Communicating with other Flash Player and AIR instances
package
{
import flash.net.LocalConnection;
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class ServerLC extends Sprite
{
public function ServerLC()
{
var lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
lc.client = new CustomClient1();
try
{
lc.connect("conn1");
}
catch (error:Error)
{
trace("error:: already connected");
}
}
}
}
This code first creates a LocalConnection object named lc and sets the client property to an object, clientObject.
When another application calls a method in this LocalConnection instance, the runtime looks for that method in the
clientObject object.
If you already have a connection with the specified name, an Argument Error exception is thrown, indicating that the
connection attempt failed because the object is already connected.
Whenever a Flash Player instance connects to this SWF file and tries to invoke any method for the specified local
connection, the request is sent to the class specified by the client property, which is set to the CustomClient1 class:
package
{
import flash.events.*;
import flash.system.fscommand;
import flash.utils.Timer;
public class CustomClient1 extends Object
{
public function doMessage(value:String = ""):void
{
trace(value);
}
public function doQuit():void
{
trace("quitting in 5 seconds");
this.close();
var quitTimer:Timer = new Timer(5000, 1);
quitTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, closeHandler);
}
public function closeHandler(event:TimerEvent):void
{
fscommand("quit");
}
}
}
