To solve the issue (ServerSocketConnectEvent )
use Air2Beta1 instead of Air2Beat2.

I have solved the problem:
“Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: ServerSocketConnectEvent.”

I download the AIR 2.0 SDK

and follow this document:
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/AIR_2:Release_Notes#How_to_overlay_the_Adobe_AIR_SDK_for_use_with_the_Flex_SDK

It is work.

(sorry, my english is not good, if you dont know what I say, I’m so sorry….)

@James, @Nathan

Same problem with me too

private function socketConnectHandler(event:ServerSocketConnectEvent):void
{
var socket:Socket = event.socket;
socket.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA, socketDataHandler);
}

Any body got the solutions?

Christophe Could you provide me the published project code?

Thanks in advance

Christophe,
This is pretty awesome! If AS3 had some sort of dynamic AS3 evaluation, someone could write a web server which could execute server side AS3! There are a libraries out there, but it would be pretty slow, since they interpret/run the script.

I hope that AIR gets some scripting engine support in the future, with JIT compilation, etc!

Any performance improvements in the overall socket library with 2.0?

With the 1.5 runtime, socket sends of large buffers (1MB) seems to be limited to 100KBytes/second regardless of what the link and endpoint can do. Equivalent code in other interpreted run time environments can go 10-15 times faster.

@James,

Yeah, same problem with me too… the problem could be found in line 65:

private function socketConnectHandler(event:ServerSocketConnectEvent):void
{
var socket:Socket = event.socket;
socket.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA, socketDataHandler);
}

with the following error message:

“Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: ServerSocketConnectEvent.”

This would be very useful if you can provide us with a solution for this, so we can compile it in our end.

Thanks a lot Christophe for another great AIR application!

Nathan
