ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass A Parameter To The Constructor Function
Mar 3, 2011
I´d like to know how could use the Timer class extended.I´m trying to pass a parameter to the constructor function, so I can use it inside the listener.
Here´s example:
[CODE]
package { import flash.utils.Timer import flash.display.DisplayObject public class ChangeColorTimer extends Timer { public static const CHANGE_COLOR:String = "changeColor"; public var obj:DisplayObject public function ChangeColorTimer(delay:Number, repeatCount:int, obj:DisplayObject ) { super(delay, repeatCount) this.obj = obj } } }
[/CODE]
That was the ChangeColorTimer that extends Timer.Now, I´d want to know how would I use ChangeColorTimer.I thought it was the same as using Timer.I´ve tried this:
[CODE]
public function changeColor(mc:MovieClip):void { var colorTransform:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform() colorTransform.color = 0xEE0000 mc.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform var changeColorTimer:ChangeColorTimer = new ChangeColorTimer(400, 1, mc) changeColorTimer.addEventListener(ChangeColorTimer.CHANGE_COLOR, setNormalColorListener) changeColorTimer.start() } private function setNormalColorListener(e:Event):void{ trace("called") }
[/CODE]
I called changeColor, but, I don´t get "called" in the output from the setNormalColorListener listener.

super();
var rectangleIndex:uint = this.getChildIndex(playerBackground)

I'm having some trouble passing parameters with a function that is itself being passed as a parameter.In my application code I'm instancing that class five times:they are buttons in a menu.In that class, I've got an onRelease handler that does a number of things when a button is released, one of which is to invoke a function that is defined in the application level of the code.My problem is that I don't know how to send the function parameters.In my StandardButton class I have:
class StandardButton extends MovieClip
{
/* define properties */[code]..........
The function is successfully being "sent" to the StandardButton class, but without any parameters.How can I send parameters to the class instance with the way I've got this architected.

I'm just looking for clarification on the passing of a parameter and why/how it works.
In this example, it looks like you create a parameter to be passed in called 'evt', but I don't see it used anywhere in the function. [code]...

Forgive me for this stupid noob question but I want to call a function (loadList) that originally gets triggered after a mouseevent from another function (addToXML) that does not have an event.
The loadList function takes info from a XML var, sticks it into an array which then gets loaded into a tile list and that is working fine.
The addToXML function when called adds elements to the XML var after which I want to call the first function with the event parameter so it refreshes the items in the tile list.
I know it can do this by creating a new array and loading that into the tile list in the addToXML function, but it be much simpler to just recall the function.
I have tried things like
Code:
addToXML.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadList);
but all the event constants I have tried give me error messges like "1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Function."

i want to pass by reference so i can use this variable outside the function.
What im doing is creating a global variable such as var cont:int; and then in a eventListener like enter_frame (stage.addEventListener..) calling a function called "mover", this function modifies "cont" value and i just want to print this value modified. The issue is i cant pass the value by reference just by const :S. The function is void, but if i change it to return int, its useless because each time i call the function, the value i want to return its created each time with a new value, beacuse i need to declare it so.. I read i can use a var such as Object but i really dont get it (im used to c++ i have to say)

Inside my function there is an if() statement like this:
if(passedValue < staticValue)
But I need to be able to pass a parameter dictating whether the if expression is like above or is:
if(passedValue > staticValue)
But I cant really pass < or > operator in has a parameter, so I was wondering what is the best way to do this?
Also if the language I am using matters its ActionScript 3.0

In as3, I am adding event listener and then attaching the anonymous function to it:[code]Now this whole piece of code is looped n times. Now, I have n myBoxes and whenever I roll my mouse over the box, it should alert the name. But, what I see is that the last value of count is used by each box. How can I pass parameter or value to the anonymous function? ( as roll over , I believe, expects only one variable)

I'm trying to call a function in frame 1 of my SWF and also pass it a parameter.
I need to do this from elsewhere on the embedding HTML page using JavaScript.
For example call the function flashFunction(foo);
Does this require a listener in Flash that listens for the call, excepts "foo" and then calls the flashFunction and passes "foo" to it?
Can this be called directly without a listener?

I have this class ('Scheduler.as'):
[Code]..
So as you see in your test-run the first two calls work fine, the one that calls a function that takes no parameters and the one that takes one parameter. The problem is when I need to pass more than one parameter! Solving the issue: Well, I know it'd be solved if I could simply retain the ...args as is, and pass it on to the this.m_function.call call. Another way, maybe is to have some sort of a foreach loop which would feed the designated ...args when the time comes, yet again, how would I refer/pass it?

I have a class in my .fla's library called StatBar_object. StatBar_object is an inherited class that extends from a custom class StatBar, while StatBar extends from MovieClip.
However, StatBar's constructor has a parameter (the constructor reads "public function StatBar(target:int)"). Thus, I continually get an output of:
"ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on StatBar_object(). Expected 0, got 1.
at actionscript.stat::StatBox_object()
at actionscript.modes::battle_mode()"
Is there any way to get StatBar_object's constructor to include StatBar's parameter?

I have the Class and the parameters of its contructor as an object. What I need to do is a function that returns an instance of this class, passing this parameters to the constructor.
This is the code:
Some random and unmodifiable class:
public Foo {
public function Foo(a:int, b:String) {
// constructor
}
}
And some function (in some another class):
function bar(params:Object):* {
var baz:Foo = new Foo(params.a, params.b);
return baz;
}
What I need to do is make this function generic, without pass params as parameter to Foo constructor because I can't modify it. Something like:
function bar2(clazz:Class, params:Object):* {
var baz:* = new clazz(/*some magic way to transform params in comma separated parameters*/);
return baz;
}

Now, when I try to create my Example:

I get message, that I'm not passing any variable (Error #1063). Why is that? What is wrong with it?

I'm passing a DisplayObject to a command that will instantiate it. Something like this:
// ViewClass is passed into this method typed as a Class
var view : DisplayObject = new ViewClass() as DisplayObject;
Is there a way to pass arguments to ViewClass() without knowing it's type? I'm assuming the list of parameters passed to any object's constructor is an array, but I'm not certain how to proceed.
I know I can do something like this:
// Assume arguments, an Array of arguments, has also been passed in
var view : DisplayObject = new ViewClass(arguments[0], arguments[1], arguments[2], arguments[3], arguments[4]) as DisplayObject;
But clearly I'd like something more dynamic, like to be able to just pass the arguments Array directly. I suppose all of this, however, goes against any type safe checking

I have a bunch of movieclips( clip A and B for this example) in my library that I want to use the same base class (MyClass.as in my example). I assigned the same base class in each clips property window and then gave each clip a unique class name which doesn't exist so flash says it will create the class automatically.
Now if I create a bunch of A's and B's on the stage via actionscript, how would I send variables to the constructor in MyClass.as without having to creating A.as and B.as to pass the variables along to the base class? if I do: Var newA:MovieClip = new A (argument 1, argument2, etc) It says it expects 0 args since the A & B classes were created automatically by flash.

Is it possible to pass constructor arguments to instance objects which I place on the stage? Are the instantiations of instance objects centralized somewhere as with .NET WinForms so I can just edit the xxx = new CustomRecangle() constructor?
public class CustomRectangle extends MovieClip {
public function CustomRectangle(width:int, height:int) {
this.width = width;
this.height = height;
}

For example, I have the class Bullet, with a constructor: Bullet(start:Point, target:Point)constructor
But, if this Bullet class extends the MovieClip class, how do I pass start and target into it? Right now I am using attachMovie to create instances of the class. (They behave correctly with the static properties set by the constructor, but to be useful it needs arguments.)
