ActionScript 2.0 :: Defining An Object With Variable Properties?
Nov 15, 2003What I need to accomplish is this:
Code:
var cnms = this.cNames.split("|");
myDP = new Array({cnms[0]:"Chris", cnms[1]:"Priceless"}, {cnms[0]:"Nigel", cnms[1]:"Cheap"});
Obviously, this doesn't work, otherwise I wouldn't be typing this right now. How do I define an object with variable properties ? I've tried eval(), but it doesn't work either.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Initialize The Object With A String Variable Which Holds The Initialization Properties (without Parsing The Text)
Dec 5, 2005I initialize the "point" object like:

ActionScript :: Xml - Setting Object Properties From Other Object Properties?
Jun 25, 2010i'm attempting to cast an object's property as an actual property of another object. here's my object variable: var propObj:Object = {prop:"width", width:50}; now i want to assign the property of a sprite using that object's properties. var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); sp.(propObj.prop as Sprite.property) = propObj.width; now, i'm not even going to try that because i know the compiler will explode all up in my face. but you should be able to see what i'm trying to do. why i'm trying to do it is because i'm reading in an XML file with an undetermined list of usable properties for specific objects. so instead of writing something like a huge switch statement to evaluate whether the XML file has a value for that specific property, i'm trying to assign properties dynamically based on what's available in the XML file. if what i'm trying to do is possible, what's the best way to do it?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Trace The Properties Of An Object's Properties?
Jan 30, 2008I forgot to put it in the title so I'll just place it here; I am using AS 2.0. I know that there are other ways to accomplish the goal that am after, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to access the properties of an object's properties?
Here is the code that I thought of, even though it doesn't work
var a:Object = new Object();
a.bproperty = 0; //lowerlevel properties
a.cproperty = 1; // lowerlevel properties
[Code].....
This really just boils down to how I am organizing the code(I have ideas on what do next, and i am 99% sure that I can get them to work), and if there is a way to dynamically access the properties of the objects properties, It will save me from creating yet another large block of code for my project.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Retrieving Object Properties From Object Array?
Nov 11, 2007I'm basically loading an XML file to assign instances of a movie clip a distinct value, which it uses to modify its height. So, I'm looping through the xml and instantiating my class Object each time (Rect) and then placing that Object into an array:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if(loaded){
var boxArray:Array;
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code]....
the trace here always comes up undefined. "listPosition" in this bit is an Rect parameter, defined in the previous bit of code as "i", so I can keep track of the order of the stack.I've found one or two examples of putting objects into an array and getting them back out, but it doesn't seem to work with this, maybe because I'm using a class. I don't know.Could this be an area where I need to use the array access brackets, like around the movie clip the object is loaded into. I've tried everything I can think of -- referencing back to the movieclip, adding extra objectRef type parameters... nothing has worked yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Your Own Properties For An Object?
Sep 11, 2008Back in the day (AS2), I used to create what I called an"ivar" property that collected the index of a series of buttonsthat were clickable (see attached code). Imagine 10 buttons on thestage with names (selectButton0, selectButton1, ...selectButton9).The code under the //----------BUTTONS header would make a propertyof the button that was clicked, call it "ivar" and then send it upto a function that would use it as an index to then load theappropriate content with MovieClipLoader (remember that Class?).I have tried something similar in AS3 without any luck sincethe whole button thing is now steered by events. Does anybody knowan elegant solution that would achieve a similar result. That is,click a button called "selectButton0" and have returned the zero asan index variable that could be used further?

PHP Code:
for (proprtyThing in objectThing) {
trace (proprtyThing);

My understanding of this loop tells me that if I run it, I'll get a list of all the properties of the object named objectThing....but this makes no sense to me!!
