ActionScript 2.0 :: Type Checking Data In Array?
Jan 15, 2006
I'm trying to do something such as:
Code:
var n:Node = openList.shift();
I know that all of the data contained inside openList is a type of Node object, but Flash returns an error. I don't know how to typecast such as placing (in another language)...
Code:
(Node) openList.shift();
...to tell Flash that the data returned will be a Node object.
Better yet, is there a way to specify, while declaring the array, the type of the data that will be placed in it?
I could just take the :Node tag out from my variable declaration, but this might be in a tutorial, so I should at least act like I believe half the stuff about proper coding I write about

I have a function and it accepts an argument, it can be a MovieClip or an Array. How can I determine what the type is of the argument? I did an attempt, but it didn't work, my code currently looks like so:
Code:
var peopleArray:Array = new Array("Alfred", "Bob", "Casper", "David");
function myFunction (givenArray:Object) {
if (givenArray.dataType == Array) {
trace ("This is an array");
// do stuff where an array is needed

I want to do something like this in Actionscript 3:
if(variable is Object) ...;
else ...;
Where variable could be a String(), Number(), Array(), Object()...Currently the above check returns true for all of these types, which makes sense. I only want it to return true for objects made with new Object(), however.

I'm basically having the following error: 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type void to an unrelated type Array. In relation to the event listener that calls 'Backdrop'. Backdrop is a public function in another class, but it does still recognise Backdrop as a function.

at some point in the past, i believe soon after i got Flash CS5 and installed it, i started receiving the following error when clicking the "Check Syntax" button:
Warning: 5004: The file '/Applications/Adobe Flash CS5/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/FP9/playerglobal.swc', which is required for typechecking ActionScript 3.0, could not be found. You may need to reinstall Flash.
what's particularly annoying is that playerglobal.swc file is present in that FP9 directory. do i need to choose some arbitrary setting somewhere so Flash CS5 knows it's not 2008 and that i'm not deploying on Flash Player 9?

I am a beginner using AS3. I'm trying to set up a simple Flash SWF validation of 2 text input boxes' data. In one box the user enters a username and in the second box they enter a password. This is sent to an ASP page which checks the name and password with a SQL Server database on my site. If their name and password are in the database, then the ASP send back to the SWF, "YES" and if not, "NO". The AS3 could then use an if/else: if "YES" then gotoAndPlay(2), or else display a message.The ASP script/page is completed. I've tested it with another program, and it works to check the DB and get back data.My AS3 is not working.e AS3 script to get it working.Here's the script so far. It get a trace of: [object URLRequest]. So I do not get any data back.
ActionScript Code:
stop()
nextBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextBtnClick, false, 0, true);

I'm having a problem checking the position of elements in an array.. for example if I have an array as follows :-I have drawn the number 68 (I always exclude the number drawn). I am checking this array of numbers to see if any exist in the same 'row'Say I have already drawn 61,62 and 63. I don't want this to 'return as true' when I check the array because yes the numbers exist but there is a gap (the numbers arSo I would like to accept if I had 68, 69, 70 because they are sequential from 68 but if I also have 72 I don't wish to accept that number.

Is there a way of checking all the strings in an Array in one time ex:
Code: Select allvar array:Array = new Array("string1","string2","...")
if(text_field.text == array[everything]){
doSomething()
}
I already tried "for(var i:Number = 0; i<=array.length; i++){ ..." it just doesn't work well enough enough.

How would I go about checking the length of a sub array? If I have a code like this:
ActionScript Code:
a = [["a0","a1", "a2", "a3","a4","a5"],
["a0","a1"]];
and I wanted to check the length of the second subarray (the answer would be 2) what would the syntax be?
Edit: the title should obviously be Multidimentional.

i load in AS3 data into flash and mantain their data type? Like receiving an array and even with arrays in it and recognizing that is an array instead of a standard string.
And if this is possible is it more reliable then using XML?

I'm developing a diet checker that users enter their recipe into an input field and compares it to an external text file with a list variables of ingredients and then underlines or highlights certain ingredients that would not be good to eat.
I need to check this input box for certain words and see if there are specific words before or after those words.The word "egg" WOULD BE highlighted/underlined as a bad ingredient but "egg white" would NOT have the "egg" part highlighted The word "fried chicken" WOULD BE highlighted/underlined but "baked chicken" or "broiled chicken" would NOT be highlighted The external variable text file lists the words I'm searching for and the words to replace them with but, the code I have cannot yet determine if the word "white" is after the word "egg" and then not have the "egg" part of the phrase underlined.

I'm trying to check through an array to see if any of my movie clips are currently on frame 15, before taking giant leaps I was trying to just get it to work with one var in the array before all of them, for some reason this code is not working, the trace is not coming up.
Code:
stop();
var anybtn:Array = [btn1_mc, btn2_mc];
trace(anybtn[1]);
btn1.onPress = function(){
if(anybtn[1]._currentframe == 15){
trace ("Array Check Working"); .....
If someone would like to go a step further and show me how to check through all movie clips. There will be many more than btn1_mc and btn2_mc so I will definitely need to use an array.

I have an array that has its values dynamically changed as a user interacts with buttons. I need to constantly check 6 index values from this array against each other so that if they are the same value they count as 1 but if they are unique they also count as 1.
E.g. IF all 6 index points = "A" I get 1 returned
If 3 of the index points = "A"
2 index points = "B"
1 index point = "C"
I get 3 returned to me
So I'm looking for a way to get a number returned to me ranging from 1-6 depending on the values.

I have an array. I have a button, when I press on it I want to be able to loop through every item in the array and see if EVERY item is equal to true, if so I want something to happen.
var allIsTrue = false;
_global.myArray = [false, true, false, true, false, true, false, false, false, false, false, false, false,false,false,true]
///would not do something
[Code].....
I thought I could loop through each one and if a false statement if found, the loop stops and the variable allIsTrue = false. But if the loop cycles all the way through allIsTrue = true.

So I'm importing this file called tbox.txt and in that file it has a variable, num, which equals 3. Now when I run the debug window, it comes back as num = "3". So its a string. so I do num=num-0 to make it a number instead of a string. And it doesn't work so I do a trace on num and it comes back as undefined.... which is what I dont understand, how can it be "3" and undefined at the same time.

I have bought Learning AS 3.0 (O'Reilly) but I have been having difficulty getting one of the tutorials to run. The tutorial shows how to record data from a microphone to a byte array, playback the saved data and save as a WAV file. For some reason, I can't get this working. When the swf runs, the Flash Settings screen doesn't pop up to request permission to access the microphone but I can still trace properties such as gain.
I've uploaded a zip containing all the classes and an FLA - just use RecordMicrophone_Example.as file as the document class. Here is the problematic area of the code:

I have No problems inserting data from flash to PHP into MySQL,it's sendind them back properlly.All I'd like to see happen is for one row of data to be inserted into a dynamic text field. here's what i've got if i access this php file, it prints out a vertical list from
a single MySQL row,I was happy.
$query = "select row from table";
$result = mysql_query($query, $db);
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))[code]...
and Instead of the vertical list (which i would love to see)i get an unparsed data array.
