Thread: How to display .swf files in java code JEditorPane using eclips platform

am not able to retrieve .swf or .fla files

Please explain what "not able to retrieve" means?

Post the code with the problems here on the forum. Be sure to wrap the code with code tags.

What classes and packages are you trying to use to display those types of files?

Post your code here in line (not as attachment) if you have questions about it.

--- Update ---

please find the code above....

Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
[code=java]
YOUR CODE HERE
[/code]
to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

Does it say anything in the API doc for the classes you are using about displaying SWF files?

file is not loading properly

Please explain what it means to "load properly".

Why do you think the code you have posted is capable of displaying swf files?

it will not display

What is supposed to be displayed?

Have you tried the code with a simple html file to see if it is displayed?

i tried html files

Did they display as you expected?

Why do you think java will display swf files?

not able to display html file

First work on getting something simple like an html file to display.
Make sure you get the full text of any error messages by calling the printStackTrace() method in the catch blocks.

You should first become familiar with the capabilities of the Components you are using (usually by reading the API docs). Presuming 'swf'/'fla' are referring to a Adobe flash media - at this time JEditorPane does not have this capability, which from glancing at all the posts above seems to be what you are trying to do.

Don't browsers require a plugin for swf, etc?

Demo.jpg

The above output is am getting now...actually i need to display swf image files in that window_pane and in DOM structure pane and Attribute pane Suppose i need to display properties of the swf image file means pixel,height and width.

i need to display swf image files

What packages and classes do you have for displaying swf files? There are none in standard java to do that.

properties of the swf image file

What packages and classes do you have that will get that information from a swf file?

i need to display my .swf files in editor pane in which in my window pane consistes of dom struture and attribute ,editorpane in url bar when we browse a .swf file .then we need to display a swf or fla on the editor pane and in dom structure it displays the subtree of the image (which we can edit in the flash cs3) and in in attribute label we need to display the properties of perticular label like x,y,width,hieght, either we need to display the fla files (which is editable ),actually we need the properties of either fla or swf files for segmentation purpose please sir/madam get me a solution

Those requirements are NOT part of standard java. You will need to use packages from other sources to do it.
