If you’re coming to the Phoenix Flash Platform User Group meeting tonight (and I hope you are!) or you are there now, or maybe you heard about how cool it was then these things might be helpful for you.
The two tools we’ll be talking about are RobotLegs and Swiz. Here are the links to their respective locations on the interweb.
If you’re playing along then you might want to download the projects I’ll be demoing. Please keep in mind that these projects attempt to demonstrate how these tools work; NOT NECESSARILY BEST PRACTICES. They are only meant to give you a basic understanding of the principals.
If you just want to download the .swc files (which are included in the projects as necessary) then you can grab them here.
Swiz 0.6.4 (for Flex 3)
And if you want to “borrow” my Facebook App key and secret you can use these values (they are going to get changed after tonight and it’s a sandbox app anyway so you won’t be able to do anything fun with it anyway).
API Key: abcdefghijlkmnopqrstuvwxyz
Secret: nowiknowmyabcsnexttimewontyousingwithme
Lastly, if you care to follow along with my slides you can download those here. You probably won’t get much without me standing in front of them being awesome, but you are welcome to them if you want ‘em.
Hello, am trying to get a hold of some one on the flash facebook api project and have email everyone to notify about a big evil bug in the api preventing one from attach media to a Stream.Publish post, so the only solution is to call it manually width javascript and ExternallCall instead witch for a noob like me is a pain:
Pleas if you see this comment can you redirect me to some one working on the project?
Simpley put:
var obj:Object = {
name:’Attachment name’,
href:’http://url/’,
caption:”Attachment caption”,
description:”Attachment description”,
media: [{type:'image', src:'http://src.jpg', href:'http://url/'}]
};
fldConnect.callMethod(“streamPublish”,’Message’,obj);
Will send an object to facebook insted of an array width the media, and facebook will complain that “media” is not an array
same thing addressed here : http://code.google.com/p/facebook-actionscript-api/issues/detail?id=100
and here : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/583480
Please, please help me get in contact width some one, cause i relay like to keep using this api!
Thanks
That certainly is a pain-in-the-ass bug. I’m afraid I don’t have much to do with the API any more. I’ll send your concerns onto what contacts I have but I don’t know how much faster they will respond then I will. If I have time I will look into it myself. I suspect that it could be a very easy thing to fix. But that whole “finding time” thing could be an issue. I just don’t have much of it to go around any more!
