ActionScript 3.0 :: Vector Class Containing Flash.geometry.Points?
Aug 29, 2010
import flash.geom.Point; I am trying to write a game using the new Vector class. Then Vector will be composed of flash.geom.Point (s). However, when I try to use the concat funtion to return another vector with a series of Points added to the end of the vector, I will get: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.geom::Point@bce8901 to __AS3__.vec.Vector.<*>. at Vector.<*>$/castToThisType() Action script is saying that I am trying to convert a vector to Point to a vector. I do not see how this is the case. In the example below, I have declared adjoiningPoints to be of:var adjoiningPoints:Vector.<Point>;
When I call path.concat( myNextPoint ); I get the above error. In order to troubleshoot the problem, added the additional lines declaring 'iAPath'. When I work with the arrays everything works fine. The arrays are entirely populated with points and there is no error.

I am trying to snap 2 vector points together but for some reason its moving the entire object instead of the point. I am trying to follow instructions in a book and the book shows that it is using the solid (filled) selection tool and it has the magnet turned on for snap options. It shows I am suppose to click where the (right triangle) appears beside the mouse arrow and then snap. but it keeps moving the entire Object even with the (right triangle) appear beside the mouse arrow. what could I be doing wrong ??

Goal: To build an Internet Mapping Site (IMS) using FlashScenario: Using Manifold GIS for the backend. It is a full scale GIS software which easily outputs data (geometry and tabular) into xml. It has built in IMS capabilities, but theWould like to build an IMS using Flash as the front end, and Manifold as backend. How would I set up something where the GUI and display were Flash, the user interacts with the Flash (Pan, Zoom, Selection, Query(SQL)), have Flash fetch that from Manifold via xml, and display the new extent, query results, etc.?
So there would need to be geometry data retrieval and display as well as tabular. For example the user should be able to use a "Zoom by Extent" feature where they draw a rectangle on the map, it returns the coordinates of the box to Manifold, Manifold returns it, etc. On the other hand they need to be able to query the datasets (simple sql queries).I hope this makes some sense. I'm a noob in many aspects to backend so I'm just trying to get a handle on whether this is possible, and what backend needs to be implemented in order to make this happen? Would you know of a possilble better method? Silverlight, etc?

I have a need to build many Algebra and Geometry equations in Flash. I am looking for some kind of flash plugin that will typeset these equations so that I don't have to build them by hand. For instance, if I had a fraction 1/2 or 134/489 and I was stacking the numerator over the denominator, the fraction line would adjust to the length of the longest number.
I know that the InMath plugin works like this for InDesign, but the formatting breaks in the few file types that are able to be imported into Flash. Is anyone aware of such a plugin made specifically for flash?

I would like to take advantage of all the goodness of the newer Vector class for FP10, but it seems it is marked as final. I am doing some intensive mathematical processing in Actionscript, and repeatedly process arrays of Numbers. I have previously been using my own subclass of Array(I call it NumericArray), with added functions such as sum(), mean(), add(), multiply(), etc. This works very well and allows for some clean OO code. However, I am finding through profiling that about 95% of my processing time occurs in the functions of these objects. I need more performance out of these arrays.
I want to use a Vector, as it provides some performance enhancements. I want to specifically use a Vector.<Number>. Unfortunately, I cannot subclass Vector as it is marked final. What is the best and cleanest way to imitate what I was previously doing with a subclass of Array, to a Vector.<Number>?
I have thought about passing around Vector.<Number> variables instead of my custom class and just using utility functions to manipulate, but this is not good OO design and will be a pain to use, not to mention ugly.

I am trying to use the new Vector class introduced in Flash 10. Tried compiling the code using mxmlc but am getting this error message:
Error: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Vector.
public var selectedRoutes:Vector.<Route>;
What is the general consensus about the viability of using this feature? Can you do introspection of the Vector with describeType and get the type the Vector contains at runtime?

I am currently creating a remake of the game Geometry Wars but in Flash using AS2 but the further you get through the game it seems the more lag builds up. And it is down to my computer (which does suck) but it's been tested on multiple pretty good PCs. It lags when a lot of enemies enter the screen but to be fair there isn't a lot. Here is my game which I am currently blogging to get feedback : geowarsbeta.tk <- with http at the start.
Stuff I am doing to prevent lag:
-Enemies are not visible when offscreen.
-Unwanted movieclips (like bullets) are deleted once offscreen.
-Main ships 'onEnterFrame' is split up in to lot of small functions.

i seem to be having some problems with the Vector class in actionscript 3 in a Flex Project or an ActionScript Project it is possible to do this var v:Vector.<String>; But when i do the same thing in a Flex Library Project (to create an SWC) then i get the following error on that line of code 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: String.
so when using Flex Library Project it fails..., but when i compile the same thing using compc there are no problems any idea why only the library project is complaining about Vector ?

As you all know, Vector support type checking by added Type parameter.
var v:Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();
I wonder if I am able to create a custom class that have Type parameter, something like this
var myClassInstance: MyClassDefinition.<String>;

Is there no way to extend the vector class or write functions for a generic vector without specifying the class? There are a few basic reusable functions I want to use and I'd prefer to stick with vectors rather than arrays.

I have a CSV reader class that parses a CSV file.....
1,11.15126526
2,11.28306635
3,10.78296071
4,10.79878325
The CSV reader class works and produces a Vector.<Point> ... However the container class (which includes an instance of the CSVFile class) needs to access the resultant Vector. Whenever I 'return' the Vector.<Point> to the container via a CSV method it is always empty...I don't know if its something to do with the size of the Vector<> or what?

I'm doing an geometry object tranformations for a project. I need to have same rectangle across 4 parts in a screen. So when i change one rectangle others will be transformed like scaling or something.So i was able to do this with image, just giving "source" attribute. How to do with geometry objects?[code]

how to change the geometry to something exported from maya using collada but the problem lies when i rotate the object. the cube rotates just fine but any toher geometry that isnt a perfect square gets all fecked up when you rotate. as you can see from the shape i have currently the top and bottom rotate just fine. im guessing it has to do with the math.cos and math.sin but really not sure.

am pretty new to Kirupa and Flash. I have a little problem, concerning a character hitting a wall. What i have: a char that can jump and move around by the arrow keys. What i need: character shall stop movement if he hits a geometry. But being able to start movement again, besides through the geometry. I'd like to reach this with gskinners CheckForCollision class. Have a look here: [URl] But i didnt manage my code to get it work. So maybe you could leak me some information on how to get this done. Heres my code so far:
[Code]...
edit admits: so far i have a character mc called "player" and one called "level". i would apply the code to the player, and it would be cool to have the possibility to check collision of the player with multiple MCs, not only the level.

__AS3__.vec:Vector.ie.aro.floorplanviewer.model.buildingVOs:ConfigurationVO>[code]....
which surprises me as ConfigurationVO inherits from NodeVO.Is the compiler really not able to figure out that a Vector of a superclass should be able to hold a reference to a Vector of a subclass?

I have been tasked with trying to create a drawing tool that draws dotted lines as you drag the mouse across the stage. I can easily capture the points on MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE and store them in a vector and then draw the points as dots:
The problem is that I need to calculate evenly distributed points on an ever growing Vector of points so I can only draw the line between say every 5th point (say using modulus). I have been battling away with Bezier curve equations both Quadratic and Cubic but still can't quite figure out how to convert my Vector of points into an evenly distributed Vector of Points without sucking the life from the CPU.

I am currently being confused by the Vector class.I wrote a beautiful XML to TypedClass parser. Works beautifully and without fault. UNTIL a co-worker noticed we got a Conversion Error for Vector.<Number> to Vector.<*>.
Every Vector I've ever tested all extend Vector.<*>.
Vector.<Sprite>, Vector.<String>, Vector.<Point>, Vector.<Boolean>, Vector.<TextField>, Vector.<CustomObject>, etc etc etc. ALL of them.
<type name="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<String>" base="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<*>" isDynamic="true" isFinal="false" isStatic="false">
<extendsClass type="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<*>"/>
[code]...
But then when I use describeType on Vector.<Number>, Vector.<uint> and Vector.<int>.
<type name="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<Number>" base="Object" isDynamic="true" isFinal="true" isStatic="false">
<extendsClass type="Object"/>
<constructor>
[code]....
Now I have accounted for these 3 vectors individually as even uint and int does not extend Vector.<Number> as I would have expected.
And my parsing function works for all types correctly again. But my confusion comes as to WHY this is the case, and why I couldn't find any documentation on the subject.
