ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Object Functions From Another Object?
Jan 18, 2011
So I have two movie clips linked with classes- one with the class "theList" and one with the class "challengeBar". I need to use a function in challengeBar to access a function in the theList. They are both immediate children of the stage.so for now I have this (in the challengeBar class)-
public function populate(){
this.textBox1.text = myList.dequeue();
}
should it be something along the lines of root.myList.dequeue? or stage.myList.dequeue? How can I access that function?

I am developing an application with Flex for the GUI and Restlet for the webservices. I have a strange problem. I put my XML as a property on a generic object, and send it as part of a POST request. But in the Restlet webservice, this XML is irretrievable. How do I retrieve it? I tried initialising the received Representation object to a DomRepresentation, but thats not working. If I put the received Representation object into a Form object, then getFirstValue is returning that XML as a string! I noticed that the contentType of the HTTPService was application/www-form-encoded so I set it to application/xml and its not helping either. I use restlet 2.0m6 and here is the code snippet that I use -

I'm trying to set up a menu. Because this menu can have a varying number of entries, I'm generating it instead of hard-coding it. The Menu object contains an Array of MenuEntry objects, and each MenuEntry has a framework.Button object which contains the text and box that actually gets drawn to the screen. I can add a MouseEvent.Click event to the Button, but not the MenuEntry. If I do it that way, though, I'm unable to access the data in the MenuEntry object that contains the button, so I don't know which MenuEntry was clicked.
The only solution I can think of involves checking the mouse position against the position of each MenuEntry, depending on the number of Menu Entries. This does not seem like the right way to do it, though, as it is not scalable. I tried having the MenuEntry class extend the Button class, so theoretically, the MenuEntry itself could dispatch mouse click events, but that didn't work.

So I have this Photo class than handles loading a pic, and dispatches an event when the loading is done with:[code]which is simple and works, but now I'd like to make something more advanced. I'd like to dispatch the load ratio.So far I have extended the Event class, with my own EventRatio class, and I can put properties on that class. Which is cool, but I need something more dynamic than just sending a fixed value.So, what is the best way to connect the Loader object of the Photo object, with the EventRatio object?

I'm new to the object oriented stuff and I'm trying to learn how it works. Here's what I've started on - it's led to a few dilemmas. I have one flash file and two .as each with one class. In the timeline of the fla file, it reads:
ActionScript Code:
var FileObject:ScriptFile = new ScriptFile();
function onEnterFrame(){
FileObject.CallInput();
}
Call input is a function in "ScriptFile.as" that calls another function in "Input.as";
ActionScript Code:
class Input{
public function Input(){
} public function keyListener(target:Number):Number{
[Code] .....
In output, when I press Left, it will say -5 over and over again, and I'm trying to add to xpos value but that isn't happening.

Been doing some actionscript magic lately, done a nice interpolator class. The class, whenever an update occurs, calls a previously specified callback function. Normally, setting a variable of funCallback:Function and calling it works fine. However when I wanted to specify an *object's method* as the callback for the interpolator, it apparently called it as if it would be a static method.
And it isn't.What I need to do, simply speaking, is to be able to call an object's public method, having just th object's reference and function name, just like the second variant of setInterval does ( the one having "object, string" as the first two params, not "function").

I have MCs loaded from the Fla library through my main class. These are drag objects. When one of these is clicked, I want the player to run a function that will disables some based on one selected. When I tried the obvious reference, I had an error. I've been advised to add these to an array, but I can't even do that.
Code:
import HO_42;
I set the objet to a variable above the constructor function:
Code:
private var office:HO_42;
The constructor calls a function that loads the objects to the stage (and this works fine if I don't try to access the object), here is an example of the load and access code:
Code:
office = new HO_42();
addChild(office);
office.x = 441.9;

I have an object, myObj, that has no key/value pairs, only elements. When i trace it out i get the elements listed inbetween curly braces {item1, item2, item3, item4} I can access the first element by calling myObj.first( ) and I guess there are other methods I could try to call on the object - such as myObj.last( ) - but I can't seem to access the other elements in the object.

So ive made a custom message system for my game and the scrollpane component requires me to have the info inside one movieclip. I have a couple of textfields there that i want to change to some variables on demand. The vars are in an external as file and im able to reference them well on the main timeline. The problem is when im inside the scrollable object, all the vars return blank instead. This is the code which is placed inside the object:

I have a class whose primary purpose is to create and manage other classes in my game. One of its variables is an int that keeps track of the players money. It is also creating towers which are objects of their own. However the tower classes that it creates need to have a way of accessing the money integer (so they know if the player has funds for upgrading them)
