remove external swf completely from memory

[anjemalo1]

Hello:

I have read many many post and I don't find the answer of how to remove completely a swf load external.

Every time I load and unload I see the windows memory task manager and see that the memory increase and don't reduce when remove child.

¿Can you help me please?  thank you.

this is my code:

var oneLoader=new Loader();

bt1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, swf1);

bt2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeMe);

function swf1(e:Event)

{

var oneLoader=new Loader();

addChildAt(oneLoader,1);

oneLoader.load(new URLRequest("swf1.swf"));

}

function removeMe(e:Event)

{

removeChildAt(1);

oneLoader= null;

}

:

var oneLoader=new Loader();

bt1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, swf1);

bt2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeMe);

function swf1(e:Event)

{

var oneLoader=new Loader();

addChildAt(oneLoader,1);

oneLoader.load(new URLRequest("swf1.swf"));

}

function removeMe(e:Event)

{

if(oneLoader){

oneLoader.unloadAndStop();  // if publishing for fp 10+, else must explicitly stop all streams and apply unload().

oneLoader.parent.removeChild(oneLoader);

oneLoader= null;

}

}

Thank you very much.

My swf is a movieclip that make only a fade and stop, then load an still image that you can drag, zoom, etc.

Do you think do I have to stop all streams....?

If yes, how can I do it?

what mean ...fp 10+ ...

many thanks again.

fp 10+ =  flash player 10 or better.

you don't have any streams to stop.  so, if you're publishing for fp 9, you can use oneLoader.unload();

p.s.  please mark helpful/correct responses.

Thank you very much.

I have a last question.

In my external swf I have put a close button with this code:

btclose.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, CloseMe);

function CloseMe(event:MouseEvent) {

    MovieClip(parent.parent).removeMe(event);

}

stop();

In the main movie i have te removeMe function that works perfectly when I close from the main, but not with the close buton of external swf, it seem does not access to the removeMe function, what is wrong here?

function removeMe(e:Event):void

{

    if (oneLoader)

    {

        oneLoader.unloadAndStop();

        // if publishing for fp 10+, else must explicitly stop all streams and apply unload().;

        oneLoader.parent.removeChild(oneLoader);

        oneLoader.unload(); //    ..... I added, I'm use fp 11.

        oneLoader= null;

     }

   }

1.  your external swf code needs to be on that swf's main timeline and

2.  your removeMe() function needs to be on the timeline where oneLoader is created.

Thank you again.

The code are on their right places.

But When I close with the swf button close. The window is closed but not remove from memory.

I have other button on the main movie (for try)  and when I push this: close the swf and remove form memory.

Do you know why I cannot remove from the swf button?

thanks

it makes no difference what's calling removeMe() so you must be doing something wrong or erroneously judging the swf is not removed from memory.
