ActionScript 3.0 :: Class For All Functions
Jul 12, 2009I would like to create a class that simply houses all my custom functions that I commonly use. These are functions, not methods tied to a specific object. Is this possible?

Actionscript 3 :: Big Performance Difference Between Using Class With Static Functions Vs Instantiated Class?
Mar 22, 2012I'm wondering if anyone has experience with if there is a big difference in performance in ActionScript 3 between keeping a class with only public static functions, and utilizing those functions often (as in a frame event at 30fps), and in turning the class into a "normal" class of which I instead make an instance and call the functions via the instance instead.

Feb 19, 2010I realize this is kind of an odd issue, but I am wondering if there's any way to get Flash to allow me to access a class's static functions using a class variable that points to the class. Example:I create a class called FooClass that has a static function named fooI then create a variable of type Class that points to it
Code:
var class:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("FooClass"));
However, when I try to call foo() using the variable, it errors saying the function

Two Functions In A Class Be Accessed Simultaneously In AS3?
Jun 7, 2010In a custom queue, there's a push() and a pop() function. The pop() may be called any time on an Event.COMPLETE, so does this mean that code can be running in push() and pop() simultaneously? If so, is there a way to prevent the code from being run in both functions at the same time?

Nov 3, 2010I have a web application created using Flash Pro and I want to use external ActionScript files to support it. I have a package with multiple classes. I want to be able to create utility functions to do things across classes. How do I make these functions accessible to any of the classes? I know I can create a class with these functions and then instantiate the class with a dummy variable to be able to access the methods but is there a better way?

Nov 30, 2006I was wondering if they found a better way of allowing the use of variables outside of an on function. For example in the script below I can use the variable bounds inside the target.onEnterFrame function because it's declared inside the constructor. However I can't use m_Bounds even though it's declared in the class.[code]...

Actionscript 3 :: Include Non-specific Functions In To Class?
Sep 26, 2011Say I have the following set up of classes.
Road - extends MovieClip Car - extends Road
Controller - extends Car
And I want to incorporate some common Mathematical functions in them all to make them faster e.g.(replacing Math classes with some speedy bitwise versions).
What is the best way to incorporate these functions into all of them without writing the functions in the classes or extending from class of the functions. Is importing the class into each the fastest way or is their a better way?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Functions From One Custom Class To Another?
Sep 9, 2009I've made two custom classes ("banana" and "box"). As I start my application I create two new objects from these classes - first I create a banana object and then a box object. The banana class/object has a property/variable ("weight") that I set with information from an external XML file, thus it takes a while for it to receive a value.
My problem is that my box object needs to access the "weight" property of the banana project, just after the box object has been created. The problem is that the banana object hasn't finished initialising when I make the request from the box object...
Is there a way of either check the status of another class (initialisation status that is), or is there another way of preventing the box object to either be created before the banana object is initialised?

Dec 14, 2004Short description of my project:I'm making a "flash-car-damage-registration-program" where a user can click on a part of a car, make two choices (from two comboboxes) that describes the damage, and then save it in a datagrid withing flash.I have split up the code in different class files:I have a damage.as class file that describes the damage and its properties.I have a carPart.as class file that extends the Movieclip class. This sets all the propertiesof each carpart and where the roll-over/out eventlisteners are, pluss som escriptive text to each carpart. This works the way I want it to. This is just to quickly give you an idea of what I'm working on.So to the real question or problem: I have a LoadMyXmlData.as class file where I load some xml data, this works fine. A function in this class takes a combobox and a xmllist as parameters.
I want to populate the mentioned comboboxes from the xml data. Both comboboxes are on the stage within another movieclip, but I can seem to access them. (yes, they have instancenames etc) I get error 1120: 'Access of undefined property'. I have tried ways like: containingMc.comboboxMc' and so forth but no luck. I have been searching the web for days for a solution to my problem, but nothing so far.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Calling Functions Within Class Definitions?
Apr 29, 2007This seems like it would be really easy but for some reason it's not working.
I have a class file, class DataSet, which right now only takes an XML file, parses it, and pushes the XML into an array:
The object is instantiated and an XML file is passed back to the object definition. If the XML file is successfully loaded, the class should then called the function parseXML() and put the data into the array.
But for some reason, parseXML() is never called. I have no idea why this isn't working, because the syntax checks out and I've seen millions of other files where functions call other functions.
Here's the class file:

IDE :: Compiler Doesn't See Functions And Vars From Class?
Jan 7, 2010Lately I changed Flash CS3 for CS4. In older version classes written by me worked fine. However, in CS4 I have serious problem with them. Compiler states that part of my functions and vars are undefined, which is not true. I tried everything - changing name of class, functions, moving class file to different directory, removing package. I even counted { to check if they have pairs. I'm really out of options what can cause those errors.
Here are error given by compiler:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Are All Functions Included From A Static Class
Feb 7, 2012To rephrase my question: if you have a class with a bunch of static methods and you use one of them in your code, does the whole class get compiled with your movie? I suspect that it would be and, if that's the case, wouldn't it be better (from a file-size perspective) to use packaged functions instead?
