ActionScript 2.0 :: Typecast From String To Int?

Nov 3, 2004

I am developing a small game and I read external text files for points per question. I use the kirupa's method in reading from file the simple way -

score_onepic1_1pc1=3&score_onepic2_1pc1=-7&score_onepic3_1pc1=-3&score_onepic4_1pc1=-5

While running the program and at this statement -
_root.txtScore=_root.txtScore+this.score_onepic2_1 pc1;

, the score gets concatanated rather than summimg them up. Is there any way to specify explictly that the expression is an math rather than string operation??

ActionScript 3.0 :: ClassCast Exception In Loaded SWF?

Aug 25, 2009

I'm developing a menu driven application with flex and php (ZendFramework). The menu is my main swf, each form is an extra swf loaded with SWFLoader. For the communication with php I'm using AMF3 value objects.My problem is that I get a class cast exception with these value objects, if the form swf is loaded once again.menu item one with a data grid is selected, every operation in the data grid is possible menu item two is selected menu item one is selected once again: any operation in the data grid causes a class cast exception.I tried two different ways of class cast:

var po:pmsPOsVO = pmsPOsVO(dataGridPOs.selectedItem);var po:pmsPOsVO = dataGridPOs.selectedItem as pmsPOsVO; 
The first method is causing the following error:

Jul 2, 2010

I'm trying to read xml fields (with actionscript 3), but the problem is that I choose which field to read dynamically. For example, I may need to read test19 or test39 or test12 or anything else.

var value:Number = event.result.test19;
var value:Number = event.result.test39;
var value:Number = event.result.test12;

Is there a way to construct that event.result.test19 part dynamically? Something like the code idea below

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Load A Library Mc Using A String?

Feb 22, 2009

I want to load one out of 18 different instances from my library (exported as mc1-mc18). In AS2 this was simple! I fetched the variable (whC) that contained the name of the movieclip to be loaded and just put it into attachMovie

AS2:

Code:
_loc.attachMovie(whC,"clip"+k,this.getNextHighestDepth());

In AS3 do I have to use this long if/else statement to make it work the same?

Code:
public function fetchTile(whC:String):MovieClip {
if (whC=="mc1") {
fetched= new mc1();

Regex :: Use The String.match Method To Find Multiple Occurrences Of The Same Word In A String?

May 25, 2010

In Actionscript and Adobe Flex, I'm using a pattern and regexp (with the global flag) with the string.match method and it works how I'd like except when the match returns multiple occurrences of the same word in the text. In that case, all the matches for that word point only to the index for the first occurrence of that word. For example, if the text is "cat dog cat cat cow" and the pattern is a search for cat*, the match method returns an array of three occurrences of "cat", however, they all point to only the index of the first occurrence of cat when i use indexOf on a loop through the array. I'm assuming this is just how the string.match method is. I want to find the specific indices of every occurrence of a match, even if it is of a word that was already previously matched.

I have a String variable in my flex (flash builder 4) application containing CSV data. I need to allow the user to download this data to a local file. For example, giving them a "csv" button to click and it might present them with a save file dialog (and I would be sending the contents of my string variable).Is this possible / how ?I am using the ResuableFX component for the datagrid to csv. This the code I ended up with that works to save the string to a text file for the user (in a web browser):

Apr 7, 2011

Im playing around with the last.fm api... Specifically the "getLovedtracks" call.... [URL] This is a weird one that I have never come across... The above call requires a username to return a track listing so if I hard code the username into my class like this.... var username:string = "aidanmack" No problems the call works... if I make that username equal to a dynamic text box string that has "aidanamck" typed into it..
so something like... var username:string = mystage.textbox.text

the last.fm api wont except this... I get user does not exist But if I check the call with the charles proxy Flash is defo sending the username "aidanmack" So I wonder if its to do with have how last.fms api interprets the string?

String :: Achieve Fast And Effective String Compression

Dec 2, 2011

I have an Object which stores pairs for a find and replace that I perform on up to 1500 Strings at a time.The Object is populated with pairs using a method that will accept a String and then store this as a property with the value being an automatically assigned base 36 number, like this:[code]nextShort returns an automatically incremented value being the subject of .toString(36), so running the above a few times might make _pairs look like this:[cod]ehowever in my mind I foresee a massive problem in a case where I might want to "shorten" 2000+ Strings and the _pairs Object has at the same time has over 500 pairs.That ends up being 1,000,000 iterations all up which obviously doesn't seem very efficient at all.
