ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Overpass Array In Method
Mar 28, 2011
I am working on some kind of framework, and trying not to "hard code" anything. My idea is to have few screens with background movieclips and messages. Every screen will have messages, but some screens will not have movieclips. So far my code look something like this and it works fine:
ActionScript Code:
var mySuperMsg:Array = new Array();
mySuperMsg[0] = new SuperMessage("Lorem ipsum ", new Point(100, 100), 1, 10, 1);
mySuperMsg[1] = new SuperMessage("Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet", new Point(100, 200), 2, 10, 1);
mySuperMsg[2] = new SuperMessage("Lorem ipsum dolor ", new Point(100, 300), 3, 10, 1);
myMsgScreen2 = new MsgScreen(680, 500, new Point(0,0), myBackgroundMc, mySuperMsg);
As you can see, MsgScreen have 5 parameters like width, height, location, background movieclip, and array for messages. SuperMessage class have it's text, location, and some textformat parameters. This works as I expected. Problem is that msgScreen3 will have some movieclips in it, and iIwant them to be in array also. with their locations and so on...I cant set default value to array, so I cant get with putting 6th (default) parameter and only putting 5 when I don't need it. How to overpass it.

I am curious if this is an okay implementation of the Array.filter() method.
[Code]...
I was not able to figure out an implementation of the callback function for the filter() method, where the callback was outside of the getGallery() function. I wonder if there is a way to get the isGallery function outside of the getGallery scope?

I've been trying to move array elements from one array to another using the push method. The problem is that the element pushed should any longer be on the first array where it was taken from. That's where i'm stuck..

I understand the Array Method:
arrayname = new Array();
arrayname [0] = "Text"
arrayame [1] = " Text2"
And have it randomly pick one via a clicked button or what have you, but how do I have these effect variables? We have randomly selected from one in the array, how do I make it so once it selects one of those, it effects one variable, and if it goes to another one effecting another variable + - or what have you, without using if statements?

I am populating an array employees (shown at the bottom) with data from a MySQL database table. To locate employees that statisfy a complex criteria, I am using a loop like so:
var emplyees:Array = new Array();
var i:int;var counter:int=0;for (i=0;i<employees.length;i++){
if((employees[i].city=="London")&&(employees[i].age<30)){ counter=+; }}if(counter==0){ trace("No such emplyees")}else{ trace("Found "+counter+" employees.")}"
It works fine, but I think it is cumbersome and potentially slow with large amounts of data. Is there a better way of doing this?

Let's say I have a utility class that contains a static method. This method runs some math on the arguments passed to it, then returns an Array.
Example:

var ar:Array = [];

I have a drag and drop game. You listen to a sound for exampl "bread" You proceed to drag that mc to a box. If it is the right object I want to remove that mc and splice the array so it doesn't choose that object anymore. However I have notices two things.
When I splice(0) a specific element - then nothing works. When I splice the cuurent indexed element ie: the last element to get right - it doesn't actually remove it from the array. I have highlighted the key code parts.

I upload a file using adobe air HTTPService.Send method by passing byte array of file content read using FileReference. When I write the set of bytes from the server side (php) it writes the details of the byte array (buff) to the file instead of contents of the file like "endian=bigEndian&position=0&bytesAvailable=61127&length=61127&objectEncoding=3" . Below I have included the code that how I read the file and send it to server. Is there anyway that i can directly pass the data in the byte array to send method?
File Read
var buff:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
var localFilePath:String = "/Videos/sample.txt";
var uploadedFile:File = new File(localFilePath);

In actionscript 2 I was able to make indexed associative arrays. Ex:
var arr:Object = new Object();
arr[0] = {var1:"one", var2:"two"}
arr[1] = {var1:"a", var2:"b"}
In actionscript 3 I cant seem to do this.I get the error below.TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I have a class called Animal that has a method foo() and I call it out within the Animal class.
Code:
protected function foo():void
{
trace("Animal");
}
I also have a class called Cat that extends Animal and overrides the method foo()
Code:
override protected function foo():void
{
trace("Cat");
}
However when calling the function foo() from the superclass it traces out Animal not Cat (using a Cat object).How can I make superclass call out methods in the subclass?

two classes, both extend EventDispatcher. Static method in 1st class calls instance method in 2nd event not getting caught. [code]also, since dispatchEvent() is an instance method, is there any way of calling it without first instantiating the class? i expect not.

Is there a way to get a method's parameters from outside the method? I know that there's an "arguments" property but it's only accessable from within the method. I'm working on a RPC system and need to store the method parameter types in a hash table for easy access later on.

yet this doesn't, I'd expect it to: construct, start mooing, moo!, moo!, moo!, ...yet the moo! moo! moo! doesn't appear, as if moo() never gets called it all.

This is not my exact situation as it is a bit more complicated to explain here. There is an abstract class and several custom view objects derived from it. Some of the views are dependent on others being completed first but I cannot seem to order them in the correct order. TIMERS are not an option. Probably not explaining this correctly.

I have used a method to shuffle a part of a Array, but i noticed that it does not work very well.When i run this method I sometimes get empty array values.So if you would try the example below and test it out some times you would get a right result but sometimes a wrong result.For example when i run this i get in my trace output:
a,b,c,d,g,,e,f (here after the g it goes wrong)
a,b,c,f,g,d,e (here it goes right)
a,b,c,d,,g,f,e (here it goes wrong)[code]...

I'm using the .unshift method therefore the newest values go into [0] and the rest are pushed down.
What is a good method to remove a value from an array once it has passed a certain length? For example i only want my array to hold 5 values.
Also, is there a method for clearing the entire array, ie removing all values? Or will i have to manually change all the values with a loop?
