[Ming-dev] Gradient and Fills: internal Ming changes

[Klaus R. <kla...@rz...>]

Hi Ming-users and -devs,

in order to implement new Flash 8 features i poked around in FillStyle and 
Gradient code. 

Until now there were some issues:

1.) If someone used 

SWFShape_set[Right | Left]FillStyle(SWFShape shape, SWFFillStyle fill) 

without adding a fill with one of the following methods

SWFShape_addSolidFillStyle(SWFShape shape, byte r, byte g, byte b, byte a);
SWFShape_addGradientFillStyle(SWFShape shape, SWFGradient gradient, byte 
flags);
SWFShape_addBitmapFillStyle(SWFShape shape, SWFBitmap bitmap, byte flags)

nothing happend. This is not very intuitive because SWFFillStyles can be 
created by the user directly. Using setLeft/RightFillStyle is now sufficient. 
The old Interface still works.

2.) Beside SWFFillStyle there is a second Class/Object for fills available: 
SWFFill. SWFFill wraps SWFFillStyle and allows the user to play with the 
FillMatrix. That is nice in theory but for gradients it was mostly guessing 
the apropriate matrix.
Gradients are internaly (by the player / renderer) represented as a 32768 x 
32768 gradient square. This square has to be mapped by the user to its 
destination object by defining the scale factor and the centerpoint (measured 
in TWIPS).
I changed Ming's behavior to take the shape bounds and calculate the 
apropriate matrix. I also deprecated SWFFIll, since having 2 Fill objects is 
confusing. The next step is to make the fill matrix accessible to users 
again. But not sure yet how to to that in a useable way.

Ideas, suggestions, comments, vetos ? 
	Klaus

[Ming-dev] compose several exist .swf to a new .swf file

[<no...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I have to do this job by compose several exist .swf file (such as face.swf,
hair.swf, clothes.swf, background.swf, etc) to a new one (eg. avatar.swf). I
compiled a latest Ming(0.40 beta4), could some one tell me how to use the
class "SWFPrebuiltClip"? I've STFW :) many many thanks.

by the way, the php_ming.dll within php-4.4.6-Win32.zip seems a little out
of date (version 0.3 beta1), how can I compile a php_ming.dll myself?

maybe too much question :)

best regards,

[Ming-dev] recorded voice streaming

[Majid J. F. <maj...@gm...>]

are there any methods available for uploading voice recorded from the
user in Ming?

Re: [Ming-dev] How to compile Ming on Windows ?

[DepotNet <dep...@fr...>]

I put the 'libungif4.dll' in my PHP folder and the 'php_ming.dll' in the
php/ext directory.

When I restart Apache, I still get the same error message :=20
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library =
'C:/Development
Applications/wamp/php/ext/php_ming.dll' - Specified Module not found.
 in Unknown on line 0

So I decided to try to copy the 'libungif4.dll' in C:\windows\system32.
I restarted Apache, and ... it's working !!!
The version displayed in phpinfo() is '0.4.0-beta' (not 'beta 4' like on
linux systems).

So maybe I'll add my PHP directory to the path. I don't like to drop DLL
files in my 'System32'

Thanks once again to Mr Kromann ;-)

Viol=E1,

You can download the missing file here
http://kromann.info/PHP-Extra/libungif4.dll. Place it in your PHP folder =
or
somewhere in the path.

Works fine here. What about adding a testcase under test/actionscript ?

Hi Frank !

I know your site (very usefull !!!) and downloaded the last php_ming =
version
for PHP 5.2.x, but as I copy it into the php/ext directory and restart
Apache, I got an error message in logs files saying that it can't load
php_ming.dll (not found !!!)
I successfully compile Ming 0.4 beta 4 on my Linux Server but now I wish =
to
the same version for Windows. It's my development environment.

You need bison and flex installed on your system (it's part of CygWin).

The Ming sources include project files to compile with Visual Studio.

If you just want the latest version you can donload it from my site at
http://kromann.info/php.php. The site is not currently updated, but I =
can
do that when I get home tonight.

[Ming-dev] as compiler bug

[Albrecht K. <kl...@ak...>]

Hi folks,

in current CVS the AS code "trace(e);"
is compiled to:

    SWFACTION_PUSH
     [000]   Double: 0
    SWFACTION_TRACE
    SWFACTION_END


I'd rather expect something like this:

    SWFACTION_CONSTANTPOOL
     [000] d
    SWFACTION_PUSH
     [000]   Constant: 0 "e"
    SWFACTION_GETVARIABLE
    SWFACTION_TRACE
    SWFACTION_END


Perhaps 'e' is a misleaded interpretation of e like a numerical EXPONENT?

Albrecht
