I'm pulling info from an XML file... there are three variables (year, month, day) that I need to process further in another function, but I can't figure out how to send them out of the function and into the next for processing.
Is it possible to make their values globally accessible?[code]...
little bit what Im trying to do: I have 2 SWF, one.swf and two.swf 1 LocalConnection to send 1 variable from one.swf to two.swf
one.swf code:
var param:Number = new Number(5);
var sending_lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
sending_lc.send("_Connection1", "myMethod", param);
[code]...
I need to be able to use param value out of the function, because a I need to perform a switch with this value, since the function wich receives de param value is an anonymous function I dont know how to do to get the value from outside the function because a dont have a reference name to the function so, the normal way to return a value is not going to do the job.
Im calling a function in lua from actionscript using callstack : Array =
luaAlchemyInstance.doString("luafunction");
my function should return some values

return true, 125
end
When i look at the callstack array returned by the function in as3,I recieve only the success/fail part.The array length is 1, true, and contains none of my return values.
I'm trying to make a login function that receives the username and password as arguments, does all the proper URLRequest and URLLoader stuff inside it, and retrieves some values from the database. Then, it puts those values inside an object (a little associative array really) and returns them. I've put 'trace' sentences all over the function, and it seems to be working without a problem and is retrieving the right values from the database. However, when I try to assign the returned value with something like:

As seen below, I tried to return more then one variable from a function but , I think I have some syntax problem..

I'm new to Actionscript programming. I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to return multiple variables, each having a different data type, from a function. For example, if a function needs to return variable aa ( a string) and variable bb (a number).
The function I'm using just crunches a lot of math, and doesn't relate to an object in a GUI. One method I got from a Google search used an Object, but as (I think) this requires me to create a class, I wondered if there was a simpler way. Since an array can hold elements of different data types, perhaps this is a simpler approach (?). [code]...
I want to know why my update doesn't populate local Sqlite database. Yesterday with few records in database application worked correctly. Today after inserting another 10 records.

View 4 RepliesI'm developing using Actionscript 3.0 for Flash Player 10.3.I'm using computeSpectrum() on a loaded .mp3. Running *Event.ENTER_FRAME* to get snapshots of each sample in an byteArray.The ByteArray contains 512 values (256 for each channel). These values are FFT Spectrum, ranging from 0 to 1.I can't use the peak frequency for each of the samples (as I found found out!) because the highest value is not necessarily the fundamental frequency. As a result I'm getting lots of random values all over the place.Of course I'm getting some correct too, but that's not enough.
View 4 RepliesHow can i get a single value extracted from a XML where i have this value several times?
consider this
Code: Select all<pnode>
<node>
[code]....
I want a code that output to me the result in <cnode> for example but just one time.
If i do "Xml.node.cnode;", the output will be
Code: Select all<cnode>Aloc</cnode>
<cnode>Aloc</cnode>
And i need this output
Code: Select allAloc
create a random subtraction equation where the result will always be positive? For example, my current scripting will return something lilke 3-6=-3. I don't want equations like this- only postive answers
//random numbers//1.function randomNumbers(min:Number,max:Number) var Results:Number=Math.floor(Math.random()*max)+min; return Results;}
//2.new_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showRandomnumber);

for some reason, the code won't return anything. the output just says "undefined". Would a good workaround consist of putting the return function within a setInterval method?
I trying to populate a combobox from a .php file and return the values of the selection. I have the .php set up to where it outputs something like
&artists=anartist,anartist2,anartist3, etc..they have names..I already have the combobox set up to where it displays
anartist
anartist2
anartist3
after you click the dropdown arrow..How would I get it to return a the numerical value for the artist (ex: anartist would be "0" since it is first in the list) and put it into a variable so that when it is selected it could be placed into an eval() function to create a variable such as "albumcover0" to be loaded through a function. I have been reading tutorials for hours to no avail.I want a single function to produce the number from the selected artist and place it into a variable, then go through all of the loadImage(for the "album image") etc functions..they will be functions that I have made already previously and call all of them with the number in the called fuctions (ex: loadImage(0)) where "0" is the number derived from the variable out of the combo box.Ive tried tons of tutorials, I think that it has something to do with me using flash mx 2004, and as2 turned on.

I'm having some troubles with the use of interface and inheritance in AS3. I've done lots of OOP in the past and what I'm trying to do seems obvious to me, but doesn't work in AS3. The question is : Is it possible to override a function that return an Object of class A, and make it return an Object of Class B which extends A ? It seems not to be possible, since I'm getting a signature error in Flash, when compiling. For example, the following set of class do not compile (the code in function definition doesn't matter):

I am trying to have the function toggleClick return powerData. I need to store powerData in a variable and have it passed to another function to do calculations.
Inside the function toggleClick, I am assigning powerData to houseArray[e.currentTarget.name.toLowerCase()];
var powerData:int = houseArray[e.currentTarget.name.toLowerCase()];
I tried just to write return powerData--but it breaks the program.
// function toggleClick
function toggleClick(e:MouseEvent) {
// Store "Power" Values of House Objects in Array

I'm communicating to these movie clips with another program via binary sockets.For the first set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will jump to the frame corresponding with that number. for ex:if the incoming data from the socket is (mc7+3), then movieclip 7 will jump to frame 3.
For the second set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will move location across the screen, by the y coordinate moving to the # given by the socket...thats a little confusing. for ex: if the incoming data from the socket is (mc4+500), then movieclip 4 will move so that it's y coordinate is at 500.[code]...

I've found out that when publishing with Flash 8 my previous MX's working fla files, I get multiple errors.I've had a look at the Export publishing settings and I think they're all correct: - Exporting version: 8- AS Version: 1.0So, I guess it must be a silly thing I'm doing wrong but after a long while I haven't been able to know what's wrong. Perhaps AS compatibility is not that accurate?The most common error I get is:"A ')' or ',' was expected" or"An unexpected '}' was found"(I'm using Spanish Flash 8, so I don't know if this is the exact message you're given in English Flash 8) The 'supposed to be wrong' code seems to be in lines like[AS].posicion = posicion+eval("abc" add i)+gap;abc=eval("_parent._parent.abc" add _parent.n)[/AS]and I even get a "Declaration must be inside a on/onClipEvent controller" here:[AS]._xscale=abc*1.4;[/AS] ...while ALL of this code worked perfectly in Flash MX, I get up to 104 errors in Flash 8

View 1 RepliesI've run into a bit of a snag on this slideshow I'm trying to create. My plan involves adding movie clips from the library by attaching them to an empty movieClip. Then using setInterval and a variable as a counter, it increments in the function. When the number reaches "20" the first movieclip is removed and the next one is displayed. Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc", 1);
canvas_mc._x = 75;[code]....
//How do you bring on the second slide when the first is removed? So, my problem is that I'm thinking that the return value from my function should be 20 but instead I get 0 in the trace statement.My plan was if it equaled 20 to bring the next slide out from the library, thus moving forward with the slideshow.
