ActionScript 2.0 :: Datatype Should A Function Return?
Apr 17, 2007The title of this post may not make much sense, let me explain. I have a function:
findSurface(origin:Point, vector:Point, attempts:Number):Point The function has an obscure use, but the idea is thus: given those three arguments, returns a point IF the 'line' (created by the origin and vector arguments) intersects the object the function is called on. [but that is another story...]
More importantly, if there is no point of intersection at all, what should the function return? Void? Null? Undefined? Object? Or can I use one of those return types instead of Point incase the function does not encounter an intersection?

View 3 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Return Different Type From Overridden Method?
Jan 13, 2010I'm extending the AS3 class Rectangle with a class called Bin. I want to override the Rectangle clone() method with a method that returns a Bin object, not a Rectangle object. If I try to override the clone method but specify Bin as the return type, I get a #1023: Incompatible override error. Here's my Bin class:
package {
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
public class Bin extends Rectangle {
[Code].....
This class works, but when I use the clone() method to create a new Bin instance, I get type errors when I try to use the Bin methods on the new instance.
How do I override clone() and send an actual Bin instance?

View 4 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Function Or Method To Return An Elements Instance Name?
Jun 19, 2011I'm getting into actionscript3 and was wondering if there was a way to make an 'onclick' type function that returns an id or an instance name. For example in jQuery you can do the following, which is great for then passing the id into an array or whatever you choose.
$('.menuButton').click(function(){
var collectedID = $(this).attr('id');
Is there an equivalent to this in AS3? I'm assuming grabbing the instance name would be the goal? I haven't run across ids in Flash yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Return Variable From Loop?
Sep 15, 2009I am trying to make a hangman game and have made an array with words and picked one at random each time the movie is run and then taken that word and broken it apart into each letter. I then made a loop to create a new TextField for each letter. Then I set them all to "visible = false"I want to get to the point where if the user selects a letter that is in the word that that TextField with said letter will become visible. Only I cannot figure how to get a function outside of the loop to see the variables (i.e. instance names of the TextFields) inside the loop.Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
var words:Array = new Array("HELLO","WORLD","JOE MAMA","ALIENS","ATTILA");
var letterArray:Array = new Array();

Flex :: Value In Datagrid Itemrenderers Set Data Method Doesn't Return The Correct Data?
Jan 10, 2012I've got a Gridcolumn in a Datagrid (Spark). The Column's dataprovider is a Number value that gets updated via Binding.Now, without an item renderer the cell displays the correct values.If I set an item renderer, I can't access the values in this renderer.My renderer looks like this, so nothing really do here (for now) but to trace the value, but the value is always NaN.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:GridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" width="100%" height="100%" >[code].......
without the renderer, the column displays the correct values, so apparently the DefaultGridItemRenderer works fine.As requested, here is my Datagrid;
<s:DataGrid id="dataGrid" dataProvider="{_listItems}">
<s:columns>
<s:ArrayList>[code]..........
_listItems is an ArrayList with instances of a model class, which has (amongst others) a property called change of type Number.
