Question

currently I am developing C# application that sends amf packet to server using FluorineFx.

It works fine, but I found out strange datatype called Externalized Object.

I found out that FluorineFX Contains a class named ArrayCollection but i dont now how i need to use it and the bigger problem, how i can send it as externalized object

This is the capture file from Charles and I have re-produce those Externalized Objects.

Answer 1

I don't know about this but from this link you can learn that...

A single AMF 3 type handles ActionScript Objects and custom user classes. The term 'traits' is used to describe the defining characteristics of a class. In addition to anonymous objects and typed objects, ActionScript 3.0 introduces two further traits to describe how objects are serialized, namely dynamic and externalizable.

Anonymous : an instance of the actual ActionScript Object type or an instance of a Class without a registered alias (that will be treated like an Object on deserialization)

Typed : an instance of a Class with a registered alias

Dynamic : an instance of a Class definition with the dynamic trait declared; public variable members can be added and removed from instances dynamically at runtime

Externalizable : an instance of a Class that implements flash.utils.IExternalizable and completely controls the serialization of its members (no property names are included in the trait information).

Between the above info, also this AS3 Docs entry and this Fluorine Documentation, maybe it helps you get a direction on how to "re-produce those Externalized Objects".

PS: What happens if you just go ahead and treat Externalized object as normal Object? Your app/code may still work as expected.
