Constant Detail

COMPLETE

Constant
public static const COMPLETE:String = "complete"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the resource module SWF file has finished loading. The ResourceEvent.COMPLETE constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a complete event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

PropertyValue
bubblesfalse
cancelablefalse
currentTargetThe object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use myButton.addEventListener() to register an event listener, myButton is the value of currentTarget.
errorTextEmpty
targetThe object that dispatched the event; it is not always the object listening for the event. Use the currentTarget property to always access the object that listens for the event.

ERROR

Constant 
public static const ERROR:String = "error"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when there is an error loading the resource module SWF file. The ResourceEvent.ERROR constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a error event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

PropertyValue
bubblesfalse
bytesLoadedEmpty
bytesTotalEmpty
cancelablefalse
currentTargetThe object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use the myButton.addEventListener() method to register an event listener, myButton is the value of currentTarget.
errorText
targetThe object that dispatched the event; it is not always the object that is listening for the event. Use the currentTarget property to always access the object that listens for the event.

PROGRESS

Constant 
public static const PROGRESS:String = "progress"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the resource module SWF file is loading. The ResourceEvent.PROGRESS constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a progress event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

PropertyValue
bubblesfalse
bytesLoadedThe number of bytes loaded.
bytesTotalThe total number of bytes to load.
cancelablefalse
currentTargetThe object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use the myButton.addEventListener() method to register an event listener, myButton is the value of currentTarget.
errorText
targetThe object that dispatched the event; it is not always the object that listens for the event. Use the currentTarget property to always access the object that is listening for the event.
