Rapid development framework for extending Adobe Flash

xJSFL

Intro

xJSFL is an open source JSFL framework for creating tools and plugins for the Adobe Flash IDE

It combines the expressive nature and extensibility of a JavaScript framework like jQuery with the structure and file management features of PHP frameworks such as Kohana, to make working with JSFL easy.

Project status

I have not actively worked on xJSFL for many years now, so as of January 2022 I am mothballing the project.

The original xjsfl.com website has been moved to static hosting at xjsfl.vercel.app, which means that the search, site comments and forum no longer work, but the documentation is still accessible.

I have also made the xJSFL Komodo Extension public for the first time. The code is so old now, I suspect it won't run, but maybe someone would want to pick it up.

I think the only other thing to make public would be the original Snippets source code, which I can do on request.

However, I will not be providing any support or input into the project from now on.

I hope everyone who enjoyed using it at the time has fond memories!

xjsfl's Issues

xJSFL does not run in Adobe Flash CC and Adobe Animate

Running the installer with Adobe Animate will result in this error when processing the xml.js file.

When you press OK, the script will continue to run generating this log:

I need a little help

Thanks for you reopen the API host.
but this api has gone (404), could you recover it?thanks alot https://xjsfl.vercel.app/support/api/flash/Iterators

Do you have plan to open the source code of xjsfl.dll?

Hi,

I'm a newbie for xjsfl. I have to write some flash extension and found this, xjsfl. I'm interested in using xjsfl and also want to know more detail of internal. I've just started to review xjsfl but have curious for xjsfl.dll.

Do you have plan to open the source code of xjsfl.dll? If you do, I think it'll help me to understand internal of xjsfl more.

Thanks,
JinSan

when will the UTF_8 + BOM finish?

your topic, at the bottom

when will it be applied?

I wrote a ruby script to add UTF_8 BOM header to jsfl

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

UTF_8_BOM = "\xEF\xBB\xBF".force_encoding("binary")

script_dir = File.dirname(__FILE__)

Dir.glob("#{script_dir}/**/*.jsfl").each do |filename|
  content = File.read(filename).force_encoding("binary")
  puts filename
  next if content.start_with?(UTF_8_BOM)
  File.open(filename, "w") do |file|
    file.write(UTF_8_BOM)
    file.write(content)
  end
end

another question: is it a must for every Flash CS* ?

fl.xmlui.setEnabled() and fl.xmlui.setVisible()

fl.xmlui.setEnabled() and fl.xmlui.setVisible() stop working in Flash CC (Windows)

Komodo and AutoCode version number

Please publish the Komodo and Auto Code version with which xJSFL works.

Commands > xJSFL > Configuration crashes Adobe Flash CS5

I am not sure what you can 'configure', but I ran into this issue today when verifying the state of xJSFL.

xJSFL version: 1.02 branch
Repo steps:

1. Run Commands > xJSFL > Configuration

2. Notice Error dialog.

This issue happens on both OSX 10.10 and OSX 10.12.

Items iterator crash with embed font.

Items iterators seems to crash before even calling the callback when there is a font in the FLA file. (On OSX with Flash CC)

Snippet module on OSX and Flash CC

The snippet module seems to be broken on OSX with flash CC.

All the scripts show as folders and they don't execute when clicking on them.

Not sure if the problem is OSX or Flash CC yet

Do you have any plan to open the source of xjsfl.dll?

Hi,

I'm interested in using xjsfl and itself. I'm very curious of the internal of xjsfl.dll. Do you have any plan to open the source of xjsfl.dll?

Thanks,
JinSan

Settings.as

Hello,

Settings.as seems incomplete. I had to re-write for my purposes, here is my version:
