NetConnection

The NetConnection class creates a two-way connection between a client and a server. The client can be a Flash Player or AIR application. The server can be a web server, Flash Media Server, an application server running Flash Remoting, or the <a href="http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/stratus/" scope="external">Adobe Stratus service. Call NetConnection.connect() to establish the connection. Use the NetStream class to send streams of media and data over the connection. For security information about loading content and data into Flash Player and AIR, see the following:

NetStream

The NetStream class opens a one-way streaming channel over a NetConnection. Use the NetStream class to do the following:

ObjectEncoding

The ObjectEncoding class is used in defining serialization settings in classes that serialize objects (such as FileStream, NetStream, NetConnection, SharedObject, and ByteArray).

SharedObject

The SharedObject class is used to read and store limited amounts of data on a user's computer or on a server. Shared objects offer real-time data sharing between multiple client SWF files and objects that are persistent on the local computer or remote server. Local shared objects are similar to browser cookies and remote shared objects are similar to real-time data transfer devices. To use remote shared objects, you need Adobe Flash Media Server.

SharedObjectFlushStatus

The SharedObjectFlushStatus class provides values for the code returned from a call to the SharedObject.flush() method.

URLLoader

The URLLoader class downloads data from a URL as text, binary data, or URL-encoded variables. It is useful for downloading text files, XML, or other information to be used in a dynamic, data-driven application.

URLLoaderDataFormat

The URLLoaderDataFormat class provides values that specify how downloaded data is received.

URLRequest

The URLRequest class captures all of the information in a single HTTP request. URLRequest objects are passed to the load() methods of the Loader, URLStream, and URLLoader classes, and to other loading operations, to initiate URL downloads. They are also passed to the upload() and download() methods of the FileReference class.

URLRequestDefaults

The URLRequestDefaults class includes static properties that you can set to define default values for the properties of the URLRequest class. It also includes a static method, URLRequestDefaults.setLoginCredentialsForHost(), which lets you define default authentication credentials for requests. The URLRequest class defines the information to use in an HTTP request.

URLRequestHeader

A URLRequestHeader object encapsulates a single HTTP request header and consists of a name/value pair. URLRequestHeader objects are used in the requestHeaders property of the URLRequest class.

URLRequestMethod

The URLRequestMethod class provides values that specify whether the URLRequest object should use the POST method or the GET method when sending data to a server.
