ActionScript 3.0 :: Library Object's Constructor Can't Have Parameter's
Oct 11, 2009
I have a class in my .fla's library called StatBar_object. StatBar_object is an inherited class that extends from a custom class StatBar, while StatBar extends from MovieClip.
However, StatBar's constructor has a parameter (the constructor reads "public function StatBar(target:int)"). Thus, I continually get an output of:
"ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on StatBar_object(). Expected 0, got 1.
at actionscript.stat::StatBox_object()
at actionscript.modes::battle_mode()"
Is there any way to get StatBar_object's constructor to include StatBar's parameter?

I´d like to know how could use the Timer class extended.I´m trying to pass a parameter to the constructor function, so I can use it inside the listener.
Here´s example:
[CODE]
package { import flash.utils.Timer import flash.display.DisplayObject public class ChangeColorTimer extends Timer { public static const CHANGE_COLOR:String = "changeColor"; public var obj:DisplayObject public function ChangeColorTimer(delay:Number, repeatCount:int, obj:DisplayObject ) { super(delay, repeatCount) this.obj = obj } } }
[/CODE]
That was the ChangeColorTimer that extends Timer.Now, I´d want to know how would I use ChangeColorTimer.I thought it was the same as using Timer.I´ve tried this:
[CODE]
public function changeColor(mc:MovieClip):void { var colorTransform:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform() colorTransform.color = 0xEE0000 mc.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform var changeColorTimer:ChangeColorTimer = new ChangeColorTimer(400, 1, mc) changeColorTimer.addEventListener(ChangeColorTimer.CHANGE_COLOR, setNormalColorListener) changeColorTimer.start() } private function setNormalColorListener(e:Event):void{ trace("called") }
[/CODE]
I called changeColor, but, I don´t get "called" in the output from the setNormalColorListener listener.

I got an error like "Incorrect number of arguments.. Expected 0." when I was trying to make an instance of a user-defined class that I've written in the document class of my project.Here's the line in my document class:private var myNotice:myNoticeClass = new myNoticeClass(this);An untyped parameter is supposed to be the only argument to the constructor method of class myNoticeClass and the constructor is something like this
public function myNoticeClass(ref:*)
{ ......

I have a class tied to a library item, but no matter what I do, if I access any of the children (added via the stage in the Flash IDE) in the constructor of the class, they always return null and give me #1009 errors.

Is it OK to use the constructor to set properties for a value object class or must I use dot notation and set each one, one-by-one? I recently read an article that was saying I should do it one-by-one as value objects should only contain properties and went on to say using the constructor is not OK (best-practice wise).
Code:

I am new to AS3 but not to AS2. I have written a simple class and when I import it, I don't see the object that should be created upon calling the constructor. Can you guys tell me where am I going wrong. And I am very puzzled about 'document class'. Yes, I have google numerous threads on "document class" but still very shaky on this matter. Here is my simple class which should place a button object on the stage when I create a new object of this class. Once I have created the BTN class, I have made sure that I have button component in my library, I then instantiate the object by creating a new CS3 file and importing my class:
import com.learning.as3.*;
var b:BTN = new BTN();
When I test the movie, I get the following errors:
1172: Definition com.learning.as3 could not be found.
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:
BTN.
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method BTN.

I have the Class and the parameters of its contructor as an object. What I need to do is a function that returns an instance of this class, passing this parameters to the constructor.
This is the code:
Some random and unmodifiable class:
public Foo {
public function Foo(a:int, b:String) {
// constructor
}
}
And some function (in some another class):
function bar(params:Object):* {
var baz:Foo = new Foo(params.a, params.b);
return baz;
}
What I need to do is make this function generic, without pass params as parameter to Foo constructor because I can't modify it. Something like:
function bar2(clazz:Class, params:Object):* {
var baz:* = new clazz(/*some magic way to transform params in comma separated parameters*/);
return baz;
}

I am working on a side-scrolling platformer game. Because of this, I have a class that acts as a floor. I also have a class representing enemies. I am having problems with passing a parameter to a custom class' constructor. The class (SkullDemon.as) extends MovieClip. I am trying to pass an instance (called "floorL1") of a customer class called "FloorLevel1." "FloorLevel1" also extends MovieClip (I do not have a written .as file for "FloorLevel1"; I just exported the floor MovieClip to that class).
I am trying to pass an instance of "FloorLevel1" so that the "SkullDemon" object can land on the floor just like in a platformer. My main class is called "TME2_Main." This is the class from which I try to pass the "floorL1" instance to the "SkullDemon" class. This is how I try to create a Skull Demon instance and pass "floorL1" to its constructor:
[Code]...
What am I doing wrong here? I have spent a while looking for solutions (including moving code outside of TME2_Main's constructor),

I want to serialize ThugtrisShapes' children (heritage/polymorphism) but his children like Right_LShape take constructor parameters,i have to assign it a default value (in my case null because they receive an Array type), but i get this error even when implementing IExternalizable.
Take Note: IForm extends IExternalizable.
here is a link i found about it but it still does not work...[URL]
Code:
public class ThugtrisShapes extends Sprite implements IForm

I know that not all class' can be cloned , but cloning is an important aspect of OO programming.... There should be a solution for my problem,besides taking the parameter out of the constructor and add a setter.

I have the component Hadlab Newsflash on my stage.I have a button that, on rollover, changes the color of the component.When the button is clicked, the component fades out (tweenning) and the movie goes on. The problem is that the constructor keeps telling the component to be #FF0000(red) and the fade out tweenning doesnt work anymore because the mouse is on the button. Here is the code:

// cria a funcao "onRollOver" para o btnEnter
btnEnter.onRollOver = function() {

Let say I have two type object, one is MovieClip and other is Sprite, then I'm creating a function to access its child.
ActionScript Code:
function accessChild(parentObj:Object, childObj:Object):void {
trace(parentObj.childObj);
}
Then using "Analyze Project Source Code..." from FlashDevelop tools to analyze my code, I've got an error message:
"Do not use Object class. It is a bad practice to use the dynamic class Object. Prefer using strongly typed object, or marker interface in order to avoid silent compilation errors while refactoring". What type of object should I use in the parameter if I don't know the type of object if using an Object class as type object is a bad practice?

I'm building an AIR desktop application. At one point the application loads a popup window (an MXML component based on s:Window), which contains an mx:HTML component which loads a local (in the application directory) html file, blank.html. The relevant elements in blank.html are:
<script src="jw/jwplayer.js"/> <!--JW Player's JS-based Embedder-->
<div id="jwtarget" /> <!-- the target that the embedder will use -->
Since the parameters I want to use are determined at runtime, I use the domWindow property to invoke the method which loads the player. Here's an example that works:

I'm having troubles activating the HitTest, passing the objects name as a parameter through a global function. Let's say there is the following function on the main timeline:
Code:
_global.fallIntoBasket = function (fallingObject) {
if (_root[fallingObject].hitTest(_x, _root.basket_mc._y+(_root.basket_mc._height/2)-7, true)) {
trace ("teste");
_root[fallingObject]._alpha=0;
}}
I then call this function passing the this._name of the object as a parameter in a onClipEvent (EnterFrame) on each of the falling Objects action box. The whole detection thing doesn't work though... but if I place the hitTest code on each of the object, and change the _root[fallingObject] to this it works. Can I not pass hitTest through a function?

i've been struggling with the following:
i am creating a list of buttons with an attachMovie. the AS is :
//as
var i = -1;
while(++i<userlist.length){
var user = userlist[i];
[Code].....
okay the problem is this: then i assign an on click function to every button right in the while loop that uses the data parameter of the "ob" object and when i play the movie the data parameter is always the parameter of the last object created for all the buttons. I know why this is happening- it overWrites the old "ob" with the new with every itteration of the loop.
But how would i go differently about creating an individual "ob" for each button created and still be able to have a function with a data parameter like this.onRelease.userClicked(data)?

I would like to change the parameters of an object, or values like width and height, via javascript but I need a very lightweight method. In the end some of the thing that I want to change would be width, height and a parameters src value. So far I'm having no luck of getting it by id $('#test').attr('src','test.html') or the javascript method of getElementById().
What is the best - lightweight - method to do this?
An object being like this:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="500" data="http://www.thisembed.com" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />

I know the topic of "duplicating" movieclips is a hot issue with the new virtual machine. Luckily, I understand the implications. I only am [currently] interested in duplicating a Bitmap. See, I load an image from an URL using 'flash.display.Loader.load', which is a non-blocking operation in Flash Player.However,I may use multiple copies of the loaded image (which is reported to be a Bitmap, naturally) in the display list at the same time.Hence, I naturally do not want to load the image from an URL every time, because I don't want to wait for a non-blocking call to complete. Nor do I need to - I mean one copy is already loaded, so it should be possible to just "duplicate" it, right?
My idea is to do use the bitmapData property of a Bitmap and pass it to the constructor of a new Bitmap object. I have not tried the following in action, but I want to hear whether any of you did and if the following would not work, what would:
Code:
var original_bitmap: Bitmap;
var copy_of_original_bitmap: Bitmap = new Bitmap(original_bitmap.bitmapData);
LiveDocs mention that the BitmapData being passed to a Bitmap constructor is "being referenced", which to me might suggest it cannot be used twice? There is also the BitmapData::clone() method, which I am not sure is applicable here or not.I know this is a lot of talk instead of just trying this out, but I test so much Flash Player code daily just to see "what works" (which should be documented instead by Adobe),
