Network Connection

#1

Is there any way to detect network connection for CPP output? it is quite important. I tried using haxe.Http, but it causes crashes on Windows and Android for several app launches (security errors?). Thanks!

#2

What about using openfl.net.URLLoader? Does that crash?

Hi! I tried to create Network extension following this: Internet Connection?
lime -verbose
haxelib run openfl setup -alias
lime create extension E:\openflextensions\Network
But these errors are showed and there is no ndll folder created.

Wait, are you on Windows or a Unix-based system? Because I think one of those file paths is wrong…

Either way, I’d suggest running lime create extension Network without “E:\openflextensions\”. That will put the extension inside the current directory, but once it’s made you can move it.

I think Network has to extend Extension
