Can we modify the AIRShareDemo?
and republish them?

Thanks

this sounds very good. I’ll try that and hopefully all my sorrow will be gone.

Our team is currently working on the first online 3D modeling application based on Papervision3D. The concept is a server-side file management which allows users to store their work and also share it among each other.

As I noticed Adobe SHARE last year I was impressed from the features. I contacted Fang Chang and talked to him about our project and the plans we got on an implementation of Adobe SHARE. Since the project will be mainly free of charge we got permissions do it.

If you are interested in the project itself you can see some preview videos on http://www.g-nero.com

Thanks!

Good point. This is true, the current version is limited to AIR. However, with the release of flash player 9,0,124,0 it should now be possible to change this. The auth header is no longer blacklisted but does require a crossdomain.xml that is setup to allow it. Here is an excerpt from an article on developer connection about it.

“Flash Player will continue to allow any header not on the blacklist to be sent to the host of the SWF, and additional headers will be added to the blacklist as needed. As a result of this new security feature, the HTTP Authorization header, which was added to the blacklist in Flash Player 9,0,115,0, will be removed from the blacklist but will follow the new cross-domain policy file rules.”

So the next step is to put in a request for this change.

I would also be interested in knowing what you’ve used the library for up til now? and what you would use it for if this was opened up?

the source is still only for Adobe AIR, right? Do you know if there is already a Flex/Flash version? The problem with the authorization header - which is only allowed to send via AIR - is really bad and my hope was a modified official release for Flex/Flash.

I agree, the fact that bad customer service either via employees who don’t believe in what they’re selling or through discrimination because they don’t think you have any money is sad. On another occasion when I went shopping for my first new car I remember walking in to the dealership and having a salesperson tell me that they didn’t have a public restroom…. Admittedly I looked really young to be buying a new car, but their “we don’t have a public bathroom” while pushing me out the door attitude towards me cost them a sale.

Anyway, I don’t think we need to get in to it any further. We both know it sucks and for the record I did reward the store that made me feel welcome.

When I was in college, my roommate and I decided to run an experiment. I needed (really, I WANTED) a couple of high end stereo components. So I went to the local specialty electronics store (dressed in jeans and a sweatshirt) and wandered around for 15 minutes while no one offered to help me. Several store clerks were just standing around. My roommate was outside the store watching and laughing at all of this. Then he walks in (slacks and a sweater) and not one, not two, but three clerks practically lunge to help him. He walks them over to me and we buy our equipment. (These days, I would have talked to the manager and then walked out.)

The customer philosophy of the store is apparent by the actions of the employees. Apple made you feel welcome. Sony made you feel like you weren’t trusted. Why would you reward a store that was not interested in you at all???

The as3powncelib requires the as3corelib. Download it at the following URL and add it to your project. It contains the ServiceEvent and probably the “other class”.

Let me know if you have any other issues, i’m happy to help.

Have fun,
