Hi, I'm still having issues after using the new release.

I'm trying to send over a byte array of an image from Flash over SFS to iOS to display.

I've tested it with a Flash client and it correctly renders the image. It crashes in iOS.

Code: Select all

can you send us that same test image, so that we can test?
post a link to it if it's not too big

Sure, here it is: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/276096/labs_savewebcam.zip

I've given the link to an experiment I was trying out: To send a series of images to the iPhone. This one is an initial test of sending bytearray between 2 flash instances.

Thanks, we'll check it out asap

Hi geraldyeo,

We tested 100 K, 1 MB, 4 MB, 5 MB, 9 MB image files send from iPhone to Server, Server to iPhone, both with simulator and with device. We displayed the images send from the Server in he iPhone; Calculated the MD5 both on Server and on iPhone. No problem or crash happened during those tests.

Please make sure that

You are using the latest fixed API (http://smartfoxserver.com/2X/quickUpdat ... 010211.zip)
If it is the correct API, lines 82:85 should be:

Code: Select all

//handle Compression
if (_pendingPacket.header.compressed) {
    _pendingPacket.buffer =
           [NSMutableData dataWithData:[_pendingPacket.buffer zlibInflate]];
}


if you are the latest API but still having problems, please send me the:

1) Your server source code
2) Your iPhone XCode project
3) Used test files etc.
4) Your SFS2X version.

Thanks,

Hi cemuzunlar,

I'm using the latest update. Maybe I'm doing something wrong somewhere. I'll send over the files so that you can have a look.

Thanks!

Hi cemuzunlar,

1) Not using custom server source code, using the game room functionality
2) Flash & iOS source <http://dl.dropbox.com/u/276096/iOS_fl_webcam.zip>
3) No test files, using webcam stream from Flash client
4) 2.0.0-RC1b

Let me know where I'm going wrong, and I'll try to fix it.

Gerald

I don't know if it makes much sense. SFS is not meant for streaming, but anyways in theory it should work, I agree although the final result might be not so good.
Out of curiosity... do you decode the Flash video on the iphone at runtime?

Hi Lapo,

I know SFS is not meant for streaming, but I want to do a proof of concept on the possibilities. I'm aware that the quality may not be good.

Yes, I'm thinking of decoding the images at runtime on the iPhone. However, in the source files i sent i've not reach that stage yet, because iPhone sim is crashing on me.

geraldyeo, we are currently checking the example source you've sent. Thanks.

We checked your sources. We are pretty sure that you are somehow using the old API.

Because, there is no -lz flag in your Other Linked Flags, and if you were using the new API, you couldn't compile your project successfully without adding it.

So please search and remove all files related to the old SFS2X iPhone API, then download and install the new SFS2X iPhone API and make sure that your project is actually using those files.

Hi cemuzunlar,

I've removed and re-added the SFS2x and TouchXML folder to my project, and added -lxml2 -lz to Other Linker Flags.

It seems that I need to build with Release, because it doesn't crash. Maybe that's what's needed?

Also, in my viewcontroller I've the <ISFSEvents> so that I can capture the objectMessage events " - (void)onObjectMessage:(SFSEvent *)evt", but it isn't triggering. I couldn't find an example in your help documents, so if you could let me know if there is one or if I did something wrongly?

Thanks!

Well, I sort of got it working now. I can see the B64 strings being passed. I'll carry on my experiment and post my findings.

Thanks for all your help guys!
