ActionScript 3.0 :: Using A Getter/Setter Pair?
Nov 9, 2009
I'm having trouble updating a property value of a custom class (SubLoader) using a getter and setter. Inside the if() statement of the main fla you can see my attempt to set the percent value. Running a trace() method before the if() statement always outputs '0' for some reason. Tracing after the if() statment outputs an actual value. I can't figure out why the percent property always traces as '0' before the if statement even though I am updating it with each progress event.

I seem to have run into a situation where when I push a value to an array held within a singleton via a getter/setter , Flash seem so access the getter over the setter method. Within my command/controller (I am using RobotLegs)
override public function execute():void {
// various line of code here
//Place screenshot image into an array from model for later reference.
model.unitScreenshots.push(screenShot); // screenshot is just a Bitmap object
}
The getter and setter within my model e.g. robot legs singleton
public function get unitScreenshots():Array {
return _unitScreenshots;
} public function set unitScreenshots(value:Array):void {
_unitScreenshots = value;
}
When I set a break point on both the getter and setter, only the getter method is being called, why? I would think that a push value on the array would trigger the setter, not the getter.

I'm trying to create a property that can be set by extending classed and read publicly.I couldn't think of a good naming convention for a protected property with a public getter, so I tried to do this:
public function get name():String{ return _name; }
protected function set name(string:String):void
{[code]......
However I get the error (when trying to set name in an extending class): 1178: Attempted access of inaccessible property name through a
reference with static type testing:TestComponent.1059: Property is read-only.
If I change the setter to public, it works fine.

I recently completed a tic-tac-toe game in AS3, using some simple function-based code I had written in C many years ago.Now I'm on a quest to do it the "right way" using OOP techniques and best practices.Everything is now divided into neat little packages, it looks pretty, and the last part of my journey is to get all the little buggers to communicate with each other.I want to move the code which holds the game state from my main to it's own class in com.okaygraphics.model.GameState.The problem is nearly every other package gets and sets these game state properties.I'm trying to figure out the simplest way to encapsulate this stuff, while still allowing my other classes to access it.
1) Do I need a constructor? I mean, my program will never have more than one GameState. If I should call my getters/setters as instance methods, how do I get each other class to reference the SAME instance from their respective packages?
2) Do I even need getters and setters? Perhaps the class could just have 3 public properties? If so, how would I acheive the proper scope with regard to my other classes?
3) Should I assign everything to the class itself using the static keyword? If so, how would I implement and use those static methods?
4) Is this a mistake? Did I totally just program myself into a corner?

I have two functions one that sets and one that gets a number. The set one works, but the get one doesn't. I have it trace the set it returns the correct number, but when I set the getY function, it doesn't give me anything at all. When i took the number out of the trace it just gave me back only text. What am I doing wrong here?

I have written a class, which is basically a textfield for forms. It will eventually have several validation modes built into it too, which will be set by setting a property of the object.anyway, my problem. Basically my setters are empty if the movie is used as a loaded swf within another movie.I have an Event listener within the class listening for the Event.ACTIVATE event (still not sure exactly what this does...) though i do know that i need this in place for the setters/getters to work.If i create objects from my class, set some properties everything is spot on, though the moment i load this working movie into another movie the Event.ACTIVATE does not fire.[code]Now, if i run this movie its perfect - everything works as it should, right down to the validation.however, this movie is to be used within another movie. When i load this movie into a parent movie my fields aren't added to the movie.

I'm trying to make a class that extends the Sprite, have some private properties attached to it and be able to read and write those properties using getters and setters. Simple... but the compiler throw this error "Access of possibly undefined property speed through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite."It works if I set my class to extend the MovieClip object.Could someone explain me the logic behind this? why I can't use getter and setters with a Sprite?Here is a sample code:

Is it possible to have a property with a public getter and protected setter? I have the following code:
public class Mob extends Sprite {
// snip
private var _health:Number; // tried making this protected, didn't work
public function get health():Number { return _health; }
protected function set health(value:Number):void {
[Code]...
I did have this.health -= dmg; but I split it out to get more details on the compiler errors. I don't understand how the property would be considered read-only within the same class. I also don't understand how it's inaccessible. If I make the backing field, getter, and setter all protected, it compiles but it's not the result I want; I need health to be readable externally.

The generally used workaround for this, is to use a regular function instead of a getter/setter. This results in having to have ( ) after the function variable obviously. The question is, can a Function variable be assigned to a getter/setter function and retain its attribute of not needing brackets.
Below is some Pseudo code representing the question:
#########################################################
public class Foo(){
private var prop:Object;
public function get Prop():Object{return prop;}

I have a situation where I might be getting one or both of a pair of characters and I want to match either.
For example: str = 'cddd a dfsdf b sdfg ab uyeroi'
I want to match any "a" or "b" or "ab". If the "ab" comes together I want to catch it as a single match (not as two matches "a" "b"). If I get "ab" it will always be in that order ("a" will always precede "b")
What I have is: /[ab]|ab/
But I'm not sure if the ab is going to be a stronger match term than the [ab].

I have set up a roll_over / roll_out listener that works for me, but the event only applies to "inBulb_mc". As I have it set now, a bunch of squares are blinking through random colors. I want the mouseover to pause this event no matter which mc i mouse over. Is there a way to indicate that this should work for any instancename "inBulb_mc"+number.
using a variable such as i=0; i++ ; won't work because i need it to happen wherever the mouse is.
Quote:
inBulb_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, manageMouseOver, false, 0, true);
inBulb_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, manageMouseOut, false, 0, true);
Is there a way to set it up so that the listener works for all instances of inBulb_mc, be it inBulb_mc0 inBulb_mc1 inBulb_mc2 etc

Are there any whizzy open source projects which provide the communication framework into which I can drop my message data or do I have to write a load of complicated multi-threaded sockety code? Does the picture change at all if teh clients are running on phones?
