What is the quickest algorithm in AS3 to search a long list like this for a match, and what datatype should I use? (ie array, object, Dictionary etc)
I have a POJO which declares a collection of List<Long>.
We're currently sending an ArrayCollection of Number, and it's arriving at the client as an ArrayCollection, populated with IntegersGiven the issues with Type Erasure & generics I understand how this is happening. How do I fix it?
Unfortunately because of some internal limitations, the model cannot be changed. Ie - we can't use a subtype, and we can't implement IExternalizable.Are there other options for registering custom type converters in LCDS, other than IExternalizable? Alternatively, are there any annotations we can use that indicate the type to be used for a collection?
IŽam trying to create my own custom list component in a Flex mobile Project which fires an Event when the user touches a listitem and holds the finger down for a given time.Some kind of "longTouch"-Event like its implemented on native android listitems to edit the entry for example.
I tried to listen for the MOUSE_DOWN Event to start a timer and dispatch an event when the timer finished. But this approach failed because i cant get the listitem that was pressed by the user because the List component updates the "selectedItem"-property only after the user lifts his finger from the list.
I'am making a advanced mp3 player arund this tutorial: [URL] and i want the users of the player to see how long they have listen or how long time back of the song. i have the AS i what to use but i cant connect them. becuase the tutorial i used does not make a sound objekt (MUSIC)

I'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?

What I am attempting and failing to do after much trial and error is to have a random ingredient from the ingredientList array pushed into the previewIngredients array making sure the new value going in is not already in the preview ingredients array. If the same value is there I want it to keep choosing an ingredient from the list array until it finds a value thats not in the preview array then push that one in there. It feels like I'm getting close but obviously I'm either going about it the wrong way or just missing a little somthing somthing out.
say I have an xmllist like this (but with many other attributes not shown for brevity):
<node metal="white gold"/>
<node metal="yellow gold"/>
<node metal="silver"/>

View 3 RepliesMy designer provides me lots of MovieClips containing buttons and its states and most of them contain a TLF TextField. Now I do not want to check each MovieClip where a TLF TextField is used. Can I know exactly in which MovieClips and buttons a TLF TextFields has been used so that I can convert them to a classic TextField, or any method to convert all TLF TextFields to classic automatically by the compiler itself? I tried deleting the TLF library from publish settings: it starts giving me an error, but still not pointing me to where TLF TextFields are being used.
View 1 RepliesHow can I make a bunch of variables from a for loop. for example for (var i=0; i<total; i++) {var bunch(i);}. that i make a bunch of variables named bunch1, bunch2, bunch3. I keep getting errors. I program and use so many different languages that I dont know if that can be done with AS3. my only other alternative i can think of is to create some sort of event dispatcher object array. but I dont know how to get them all to send events to one listener with there index number.
View 5 RepliesI have a list of strings that I add to an array, then attempt to set those values in a for-loop using data that I read in. The array gets updated, but the values the array contains do not. I also have an array of buttons that I update this same way that works great, but strings don't seem to work the same way. I have tried moving the string array to give it full scope, and still nothing...

I have an embedded xml file which I'd like to have a property like this:
<level missions="[m1,m2,m3,m4,m5]"/>
I'd like to know how can I convert the string value [m1,m2,...] into an array, in order to get its value by index (a[0] == "m1", a[1] == "m2", etc.)
I tried Array(xml.levels.level.@missions)[0], but to no avail :)

first off, for those who don't know, a normal array is a set of data contained in a variable, created like so:
var myArr:Array = new Array("data1","data2","data3");
[code]...
(because it starts counting from 0, not one) A multidimensional array is just an array of arrays.created like so:
var myArr:Array = new Array(new Array(1,2,3),new Array(4,5,6));
and called like so:
myArr[0][1]
which gives:
2

I have a set of 24 movieclips, which I'd like put into a multidimensional array containing 8 arrays, each containing 3 movieclips.
Code: Select allfunction addArrayDimensions() {//takes the clips array on root, and makes it an 8x3 multidimensional
for (i=0; i<_root.clips.length/3; i++) {//while i<8...
//assign the first three items of clips[] to a new array, and put it at the end of clips[]
[code]...
Right now, it's taking the clips array (which we'll pretend contains this data: [1,2,3,4,5,6.....])and then runs through the function, and then returns it exactly as it was before. (1,2,3,4,5,6....)How can I take an array, and make it into a multidimensional array?
There is a bird, and you control its upwards movement with a key. It has thrust, gravity, it works fine. The problem is I have a bunch of icicles that come at the bird that he is supposed to avoid. I tried this first with math random to use as an x coordinate and than move across the screen, but the icicles had the same x-coordinates sometimes. I tried does not equal(!=) but that doesn't work. I made an array and each number that came out of the array I assigned a different variable. This works fine. I put this variable into the x-coordinate such as mc.x=((n)*60)+480. I did this for five different icicles. All their differnt variables have a different value, and I put them into the same function for each individual video clip, but they still don't go to the right coordinate. Here is the test code just for the initial coordinate of each icicle before it moves...////////////////////////////Quote:
var temp:Array = new Array()
for (var i:int=0;i<8;i++) {

I have a PHP socket server that serves an AS3 client. Currently the server is working correctly and clients are able to message each other. The issue is that I need to send an array of all the players from the PHP client list to the newly connected flash client. Below is the code that receives the socket data. When the user first connects the socket sends a string list of all the clients. I need to have access to the raw array form without workarounds.
[Code]....
The issue is that although the above does send the user something, it appears to be just a string that says "Array". I have tried xml[0] to see if I can access the array, trace statements and .length with no luck. Is there any way to pull the PHP array out of the XML socket?
I have some variables created on the main timeline and a mc called options which will be where those variables can be manipulated. A way I've tried to this is by creating a first array(array1) and populating it will all the variable names found on the main timeline, and another array(array2) containing the values of the variables the user has changed(which are displayed on some dynamic text fields). To make these changes, an "apply" button is pressed which will set the values found in array2 to the variables in array1.[code]How would you do this so that var1, var2... are updated properly according to the values found in array2?And because array2 contains strings(read from dynamic textfields), how do you deal with that since var1 and var2 are numbers?

I'm used to using list variables/objects a lot from the Flash player in AS2, to make sure objects have really been removed, onEnterFrames have really been deleted etc, or even to make sure arrays are correctly populated etc, just for general debugging purposes.Now when clicking list objects or variables in AS3, I just get Level 0, and that's it.How do I see a list of all objects/variables in AS3?
