Actionscript 3 :: Passing Custom Class As Parameter To Custom Class Where Parameter Class Not Constructed?
Jun 16, 2011I have a custom class being constructed from my main class. In the custom class it has another custom class that is passed in as a parameter. I would like to strictly type the parameter variable but when I do, 'the type is not a compile type constant etc'.This, I understand, is because the custom class used as a parameter has not yet been constructed.It all works when I use the variable type ( * ) to type the parameter.I suspect this is a design flaw, in that I am using an incorrect design pattern.It is actually hand-me-down code, having received a large project from someone else who is not entirely familiar with oop concepts and design patterns.
I have considered using a dummy constructor for the parametered class in my main class but the passed in class also takes a custom class (itself with a parametered constructor). I am considering using ... (rest) so that the custom classes' parameters are optional.Is there any other way to control the order of construction of classes? Would the rest variables work?edit)in main.as within the constructor or another function

Apr 7, 2009I'm trying to load an external SWF into an MC. The SWF is determined by a variable in the main MC. The first frame of my main MC contains a preloader, in the second I have added the following line of actionscript code decalaring the variable;var dealershipName = "bellville";From the main menu a seporate MC is loaded onto level 1, from within this MC depending on the var declared in my main MC the external SWF is loaded into an MC called staff. The actionscript code used for this is as follows;loadMovie("http://www.baronsbellville.starterweb.co.za/staff/"+_root.dealershipName+"/nvss.swf", this.staff);To the best of my limited knowledge at runtime the "+_root.dealershipName+" should be replaced with bellville and the file should load. This is not the case though. If I replace the "+_root.dealershipName+" with bellville in the above url it works fine.
View 3 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Flex 4.5 Not Listening To Custom Event Dispatched In Custom Class?
Nov 4, 2011I have the following situation:I have an event handler, that displays small messages in my application's statusbar.These messages get passes through by dispatching events from custom components.A simple message could be like "HTTP Error" or so.Now, the main event listener, in the main application file, listens to the event dispatched by any custom component,but seems to refuse listening to events dispatched by custom AS classes.Here is my code for the custom event:
package main.events
{
import flash.events.Event;[code]..
So to sum it all up:
- The event listener listens to the custom event dispatched by any custom component.
- The event listener does not listen to the custom event duspatched by an AS class.
Those who wonder, the event really gets dispatched, that's why I added a trace call.

Actionscript 3 :: Dispatching Events From Parent Class To Child Class
Apr 30, 2010I think this is a pretty simply problem but I do not seem to be able to pull it off. Basically I have a parent class A, and a child class B.Class A instantiates class B with addChild.There is a shared object which is being updated from a java server (red5) that has an event listener attached to it in class A.I have a function in class A which will pass certain, specific updates from this shared object to class B.The problem occurs is that when class B is instantiated, the event listener from class A doesn't work anymore. I have not removed the event listener from A.?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Event From Parent To Child?
Sep 22, 2010I have a simple 2 class game Im working on. It has a document class (BubbleBuster.AS) and a Bubble class (Bubble.AS). In the doc class I made a container sprite called bubbleContainer. I add bubbles (instances of Bubble.AS) to the bubbleContainer. When the game is over I fire a custom event in the bubbleContainer from the doc class like so:Code:bubbleContainer.dispatchEvent(new Event("gameOver"));Now I want to listen for this event in the Bubble children so I can kill tweens and remove things. So in the Bubble.AS I have:Code:parent.addEventListener("gameOver", gameOver);this compiles fine. But as soon the 1st Bubble is added to bubbleContainer I get this error (and no bubble appears):TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dispatching A Custom Event From Parent Swf To Child Swf
May 8, 2010I'm building an all flash site, where one .swf acts as the parent, and other external child .swf's are loaded in using .xml. The "Child.swf's" are a mixture of timeline animations, and coded swf's, and the problem I'm having is that they immediately start playing as soon as they are loaded. I've not been able to find any straightforward "child.start() or child.stop()" solutions, so I assume it's more involved than that.
I thought it might be a good idea if I could dispatch events from the parent swf that will set them going. I'm using the sharedEvents method to communicate in the reverse direction (child to parent), but I don't believe it can be used from parent to child (Please correct me if I'm wrong!) I know I could go to each child and put "stop();" in the first frame, but how do I start it again? I would also prefer it if not all the child .swf's started immediately, but to wait until others have completed their routines. Again the way I see it is to dispatch an event from the parent .swf as soon as I'm ready to set them going.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Shared Custom Event Between Parent And Child Swf On Different Domains?
Aug 23, 2010I have two swfs for a project, I had both of them to dispatch events to each other. Parent loads child and is listening for the compete load event. Once that event is dispatched to the child - the child dispatches a start event back to the parent. I got this working by copying the ModelEvent(my custom event) in each of the flash builder actionscript projects in the exact file structure ( i think i was cheating it there, since )
It broke when I put the swf on separate domains, so I'm thinking I'm missing something to share the custom event class between two swfs.

Flex :: 4 - Multiple Instances Of A Custom Component Listening The Same Event Of A Parent
Jan 28, 2011In short: I need an event listener in a custom component so all its instances (without editing them) react at the same time, fired by a dispatched event in its parent container. In detail: I have a custom component with Tab navigator. (The tabs are intended to show different preferences for different Languages.) I have a button bar with buttons for all the languages. There are a lot of instances of the custom component.
I want to click in a button of the languages bar and get ALL the instances switched to the same tab (the custom component contains the logic to change the tab). I can do it by adding the event listener for EACH INSTANCE of the custom component, so it calls an internal function that changes the tab. But it seems to be very coupled, isn't it? I wonder if it can be done in the master CLASS of the component, so it listen for events in its parent container, whichever it is. In my mind this code shoud work, but it doesn't (obviously ill'use a custom event to pass the new language value): this.parent.addEventListener("lang_change", this.change_tab); This way I can just drop an instance of the component, and see it working for itself.
Actionscript 3 :: Propagate Custom Event To Parent Swf From Element Inside Child Swf
Jul 19, 2011I have two swf file, A.swf and B.swf, each with its Document Class: B.swf is loaded in a MovieClip of A.swf. When loaded, B.swf creates an instance of CSDragger (it is a library object with its class extending MovieClip) and sets an ID property of this instance to a certain value. When this dragger is dropped by the user upon a MovieClip it sends a custom event containing the value of ID too. The custom event regularly reaches B.swf but never reaches A.swf. Aside from refactoring the CSDragger class (eg moving its handleDrop method in the B.swf document class), is there any way for the event to reach A.swf? I know I can intercept it and dispatch another event, but I was looking for a different solution (if any).[code]
