I've searched Google, but perhaps my search skills for this one are not kosher.
Created a simple class
ActionScript Code:
package Pic{
public class PLoader{
import flash.events.*;
[Code]....
URL never equates to anything. But if I trace it inside the class, it shows up correctly.
how do I wait until URL is set from inside the class before calling to the property?
basically i want to populate an array with some data, photoArray[count]= varLoader.data.nombre; the problem is that "nombre" is suposed to be a variable, this is inside a loop and i have "nombre = "pic" + count;" before it, but it wont work, how am i suposed to call it?

If I have a .mxml file that has a method in it and a public property, can I have the method execute whenever the property changes.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
[Code].....
In another .mxml file I have added this .mxml file like so:
<viewComponents:MyViewComponent myProperty="{myVariable}" />
To my knowledge, there are 3 options:1 - parent.publicPropertyOrMethod.2 - using static vars/methods.3 - dispatching events.Under best practise for OOP development, which is the "best" method? Are there any more?I dislike #1 and never use it as it and can easily descend into hideous parent.parent.parent references that are easily broken. #2 has it's own problems whereby attempting to get/set instance variables doesn't always work through a static function (I am yet to completely understand this). #3 is great for triggering methods (I use this the most) but sucks for altering class properties and suchlike.
View 1 Repliesi wanted to loop a service call so that it can dynamically populate my array..this is my sampple code

getEventsFromFacilityIDResult.token = currenteventService.getEventsFromFacilityID(facilityIDArray.getItemAt(i));
getEventsFromFacilityIDResult.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT,toShowArray);
}
then this is the function that is called by the service call
{
public function toShowArray(event:ResultEvent):void
{
var i:Number = new Number();
[code]....
the main thing that is happening here is only the last call will be added to showArray the other calls are disregarded..
I'm using a custom Class and I put it trace(myMC.x);. Sometimes it works just fine, but at other times it says that its a call to a possibly undefined property.
View 9 Repliesi have some actionscript that makes a
ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');
call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?
Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.
Currently:
Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);

Setting the text property of a flex DateField makes the selectedDate property of that DateField go to null.I need to set the text property so that I can use a particular format (DD-MMM-YYYY).
View 2 RepliesLately i discovered MATE (for Flex development) and was wondering: how do i bind a property in a view (actually a navigatorcontent component) to another property in a class so that they stay in synchronization (meaning that whenever the property in the class changes the property in the view also changes).
So if we have a view called Target.mxml and a property targertProp how do we bind it to the class called SourceClass with property SourceProp?
What's the difference between selectedChild property and selectedIndex property? I read the documentation, both seems to be setting currect active accordion. selectedChild can be only used in actionscript, but other than this, what's the difference?

View 1 RepliesI have a class Inhabitant with a property skin which is of type DisplayObject.
Within Inhabitant I need to access the x and y properties of skin using this method:
this["someProperty"];
Rather than:
this.someProperty;
This is fine with properties defined within Inhabitant but I'm not sure how I could do this for a property of skin. This obviously doesn't work but it might give you an idea of what I'm trying to do:
this["skin.x"];
The reason behind requiring this notation is that I have a function which I can parse a String though that will represent a property:
public function addTokenable(property:String):void
{
if(!isTokenable(property))
_tokenables[property] = true;
}
And then a related getter that will return a representation of this instance of Inhabitant as a String:
public function get token():String
{
_token = "class:" + getQualifiedClassName(this).split("::").join(".");

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:
AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);

I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.

I'm having trouble simulating a click call to a button(displayObject) thats generated via an API call( youtube as3 API). I have not seen any mention of security reasons as to why I can not simulate a click as long as something is registered with a click handler. Basically I checked to make sure the button made is listening to a mouse click event with:
trace(generatedButton.hasEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK)) which returns true
I proceed to than call this:
generatedButton.dispatchEvent( new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.CLICK, true) );
And nothing happens yet if I physically click the button it works. Is there some security measure that prevents something from being fake clicked unless its origin is strictly from the system mouse?
I even set a timeout call on the click function and moved my cursor over the button and let it fire in case it was an issue of the mouse having to over the object but still nothing. I am kind of stumped at this point.
I have an enterFrame action that I use on a graphic:
[Code]....
Because I want to use the above code more than a few times, I tried to make it a function.
[Code]....
But for some reason the function call does not work when I call it via an action on a graphic where initially the code worked when it was explicitly written and not called as a function.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
fadeOut();
}
why this is not working.I have an application with a new class I just created. The class loads, but will not call it's own internal function.
package com.parkerandkent.components.classic.photogallery {
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
"Test 2" will not fire here.And I get this error message:
CallTag.as , Line 10 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method init.
I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?
Does anyone know if there is a way to call a dispatchEvent call from inside of a static function?

View 1 RepliesJS-to-AS3 callbacks work in kinda asynchronous way right? So for example if I ask SWF to download some file, which may take some time (depending on the size of that file), and while it downloads it, ask it to do some other operation (suppose SWF has several callbacks for various purposes), what happens in this case? Does SWF continue to download file and handle my second request in a different thread maybe, or it crashes, or throws some error? I know this is a good case for some testing, but I wonder if anyone has already done that, or maybe there is public info on the case that I cannot find?
View 1 RepliesI have an issue with my eventListeners with the URLLoader, but this issue happens in IE, not in FF.
public function getUploadURL():void {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
request.url = getPath();[code]....
The issue is that my getBaseURL gets executed automatically after I have executed the code at least once, but that is the case only in IE. What happens is I call my getUploadURL, I make sure the server sends an event that will result in an Event.COMPLETE, so the getBaseURL gets executed, and the listener is removed. If I call the getUploadURL method and put the wrong path, I do not get an Event.COMPLETE but some other event, and getBaseURL should not be executed.
That is the correct behavior in FireFox. In IE, it looks like the load() method does not actually call the server, it jumps directly to the getBaseURL() for the Event.COMPLETE. I checked the willTrigger() and hasEventListener() on _loader before assigning the new URLLoader, and it turns out the event has been well removed.
I simplified my code. To sum up quickly: in FireFox it works well, but in IE, the first call will work but the second call won't really call the .load() method; it seems it uses the previously stored result from the first call.
I have a function in Flex which has three function in it.
public function update():void
{
A(); \Dispatches a event with Remote Call
