I am trying to sort an array that is generated thru an xml file.
The XML has "sections" that are used to generate a different view type, it is NOT used here but is needed for other features. What IS used is the artist name & ID. This function takes the data from XML and takes the name and ID from each section and puts it into 2 separate Arrays, "nameArr" and "noArr". After these two new arrays are created they are sent into an object "sectionData". The objects are then sent into a new Array "multiArr". This looks a little overkill but it is needed to create a new array without the section info.
I am trying to sort this new array multiArr using the "sortOn" method by "ID" to sort it by id but it is not working. It doesn't sort the array.
ActionScript Code:
public function setListData( data:Array ) {
var sectionData:Object = {};

this is an array of objects that i want to alphabetize:
var streets:Array = new Array();
streets.push({name:"Édouard-Montpetit"});
streets.push({name:"Alexandre de Sève"});
streets.push({name:"Van Horne"});
streets.push({name:"Atwater"});
now i'll sort my array:
streets.sortOn("name", Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);
//Sorted
Alexandre de Sève
Atwater
Van Horne
Édouard-Montpetit
the accent above the E in Édouard-Montpetit, and any other first letter with a non-english accent is sorted after Z.how i can sort this correctly? i do not have access to the named data.
I have an Array of objects that each have a Name and a Score. I can sort the Array with '.sortOn()' by the object's Name or the Score, but when I sort by the Score, if some Names have the same Score, they don't list Alphabetically within that Score.
The following code shows what I mean. The Names with a Score of 50 are together when listed by Score, but they are not Alphabetical. How do I combine both ways of sorting?

I have an array of objects. The objects have a base class with various properties. Each time an object gets created, I push it into the array. However, I need to sort the objects based on one of their properties.Lets say in my object class, I have a function "ReturnNumber()" that returns a number, I want to sort my array based on which number was the highest. Can I use SortOn() to do this?
View 1 RepliesI have an array which holds objects. The objects have properties called cat and title. The cat property can hold values like:
Cat 1
Cat 2
Cat 3
And the title property can hold values:
Title 1
Title 2
Title 3
So that you wind up with something that looks like
Cat 1
Title 1
Cat 1
Title 2
Cat 2
Title 3
etc.
Now, I want to sort these, but we all know that Array.sortOn(["cat", "title"]) will produce results like:
Cat 1
Cat 10
Cat 11
Cat 2
Cat 3
What's the most efficient method of sorting these properly (so the number component sorts like a number and not like a string)? I can request users pad their entries (yes, other people will be entering this data), but that's both a little bit ugly and not very user friendly.
I'm using the sortOn method to sort my array. concider this array:

I'm trying to do Array.sortOn on an array of custom-class objects. It's not working, though nothing in the documentation suggests that this is a problem. Below is the code. I'm confident the MetricRecord constructor is working fine because everything else works, and the traces below are correct, except they don't sort.
// This array sorts
metricRecords = new Array();
metricRecords.push({mediaVehicle:"cca", temp:"asxcvbxcber"});
metricRecords.push({mediaVehicle:"aaa", temp:"asdfertr"});

I am loading data from an xml file into several different arrays. Once its all information is in the arrays I then sort one of the arrays (called percentage) numerically from highest to lowest. What I can't figure out is how to reflect the changes in position in the other arrays to what has happened in the percentage array.

View 0 RepliesI've been searching for ever for a solution to sort a numeric array that I create from an xml file. All I can sort is the first digit of each number. So I get this for example: 4,4,4,3,23,2,2,10,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,023 should be first! How to I fix that?Here is my code:

I am building a remote control, and when i enter txt, right now i can "change the channel" only for a single value 1-9. the way it functions is you hit the number, then an enter button, and the channel changes. The problem is I want to able to enter 2 digits, and the way i have it coded now, it adds the the numbers together instead of reading 1 as 2 , 2 as 4 and so on, here is the code, I'm thinking i should use an array, or a string to get the proper value, but when i use the "+" sign it still adds the number together, how would i express, so it sees 11 as eleven etc?

How would you go about initializing a Vector. with say the values 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Logic would say you could do newVector = new Vector. ( [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] );
You could also try something like this...
var tmp = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
newVector = new Vector.();
newVector = newVector.concat(tmp);
But then you get a type error converting Array to Vector.
I'm stumped, am I missing something stupid or does the vector class really not play well with numeric types? You can try making them decimal numbers just to be sure they get cast as number and not int.
While a for loop runs through all the elements in an array I want to get the width of each element and add it to the sum of the width of all previous elements.

I get the feeling this problem is anything but complex, but I can't seem to pull it off.
I have an array that contains search results and looks like this:
array[x].id :Number
array[x].sectionID :Number
array[x].occur :Number
array[x].title :String
etc...
I want to sort it by sectionID ASC and occur DESC (occurances). What I read in the documentation is that I can sort on multiple fields like so:
array.sortOn(["sectionID", "occur"], options);
But I need to specify different options for each fieldName while it seems the function only allows for one set of options.

I would like to sort xml nodes using attribute datumNum, but I can't get it to work. Don't know how to pass attribute to sortOn function before the for loop.

Why is it not sorting on "bdistance" ?? its returning 2, 14, 7, 12, 11, 24... what kind of sorting is this??
I'm using the .sortOn() function in AS3.0 to sort an array with multiple elements.First, I push the values to the array, like this:[code] The program has a number of "loops" it goes through. So, I push data to this array (which is global) a first time, sort it, and then later I clear the array with the .shift() function in conjunction with a for loop. I then push new data to the array with the same line of code mentioned above.But what's happening is this: on the first round, everything works great, and this is what my output looks like:[code]Before I cleared the array with for loop and .shift(), it would say "Northern Alberta & Prairies" in ALL array slots. Since I started using the .shift() function I managed to get BC to remain, but it's still clearing my southern alberta entry.

In one of my Action Script 3 projects I need to create package names having numerics in them. For example I am writing one of the package name as com.projectname.activity101.view.*
My query is whether it is okay to have numerics in the package name as in the above example. I am asking this query as once working with Flash 7 I had used the package name ending in number that gave me some issues. When I changed the package name to have only alphabets in it the issue was resolved.
