Classpublic class SWFBridgeEvent
InheritanceSWFBridgeEvent Inheritance Event Inheritance Object

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

This is an event that is sent between applications that are in different security sandboxes. The event lets objects in other sandboxes know what is going on in this sandbox. The events are informational in nature as opposed to a SWFBridgeRequest, which request an object do something on its behalf.

This class defines event constants that refer to "activation". In this case, activation means one of the components in the application can receive the keyboard input focus. When an application is activated, the component that last had focus receives focus again.

BRIDGE_AIR_WINDOW_ACTIVATE

Constant
public static const BRIDGE_AIR_WINDOW_ACTIVATE:String = "bridgeAIRWindowActivate"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 4
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Dispatched to a parent bridge or sandbox root to notify it that the AIR window was activated.

BRIDGE_AIR_WINDOW_DEACTIVATE

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_AIR_WINDOW_DEACTIVATE:String = "bridgeAIRWindowDeactivate"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 4
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Dispatched to a parent bridge or sandbox root to notify it that the AIR window was deactivated.

BRIDGE_APPLICATION_ACTIVATE

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_APPLICATION_ACTIVATE:String = "bridgeApplicationActivate"

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

Dispatched to a parent bridge or sandbox root to notify it that another application has been activated.

BRIDGE_APPLICATION_UNLOADING

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_APPLICATION_UNLOADING:String = "bridgeApplicationUnloading"

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

Sent through a bridge to a child application's SystemManager to notify it that the SWF is about to be unloaded. The SystemManager marshals and re-dispatches the event so that application code can remove references that would prevent the SWF file from unloading.

BRIDGE_FOCUS_MANAGER_ACTIVATE

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_FOCUS_MANAGER_ACTIVATE:String = "bridgeFocusManagerActivate"

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

Dispatched through bridges to all other FocusManagers to notify them that another FocusManager is now active.

BRIDGE_NEW_APPLICATION

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_NEW_APPLICATION:String = "bridgeNewApplication"

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

Dispatched through a parent bridge to its SWFLoader to notify it that a new SystemManager has been initialized.

BRIDGE_WINDOW_ACTIVATE

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_WINDOW_ACTIVATE:String = "bridgeWindowActivate"

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

Dispatched to a parent bridge or sandbox root to notify it that a window was activated. For a compatible application, the data property is an object with two properties, window and notifier. The data.window property is the SystemManager proxy that was activated. For an untrusted application, the data.window property is a string id of the window. The data.notifier property is the bridge of the application dispatching the event. The event might be dispatched directly to a sandbox root instead of over a bridge, so event.target might not be the bridge of the application dispatching the event.

BRIDGE_WINDOW_DEACTIVATE

Constant 
public static const BRIDGE_WINDOW_DEACTIVATE:String = "brdigeWindowDeactivate"

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

Dispatched to a parent bridge or sandbox root to notify it that the proxy SystemManager was deactivated. For a compatible application, the data property is an object with two properties, window and notifier. The data.window property is the SystemManager proxy that was activated. For an untrusted application, the data.window property is a string id of the window. The data.notifier property is the bridge of the application dispatching the event. The event might be dispatched directly to a sandbox root instead of over a bridge, so event.target might not be the bridge of the application dispatching the event.
