to generate a result for getVersion() in a swf loaded into a parent swf via loadclip(), use getVersion() in the parent and set a variable there, then call this var from your child swf if you need it.
Couldn’t get this to work any other way; tried calling the function directly from the child, but couldn’t make it happen…

Do a “make distclean” and try again.
okay, this one’s bitten my ass twice now, so it gets documented. Default install of RFCC - ASP, with mySQL, Crystal Reports, Java, yadda yadda.
Here’s what you’ll have to deal with.
1. when you try to run reports you’ll get an ASP error on the client - seems to be because of the Response.Expires = 0 in AlwaysRequiredSteps.asp. You will need to turn on Buffering in IIS to avoid having this error hang the reports.
2. ActiveX won’t install on clients if you have any sort of half-decent security set up for IE. If so, get the file directly from the server and install on client system manually (npviewer.exe).
3. If you’re not using IE, the reports page will be pretty much blank (just a little red X). There is an ASP file that detects non-IE browsers (SmartViewerActiveX.asp) and so will use the Java viewer instead of ActiveX; Crystal Reports is looking for ReportViewer.jar. However, the default install of RFCC doesn’t install the Java viewer, you’ll need to go out on the web and track one down. Brilliant. :o(
After you’ve jumped through these hoops, it seems to work okay.
[edit 2005-11-22] one other little thing - the ipView app seems to be playing up. WallboardDriver.exe loads with RFCC, and if I subscribe any clients via their IP address in the admin - I get DrWatson errors on the RFCC server as frequently as ONCE EVERY 5 SECONDS! On top of that, WallboardDriver.exe will consume memory until eventually the server locks up - in as little as 5 hours. Unsubscribing all listeners from Wallboard fixed the issue - but that means that it’s useless! Sigh. Also - it seems pretty much impossible to turn off WallboardDriver.exe - it’s not started via startup items, it’s not listed as a service, and it won’t shut down via Task Manager. So - the only way I can keep my RPCC server running is to have no-one use Wallboard. Again.. Brilliant.
painful stuff… trying to create a row of buttons, add eventListeners to them all, and pass the ‘release’ event to a single function (rather than one function per button). Because I have to use Delegate.create, it’s difficult to add arguments - and then also make sure that the removeEventListener also works. :oP
I’m SURE there are more efficient ways to do all this - and I don’t enjoy this MVC stuff at all when it results in this level of convolution. Makes me want to get back into the Flash IDE and stay on _root…
My starting point for this code came from paulspitzer.com. His suggestion of using arguments.caller as a ’shortcut’ in the removeEventListener works well - but only for the button that actually called the function… however, using this idea, I did find a way to pass button movieclip variables into the function. This means I can now add listeners to multiple buttons, pass arguments, and remove the listeners, with a fairly small amount of code.
Still seems like spaghetti though.
