ActionScript 3.0 :: Call A Function Using Array Index?

Aug 11, 2010

I've defined an array which stores the function name, like this:
 
var aresetButtonTop:Array = new Array(resetTop1,resetTop2,resetTop3,resetTop4,resetTop5);  
 
Then I have a button named"btnresetTop" which when clicked will call one of the five functions stored in the above array(aresetButtonTop). The functions are called at run-time depending upon some conditions. I need to figure out how I can call those functions using the array index. I'm using the following code to call the function. The value of i has been already calculated.

btnresetTop.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aresetButtonTop[i]);
 
After doing this I'm getting the following error when I click the button:
 
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter listener must be non-null.    at flash.events::EventDispatcher/addEventListener()    at gallerytest_fla::MainTimeline/thumbTopClick()
 
Note: thumbTopClick() is a function inside which all these codes are written.
 
I need to find out whether it is posible in AS3 to call a function name using the array index or not.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Array Index To Function Correctly (xml)?

Aug 25, 2005

i can load xml, get what i want out of the nodes, attach mc's accordingly, etc. but i'm having trouble figuring out the best way to build a function for a button inside each dynamic mc that works correctly.I can build the function (which should load the corresponding variable's value for the array's position) but when the button is clicked it actually loads the variable associated with one array index position up.so if i'm clicking on the button that's supposed to load [0], I get the value for [1]'s variable. make sense?ode:

Flash :: Get The Specific Array Index Based On Value Inside The Index's Object?

Jun 22, 2011

So, for sending to individual streams we have to reference the connected netStream we want to send to in some way like this:

sendStream.peerStreams[0].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);

and I have to determine which peer I'm sending to by their ID such as "peerID1234"

I know that you can check the peerID of the stream by doing:

sendStream.peerStreams[0]["farID"]

how can I make my send stream function know to use the array index where the peerID is?

so basically it could be like:

sendStream.peerStreams[where peerStreams[]["farID"] == peerID].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);

ActionScript :: Flex - Call A Varargs Function With An Array?

Aug 11, 2009

I need to call a varargs function:

function doSomething(... args): Object {
// do something with each arg
}

However, I'm building the arguments for this dynamically:

var someArgs: Array = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
doSomething(someArgs);

The problem is, when I call the function in this way args ends up being a 1-element array with someArgs as the first element, not a three-element array.How can I call doSomething with someArgs as the argument array?(For the search engines, this is argument unpacking)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Call A Function Which Parses The Xml Data And Puts It Into An Array?

Jun 30, 2004

i've got a scenario that i'm working thru on paper first and wanted to run it by everyone to see if i'm doing it correctly and most importantly, efficiently so, here goes...the situation | an instance of the DateChooser component reads an xml file which houses info for homework assignments and their due dates. if there is a due date, make sure that date is highlighted on the DateChooser component. from what i've been told, the xml file stores urls which will tell if there is s/thing due on a particular date.

[code]...

What needs to happen as soon as the xml file is loaded? i.e. do i call a function which parses the xml data and puts it into an array? then the DateChooser component iterates thru the array looking for boolean values noting if there is an activity or not and if so, on which day. if it finds one, it sets its highlight property to true for that particular day.

Arrays :: Actionscript 3 - Creating A New Array For Eache Iteration Of The Function Call. AS3

Oct 5, 2011

so I have writing a function that returns objects on the stage and puts them into an array. and the function works fine until i call the function on more than one object name, meaning if im in the root class, and I call this function on object1 lets say it will add all the object one's from the stage, but if i call it on object2 it will throw an error, which makes some sense, i guess it means that it is not adding it to a unique array, but im not sure how to do that. would it be a good idea to maybe make a multidimensional array? if that is the case would it be too slow?

a,b,c,d,g,,e,f (here after the g it goes wrong)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Call External Swfs In An Empty MC On The Index Page?

May 28, 2008

I am currently building a website and what i need to do is to call external swfs in an empty MC on the index page regarding which buttons of the nav you clicked on.It works, very nicely. But then i need to be able to preload another swf on the index when i click on a thumbnail.

e.g: index load the "who.swf" first. On the who.swf there are 2 thumbnail and when click it must replace the "who.swf" with contact.swf. It works but the only problem is that i cant make the preloader of the index to preload the empty MC which load all the external swf.

Is it because i am using loadMovie and not loadCLip.

Flash :: Call Anonymous Function From ExternalInterface.call() Method?

Nov 4, 2010

I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.

Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()

AS:

ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);

JS:

var someVar = "Test";

This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting An Array's Index?

Jan 18, 2011

I have a game map made of tiles, each tile is stored in an array called _tiles.The very each tile has a "plantable" parameter, which determines whether or not something can be placed on it.Then i loop through the array and check the position of each its elements against the mosue cursor, so I know which tile am I hovering with my mouse.

And it works pretty good. The problem is that even though I know what is the position of the tile I'm having the cursor on, I still lack the knowledge of what index is that tile. I simply can't tell where exactly in the array is placed this tile. I just know its position. The reason why I want to know the index of it, is because it's the only way for me to set a proper flag, namely whether it's plantable or not. Here's the code:

ActionScript Code:
for(var j:int = 0; j < _tiles.length; j++)
{
