I was wondering how I could build an array like this:
Code:
var songs:Array = new Array(
[playList: listName[song: songName, src: songSrc],[song: songName, src: songSrc],[song: songName, src: songSrc]],
[playList: listName[song: songName, src: songSrc],[song: songName, src: songSrc],[song: songName, src: songSrc]],
[Code]...
its just right now i have two arrays but the songs array isnt separated by anything..any ideas??
I'm trying to dynamically build this structure from my XML file:

Can I call a function when building an array in Flex 3?

MyArray is the result of a remote call to the database. I then prepare the array to be used in a dataGrid. I also want to call a function that provides a grade. Unfortunately, my function appears to be called only once. Is it possible to call a function when you're building an array? see the "Grade:" bit.

so my array is longer but u get the point. i want it to whenever i click on any letter, cause they are all on buttons, the one i clicked dissapears. i dont know how to work splice with the "i" variable,
I am curious if this is an okay implementation of the Array.filter() method.
[Code]...
I was not able to figure out an implementation of the callback function for the filter() method, where the callback was outside of the getGallery() function. I wonder if there is a way to get the isGallery function outside of the getGallery scope?
I have been trying for an hour to clone an array, It seems that nobody has a true reference on how to do it. Two arrays - movieClipArray 1 and movieClipArray2 I want to duplicate movieClipArray1 entirely so that when I addChild(movieClipArray2[0]), it doesn't take away from movieClipArray1 or reference it in any way.

I am trying to use the following code to convert an object read in from a ByteArray to an Array and store it:
var data:Object = ba.readObject();
var invObjects:Array = data as Array;
In debugging, I find that 'data' is indeed populated with the correct data and takes up memory and is in an Array friendly format. However, invObjects is NULL. How does merely saying 'data as Array' make the holding variable suddenly null?
I created an array in the var declarations with Code: var private eDrag:Array In a function that adds imported mcs to the stage, I also added code to push each to the array. Here is an example of a block of code loading the object with the part pushing the object to the array at the end:

I'm working with a web service and am returning an array to a field (that I set the data type as an Array). The result thus far is "[object Object]". How can I get the array values back out as a string?
View 0 RepliesI have an xml say in following format
[Code].....
What I should do is parse an xml and from its node name create object property and then create an object array based on those property. Am I able to make myself clear.
I'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.
I have an embedded xml file which I'd like to have a property like this:
<level missions="[m1,m2,m3,m4,m5]"/>
I'd like to know how can I convert the string value [m1,m2,...] into an array, in order to get its value by index (a[0] == "m1", a[1] == "m2", etc.)
I tried Array(xml.levels.level.@missions)[0], but to no avail :)
how to copy one xml object values from one xml object to another empty xml object.

I have a function that checks if 2 objects are touching OB1 and OB2, if they do touch it runs the rest of the collision code where OB1 is the character and OB2 is a tile that the player cannot pass through.
I came across an issue where i wanted sprites to be separate from the hitboxes but my collision code works by checking the height and width of an object (you guys know the drill).
So i have a Tile class with 2 parts to it, a bitmap and a movieClip.
So i have this setup(pseudocode):
Code:
loop
{
function collision (ob1 , ob2[loop].movieclip)
}
This should work right? But it ONLY works for the first object in the loop!
I have a class in which I have declared an array. The functions in that class are designed to make changes to the array, but it's not working:

Anything I do to customerCheck treats it as if it were a new array. This is especially obvious when using customerCheck.push in addCharToCheck() -- the trace always shows a blank array before push and an array with one object in it after the push... then next time it does the same. I know I'm making some sort of fundamental error regarding the scope of the array within the class but I just cannot find any good information on how to fix it! Moving to AS3 (been coding it for all of about 3 weeks) is a nightmare so far, and it seems to be the 'easy' stuff that causes me problems
Wrong section, moved to actionscript 3 I'm having trouble with my code. I keep getting this error

I believe it has something to do with the array, considering it works when I remove the array stuff. What i'm trying to do is to be able to move objects through an array with my gravitate() function in the Grav Class.
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onLoop, false, 0, true);
for(var i:uint=0; i < numParticles; i++){
var p:Grav = new Grav(5, 0xff0000, Math.random()*250, Math.random()*250);
addChild(p);

So every 25 milliseconds, a block is being created and it pushed into an array. The for loop cycles through the array and moves the x by 1 for each object in the array. If the x reaches past 300 pixels, then I want to delete the object from the game entirely. The way I'm doing it now yields an error, so what am I doing wrong and what should it look like inside of the "if (i.x > 300)" stuff?
Is it possible to push an object into a specific index in an array. Because I have a set array from 1-10 and each index has a unique purpose so I was wondering if it would be possible to do something like:
array[1].push(object);
If not whats the best way to do this? At the moment I have a seperate array and I just do array[1] = arrayOfObjects.length -1;
This program has a green ball (var ballplayer) that theplayer moves around in 3D space using the numpad keys (8, 2, 6, 4)to move the green ball (up, down, right, left). And it also usesthe up and down arrown keys to move the ball along the z-axis.There are also five red balls moving around the screen. As the redballs collide they turn blue. The red/blue balls are z-sorted, sothat the balls closer to the viewer appear in front. The balls allmove around in an invisible cube that they bounce off. Problem: How do I get the player's green ball to be z-sortedwith the other balls? I think I either need to add the green ballto the array called balls before it is sorted. Or create an arrayfor the green ball and then add the two arrays together (if that'spossible) before z-sorting. I tried to add the green ball directlyto the balls array but it didn't seem to work. I'm new to AS3 andprogramming, so I may have made a simple mistake.

I am trying to remove an object from an array. but from some reason its not working. I am under the impression that a splice accepts 2 parameters. the position of the array. and for parameter 2 , how many to delete from then on out.I just want to delete one array so I am doing this array. splice (i,0);but it isn't working. can someone tell me what i am doing wrong. enlighten me on how it suppose to work.
View 3 RepliesI have an application that takes some database info and shoves it into a datagrid, or chart. I've come across this error of having a single row and trying to use it in an array so I can use it in my app. Its come to my attention that its a pretty common problem that people face, but I don't seem to be able to get around it no matter what a try. My actionscript has a fucntion that trots of to the database via ASP, and returns the data in the event - as below (obv i've removed some stuff - load of calls are made to the mssqlQuery function - only the one I have trauma with is below)

I'm building a plugin and I'm using actionscript to save the selection of an object in an illustrator document and then reference it later.
var arrObj:Array=new Array();
arrObj.push(app.activeDocument.selection[0]);
If I select now the same object in the document and check if its in the array it returns a -1 for the index value.
var id:int=arrObj.indexOf(app.activeDocument.selection[0]);
trace (id); //-1
Why is the selection not considered the same object as in that of the array?
I am running a chat program which displays a list of users along with their status (online or offline). I wish to remove the list and display their status in their respective biographies, which are separate swfs. The usernames and status are stored in a remote shared object as an array.My question is, what is the most efficent way of extracting an individual user's current status from the SO array?[code]
View 2 Repliesok this is going to be tricky to explain. The scenario is i have an array like so Code: var Final:Array = new Array(); and i have a class with a bunch of variables grouped together (no function in this one) the original reason was for this to serve as a way making seperate instances (something like a structure from C++ i suppose) when needed but once i explain further it might just be making it more complicated. now what im doing is to use array.push to add new objects inside the above array. but the problem is every time i push i mostly likely will need to "create" a new instance of the object am i correct.but i cant do that sice the function that does will have a static name for the instance of the object i push into the array.
i hope that made sense, now what i need as a solution is some way to dynamically add unique instances of the object into the array without having to have unique names everytime. i can only see two logical method of doing this, one is to figure a way of dynamical naming the instances, or to have some sort of syntax like array.push(new Object(Copy stuff from a temporary Object)); But one more would be to avoid using objects all together but even that ive tried to figure out

I've made a little movie that reads items from an XML document and when you click on a thumbnail it adds the details and the price to a list and totals the amount. The problem I'm having is when you want to remove an item; I want to make it so that the items all shift up and there isn't a gap in there but at the moment they're overlapping sometimes when you remove something from the middle of the list.I'm not really sure where the problem lies because I've been staring at this for a few days now nothing's coming to me. It's probably in the below area, I think it's going haywire when the array gets remade but the num property of the remove button doesn't get updated.[code]I've attached all of the relevant files if anyone wants to take a look at it in action. Also, I know some of the code might seem a bit strange (like reading the XML in a loop and then pushing that into a different array) but there is a reason for it, I've stripped that part of the application out though.
View 0 Repliesso I'm trying to create this array property inside an object. here's my class:
[Code].....
what's been frustrating me, is that when I trace city1.adjacentNodes[0], what I get is 200 (the value of what's supposed to be in city2.adjacentNodes[0]). It's as if the last value that was entered to the last object's property overwrites all adjacentNodes property in all Node object..
I have some simple Sprites that I'm putting into an array. However, when I click on them I want to trace what their position is in the array. How do I go about doing that?
