ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - What's The Difference When Write A Temporary Variable

Nov 11, 2011

I would like to know what's the difference when I write a temporary variable like this (these are just examples): version1

[Code]...

What's wrong and right? Currently I write it like version 2 and I'm not sure if I should change it to version 1. I know most developers write like version 1 but I'm a little bit confused because I am totally unaware about version 1. If I use version 1 does that mean that my value is stored explicitly in a temporary variable that is cleared in every cycle?

Flash :: AS3 Performance Difference Between Function And Events

Jun 2, 2011

I working on a game project in Flash AS3. I need to pass data from one class (Game) to other class objects (Ships) on EnterFrame and performance is starting to be a issue. I was wondering is there a difference in performance between calling to the Ship a direct function or dispatching an event which the Ship can listen.

another question is where should I put the enterframe function. Is it better to use only one enterframe function and call the methods dispatch events from there, or it will be wiser to put the enterframe in the different objects (Ships)? note: some Ships are inactive most of the time.

Actionscript 2 :: Function's Local Variable Through A Concatenated Variable String?

Mar 7, 2012

how you would target a function's local variable through a concatenated variable string.For example:

var txt = "Hello World";
function testing(msg) {
var test1 = msg;[code].........

I'd expect the trace to be "Hello World" but rather is given "undefined". So if variables created outside functions are created on the main timeline, where are local function variables created and how would you access them?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Declaring A Variable In A Function: Either The Function Or The EventListener - Doesn't Work

Nov 27, 2009

I have a set of Cue Points in an FLV I'm playing. It's an interactive quiz, so the idea is that flash will change a variable, theAnswer, to a different letter depending on which question it is. The answer to question 1 is B, question 2 is D, etc. Either the cue point event listener isn't working, or else it is working and Flash isn't declaring the variables. 1120: Access of undefined property theAnswer. I literally can't find a single problem with my code. I have an almost identical Event Listener further down which works.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Declaring A Variable Inside A Function To Use Outside The Function?

May 5, 2011

I want to create a vector, then call a function that populates that vector with arrays. Fine. The only catch is the function itself will declare new array variables to put into the vector, but are these new array variables private to the function only?e.g. something like this

ActionScript Code:
public var vec:Vector.<Array> = new Vector.<Array>();
private function populateVec():void {

[code]....

Is this "kosher"? a was declared in the private function but added to something outside the function..?
