Im stuck with actionscript error, the error i got:- TypeError: Error #1007:Tried to create an instance in a no constructor. at Away3dScene/initObjects()
[Code]...
I have been working on resolving a TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor in Flash CS 4 / AS 3.0 .I decompiled a file for a client because the original developer did not leave the .fla file.... so i am stuck with a bunch of weird syntax and playing guess ...Here is the Error message in its entirety :
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.
at VidPlayer::UtilMethods$/createTextFormat()
at VidPlayer/loaderInit()
Here is the script in VidPlayer.as :
package VidPlayer{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.text.*;[code]..........
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
Using this as the document class for a separate fla file, i'm getting this error when the movie is exported:
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.
what i'm trying to do is get a movie to duplicate movieclips when the original movieclip is dropped onto a target.what it does is,
1. click, drag movie clip to target.
2. drop, released.
3. duplicate movieclip appears in the ORIGINAL position from where the original movieclip was picked up.
4. and keep the dropped movieclip in place.
i don't know why i get,
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/dirt_UP()
Code:
function dirt_UP(e:MouseEvent):void{
if (e.target.dropTarget != null && e.target.dropTarget.parent == this.shirt){ e.target.stopDrag();
startX = e.target.x;
startY = e.target.y;

View 3 RepliesI have an image gallery with thumbnails and a previous button and next button. "nextPrevPosition:Number" starts out with the value of 0 and increases or decreases by 1 every-time the previous or next buttons are pressed. The thumbnails assign a value when those are pressed:
Quote:
private var nextPrevPosition:Number = 0;
private var currentPort:MovieClip;
private var POSITION:Array;
[Code].....
all works fine except when NextPrevPosition reaches the original value 0...and this is when I get the error message. It looks like the line "currentPort = new(POSITION[nextPrevPosition] as Class)(); is when it is happening.
I am receiving said message on an actionscript-only project. I tried to reduce the application to a nonsensical example:

Is it possible to create an instance of a class without triggering the class' constructor?[code]In the case above, say I wanted to play around with a Foo instance, but I really don't want my global.foobarCount going up, nor do i want to pass in any value at all for bar.This could be useful for introspection where you want to learn more about or pass a particular class object but don't want to provide required arguments or trigger anything that the constructor may do.Is this at all possible? (Obviously, new Foo() just doesn't cut it here, since it would throw and arguments error, nor does just using Foo, since that's a reference to the class itself).

Is it possible to create a class instance dynamically and specifiy the constructor parameters dynamically?
So for example, imagine I have a class 'TestClass' which as constructor takes two parameters, (Array, int)[code]...
I know I can create instances from a string like this:
var classFromClassPath:Class = getDefinitionByName(classPath) as Class;
var instance:Object = new classFromClassPath()
I know I can call some function with a parameter array like this
var x:Function = someFunction;
x.apply(null,args);
But does anyone know if I can pass parameters like that when I construct a class?
I have a class with constructor and overloaded methods in it.

View 1 RepliesI have a library object (SomethingMC) which extends a custom class (Something). Something, in turn, extends MovieClip.If adding SomethingMC to the stage within Flash CS3 IDE, is it possible for it's super class (Something) to assign an instance name from a class constant (Something.THE_CONSTANT)?
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code].....
The above does not work. It throws Error #2078: The name property of a Timeline-placed object cannot be modified. if the instance is assigned a name in the IDE, and it just doesn't work if no name is assigned in the IDE.

So I've been messing around with some code to see if I can get a button to play a random sound from an array by using a function. However, I keep getting the error
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.
at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/ClickHandler()
Here's my code:
Code:
//-----------------------------------------------------------------
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;
[Code]....
Random number is of course a random number no higher than the array length.
However, Chosen sound is always "null". Should I worry here?
I am new to AS3 and writing classes and keep having a hard time with these error messages I am getting. I have the following AS:
public class PrevNextNav {
public var back_next_nav:MovieClip;
public var next_btn:SimpleButton;
public function PrevNextNav() {
back_next_nav.next_btn.alpha = .3
} .... etc.
The class works fine, except when I try to set the alpha to 30% in the constructor function, I get this error in the output window.
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

If I comment that line out, all is good. What does this mean?

View 4 RepliesI have a Sprite in my library that is linked to a class (lets call it SomeClass), and i put on stage in Flash, and name the instance someClass. In my Main.as i then write:
var myClass:SomeClass = this.someClass;
SomeClass.as has a constructor with the same name as the class, however it require an argument. How do I pass that to the class when I made an instance of it directly in Flash by dragging it to the stage? (instead of the usual ... = new SomeClass(arg); )
I tried something like this:
myClass.SomeClass(arg);
But that gives me this error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method SomeClass through a reference with static type SomeClass.
I am trying to link buttons in Flash to placeholders on the time line, but keep getting this error message, any ideas what it means

Then create instance variables...

then create local variables with the values of the arguments

I like finding out about tricky new ways to do things. Let's say you've got a class with a property that gets set to the value of an argument in the constructor, like so:[code]That's not exactly a hassle. But imagine you've got... I don't know, five properties. Ten properties, maybe. Rather then writing out each individual assignment, line by line, isn't there a way to loop through the constructor's arguments and set the value of each corresponding property on the new instance accordingly? I don't think that the ...rest or arguments objects will work, since they only keep an enumerated list of the arguments, not the argument names - I'm thinking something like this would be better:[code]
