Application freeze ?

[hackmetal]

Hello =)

I've got a little question.
Do you know if it is "normal" that when my app communicate with the externalInterface, it freezes ?

example when I run a shell or I upload on a ftp :

ftp.setEventHandler("onUpload", onupload);

private function onupload(percent){
sortie.text +=percent;
}

all works properly but during the upload, the application freeze, and the sortie.text is updated only when upload has finished...

is there any solution to that ?
Thank's a lot !! =)

Yes, because upload is running in block mode. You can try the following code

private function onupload(percent){
    if (!Global.processMsg()) return;
    sortie.text +=percent;
}

I seem to have the same problem, while uploading the file the program freezes. The above code doesn't fix that.

uploadFile = function(){
	var f = "Alle files(*.*)|*.*|";
	var res = Dialogs.fileOpen(f, "", "", false);
	var inet = new Inet;
		
	if(res != false){
		f = new File(res);
			
		var ftp = inet.openFtp("ftp server", "port", "username", "password");
			
		ftp.connect();
		ftp.currentDir = "/kenney";
		
		ftp.setEventHandler("onUpload", onupload);
		
		ftp.onupload = function(percent){
			if (!Global.processMsg()) return;
			FlashPlayer.setVariable("percent", percent);
			FlashPlayer.setVariable("percent_show", percent + "%");
			return true;
		}
		
		ftp.upload(f.name, res);
		
		ftp.close();
	}
}

Does "ftp.setEventHandler("onUpload", ftp.onupload);" work?

Nope, application still freezes until file is uploaded.

Is it actionscript or ffish script?

If the former, the code should be

ftp.setEventHandler("onUpload", ftp.onupload);
		
		ftp.onupload = function(_percent){
			if (!Global.processMsg()) return false;
			percent.text = _percent;
			percent_show.text  = _percent + "%";
			return true;
		}

otherwise the code should be

// ftp.setEventHandler("onUpload", onupload);
		
		ftp.onUpload = function(percent){
			if (!processMsg()) return false;
			FlashPlayer.setVariable("percent", percent);
			FlashPlayer.setVariable("percent_show", percent + "%");
			return true;
		}

Yeah, it was supposed to show up in Flash. The last code worked Thanks!
