ActionScript 3.0 :: Read Variable In A Different Class?
Jan 15, 2011
Basically, imagine two classes, for simplicities sake I'll call them classA and classB they are in the same folder, same project, and all variables have been called as public.
In classA there's a variable, for this example I'll call it speed (its called something else obviously as speed alone turns blue so its a reserved word). It is made and updated in classA for it's current value
classB handles the array to move things, and needs to reference what speed is so it knows how much to move each object each tick.
How do I allow classB to look in classA and see what the current value of speed is?

ActionScript Code:
var city:String = "Bath";
var xml:XML = new XML();
var urlloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlloader.load( new URLRequest("[URL]") );
urlloader.addEventListener("complete", xmlComplete);
function xmlComplete(e:Event):void{
[Code] .....
The main part is where I have created the variable: IconGif... it reads a portion of the xml file and turns it into a rference that will eventually relate to an instance name of a movieClip. I was going to use:
ActionScript Code:
this.attachMovie(IconGif,IconGif,100);
to place the item on the stage to whatever the xml says that day,
My problem occurs because the function I have used to create the variable, clashes with the attachMovie function and I receive the message:
TypeError: Error #1006: attachMovie is not a function.
at weather_fla::MainTimeline/xmlComplete()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/flash.events:EventDispatcher::dispatchEventFunctio n()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at flash.net::URLLoader/flash.net:URLLoader:nComplete()
Whatever that means but when I try to call the variable outside of the function, it doesn't know what I'm no about, because as far as it's concerned it doesn't exist, but only when the function is being called. I'm not the wisest with XML and calling up data...

in a flash template i found several buttons with almost the same action script code. on pressing the button a window popup with different text (for each button a unique text). the following code is in the code section of the buttons, only the two last codelines are different for each button.
[Code]...
so i think that the input of the unique text for each button is handled in the last line "_root.READ = 22". i also found in the bibliothek the belonging text parts. my problem now is that i dont know where the connection is set between the text part and the array/variable READ. in this case the connection is 22, but i dont found any property in the text part or in the property of the button where the connection is set to 22. i use flash cs4.

I have a number of checkbox's on the stage. The client would like the half dozen or so checkbox selections to be in a random order each time the frame is viewed. Simple enough, I created a random array...
Code:
var Q3Labels:Array=["17p deletion","p53 mutation/deletion","11q deletion","Trisomy 12","13q deletion"];
function getQ3Labels():String {
[Code].....
But when I test this code I get a "1084 Syntax error: expecting rightparen before .", so it seems it's reading Q3A as literally "q3a_chkbox.label" not "11q deletion" (or whatever). If I change the Q3A variable to simple text then it works fine,

In my emptyMC, i'm calling a newsticker, that needs an external .as class to works propertly. But when it opens, it doesn't read my _x and _y coordinates and neither the .as.
My code to it, is in a frame:
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip ("noticias", 2);
loadMovie("newsticker.swf", noticias);
noticias._y = -50;
noticias._x = 0;
In my first frame I have locked the root with:
this._lockroot = true and i has been working perfectly.
Also in the root in a frame i'm loading a music.swf.
for further doubts, just ask.
I'm working with Flash CS5 and AS2, Flash Player 8.0. It's a TM template.

I realize this is kind of an odd issue, but I am wondering if there's any way to get Flash to allow me to access a class's static functions using a class variable that points to the class. Example:I create a class called FooClass that has a static function named fooI then create a variable of type Class that points to it
Code:
var class:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("FooClass"));
However, when I try to call foo() using the variable, it errors saying the function

I'm trying to create a class which will create a tween for several different instances of an object. I am creating the instances in the Document Class. The trick is, I would like to specify how long each tween will take.
Here's what I have so far:
DOCUMENT CLASS
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import mcCloud;
[Code].....
As you can see, I have a variable "myTime" which syncs the timer and the tween. This causes to tween to repeat and the clouds to continually scroll across the stage. How can I determine the var myTime at the time I create each instance of the Movie Clip mcCloud?

When I declare a class variable
private var myVar:MyClass = new MyClass();
It creates a new instance of that class that will trace as [Object MyClass].
However, as soon as I assign it to something
myVar = thisOtherVar;
It will now trace as [Object thisOtherVar].
I need to get it back to where it's just an "empty" blank class instance, if that makes any sense at all.

I've only been programming in as3 for a couple months, and so far I've written several compositional classes that take MovieClips as inputs to handle behaviors and interactions in a simple game I'm creating. One problem I keep coming upon is that I'd love to access the custom variables I define within one class from another class. In the game I'm creating, Main.as is my document class, from which I invoke a class called 'Level1.as' which invokes all the other classes I've written.Below I've pasted my class 'DieLikeThePhishes'. For example, I would love to know the syntax for accessing the boolean variable 'phish1BeenHit' (line 31) from another class. I've tried the dot syntax you would use to access a MovieClip inside another MovieClip and it doesn't seem to be working for me.[code]
