ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect If Property Is Read-only?
Nov 16, 2010
I'm iterating the public values of an Object... is there a way I can efficiently determine if any particular property is read-only or write-only(i.e. is a get/set but not both)?
I have a simple AS3 class that just holds private variables. Each private variable has a getter function, but not all of them have setter functions. At runtime, Is there a way of telling which properties do not have setters but are read-only? Then I can decide to give the user an input field to edit the properties that have setters.
one thing i've never really understood about AS3 is that you can't have a private set method and a public get method together. from within my class i would like to assign values that would call a private set function:
[Code]...
is there no way to use the set keyword on a private function?
I have an FLV player that provides a read-only property called myPlayer.timecode and it displays the time in seconds as a String (xx.xxx).I am trying to assign that value to a variable so I can convert it to a number to use in some calculations, comparisons, etc. I can assign this property to a dynamic text box and display it on the screen, but I cannot assign it to a variable and have the variable value show correctly on the screen. What do I need to do?Ex: myPlayer.timecode value is 10.000 and shows as 10.000 in the dynamic text box called myTime1. (I entered the property into the Var: input box).Created a String variable called timePlayed, and assigned it to a dynamic text box called myTime2.However, I cannot find a way to assign the property myPlayer.timecode to this variable. I can only display a value of "undefined" or "NaN" in the text box myTime2.
I'm trying to make a clip that will have another clip attached (eventually it'll be a mask) when you roll over it. I want the mouse positon to be determined on rollover and a different clip (with different registration point) to be attached depending on which quadrant you rollover first. IE- you rollover the lower left quadrant of the mc first so an mc with an upper right registration point is attached and follows the mouse.
Code: leftfunction = function(){ if (patch._ymouse <= 100){ llowerfunction;
A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'
So I want to read http streams using flash tcp sockets. I do not really need the http header at all - all I need is body which contains flv. so how to read http response body into byte array using flash sockets?
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).
Lately 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?
Can we put [Bindable] on functions/methods? I know that bindable is used to change the value of the source property to destination property. But not sure if we can use that for methods. why we cannot put/ if we can then what will be the outcome?
I 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 wondering if there is a way I can bind a flex property to flash property?, the flash property is inside a swc file created in flash with the Flex Component Kit for Flash Professional, I can manipulate the flash component as a regular flex component, but I want to bind their properties, is there a way?
I can only explain this by an example; so:I have 2 classes and one of them includes the other as a getter/setter property.I need the following code to return the same result:second.first.X = 1; //but it does not. ( ExpectedMethod() is NOT fired. )
when i have imgs:Array = this.childNodes[1].childNodes; it brings me both imagesSet. Now i want to pick either of the two. I dont want to define each into an array (like imgs1:Array = this.childNodes[1].childNodes(0).childNodes and like wise mgs2:Array=this.childNodes[1].childNodes(1).childNodes) because in the future there could be more sets of images coming up so dont want to keep adding array for each everytime we add a set.
XML Code:- <data> <data1 title="Title1" detail="Here goes the text" url="xyz">
I used HTTPService for reading xml, but I want only a particular xml field value like the first node id.The HTTPService object is:
<mx:HTTPService result="getid(event)" id="xml_coupon" url="###" useProxy="false" resultFormat="e4x"/>The getid(event) function is: public function getid(evt:ResultEvent):void
I want to read a fingerprint using asp.net,silverlight, actionscript, i need get the finger and display the capture in the window. I do it in C# with griaule biometrics SDK 2009, only can be possible using a java applet. I dont know if mix java + asp.net can be a good alternative. if yes, how can I to pass the value from asp.net to java applet?
Just wondering if there is a way to read class static constants from a SWF file server side. I have found things like getimagesize() but it doesn't have all these details. I guess that means I need a partial decompiler.Specifically, I have this class in my Flex project:
Is it possible (if yes how) to get the URL of the webpage that a swf file is on?If swf file is on [URL] can I get flash to read the url and populate a variable with it (ex. variable films = 123 )
Simple URLLoader to get a textfile into a textfield.[code]Works fine locally, not on the server. I tried replacing it to the full http: URL to no avail.
My code initially has a timer generating an interupt ever 25ms, on the interupt it calls a certain function. I am simplywanting to read if the button is down as opposed to having aninterupt generated when the button is pressed. Is that possible,and if so why am I getting a bunch of errors with the attatched
is it possible to set the state of keys rather than just read them in AS3? I am particularly interested in setting the state of the CAPS LOCK, NUMBER LOCK and SCROLL LOCK if possible i.e. toggling the LED state.
