ActionScript 3.0 :: "Pause" Code Execution, And Wait For Result?

Apr 17, 2009

Visual Studio had a command "showDialog()" which allowed you to show your form as a dialog box on the screen. The advantage to this was that the code calling the dialog box would pause, stopping execution entirely until the dialog box closed. The benefit was you could write your code as follows (made "actionscriptey"):

Code:
var result:DialogResult = form1.showDialog();
if (result == DialogResult.OK)

Flex :: Pasting A Large Amount Of Text In A TextArea Leads To A Script Execution Timeout

Dec 23, 2010

(Flex 3) I have a TextArea component which needs to hold the user's clipboard content. The TextArea does the job relatively well for most cases but when pasting a large amount of data, I can't seem to get the content in the component at all due to the script execution timeout.

I've done a fair deal on investigation to try and hopefully find how I could make this work. I found that the TextArea is using a IUITextField (which is in my case an instance of TextField at runtime) do handle the job of obtaining the pasting data and then throws an event when it is done.

I have found no way to take a look at the source of TextField as it is a class in the playerglobal.swc library.

Is there a way for me to maybe see the source of that class or is there something I'm missing in my approach to figure out a way to make this work?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Optimizing Code Execution?

May 7, 2002

I have written a small bit of actionscript code which is designed so that small objects fly across a window from left to right at varying speeds, and then get moved back again with different attributes once they reach the right edge. The code is fully functional.My problem is that this eats a huge amount of system resources, and runs slowly on a 1Ghz machine. Is there a more efficient way to achieve this?

Flex :: Measure Various Phases Of Code Execution?

Aug 12, 2011

Is there a way to measure the average time it takes my code to run and each frame to render for my Flex app? More specifically, I know how to use getTimer() but I'm not sure about which events I should listen to in order to do this. I was reading this post and am not sure how you'd figure out how long the actual rendering took (it would seem like it may be the time between the RENDER event fires and the next ENTER_FRAME event fires, but I'm not sure). Also, not exactly sure where the user code happens, or whether I should care about EXIT_FRAME and FRAME_CONSTRUCTED. [code]...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Code Execution Delay For Unknown Reasons?

May 8, 2009

The following code is on a movieclip being used as a button.The code is pretty simple. Originally the code was just the code after the gap. This code loaded up a movieclip (filtermc) off-stage that runs through an xml file and preloads a form. This takes a second or two, and when finished that newly loaded movie tweens into position. The tween code is on a frame in the 'filtermc' movieclip.

The problem is that in the second or two that it takes for this movie to load, people could click the button a second time which messes up the form/movieclip (everything on it is unresponsive, I think because two movieclips having the same name)

Anyway, I decided to solve this problem by loading a transparent blocker movieclilp in front of this button to keep it from being double clicked. This blocker clip is just a movie that has an empty onRelease function in it so that the button below it cannot receive any new clicks. Also, the button goes to another frame where it says "loading..." to provide feedback to the user.

The Problem When I click this button, there is a delay of about 2 seconds before the semitransparent (for testing) blocker appears. In fact it appears just as the filtermc clip has started it's tween into place.

It is almost like this code is running out of order. The traces come back in the correct order so I know it is not running out of order, but why the 2 second delay before the blocker movie gets loaded up? The button also takes 2 seconds to show the "loading" frame. The traces also have the same 2 second delay.

If I comment out the second half of the code (the filtermc part) then the blocker movieclip pops up instantly and the button changes frame instantly.

PHP Code:

on (release) {
//problems occur if button is pressed twice before filtermc scrolls into view
//this button must be disabled until the filtermc finishes loading

ActionScript 3.0 :: Allowing The Movie To Run During Complex Code Execution

Jul 17, 2009

I have this complex XML processing code that builds up thousands of objects on stage. This might take some time. Perhaps not that big time to bring up that message about slow code execution, however signifficant enough to cause interface uncomfortabilities. I understand very well that I can restructure my code in order to save all contextual variables, all counters in an object that is passed down to onEnterFrame events that process it a little bit and then pass it further, until the job is done. However, before I go into dissecting my code, I wanted to make sure if there really is not a way how tom tell flash player do it's frame rendering routine while a complex code is executed in background (without splitting it up).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Code Execution - Flash Application Hangs For 3 Or 4 Seconds?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Forcing Code Execution Order In Conditional Statements?

Feb 17, 2010

I have created an image gallery where each "slide" is an image loaded by one UILoader component. Everything works, except I noticed that as a user it is annoying to wait for each new slide to load.So, even with my limited knowledge of AS3, I decided to figure out a way to load the next upcoming image before the user requests itone for odd numbered slides, one for even numbered slides. That way, when the user is viewing a slide with an odd number in the first loader, the next image can be loaded into the second (currently invisible) loader and ready to go when requested button would simply toggle the visibility of these two loaders.

function nextButton(event:MouseEvent):void
{
imageNumber++;

ActionScript 3.0 :: [flash Cs4] - Swc And Code Execution - Stop() Commands Don't Get Executed?

Sep 23, 2009

I'm trying this:

- create some asset in library, export for as in frame 1

- export an assets.swc, and set the relative library path publish option in othes flas that use assets.swc

- Then, there's a Main.as document class that uses other classes tha use the assets in assets.swc

Problems start when some asset has some code inside. Say, a button with stopped event states. Well, the stop() commands don't get executed, so the buttons are effectively instantiated, but their timeline plays until the end. Probably because they're not initialized in the timeline (being exported in frame 1, so, in fact, before).Usually, without swc, to solve this problem one would put all assets in frame 2 and then check for cuttentFrame == 3 (http:url...). This is what I'd really like to avoid. And from here the question: is that possible? Is there a way (in flash, not flax) to use swc to properly get assets containing some simple code (usually stop commands) in their timeline?

Flex :: Limit Execution Time Of Services With Weblogic/Blazeds/Spring?

Sep 20, 2011

I'm working on a project where we use Flex, Spring, Hibernate and Blazeds,all working on a Weblogic server.Everything works fine and we call services at the server side from the flex app without problems,but now we need to limit the time who spent the execution of the services to 2 seconds, if any service takes more than 2 seconds the server must return a timeout to the flex app.I've been searching for a way to do this with the blazeds configuration, but it looks that it's not possible.Is there any way to achieve this? I've thought in add a filter to the blazeds requests so it can control the timeout... But I can't find any example and I don't have enough knowledge of filter.
