ActionScript 3.0 :: Class Is Loading The File But When Return It To A New Xml Object In The Document Class It Doesnt Load It?
Aug 18, 2009
I found myself loading a new XML file every day and so decided to create a small class that will load the xml file and return it.The class is loading the file but when i try to return it to a new xml object in the document class it doesnt load it.I think that it's something to with the return being in a nested function but i tried a few ways and non seems to work.
[DOCUMENT CLASS]
loadXML:LoadXML = new LoadXML();
myXML:XML = new XML(loadXML.loadXMLFile("gallery.xml"));[code].....

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):

Using Flash CS5 Professional I have created a symbol, dragged it onto the stage, and given it an instance name of GreenLight1. If I want to make this visible from the document class, I can simply do the GreenLight1.visible=true; and poof it's good to go when I test the file. As long as I stay in the document class I am good to go, but now I'm trying to move to another class and hitting ALL kinds of trouble just trying to get Flash to allow me to access this simple object. All I am looking to do is have this GreenLight1 go invisible (visible=false) when a certain condition occurs in this new class and Flash just won't let me access GreenLight1 at all. Things I've tried thus far:
stage is passed to the class and is referenced by _stage and is working just fine when I do _stage.addchild or anything like that. So I have tried "_stage.GreenLight1.visible=false;" and I get "ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property GreenLight1 not found on flash.display.Stage and there is no default value." My document class extends Sprite, so I figured I'd try the root function. So I tried "Sprite(root).GreenLight1.visible=false;" and I get "1119: Access of possibly undefined property GreenLight1 through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite." I tried to create the Resource class as described therein. To which I came across the same problem that I started with in that it doesn't know what GreenLight1 is to begin with so I got "1120: Access of undefined property GreenLight1." Here is my code for Resource.as (am I supposed to pass something to this class from the document class?)

Is there a way to link to a class file from the timeline rather than using the Document Class? (I tried using the document class but it messed up because of the nested movie clips and stuff like that... so I need another way)

I am dispatching an event from one document class and listening for it via another document class.My code in class A.
Code:
this.dispatchEvent(new MYEvent(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE));
trace("Dispatching APERTURE_DONE");
my code in class B.
Code:
addEventListener(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE, onDoorsOpen,true);
trace("Lisetning for APERTURE_DONE");
[code]....
My listener is registering before the event is dispatched, based on my output window, however I never get the "Open Doors" trace statement to fire.

I have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.

I have to implement a menu with icons using actionscript only. I create a data provider from XML and set
menu = Menu.createMenu(null, dataArray, true);
menu.iconFunction = iconFunction;
Till here everything is fine and my menu is presented, but only with labels.
I create iconFunction as following:
private function iconFunction(item:Object):Class
{
var st:Loader = new Loader();
st.load(new URLRequest(item.icon));
return ?;
}
how do I return my loader object as Class?

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 have a movie which is placed on the stage in the authoring environment, this movie is called LiftMovie. When the user clicks on a button in LiftMovie, it loads another movie into a placeholder called MallPlaceHolder and the LiftMovie has its visibility set to false.From the document class of the movie loaded into MallPlaceHolder, if the user clicks on the image of the Lift in the mall, I want it to make the LiftMovie visible again.

How do you return data from a custom class, and only when something in the custom class has completed something. For example, let's say I have this code in the custom class[code]...
This, of course, doesn't work. I need the whatever.getLoadedObject() method to wait until the loading has finished inside the custom class then do whatever with the image loaded.

Is there a way I can load a swf file but not automatically instantiate it's DocumentClass? Instead I want to do something like the following:
protected function mainLoaded(e:Event = null):void {
trace('mainLoaded');
var main:* = this.mainLoad.createClassByName('Main');
trace(main);
}
Where mainLoad is an instance of CasaLib's SwfLoad and createClassByName is the equivalent to
loaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition();
The thing is that when my swf finishes loading I can see it is created, because of some trace calls, although its obviously not added to the display list.

I have created a image gallery. it uses a document class and several supporting classes. It works great. I need to load that swf gallery.swf into a another movie. When I try to do this I get this error. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at oxylus.rotator::Main()oxylus.rotator.Main is my document class for the gallery.swf that is being loaded into another flash movie.I don't get why it would cause errors as its a compiled swf and should not have references to that class.

I have two files, MenuButton and JerkChicken (my document class...don't ask).
MenuButton loads a font and then creates a textfield with a background rectangle that is inivisible (for a hit state).
In my document class (JerkChicken.as) I build a menu with the following function:
Code:
private function buildMenu() {
var labels:Array = new Array(
"one",
[Code]....
Or something similar...basically I want to take the width of the menu button, add a bit of space and then place down the next menu button (to make a horizontal menu bar).
The problem I am having is menuButton.width is returning 0.
In the menuButton class when I try to trace the width (i.e. trace (_bgWidth)) I am getting the width but when the button is created in the document class, I am not retrieving the width.
I guess what I am looking for is to somehow send "_bgWidth" from the MenuButton class to the document class...but I don't know how to do this.

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at QuizApp/createStatusBox()
at QuizApp()
That's the error message I get when it tries to play. What I have is an swf that loads another when its done, the new swf is blank but has a document class to an AS file. It seems the problem lies when a function is not properly being added to the stage.
The function is added like this..
Code:
package{
public class QuizApp extends Sprite{
public function QuizApp(){
createButtons();
private function createButtons() {
if (this.stage == null) {
trace("STAGE IS NULL!!!");
} var yPosition:Number;
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, addedToStage);

If I have a Document class that extends MovieClip, and I want to use it as the basis for another Document class, is it possible to create a subclass that extends the main document class and use that for a different FLA?
For example,
fla1.fla has a document class of MyMainClass:
public class MyMainClass extends MovieClip
fla2.fla has a document class of MySubClass:
public class MySubClass extends MyMainClass
I've tried, but now I'm getting errors that all of my variables that reference stage instances aren't being found.
