Example
The following example illustrates the process of specifying a replacement function for the
method in a simple chat application.
onConnect
After creating the XMLSocket object using the constructor method, the script defines the
custom function to be executed when the onConnect event handler is invoked. The function
controls the screen to which users are taken, depending on whether a connection is
successfully established. If the connection is successfully made, users are taken to the main
chat screen on the frame labeled
screen with troubleshooting information on the frame labeled
var socket:XMLSocket = new XMLSocket();
socket.onConnect = function (success) {
if (success) {
gotoAndPlay("startChat");
} else {
gotoAndStop("connectionFailed");
}
}
Finally, the connection is initiated. If
to the frame labeled
connectionFailed
returns , the SWF file jumps to a frame labeled
true
"Please wait" screen. The SWF file remains on the
handler is invoked, which happens at some point in the future depending on
