ActionScript 3.0 :: Hang Calling Function After Document Class' Event.ADDED?
Aug 24, 2010
I was trying to load an external SWF (that contains the below code in its document class) with the Loader class but i keep on receiving Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. So i tried to use the event listener Event.ADDED in MyDocumentClass constructor of the external SWF to let the document class be part of the display list before i invoke createRandomGraph. But when i place createRandomGraph( ) inside onStageReady, The compilation process hangs. When i leave the createRandomGraph( ) inside the constructor, it works perfectly as stand alone but will produce Error 1009 if loaded within the loader SWF
public function MyDocumentClass( )
{
this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED, onStageReady);
[code].....

I keep getting an "undefined property" error when I try to call an external function from within the Doc class. I added the error message to the Doc Class below so you can see where it occurs.
If I take the code from the Tooltip.as below and place it on the FLA's main timeline I can get things working fine, but I would like to move all script to classes. The document class structure looks like this:
Drag_and_Drop.as
Code:
package {
import Tooltip;// Import custom class
public class Drag_and_Drop extends MovieClip {
[Code]....
I realize that I could just combine all the code in the Doc class to get it working, but it would be nice to separate out this particular code which has only one use.

I'm trying to have a class reference a variable within the document class and have scoured the web but can't seem to find a solution. It seems relatively simple, but is a major stumbling block for me.
I want the variable in the doc class to increment each time a draggable object is within bounds and snapped to a box in the subclass. By tracking successful snaps, the objects will be placed one under the other each time.

I have a document class called Main.as In the class constructor I have the following listener:
enter code here
var listeningFORModeChangeToStudent:Sprite = new Sprite;
listeningFORModeChangeToStudent.addEventListener(TellAllModeChangeToStudent.STUDENT,exp);
addChild(listeningFORModeChangeToStudent);
[code]....
In a third class I make a call to the despatcher in the previous class:
enter code here
var ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent:TellAllModeChangeToStudent = new TellAllModeChangeToStudent;
ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent.tellAllModeChangeToStudent();
I have trace statements in eveything and from this I know the despatcher in TellAllModeChangeToStudent is being called.The problem is that the listener in the main.as is not calling the function exp.I cant see why and I dont know how to check if the listener is actually seeing the dispatch event?

I am dispatching an event from one document class and listening for it via another document class.My code in class A.
Code:
this.dispatchEvent(new MYEvent(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE));
trace("Dispatching APERTURE_DONE");
my code in class B.
Code:
addEventListener(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE, onDoorsOpen,true);
trace("Lisetning for APERTURE_DONE");
[code]....
My listener is registering before the event is dispatched, based on my output window, however I never get the "Open Doors" trace statement to fire.

[code]This is called as part of the die() function I've created for an enemy in the small game I'm making.The idea being that when the enemy dies, it attaches a movieclip of an XP orb.And it does this perfectly well.The issue is in the last bit of the code.I'm attempting to call the setType() function within the class that the XP orb is in.However, it isn't setting the type to 100.

I have a rather silly question but as3's document class always gets me confused.I have a public method on my document class. I want to call this method from another class that is instantiated from within an object in the library of the flash file (the same one on whose document class I want to call a method).

Can event listeners only be added to the class which dispatched the event? I ask because I want to have the logic for the listener on the main class, and the action is dispatched on click from a thumb which is instantiated in a scroller class. Kinda like this:
ActionScript Code:
pseudo code:
class main {
main() {
[code]....
This doesn't work. Why can't the main class listen for an event on the thumb class?

I am trying to use the CSVLib from [URL].. However; when trying to use one of the examples I get an "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addFrameScript."This is what I did.Extracted the files, then moved all FLA, AS and CSV files in the root (where also the COM folder resides). Then added the import statement to the Applicaiton file and defined document class.

I have a variable, we'll call it helloNurse, defined in the document class, we'll call it Joy, as a public variable. Meanwhile, I have a movieclip within the FLA that uses that class as its document class that, simply put, needs to access that variable. I had read up that the following SHOULD work:

I am trying to rebuild an AS2 navigation in AS3. I built a button class (PortfolioNavItem.as) and a navigation bar class (PortfolioNav.as). This works if I use PortfolioNav as the Document class. However, I want to do things the proper way and call PortfolioNav from a Main document class (Main.as) but when I try it I keep getting that Error #1009.
Main.as
package com.tagehaun {
import flash.display.Sprite;
//import com.tagehaun.PortfolioNav;
public class Main extends Sprite {
//public var portfolioNavItem:Sprite = new Sprite();
public var portfolioNav:PortfolioNav = new PortfolioNav();

package{
public class Character{
protected var _hp:uint = 50; //Character Health Points
protected var _power:uint = 5; //Damage dealt
[Code].....
I`m instancing a Character and a Player in the Main Timeline, all in frame 1.
When I use: ""player.attack(character)"" it works fine by itself.
So I added the if (defender._hp <= 0) this.win() which gives me the following error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method win through a reference with static type Character.
"defender" is a Character instance, "this" is a Player instance and "win()" is a Player method. I try to call the Player method inside a Character method using the Player instance adding the "." and his method name
Do I really need to define the win() function in the Character class? Is there a bypass to use a subclass method in a parent class method if it`s called from an instance of the subclass?

How can I run function of the main document class from a class of a MovieClip? I usually just used MovieClip(parent).function(), but now my MovieClip has another parent. Or what do I have to pass to the MovieClip class when creating the MovieClip to acess the main document class?

I have a Document class that instantiates a class named Other. I need to call a function in the Other class from the Document class.I'm getting this error: Call to a possibly undefined method OtherFunction through a reference with static type Other.I have read online that you need to use make the functions static or use a getter function but I'm unclear how to do that. I haven't been able to make it work and I feel like i'm missing something fundemental with this problem.below are simplified versions of the classes.

I'm not sure that I'm on the right track here. I've got what is essentially a 'gateway' movieclip and depending on the CLICK a corresponding movieclip (form) is loaded -- these all being in their own AS file. There are multiple corresponding pages that will all load/close in their own fashion but the 'gateway' will reload in it's own function-- consequently, I have this function on the main_AS. Can I trigger this function from the sub class or do I need to move the 'reload' function to a 'reload' class.

I've been searching around trying to work this out for a while now. There's been various ideas popping up, like dispatchEvent etc but nothing that seems to be a clear, simple way of doing this.What I'm trying to do is call a function from a class seperate (but in the same folder as) my document class.Specifically, I want to 'spawn' an object and run a function within that object's class from my Main.as.The snippet I have at the moment is as follows;
In Main.as:
var object:class_Object = new class_Object();
object.spawn();

Does anyone know how to call a function setup to accept an event argument without triggering it through the event?
Example... I have a button with a CLICK event. When you click on the button, the associated function is executed. Now say I want to call that function from within another function. Is there a way to "send" the event information manually?
Right now I have the CLICK function simply call another function that would then be available to be called from any other location. Below is a code example of what I am trying to accomplish.
Code: Select allbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doButtonClick);
function doButtonClick(e:MouseEvent):void
{

I just started a course that does a little flash. To teach us they have us build a brick breaker game. I have come to a part were I have to remove all the Listener that were created for the game. Each level is a movie clip and when the level is over the level instance is removed from the child. From what I understand when the level is removed the Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE becomes true and the function attached should be called however it is not. Here is the code of the function that sets the listener and the function to be called:

I have a two classes. One is linked to a menu and controls that. The other is linked to a 'viewer' movieclip. At the start (in the contructor function of the classes that relates to that mc) the 'viewer' mc feeds off an XML document, and an image is loaded into itself. When I click on a menu tab I want the image to change.
Both the viewer mc and the menu mc are on stage already. I tried to import the viewer classes into the menu class...
