Fileuploader uploads files in reverse order (flash multifile mode)

[vladar]

Files are uploaded in reverse order, when selecting multiple files at once with flash uploader.

E.g. I have a folder with files 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg etc, ordered by name. When selecting all of those files, they are properly displayed in filesList (1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg), but uploaded in reverse order (3.jpg, 2.jpg, 1.jpg). deferredUploading is set to 1, so it shouldn't affect upload queue.

This is especially inconvenient wheh uploading photo albums, where sequence of photos is important.

Looks like uploader.swf acts as stack, not queue when uploading files.

I believe the problem is in method "uploadNext" in flash movie, which uses pop() method instead of shift():

private function uploadNext(param1:Number = 0) : void
{
    var _loc_2:* = this.files.pop();
    this.workingFiles.push(_loc_2);
    if (this.files.length == 0)
    {
       this.isLastFile = true;
    }
    _loc_2.lastUploadTime = param1;
    _loc_2.doUpload(this.uploadURL, this.fieldName);
    return;
}// end function

I have just ensured that changing "pop" to "shift" in function uploadNext in UploadList.as fixes the issue (recompiled uploader.swf using ​http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/src/deft/trunk/ and uploader works properly now).

Will it be possible to include in 1.5.1?

there will be no 1.5.1. 1.6b1 is cut, as of now.
