To be resilient, your application needs to listen for and handle
As you test and run your application, you can also use the Administration Console to troubleshoot various
connection and stream events.
Handle a failed connection
If a connection cannot be made, handle the
objects. You may need to retry connecting to the server's URI, ask the user to reenter a user name or password, or
take some other action.
The event codes to watch for and sample actions to take are as follows:
Event
NetConnection.Connect.Failed
NetConnection.Connect.Rejected
NetConnection.Connect.AppShutDown
Note: Use the SimpleConnectManage sample, SimpleConnectManage.as, written in ActionScript 3.0.
Write client code to handle netStatus events
❖
Create a NetConnection object and connect to the server. Then, write a
detect each event and handle it appropriately for your application, for example:
public function netStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void
{
trace("connected is: " + nc.connected );
trace("event.info.level: " + event.info.level);
trace("event.info.code: " + event.info.code);
switch (event.info.code)
{
...
case "NetConnection.Connect.Rejected":
trace ("Oops! the connection was rejected");
// try to connect again
break;
case "NetConnection.Connect.Failed":
trace("The server may be down or unreachable");
break;
case "NetConnection.Connect.AppShutDown":
trace("The application is shutting down");
// this method disconnects all stream objects
nc.close();
break;
...
}
}
Handle a stream not found
If a stream your application attempts to play is not found, a
