Hi guys i am trying to run application.gc on disconnect of all users.

quote:

application.onDisconnect = function(client){
trace("disconnect: " + client.name);
application.users_so.setProperty(client.name, null);
if (application.clients.length < 1){
application.gc();
applications.shutdown()
}
}

gc never seems to trigger and if i run a trace it returns false.

Anyone

keep tring maybe do something else untill you become a master with server side scripting .....you know do simple stuff and work your way up sounds like what you want to do is pretty complex so simplify your sever side scripting projects for a few days.

neither has worked. :(
i tried to do a trace but nothing is returned

quote:

application.onDisconnect = function(client){
trace("disconnect: " + client.name);
application.users_so.setProperty(client.name, null);
if (application.clients.length < 1){
var names = application.users_so.getPropertyNames();
for (k in names){
var propVal = application.users_so.getProperty(names);
trace("Value of property " + names + " = " + propVal);
}
save_history();
}
}

save_history.prototype.isHistory_Result = function(result){
application.users_so.clear();
application.shutdown();
}

This will clear the shared object.

-EDIT-

Errr, I just did a bit more reading, so that might not work but if so, try this:

save_history.prototype.isHistory_Result = function(result){
var names = application.users_so.getPropertyNames();
for (x in names){
application.users_so.setProperty(names,null);
}
application.shutdown();
}

All i want to do is when the last user has left the room trigger a function of some sort to clear the SSO so that in the off chance that the user decides to go back into the room a minute later the previuos conversation is gone.
So i need to clear the SSO but i dont know how to do that.

I guess I don't understand how you are writing to the database sorry I was just putting in my two cents.........I write to my database using php so maybe what I said above isn't relevent to your situation and you should repost this question....or give your code a try untill you succeed.

here are two links the first one shows all of the server side actionscript that you can use the second one is the serverside shared object methods and such.

Would this be the correct code to clear the SSO?

quote:

save_history.prototype.isHistory_Result = function(result){
application.users_so.setProperty(null, null);
application.shutdown();
}

?

thanks

sure I can explain more a remote shared object does nothing more than hold data so when you are done using the data then clear the remote shared object the easiest way to clear it is to pass null to the remote shared object which tells it data doesn't exsist in the remote shared object or you can pass double quotes SO.data.slot1 = " "; to it also which is the same as passing null.If you want to pass the contents of a dynamic text field into two objects you would just write.... SO.data.slot1=mytext.text; SO.data.slot2 = mytext.text;
