Hello,

I have encountered the same problem as Razvan. What it the solution/workaround ?
Am I doing something wrong, because from FB it works, but when calling the RIATest with “In browser, Local loader” option it returns this error.

Thank’s

Hello,

I have a problem when launching the FlexLoginModules application in RIA Test:

Module Load Error

Error #2035: URL Not Found. URL: com/beauscott/examples/modules/LoginForm.swf

If I run the .swf file separately in Firefox it works. When I try with RIA Test is sending this error indication.

Can you provide some tips to solve this issue?

Thank you!

Nice explanation. I like this approach. I can keep display/views in separate swf by extending Module class and if I have some common code base, which need to be shared among all the views, I can extend ModuleBase and keep all those API’s in it. And possibly have it in memory when the Shell/Application is loaded. I found that pipes framework is a lot easy for this work. You might want to give it a look

[...] I decided to start working on something a little more real world and expansive. My plan was to use Beau Scott’s example and re-write it my own way. That’s how I do a lot of my early learning of anything. I went [...]

Thanks, this article and example were exactly what I needed to make this all come together in my head.

Is there anything special that needs to be done if a loaded Module (using ModuleLoader) is loaded, after which it’s content then loads a class from a swf (that is included in the lib directory of the module that was loaded) that is able to go fullscreen? More specifically (and probably easier to understand):

*Framework app “is” the ModuleLoader
*Framework app loads some module that contains controls
*module reads controls and loads a class that is external to the module(but still in the lib directory).
*Let’s say that control is a video player

In this case, I’m seeing the behavior that the app goes fullscreen, but is blank. To make matters even more confusing, SOMETIMES it works, but there’s no clear pattern as to how & why.

I’m passing allowfullscreen=”true” and wmode=”window” (I’ve toyed around relentlessly with these) to the initial swf that gets injected via SWFObject in the html page.

I’ve also tried using fullScreenRect on the stage to no avail.

have you ever seen anything like this?

hi very good example but one problem

when I unload module this module is not leaving the memory. I have search in google but there are no solutions/workarounds. Your example is not freeing memory too. Do you have any solution?

Hi Beau,

I have a flex site using modules, but I have a problem with the memory. Every time when I unload module this module is not leaving the memory. I have search in google but there are no solutions/workarounds. Your example is not freeing memory too. Do you have any solution?

Thanks.

Hi,

very cool example…

can you explain me this piece of code…i can’t understand the meaning of bindable metadata tag in this context..

/**
* Storage for loggedIn
*/
private var _loggedIn:Boolean = false;

[Bindable('loggedInChanged')]
/**
* Flag indicating the current login status of the user
* @readonly
*/
public function get loggedIn() : Boolean
{
return _loggedIn;
}

public function login(userInfo:UserVO) : void
{
if(userInfo != null && !loggedIn)
{
_currentUser = userInfo;
_loggedIn = true;
dispatchEvent(new Event(‘loggedInChanged’));
dispatchEvent(new Event(‘currentUserChanged’));
dispatchEvent(new UserManagerEvent(UserManagerEvent.LOGIN));
}
}

when you set _loggedIn to true and then dispatch the event you alert that the properties has change value..is it true?but why bindable?

thanks in advance

Regards Lorenzo
