View 9 RepliesI'm literally new in AS3 and slowly trying to migrate in thats why im here seeking for help. Can someone help me how to access/control a certain public variable in a loaded swf from the main swf? this problem has been paralyzing me for days. (sigh...) [code]...
View 1 Replieshow bad is this practice? I am having trouble getting to some stuff so i am taking the easy way out
Code:
private static var _interrupted:Boolean;
public static function setInterrupted(value:Boolean):void{
_interrupted = value;
}
is it better to use public variables or public static variables?

I have a class called (DropDown.as)In that class I haveCode:public static const DROPDOWN_CHANGE:String = "Drop Down Changed";In my document class (Main.as) I instantiate my class and try and trace my public static constant but it outputs undefined:
Code:
var dropDown_mc:DropDown = new DropDown();
trace("Public Static Constant" + " " + dropDown_mc.DROPDOWN_CHANGE);

I'm setting up a class of public static vars that are to be BitmapData.
The problem I'm having is I can't seem to reference the vars dynamically in an array, making it impossible to give them values without some serious procdedural style coding.
This is what it looks like
package com.myPackage{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
[Code]....
Should I assume it's because my array is a private var and placing references to public static vars is illegal? Is somebody gonna call the flash police on me?
Im just starting to get my hands into Action Script v2, and Im having a really hard time working out what the difference is between Public, Private and Static Variables, it seems that declaring variables in these types makes no difference what so ever to the avaliablility of my variables... Could someone be so kind as to put me on the right path?
View 2 RepliesI have a question about classes. I just learn that static means that functions and/or properties are specifics to a class, but is it a synonym of private? And why statics (not available to any instances?) properties and/or methods can have a public (available anywhere else (timeline)) access modifier? PS: I just start with classes.
View 6 RepliesI have declared some public static consts within a class Instrument. So that I can hopefully access them like Instrument.SAX, instrument.HARP, etc. etc. But when I go to trace out or compare the consts, it gives me this error:
1058: property is write-only
How can I return an object with an update data, that is pass in to a public static function?
GetDate.dayName(MyDate.setDate(1984,3))
//MyDate with new info (year, month) will be pass into GetDate.dayName
package hwang.time

I'm kind off oblivious as to what I'm doing wrong here... I have two classes: - Alley - AlleyCat

Is it possible to add my own custom property to the flash.display.Bitmap using a public static method? I'm trying to write a bitmap utility that does something to a bitmap, and stores a Number property onto it afterwards.
[Code]....
I'm still learning AS3.0 OOP, I think that this can't be done with this method. I think I have to make a new Class that extends 'Bitmap', add the prop there, and then in the Main.as make a new instance of that class, point to the target Bitmap, and run the method in the extended 'Bitmap' class (?).
I'm tryng to make a public static method call another method, but Flash throws error 1180, sayng that the method called by the static method is undefined.
Code: Select allpackage
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
I think I've made some fundamental error here... I have a public variable a in class A, and I want to access it in class B, but I cant (access of possibly undefined property...) now every time I want to refer to a variable in class A I need to pass the variable reference to class B's constructor

I have been working on a Flex Mobile application using Flash Builder 4.6. I have 2 mxml 'views' in my project. In one mxml file, i have a function that grabs xml data. In my other mxml file, I have a refresh button that when depressed is suppsosed to call the function in the first mxml file in order to once again grab the xml data. I dont know how to call that function from outside the mxml file it is housed in. [UPDATE #2]* I thought I should share some more details about my issue.
It is a reddit client mobile app. It fetches the feeds, etc. In my main view called RedditReaderHomeView.mxml, I am using a splitViewNavigator spark component to house two other views like so:

How to access a public method in the swf loaded in a new ApplicationDomain?
ActionScript Code:
var appDomainA:ApplicationDomain = new ApplicationDomain();
*
var contextA:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(false, appDomainA);
var loaderA:Loader = new Loader();
loaderA.load(new URLRequest("application2.swf"), contextA)
I want to access a public method in application2.swf from the main swf that loaded it.
I have a flex application which collects data entered by the user and posts it off to a web service I have running on a back end server. The flex application does not authenticate users (it's available for anyone to use without setting up an account) and communicates to the web service using HTTPS. There is an XML firewall in place for preventing certain malformed requests, DoS attacks etc and the web service validates all data received from the client.
If I was to sign the content then I could use the XML firewall to verify the signature but I assume that any certificate type data I embed in the client could be extracted out of the flex app through some means of de-compilation. My question is, is there any way of limiting calls to the web service to only those from my flex client? I understand that a user could input bad information but I'm really trying to prevent another client or 'bot'.
How would you go about calling the public properties and methods of a SWF you load in actionscript?
I have been using stackoverflow for years to answer my programming questions so I wanted to give back by writing a guide to an issue I had a lot of trouble figuring out. This is my first user guide so tell me if there is anything I can do to improve it.
I have searched for this everywhere but it seems like every answer is either overcomplicated or simply does not work, and I know for sure there should be a more simple way of achieving what I need. So, until today, I have always coded from within the timeline. But now I realise why I should code in separate class files. However, I still want to include snippets of code in the timeline for simplicity's sake.

How do I acsess public var/functions in the document class?
View 7 RepliesNo idea what I'm doing wrong here, it just won't let me access any of my public methods on my class. I just keep getting "Error 1180: call to a possibly undefined method"!
If I run the same function in the constructor of the class everything is fine.

i wonder why i am unable to access the public properties of this custom class the public var w:Number; and the Public var h:Number; i am tracing them and on an instance of the PreLoader() Class.. and ia m getting NAN;
View 12 RepliesI have the below script as part of a small application I'm building. The script just creates cue-points along a movies timeline so we can add events etc to those cue-points.
[Code]....
It's creating the cue-points well, although I'd like to use the below variable outside of this function.
Code: var stampName When I try and use it I get an access of undefined property error, which I believe relates to the variables being private and within the function - but I can't seem to find a method to get this varibale public.
ActionScript Code:
//such is a simply version of the hierachy of my project
// in DrawingTool.as[code]........
it's settled, why? must I give the explicit and full referrence to access the static property.
I've summarized my issue in the following [code]...
1119: Access of possibly undefined property mc through a reference with static type Class.
I have the following inheritance structure:
var environment:AvEnvironment = new AvEnvironment(...);
addChild(environment);
environment.addChild(new Terrain());
environment.addChild(new Player());
I am trying to access a public property from AvEniroments class through the Player class, however I'm getting an undefined property error (#119). I've tried the following:
this.x = AvEnvironment.xs // public property in this class
this.x = parent.xs
I've also tried something like this:
var ev:AvEnvironment = AvEnvironment(parent);
this.x = ev.xs
but I get a TypeError. Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I'm trying to change a static variable in the class's constructor. At the start I have:
public static var mainReference:Main;
public static var timerReference:Timer;
public var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
This is so my static functions can access main and timer. At Main's constructor I have:
mainReference = this;
timerReference = timer;
The problem is, the first gives no error when I compile it, but the second tells me Access of undefined property (timerReference).
