ActionScript 3.0 :: Inheritance / Interface - Override A Function That Return An Object Of Class A And Make It Return An Object Of Class B Which Extends A?
Aug 4, 2009I'm having some troubles with the use of interface and inheritance in AS3. I've done lots of OOP in the past and what I'm trying to do seems obvious to me, but doesn't work in AS3. The question is : Is it possible to override a function that return an Object of class A, and make it return an Object of Class B which extends A ? It seems not to be possible, since I'm getting a signature error in Flash, when compiling. For example, the following set of class do not compile (the code in function definition doesn't matter):

ActionScript 3.0 :: Return An Object With A Function?
Jun 18, 2009I'm trying to create a function that determines which of 4 similar classes to create, and returns the new object itself.
Basically, I have a base class (Panel) that has 3 additional variations in layout, each of which has a subclass: TextPanel, FeaturePanel, and LinkPanel. The two parameters for my function are the "kind" of window to create and its name ("linkString"), both of which are provided by external XML. I'm wondering if it's even possible to return the new Panel as an object...?
My code will probably explain this better than I can:
Code:
// create the new Panel variable ("addPanel") with a call to newPanel:
var addPanel = newPanel(linkList[i].attribute("kind"), linkString);
Code:
// newPanel function:
[Code].....
within the Panel constructor, the provided string (linkString / 'h') is set as the Panel's .name. I did not copy that function into the subclasses, since they inherit it - unless I'm mistaken.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Can Not Return A Value
Nov 19, 2009I'm communicating to these movie clips with another program via binary sockets.For the first set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will jump to the frame corresponding with that number. for ex:if the incoming data from the socket is (mc7+3), then movieclip 7 will jump to frame 3.
For the second set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will move location across the screen, by the y coordinate moving to the # given by the socket...thats a little confusing. for ex: if the incoming data from the socket is (mc4+500), then movieclip 4 will move so that it's y coordinate is at 500.[code]...

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Slideshow - Return Value From Function Should Be 20 But Instead I Get 0 ?
Jan 3, 2009I've run into a bit of a snag on this slideshow I'm trying to create. My plan involves adding movie clips from the library by attaching them to an empty movieClip. Then using setInterval and a variable as a counter, it increments in the function. When the number reaches "20" the first movieclip is removed and the next one is displayed. Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc", 1);
canvas_mc._x = 75;[code]....
//How do you bring on the second slide when the first is removed? So, my problem is that I'm thinking that the return value from my function should be 20 but instead I get 0 in the trace statement.My plan was if it equaled 20 to bring the next slide out from the library, thus moving forward with the slideshow.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Return Value From Function That Does SendAndLoad?
Feb 4, 2009In the code below - fRequest_activate initiates a sendAndLoad - all fine and dandy. Thing is - I want to be able to return a value from this function that indicates whether the server response was satisfactory - and I can't work out how to to it.Because the onLoad function is nested within my fRequest_activate function it has all got a bit messy - and just doesn't work - how do I pass the status from an asynchronous server call - which at the moment is picked up by the onLoad callback, back to my original function? - or should I just approach this problem in a different way? All I want to do is call one function - and know if it has been successful or not in talking to my server.
Code:
function fRequest_activate():String {
var lvEmail_send:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var lvEmail_response:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code]...............

ActionScript 2.0 :: Assign The Return Value Of A Function?
Oct 19, 2005I was just curious if you HAVE to assign the return value of a function to something in order to preform operations on it.
Code:
something.getClip().onRelease = function() {
//
}
Thats probably illegal right? It's illegal in C++, but theres usually a way to get around it like.. (getFocusClip()).onRelease. Or should I just forget it and do it the right way:
Code:
var tempClip:MovieClip = something.getClip();
tempClip.onRelease = function() {
//
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Datatype Should A Function Return?
Apr 17, 2007The title of this post may not make much sense, let me explain. I have a function:
findSurface(origin:Point, vector:Point, attempts:Number):Point The function has an obscure use, but the idea is thus: given those three arguments, returns a point IF the 'line' (created by the origin and vector arguments) intersects the object the function is called on. [but that is another story...]
More importantly, if there is no point of intersection at all, what should the function return? Void? Null? Undefined? Object? Or can I use one of those return types instead of Point incase the function does not encounter an intersection?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Return URLVariables From A Function?

eg:

Now what I would like to do is assign "variables" to a variable:
var theVar = varsLoaded();
trace(theVar.var1);
Obviously the code above isn't correct; just to illustrate what I'm hoping to accomplish.
