Passing variable from haxe generated swf to parent swf using local connection

[PATurmel]

Just starting to use haxe to see if it will be practical, I will need to pass variables to the parent swf (flash file) from the haxe generated swf.

This is the code I have now

package;


import flash.net.URLVariables;


 
class Test2a
{


 static function main()
 {
 var funanal = function() {
 
 conn.send('analconnect', 'analHere', analstring);
 
 }//  funanal()
 


 analstring = "Drag 3D";
 funanal();
 
 
 }//  static function main()
 
}//  class Test

The error is somewhere in   conn.send('analconnect', 'analHere', analstring);

The best solution I've come up with is to write an XML file, throw it up on a server using a php file and load the XML with the parent swf.

If I'm understanding your problem correctly, it may be simplest to do one of the following:

• Declare a public variable in the child swf. If the parent swf has a reference to the child called "childMC", then you could access it like "childMC.theVariable"
• Create a custom event in the child which includes data. Add a listener from the parent. There is an example here of how to do that in Actionscript 3, which is very similar to Haxe.

LocalConnection is generally used when there are two swf files in the same environment, like a webpage, and neither is the "parent" or the "child".
