ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Everything Associated With An Object?
Feb 18, 2009
I've built my game so that everytime a new level begins, a "Session" object is created. This Session class then creates everything for the level.
In theory, once the level is over I can just create a new Session object to build a new level, this works perfectly.
However, I'm having some issues removing everything associated with the old level. I've removed the "map" child which stores all visual elements, I've also set the session object variable to null before creating a new one.
This all works fine, but it doesn't remove everything, for example there are still EventListeners running in the old Session objects which are causing me a lot of complications. Do I actually have to remove every single event listener associated with the object and all other objects it creates?

I'm getting this error in the following script:
Code:
package com.main.classes
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
[Code]....
I've highlighted where the problem is occurring. Now, I think what I'm trying to do is remove an object from within another object. I think the object I'm trying to remove is actually on the root.

I have a simple crosshair that drops blue balls when the mouse is clicked. I want those balls to be removed once they fall of the screen (as I'm under the impression that if I don't manually remove them, they'll stay in the system and hog resources - maybe I'm wrong).
ActionScript Code:
addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME,mousecursor);
import flash.ui.Mouse;
Mouse.hide();
[code]...
However, the various attempts I've made to insert a removeChild function in there to get rid of newBall when it leaves the screen have all failed miserably, and the error codes give me little clue where I've gone wrong (removeChild is not a function or other vauge errors).

I have a brick class where I have created a rectangle using flash.display.graphics.I am using this brick class to create a grid of 10 X 10 in another class called grid using new brick() in a for loop.I have another class called ball where I have created a circle with flash.display.graphics.The problem is that I want to remove / destroy individual bricks when the ball hits the bricks on Event.ENTER_FRAME which is not happening.the error I get is shown only for the last brick that is created in a for loop.ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

removing object instance from memory.I have created a class that move objects(movie clip) on stage. and on fram 1 i created 100 instances of this class using loop. now when user click on movie clip it should be remove from stage as well as from memory. using removeChild() it is removed from stage but it is not removed from memory. for testing i use initialy only one instance to check my code and when click it is removed from stage but not from memory. here is the code
// this code is on frame 1
function move()
{
[code]...
i used delete and assigning null and GC but nothing works. any one who knows how to remove the object instance from memory I applied every thing but object instance is still in memory (because there is a trace in fall class which continuously running and i guess the object still exist in memory)

I have a web site that creates a page by calling another class object. When I return from that page to the Main page I want the old page removed. I have done it like this but I am getting errors.
Two vars in GlobalVarsContainer:
public static var removePages:Boolean;
public static var pageToRemove:Object;
Create new page object:
function onClickBtn1():void {
var servicesHome:ServicesHome=new ServicesHome();
addChild(servicesHome);
}
[Code] .....
This is the error:
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable servicesHome is not defined.
So I know it's getting back here with all vars set correctly. I've tried changing the public static var pageToRemove:Object; to a string but that is not right.

I am getting problem of memory of having repeating object. Below is my code.
import flash.system.System;
var counter:Number=0;
var systemMemory:TextField=new TextField();
systemMemory.x=200;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,showNext);
function showNext(event:Event){
[Code] .....
Above code does repeat textField Object continuously. Now I want to destroy previous created textField Object. So that my memory will not be hang. I got some where in the blog that with System.gc() could clear garbage collection. But currently I am not working with system.gc any more I want to clear previous object in programatically way. Is there any way that I could destroy previous created object?

I hate it when I'm converting someone else's AS2 project to AS3, and there's code buried on an onstage instance somewhere, which gives me the warning:"Actions on button or MovieClip instances are not supported in ActionScript 3.0. All scripts on object instances will be ignored."

I load into an empty movieclip (via addChild) a library object (a movieclip of class MyObject that extends the MovieClip class). At some point, from the main I remove this custom movieclip from its parent and I set any reference to null to completely destroy it. The question: what if in the custom movieclip class there are eventListeners? Are them deleted when I destroy the object? Should I write a method to remove them before deleting the object?

I want to destroy/remove all the children of an object including grandchildren of those children and so on.
I was thinking of using a recursive loop along the lines "if you have children, check if they have children, if they do, check if THEY have children and so on until they have no children and if so removeChildAt(0) of the parent you last checked.
ActionScript Code:
obj0
|-obj1
|-obj2

A quick second question, we all know that event listeners should be removed when no longer needed but I was wondering about the event.COMPLETE listener for loading say XML or a video file or any loader object. Is there any point removing that listener of is it in effect dead anyway because it has triggered when "COMPLETE" and won't ever trigger again? Isn't it still "listening"?

I have a video player that is working great. What it does is it Buffers the video until enough of it has loaded that the playhead will not run into itself. That part works great, the issue I am having is there is a little message to let people know the video is buffering. The message is in a Dynamic textbox with an instance name of "loader" and a video with and instance name of "display".
Here is what I have, it just does not appear to be working.
Code:
loader.text = "Video Is Buffering for the Best Experience Possible, Please be Patient. Video Will Play On Its Own When Buffer is Equal To The Remaining Load Time";
if (display.Playing){
removeChild(loader);
}
What I want it to do is remove the loader text when the video is playing. They can play it manually or let the buffer do its thing. This does not seem to be working.

When the yellow_btn is clicked the function explosion is executed. This function displays an object called spark on the stage and makes visible a video clip called house_mc which was previously hidden.
I use a tween to fade the house video into view gradually as it plays and that brings me to my dilemma. When I start this tween I want the spark object to disappear from the stage. To do this I assigned a variable name of endit to my tween and am adding an Event Listener to endit to determine when the tween starts, at which point I want to execute the function stopSpark and remove the spark image from the stage. The code doesn't give me an error but the spark continues to display during and after the video has finished.
yellow_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,explo sion);
function explosion(e:MouseEvent):void
{
addChild(spark)

I have been getting this error after a bunch of different ways of trying this. I am attempting to create a new instance of my movieclip which displays external images via xml. I want a new instance of the movieclip every other frame and need to be able to remove each instance on every other frame. It will work going forwards, with a remove child call but as soon as I go back a frame, the error pops up.

If you dynamically create a parent movieclip, and dynamically add a color picker to each clip, and add an event listener for each color picker, does a removeChild on the parent movieClip remove event listeners belonging to any of it's children?

I am trying to figure out the logic to remove a nullreference error that is popping up when an item is not dragged. Inthe code, I have a stopDrag setup for the stage. It works asexpected unless the user clicks the item but doesn't drag it. Itcauses the variable I have set to bring the name of the dropTargetto be a null which crashes the system. I have tried to declare thevariable with a default value but it still doesn't work.It is the targetStop code that it is crashing on. Is thereanyway to default a value so I can do an if / then statement todetermine if there is a value? I've tried: if (targetStop == null)but that doesn't seem to work.

I made a website using AJAX (with jquery) for the navigation.The pages of the site are sliding and I use remove() to destroy the old page.
Every thing seems alright, but some times the browser crashes when he tries to remove the old page containing a Flash object.
How do i remove this Flash's object for my page without having the browser crashing on my face ?Is there a way to stop the Flash execution before removing the object ?
