I have an xml say in following format
[Code].....
What I should do is parse an xml and from its node name create object property and then create an object array based on those property. Am I able to make myself clear.
I have problem with accessing object created by function imported from another package.
I have 2 packages DragDrop and UserInterface. In UserInterface I create methods for buttons and later add them in DragDrop . I make it in two different ways:

i need some help to understand how to access a property of a child of a DisplayObject. within a class i have an object with the variable name: btnLMain i have assigned it a name property: btnLMain.name = "btnL";
btnLMain also has a property: btnLMain.clickNum = 0; // thats the one i need to access when i instantiate the class (btnL) containing this code in the parent class i need to access the property "clickNum" so i did this:

how to access a property of a child of a DisplayObject.

var dispObj:DisplayObject = btnL.getChildByName(btnLMain);
displayObj.clickNum++;
but then i get the error: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property clickNum through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.
so then i reviewed documentation and from what i understand i am not able to access the property of the child of the DisplayObject as it is a static property...
so now i am trying to figure out how to access that property in the child Class.
private var myObject:Object = new Object();
private var myArray:Array = new Array();
myObject[dynamic_name] = true;

I have an object with an Array of objects inside. Each object has a name property. To scope it directly I would use:
ActionScript Code:
obj._arrayOfObjects[0]._object name; // trace returns the first object's name in the array
if you understand this so far then here is an easy question for you.

I'm pretty new to AS3, but I have not managed to solve the following problem: basically adding instances of a bitmap on the stage (working), but then adding an event listener and knowing which is which. So for the first part:
[Code]....
so I'm trying to create this array property inside an object. here's my class:
[Code].....
what's been frustrating me, is that when I trace city1.adjacentNodes[0], what I get is 200 (the value of what's supposed to be in city2.adjacentNodes[0]). It's as if the last value that was entered to the last object's property overwrites all adjacentNodes property in all Node object..
How to set or get the property of any object in an array. For Example:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import box;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class temp extends MovieClip {
[Code] .....
How can we set or get the value of any object in an Array
I have an object
obj = { a: 1, b: { c: 1, g: x, h: { j: {k: z} } } };
if I have an array of dynamic length ["a", "b", [...], "g" ]
How can I now update a.b.c.g ? example:
function set($target, $new_value, $array){
//magic
}
set(obj, y, ['b', 'g']);

I've created a card (that extends movieclip) in flash and after that I've created an array and pushed some cards inside of it. The name of the mcs is already set, but now, I want to add them to the stage and set their x and y position.
Code: Select allvar test:Array = new Array();
var testMC1:Card = new Card();
var testMC2:Card = new Card();
[Code].....
How can I access the property x of this card? The next code is wrong, of course, but it gives the idea of what I need...
Code: Select alltest[1].x = 100
// or
test[card3.x] = 100;

I have 2 classes, Display holds the currently selected Component:
public class Display
{
public static var selectedComponent:Component;
}
Component has an ID string and the selectedComponent variable is set on click:
public class Component extends MovieClip
{
public var id:String;
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function() {
[Code]...
Removing the selectedComponent variable type so it reads public static var selectedComponent; removes the conversion error and seems to change the ID variable but it appears to only be a copy of the object.
I have a function that uses the ... rest argument as follows:
public function dispatchActions(... actions):void
{
var params:Object = new Object();
params.actions = actions; // I also tried casting ie. = (actions as Array)
this.target.dispatchEvent(new ActionEvent(ActionEvent.dispatchActions, params));
}
I call it using myActionObject.dispatchActions("all"); The problem is that when a listener receives the dispatched params object and try to access the actions array, it does nothing. If I try to trace evt.params.actions it traces blank and if I try to trace evt.params.actions[0] it traces undefined.
ex:
function actionsListener(evt:ActionEvent):void
{
var actions:Array = (evt.params.actions) as Array; // I also tried without casting
trace("actions", actions, "actions 0", actions[0], "action 1", actions[1]);
}
This is the output: actions actions 0 undefined actions 1 undefinedI don't understand why I can't pass the ... rest argument through an object as an event parameter. How can I make this work?
I have an object which is assigned a number of properties:
var project_array:Array = [];
var slideObject:Object = {
project_title : myXML.projects.project[i].title.toUpperCase(),
[Code].....
but I'm not quite sure where to place this. If I place it outside of the object constructor, I get "term is undefined", I guess because it doesn't know what project_clips_array is - but if I declare project_clips_array in the constructor, it appears to need to be defined, i.e. I can't create a blank property. But I can't place it in the constructor either, because it doesn't seem to allow me to run a function within an object constructor. What is the proper syntax or arrangement of code for executing this function to get the array within the object?
i have this method:
private function findConnectedNodes(node:Node):Array{
var test_node:Node;
var surrounding_nodes:Array = [];
[code]......
I found a really weird behavior when using deep copy for objects (ObjectUtil of Flex framework).Imagine we have a class B which extends class A. Class A has property body which is of type ByteArray.I create object b (instance of B). Then I make a deep copy object bCopy, BUT this bCopy object does not contain body property at all! All others properties (of scalar types) defined in Class A are copied properly.When I define property of type ByteArray directly in class B, then this property is copied properly..

I'm new to flash, and my current challenge is to access object.[code]...
In actionscript 2 I was able to make indexed associative arrays. Ex:
var arr:Object = new Object();
arr[0] = {var1:"one", var2:"two"}
arr[1] = {var1:"a", var2:"b"}
In actionscript 3 I cant seem to do this.I get the error below.TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I'm just starting with OOP in AS3 so apologies if this question is too simple...The goal of this script is to have a button change it's own features (colour and transparency) and change the alpha value of a loaded picture.There are 27 buttons for 27 (stacked) pictures.In the fla is the following code:[code]When I try to access the picture (= portrait class and the test_portrait var in the fla) it can't be found. The object and the loader have for example this path when I debug: Movie Clip: Frame=0 Target="_level0.p_4.l_4. But when I do trace(getChildByName("p_"+tmp_name)); in the P_button class it returns null. Doing the same trace from the fla returns: [object Portrait] Why can't I access it from the P_button class?
View 6 RepliesI created an array in the var declarations with Code: var private eDrag:Array In a function that adds imported mcs to the stage, I also added code to push each to the array. Here is an example of a block of code loading the object with the part pushing the object to the array at the end:

I'm working with a web service and am returning an array to a field (that I set the data type as an Array). The result thus far is "[object Object]". How can I get the array values back out as a string?
View 0 RepliesI'm basically loading an XML file to assign instances of a movie clip a distinct value, which it uses to modify its height. So, I'm looping through the xml and instantiating my class Object each time (Rect) and then placing that Object into an array:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if(loaded){
var boxArray:Array;
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code]....
the trace here always comes up undefined. "listPosition" in this bit is an Rect parameter, defined in the previous bit of code as "i", so I can keep track of the order of the stack.I've found one or two examples of putting objects into an array and getting them back out, but it doesn't seem to work with this, maybe because I'm using a class. I don't know.Could this be an area where I need to use the array access brackets, like around the movie clip the object is loaded into. I've tried everything I can think of -- referencing back to the movieclip, adding extra objectRef type parameters... nothing has worked yet.

I have a function that checks if 2 objects are touching OB1 and OB2, if they do touch it runs the rest of the collision code where OB1 is the character and OB2 is a tile that the player cannot pass through.
I came across an issue where i wanted sprites to be separate from the hitboxes but my collision code works by checking the height and width of an object (you guys know the drill).
So i have a Tile class with 2 parts to it, a bitmap and a movieClip.
So i have this setup(pseudocode):
Code:
loop
{
function collision (ob1 , ob2[loop].movieclip)
}
This should work right? But it ONLY works for the first object in the loop!
I need to create an Array of movieclips so that I'm able to read / modify / add its properties. I thought the best solution was to create an Array of strings with each movieclip's name and then using this to convert the string to an expression, but I don't really know what to do when I want to access one of its properties. Here's my code:
ActionScript Code:
var room:Object = new Object
room.objects = ["mcObj1", "mcObj2", "mcObj3"]
mcObj1.Description = "It's a ball and it bounces"
[Code]....
Ok, so I made a custom class, but I did not want to add all the text to it through code (much easier to type it in flash on the frame). I name the instance aScoreBoard.
As my code runs, I need to call some of the functions that are part of the ScoreBoard class. As the code gets to this point, I try this line:
aScoreBoard.UpdateScores(passArray);
which will update the scores on the scoreboard. When that line in AS3 tries to execute, I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Main/Main:ayEnd()[C:projectsDev_LearningLongJumpsrcMain.as:616]
at Main/Main::ButtonAfterJump()[C:projectsDev_LearningLongJumpsrcMain.as:606]
Is there a way to do things this way? or will I have to go and do all the extra text entering in the code?
