I have a page with two Flash movies. When one (a content application) reaches a particular state (i.e. the user is now logged in), I'd like to completely refresh the other (a menu) to reflect the new overall state of the user's session (i.e. the user is logged in, so now include a "logout" item). The state is actually kept server-side,...
Hi guys, hope you can help me with this question. So, I've been working for a while with Flex, and had the crazy idea to create pure AS project. If I compile a Flex app with the -keep flag, the generated actionscript gets generated. Do you guys know of a way to make it compile, without going trough the code and gluing it all together?...

Are those objects not created until that layer is visible for the first time? I remember something about a creation policy, if this is the case, can I force it to cr...

However, I have some JavaScript functions that are called from within a SWF object sitting on the same page. Is this code run in the same manner as regular JS code, or is it on some separate Flash thread? If it is on a separate thr...
So I have ASP.NET running on the server in IIS7. I think I'm going to use MVC for some static pages and basic dynamic forms - but the majority of the client side is written in Flash/ActionScript. What's the simplest, most succint, most DRY way of building/generating proxies between client and server? Which format should I use? JSON ...
I'm getting increasingly frustrated with Flex's Dictionary (which is really just an array with string indices). Trivial things seem not to be possible, like getting the last element, or even iterating over the sorted container according to keys (the order seems to be arbitrary), and the sort functions seem to make a mess of everything i...
I want to be able to hand delete the intermediate .aso files generated by the Flex mxmlc compiler. Where are they stored? (I know the Flash IDE has a "delete asos" button, but I'm using the FlashDevelop IDE, which doesn't. The reason I want this is so I can play around with the compiler's warning settings on a fairly large project, an...

I am aware that Amazon S3 is usable in Flex via an AIR application ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/186768/can-you-use-amazon-s3-via-flex ) but was curious if the same applied to a browser ( swf ) compilation of Flex source. At http://code.google.com/p/as3awss3lib/ it states that: "It only works in Apollo because of restrictions in...
In a FLEX app, I am trying to "re-dispatch" a custom event. I.e. component1 does dispatchEvnet(event), component2 registers a handler for the event, the only function of the handler being, again, dispatch(event). Finally, component3 listens for the event coming out of component2. What I am trying to do is similar to the concept of "re-th...

It will be impossible for me to get into the Flash IDE and add the version parameter to the ...
