Title: Create files to specific folder does not work
I use this sample to create 2 files to store several variables. The first is some variedles from an xml file to another and the other is a text file to store several values
It works when I test the movie in Flash, but when I run the swf file on my system the methods below don't create the file.
this is the code used:
save_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, saveGame);
function saveGame(event:MouseEvent):void
{
function saveQuestionFile():void
{
loadQuestions.splice(0,loadQuestions.length);
var questionFile:File = File.desktopDirectory;
questionFile = questionFile.resolvePath("./FlashProCS5_CIB/Mine/Pro/savedQuestions.xml");
trace(questionFile.url);
for (var i:int = 0; i< questions_XML.Questions.length(); i++)
{
loadQuestions.push(questions_XML.Questions[i]);
}
//trace(loadQuestions[v]);
var questionfileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
questionfileStream.open(questionFile, FileMode.WRITE);
questionfileStream.writeUTFBytes("<QuestionsList>");
questionfileStream.writeUTFBytes(loadQuestions.toString());
questionfileStream.writeUTFBytes("</QuestionsList>");
//questionfileStream.addEventListener(Event.CLOSE, fileQuestionClosed);
questionfileStream.close();
function fileQuestionClosed(event:Event):void
{
trace("closed event fired");
}
}
function saveTextFile():void
{
var file:File = File.desktopDirectory;
file = file.resolvePath("./FlashProCS5_CIB/Mine/Pro/savedGame.txt");
trace(file.url);
this.x = 131;
var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
fileStream.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
fileStream.writeUTFBytes(g + "\n" + points +"\n" + g2 + "\n" + points2 + "\n" + footClip1.rotation + "\n" + footClip2.rotation + "\n" + v + "\n" + p + "\n" + p1_txt.text + "\n" + p2_txt.text + "\n" + footClip1.x + "\n" + footClip1.y + "\n" + footClip2.x + "\n" + footClip2.y);
//fileStream.addEventListener(Event.CLOSE, fileClosed);
fileStream.close();
function fileClosed(event:Event):void
{
trace("closed event fired");
}
}
saveQuestionFile();
saveTextFile();
}

SWF file cannot create files.Running inside flash it will work for testing. You should create this as AIR application and then install AIR application to make it work as desired.

check this AIR tutorial to save file in any folder

Thanks for the reply.
Installed as air application and fix the path in order to save the files in the correct file but....nothing
In the mean time motion tween written with actionscript 3 does not work in air appli although works fine in flash environment. My nerves...!!
I will try to fix this.
How?
Don't know.
If someone can help...
Thanks in advance

Everything is working properly. Following the advices (thank you Troy and RedBull)and experimenting with directories eventually now everything is working fine.
This is a good tutorial to help you set up an air application:
http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/airapplication/3.php
And motion tween is working JUST FINE. I'm just an idiot that forgot to load some movie-clips in order to play correctly....
Never mind....
This is the sample of the code that is working perfect(air application):

fileStream.close();

save();
