Is it possible to create an object from a class with a dynamic name? I have the name of the class in a string, but I want to create an instance of that class.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a quick access to a object with a String as it's key, so I wrote:
"var map:Object = {};
map["key1"] = object1;
map["key2"] = object2;
..."
Is there any difference about the performance between long key and short key(the length of the String used as a key)? If the key contains many charactors, will it slow down when accessing that object?

I'm creating a CMS(Content Management System) tool so that users can change text and the changes be reflected in a text window in flash . The text that the user enters in the CMS tool will be stored in the database.
In flash I want to parse the string that I get from the database and look for URL strings that start with http "http://www.someurl.com" and parse out that substring.
For example the string could be "Please vist my site at http://www.site.com". I would want to parse out the http://www.site.com
If I find this url string I want to pre-pend the a href tag <a> and append the closing </a> tag to the string so that this link will be clickable from the textfield.
Does flash have an object that deals with Regular Expressions? I've looked at the String object in flash but not sure how to achieve this task

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a boundary for a player object, controlled with arrow keys, in my game using the main stage's height and width. For example, one test point is at the top edge of the player object's bounding box so that when the player object's head touches the stage's top edge, the player can't move anymore to the north. The player object is manually instantiated to the center of the stage by using the Flash stage editor so it will start at the center before the program starts.The problem is that right at the start of the program, I can no longer move the player object up or down with the arrow keys but I can still move it left or right. The intention is to allow the player to move north until the player object's head touches the top edge of the main stage.[code]

View 3 RepliesIv been having some real trouble lately attempting to create an object panorama, emphasis on the object version, iv found plenty of tutorials on how to do regular panoramas (ie, from one spot looking outwards, i want to make one of something looking inwards orbiting it) iv used flash quite loosely before in the past and have come to the conclusion from various articles on the internet it is capable and probably the best way to make a small file size.
basically what i wanted was to have it so that when u click and drag side to side it would show around the object, im not too worried about how fast around it goes or if it accelerates the further away from the centre its dragged, just the main control im looking for. at the moment i have 180 odd pictures of my model im looking to orbit, or less or more depending on what people think is better (its a 3d render i made so i can choose how many pictures it has) or iv already got it stitched together into a video.
the ideas id already had were that it would load each picture into an empty movie clip based on the frame number, ie it would load model001.jpg on frame 1, model020.jpg on frame 20 etc etc, but that didnt work as i suspected and it seems to flicker which i probably should expect as it has to load each picture each time. my other idea was that if its possible to make a movie scrubber, and load the video of the orbiting object in, then just use a scrubber to control moving it around but i couldnt find anything (that wasnt to buy) on how to do that.
I am creating an actionscript video player in Haxe and to avoid the asyncError I am trying to create a custom Object. How do I do this is Haxe? The client property specifies the object on which callback methods are invoked. The default object is the NetStream object being created. If you set the client property to another object, callback methods will be invoked on that other object. Here is my code.
public function new()
{
super();

How do I create an object with ActionScript if I only know the name of it? I have a class that should add an object as a "grid" and place it accordingly, so if I have a Square box that I want to place by 4x4 on the screen it calculates it automatically. Well, that's the goal anyway.
I have a function in my Grid class, Add_Background that accepts an Object to be added as the grid background. I use a movieclip (don't know if I can use a graphic element).
I call the function myGrid.add_background("name_of_my_movieclip") or myGrid.add_background(new name_of_my_movieclip());
The first one I don't know how to use, I don't know how the syntax for creating an object this way (etc: grid[a][b] = new name_of_my_movieclip() doesn't work...) so there has to be some other kind of way on how to pass this to the function and that it knows what to do with it.
The other thing I've tried is passing the object to the function (new Grid_Background() etc) but I can't clone the object anyway I try it and the ActionScript reference site says there's an mx.utils.ObjectUtil that I can use for this, but I have no access to it that I know of (tried it).
Is it better to create a new Object or to reset the same object over and over again?

We have an Adobe Flex client talking to a .NET server using WebORB. Simplifying things, on the .NET side of things we have a struct that wraps a ulong like this:
public struct MyStruct
{
private ulong _val;
[Code]....
I've tried playing with custom WebORB serializers, but the documentation is a bit scarce. Is this possible? If so how?
I think I can work out how to serialize it, but not the other way. Do I need to write a Custom Serializer on the the Flex end as well?
What I want to create is a lightbulb, with a pull-string next to it. When you pull the string, the lightbulb turns on, and when you let go, the string bounces up and swings around, causing the lightbulb to swing slightly as well.I tried to do this with prefabbed animations, but it just doesn't look right. I know i have to code it so a movie clip of a single dot spawns several instances of itself, and I can do that... but then I get lost.

I need to know how to call or reference (not sure of the terminology) an object by way of a string. What I'm trying to do is create a loop that will add event listeners to objects named "portfolio1" through "portfolio15", and use a function.[code]If I could just reference these fricken objects through a string and an integer, I could set up a small loop like this to make the button "portfolio1" bring up a big jpeg of "bigportfolio_1", and "portfolio2" bring up a big jpeg of "bigportfolio_2", ext. While yes, I could just go through them all and set up event listeners to each one individually, but its REALLY inefficient. Also, I am still working on more advanced actions (like scrolling through the portfolio pics chronologically) that absolutely requires a different reference method.
