In addition to these specific onStatus methods, Flash also provides a super function called
, which serves as a secondary error message handler. If an instance of the
System.onStatus
LocalConnection, NetStream, or SharedObject class passes an information object with a level
property of "error", but you have not defined an onStatus function for that particular
instance, then Flash uses the function you define for
The Camera and Microphone classes also have
information objects with a level property of "error". Therefore,
called if you don't specify a function for these handlers.
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 6
Parameters
infoObject:Object
Example
The following example shows how to create a System.onStatus function to process
information objects when a class-specific onStatus function does not exist:
// Create generic function
System.onStatus = function(genericError:Object){
// Your script would do something more meaningful here
trace("An error has occurred. Please try again.");
}
The following example shows how to create an onStatus function for an instance of the
NetStream class:
// Create function for NetStream object
videoStream_ns.onStatus = function(infoObject:Object) {
if (infoObject.code == "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound") {
trace("Could not find video file.");
}
}
