FlashVars in Flex

Posted by David in Flex on December 11, 2006

Ray Camden has some examples on how you can pass FlashVars to your Flex apps as well as read them in a Flex app. Here is what he goes over:

HTML code:

"flashvars",'flashvar1=ray&flashvar2=camden&historyhistoryUrl=history.htm%3F&lconid=' + lc_id + '',

Flex code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns:comp="components.*">
   
   <mx:Script>
   <![CDATA[
   import mx.controls.Alert;
   
   private function test():void {
      Alert.show(this.parameters.flashvar1+' '+this.parameters.flashvar2, "Flashvars");   
   }
   ]]>
   </mx:Script>
   
   <mx:Button id="btnTest" label="Test" click="test()" />
   
</mx:Application>
