ActionScript 2.0 :: Convert String To Array Path?
Jun 26, 2008
is it possible to do this? And if so how? the xml is converted to an Object using XLEFF; there are five nodes en the specified path: var path:String = "mCb.mXMLloaderObj.dm.lang[0].menu[0].node.length"; trace(path) this will offcourse output just the path as a string. But I want to trace something like: trace(Object(path)); and hopefully get the number 5, which represents how many nodes there are in the specified path in the Object. Is this possibly? Because I can't find anyway to do this

The solution should be straight forward but I cannot find it, my problem it's that I'm reading a xml, and one of the properties inside the xml it's a Bitmap path(string), when I`m reading this xml I would like to convert this string to a Bitmap Obj so I can use through my MXMLs.

I have the following string: "2,26,17,33,6,14,9,29,1"
And an array of int, usedIds.If I do:
private var usedIds:Array;usedIds = "2,26,17,33,6,14,9,29,1".split(',');
I get an array of strings. How can I do it to get an array of int?

Is there a nifty function that will convert a String to an Array in AS(1 or 2)?
Something like:
myString = "1, 2, 4, 3";
myArray = myString;
And then myArray ends up like:
myArray = [1, 2, 4, 3];
Im trying to add the content of a loaded textfile into an array, that's why.

When importing a variable from an external .txt file, I know that it will not properly import an array. I rember seeing a way to convert the string to an array, but I can't find it. Does anyone know the code?
I have used the search button to attempt to find the answer, however that proved fruitless. I know i have seen it somewhere around here, but I just can't find it again.
P.S. Does anyone know if you can import a .txt file from the net if it is imported into a .exe file running on a computer? The computer would have a connection to the internet at the time. would I just put an absolute path into the file parameter? Like: [URL]

There's an array, lets called it arr1. There is a switch, that pushes argument to this array, but after the switch ends, I'm stuck at join("").split("");
var arr1 = [];
switch (myString) {
case "apple": {
arr1.push("apple");
break;
}}}
arr1 = arr1.join("").split("");
I know is simple, but I never had experience with arrays in flash before, I just realized join("") was used to convert the Array to string, but isn't split reversing this?

into a real Array, so I started looking in forums, but I couldn't find it, so I wrote my own

I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.

I'm just trying to make a utility function to convert an array collection into a string.
Supose my item within the array collection (named 'ac') is something like:
Code:
var ac:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([{property:'foo'},{property:'bar'}]);
I can get the items property if I use a 'for' loop like:
Code:
var acToStr:String = "";
for (var item in ac)
{

I'm trying pause a video netstream within a MovieClip with a button (ppBtn). This works when I hardcode the movieclip path (like: etc. media2.ns.togglePause() ), but when I use a string in the path to access the MC's netstream it doesn't work. I've tried serveral ways to cast the string to a movieclip.name but I always trace a "null" or "undefined" of the mcpathI've tried to cast the string as a MC in different ways without any luck:
this[myString]
MovieClip(myString)
mySting as MovieClip()

I have a string that is similar to a path, but I have tried some regex patterns that are supposed to parse paths and they don't quite work.
Here's the string
f|MyApparel/Templates/Events/
I need the "name parts" between the slashes.
I tried (w+) but the array came back [0] = "f" and [1] = "f".
I tested the pattern on [URL] and it seems to work correctly.
Here's the AS code:
var pattern : RegExp = /(w+)/g;
var hierarchy : Array = pattern.exec(params.category_id);
params.name = hierarchy.pop() as String;

I have a situation where I am trying to build a path to an xml node like this:
Code:
var personName:Object = ["xmLoader.xmlData.profilepage.p"]+num+[".p1name"];
Where "num" is a number passed into to the function. What is happenning is when I trace out personName after this code I get:
"xmLoader.xmlData.profilepage.p2.p1name"
instead of the value that resides at that node name (I can trace out p1name which is John from my processed xml earlier in the code).

We need to make kind of a path animation out of a string (curved lines) drawing. The designer provided me with this: [URL]. We need a revealing (growing) type of animation that generates from the right, follows every corner and ends up in the left with that giant piece of "mop". Is there a way to do this professionally? Tried the old frame by frame masking, but it looks odd. Shouldn't be some AS3 libraries that just work with paths or that draw paths?

I've got a problem with a function i'm using to dynamically move movieclips around - its like this at the mo:
function wjump(number) {
_root.content.aboutus.webwizard.targetY = startPos[number];
}
where startPos is an array with numbers.
I want it to be like this:
function jump(target, number) {
target.targetY = startPos[number];
}
so any clip can be moved as long as it has a targetY variable. But it won't work for some reason. Is there some sort of special syntax i should use like [] brackets? I tried this around the target in function body but it did not work.

This should be fairly simple but I understand why it doesn't work. I am hoping there is a clever way to do the following: I have a string 'movieclip1.movieclip2' I have a container movieclip - Container. Now to evaluate the string normally I would look something like: this.container['movieclip']['movieclip2']
Because clip2 is a child of movieclip. But I would like to parse or evaluate the string with the dot syntax to read the string as a internal path. this.container[evaluatedpath]; // which is - this.container.movieclip.movieclip2 Is there a function or technique to be able to evaluate that string into an internal path?
