Typed objects p2p through netstream.send()

Can type information be preserved when sending objects using the netstream .send method? I notice when debuggin on the other side that all the objects come through as just that, instances of the object class.
Could you have a custom object instance, say Person, and send that via rtmfp to the other side and preserve the fact that it is a Person?
Sean

Hello. Yes you can preserve the type of the objects when they are sent with NetStream.send(). Just add [RemoteClass] metadata to the class which type you want to preserve.
    [RemoteClass]
    public class NetStreamMessage
          public var id:Number;
          public var data:Object;
          public function NetStreamMessage(data:Object)
               this.data = data;
    var message:NetStreamMessage = new NetStreamMessage("some message");
    publishNetStream.send("handleMessageReceived",message);

NetStream.send not working in Flash Player 11.2 Beta with Cirrus, Please confirm if it is a bug

Title
NetStream.send not working in Flash Player 11.2 Beta with Cirrus, Please confirm if it is a bug or feature
Description
Problem Description:
NetStream.send can not send data to peerstreams when using with cirrus. Conflict with documents.
Sorry for tag the build as 11.0.1.3 while the bug is actually on 11.2 beta since the bug report system didn't have 11.2 beta yet.
If you are not responsible for 11.2 beta bug fix, please help a hand to handle this bug to 11.2 team.
This bug is "killing" to your application, so we really appreciate your help. Thanks.
==Publisher==
nc.connect("rtmfp://");
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc, NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
ns.publish("sendtest");
...//after connection success.
ns.send("clientfunction", "ok"); // this line cannot reach subscribers. even if subscribers have client object correctly.
==Subscriber==
nc.connect("rtmfp://");
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc, cirrusid);
var client:Object = new Object();
client.clientfunction = clientfunction; // target function
ns.client = client;
ns.play("sendtest");
Steps to Reproduce:
1. compile the code in the attachment to SendTestExample.swf (not be able to paste it here)
2. run it under flash player 11.2.202.19 beta
3. run it under flash player 11
Actual Result:
HeartBeat is:
Start HeartBeat:
send hello
send hello
send hello
which means NetStream.send was not able to call "clientfunction" as expected.
Expected Result:
Start HeartBeat:
send hello
in client function: hello
send hello
in client function: hello
send hello
in client function: hello
which can call into the clientfunction as flash player 11 did.
Any Workarounds:
I can not find it out since it's an api level bug. But this can be very important for lots of applications which rely on send to do rpc.

Optimizing chunks size for filesending with NetStream.send() method

Hi,
I would like to implement a p2p filesending application. Unfortunately object replication is not the best solution for this so I need to implement it myself.
The process is the following:
Once the user has selected the file for sending, I load it to the memory. After it is completed I cut the file's data into chunks and send these chunks with the NetStream.send() method - to get the progress of filesending -.
How can I optimize the size of the chunks for the fastest filesending method or what is the best size for a chunk?

Hi there
Please submit a Wish Form to ask for some future version of Captivate to offer such a feature! (Link is in my sig)

How to play and stop flv files through NetStream in AIR Application

Hi,
In a folder I have 'n' number of flv file, which are DRM protected. when the user try to play those files for the first time through my AIR application, it will prompt for username and password and gets the license/voucher from the server and store it in AIR Runtime. so that from the next time onwords it won't prompt for username and password as because it already has license/voucher.
     My problem is assume there are 500 files, such that for each file the user has to enter his credentials[username and password]. which is a stupid thing. I want to avoid this process by implementing this process internally/programetically. By playing/accessing each file through netstream from the folder and setDRMAuthenticationCredentials for that file and stop the stream. Here I am able to play each file but I am failed to stop it. I mean to say I will get the license for all the flv files internally[while loading my AIR application], such that user should not be interrupted for his credentials for each file.He should play as if he is accessing/playing a non-DRM protected file. I will be very thank full if any one help me out in this.

Netstream.send only text messages or any type?

In Netstream.send() documentation it says: " ... arguments
— Optional arguments that can be of any type."
In the documentation to the Netstream class it says "You can
also use NetStream objects to send text messages to all subscribed
clients (see the NetStream.send() method)."
I tried to send a Rectangle with Netstream.send:
Code on Sender:
var rect = new Rectangle(1,2,5,5);
nc.call("serverShowRect",null, rect);
Code on Flash Media Server: (FMS 2.0.4)
STREAM_NAME = "myStream";
Client.prototype.serverShowRect= function(msg)
myStream = Stream.get(STREAM_NAME);
myStream.send("@setDataFrame","onRectangle",msg);
Code on Client:
function onRectangle(infoObject:Object):void {
trace ("Rectangle received.");
trace ("tracing properties:");
var key:String;
for (key in infoObject) {
trace(key + ": " + infoObject[key]);
try {
var rect:Rectangle = infoObject["rectangle"] as Rectangle;
trace("Rect as rect:" +rect);
catch (error:Error){
trace(error.message);
The function onRectangle() ist called ok. The infoObject's
properties can be shown by trace. But I cannot convert infoObject
into an Rectangle. var rect will be either null or I get an
type-conversion error.
Does anyone know how to send other data than Strings using
Netstream.send()? Or can one actually only send Strings using FMS2

You should receive an email receipt with every purchase that you make in iTunes on the computer or in iTunes, the App Store or the iBookstore on an iOS device. I always get a receipt via email. You are not getting them?
If you are asking if Apple will send you a detailed purchase history, the answer to that is no since you can access that information in your account in iTunes on your computer. Click on Account under the Quick links on the right side of iTunes, enter your password at the prompt, and then click on "See all" to the right of Purchase History in the next window.

Netstream.send() privacy settings

I'm using Netstream.send() to transfer a file between two users.
A previous discussion can be found here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890122?tstart=0
It works well except of flash settings issue.
When trying to access a camera or mic the Flash ask the user for permissions automatically.
When trying to send a file, the Flash player doesn't show the privacy popup.
If the user doesn't set his privacy to Allow, the file transfer fails.
There are two issues:
1. The privacy settings popup isn't shown automatically.
2. The privacy popup ask permissions to access the camera and mic and doesn't say anything about data transfer.
Am I missing something or are the above real issues?
Thanks

the P2P access dialog will only show when using RTMFP Groups (NetGroup or a group NetStream). if you're just doing NetStream.send() on a 1-to-1 (NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS and new NetStream(netConnection, peerID)) P2P connection, then there is no P2P access dialog.
if you're doing groups and the P2P access dialog isn't showing up, there are a few possible causes:
1) for some reason you at one point selected "Deny" *and* checked "Remember"; in that case, Flash Player won't present the dialog and will behave as though you clicked "Deny"
2) Flash Player's window or region in the browser page is too small for the P2P access dialog. if the P2P access dialog can't be presented because the window is too small, it will behave as though you clicked "Deny"
3) there is a known bug in Flash Player when using wmode=direct (which you would use for Stage Video) where, when you set wmode=direct, the P2P access dialog won't be displayed, and the behavior will be as though you clicked "Deny". this issue will be fixed in a future release of Flash Player. to work around this, set wmode to a different value.

NetStream.send() with datareliable=false

Does NetStream.send() and setting NetStream.datareliable = false make the flash player use UDP? Or does it just use TCP for 1 second and then stop?
Thanks

the dataReliable flag doesn't control whether you're using TCP or UDP. if you're using RTMP, you're using TCP because that's what RTMP goes over. if you're using RTMFP, you're using UDP because that's what RTMFP goes over.
if you're using RTMP, the videoReliable, audioReliable, and dataReliable flags have no effect because TCP is fully reliable all the time.
those flags only have meaning for RTMFP connections. when video/audio/dataReliable is set to true, RTMFP sends the corresponding message with full reliability, retransmitting it if necessary. if a reliable flag is false, RTMFP will not retransmit the corresponding message, and the message will only remain in the transmission queue for 1 second (so depending on network congestion/throughput, the message might not be transmitted at all).
messages of different types are sent with different priority in RTMFP. audio is highest priority, then NetStream.send() (data), then video. all RTMFP Groups modes (multicast, posting, directed routing, object replication) are lower priority than video. priority matters when bandwidth is tight.

How to create custom attributes & object classes through ldif files in OID

Hi,
I have to create 4 attributes and one object class(custom) in OID. I want to creae these attributes and object class through LDIF file.
I tried creating an attribute through this command
ldapadd -p 389 -h localhost -D cn=orcladmin -w password -f D:/newattr.ldif
this ldif file contains inf. for creating a new attributes:
dn: cn=subschemasubentry
changetype: add
add: attributetypes
attributetypes: ( 1.2.3.4.5.6.10 NAME "xsUserType_new" DESC "User Type Definition" EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
SYNTAX "1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15" )
I am getting error: Object class violation
Failed to find add in mandatory or optional attribute list.
Please help to find where I am going wrong...
Thanks.

Hi Ajay,
Thank you for the help. Now i am able to create both attributes and object classes in OID through Ldif files.
I was getting constraint violation error because (I think) I was not giving proper naming convection for attributes and object classes. For OID, there are certain Ldap naming conventions. They are as follows:
# X below is the enterprise number assigned by IANA
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.1 - assign to SNMP objects
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2 - assign to LDAP objects
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.1 - assign to LDAP syntaxes
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.2 - assign to LDAP matchingrules
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.3 - assign to LDAP attributes
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.4 - assign to LDAP objectclasses
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.5 - assign to LDAP supported features
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.9 - assign to LDAP protocol mechanisms
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.10 - assign to LDAP controls
1.3.6.1.4.1.X.2.11 - assign to LDAP extended operations
By using these conventions for attributes and object class, I did got any error and they were created in OID.
Thanks a zillion.

Purchase order through External Send to include a CC address

Does anyone have any idea how to get the e-mail of a purchase order sent through External Send to include a CC address in the e-mail?
I have searched the forum and found a few questions regarding sending a purchase order to more than 1 e-mail address using external send, but not solutions.
We have got this working to send to the vendor, but the purchasing manager won't use it until we are able to cc the purchaser into the mail. This is to allow the purchaser to keep track on what has been sent. It seems like an obvious thing to want to do. Is it possible in standard SAP? If not, where should I start to get this to work? Is there a customer exit or another area of code somewhere that I can change to trigger a second e-mail. Alternatively can I run this through workflow somehow?
Any suggestions will be greatfully received and rewarded.
Thank you
Karen

The vendor e-mail address is picked up from the master data and the purchaser's e-mail would be picked up from their user account. The problem is that I don't know at what stage in the program SAPFM06P, used for sending the purchase order, I could set up the distribution list.
If I set the vendor address to name.address@somewhere; name2.address@somewhere else this works and both name and name2 receive the e-mail. But it would mean the purchasers ammending the vendor e-mail address each time, which just isn't practical.
I probably should have said that I'm using SAP version 46c and the e-mail is sent using standard SAP settings for 5-External send using program SAPFM06P and form MEDRUCK.
Thanks for the advice

Issue when sending PO through external send

Hi
I did the configuration for sending the PO through external send. When I am assigning message type to PO and selecting option as "send immediately' , messge type is not getting assiged.
Thanks
Anand

Hi,
Check t.code: NACE for application "EF"----> click Output types
In next screen,Click your message type and now check did you have Dispatch time 4 (Send immediately) in "Default values" TAB. If not select Dispatch time 4 (Send immediately) & save.
Now you can maintain condition record in MN04 with PO message type with all other details like PO document type with Dispatch time 4 (Send immediately) ..etc..& save.

Copy, paste typing object

Is there any way to copy a "typing" object and paste it
somewhere else? I'm trying to edit a project and one of my slides
contains a typing object of a key being pressed. This object
appears in the timeline but there does not seem to be any way to
copy it and add it to a different slide. Any advice on how to do
that?

Hi gobaldsoon (I'm bald all the time!)
Unfortunately there is simply no way to edit the typing
object. Because of this, I find them way too limiting and never use
them. What you
can do, however, is to download fellow Adobe Community
Expert Paul Dewhurst's Typing Text animation from the Captivate
Exchange. You may visit the Captivate Exchange by

        public function set friendname(value:String):void
            _friendname = value;
I wrote a function to sort the ArrayCollection
private function sortDataByFriendName(rawData:ArrayCollection):ArrayCollection
            var dataSortField:SortField = new SortField();
               dataSortField.name = "friendname";
                dataSortField.numeric = false;
                dataSortField.caseInsensitive = true;
                 dataSortField.descending = true;
          var dataSort:Sort = new Sort();
                dataSort.fields = [dataSortField];
                  rawData.sort = dataSort;
                rawData.refresh();
            return rawData;
But the ArrayCollection dosen't sort.
How do I sort the Sort the ArrayCollections with typed objects
Thanks in advance.

Looks right to me. How did you verify it didn't sort? Did you get a
REFRESH event?

Can objects returned from web services be cast to strongly typed objects?

Can objects returned from web services be cast to strongly
typed objects?
Last I tried this was with one of the beta of Flex2 and it
did not work. You had to use ObjectProxy or something like that...
Thanks

Please post this question in the CRM On Demand Integration Development forum.

Typed objects p2p through netstream.send()
