ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamicaly Creating / Acessing Variables
Oct 15, 2010
is it possible to dynamically create variables in actionscript?for example lets say i have some kind of loop and for each itteration of loop i want new variable to be created, or acssed if creatin is not possible. ( tbh i don't need to create them dynamically there is more simple sollution of my problem in real project, am just wandering is it possible )[code]the best i could thought for acessing is filling them in array and acessing it like that.... code works but i am actually trying to make it work without array.[code]

I am trying to use a gotoURL and pass the URL from XML. I am trying to use the date function as a variable number to use in the array in the XML to access the right URL based on the date.
Hmm hard to explain but I think the code might explain it.
Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xml:XML;
var my_date:Date = new Date();

So I have another issue that has me stumped (it's been happening a lot on this project). I have three movieclips1. clip1.swf2. clip2.swf3. clip3.swfThe way it works now is that clip1.swf loads the clip2.swf and clip2.swf loads the clip3.swf. I named clip2.swf to clip_2 and so forth. I'm trying to access the main timeline of clip3.swf (clip_3) which looks like:from the main timeline of clip1.swf
Code:
trace(clip_2) //returns [Object MainTimeline]

So I'm making a flash proggy that displays member details for a guild dynamicaly (calling their bio info from a database) and was wondering if it's possible to also call an image dynamicaly as well?I know I could setup a PHP function to display a set image for each member, but that obviously means manualy placing in images and having to update the entire program each time I want to change a picture and thats obviously no good .. so is it possible for actionscript to call in images stored OUTSIDE of the flash program?

Basicly I'm adding dynamicaly sprites and textfields, which i populate from xml, in for loop. I'm building sort of table, so for every sprite, I'm adding new data in textfields.I've loaded xml and passed data to 2 xmllists, both traced and doing fine... Later on I add data from xmllist to array which then I'm looping in for loop.Problem is that from 1st xmllist, 6 out of 7 textfields are visible, 1 can't be found nowhere :/ from the 2nd xmllist only 1 out of 4 are visible...I've tried everything, tracing them returns that they are visible, on good position, filled with text, contrasted color from background.
PS: here is the part probably causing the problems..
for(mojbroj=0;mojbroj < dohvatiosamih2;mojbroj++){if(mojbroj%2){lista.graphics.beginFill(0xdddddd);lista.graphics.drawRect(150,prenesi+(

I'm making a map creator for a tabletop game. The idea is that the map creator would consist of a 48x48 grid and would allow people to drag items onto that grid and save the positional layout of objects like trees and buildings.So I'm working on the very first steps of this and have written the script so far to dynamicaly generate a 48x48 grid and created a test object to be dragged called "follow".
The dynamicaly generated MC draws from the "grid" MC from the library which consists of two layers; the outline of a box and an MC named "grid_bg" which contains a coloured square (set to the same size as the outline). This is all placed into the "container" MC which by default is empty.This part I get working fine.the "follow" mc is set so that it can be dragged on a mouse click.Now the idea is that if a hitTest is run to see if "follow" is in contact with any of the "grid_bg" MC's and if so, run code (i.e. hide or show the grid_bg mc).
This is where I am encountering problems. If I set the hitTest into a layer within the "grid" MC, it only runs the hit test when the movie is first loaded and ignores you dragging and dropping the "follow" mc. If the hitTest is placed into the actions of the "grid_bg" MC and used in conjuction with an IF statement, it seems to act like there is a collision on every box generated.Code to generate the grid:
Code:
//make textboxes
count=2304;

I have a slide show of either videos or photos. I want the user to be able to click a play button and the video plays or click an arrow and go through a group of photos. The thing that is getting me is the dynamic file loading. I want the user to drop photos or video into a folder and the flash projector file loads them automatically. I don't want naming to be a concern. How would one go about doing this? My intention is to have the user never enter Flash CS3.

My AS3 project is devided in to 4 sections.
1.) load XML file directed from php site and store all data to miltidimensional array
2.) load mc from library to stage and scroll it with mouse move
3.) load pictures into previous scrolling mc on calculated coordinates
4.) add event listener to every loaded pic to open new site
here is part of code that's bugging me:
Code:
var polica_mc:libMc = new libMc;
var container_mc:MovieClip;
if (xmlLoaded == true) {
[Code].....
Problem is that pictures are not loaded into polica_mc (scrolling mc) but outside.

I was wondering if it would be possible to use a for loop to create a couple hundred variables. I wanted to do this so I wouldn't need to type everything out. Right now it looks like:
Code:
var cardname1:int = 0;
var cardname2:int = 0;
var cardname3:int = 0;
[Code]....
Is there a way to create all of these using a for loop?

using flash to create XML, and most tutorials I find on the subject deal with opening external XML files and parsing them in flash, not using flash to make them.Here's my code:

What I am trying to do is create a <measure> element for each item in my array, and then 8 <line> elements in each measure. I'll populate these <line> elements with data later.
Here's what the trace is giving me:
<song>
<measure>
<line></line>
[code]....
The problem I have is that empty space in the first line of <measure>. How do I prevent this from occurring? I can see I will have the same problem when I go to populate the <line> elements as well.

I'm trying to create a template for a drag and drop question. I want to assign which option belongs to the correct target.Each draggable option is called "drag1, drag2, drag3, etc.". (created on the stage) Each target is called "target1, target2, target3, etc." When a button is clicked, the correct answer is checked using a simple if loop and the user is told which ones are correct.
Code:
if (drag1._y = target1._y) {
//show if correct or incorrect

i'm loading several sound files, and want to error check each load. however, instead programming each one with their own complete/error functions, i would like them to all use the same complete/error handler functions.
a successfully loaded sound should create a new sound channel variable, while an unsuccessfully loaded sound will produce a simple trace with the name of the sound that failed to load. however, in order to do this, i need to dynamically create variables, which i haven't yet figured out how to do.
here's my code for my complete and error functions:
function soundLoadedOK(e:Event):void
{
//EX: Sound named "explosion" will create Sound Channel named "explosionChannel"
var String(e.currentTarget.name + "Channel"):SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();

How do i create variables in AS3 that have variables in the name.
for example, i have a for statement that goes from 0 to 5 and what i want it to do is create 5 variables called variable0 -> variable5
in AS2 i remember it was either this["variable"+i] or eval("variable"+i) but i could not figure out what it is in AS3.

I've created a basic function that sets a movieclip to a certain state depending on which mouse cursor is set (determined by a variable called txt_cursor). I can hard code this to work great for the one single movie clip but potentially have to do this for 624 other movie clips so obviously want to create a for loop to reproduce this.
Code:
chk1.onRelease = function()

So what I'm trying to do, is allow users to create a bike type game. There are four different parts to it that they can choose (frame, material, tires, and handelbars), each that change one of the four different statistics (weight, durability, speed, and maneuverability) and I'd like it to update these global statistic variables each time a part is changed so that the statistic bars can update.I want to have the bike frame, when selected, to set a base for all 4 variables, and then each other part will add to it. This is what I did so far. . .
on the framescript I just have:
_global.durability = (_global.framedur + _global.materialdur);
_global.weight = (_global.frameweight + _global.materialweight);

I have done some (like 2 hours worth) research and have come up short, so while I browse the forums for a bit more help Basically what I'm trying to do is create a number of variables, depending on how many items are in an xml document.For example, I am running a for(){} loop to pull all the data I need out, and I would like to store it in the format:photo1.filename = whatever; photo1.value2 = whatever;
and so on. All the object property names (filename, value2 in the example) would be the same (obviously the values would be different), but I need the number of objects (photo1 in the example) to depend on how many nodes are in the xml document.

i am loading several images from an XML path into a flash movie and i want to dynamically create image loader variables for them. Here is my code so far:
Code:
var xmlData:XMLList;
var myXML:XML;
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code]....
method and this doesn't work for me either, i'm guessing thats because it is in the AS2 forum.
