SharedObject class 125
Example
The following example creates a shared object named foo in the function onProcessCmd. The
function is passed a parameter,
cmd, that is assigned to a property in the shared object.
function onProcessCmd(cmd){
// Insert code here.
var shObj = SharedObject.get("foo", true);
propName = cmd.name;
shObj.getProperty (propName, cmd.newAddress);
}
The following example uses a proxied shared object. A proxied shared object resides on a
server or in an application instance (called master) that is different than the server or
application instance that the client connects to (called proxy). When the client connects to the
proxy and gets a remote shared object, the proxy connects to the master and gives the client a
reference to this shared object. The following code is in the main.asc file:
application.appStart = function() {
nc = new NetConnection();
nc.connect("rtmp://" + master_server + "/" + master_instance);
proxySO = SharedObject.get("myProxy",true,nc);
// Now, whenever the client asks for a persistent
// shared object called myProxy they will receive myProxy
// shared object from the master_server/master_instance.
};
SharedObject.getProperty()
