Hi Ed,

I'm trying to pass a property parameter to a LoadVars() object on the
ser side w/o much luck, and even if I strong-arm the return, I get
undefined. The ser-side trace shows that it's getting the property
out of the text file ok, but when I return it to the client, nada.
Any ideas?

Here's the ser-side code:

//SS
application.onAppStart = function() {
trace(this.name+" has been re-loaded");
};
application.onConnect = function(client) {
this.acceptConnection(client);
client.loadit = function(bwget) {
var loadBW = new LoadVars();
loadBW.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
var bwNow=loadBW.dsl;
trace(bwget);<==I get the right name here:
trace(bwNow);<==I get the correct data from the text file here
return bwNow; <==I get undefined on the client side.
} else {
trace("loading Problem");
}
};
loadBW.load("http://localhost/bw/bw.txt");

-----
//CS
var rtmpNow:String;
rtmpNow = "rtmp://192.168.0.11/loader/bw";
//rtmpNow="rtmp:/loader/bw";
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.onStatus = function(info) {
if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") {
lighton_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
nc.call("loadit", showBW, dsl);
}
};
nc.connect(rtmpNow);
var dsl:String = "dsl";
var showBW:Object = new Object();
showBW.onResult = function(bwNow) {
bw_txt.text = bwNow;
};


Thanks,
Bill

P.S. Don't sweat getting miffed with this group. We get miffed with
each other all the time.

Just a small guess, but shouldn't return bwNow; be outside of the onLoad =
function?! Like this:


client.loadit =3D function(bwget) {
..
loadBW.onLoad =3D function(success) {
.. =20
}
return...
}

Oh, you know what, that's not quite right either.  onLoad is called
asyncrhonously.  So even if you move the return statement out of the
onLoad, the problem is that it may not have been loaded by the time you
try to return it from your loadit() function.

In fact, if you try doing the load in loadit(), you will not be able to
return the value immediately from the same method.  One possible
solution is to call a method on the client when the onLoad() is called.

Something like this:

client.loadit =3D function(bwget)
{
var loadBW =3D new LoadVars();
loadBW.client =3D this;
loadBW.onLoad =3D function(success)
{
this.client.returnValToClient(this.dsl); //
returnValToClient needs to be defined on the client-side
}
loadBW.load("http://localhost/bw/bw.txt");
}

However, if you want to initiate the load from within loadit(), there is
no way to reliably return the loaded value in the same function.

Naicu,

That's the right track,  and I believe that I'm going to have stick
some functions in there in the same scope so that I pull out the
stuff I need. Thanks, Naicu!

Ed,

Ok, thanks. After I fiddled around with what Naciu suggested, I was
still flummoxed by getting the return right. Let me go back and try
again.

Thanks a million,
Bill

Yes, Ed is totally right! I missed the asyncrhonous issue when I looked a=

The return statement is inside the onLoad function.  Try this

You mean you were able to get the return value by simply moving the
