ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Variable With A Function?

View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Create Different Variable Types From Single Function?
Jul 26, 2010This is hard to describe in a sentence, so i'll write some false code: (with incorrect syntax, of course)[code]...
Is it possible to do something like this, where I pass the name of the data Type that I want it to create and it does it within the function? And I know that with this simple example it isn't necessary to do it this way, but in the full program this would save some time and make the code more efficient.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Global Variable From Inside Function?
Oct 11, 2011I have a primary function that calls upon other functions, which call upon other functions, etc, each one creating different objects. I need to delete everything eventually and was thinking the easiest way to do this would be to have a global array to push() each object into. It would be easy to just put garbageArray.push(thisCreatedObject); into the for() loops of every function to grab all the objects so a deleteFunction() could just cycle through garbageArray to remove and null everything cleanly.
What I want to do:I could easily just create a global array to do this (code example 1), but I would prefer to be able to recreate this global array and delete it every time this primary function is called (code example 3) since it will be called upon a lot. It would be cleaner code to have it created from within the function as opposed to outside of it because I will have a lot of primary functions doing similar things that would require a global array like this.
I also know I could create one and simply pass it as an argument to every function (code example 2), but I would have to pass it to every single function. There are a lot of functions and a lot of calls to them, so this would require rewriting a lot of code and would be more work than it's worth. Making a global array outside of the function would be easier than doing this if it came down to it.
ActionScript Code:
//example 1 of global array. No passing as argument from
//primary to secondary functions. Multiple global arrays
//required for multiple primary functions in the future.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Reference To Variable/function Using Strings?
Sep 18, 2009I'm wondering how I can create a reference to a function/variable by using strings. Sorry if I'm not explaining the problem well, but let me show you what I mean in an example:You can create a reference to a class using strings by using the getDefinitionByName as follows:var classRef:Class = getDefinitionByName("myClass") as Class;var myClass1:classRef = new classRef();Similarly, how do you refer to functions and variables? The reason why I want to know is because I'm trying to implement a function which takes in the event handler name as the parameter, and what the function essentially does is that it adds an event listener with the associated handler (based on the parameter) to an object, something like this:
public function addListener(handler:String):void {
mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, "on" + handler);
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Custom Function Called "turnOn" With (name) As Variable?
May 20, 2005I'm trying to create a custom function called "turnOn" with (name) as the function variable(?is that how I should refer to it?). This function is an if/else statement that will be called through an on(release) button event.
The if has a bunch of && conditions, if true gotoAndStop on frame two of specified movie clip. But I'm trying to write it put it in a function so that I don't have to put all this code on every single button. So i'm using the "name" function variable to specify the movieclip that should be affected by button action, but it won't work.[code]...

Mar 7, 2012how you would target a function's local variable through a concatenated variable string.For example:

Jan 28, 2010I want to be able to have a number displayed on the screen that when one of the arrows next to it (up/down) is clicked it adds 1 to the original number (lets say 72). Then when they click the "save" button that really just takes them to the next frame (or a frame somewhere else in the movie), which is a confirmation page, I want the number they ended at to display on the confirmation screen.
I'm thinking that it is partially because I don't know what to search for.I know I have to create a variable and get the button to add one to that variable.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Declaring A Variable In A Function: Either The Function Or The EventListener - Doesn't Work
Nov 27, 2009I have a set of Cue Points in an FLV I'm playing. It's an interactive quiz, so the idea is that flash will change a variable, theAnswer, to a different letter depending on which question it is. The answer to question 1 is B, question 2 is D, etc. Either the cue point event listener isn't working, or else it is working and Flash isn't declaring the variables. 1120: Access of undefined property theAnswer. I literally can't find a single problem with my code. I have an almost identical Event Listener further down which works.

How To Create Variable That Contains MovieClip
Aug 8, 2009I want to create several "buttons" (which are actually MovieClips) that are all identical apart from an image and the link. My thought was to create a movieclip button that contains a var that will represent a movieclip, then in each instance of the movieclip button set that variable to be the movieclip image that will correspond to the button.
Geez my query seems so simple until I try and put it into words...The gist of it is, how do I name a movie clip variable? Something like, in the main movieclip, instead of inserting a specific image into the movieclip, insert a variable named innerImage, then in each instance of that movieclip name the image to be inserted by specifying the variable
var innerImage:MovieClip = the movieclip I want for this instance.
If the var was a number, it would just be:
var innerImage:number = 4;
If the var was a string:
var innerImage:string = "word";
So for a movieclip:
var innerImage:MovieClip = ???
