ActionScript 3.0 :: Error Converting String To Number

Mar 31, 2009

I am working on an Flash application that reads data from XML files. I ran into an issue where when Actionscript converts strings to numbers, it returns values different from the initial numeric string. For example:

Original string: 90330135147081210 Number("90330135147081210") returns 90330135147081220

I cannot figure out why it does it. Does anyone have any idea. I tried compiling under both Flash CS3 and CS4, and it always

Flash :: Converting A String To Number?

May 27, 2011

I'm trying to convert a string to number and no matter what I do, get strings still.

var lastDigit:Number = Number(e.target.name.charAt(e.target.name.length-1));
trace ('lastDigit is number = ' + lastDigit is Number)

And this traces false. I also tried parseInt and get a type coercion error.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting String To Float Number?

Oct 18, 2010

Here's what I'm trying to do. The user types a number, such as 12.011, in an input box. I want to check to see if the number they typed is between two numbers, such as 12 and 12.1.Therefore, I want to convert the string in the input box to a float number, not an integer, so I can check to see if it's in the correct range. How do I convert a string into a float number?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Converting String To Number Using ParseInt?

Jun 12, 2007

All I want to do is convert a string into a number, I thought it would be easy:

Code:

var stringNum:String="00000000537112"
var num:Number= parseInt(stringNum);
trace(num);
//Result: 179786

I have tried using Number(stringNum) aswell which does not work, all I want it to do i convert "00000000537112" into 537112.I have tried it by removing the 0s at the beginning of the string which works. Is there any way of solving this or will I have to build a function to shave off the preceding 0s?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting XML To String?

Nov 17, 2010

I have an xml file titled config.xml that looks like this.
 
<textChanges>     <change id = "22833" whatToAdd = "
" whereToAdd = "Front"></change>     <change id = "22843" whatToAdd = "
" whereToAdd = "End"></change> </textChanges>
 
I'm processing this code inorder to automatically add to the front or end of a line found in an xml file titled textXML.
 
Here is the processing code:
 
[Code]....

This traces the correct line of code from textXML, but the shows  up in the text and doesn't add the carriage returns.  The crazy thing  is, it works if I replace textAddition with "

".  I figure this is  happening because of some weird formatting issue.  So I've tried many  ways of formatting the textAddition var to a string.  Each time has had  no effect.

My input textfield is called Minutes. var pMinutes = Minutes.textvar sMinutes:Number = Number(pMinutes) I use it in a timer, and when i try to add a value to Minutes (ex. 5) in the swf the timer displays 59:59, if i add a value (ex. 5) in the .fla the timer goes well but i have to add a value before exporting... so the textinput is like a normal read-only text field.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting A String To An Instance Name?

Jun 8, 2009

Code:
//declare variables and create arrays
var initx=80;
var inity=80;


[Code]......

Alright, what I am trying to do here is get 15 buttons arranged on the stage in a random order. The buttons are all named "butt1" "butt2" etc. First step, getting the numbers 1-15 in a random order in an array (successful). Then I concatenate "butt" before the number so the array contains the button names.

However, when I try to place them I get the following message:

ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property x on String.
at numbersgame_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

Flash is interpreting my array values as strings rather than the buttons they are supposed to be, and failing as a result. How can I fix this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting String Into MovieClip Name

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting String To Integer?

May 29, 2010

I'm having some trouble converting a string to an integer.  Here is my code:
 
var str:String = e.currentTarget.name as String; // Getting values like "song1", "song2"
str = str.replace("song", ""); // Changes it from "song1" or "song2" to "1" or "2"
var num:int = str as int; // SHOULD be converting the "1" to 1 and "2" to 2
trace("num:" + num + ", str:" + str);
 
The trace is always outputting:

num:0, str:1
num:0, str:2
etc..
 
The str value is there, but when it gets put into num then it zeros out.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting A String Name Into A MovieClip?

Sep 9, 2010

I had an old AS2 trick that I named "menuStatus" that I would use to for a file where I had several buttons. Each button would have it's over state, off state, and "current" state. When the button is in it's "current" state, it moves to a 3rd frame in the respective button (for this example - a basic color shift). I'll also eventually remove the listener when it is in this state. But first things first: I can grab a button's name using the "event.target.name" and assign it to a variable. But when I try to tell that variable to gotoAndStop(3), I get an error:[I]1061: Call to a possibly undefined method gotoAndStop through a reference with static type String.

ActionScript Code:
stop();
var current:String = new String();
var myBtns:Array = [one_btn, two_btn, three_btn, four_btn, five_btn];

ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting Code To A String?

Jul 8, 2009

Since Action Script is an interpreted language, and it is clear by decompiling animations that the code is still in there, is there any function that lists the code of a function or class as a string?asically, I want to create a suite of components for developers that lets them make modifications to or at least view the code behind a component while the animation is running, and that way make it easier to find bugs, instead of having to stop the animation, dig up the code for that class, and recompile it. It would be even handier if it was possible to edit code while the code was running, so the next time Flash encounters that code, it will instead run the new code. Yes, if used unwisely, that could cause a lot of problems, but the benefit outweighs the risk, and that feature is used in such development environments such as Visual Studio.

Likely, the only solution to that would be to give each class a "code" variable, likely a String. Then when the users click the button to view that certain source, it checks for the "code" variable and displays the contents. The problem is that you have to remember to update the variable each and every time Perhaps I can write an extension for FlashDevelop that does that automatically? It could just update that variable at compile time.
