https://nanjizal.github.io/turtleAnimation/index.html this is webgl animation

I have not built the lime version but it would be slower

definitely slower to redraw with lime

ok ... I'll have to do experiments at some point - but I don't know why it's like that

Is there any way to use Google Play's billing library v4+, for in-app purchases? It's mandatory now, and the "extension-iap" extension seems to only support v1.2.2, from what I can tell.

is there a sparrow atlas animation library for openfl?

hx
var loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, (e)->
{
    if (loader.content is Bitmap)
        callback((cast loader.content:Bitmap).bitmapData);
    else
        throw "Expected Bitmap";
});
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, (e)->{trace('IOError: ${e.toString()}');});
loader.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, (e)->{trace('ProgressEvent: ${e.toString()}');});
loader.load(new URLRequest(getIconPath(size)));

this doesn't seem to be working

no events fire

If I were to load the file as a string, would I use loadFromBase64 to convert the data to a bitmap?

i'm struggling to understand the MIME-type arg, anyone got examples?

it's a webp image, btw. but that works in my other project

@witty-island-52596 have you tried storing the

Loader

in a non-local variable somewhere, just in case it's getting garbage collected?

good idea

that said, does BitmapData.loadFromFile load from https?

looks like Loader may be using that under the hood

I load an image with Loader from https in one of my Feathers UI samples, so it should work

I just realized I misread loadFromFile's doc

A local file path or web address containing an image

and missed the "web address" part

I think I prefer this to using loaders

might suffer from the same problem tho

tried it, no luck

hx
static var loading = new Map<Int, Loader>();
public function loadIcon(size:NGIconSize = LARGE, callback:(BitmapData)->Void)
{
    var loader = new Loader();
    loading[this.id] = loader;// store ref to avoid GC
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, (e)->
    {
        loading.remove(this.id);
        if (loader.content is Bitmap)
            callback((cast loader.content:Bitmap).bitmapData);
        else
            throw "Expected Bitmap";
    });
    loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, (e)->{trace('IOError: ${e.toString()}');});
    loader.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, (e)->{trace('ProgressEvent: ${e.toString()}');});
    loader.load(new URLRequest(getIconPath(size)));
}

no events are firing

also I was under the impression that useWeakRef = false* should prevent GC on event listeners

it's a common misconception. with an event listener, it's the Loader holding a ref to the listener. the listener isn't holding a ref to the Loader. to prevent garbage collection of the Loader, something needs a ref to the Loader.

I also assumed the stack held a ref to it since it's reffed in an anonymous callback

but thats some shaky logic

weak refs make sense when a global object (like the stage) is the dispatcher because that can prevent something from being garbage collected.

anyway, we've determined that it's probably not GC in this case

yeah

also tried BitmapData.loadFromFile with no luck

which target are you using?
