File browse in flex

You can also show FLEX programmatically:. If you need tvOS support, seek out one of these forks. Here is one such fork. Once a view is selected, you can tap on the info bar below the toolbar to present more details about the view.

From there, you can modify properties and call methods. Settings allow you to adjust what kind of response bodies get cached and the maximum size limit of the response cache. You can choose to have network debugging enabled automatically on app launch. This setting is persisted across launches. FLEX queries malloc for all the live allocated memory blocks and searches for ones that look like objects. You can see everything from here. If you get your hands on an arbitrary address, you can try explore the object at that address, and FLEX will open it if it can verify the address points to a valid object.

If FLEX isn't sure, it'll warn you and refuse to dereference the pointer. If you know better, however, you can choose to explore it anyway by choosing "Unsafe Explore". Default keyboard shortcuts allow you to activate the FLEX tools, scroll with the arrow keys, and close modals using the escape key. View the file system within your app's bundle or sandbox container. The space available for use at this File location, in bytes.

If the File object references a directory, spaceAvailable indicates the space in the directory that files can use. If the File object references a file, spaceAvailable indicates the space into which the file could grow. If the file location does not exist, spaceAvailable is set to 0.

If the File object references a symbolic link, spaceAvailable indicates the space available at the location the symbolic link points to. Typically the space available for a directory or file is the same as the space available on the volume containing the directory or file. However, space available can take into account quotas and per-directory limits. Adding a file or directory to a volume generally requires more space than the actual size of the file or the size of the contents of the directory.

For example, the operating system may require more space to store index information. Or the disk sectors required may use additional space. Also, available space changes dynamically. So, you cannot expect to allocate all of the reported space for file storage. The default encoding used by the host operating system. Possible values include "windows" "shift-jis" , "cn-gb" , "iso" , and others.

For a complete list, see Supported Character Sets. The URL for this file path. If this is a reference to a path in the application storage directory, the URL scheme is "app-storage" ; if it is a reference to a path in the application directory, the URL scheme is "app" ; otherwise the scheme is "file".

The user's directory. The userDirectory property provides a way to reference the user directory that works across platforms. If you set the nativePath or url property of a File object directly, it will only work on the platform for which that path is valid.

If an operating system does not support a user directory, a suitable directory in the file system is used instead. The constructor function for the File class. If you pass a path argument, the File object points to the specified path, and the nativePath property and and url property are set to reflect that path. Although you can pass a path argument to specify a file path, consider whether doing so may result in platform-specific code.

You can then use the resolvePath method to get a path relative to these directories. For example, the following code sets up a File object to point to the settings.

A URL uses the file:, app:, or app-storage: scheme prefixes. However, if the valid URL prefixes are omitted, the path string is treated like a native path and no decoding takes place. You must take this behavior into consideration when validating paths derived from potentially untrusted sources. If you simply validate the input string, URL decoding may allow an attacker to bypass your validation checks. Always validate the final path of the instantiated File object:. The following are valid values for the path parameter using URL notation:.

The app and app-storage URL schemes are useful because they can point to a valid file on all file systems. However, in the other two examples, which use the file URL scheme to point to the user's desktop directory, it would be better to pass no path argument to the File constructor and then assign File.

If you specify a native path, on Windows you can use either the backslash character or the forward slash character as the path separator in this argument; on Mac OS and Linux, use the forward slash. The following are valid values for the path parameter using native path notation:. However, for these two examples, you should pass no path argument to the File constructor and then assign File. Displays a directory chooser dialog box, in which the user can select a directory.

When the user selects the directory, the select event is dispatched. The target property of the select event is the File object pointing to the selected directory. The directory chooser dialog is not always displayed in front of windows that are "owned" by another window windows that have a non-null owner property.

To avoid window ordering issues, hide owned windows before calling this method. Note: On Android devices, browseForDirectory is not supported. The File object dispatches a cancel event immediately. Parameters title : String — The string that is displayed in the title bar of the dialog box. Displays the Open File dialog box, in which the user can select a file to open.

When the user selects the file, the select event is dispatched. The target property of the select event is the File object pointing to the selected file. The Open File dialog is not always displayed in front of windows that are "owned" by another window windows that have a non-null owner property. Note: On Android devices, the file dialog title cannot be set.

The title parameter is ignored. If you omit this parameter, all files are displayed. For more information, see the FileFilter class.

Displays the Open File dialog box, in which the user can select one or more files to open. When the user selects the files, the selectMultiple event is dispatched. The target property of the select event is this File object. Unlike browseForOpen , with the browseForOpenMultiple method, this File object is not updated to reference any of the chosen files.

Instead, the resulting selectMultiple event contains an array of the chosen files. Displays the Save File dialog box, in which the user can select a file destination. The target property of the select event is the File object pointing to the selected Save destination. The Save File dialog is not always displayed in front of windows that are "owned" by another window windows that have a non-null owner property. Canonicalizes the File path. If the File object represents an existing file or directory, canonicalization adjusts the path so that it matches the case of the actual file or directory name.

If the File object is a symbolic link, canonicalization adjusts the path so that it matches the file or directory that the link points to, regardless of whether the file or directory that is pointed to exists. On case sensitive file systems such as Linux , when multiple files exist with names differing only in case, the canonicalize method adjusts the path to match the first file found in an order determined by the file system. Returns a copy of this File object.

Event registrations are not copied. Note: This method does not copy the file itself. It simply makes a copy of the instance of the ActionScript File object. To copy a file, use the copyTo method. Copies the file or directory at the location specified by this File object to the location specified by the newLocation parameter. The copy process creates any required parent directories if possible. When overwriting files using copyTo , the file attributes are also overwritten.

Parameters newLocation : FileReference — The target location of the new file. Note that this File object specifies the resulting copied file or directory, not the path to the containing directory. If true , the operation overwrites existing file or directory of the same name. Begins copying the file or directory at the location specified by this File object to the location specified by the destination parameter.

Upon completion, either a complete event successful or an ioError event unsuccessful is dispatched.

If true , the operation overwrites any existing file or directory of the same name. Creates the specified directory and any necessary parent directories. If the directory already exists, no action is taken. Returns a reference to a new temporary directory. This is a new directory in the system's temporary directory path. This method lets you identify a new, unique directory, without having to query the system to see that the directory is new and unique.

You may want to delete the temporary directory before closing the application, since on some devices it is not deleted automatically.

Returns a reference to a new temporary file. This is a new file in the system's temporary directory path. This method lets you identify a new, unique file, without having to query the system to see that the file is new and unique.

You may want to delete the temporary file before closing the application, since it is not deleted automatically. Deletes the directory.

If this File is actually a symbolic link to a directory, then the link, and not the directory, is removed. When false , if the directory contains files or directories, a call to this method throws an exception. Deletes the directory asynchronously. When false , if the directory contains files or directories, the File object dispatches an ioError event. Deletes the file. If this File is actually a symbolic link, then the link, not the target file, is removed.

Deletes the file asynchronously. Returns an array of File objects corresponding to files and directories in the directory represented by this File object. This method does not explore the contents of subdirectories. Asynchronously retrieves an array of File objects corresponding to the contents of the directory represented by this File object. Finds the relative path between two File paths. The relative path is the list of components that can be appended to resolved against this reference in order to locate the second parameter reference.

Optionally, relative paths may include ".. Parameters ref : FileReference — A File object against which the path is given. Returns an array of File objects, listing the file system root directories.

For example, on Windows this is a list of volumes such as the C: drive and the D: drive. An empty drive, such as a CD or DVD drive in which no disc is inserted, is not included in this array.
