly.
However, sometimes, the file will "compile blank" on all computers, and all copies of flash. Then the only resort to find the hidden errors and fix them, is to comment out the entire file, and slowly uncomment out sections one at a time. In this manner, the area where the hidden errors are occuring can be determined, and the error found manually.
Obviously this is an extremely frustrating situation, but one that can be "worked around".
However, there are two more serious incarnations of this which cannot be as easily side stepped.
1.) Sometimes certain computers/copies of flash will "compile blank" a file that doesnt actually have errors in it. The same file will compile and work perfectly on one machine, and not on another.
2.) The most severe of all...The two more complex components compile fine in cs4, but always "compile blank" on cs5, no matter what. The module files all compile much faster on cs5 and work great. However, the shared code library and the launcher program cannot be compiled in cs5, though they compile fine in cs4.   Both compile blank every single time on cs5, with no errors reported.
--Just as a side note here are the compile times on two different types of computers, for cs4 and cs5, for the three types of compiled files:
=====================
CS4 Compile time averages:
=====================
Dual Core - Pentium 4:
        Module File = 1-4 minutes
        Shared Code Library = 10+ minutes
        Launcher Program = Unusable
6 Core AMD w 16 GBs of RAM:
         Module File = less than 10 seconds
         Shared Code Library = approx. 1 minute
         Launcher Program = 15-25 minutes
=====================
CS5 Compile time averages:
=====================
Dual Core - Pentium 4:
        Module File = less than 20 seconds
        Shared Code Library = 2-4 minutes
        Launcher Program = Compiles blank
6 Core AMD w 16 GBs of RAM:
         Module File = less than 10 seconds
         Shared Code Library = less than 30 seconds
         Launcher Program = Compiles blank
========================================
Summary:
========================================
1.) Large and complex files in cs4 or cs5 can sometimes false compile, showing a blank swf, and no errors.
2.) Large interlinked projects containing many swcs that can compile on cs4 always compile blank on cs5
The issues involved "appear" to deal with interlinked swcs and swfs, memory, and compiler messages.
The best solution i can think of would be some sort of verbose mode setting, where the cs4/cs5 compilers can be set to trace all the actions they are taking, either to a log file, or to the screen. Rather than simply giving a summary of the results, a real-time display of what is occuring might lead to the actual bugs/issues.

For the future people who come searching this forum and find my thread.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405257.html
Above is a link to adobe's official version of admitting this situation exists(and its true for cs5 as well).
If you are reading this, and simply have a single large file that won't compile. Attempt their solutions suggested. Also, click the link in the comments by the user refering to a blog that helped him.
That will explain the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS memory issue (which you can find many explanations on google as well).
If however, you are working with a large number of separate swf's that load each other, and share assets and are getting the REAL problem, neither adobe's solutions, nor the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS will correct the problem for you. My best suggestion to you is, have one SWF launch the next one, and break your project into pieces. Whatever the parent SWF needed to have, can be either copied into all the children SWFs, or into several "brother" SWFs which share the loaded children SWFs, (and can actually be successfully compiled). Then as you move from brother to brother, they can be made to appear as if they were actually ONE file, loading the children, instead of several launching each other, and sharing the loading duties.
and as far as adobe is concerned, if i told you what i thought of you, i would get this post deleted...and myself banned.
Anyone considering doing Enterprise level projects in Flash, DONT. I wanted to use JAVA, but my company went with flash. I am stuck working around it constantly, and would have been better off coding foundation classes to mimic whatever functionality we needed from flash into java.
Maybe when actionscript 4 comes along, it will magically bring with it true object oriented programming, and Adobe will spend the time and money to make a real working compiler. Somehow i doubt it.

See Lorna...it's almost second nature to you now,
editing those js files! I TOLD you you could do it!
Mark, it's EERIE that you should say this to me today because this is exactly what I have been thinking! I can put a song on a page with one eye shut now, and I can zip around those files pretty well (except for the recent fiasco where I didn't even look at the right folder). I also notice that the level of my writing is sounding more technical and familiar with digital world jargon. I remember how you told me I could do it, and you were right. You all were right and I feel more knowledgeable and at a point where I suspect that I can take steps on my own. HTML is a strange land, but just being able to edit that .js file and FIND it by navigating for it in Text Edit has made me feel much more competent.
Before iWeb I didn't realize what Text Edit was for. I used it to take quick fast short notes. I never understood that concept of "opening something up in so and so application." The first time I clicked OPEN in Text Edit, and I saw all those danged files staring at me with beady eyes, I wanted to throw a white hanky and run for the hills. Not any more!

Adapter Module for Sender File Adapter to access a Flat file

Hi,
We have a scenario where the source is a flat file.I want to develop an Adapter Module to make a small change to every line in the Flat file.
Now how do we read a flat file in the Adapter Module?Coz the flat file will be converted to XML file by the Standard Adapter Module of the File adapter.
Please help me out with this.
Thank you,
Anu.

Hi Anu,
If you are not using Content Conversion option Standard Adapter Module does not convert the Flat file to XML .
You can directly access the payload as it is in flat file in the Adapter Module and make changes.
Use the Standard classes ModuleData & moduleContext to fetch the Payload.
chk this :

Adobe Air + Box2D.swc = TypeError: Error #1009 // New way to handle .swc files in Flash for iOS Apps?

Hi,
I need your help please - I have to update one of my iOS Apps. In this App I use Box2d for a simple maze game (it's an app for kids). When I publish & test this game on my Mac it works fine. I can drag my Hero (fish) through this Maze and all collision detections, gravity etc. work perfect.
When I test it on my iPad it doesn't work. The device debugger shows this error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at global$init()

at misc::Entity/handleAddedToStage()
Line 31: loader = new CLibInit();
I guess "CLibInit" should come from the .swc file.
The thing is:
I didn't change anything in this maze game - it seems this has to do something with the new Flash and/or Adobe Air version. Box2D.swc file is included:
It always worked like this - and it works when testing it on my Mac - but it is no longer working on my current system.
So I started my Mac from an older system (10.9.5 on an external HD) and published the App from Flash CS6 and Adobe Air 13.0 - then it suddenly worked on my iPad as before. I was able to tap an the fish and drag it arround.
The same project / app published from my current OS X 10.10 + Flash CC 2014 + Adobe Air 15.0.0.302 is not working. I always receive this Error Message - I can not drag the fish - nothing happens. And I have no idea why this happens and what else I could do. I searched the whole day for a solution but didn't find anything.
So did anything change by the way Flash and/or Air handles .swc files? Is there an other way to include: import cmodule.Box2D.* / CLibInit ?
Please - if anyone has a clue - please let me know!!
Best regards
Jan

Update:
There is also an Android Version of this App. I just published and tested a new version of it on my kindle fire & Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. On both Tablets the maze works perfect. I'm able to drag the fish around etc.
Then I published this Android Version for iOS and tested it on my iPad. Again I'm getting the Error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

...and the fish is stuck - I can't drag it - nothing happens. So this error only occurs when I publish the App for iOS - as an .ipa. Did anything change in the way Air handles .swc files?
I'm totally confused
If anybody has an idea what I could try - PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!

Problem with using swc files in Flash Player 10

I have two Actionscript projects in Flex. One is using Flash Player 9 the other is using 10. Both projects use the fl classes specifically FLVPlayback.
In the Flash Player 10 project I am using the recently released version 2.5. Both players use individual controls instead of a complete skin swf. So the code goes something like video_player.playPauseButton = playPauseBtn. All the swc files are imported through properties-ActionScript Build Path-Library path-add swc. This all works great in both projects exept in the Flash Player 10 project the volumeBar swc does not load properly. In the debug variables for a break point at the function below in FLVPlayback.as the variables handleLeftMargin, handleRightMargin, handleLinkageID and handleY are missing even though they are all in the original fla used to compile the swc. I have tried compiling swc in both Flash CS3 and 4. I have tried moving the Actionscript inside the fla files but nothing changes. This leads me to believe it is a bug in the Flash Player 10 or the version 10 playerglobal.swc since this part of FLVPlayback.as is identical in versions 2 and 2.5. The result is that only the volume bar renders but no handle. Debugging all through fl.video.UIManager.as handle_mc remains null?
public function set volumeBar(s:Sprite):void {
uiMgr.setControl(UIManager.VOLUME_BAR, s);
In the Actionscript 9 project all the variables are accounted for so the volume bar and handle render and work fine.

Further info for anyone who can help!
I am opening a session from a server via the following sql
statement:-
http://servername/virtualdirectoryname?sql=SELECT
* FROM table1 for XML auto&root=root"
I only get the popup window when trying it out from our
webserver?
The server is MS SQLServer
The virtualdirectory is created with access set as Windows,
and always log on set as "myusername" + "mypassword"
So I thought (hoped) I could pass the "myusername" +
"mypassword"
bits into the above sql statement (maybe appended at the
end?)
If I type the above sql statement into a browser it works
perfectly with the xml returned in a web page,
also as I state above, when I run it from within my flash
prog on my local machine it runs OK and returns the results into
the text area specified within the flash prog.
BUT - When I upload my flash prog to the webserver and try it
from there, I get a windows popup asking me for username + password
+ domainname.
any ideas please?

How to import swc file in flexBuilder2 ???

hi i am a flash programmer trying to make flex faceebook connect app, but flex is not importing swc file. I paste the swc file in
Flex SDK 2\frameworks\libs but flex is still not flex is not using swc files classes... what I do next???.... or I miss some step to import swc??
thanks for help buddy

1)Put swc inside the libs folder.
2)Right mouse click on your project.
3)Go to properties.
4)Click on Flex Build path in the Properties window.
5)Click on Library Path tab.
6)Remove the libs folder if there is any.
7)Click on the 'Add SWC' button and browse the path of the swc from location of your project.
And click ok. you will get this.

There are some strange problems when i used swc files in my as3 project

Hello everyone,
        My development environment: fdk4.0, flash cs5.5, I publish fla file by using flash cs5.5,   publish setting is fp version :10.0&10.1 ->swc. I imported swc files to my as3 project and complied them by using flex sdk4.0. When i run my project,fp was crash.   when i republished on fp 10.2, the project works. Is there any reason?
        another strange problem, for example   a MovieClip's aslink named "A" in swc, it has a textfield named "subText". I write code like below:
                        var mc:A = new A();
                        mc.subText.text = "test";
         when mc called "subText" , fp throws null property error, it can't find subText.. very small number of movieclips have this problem, I sloved this by duplicating a new one and rename it.
         but i don't know why ?
          thank you for your reply.

I should have figured that out from your original post. I think there is a possibility that your bookmarks/history database (places.sqlite) has a corrupted record. Rather than take drastic action on that immediately, could you do a test? The test is to exit Firefox, rename your existing database, and restart Firefox. Firefox should import your last bookmarks backup. You then could check whether the problem remains or whether you got a clean restore of bookmarks. After the test, assuming you prefer to retain your history, you could undo the procedure and try restoring your bookmark backup into the database to see whether that overwrites the problem record. If not, then we would go back to possible drastic action.
'''Test procedure''':
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Switch back to Firefox and Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''places.sqlite''' to something like places_20130614.sqlite. Keep this window open.
Restart Firefox. By design, Firefox should import your last automatic bookmark backup.
If you return to the Library dialog, how does it look?
'''To reverse the test''' (but preserve a backup of your history/bookmark database):
Exit Firefox
Delete the newly created places.sqlite file
Right-click copy and paste the places_20130614.sqlite and rename the copy to places.sqlite
Restart Firefox and open the Library dialog. Should look like it did a few minutes ago before any changes.
''If the test showed no corruption,'' try to restore your last bookmarks backup. The procedure is described in this article: [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]].
Does any of that get us closer to a solution?
