opening multiple file archive - bytearray?

[fantasio]

hi there,

a client asked me, if it is possible to open a gz or other format archive, which contains multiple files with flash and then process the files.

i guess it should be possible with byte-array.
i managed to open a gzipped xml file this way.
however i am a little stumped on how to determine which file is what in the opened and decompressed archive.

can anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks a lot!

They should have an extension like .swf and you should be able to detect the files by this way.

this is possible wih byte array?
i have for example:

		
_loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
// then on load
_loader.data.uncompress();
// now the uncompressed stuff would be in
_loader.data

how do i process further now?

(the files will be flv files btw.)
