ActionScript 3.0 :: Retrieve Value Of An Array Variable?
Jun 19, 2009
I have an array variable called ball[#], which value starts at 0 and is incremented up to 8.
I also have a corresponding array variable called _ballPlaced which returns true or false if a ball is placed in a target zone.
What I would like to do is retrieve the array value variable from the ball[#] at any time.
For instance, the ball[#] variable can be clicked and dragged, so when it's selected it becomes the event.target. E.g. How can I put the array value of the ball[0] in the ball _ballPlaced array.[code]...
I have an AxShockwaveFlash object in a Windows Forms application, and load a (AS3) movie into it with LoadMovie. The movie plays correctly, but I am having a problem getting a variable from flash.I have tried using GetVariable but it always returns an empty string. How can I get the value of a variable from flash?
an easy answer for 99% of you. I have a custom class 'Users()'. In PHP I have all the values being populated correctly. When I go to Flash Builder - and do the test function - All the data comes back properly. However, when I click a button and refer to the lastResult property of the CallResponder - it comes up NULL the first time, and then if the button is clicked a second time it will return the correct result. What step am I missing? I had the same problem with something simliar last night and am getting BEYOND frustrated - especially since I know it is some SMALL detail I'm overlooking.So just for clarification - lets say there is a button named button1So button1's click handler:1) Validates the text input properties2) Asks the server if that user and password match3) If they do - then I want it to grab all of that specific users info and put it into a User class. Again - when I test this function/method from within Flash Builder all the values come back as they should. It's just on the first button click they come back NULL...he second click they populate fine - I.E.-
I am trying to place a condition statement so that it will only do an action if the swf loaded into the varaible is the same or empty. I start of with loading the sample1.swf into the movieclip swf_holder
Code: var loadSwf:Loader = new Loader(); swf_holder.addChild(loadSwf); loadSwf.load(new URLRequest(sample1.swf)); loadSwf.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
In order for me to get the sample1.swf to play, I create a variable so that I can just call on it
I am sending userID through urlRequest like below code,
[Code]...
now when new window is opening in that new swf is opening(new project) that is also in flex only.there i need to retrive userID when initailizing only how can i retrive?
how I can set the value of a variable and then retrieve it in another frame. To put this into context, I would like to dynamically load an external text file for different restaurant menus - depending on which button is clicked. I.e. Mains >> "mains.txt". What I have so far in the dynamic text box AS is the following:
basically i have a custom function for the array class. and within it i can refer to the aarray by using "this" however in a trace statement i want to be able to get the name of the array.
Code: // i think getDefinitionByName() might be of some kind of help. var myArray:Array = [1,2,3,4,5] Array.prototype.functionName = function(){
i am uploading a file using AS FileReference + php. Well i have my php checking the folder it is uploading the file to, to see if that file name exists. If it does it renames the file before writing it.
Is there a way to retrieve a the new file name from the php. i could find certain examples of retrieving the vars with sendAndLoad(), but not with the FileReference. Is this possible?
how to get the php to echo i just need to know how to get flash to get the echoed data.
I've got a variable that gets incremented by 1 every five seconds. I want to be able to, (on the click of a button), grab the current value of that variable and assign that specific value to another variable.
So basically I want to pass a variable by it's value and not it's reference. How do I do that?
I am trying to access data from an array. The array is in the root and I am trying to get it's data into a submovie. In as2 it would have been:
mylabel.text = _root.myarray[1];
So, i have tried:
mylabel.text = root.myarray[1]; and mylabel.text = (this.root as Array).myarray[1];
and tons of other configurations.. I get the 1119 error no matter what i do. I am beginning to think I just can't get the info from the array in a sub movie..
I have parsed an xml message into several arrays inside a function. I am able to see the data with a trace when it is placed inside the function, but I get a "parameter cannot be null" when the trace is outside the function.
function parseMC(assesInput:XML):void { for (i = 0; i<assesInput.*.length(); i++) { qArray[i] =(assesInput.multipleChoice[i].question.text());
I have two document classes. One is Main.as the other is Step2.as. I want to declare a public variable in Main.as then need to give it a value from Step2.as. That value will later be used in my next Document class Step3.as How would I write the code that gives the value in my Step2.as and then how would I write the code that retrieves the value in my Step3.as?
Note I can't import my Step2/ or Step3 document class into my Main.as.
In a Flex project, I have an array with objects in it. I want to save this array in a cell on a mysql table along with some other basic info like title, and an id. How to echo all the rows... I'm trying to echo the contents of an array that was serialized and placed in a single cell. This array has objects in it. So, I have this code here to serialize the array, and insert it along with the other info into my DB:
function submitLogDbObj($array,$id,$title) { $title=mysql_real_escape_string($title); return mysql_query("INSERT INTO logs (text,id,title) VALUES ('".serialize($array)."','$id','$title')"); }
Then for a test I'm trying to make a loop that will display the log in a way that looks like a conversation... An object in my array would look something like: [1] icon = "" msg = "this is a test" name = "Them: " systemMsg = 0 [Code] .....
Currently I'm setting up a webservice, which includes a login to access the member area.I'm testing all components seperately, and I've ran into a problem. When the user logs in I want flash to retrieve the user_id as a variable, so that I can use this user_id for member related database access. However, I'm having problems with retrieving the user_id.The login is done by inputting the email and password of the user. If these variables match the data in the database the user is send to the member area. I want to get the user_id by posting the email variable to a php file. In the php file the following code is responsible for this:
my_Array = new Array(); my_Array.push("one", "two", "three", "four")
Here's the catch: another variable (for instance) called "three" is loaded. I want to look up "three" in my_Array and retrieve the index-number (should be 2 of course). How can I accomplish that?
Supposing that i've a lot of MC placed on stage, every MC is stored into an array. Clicking on one of it, can i retrive the position in which it's stored into the array?
The above code loads an XML file which contains the path to text and image files, i am able to trace the path correctly within the above PARSE function but i am not able to retrieve the variable (or trace it for that matter) in the LOAD TEXT section, As i continue to code, i would also like to dynamically load multiple images (in the LOAD IMAGES section) using the projectPath and iterating through each image listed in an XML file. I am not at that point yet but my question is how would i create a progressbar/preloader that diplays total progress for all URL Requests (the text file and multiple images listed in the XML).
I am currently trying to create a piece of code that will retrieve values from a 2D array and use them as x and y values to position instances of a MovieClip called mcMain. The code for the array will look something like this...
Code: var lvlMain:Array = new Array(); lvlMain.push(new Array()); var xAxis:Array = new Array([150,400,200,300,100]);
[Code]....
how to create a piece of code that would retrieve the x and y coordinates listed in the arrays and use them to create instances of mcMain. So going from the code above it would create the first instance at x=150 and y=100, second instance........fifth instance at x=100 and y=500.
I'm using the xml connector to retrieve the results then bound the items array to the dataprovider No problem to access the items but my question is how to access to var1 and var2 in actionscript. Could i bound it to a var?
convert pdf file into byte array.and also i tried in Google also but no results yet.can u prefer how to convert pdf file into byte array and retrieve byte array into pdf file in flex application.
I'm going to post the full code of the two functions, disregard the "fluff" unrelated to the two functions as it is all working flawless, I've tested this HEAVILY and cannot understand why it keeps setting the entire array to undefined!
Code: // processReplace Function function processReplace(transferFiles) { var processArray:Array = transferFiles.slice();
[Code]....
Basically it's supposed to check to see if the file exists and return as true if it does and add it to a replace array, then the replace array is processed into a single string and put into a dialog box through the flash wrapper prompting them to "replace the files or not".
It makes the replace array just fine, it actually even has the right "count" in it but it's setting all the "filenames" to undefined because of the exists = processSearch function.
I even tried to make a new array and run the search just from that one and set the values from the old one and it's still failing.
Is it because of the "break" or can anyone figure it out? Iknow it's hard because you can't use the code
I want to change the value of a variable listed in an array using the array. for example:
Code: var theVariable:Number = 15; var theArray:Array = [theVariable]; now if I try this
Code:
theArray[0] = 20;
I just get an array with 1 value of 20 in it and it no longer references theVariable what i want to do is change the value of theVariable with out removing it from the array but referencing it from the array in a loop or something.
I basically need to load information from an XML. Then depending on which button is clicked(apartment in a building) that specific info from the xml needs to load in a txt field.
Here is my actionscript and xml code. I'm stuck on how to assign " i " to each apartment in the building.
