ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing Variables Between Classes?
Sep 14, 2008
What I have is a list of videos (FLV) and when I click on avideo name (button) I want the menu page to close, open anotherpage (the video interface page) and play the video that was chosen.I do not want the video to play on the menu page but on it's owninterface page. I am guessing I will need to save the String namein an outside file for the video class to grab. Once the video hasfinished playing I want to go back to the menu page.

I'm trying to create a oop flash website, but I'm really struggling with some basic things. Example 1: We've got four classes
DocumentClass -> FormsClass -> Form1Class -> ListClass
Let's say someone clicks a next button in the FormClass. That dispatches an event "nextForm". Documentclass is listening for this event, and displays the next page. But it needs to read a value (selected radiobutton) from the ListClass. What would be the best way to get this variable to the documentclass?

is there a simple way to pass a parameter in the "new" statement for a class that has been defined in the IDE? Like so:var newInternalClass:InternalClass = new InternalClass (someVar);So that when the new class is instantiated it has someVar to work with?

I am creating an app in Flash Pro using AS3 for my wife to track our son's hockey progress. The app will have three sections: start, data entry, data retrieval.I have created the screens as separate classes to handle their individual functions. My data is stored in XML that I need to pass between these screens.I tried creating a separate class to handle my XML, but I am having trouble reading and writing to the new class. Is there a better way to handle passing this XML information around inside my application? Eventually I would like to have the app write to an external XML file then pull the new rewritten file back in. This code is in one of the .as files already, it's just not working yet.I added my files below (7 as and 1 fla Zipped) if you want to check them out.

I have a AS3 game with about 300 images to load.
Method A) Now what I do in .net is load images required in each class e.g., Player class has 50 images to do with player movement and Enemy Class has 50 images to do with enemy movement.
Method B) I have read in AS3 you usually load all the images in the game in 1 class and pass the array of images on to the relevant classes so player/enemy images are loaded in a load class and then pass on those images to the classes.
Which method is best as I prefer method A?

So i a building a categorized menu of different foods. I have a class for "categories" (buttons) which essentially will return a string "salads", "drinks", etc. I now have another class "menuItems" for items within categories and this handles sizes such as "small", "med", "large", etc. My problem now is that when i return "salads", i want to invoke an array which contains all the elements of salads, send it to menuItems which will populate the menu. So far i have both the category objects and the menu object setup. I just cant seem to be able to send the data that the category object is returning and pass it to the menu object. Both of which are added to the stage as shown below:
If there was a way that i could say add all these classes to one class so that they can talk to each other that would be great but i dont know how to do this.

I'm used to building applications using pure AS3. I always pass dependencies into the constructor of classes I make, but this method seems to not work out well for Flex MXML views. It seems like I should define setters on the MXML class, which map to attributes in the tag/class instantiation. But using this method I cannot specify which properties are required and in what order I expect them etc. What is the preferred method to give a Flex view it's dependencies?

Imagine you have one main document class wherein you have some variables that make your objects move or roatate. Now, you make another class in which, for instance, you draw a rectangle (with the graphics class) and want the rectangle rotate in the same way your other objects on the stage rotate. You'd probably wish to access the variables from your main class, so as to asign their values to your rectangle rotation velocity. The question is: how to access those values? Is it even possible to share variabless across all the classes?

What I am trying to do is pull data from an XML file so that I can store paramaters for my FLV player (i.e. flv link, dimensions, video name, etc) I can get the data from the XML file and story it in a dictionary but I am unable to access the data from my main class. I know it has to be something pretty simple but I think i have been looking at it to long to see it.
// Main.as
package includes.action{ import fl.video.FLVPlayback; import flash.display.*; import flash.events.*; import flash.net.URLLoader; import flash.utils.Dictionary; import includes.action.XMLData; public class Main extends Sprite[code]..........
basically with all my traces this is what I get back...
// Trace dataVIDOEXML COUNT: undefinedELEMENTS: nullMAIN:LINK: nullWe are in LoadXMLname - no get: mortgagename - get: mortgage
The trace for Elements and Main:Link should give me back the name of the video but as of yet its either returning NULL or undefined.

I want to send the contents of a variable to a class where it can be used in its functions. Since I have no experience with object orientated programming what so ever I tried to break it down into real simple code so I can understand better what's going on and how I can implement it in my main code.I made a test file and a test class, basicly I just want to give a variable contents in my main code, then send the variable to the class so the class can trace it. But no matter how I try it i always get "Testoop.as, Line 6 1120: Access of undefined property test.Here is the code:
so this is the FLA:
import Testoop;
var test:String;

I'm building a simple Pong-esque game and I've 'hit' a problem. I'm having an issue with referencing one variable from one class into another. Sounds confusing to me, even harder to understand.
Basically I've got this in my "game.as" class:
ActionScript Code:
public var pongBall:ball;
and in my "player1.as" class I am trying to get said ball to bounce off the player's bat on contact. I think I have the coding right for it apart from trying to link it to the ball from game.as! So far I have this:
ActionScript Code:
public function bounceTest (event:Event) {
if (this.hitTestObject("game.as".startGame.pongBall)) {

ActionScript Code:
class Vector2d extends Math {
private var x:Number;
[Code]....
I can't seem to get my private variable, x, to be private. From my understanding of private variables, tracing n.x should throw an error, and adding 150 should throw an error. I've tried changing the variable's name, and the cast type, to no avail. The first trace goes through, the addition goes through, and the second trace goes through.
I'm new to classes, so I could easily be overlooking something vital. But the vars need to be private, because I want to use get/set to update the variables when one or another changes. For instance, if 50 is added to the y value, the magnitude and unit vectors would change, so I want to update them using getMag and getUnit. That whole system would be thrown off if the user had direct access to the properties.

ive written a class to control my content panels on my site. They work well! Currently they controll all the positioning perfectly on there own. What I am having trouble with, is how do i pass variables into my classes. For instance, my main content panel, has variables in the class: public var contentState:Number; Now, what I would like to do, is have movieClips on my stage, or 'buttons' that will be able to change 'contentState' within my class.How do i go about passing these variables?[code]

I need to know how to reference variables in other classes. I have been avoiding this by referencing variables from the Main class, where they are created. But at this point I would like to be able to have the option and it would make me a better programmer.
Say I create a movieclip in the Main.as
Code:
public var Enemy_mc:Enemy = new Enemy();
addChild(Enemy_mc);
[Code].....
How do I do that^ without creating a variable in Main.as and having it check Background.as for variable updates?
Can I do something like "Main.Enemy_mc += 5;" like I can do in Main.as to variables that I have created in Main in other classes?

I have a swf with an input text box and a button. When the button is clicked, I need it to open another swf in a new window on a different domain and pass the variables to a dynamic text box in the new window. I looked at local connect but I wasn't sure it would work because the two windows wouldn't necessarily be loaded at the same time and they are on different domains.

I am loading images into a movie clip dynamically from an XML file. Based on what image the user clicks, I would like to be able to open a separate window, displaying a different image. Ideally, I'd pass the variable of which image was selected to the new open window.I've done some research online, and am thinking I'm making this harder than it needs to be.
Actionscript from main movie
Code:
chosenImage.onPress = function() {[code]......
I've also seen where I could possibly pass a variable through ASP.NET, but am experiencing the same errors when trying to pass the variable. I suppose I could embed the popup.swf file in a new .aspx page, that would probably be acceptable.

I'm trying to develop a site map, which draws a tick over the sections of my app that have been completed. I've figured out how to draw the tick and how to pass variables from root to the MovieClip that the function is in.
To make the tick appear only after an mc has been watched, I tried setting a variable equal to 1 ino the last frame of the MovieClip, and telling the function to run if that variable was 1.
I'm not getting compiler errors, but I'm also not getting the tick. And I'm definitely completing the Movie
Here's what I've got so far: In root
Code:
var xcoord = 125;
var ycoord = 300;
var WaterComplete = 0;
