FlashPlayer.setVariable

[meester]

I don't know if it's a bug.
But I did have difficulties finding out what was wrong
I tried to transfer the recordcount of a query to the Flashplayer like this.

totaal = rs.RecordCount;
trace(totaal);
FlashPlayer.setVariable("totaal",totaal)

But In Flash, the textfield containing the variable totaal stayed empty
Seems like you can only transfer strings as a variable
So the code should look like that

totaal = new String(rs.RecordCount);
trace(totaal);
pla.setVariable("totaal",totaal)

Maybe this can be helpful for someone
