Just getting started with ActionScript 3, which is, I'm told, an object-oriented langauge.Therefore I am trying to find the language's Document Object Model (DOM), but I cannot find it anywhere.This would be a comprehensive outline of all AS3 objects with their respective properties, methods, etc. Any real OOP language would have this.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to define a callback to my model object, via the Mate Frameworks LocalEventMap.
<EventHandlers type="{WebServiceEvent.RT_GET}" debug="true">
<HTTPServiceInvoker url="/services/rtGet.asp">
<resultHandlers>
[Code]....
I get essentially the same error if I try to make method="model.rtGetHandleResult"
So, in keeping with the presentation model... how do I have the event map get this to the model to execute?
I'll be working along on a project, using a Document class, adding new functionality, then all of a sudden I make a change in a class file, and my Root FLA can't find my doc class. Nothing has changed in my folder structure, I haven't changed my FLA or the doc class in weeks, but now suddenly I can't link to it anymore. I try changing the file names, and re linking, no luck. In the end I have to make copies of the entire project folder, rename things again, create a new .as file for the doc class and copy all my code into it.

I'm making a game where I have must have some objects like weapons and characters, which I in the end would like to get visual as a sprite or movieclip
Should I write the logic for the objects in several classes and then make a reference to the object in a sprite class like the following :

And then when I need to do damage just call the WeaponSprite's method weaponModel() when I need to acces the methods or should I just merge the two together into one class.?
I have a App.fla file on a path and a App.as file on the same path. On the Class field I put "App" and on the ActionScript Settings Source path there is "." which means the same path of the .fla file, right? I open the App.fla file and click on the little "pencil" icon in order to edit App.as but then Flash whether tells me there's no class file associated or it opens a new ActionScript file.
So I can't do nothing , I even copied all code into the App.as , and pasted into the new ActionScript file it generates when I click the little pencil button. It still cannot find the god damned class. A little detail, I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.2. I've been working full time with flash on a Windows and that never happened to me before. That hasn't happend to me on Mac either (though I have hardly used it to do FLASH/AS).
I'm trying to publish an iPhone game and I have downloaded everything I need to allow me to publish through flash. I'm on a pc and I can't figure out what the password is of the .p12 certificate I made in openssl is. Here are the steps I've used:
I create my key:
openssl genrsa -out mykey.key 2048
I create a CSR with the correct info
openssl req -new -key mykey.key -out CertificateSigningRequest.certSigningRequest -subj "/emailAddress=yourAddress@example.com, CN=John Doe, C=US"
I upload this to apple and then download the certificate they send me, which I convert to a PEM with this code:
openssl x509 -in developer_identity.cer -inform DER -out developer_identity.pem -outform PEM
For my final step, I generate the .p12 using this:
openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey mykey.key -in developer_identity.pem -out iphone_dev.p12
Flash requires I enter the .p12, the .p12 password, and the provisioning profile I got from apple.
Here's a link to the tutorial I used if you want any more info: [URL]
I would like to be able to access all the components of say a Flash image gallery on someone else's site. I want to be able to find the images, image coordinates, action script code, audio files, video, etc. I do not want to manipulate these elements, I just want to view them and their related information.
View 2 RepliesI have created an enemy object from document class. if my enemy score becomes zero, the enemy must get removed.Is there any way to remove that object by destroy the object from document class?.
View 2 RepliesAs it is said here: [URL] "If you do a Google search today for "MVVM and Flex", the first post is by somebody who claims that MVVM is not a good fit for Flex. I couldn't disagree more. Out of the box, the Flex framework makes it much easier to implement a Presentation Model than similar MVVM implementations in Silverlight. That is not to say that there aren't good third-party libraries that make it easier in Silverlight, but without any help, it is easier to do in Flex." So MVVM as LOGICAL CONCEPT can be implemented in both but the way it is implemented in Silverlight requires more Plumbing than Flex.
What prevents Silverlight MVVM to be implemented like Flex ? Doesn't Silverlight have same capability in event system to do the same? If yes why does Silverlight do things more complicated what's the advantages then ? Is it about using Class Interfaces which are more strongly typed? What are the disadvantages also ? For example as for implementing MULTIPLE VIEWS for 1 View-Model does Flex implementation make it also more obvious?

imagine i have a scene with hundreds of interactive objects, but they're all invisible, and i don't really know where they are. bad scenario, but work with me here.a while ago i saw a block of code that would trace() the name of every single DisplayObject within the entire scene when you rolled over it.. it was only like 3 lines of code - and it would affect all objects, even objects inside of other movieclips, etc.

View 2 RepliesIs there any "automatic way" to casts an "Object" to a personalized Model Data Type in ActionScript 3?
[Code]..
Manish's answer was enough for me and according to rcdmk's comment, the p:String isn't about the Type of data that the loop will go through, it is actually the name of the property, which makes sense because every name is a String.
If the size of the Document object in a Flash application is not set explicitly, how is its size determined?
View 5 RepliesSo I was just sitting and fooling a bit around in flash, when I decided to change the colour of an object through and XML document, that ofcause contained the colourcode. So I made a little, very basic, action script, but it doesn't seem to work. When I open the page, the object turns black, so the setRGB works, but because it can't find any of the xml, flash writes 000000, and therefore it turns black. Well, that's what I'm guessing. The point is, it isn't working, and I really don't know why.

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.

View 1 RepliesI have a couple of components on stage that I need to disable mouse events on. I've been looking through the documentation, and it looks like the components probably have a Mouse listener setup, and then they fire off their functions when their listeners are notified of an event. In order to remove a Mouse listener, I need to know the instance name of the listener object, is there a way of referencing this? I couldn't find it as a built-in function.
