ActionScript 3.0 :: Clean All Existing Objects From Memory
Nov 30, 2009
I tried to include a free photogallery based on as 3 in to a free flash template site. Now, if u click photogallery, the photogallery have to build up!
I have following problem: -If u click the photogallery a second time, it doesnt work correctly! (I think it has something to do with the existing objects from the first call!.. The second thing is, it uploads the pictures for the gallery 2 times. So i have 40 picture instead of 20 (20 of 20 are the same :/)....
I tried this but with no succes: (i tried to remove the objects with remove child...Its the last part of this code)....
Code:

I am building a website that has a separate .swf for each page of the site. Each page is loaded into shell_mc using loadMovie. When a new page loads, I run shell_mc.unloadMovie before calling shell_mc.loadMovie(newPage). I am just wondering if the unloadMovie command will destroy everything in the current page that might take up memory before it begins loading a new page.

I have an array of temporary objects created in a for loop. The objects are of type class "Tile", a class I created. However, it appears that whenever I create a lot of tiles in the for loop, the program slows down indefinitely.
While the array is whiped at a later trigger point, I am thinking that perhaps these Tile objects are not being erased from memory. They are being created on the fly in a for loop, and the array is being reset to "array = []".
Are the objects still in memory or are they cleaned up when the array is set to []?

I have a game with a variety of ship types. My Ship class has a static array holding one of each of the types in it. Whenever I make a new Ship (other than when initializing this array), I want to make it a clone of one of the existing Ship objects in my prototype array.
1 - How can I run through all the properties in one Ship object and assign them to a second Ship object?
2 - How can I see if a property is an object or a basic type like String or int? Some of the objects in my Ship class need to be cloned, and some are just references that need to stay the same.

Now, In my stage it works nice but when I see my Computer Memory status. my current flash.exe is increasing memory rapidly. Is how to remove my unusual object from my Memory.

I am creating a generic button that will remove items created dynamically in a movie clip container from memory (not just from the display list).
To track which item the user has selected for deletion, I have a click function that stores the name of the clicked object in a variable called objName. I then store a reference to the object itself in another variable called targetObj. I can then easily remove the object from the stage like this[code]...

I'm trying to make a Starfield program as practice for ActionScript 3. I'm using a timer event in the document class to create Star objects which are defined by an object class connected to the movieclip Star in the Library. The object class has a timer as well, and at each tick it repositions itself a few points away and scales up, creating the image of a star shooting towards the sides of the stage. When the star has gone past the boundaries of the stage or when it has scaled to a certain size, it removes itself from the display list with the command: this.parent. removeChild(this);This removes the star from the display list just fine, however after that I can't get the star to set itself to null so that it will be removed from memory, and I'd like some suggestions on how to do this properly. An idea I had was to make a function in the document class that the child objects can call, something like this.parent.KillMe(this) which would give itself as a reference to the function, which could then use a local variable reference to set the child to null, removing it from memory. This all seems terribly complex, so I'm sure there's another way.
I haven't noticed a memory leak or slowdown, however, so I'm curious if objects without references that are removed from the display list are automatically removed? That could be both good and bad, as the object might want to add itself to the display list again at a later time; not in this Starfield program, but perhaps in another I write.

In my flash scene, I want to put several items off screen (to make things easier) which are going to rush through the scene (they are very big in size) but I worry that they might slow down the movie as it's playing.
But if I have things off the scene (out of view upon playback), do they affect the speed of the movie (affecting the memory and slowing things down)? To give you a better idea here is the scene: There is a vehicle moving quickly and the camera is facing the right side of the vehicle, so we can see the moving landscape behind the vehicle. I can either create a very very long landscape and movie it all one time (if having the long landscape off the screen does not affect the movie's speed), or I can create certain points of the movie where I ad and take away from the landscape.

My AS3 application basically does the following (pseudo code from main application class) 3 or 4 times by adding custom objects to stage:
_movieClipClassVariable = new MyCustomSpriteSubclass();
_movieClipClassVariable.addEventListener(MyEvents.READY, function(event:Event):void {
_hideLoading();
mcHolder.addChild(_movieClipClassVariable);});
_movieClipClassVariable.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myClickHandler);
private function coverClickHandler(event:Event):void {
}
What is the right way to allow Garbage Collector to recycle _movieClipClassVariable after it is not necessary? Assign null to it? Remove all listeners? Use weak reference for listeners?

Is this at all possible? I just finished re-building my entire portfolio site in AS3 because I can't change the frame rate for loaded content in AS2. Now I find out after completely rebuilding this thing that AS2 content gets stuck in Flash Player 9's memory and won't erase on Loader.unload. All my work from years back is in AS2.

Anyone know if there's a way to check for objects in memory that have been removed from a display object but not set to null?

my understanding is that primitive types (uint, string, Number, etc.) of a class do not need to be set to null for garbage collection.
for example, i am not required to write this dispose() method in the following class:
package
{
//Imports
import flash.display.Shape;
[Code]....
if this is true, which i believe it is, what is the difference between objects of primitive types and objects of non primitive types concerning memory allocation?

I have an FPS monitor running and notice that I am getting choppiness here and there, bringing my game from 40 to 27 fps and back and forth at certain stages. I have an idea of where it is happening, but do not know for sure. I looked up quite a few memory monitors but haven't found anything decent yet. Is there a memory monitor that allows you to see the memory leaked and find its location? If not, how about just he memory leaked?

I'm making an isometric game and I need to know which takes less memory for scrolling, making everything invisible that you can't see? Like if(!this.base.hitTest(worldHitter))this._visible = false; Or would it be better to remove the movieclips unseen and then reattach them when i should see them?

I am attempting to create a swc file that is CLEAN; meaning a .swc files without odd symbols included as classes and whatnot. I am able to not include undesired external classes so that's not a problem, that is working fine. The problem is that I have found that if any of my movieclips have a stop(); on them (and presumably any other as code) those movieclips show up as classes in my .swc library which I really would not like to see. I want my class to have only it's main class visible without any extra classes generated by flash.
For example: I have a movieclip with a linkage to a Main class and inside that I have a movieclip called btn1 that has an animation inside with a stop at the end. When I export the .fla as a .swc I get my main class in the library as com.test.display.Main but then in addition I also have the flash generated class in there as test_fla.btn1. I didn't create this class so I don't want it in there

im using .addchild to add an image to a movie clip:
function imageLoaded(e:Event):void {
fn=fn+1;
if (fn==1) { panel.estadoimg.addChild(imageLoader); loadImage(datosXML.localiza);}
if (fn==2) { panel.mapa.mapaimg.addChild(imageLoader); fn=0; }
}
The think is that i want to reuse that movieclip, how can i clean it?

I'm quite annoyed by the lack of link graphic management of the flash ide, don't you? In a web application like flash, it's quite surprising that I can link a static text but I cannot easily style it's hover/out state like html, nor simply get it underlined.Yes, I know, use the StyleSheet class and dynamic text fileds, yes... But no, that's not the way I want.

I'm trying to make a rotating banner with buttons on it (check the uploaded FLA... I had to set the extension to *.zip to get it uploaded, so once you DL it, change it to .FLA). It sorta does what I want it to do right now, but my code is really... REALLY awful. The only thing I can say about my code is that the functionality is close to what I'm looking for. Basically, this is what I want it to do:
1) banner consists of 3 different banners that rotate out with an animation in a continuous loop.
2) little buttons in the lower right hand side will whisk you to the appropriate banner, but will NOT be clickable on its specific banner.
3) rolling over the main banner img or the button will also pause the movie
4) clicking on the main banner img will send you to a URL I have a very hard time finding a way to be able to call a function over and over again without remaking the function and renaming it. If you have some time, please take a look at the FLA and pass me some pointers. I am using Flash CS3 if that matters.

I have made a game that after you reached a certain object it will switch to the next level. The next level is in a new layer and in a new frame.Problem is I think all of the properties (speed, collions etc..) have been inherited. Meaning my charachter will move on his own and collisions will still apply for objects if the previus frame.Is there some kind of way to clean all of the properties and have "fresh" start? I have tried to clean the Array that detects the collisions, the collisions work now. But the player now is 2x faster and also jumps 2x higher.

We are building a flash based product where we need to create icons for various modules. we are having challenges in look and feel of the icons- what looks really good on Adobe Illustrator/ Photoshop looks jagged on flashPlayer. A challenge we have is that the overall screen aspect ratio and hence aspect for the icons which are relatively sized can change
we were told in discussions with some adobe folks that
a) we need to build icons which are square, and in multiples of 32 pixels.
b) use a png format
As per them, this way the pixelation is reduced and diagonal lines won't appear jagged- we still have an issue on rendering in flash player
