ActionScript :: Xml - Setting Object Properties From Other Object Properties?
Jun 25, 2010i'm attempting to cast an object's property as an actual property of another object. here's my object variable: var propObj:Object = {prop:"width", width:50}; now i want to assign the property of a sprite using that object's properties. var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); sp.(propObj.prop as Sprite.property) = propObj.width; now, i'm not even going to try that because i know the compiler will explode all up in my face. but you should be able to see what i'm trying to do. why i'm trying to do it is because i'm reading in an XML file with an undetermined list of usable properties for specific objects. so instead of writing something like a huge switch statement to evaluate whether the XML file has a value for that specific property, i'm trying to assign properties dynamically based on what's available in the XML file. if what i'm trying to do is possible, what's the best way to do it?

View 7 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Trace The Properties Of An Object's Properties?
Jan 30, 2008I forgot to put it in the title so I'll just place it here; I am using AS 2.0. I know that there are other ways to accomplish the goal that am after, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to access the properties of an object's properties?
Here is the code that I thought of, even though it doesn't work
var a:Object = new Object();
a.bproperty = 0; //lowerlevel properties
a.cproperty = 1; // lowerlevel properties
[Code].....
This really just boils down to how I am organizing the code(I have ideas on what do next, and i am 99% sure that I can get them to work), and if there is a way to dynamically access the properties of the objects properties, It will save me from creating yet another large block of code for my project.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Retrieving Object Properties From Object Array?
Nov 11, 2007I'm basically loading an XML file to assign instances of a movie clip a distinct value, which it uses to modify its height. So, I'm looping through the xml and instantiating my class Object each time (Rect) and then placing that Object into an array:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if(loaded){
var boxArray:Array;
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code]....
the trace here always comes up undefined. "listPosition" in this bit is an Rect parameter, defined in the previous bit of code as "i", so I can keep track of the order of the stack.I've found one or two examples of putting objects into an array and getting them back out, but it doesn't seem to work with this, maybe because I'm using a class. I don't know.Could this be an area where I need to use the array access brackets, like around the movie clip the object is loaded into. I've tried everything I can think of -- referencing back to the movieclip, adding extra objectRef type parameters... nothing has worked yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Your Own Properties For An Object?
Sep 11, 2008Back in the day (AS2), I used to create what I called an"ivar" property that collected the index of a series of buttonsthat were clickable (see attached code). Imagine 10 buttons on thestage with names (selectButton0, selectButton1, ...selectButton9).The code under the //----------BUTTONS header would make a propertyof the button that was clicked, call it "ivar" and then send it upto a function that would use it as an index to then load theappropriate content with MovieClipLoader (remember that Class?).I have tried something similar in AS3 without any luck sincethe whole button thing is now steered by events. Does anybody knowan elegant solution that would achieve a similar result. That is,click a button called "selectButton0" and have returned the zero asan index variable that could be used further?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Sending The Object Properties?
Feb 23, 2009I'm working on a project that has to pass variables to (and later read them from) a URL encoded text file.
Code:
getURL("process.cgi", "", "POST");
This has worked until now, dumping all of _level0's variables into the document, retrieving the relevant ones on load.I've recently made some modifications so that I'm no longer storing all the variables in _level0, but some of them as custom properties of objects, e.g.:
Code:
t1c1r1.customproperty = 6;
t1c2r1.customproperty = 5;
In these cases, the properties are not being passed to the process.cgi, and not getting recorded in the text file.
I suppose I could flatten the variables out, record them on _level0,
Code:
t1c1r1_customproperty = 6;
but I'm wondering if there's a way to send these variables as is.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Changing Object Properties With Code?
Apr 21, 2011For the first stage, I was able to build a walk-through demo in flash pro by creating buttons that when clicked caused the flash to change to different frames. easy enough. Now for the final part of this project, I need to make the interface fully interactive, as I was trying before. ie: you can click any button and lights go on and off or a loop counter increments, etc. Since there is logic involved and too many permutations to do a frame for each possible state, I'm back to trying to do this in an object oriented way. I've got some test code here.

debugger has some errors, so i don't know what exactly it will do. the errors are at the last two if statements where i'm trying to change the object property setting of the label. there is another error at the last curly bracket.
the idea is that there are two labels and a button. the first label starts out visible. when the button is clicked, a counter is checked, and incremented, then the counter is again checked and the appropriate label has it's visible property set to true. the intent is that in a list of several labels, pressing the button scrolls down them, until you press while on the last, which resets the counter and the first label becomes the visible one.

I've experimented with two ways so far; 1.) The enemy changes to a frame of a block when he dies (illusion of a different object but the same object with a different frame on the timeline) using the same size properies but I can't seem to the change the collision properies from it's prior setting of causing damage and re-bound/bounce to the player. 2.) The enemy is removed completely from the game and a new block object is added in the same position where enemy died but I can't share/code the same size properies to this new block object making obvious that is a different object.

ActionScript 3 :: Accessing Properties Via String In Object
May 1, 2011I have an engine I created a while back that loads objects into a container based on XML data. A really quick example of the XML would be like this:
<level>
<object cname="enemies.Robot">
<pos x="200" y="400" layer="mobiles" />
</object><object cname="Player">
<pos x="12" y="89" layer="mobiles" />
</object></level>
I have a class Environment that has a method loadLevel(data:XML) which I parse the XML through, then the function runs through the XML finding all object nodes and uses getDefinitionByName to determine which Object I want to create based on object.@cname. From here, I have to manually define each property based on the XML like so:
obj.x = xml.pos.@x;
obj.y = xml.pos.@y;
etc.
I was wondering if there's an inbuilt method for setting a property based on a String. By this I mean something like so:
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.someInbuiltFunctionThatSetsAProperty("alpha", 0.5);
This way I could change my XML to be more like so:
<object cname="Player">
<props>
<x>200</x>
<y>221</y>
<alpha>7834</alpha>
<health>Something</health>
<power>3</power>
</props></object>
And iterate through all the children of props to set all of my properties on the fly. I know if I create an Object and set properties within it like so:
var obj:Object = {
var1: "hello",
var2: "there",
name: "marty"
};
That you can then iterate through names/values using the for(String in Object) loop like this:
var i:String;
for(i in obj){
trace(i + ": " + obj[i]);
}
/**
* Output:
* var1: hello
* var2: there
* name: marty
*/
Surely there's a way, as here's an example of identifying a property using a String:
var ar:Array = [new MovieClip(), new MovieClip()];
ar.sortOn("alpha", Array.ASCENDING);
So just to make my question more to-the-point: I want to be able to get and set properties that I can identify using a String.
