issues with local SharedObject

[Vijay Khambalkar]

Hi all,

I am facing issues with local SharedObject. I have code like this

 

loginDetails = SharedObject.getLocal("loginDetails");

var voUser:UserVO;

loginDetails.data.loginDetails = voUser;

 

I am storing the UserVO object into the data property of SharedObject. But when I tried it to get it back from the property in the following way

 

var newVOUser:UserVO = UserVO(loginDetails.data.loginDetails);

 

Its giving me the typecasting error. Why? any workaround to this problem?

 

Thanks in advance

Did you try this one
var newVOUser:UserVO = loginDetails.data.loginDetails as UserVO;

Hi,

If you try to serialize a custom-class-instance to SharedObject, it is serialized as AMF. Type information is lost so while retrieving the object it is returned as Anonymous Object. To allow SharedObject return object as instance of a class, you need to register the class-alias using flash.net.registerClassAlias (..).  This API was known as Object.registerClass (..) in AS2.

registerClassAlias (..) - http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/langref/flash/net/package.html#registerClassAlias()


I searched to see if someone has used before writing some code, I found an entry on Tushar's blog:-

Thanks alot, It solved my problem, registerClassAlias(aliasName,
class) Where aliasName is the object where we are holding this
property. :)
