View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Creating Text / Image Box Based On Current Date
Feb 25, 2010I'm currently working in Flash mx 2004 and am creating a version of 'what happened in history today'. So my final layout will have the following iobjects.
Heading: 'current date'
Title: 'On this day in History'
Text box: Which displays the right description from a text file. history.txt
Image box: which displays a pic related to the current date.

I have an images folderwhere the pictures are stored with files names related to date i.e. 14feb.jpg and my history.txt file is set out with a line for each date. i.e., 14feb=Valentines Day etc.

View 11 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Fetching A String Globally
Jun 5, 2011For examples sake, say I have an 'Icon' class. When you set Icon's 'name' variable, it downloads the image (of the given name) from a server/directory.
The problem however, is that even though the name (of the image) is provided, the name of the server, or even the folder containing the image is not.
Of course, I could explicitly define the full name and location of the file to the class, but if I ever decide to change folder structure I would have to go through and find all references to the folder and change it. It also seems wrong to litter all of my parent classes with arbitrary URL's to feed to the Icon class.
The preference of course would be to 'globally request' the image server/directory on instantiation, but in the world of OOP how is this best achieved?
I was just about to have the Icon class dispatch a bubbling event, letting something at the end of the displayList catch the event/request and feed it the information (a String) it was looking for, but it didn't feel right. It feels like dispatchEvent should only be used to Dispatch Events, not request a string...
Also, I've come up to similar situations where I've needed a similar request structure without being an extension of EventDispatcher (such as just a primitive Object). Is there a best practice for both?
