Property Detail

faultCode

property

public var faultCode:String

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Versions:

BlazeDS 4, LiveCycle Data Services 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Provides access to the destination-specific failure code. For more specific details see the faultString and faultDetails properties.

The format of the fault codes are provided by the remote destination, but will typically have the following form: host.operation.error or Channel.operation.error. For example, "Server.Connect.Failed" and Channel.Connect.Failed.

Channel.Connect.Failed is issued by the Channel class and its subclasses (RTMPChannel, AMFChannel, HTTPChannel, and so forth) whenever there is an issue in a Channel's connect attempts to the remote destination. Channel.Call.Failed is issued by the AMFChannel when the channel is already connected but it gets a Call.Failed code from its underlying NetConnection. Only the AMFChannel class listens for NetConnection.Call.Failed, which gets converted to Channel.Call.Failed.

faultDetail

property

public var faultDetail:String

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Versions:

BlazeDS 4, LiveCycle Data Services 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Provides destination-specific details of the failure.

Typically fault details are a stack trace of an exception thrown at the remote destination.

faultString

property

public var faultString:String

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Versions:

BlazeDS 4, LiveCycle Data Services 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Provides access to the destination-specific reason for the failure.

rootCause

property

public var rootCause:Object

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Versions:

BlazeDS 4, LiveCycle Data Services 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Provides access to the underlying reason for the failure if the channel did not raise the failure itself.

Constructor Detail

ChannelFaultEvent

()

Constructor

public function ChannelFaultEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, channel:Channel = null, reconnecting:Boolean = false, code:String = null, level:String = null, description:String = null, rejected:Boolean = false, connected:Boolean = false)

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Versions:

BlazeDS 4, LiveCycle Data Services 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Constructs an instance of this event with the specified type. Note that the rejected and connected arguments that correspond to properties defined by the super-class ChannelEvent were not originally included in this method signature and have been added at the end of the argument list to preserve backward compatibility even though this signature differs from ChannelEvent's constructor.

Parameters

	`type:String` — The type of the event.

	`bubbles:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Indicates whether the event can bubble up the display list hierarchy.

	`cancelable:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Indicates whether the behavior associated with the event can be prevented.

	`channel:Channel` (default = `null`) — The Channel generating the event.

	`reconnecting:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Indicates whether the Channel is in the process of reconnecting or not.

	`code:String` (default = `null`) — The fault code.

	`level:String` (default = `null`) — The fault level.

	`description:String` (default = `null`) — The fault description.

	`rejected:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Indicates whether the Channel's connection has been rejected, which suppresses automatic reconnection.

	`connected:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Indicates whether the Channel that generated this event is already connected.

Constant Detail

FAULT

Constant

public static const FAULT:String = "channelFault"

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Product Versions:

BlazeDS 4, LiveCycle Data Services 3

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The FAULT event type; indicates that the Channel faulted.

The value of this constant is "channelFault".

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property	Value
`bubbles`	false
`cancelable`	false
`channel`	The Channel that generated this event.
`currentTarget`	The 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 the `currentTarget`.
`faultCode`	Provides destination-specific details of the failure.
`faultDetail`	Provides access to the destination-specific reason for the failure.
`faultString`	Provides access to the underlying reason for the failure if the channel did not raise the failure itself.
`reconnecting`	Indicates whether the channel that generated this event is reconnecting.
`rootCause`	Provides access to the underlying reason for the failure if the channel did not raise the failure itself.
`target`	The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
