ActionScript 3.0 :: File Size And Loading Classes?

Feb 6, 2010

i have several custom classes which all contain Sprites.does the fact that each as file imports flash.display.Sprite increase file size?i would assume when compiling that flash is smart enough to just import each package once but i just want to make sure.an over simplified example (obviously in this example the over all effect is 0 but i am starting to have more and more custom classes so i want to know)say i have a simple class that extends sprite to include an index property.

public class NewSprite extends Sprite {
public var index:int
}

now if in my code i would like to have "Sprite"s and "NewSprite"s for my own benefit of keeping track of what needs an index but does it add to file size to import flash.graphics.Sprite twice or would i be better off just importing NewSprite.also if i add variables to a custom class but dont give them a value does it take up extra space - for instance if the above NewSprite had 99999 indices instead of 1 - i am assuming if each index has a value the NewSprite is much bigger, but if i leave each index null, does it still increase file size?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get Image File Size Prior To Loading?

Oct 16, 2009

I am using the MovieClipLoader class to load a bunch of images, and I am trying to build a loader that has a single percentage for the whole batch of images. I need the.bytesTotalof every image prior to loading them, so that I know the total number of bytes I am working with to calculate the total percent of all images that have been downloaded.

My issue is that it seems to be loading the images in a generally linear way (loads all of the first pic, then starts loading the second pic, etc...) and .bytesTotal is returning as 0 for all pics that have not yet started loading.

Anyone know how I can grab the total bytes of each image prior to the actual download of the image?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Frame 1 Size Grows Even Though Preloader Is Small File Size

Jun 24, 2011

I made a preloader for my single scene movie and although the preloader is about 16k, when placed into frame 1 of the movie and tested, the frame is shown to have about 256k, which is larger than the movie it's loading.  I've gone through all the files and made sure that export in frame 1 is not checked and made sure the publish settings also are set to export in frame 1.

Actionscript 3 :: Incompatible Classes When Loading SWF?

Apr 2, 2010

I have two ActionScript 3 projects, game(.swf) and minigame(.swf). At runtime the main game loads the minigame via Loader. I also have a shared library (SWC) of event classes, included by both, which minigame will need to dispatch and game will need to listen to.

First: Is this possible this way? Second: What will happen if I compile the minigame, then change the event classes so they're incompatible, then compile the main game. Will Flash crash when trying to load the minigame SWF? (I hope so)

Third: And what will happen if I change the event classes, but in a way that preserves interface-level compatibility?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading And Passing Images To Classes

Oct 21, 2010

I have a AS3 game with about 300 images to load.
Method A) Now what I do in .net is load images required in each class e.g., Player class has 50 images to do with player movement and Enemy Class has 50 images to do with enemy movement.
Method B) I have read in AS3 you usually load all the images in the game in 1 class and pass the array of images on to the relevant classes so player/enemy images are loaded in a load class and then pass on those images to the classes.
Which method is best as I prefer method A?

Javascript :: Flash Library For File Upload With File Size Limit And Progress Bar?

Jan 13, 2012

Is there any "mainstream" library used for this purpose? Commonly spread, well maintained, documented etc.I found these (using flash):

Uploadify - not many releases, latest 12/2010, no documentation (!)
SWFUpload - latest release 03/2010, documentation
fancyupload - looks buggy.

phpfileuploader - looks heavyweight, and looks commercial (?) I cannot read the licence (you can download it but are you allowed to use it forever without paying?) plupload New version of pure javascript (no flash) Valums' ajax upload claims to handle file size limit and progress bar, which is quite suspicious to me: these features require to guess the file size before the upload, which seems impossible in javascript (look also here). Or can it work?

Data Integration :: Loading XML Using A Custom Class And Accessing It From Other Classes?

Aug 30, 2006

I began with a class for a movie clip rollover function FigureRollOver. It works marvellously. Three things happen:

1) it loads XML from a file "mod1_fig1.xml" and uses another class, XMLMember, to retool the scoping of the XML so that I can get at it

2) an onload call inside of XMLMember calls the myOnLoad function and transfers the XML into an array.

3) so long as the array is finished building, rolling over a movie clip attaches a new movie clip with the rollover text in it.But I don't want all those functions in one because I need it to be more dynamic, starting with being able to load any old xml file instead of just "mod1_fig1.xml", plus it seems lik overbuilding to have all of that in one class, so I've separated out the loading of the XML and building of the array into its own class, FigureXMLLoader. FigureRollOver is then left to just attach the rollover with text in it, extracted from the array built by the new class.

Problem is, though the array builds inside FigureXMLLoader, I can't figure out how to make it available outside the class. I know that I'm constructing things in the wrong order, and that the array needs to be somehow built inside the class function to be available, but I can't figure out how to do that. A cruddy work-around is to put a function call at the end of the building of the array, which calls yet ANOTHER function on the main timeline of my .swf to put the array I've just built into a new variable.This works, but it's messy. It seems like I should be able to have one line of script in the .swf that generates an array on the main timeline (or just a public array) which I can then access from my FigureRollOver class:

var myRollOvers:Array = new FigureXMLLoader("mod1_fig1.xml");

Here is FigureXMLLoader (see comments in the code for more details) which obviously does not return an array as it is, because of all the working around I've had to do. Note the "testing" variable, which can be traced from the main timeline of the .swf, but I will get "not what I want" because of course the array hasn't been built yet, and never will be, inside of the declaration as it is. How do I get it in there so I can return an array?

Professional :: Loading External Swfs Extending From Classes In The Same Shared Codebase?

Jul 25, 2011

I'm currently developing a game in flash and want to be able to divide up my .fla assets in a way that means artists can work on a game menu .fla in isolation from the game.fla and rest of the game code.If I could briefly explain how I've approached this so far, I would be extremelyMy project is setup like this:HighScoreMenu.fla -> document class HighScoreMenu extending GameMenu class.game.fla ->document class game.asgame.as class loads the published HighScoreMenu.swf and manipulates the menu i.e. animates on and off screen via inherited functions in the GameMenu class.

Now this seemed to work to begin with, until my code evolved and upon going to publish my HighScoreMenu.fla flash started complaining about symbols being used in Game.as that were in Game.fla... If I'm only publishing the HighScoreMenu which extends from GameMenu then why is it even looking to compile Game.as

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading External Files Onto Movie Clip Derived Classes?

Oct 28, 2009

I'm attempting to use the movieClipLoader to load a file onto an instance of a class derived from movieclip. For some reason, this doesn't seem to work, because after it successfully loads, the array that contains these derived class instances suddenly become movie clips and lose all their derived variables (tracing them resutls in 'undefined').So I thought there must be another way. Perhaps there is a way to copy the image data from one movie clip to another, or someone suggested taking a snap shot of the first movie clip and then applying it to the second as a bitmap.

Any Way To Import Classes In AS File?

Jul 7, 2009

I tried to import a class in a .as file and I had strange behaviors that I cannot explain. First of, I tried to get work a senocular class by importing it locally his script in the same directory of my main .as class.

package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;
import duplicateDisplayObject;

There was no error returned from the compiler saying not found but there was one telling my class is still undefined as when I try to make the class work. (possibly undefined method). So I did it with the old fashion I found in some demos, placing the .as file in a com/senocular/display/ folder:

package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;
import com.senocular.display.duplicateDisplayObject;

And then no errors. The compiler recognize the class and execute it.

Flex :: Actionscript Classes To 1 SWC File

Mar 13, 2010

I'm using Flash Builder 4 (the version after Flex Builder 3, so very similar to Flex Builder 3) and have a bunch of actionscript classes that I frequently need to reference. I have them in a separate folder/package to keep things clean.

I know that it's possible to create a SWC from these actionscript files. My question is how do I do it in Flash Builder 4 or Flex Builder 3. Do I need other tools? My objective is just to use the SWC in the project and keep things clean instead of dragging around all these files.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Classes In One File

Dec 5, 2009

So, what exactly are the rules on several classes inside of one AS file?So far, the only way I have been able to do this is by putting the class outside of the package brackets with no namespace selected (which I believe means 'internal' by default, right?)[code]So, using this notation, I'm wondering if a few things are possible:

1. Putting several 'secret' classes in the same AS file?

2. Making these classes public via the "Main" class, the one that the AS file is actually made for?Both examples applied here. Are these the right ways to do this?:[code]

3. Since these classes are marked as internal, they should be available to classes which extend the Main class AND classes in the same package without any import statements, correct?

4. Does embedding classes like this affect performance in any way?

5. Will these embedded classes always be compiled even if they are never accessed or referenced, similar to Library items or other classes?
