Simple Connect Component with Multiple Port and Protocol Option
by Janu

We already know that firewalls are the main problem for clients when trying to connect to FCS, especially if we setup the connection as standard (RTMP connection on default port 1935). While the Flash Player might try some alternate ports this can take a while to complete.

Here's what I did with the simple connect component so that it allows and tries connections on multiple ports and with multiple protocols.
All we need to do is add/edit some code inside the simple connect component and modify the component definition

NOTE : I am using the old simple connect (before FCS updater 2) which is does not include the RTMPT tunneling code.

Step 1
Edit component definition
Update the component definition to reflect the changes below.


Step 2
On line 50 you'll find the script:
Key.addListener(this.enterListener); // it's inside the' FCSimpleConnectClass.prototype.init' function

Below that script add the following code :
this.portNum = this.owner.portNum = 0;
this.hostNumber = this.owner.hostNumber = 0;

Step 3
Update the method FCSimpleConnectClass.prototype.serverConnect = function(username, appInstance) to :

FCSimpleConnectClass.prototype.serverConnect = function(username, appInstance) { // Cleanup components this.close(); for (var i = 0; i<this.fcComponents.length; i++) { this._parent[this.fcComponents[i]].close(); } this.main_nc.close(); // Create a new net connection to the server this.main_nc = new NetConnection(); this.main_nc.owner = this; this.owner = this; // Uses an app instance if it's passed as a parameter to the movie if (appInstance != null) { this.appDirectory += "/"+appInstance; } // Check for last User Name, user username passed if supplied if (username != null) { this.username = username; this.changeName_btn._visible = false; this.inputBg_mc._visible = false; } else { this.local_so = SharedObject.getLocal("FCUsername", "/"); if (this.local_so.data.username != null) { this.username = this.local_so.data.username; this.changeName_btn.setEnabled(true); } } // this.doConnect(); // cek connection this.main_nc.onStatus = function(info) { trace(this.owner.main_nc.uri+' '+info.code); if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") { // put your code here // _parent.loginRespond(); } else { // checking tunneling option if (this.owner.hostAddress[this.owner.hostNumber].toUpperCase().indexOf("RTMPT") != -1) { // put your code here // _parent.errorFCS(); } else { if (this.owner.portNum<(this.owner.port.length-1)) { // keep Connection tunneling on RTMP+port this.owner.portNum++; this.owner.serverConnect(); } else { // updated Connection tunneling on RTMPT this.owner.hostNumber = 1; this.owner.serverConnect(); } } } }; };
Please note that you need to add some of your own logic towards the bottom of the code where I have inserted th comments.

Step 4
Edit the doConnect function so that it reads:
FCSimpleConnectClass.prototype.doConnect = function() { if (this.hostAddress[this.hostNumber].toUpperCase().indexOf("RTMPT:") != -1) { trace('RTMPT/HTTP tunneling'); // RTMPT/HTTP this.NetID = this.hostAddress[this.hostNumber]+'/'+this.removeSpaces(this.appDirectory); } else { trace('RTMP+Port tunneling'); // RTMP + Port this.NetID = this.hostAddress[this.hostNumber]+':'+this.port[this.portNum]+'/'+this.removeSpaces(this.appDirectory); } this.main_nc.connect(this.NetID, this.username, password); // Attach components this.setUsername(this.username); this.connect(this.main_nc); for (var i = 0; i<this.fcComponents.length; i++) { this._parent[this.fcComponents[i]].setUsername(this.username); this._parent[this.fcComponents[i]].connect(this.main_nc); } };


Step 5
The simple connect compoentn is updated and ready for use.
