Flash 9... AS3 error !!

[saif_old]

Hi this is Syeef....
i have a problem with AS3 and SWFKitpro.....

First of all, is AS3 supported by SWFKitpro, if not sorry for this post !

I made a MP3 Player with SWFKitpro and Flash 8 and it works great.
Now as spectrum analyzer is available with Flash 9 AS3, i downloaded the new beta Flash 9 software from adobe ( FLASH 9 preview AS3 public alpha ) and made a spectrum analyzer for my MP3 Player. it too works file. ( as a swf format )

But now i cannot make SWFkitpro to open the dialogbox so that i can open a MP3 file and play it in the exe format.

The codes that i used before while i was using Flash 8 for opening the dialogbox was like this: ( AS2 )

import SWFKit.*;
Open.onPress = function() {
PL = Dialogs.fileOpen("MP3 Files(*.mp3)|*.MP3", "", "", false);
if (PL !== false) {
my_sound.loadSound(PL, false);
my_sound.play()
}
}

Now my new AS3 codes of Flash 9 are like these : ( But i did try Flash 8 codes first, ....it didn't work )

import SWFKit.*;
addEventListener ( 'mouseDown', OPEN)
function OPEN(event:Event) {
PL = Dialogs.fileOpen("MP3 Files(*.mp3)|*.MP3", "", "", false);
if (PL !== false) {
my_sound.load(new URLRequest(PL));
my_sound.play()
}
}

oh yes..... i just found out it doesn't even play songs............

then again, how come SWFkitpro says it supports Flash 9 !!

Please help me out !!

There are some small differences between actionscript2 and actionscript3 wrapper classes. The main difference is that actionscript3 classes have no static methods, so your code should be:

var d = new Dialogs;
PL = d.fileOpen("MP3 Files(*.mp3)|*.MP3", "", "", false);
if (PL !== false) {
...
}
d.Release();

I'm sorry, i did couldn't figure it out....

and i got a bigger problem now,

i'm unable to play mp3 songs with the following AS3 :

var snd = new Sound();
snd.load(new URLRequest("song.mp3"));
snd.play();

it works fine with flash player 9 but swfkit is not responding.

please can i see an example of mp3 playback with flash 9 AS3 and swfkit, and if possible please include a dialog box to open the songs.

thanking you, - syeef.

1. you must add the wrapper classes to the actionscript 3 classpath, the typical path of the wrapper classes is
C:\Program Files\SWFKit Pro 3\Classes 3\SWFKit

2. call the wrapper classes in actionscript 3

import SWFKit.*;
function onClick(obj)
{
var dlg = new Dialogs();
var filename = dlg.fileOpen("MP3 files(*.mp3)|*.mp3|", "mp3");
if (filename)
{
var snd = new Sound();
snd.load(new URLRequest(filename));
snd.play();
}
dlg.Release();
}

btn.addEventListener("click", onClick);
