How is this a mistake? THE PROJECT WORKED FINE IN FLASH CS5!!!

HI Sudeshna,

Thank for the code, this code works fine in CS6, it identical to the code I use in the project. I think the problem is more in how Flash CS6 loads external files while running local in 'Test Movie'. I already found out that CS6 has a different way to address relative URL's(?) Has that something to do with the security sandbox or...?

Hi ,

 

Can you share the project or just the code snippet with us so that we could investigate and get back to you on this.

 

Ideally what you are doing is correct -

 

We need to call Loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE , function(event:Event):void

 

I tried this with a small snippet in Flash CS6 and it got called as expected.

 

var url:String = "http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/images/image2.jpg";

var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

var loader:Loader = new Loader();

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loader_complete);

loader.load(urlRequest);

addChild(loader);

 

function loader_complete(evt:Event):void {

    var target_mc:Loader = evt.currentTarget.loader as Loader;

    target_mc.x = (stage.stageWidth - target_mc.width) / 2;

    target_mc.y = (stage.stageHeight - target_mc.height) / 2;

}

The situation when the COMPLETE event wouldn't be called is when we give an incorrect urlRequest.

 

Thanks and regards,

I should think so. It shows that not the Flash Player version itself is leading in a Flash project to work. I thought that publishing the project for Flash Player 10 should make all assets work together cause it's the same Flash Player version right? ...wrong

I don't mind if there is a difference between CS5 or CS6 how actionscript is interpreted. As long as you can choose for one of the two versions in Flash CS6. For now I continue working in CS5 because of the current projects I'm working on are all orginaly CS5. I don't want to lose time investigating mysterious bugs in Flash CS6.
