How to use an external swf as a preloader in Flash

I have a project where I want to use different pre-loaders from time to time so I wanted to know if there was a way I could have my proje开发者_如何学Goct use an external swf for the pre-loader ?


Absolutely, and in fact that's a very common practice.

Your external preloader file just has to instantiate an instance of the Loader class, then load in your payload .swf. While the payload is loading in, you can listen for ProgressEvent.PROGRESS and use that to update some sort of a load bar or whatever. It would look something like this:

package
{
    import flash.display.Loader;
    import flash.display.MovieClip;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
    import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;

    public class Preloader extends MovieClip
    {
        // this loads in your main swf
        public var loader:Loader;

        // this points to the location of your main swf
        public var request:URLRequest;

        // this holds a reference to your main swf once it's been loaded in.
        public var content:MovieClip;

        public function Preloader()
        {
            addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, addedHandler);

            super();
        }

        // it's a good practice to wait for ADDED_TO_STAGE before you start doing stuff, that way you can avoid certain Null Reference Errors
        protected function addedHandler(e:Event):void {
            removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, addedHandler);

            loader = new Loader();
            request = new URLRequest("path/to/your/file.swf");

            loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
            loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, errorHandler);
            loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
        }

        // This will fire when your main swf is loaded in.
        protected function completeHandler(e:Event):void {
            loader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
            loader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, errorHandler);
            loader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);

            trace("Load completed! Now we're going to add the target swf to the timeline:");

            content = MovieClip(loader.content);

            /*
             *      Additional logic can go here to remove your loadbar or etc.
             */ 

        }

        // this will fire if there's a problem with loading in the swf
        protected function errorHandler(e:IOErrorEvent):void {
            trace("Error: the path specified was incorrect. Unable to find that file. Here's the error in full:\n " + e)
        }


        // this will fire constantly while the target swf is being loaded, so you can see how much more you have to load.
        protected function progressHandler(e:ProgressEvent):void {
            var perLoaded:Number = 100* (e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal)
            trace("Percent Loaded: " + perLoaded);

            /*
            *   Additional logic can go here to update your load bar, etc.
            */

        }
    }
}
