basically i want to populate an array with some data, photoArray[count]= varLoader.data.nombre; the problem is that "nombre" is suposed to be a variable, this is inside a loop and i have "nombre = "pic" + count;" before it, but it wont work, how am i suposed to call it?
View 3 RepliesI want to monitor a variable. Whenever the variable value changes I want to call a function. In actionscript 2 I can use "watch" but in as3 what can do ?

Created a simple class
ActionScript Code:
package Pic{
public class PLoader{
import flash.events.*;

URL never equates to anything. But if I trace it inside the class, it shows up correctly.
how do I wait until URL is set from inside the class before calling to the property?
I have a dynamic Class and what I would like to do is call a method everytime a property is appended to the class during run-time.

If I have a .mxml file that has a method in it and a public property, can I have the method execute whenever the property changes.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

In another .mxml file I have added this .mxml file like so:
<viewComponents:MyViewComponent myProperty="{myVariable}" />
To my knowledge, there are 3 options:1 - parent.publicPropertyOrMethod.2 - using static vars/methods.3 - dispatching events.Under best practise for OOP development, which is the "best" method? Are there any more?I dislike #1 and never use it as it and can easily descend into hideous parent.parent.parent references that are easily broken. #2 has it's own problems whereby attempting to get/set instance variables doesn't always work through a static function (I am yet to completely understand this). #3 is great for triggering methods (I use this the most) but sucks for altering class properties and suchlike.

getEventsFromFacilityIDResult.token = currenteventService.getEventsFromFacilityID(facilityIDArray.getItemAt(i));
getEventsFromFacilityIDResult.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT,toShowArray);
}
then this is the function that is called by the service call
{
public function toShowArray(event:ResultEvent):void

var i:Number = new Number();

the main thing that is happening here is only the last call will be added to showArray the other calls are disregarded..
I'm using a custom Class and I put it trace(myMC.x);. Sometimes it works just fine, but at other times it says that its a call to a possibly undefined property.

I'm wanting to set an Object property using a variable value. I just can't get it to work as it assumes the variable name is the name of the property: I've simplified the issue rather than posting my whole code.[code]It always applies 'attrName' as the property name rather than the value of 'attrName'.Tried loads of things but just can't get it to work.

How do you write this code so it works and doesn't run the funtion? I want to associate the function with the button so I can load it dynamically with event.currentTarget. Played with storing the funtion in a another variable but wasn't sure how to do that either

I have global variables:
_global.var1Array
_global.var2Array
_global.var3Array
_global.var4Array
and so forth.The issues is I need to call a variable from within the array but depending on an option the user has chosen it needs to call the right one.At the moment I am trying
end = "_global.var"+userOption+"Array["+array#+"]";
userOption being the needed array
array# being the needed entry within the array.
However when I try and use this I of course just get it like a string, not as a variable...
How do i go about this,
Lets say i have a variable _a:Number=5 and _b:String="_a"
I want to call a variable whose name is contained in _b

I'm just getting the hang of AS2 OOP, after avoiding it for all this time, and I have set up my first couple of classes.
One class generates an array, and the other class takes this array, and uses it it to place MC's on the screen, and gives each mc an onEnterFrame function. I have a stack of these onEnterFrame functions, named 'avoidIt1()-avoidIt11()'[code]...
I want to create a variable that I can call in a path. For instance:
Code:
var myVar = "varHome";
Then, to use in code:

Can you do that? This way obviously doesn't work (because I've tried it). Is it possible at all?

I thought this would be simple, but it hasn't been.

I want them to become visible when I call this function.

But it is not working.

How can get a var from outside to a Timer Class?
I'm trying to pass a variable through a function, but I'm getting it's value 0. Here's my code:
thumbLoader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goToCategory);
function goToCategory(e:MouseEvent) {
trace(c);[code]....
this trace gives me value of 0. Normally I would do goToCategory(c) and inside that category I would get it's value, but in this case I'm calling this function with an event, how can that be done?
var c is declared globally, so I'm using it above this code in different place... is there smth like global $c like in PHP.. or there's some other way to do it?!
