Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: OSMF 1.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The NetConnectionFactory class is used to generate connected NetConnection instances and to manage sharing of these instances. The NetConnectionFactory can also handle port/protocol negotiation.

NetConnectionFactory is stateless. Multiple parallel create() requests may be made. A hash of the resource URL is used as a key to determine which NetConnections may be shared.

NetConnectionFactory

()Constructor
public function NetConnectionFactory(shareNetConnections:Boolean = true)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: OSMF 1.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Constructor.

Parameters
shareNetConnections:Boolean (default = true) — Boolean specifying whether created NetConnections may be shared or not. The default is true.
Method Detail

createNetConnection

()method
protected function createNetConnection():NetConnection

Product Version: OSMF 1.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The factory function for creating a NetConnection.

Returns
NetConnection — An unconnected NetConnection.

createNetConnectionKey

()method 
protected function createNetConnectionKey(resource:URLResource):String

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: OSMF 1.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Generates a key to uniquely identify each connection. This key is used to determine whether a particularly URLResource can share an existing NetConnection. If the keys for two URLResources are identical, then they can share the same NetConnection. By default, this method returns a String consisting of the protocol, host, port, and FMS application name.

Parameters

resource:URLResource — a URLResource

Returns
String — a String hash that uniquely identifies the NetConnection

createNetConnectionURLs

()method 
protected function createNetConnectionURLs(url:String, urlIncludesFMSApplicationInstance:Boolean = false):Vector.<String>

Assembles a vector of URLs that should be used during the connection attempt. The default protocols attempted when a "rtmp" connection is specified are "rtmp", "rtmps", and "rtmpt". When a "rtmpe" connection is requested, both "rtmpe" and "rtmpte" protocols are attempted. When "rtmps","rtmpt" or "rtmpte" are requested, only those protocols are attempted. The default ports are 1935, 443 and 80. If a specific port is specified in the URL, then only that port is used. Subclasses can override this method to change this default behavior.

Parameters

url:String — The URL to be loaded.
 
urlIncludesFMSApplicationInstance:Boolean (default = false) — Indicates whether the URL includes the FMS application instance name. See StreamingURLResource for more info.

Returns
Vector.<String>
