Sharing SharedObjects between Classes

I have created a varable of Shared Object inside the Document Class
     EXAMPLE -> var so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("Barns","/");
but inside of a movieclip class I have
     if(so.data.adams == "yes"){
          adamsHighlight.visble = true}
and I get an error
E:\Android 2.0\ohioMap.as, Line 12
1120: Access of undefined property so.
what am i missing here. I thought if it was public, it is shared throughout the project
sorry new to classes.

it is but so is not defined in your movieclip class unless you use:
var so:SharedObject=SharedObject.getLocal("Barns","/");
now, the so in your document class and in your movieclip class reference the same object. eg,
//doc class
so.data.testvar="hi";
//movieclip class
trace(so.data.testvar); // should trace 'hi'

Sharing SharedObjects between multiple .swfs

Relatively simple problem; I have a project that I think may be more manageable if I break it up into multiple small .swf files rather than having a gargantuan mega .swf.
Now, I know that I could use a root .swf and load data from the others, but I think that it'll be a lot easier to debug and update if I'm using separate self-contained .swfs, so this is the direction I'm currently investigating.
However, the .swfs won't really work unless I can have user-data persist between them, so I'm wondering if I can load a SharedObject saved by another .swf file? Are there any important caveats that I need to be aware of?
In particular, can anyone give me sample code that would allow me to do this with both an online and offline copy of the files; i.e - if I run the same set of .swfs from haravikk.com, and locally, I want them to still be able to share data with one-another. In this case though I won't need to worry about sharing data between a local copy and haravikk.com, just so long as the files themselves can pass data within whatever domain they're loaded it should be fine.

To do this I still need to make sure that all .swfs are retrieving/flushing their SharedObjects to the same domain though, right?
I'm curious, is there a good way to work out what the right domain is dynamically?
For example; say I have "Menu.swf", and "About.swf", both store in the same folder "MySite", so the files are located at "MySite/Menu.swf" and "MySite/About.swf" respectively. To avoid tying the files to a particular domain-name (so it can still work offline) I'd like to grab the current location of the .swf, and remove the file-name so that I have a domain containing just the enclosing folder.
Is there a best way to do this? Basically so I can have my .swf files using a consistent domain for storing/saving, while still supporting relocating the files, so they will work offline if I copy them to my local machine for example.

Sharing functions between classes

I have Flash project that is set up something like this:
myProject.fla
- document class = myMenu.as
- the document class imports a menu item from menuItem.as
(import menuItem;)
I have a function in myMenu.as that sets the text formatting
for all the text fields on the page. I want to be able to use this
same function in menuItem.as so that all the formatting is
consistent & you only have to change it in one place. How do I
access this function from both myMenu.as & menuItem.as?
Thanks,

Create another class say Utility with this function as
public.
And create object of this class in both menuItem and myMenu
to use this function.
This is just a rough idea how you can do it. but ideally that
will depend on the class relationships/design patterns you are
using.

Sharing variables between classes

Hi,
I wrote a class to handle button functionality. I want the
onPress event in this class to play a movieclip that is sitting in
my .fla file, also access some boolean values in the .fla.
What's the best way to implement this?

Best practice is to avoid directly accessing non-static final fields of other classes - they should generally by private or if necessary protected.
get/set methods are the usual way to do this. You can use public static final fields without having a getter.
Static in the context of field definition identifies fields which exist at the class scope (1 copy per class) versus those (non-static) which exist at the instance scope (1 copy per instance of the class).
If the value you want to share instance-speciifc, use a non-static field backed up by non-static get/set methods. If you want one copy per process, static fields with static get/set methods are best.

Sharing jsp between multiple controllers

Is there a way to share a jsp between 2 different controllers?
If I put the shared jsp in its own directory and the 2 controllers in their own directories - I seem to be able to use netui:anchors and specifying the fully qualified "href" attribute - but not the "action" attribute. For example this works (but means I have to specify the exact controller):
<netui:anchor href="/portlets/Controller1/findAction.do">
            find
</netui:anchor>This does <b>not </b>work:
<netui:anchor action="findAction">
            find
</netui:anchor>Additionally, if I want a form to be on this shared jsp - I don't know of a way to use the netui tags to accomplish this... This example results in an error (as if it's trying to find the action in Global.app):
        <netui:form action="submitSharedForm">
            <table>
                <tr valign="top">
                    <td>Foo:</td>
                    <td>
                    <netui:textBox dataSource="{actionForm.foo}"/>
                    </td>
                </tr>
            </table>
            <netui:button value="submitSharedForm" type="submit"/>
        </netui:form>Are there other better techniques for sharing jsps between multiple controllers (jpf)? The only other thing I was thinking of trying to have a jsp found within the same directory as the controller include the shared jsp (which seems kind of tacky)...

You may consider using a base pageflow controller that has the common JSPs
in its directory. I have done that before like this:
// inheritLocalPaths=true lets us inherit the JSPs from the base pageflow
@Jpf.Controller(
inheritLocalPaths=true
public class MyChildController extends MyBaseController

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly Thanks anyway!

Sharing files between users and macs

My husband and I share an iMac. I have a MBA for traveling and my husband a PC laptop (though he rarely uses for private stuff). We both have iPhones.
We are looking for a way to:
- Share our photos (we don't use iPhoto) and some files. We would like to have this in one shared folder, that we can access from both accounts in the iMac, the MBA and ideally (though not a must) the PC and iPhones. We would both need to have admin rights to edit documents, etc.
- Have access to all the information in my account on the iMac from the MBA. Ideally, same thing for his and the PC.
- Have access to all the data remotely when traveling.
- Have all the data backed up locally (we already have a cloud backup, but we'd like to have a local backup too as it's easier and quicker to access)
We have read a lot about configuration, NAS, time capsule... but we get more and more confused, as we are obviously no tech experts.
Dropbox is not our preferred choice. We already have a cloud backup system. We'd rather have the files stored and accessed locally for everyday use.
Using a NAS to store shared folders and backup the rest sounds good, but they either seem very complicated to set up, or they have mixed reviews in terms of stability, especially to access files remotely.
Timecapsule seems easier and more straightforward, but I'm not sure it would solve the "sharing files between users and macs with admin rights"? It seems to be more focused on backing up the main drive and then providing access to the backed up files. (Though I might be completely mistaken!)
We just can't manage to have one shared folder between both accounts in the iMac. We need to grant admin rights document by document. We don't manage to make it work automatically so we both have one folder to access with full rights for all the contents inside it. And this seems to me like something that should easily be done...?
Any help, advice, proposals... would be greatly appreciated!!!

Move any file you want to the other user to access to the Shared Folder. Anything you put in that folder is available to all users.
The shared folder is here:

Sharing information between tiled view and view bean

I have come across one more problem. I have a search result
page. This search result page has a static text field and a repeated group
(I simplified the page description, for explanation purpose). In the NetD
implementation they are maintaining a page level attribute (say boolean
haveSenisitiveCustomers) and setting this attribute in the
afterDataObjectExecute event. (This data object is associated with the
repeated). In end display event of static text field, they are displaying
message say " due to Registration type, not all customers meeting the
criteria are listed") if the haveSensitiveCustomers flag is set.
After Migration, the boolean flag and static Text Field movedto
SearchResultViewBean and afterDataObjectExecuteEvent has moved to
TiledViewBean. Actual processing done is more complicated than this
explanation. However, it boils down to sharing information between
tiledViewBean and its parent bean. How do we achieve this in the Migrated
Application?
One way is to add getter methods in the child tiled view bean( to
access in parent view bean, call getRepeated1 and cast to the actual type
and invoke the get methods)Probably the typical solution (I say typical because I don't yet know) will
be to do what you suggest: provide methods between views that can be used to
determine the state needed for processing like this.
However, let me alert you to something that's different than ND, and which
may cause you some trouble. In ND, all retrieving DataObjects associated
with a page executed at one time, and the afterDataObjectExcecuteEvent fired
before any display processing began. However, in JATO, tiled views are
independent objects, and any models associated with them only execute when
the tiled view is first displayed.
Therefore, if the static test field you refer to appears in the page before
the tiled view, then the tiled view will not have executed its associated
model before the static text field is rendered. You will never see the
static text field display the text you want because you won't have the
information at display time. (If the text field appears after the repeated,
then it's not problem, as the display of the tiled view will have executed
the associate model before the field displays.)
The solution is to manually reference the tiled view and its associate model
before they would normally execute. You would execute the model and set the
tiled view's setAutoRetrieveEnabled() to false to prevent it from executing
the model a second time. Perhaps the easiest thing to do would be this:
beforeStaticTextDisplay(...)
// Force the tiled view to execute the associated model
Repeated1TiledView tiledView=
(Repeated1TiledView)getChild("Repeated1");
tiledView.beginDisplay();
tiledView.setAutoRetrieveEnabled(false);
Although the beginDisplay() method will be executed twice in this case (once
deliberately, above, and later during actual display), there should be no
overhead. The beginDisplay() method doesn't do anything anyway except
execute associated auto-retrieving models and fire the
afterAllModelsExecute() event.
Mike, do you concur or have any comments?
This explanation rests on the understanding of a number of other subjects,

Sharing photos between multiple users on one Mac

I'm trying to figure out how to easily share photos imported in by one user to other users in my family on my mac. I'm assuming we don't have to import them multiple times. It seems cumbersome to this new mac user to share them. I find the issue with iTunes. Any help?

HI Darien,
Here are all the links I have for the different kinds of sharing:
SHARING IPHOTO LIBRARIES
Sharing libraries between users on the same local network
You can also share a library on the same machine between users the same way.
Sharing libraries between users on the same machine...
-both users must have sharing enabled in their iPhoto Preferences
-both users must be logged in and have iPhoto running
-Remember that you can only view the other library. You can't edit the photos or play the saved slideshows or view the made books or burn them to CD or DVD. The books and slideshows will show up as an album. You can play that album as an "on the fly" slideshow. You can drag images from the sharing library to your library in the source column to import them to your library. You can then edit, add to albums, books, slideshow, etc.

SHARING ONE IPHOTO LIBRARY BETWEEN USERS ON SAME MACHINE
You can try one of these three methods:
1- Use iPhoto Library Manager-the paid version
The documentation page will give instructions on how it is done.
2- Sharing one iPhoto library between several users on one machine
3- Share an iPhoto Library in tiger Using ACL's
4- I have also read about ShareAlike
There is no other info on the site about how it works.
I strongly urge anyone wanting to try any of the methods for sharing one iPhoto Library folder among more than one user to backup all iPhoto Library folders before attemptin anything.

Custom Events and Listeners between classes

I've got a project I've been working on for weeks that I'm
having yet another problem with. I'm trying to learn AS3 which is
why it's taking so long but that's not important for this post.
I wanted to create a custom event class so that I could make
sure the event does not interfere with other "COMPLETE" events that
are being passed between classes. In other words, I have a few
things that need to complete prior to a function being called...
one is some XML being loaded and another is a font loaded. So, I
thought I would create a custom FontLoaded class that extends Event
and make the type something like "FontLoadedEvent.LOADED". That way
I could listen for the XML "Event.COMPLETE" and this font event
also.
Please tell me if I'm going down the wrong path here but I
don't seem to be getting the dispatched event for my new custom
event. Also, how does one detect if it's being dispatched other
than if the eventListener is fired? Any other ways to test
this?

You can trace the event to see if it dispatched.
Also, this is not a good case to create a new event. Custom
events are used to store additional information. MouseEvent exists
because Event doesn't have localX, localY, etc. properties. Since
you don't seem to be throwing additional properties, you can use a
regular event.
trace(dispatchEvent(new Event("panelFontsLoaded"));
addEventListener("panelFontsLoaded", onFontsLoaded);
Static consts are used to help debug typos. The event type is
just a string, often stored in a const.

Confused about sharing music between two ipods

I have a 30GB ipod video, and I bought my husband an 8GB nano for Christmas. I have been searching the threads trying to figure out how we can share music, but I seem to get conflicting information. I understand how to create separate libraries and I think I understand how to allow him access to my library (move itunes music folder into public folder?) but am still unclear about sharing music between ipods. Because in some of the posts, I have read that while you can share music and listen to it via multiple itunes libraries, you can ONLY listen to it on the computer--you cannot get it onto another ipod due to anti-piracy measures.
I know I could create a playlist for him in my library, but I like to autosync my ipod and I don't really want his music on mine, because the songs we BOTH like I've already imported into my itunes library. I was hoping to set up a separate library for him, import my music files into it, then let him delete the artists he's not interested in and add the music he wants that I don't. But I don't want to go through all that if he won't be able to play the shared songs on his own ipod.
I hope all this makes sense. Can someone who shares songs in this way give me some advice? Again, I would like for us to maintain separate libraries but I would like to make mine available to him so he doesn't have to reimport all the CDs I've already imported (and I don't want to waste computer space by having multiple copies of the same songs).
Any help would be appreciated!

I know I could create a playlist for him in my library, but I like to autosync my ipod and I don't really want his music on mine, because the songs we BOTH like I've already imported into my itunes library.
Ver easy to accomplish.
I have one library, two 4GB iPods and ~20GB of music.
Rather than duplicating libraries or creating separate user accounts/sharing music you can't load, etc. which simply takes up space on the disk drive, use the same library and use sync only what you want.
Create playlist(s) of your own music from the library.
Add/remove from those playlists as you want.
Connect your iPod, select it in iTunes and select the Music tab.
Select Sync music, Sync selected playlists and choose what you want.
The way I do it is I create a main playlist (Chris's Music) of music in the library that I like.
I also create a smart playlist (Not Chris's Music) and set it to Match Rule - Playlist is not Chris's Music.
This helps to manage my music by showing all music not in main playlist so I can browse for music I may have missed or now want to add.
I do the same for my daughters iPod except she gets to pick her own stuff.
This way whenever any music is added by either of us, it is available to the other with no problems.

Problem setting up shared printer between PC and Mac with 10.6

I am trying to setup a shared printer between my Mac and PC. I have a HP K80 attached to my PC (which has Vista Home Premium). I have a Macbook pro with 10.6. I have shared the printer on the PC side. From the Mac I have added the printer via Windows Printer sharing, but for some reason I cannot print to the printer. Everytime I try to print, the job just pauses. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Thanks I installed the gutenprint drivers and tried this, and now all working:
http://guides.macrumors.com/Printingto_a_Shared_PCPrinter
Printing to a Shared PC Printer
This article describes how to print from Mac OS X to a shared printer connected to a Windows XP machine. It assumes the computers are already networked and that you can access the PC's files. These instructions are relevant for Mac OS X 10.2 upwards. The instructions may work with Vista. I don't have the means to try it.
1. Find the IP address of your PC - go on Start > Run. Type in cmd and click run. Now type in ipconfig /all and hit enter. This should give you the machine's IP address.
2. Share the printer. Open up Printers and find the one you want to share. Right-click and choose Share. Now click the 'Share this printer' radio button. Now choose a sharing name. Keep it simple - e.g. HP, Office, PC etc.
3. Open a web browser on your Mac and type localhost:631 in the address bar
4. You should now have the Common UNIX Printing System web interface up. Click the 'Add Printer' link.
5. Type a name for the printer, making sure you don't include /, # or space characters. Click continue.
6. Select Windows Printer via SAMBA from the Device list and click continue.
7. For the URI, you need to include a username and password for an account on your PC. You then need to enter a URI in the following format: smb://username:password@ipaddress/printer. So for example smb://johndoe:[email protected]/HP
8. Choose your printer's make, or if you have a PPD file for the printer, choose that. Click continue and choose your printer's model. Now click Add Printer.
9. Done! You now have a list of options for changing the various properties of the printer.
You don't need to be on the same workgroup or domain as your PC, just the same subnet. If both your Mac and PC are connected to the same router, either wired or wirelessly, then you should be on the same subnet.
Thanks guys

Is there any Similar between Class.forName() and new operator ???

Plz tel me is there any Similar between Class.forName() and new operator ??? i have been asked this ques in interview

You probably should have used the other thread:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=792678
To add a little confusion to the matter...Class objects are in fact objects. They're objects representing classes. So, in a sense, I guess, you could say they're similar -- in each you get an object. But in practice Class objects and all other objects should be considered semantically different unless you're doing some pretty unusual stuff. Also Class.forName is more of a factory method than a constructor.

Diffrence between Class.forName() and new Operator

What is diffrence between class.forName() and new operator.Please tell in much detail.
Also about classloader.loadclass.
Suppose the class that we are tring to load with the help of class.forname is not compiled. Again if I make changes at runtime to that class will that get reflected.

What is diffrence between class.forName() and new
operator.Please tell in much detail.Class.forName loads a class. The new operator creates a new instance. Apple trees and apples.
Also about classloader.loadclass.Read the API.
Suppose the class that we are tring to load with the
help of class.forname is not compiled.Then you can't load it and get an exception. Read the API.
Again if I

reflected.Depends on the changes and when exactly you do them.
