Is there good .sol editor for Flash Player 9 Local Shared Objects? Can we build one?

Question

There\'s plenty of them out there but none of them do what I would like them to do.

Most of them crash when opening a file or simply corrupt the data. Many don\'t run at

Answer 1

@ Another_Castle,

The poster was wanting an editor that could both read and write shared object files. While I do like minerva, it clearly states on the site that there is a bug saving AMF3 format files. I have tried every program listed here to no avail and it seems that there is not an editor out there capable of saving amf3 format files after editing consistently. If someone has one please post it here.

Answer 2

Flash originally serialized data into a format called AMF, and with version 9+ uses an updated version called AMF3. While the AMF specs are open (the AMF3 spec is here), I don't think Adobe has opened the format of SOL files themselves. (Also, I think that SOL files written partially by v9+ players may contain both AMF0 and AMF3 data.)

As for existing apps/frameworks, it looks like PyAMF is your best bet, as it's the only one I found after a quick browse that claims to grok both AMF0 and AMF3. I haven't personally used it however.

Answer 3

Use minerva. I've tried it, it works with every .sol I open it with.
