[solved] Trap error from XML defined loader

[macguffin 28 Likes (Newbie)]

Hi I'm sure this is simple but can you listen for an onError or onFail event from a loader created via xml.

 

example

 

My xml has this:

if this file is missing my flash output window states:

Error on SWFLoader 'MGGO' (monopolygoldtwtw_MG_GO1.swf): Error #2032: Stream Error.etc etc as expected.

 

I want my loader to be able to listen for any error created via this XML load method. Is there a catch all for loaderMax errors?

 

Cheers

you can add an onChildFail listener to the XMLLoader:

 

onChildFail : Function - A handler function for LoaderEvent.CHILD_FAIL events which are dispatched each time any nested LoaderMax-related loaders that were defined in the XML fails (and its status chances to LoaderStatus.FAILED). Make sure your onChildFail function accepts a single parameter of type LoaderEvent (com.greensock.events.LoaderEvent).
