Uploading bitmapData using FileReference class ?

Hi gurus ;)
Question nr 1.
Is it possibly to upload bitmapData to server using
FileReference class ? How should i approach this issue, is there
any ready classes available for this purpose. I'm generating
bitmaps inside my Flash/Flex App and need to store them under users
profile in server.
Question nr 2.
Can i upload files from remote server to another using
FileReference class
e.g Somehow like :
uploadURL = new URLRequest();
uploadURL.url = "
http://www.[yourDomain
fileURL.url = "
http://www.myLocation.com/myfile.JPG";
file = new FileReference(fileURL.url);
file.upload(uploadURL);
This is just an idea, sure not working ;)
Any ideas are helpful
Thx

I did a small application that uploads a file to the server
every hour. If the server response that a login is required to
upload the file, it goes to a login page to do the login and
retried to upload the file.
I got the server response in order to know if the file did
upload correctly or not (I have to send more form data than just
the file). I didn't try the mime type since it's not relevant for
my application and usualy this information is not very trust worthy
anyways.
I'm not sure what you mean with exceptions, if you are
referring to HTTP errors, I think there is an event for that, but I
used the IOError event for this, and it seems to work good
also.

How can I load and save text using FileReference class

Let me start by saying I have no intention of using php and I can't wait until flash cs5 comes out with its new read/write capabilities
I want to load and save XML files (stored on my local hard-drive) in AS3.
I am using the FileReference class.
Firstly I have noticed that when using FileReference.save if you replace an existing file instead of writing over the file data is appended to the end of the file. Can I make it so the file is overwritten (as it should be) or make it impossible for the user to save in such a situation.
Secondly I want to load in text from an external file using FileReference.load I know that somehow you use FileReference.browse first to get it to work but I want to know exactly how to do it.
I have looked for a tutorial about loading text in this manner and have not found one.
Any help would be much appreciated especially if you could point me in the direction of a relevant tutorial
Thanks

the filereference class is for downloading and uploading files.
if you want to load xml, use the xml class.
and, if you want to write to an xml file and don't want to use server-side code, wait.

Using the fileReference class to upload image

I've been using the loadVars to upload text and pass
variables to php and onto the server. I've begun using the Flash
Filereference class so an image can be uploaded directly from a
Flash movie, not involving an html form. But within the
Filereference script I can't figure out how to pass a variable to
php as I did using loadVars method. I've tried a number of hit-miss
ways but they've all been misses.
Right now the path to save an image file is "hard-wired" into
the php script. This is the var that I want to pass.
thanks
The script is here if you need to take a peek:

Someone else asked about this recently. I think the answer
you're after is here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=15&catid=288&threadid =1317799
That's for POST data.
If you want to send additional GET data you could just append
it to the url.

Using tie-classed to change name of file uploaded through FTP protocol srvr

Hi,
I'm trying to use the extendedPreAddItem (or Post) method in an S_TieFolder class to automatically change the name of a file (an S_PublicObject) when it enters a Folder (via an FTP put upload).
I'm fiddling around with code like this:
AttributeValue val = AttributeValue.newAttributeValue(newDocName);
val.setName(Document.NAME_ATTRIBUTE);
rightpo.setAttribute(val);
But it does not work: in the FTP client the filename is indeed changed, but somewhere at lower levels the original filename is still being used...
Any helpfull ideas would be appreciated.

I'm aware of this... My ftp-client (FTP-Voyager) will prompt me if I "put" a file that already exists in the remote folder, and ask me to go ahead and replace the file, or cancel the put-operation.
However in this case the ftp-client sees file X' remotely and I'm putting file X, so it does not prompt me at all...
Stopping and restarting the FTP-client (in case it caches remote folder-contents...) does not change the behaviour.
Timewise this is what happens:
1) I put file X.
2) My S_TieFolder class (extendedPreAddItem) changes it's name into X'.
3) The ftp-put successfully completes
4) I refresh the remote folder contents and see the X' name instead of the original X name.
5) I re-put X (and would now like to have it changed into file X'').
6) Before my S_TieFolder code executes, something (I'm still suspecting the cm-sdk) deletes the X' file first... ==> the logfile does not show any communication with the ftp-client here now.
7) Then my S_TieFolder code executes and changes the name into X''.
8) I refresh the remote folder contents: File X' disappears, file X (just re-put) changes into X''.
More testing has shown that I'm also not able to delete these files (whose names have been changed by S_TieFolder): 'file does not exist' error.
I need to know:
a) If changing the files name on-the-fly using S_Tie class is supported at all.
and
b) if so, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks

How do I use FileReference.load() when selecting multiple files???

Hi All,
Basically I am developing my own Adobe Air FTP client application (Flex builder 4.6). I have have successfully managed to get the user to select one or more files from their local machine to send via FTP. The file(s) are then added to an arrayCollection which populates a data grid.
I then have an upload button that when pressed I need to loop through each file that has previously been selected and pick up the file name, size and data stored within the file. I know I can use the FileReference class and the load() method to load the file and access the data via the .data method but the data variable is always null meaning i am obviously not using the load() method in the relevant place in the code.
Can anyone help me get around this probblem please??
Below are my snippets of code that I think you will need:
When the Browse button is selected it fires the selectHandler function below to add files to the data grid:
private function selectHandler(event:Event):void {
    fileList = fileReferenceList.fileList;
    for (var i:Number=0; i<fileList.length; i++) {
          var file:FileReference = FileReference(fileList[i]);
          arrayCollection.addItem({name:file.name, size:file.size, object:file})
    uploadTest.enabled = true;
When i click the upload button i need to loop through all of the selected files which I am doing using a for each loop:
private function uploadFile(event:MouseEvent):void {
         //Loops through each array element
    for each( var obj:Object in arrayCollection ) {
          //Need to get file details in here - PLEASE HELP??
Thanks
Paul

Uhm, as you "check the folder daily", you'll have one or the other junk mail popping up in the preview frame anyway, right?
Well, as soon as you decided you want to delete all junk mail, you can do so without seeing any of them anymore:
With any of the other mailboxes selected and showing, right-click on any of the mailboxes (can be Inbox, Flagged, Sent, Junk, Trash), then click Erase Junk Mail and answer the following dialog with Erase.
The junk mails will be erased without you - or anyone looking over your shoulder - seeing even only one anymore.

File upload, download using ADF UIX and not JSP

I have examples for the file upload, download using JSP
But I want to use ADF UIX. Look and feel in this is impressing and I want to use this. Any one have example for this.
Users will select a file from their desktop
This will be stored into the database (Any document. Word, Excel)
When they query the records then the UIX column need to give a hyperlink. Clicking on the link should prompt to download the file to the local system

Sure, I use the Apache Commons File Upload package, so that is what I will discuss here ( [Commons File Upload|http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/] ).
The Commons File Upload uses instances of ProgressListener to receive upload progress status. So first create a simple class that implements ProgressListener:
public class ProgressListenerImpl implements ProgressListener {
    private int percent = 0;
    public int getPercentComplete() {
        return percent;
    public void update(long pBytesRead, long pContentLength, int pItems) {
        if (pContentLength > -1) { //content length is known;
            percent = (new Long((pBytesRead / pContentLength) * 100)).intValue();
}So in your Servlet that handles file upload you will need to create an instance of this ProgressListenerImpl, register it as a listener and store it in the session:
ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload();
ProgressListenerImpl listener = new ProgressListenerImpl();
upload.setProgressListener(listener);
request.getSession().setAttribute("ProgressListener", listener);
...Now create another servlet that will retrieve the ProgressListenerImpl, get the percent complete and write it back (how you actually write it back is up to you, could be text, an XML file, a JSON object, up to you):
ProgressListenerImpl listener = (ProgressListenerImpl) request.getSession().getAttribute("ProgressListener");
response.getWriter().println("" + listener.getPercentComplete());
...Then your XMLHttpRequest object will call this second servlet and read the string returned as the percent complete.

%> i have been trying to use this code but i can't understand the code. is String folder = "07ics01/jsp" the folder where i intend to save the page on the server? because when i do that i get an exception like
java.io.FileNotFoundException: 07ics01/jsp/C:\Documents and Settings\s9sharma\Desktop\tt\commons-digester-1.8\commons-digester-1.8.jar (No such file or directory) where C:\Documents and Settings\s9sharma\Desktop\tt\commons-digester-1.8\commons-digester-1.8.jar is the file i am trying to upload to the directory 07ics01/jsp which is a unix directory.
Can anyone please help..

So you've copypasted this code from somwhere and are expecting our support on the code, instead of the author's support? That's sad.
I recommend you to look to the Apache Commons FileUpload API [1]. Then you don't need to write (or copypaste) a multipart parser yourself. Putting business logic in JSP files is also bad practice by the way. Use Java classes for it instead (Servlets, Filters, Beans, Utilityclasses, etc).
[1] http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/
To understand the actual code, it might help a lot to first read and understand the HTML spec about multipart request data and read the API documentations of the Java classes involved, e.g. the java.io API.

MAT error: 0xHEX is used a class and object...

Hi there,
playing around some more with MAT I ran into the following error with some of my dumps. All were taken on 1.5 SUN JVMs (running on either Solaris or Linux).
org.eclipse.mat.snapshot.SnapshotException: Error: 0x8d776450 is used as class and object simultaneously. Are you using a beta DLL for Sun JDK 1.4.2 to write the heap dump?

Since the suggested problem (usage of JDK 1.4.2) is not the case: What else can I do to find out what is going on? Do I need any special switches for jmap? The dumps all were taken with the same command:
jmap -heap:format=b <pid>
Still, some work, some do not. Any suggestions?
bye, Michael

Hi Michael,
this smells like a bug. The easiest way again is to have a look at the dump. If you zip it, it should become smaller. I could also provide upload space. Right now, I am at the J1 in San Francisco so it might not be as easy for me to fix this.

Using List Class in java.awt / java.util ?

have a program that:
import java.util.*;
List list = new LinkedList();
list = new ArrayList();
... read a file and add elements to array
use a static setter
StaticGettersSetters.setArray(list);
next program:
import java.awt.*;
public static java.util.List queryArray =
StaticGettersSetters.getArray();
If I don't define queryArray with the package and class, the compiler
gives an error that the List class in java.awt is invalid for queryArray.
If I import the util package, import java.util.*; , the compiler
gives an error that the list class is ambiguous.
Question:
If you using a class that exists in multiple packages, is the above declaration of queryArray the only way to declare it ?
Just curious...
Thanks for your help,
YAM-SSM

So what you have to do is explicitly tell the compiler which one you really want by spelling out the fully-resolved class name:
import java.awt.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
public class ClashTest
    public static void main(String [] args)
        java.util.Date today    = new java.util.Date();
        java.util.List argsList = Arrays.asList(args);
        System.out.println(today);
        System.out.println(argsList);
}No problems here. - MOD

Creating a triangle using polygon class problem, URGENT??

Hi i am creating a triangle using polygon class which will eventually be used in a game where by a user clicks on the screen and triangles appear.
class MainWindow extends Frame
     private Polygon[] m_polyTriangleArr;
                   MainWindow()
                          m_nTrianglesToDraw = 0;
         m_nTrianglesDrawn = 0;
                         m_polyTriangleArr = new Polygon[15];
                         addMouseListener(new MouseCatcher() );
        setVisible(true);
                     class MouseCatcher extends MouseAdapter
                         public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt)
              Point ptMouse = new Point();
              ptMouse = evt.getPoint();
            if(m_nTrianglesDrawn < m_nTrianglesToDraw)
                            int npoints = 3;
                    m_polyTriangleArr[m_nTrianglesDrawn]
                  = new Polygon( ptMouse[].x, ptMouse[].y, npoints);
}When i compile my code i get the following error message:
Class Expected
')' expectedThe two error messages are refering to the section new Polygon(....)
line. Please help

Cannot find symbol constructor Polygon(int, int, int)
Can some one tell me where this needs to go and what i should generally
look like pleaseI don't think it is a good idea to try and add the constructor that the compiler
can't find. Instead you should use the constructor that already exists
in the Polygon class: ie the one that looks like Polygon(int[], int[], int).
But this requires you to pass two int arrays and not two ints as you
are doing at the moment. As you have seen, evt.getPoint() only supplies
you with a single pair of ints: the x- and y-coordinates of where the mouse
button was pressed.
And this is the root of the problem. To draw a triangle you need three
points. From these three points you can build up two arrays: one containing
the x-coordinates and one containing the y-coordinates. It is these two
arrays that will be used as the first two arguments to the Polygon constructor.
So your task is to figure out how you can respond to mouse presses
correctly, and only try and add a new triangle when you have all three of its
vertices.
[Edit] This assumes that you expect the user to specify all three vertices of the
triangle. If this isn't the case, say what you do expect.
