ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass A XML Element Path In As A Parameter Of A Class?
Dec 28, 2010
I am creating a class to handle some audio in an app I am building. This class will need to accept the XML element path as a passed parameter and or a getter.
examples of some XML elements I would like to pass to the the audio handler class to access them.
Dialog.introScreen.text
or
Dialog.secondScreen.main.text
ect.
I pretty sure this is not a string data type and thus cannot be passed as a string (I could be wrong though), if not, what data type would I pass it as?

I have an application that gets its variable data in XML file.
This application is used for different clients with different data.
Some of the data I pass to the Document class from the first frame. I would prefer to pass url to the XML file the same way, without the necessity to update the document class. But now I have to hardcode this url in the class every time, because I cannot get parameters from the first frame to the class at once, only after some time (like after loading XML with hardcoded url).
Is there a way to force executing of the code on the first frame before the code in the class will proceed?

I have written a class that works fine, but as soon as I try make it re-usable and pass a parameter. It gives me this error "1120: Access of undefined property xmlList_0."
Here is ActionScript Code:
package Classes{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.*;
public class Carousel extends MovieClip {

This is the code in my fla.file to run this class:
ActionScript Code:
import Classes.Carousel;
var carousel:Carousel = new Carousel(xmlList_0);
addChild(carousel);

I have a class that has a constructor which accepts some parameters.
Code:
class MyClass {
var myNumber:Number;
function MyClass(number) {
myNumber = number;
}}
Is there a way I can link this to a movieclip and pass the parameter? From what I've found there are two ways to link the class to a movieclip, one using the registerClass and another typing the name intro the Linkage Box in the Library. But in both cases there are no parameters being setup.

I am trying to pass FlashVars into public class EventDispatcher to set the path to data.xml. I need it because the name and path of the xml file will be dynamically created. I need to use Flashvar in order to access the correct path. I was able to pass Flashvar from html page on timeline this way:
PHP Code:
var Flashvars:String = LoaderInfo(stage.loaderInfo).parameters.xmlfile;
Then, I was able to use it for new UrlRequest;
PHP Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(Flashvars);
This method works really good, but this solution only works on timeline. I need to implement this technique in the class. Before I setup a static var for with the path to xml file. I'd like to be able to get FlashVar withing this class and assign this string to 'public static var DATA_XML_URL:String' I have there. This way I can pass Flashvar to the project I already have.
Below is the class where I can implement it:
PHP Code:
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I have a custom class being constructed from my main class. In the custom class it has another custom class that is passed in as a parameter. I would like to strictly type the parameter variable but when I do, 'the type is not a compile type constant etc'.This, I understand, is because the custom class used as a parameter has not yet been constructed.It all works when I use the variable type ( * ) to type the parameter.I suspect this is a design flaw, in that I am using an incorrect design pattern.It is actually hand-me-down code, having received a large project from someone else who is not entirely familiar with oop concepts and design patterns.
I have considered using a dummy constructor for the parametered class in my main class but the passed in class also takes a custom class (itself with a parametered constructor). I am considering using ... (rest) so that the custom classes' parameters are optional.Is there any other way to control the order of construction of classes? Would the rest variables work?edit)in main.as within the constructor or another function
var parameter1:customclass2;
customclass1(parameter1);
in customclass1 constructor:

Forgive me for this stupid noob question but I want to call a function (loadList) that originally gets triggered after a mouseevent from another function (addToXML) that does not have an event.
The loadList function takes info from a XML var, sticks it into an array which then gets loaded into a tile list and that is working fine.
The addToXML function when called adds elements to the XML var after which I want to call the first function with the event parameter so it refreshes the items in the tile list.
I know it can do this by creating a new array and loading that into the tile list in the addToXML function, but it be much simpler to just recall the function.
I have tried things like
Code:
addToXML.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadList);
but all the event constants I have tried give me error messges like "1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Function."

I've got a problem with a function i'm using to dynamically move movieclips around - its like this at the mo:
function wjump(number) {
_root.content.aboutus.webwizard.targetY = startPos[number];
}
where startPos is an array with numbers.
I want it to be like this:
function jump(target, number) {
target.targetY = startPos[number];
}
so any clip can be moved as long as it has a targetY variable. But it won't work for some reason. Is there some sort of special syntax i should use like [] brackets? I tried this around the target in function body but it did not work.

I'm trying to figure out how to use AS to access frames of a movie clip within a button symbol (using Flash MX 2004), and I seem to be stuck. I drafted a small test version of the FLA I'm working on, and it is attached to this message.
Specifically, my intention is to have a two-state button that goes into "selected mode" after the first mouse click, and then goes back to normal after a 2nd click. I can already handle the functional aspect of this using a global boolean like the one in the attached file. The problem is that I want to represent the current status of the button with a visual change; in the attached example FLA, the intention was to change the color of the text label on this button from grey to red when the button is in its "selected" state.
In this forum I found a similar question where someone had provided a "menu.fla" that had a row of buttons that acted more or less like a radio set, which is somewhat similar to my need. I've been trying to use the same sort of method, having converted the "up" state of the button text into a movie clip symbol with two frames (one for each state), and then trying to use AS to do a "gotoAndStop()" on the desired frame of the up label animation. The problem is that I cannot figure out how to actually make this work ... no matter what sort of path I try to use to get to the movie clip animation within the button, I cannot seem to set the text animation to jump to the "selected" frame (2).
I think my problem is that I've been unable to glean any understanding from the Flash MX docs about the differences between an object name and a symbol name and an identifier and an instance name and a blah blah blah, or about which of them (if any) actually is an ID that can be accessed via ActionScript. Also, MX 2004 seems to provide almost no compile-time error checking on the validity of a target path either, so I've been reduced to just throwing every combination at it that I can think of. None have worked, so I'm at a loss.
If anyone can explain to me why the attached FLA doesn't cause the text to stay red after a mouse click, no matter which of the commented out lines I try, it would undoubtedly be a big help to me.
(Please note that the button in this FLA uses a basic flashing animation for mouseovers ... it was just something quick to implement to emulate the mouseover animation in my full file, so please don't be distracted by it. Also note that I haven't tried to implement any code to return the button to a non-selected status yet. One thing at a time.)
RESOLVED: It was apparently the nesting of a movieclip inside of a button that prevented the original target path from working (and one of the tutorials at this website seems to support that). Once I knew what the proper path syntax was and didn't have to worry about that part anymore, eventually the rest fell into place pretty easily once I started using a movieclip for the button rather than an actual button.

I must be missing something obvious. I'm trying to pass a parameter from a URL into a text field in flash, but it doesn't seem to work. I've got a dynamic text field (display as html is checked), with an instance name txt_txt. Here's the only line of code in the file:
txt_txt.htmlText="test "+this.loaderInfo.parameters.nameVar;
And, when I upload it and use the following, I get "test undefined" as my return!? [URL]

When using as3 and embed my swf via swf object JS, one of the parameters that being transferred to the embed JS function is "base=http://www.mydomain.com" which needed in order to load external widget into application.
Now, am also loading external assets like Styles.swf that placed locally on client side, and when I'm trying to load these assets I get error that they don't found in [URL]
For example: StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("Styles.swf");
Error: can't load [URL]
Is it possible somehow to load Styles.swf as local assets??? I've tried use
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("../Styles.swf");
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("./Styles.swf");
StyleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("/Styles.swf");
