ActionScript 3.0 :: Difference Between Extends And Instantiation?
Apr 26, 2010What's the difference between Extends and Instantiation? It seems like they're both ways of getting content from a class.

this throws an error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property filler through a reference with static type A. can anyone give me a hint on that, as it works with class A, but not B extending A? i understand it was meant to work?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Instantiation Of Classes?
Jun 16, 2011I'm building an application where it would be sweet to use dynamic instantiation of Classes.I'm using "flash.utils.getDefinitionByName" to get this done and, if I instantiate the Class in my code once, there is no problem at all.But, I want to be able to do this without instantiating the Class at least once before I go with the getDefinitionByName method.I'm using Flash Develop and the Flex SDK, coding with pure AS3.Is there any way to instantiate the Classes only dynamically?Or, any alternative to the getDefinitionByName method?

Actionscript 3 :: Differences Between Variable Instantiation Outside Constructor And In?
Dec 19, 2010I found two difference that I feel might be important:
-If I decide to put the variables within a constructor, then I must have an object parameter for any function that wish to alter the variables, even if the code is internal to the class.
-Subclassing would cause the variables to not appear, something that causes problems when the class and any subclasses must have the variables in order to operate properly.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Symbol Instantiation - Best Method?
Mar 22, 2008I've just migrated to AS3 and am trying to get my head around how to instantiate library symbols as instances of a class.Here's the problem: I'm making a tile-based game with a Map object to which are linked many Tile objects. Now while I initially create blank tiles, I later want to populate them with terrain. This operation will change thus the tile's _terrainType property. Finally, I want to then draw the map consisting of its many tiles. Tiles without a terrain type will remain plain vanilla, but those that have terrain types specified would obviously appear different.
Now the Tile object itself extends Sprite, so it is a DisplayObjectContainer (k, no problems there). My question is, how do I now either a) directly assign it a library symbol graphic,following it's instantiation (if this is even possible?) or b) dynamically use addChild() to add a library symbol graphic of a certain classname (my preferred tactic)? The problem is if I have to do something like this...
Code:
var tileImg:MovieClip = new mountainTerrain();
addChild(tileImg);
then I have to write a bleedin' huge switch() statement to reference a hash table which specifies which terrain type refers to which symbol class type, which is just ugly and crap.The most logical thing to me would seem to be something like this...
Code:
var tileImg:MovieClip = new eval(classname)();
addChild(tileImg);
...but clearly I'm misguided because eval() doesn't even exist in AS3 and I have attempted it's equivalent with no likelihood of success.How do I dynamically add a graphic to represent each instance of my Tile class?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Error #1007: Instantiation Attempted On A Non-constructor?
May 8, 2010I have an image gallery with thumbnails and a previous button and next button. "nextPrevPosition:Number" starts out with the value of 0 and increases or decreases by 1 every-time the previous or next buttons are pressed. The thumbnails assign a value when those are pressed:
Quote:
private var nextPrevPosition:Number = 0;
private var currentPort:MovieClip;
private var POSITION:Array;
[Code].....
all works fine except when NextPrevPosition reaches the original value 0...and this is when I get the error message. It looks like the line "currentPort = new(POSITION[nextPrevPosition] as Class)(); is when it is happening.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Stage Instances And Instantiation Order?
Feb 25, 2009I've been having a problem that I have not found a good solution for. I think this is a problem related to the Flash Player's architecture so an experienced eye here would be welcome.
Imagine you've got 3 symbols in the Library and create instances of them by dragging them onto the stage. Each object is linked to a class. Let's say the object classes are named ObjectA, ObjectB, ObjectC. Their stage instance names are objectA, objectB and objectC.
The classes of these objects reference stage instances. For example, ObjectA might have a reference to ObjectC, like this:
var _objectC = MovieClip(root).objectC;
ObjectC might have a reference to ObjectA, like this:
var _objectA = MovieClip(root).objectA;
It sounds like this should work but it doesn't. When the SWF is published, objects on the stage are instantiated in the order that they were dragged from the Library. This means if objectA is instantiated before objectC, it's reference to objectC will return null and the code will fail.
I know there are ways around this, but I'm trying to come up with a solution that doesn't involve the document class, a helper class like a singleton, or instatiating objects with addChild().
It seems that the only way you can be absolutely certain that all the objects have been instantiated is on the first frame of the movie. So I've been using a system that adds an enterFrame event listener to just get references of stage objects when the first frame runs, like this:
function findStageInstances(event:Event):void
{
var _objectA = MovieClip(root).objectA;
var _objectB = MovieClip(root).objectB;
[code]....
(Note: The ADDED_TO_STAGE event won't help in this case because objects are added to the stage by the SWF based on the order they were dragged onto the stage from the Library.)
