ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass As XMLList, Or Parse And Pass As An Object?
Oct 28, 2009
I'm having to pass data (originally read via an XML file loaded by the parent class) to a child class upon instantiation, and I can't decide which is the better method.I could parse the XML in the parent and throw the data into an Object and pass that object to the child class....or just pass the part it needs as an XMLList and let the child class do the parsing.Seems like a trivial decision, yes, but I'm not sure of longer-term implications.

Trying to pass a variable as well and cant seem to escape to pass it. How can I pass using window.open as such: Trying to pass (pid) all i get back is (pid) and not actual pid.How to on a jscommand?
Code:
something.onRelease = function () {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.someform.php?proj= + (pid)','win','height=200,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }
I can do a standard getUrl("http://www.someform.php?proj=" + (pid), "_blank"); works fine but no control over window properties.

The Context of the Problem.I'm working on a rotator banner in flash. I use an external xml file to pass the banners info (like info-text, link, image-path, priority, etc). Everything is going well so far. I'm loading the xml something like this:
var bannersXML:XML = new XML();
bannersXML.ignoreWhite = true;
bannersXML.load("myBanners.xml");
The Problem itself.Now I need to construct this xml on-the-fly in php and somehow pass it to my flash object. So instead of read the external file I want my flash script receive an xml parameter it can work with.

Right now it's not loading the XML file from the param.

I want to know if anyone has successfully printed something from Flex.
By successful I am talking about some sort of report or document or whatever.
I know its fairly simple to print a component(which is a bit cheap) from Flex by using the printJob() class and passing a component. But I want to pass an object like a list or XML to printJob().

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;
}

I'm new to AS3 and I was making a game of chess. Basically whenever you click a square with a chess piece, I assumed it would be like java, and you'd be able to create an "ActionListener" that would pass a reference to a square that was clicked.
My question is this: How can I access this square object that was clicked in my array?[code]...

I have one movie clip that sits partially over top of another movie clip. The underlying movie clip has a ROLL_OVER effect on it. Is it possible for the mouse to somehow activate the ROLL_OVER only when the mouse cursor moves over a portion of the overlying movieclip when it's over top the underlying movie clip? In other words, the ROLL_OVER event should be triggered by the mouse cursor as through the overlying movie clip wasn't even there, when the mouse rolls over that area.

I have a class (ImageLoader) that extends Sprite container and loads an external image to its instance. When i instantiate an object of this class from another (Main) class i want to have the dimensions (width, height) of the loaded image being known to this (Main) class. It seems that is difficult for me as the dimensions are known after the image compete loaded. But i don't know how to pass this information from completeHandler event handler to the Main class.

I want to pass through configuration arguments to a class. These are all the optional vars that go into configuring the class - and should be able to run in any order.
at the moment i just pass through the optional vars the regular way. Supposing the constuctor was like the following:
private var _reqVar:String;
private var _optVar1:String;
private var _optVar2:String;
[Code].....
assigning the argument to the var of the same key (i know in php to reference a variable name from a key you can use $$key = $value, is there an equivalent in as3?) display an error (using the 'throw' method) for variable names not supported by the class

I am passing some parameters as POST to a Servlet from my Flex WebApplication. I am able to pass and retrieve strings properly. I used new Date().getTime() in my flex code and tried passing the timestamp variable hoping to parse it at the servlet and convertit into a java.util.Date object. But i am getting a NumberFormatException when i try to parse the variable from the string that i got from request.getParameter.

So, there are a wealth of Flex articles online about how to handle a .NET WebMethod that returns a DataSet or DataTable. Here is an example: Handling web service results that contain .NET DataSets or DataTables So, I know how to use result.Tables.<tablename>.Rows and the like. But what I cannot seem to figure out or find online is how to go the other direction - a method to pass objects or tables back to the .NET Webservice from Flex, without stooping to passing XML as a string, or making huge web service methods that have one parameter for each property/column of the object being stored. Surely others, smarter than I, have tackled this issue.
I am using ASP.NET 2.0 Typed DataSets, and it would be really nice if I could just pass one object or array of objects from Flex to the web service, populate my Typed DataTable, and do an Update() through the corresponding typed TableAdapter. My dream would be a [WebMethod] something like one of these:

I have a guide (curve, part of circle) and an object. I want this object to be draggable along the curve.The questions are:1) Is there any easy way like startDrag() function to solve this?2) Any other code? (I guess it should be some Math)I think some relation could be used here. For example, I drag along x, and I get the right y via some sin or cos relation. Or something like that..

In a game me and a friend is creating, the levels are stored in MCs.In the level MCs there are several other MCs that the player should be able to interact with.
This means the objects in the levels need a stage reference.I can place all the objects manually and pass the stage ref in the constructor of the object's class, but this is a pain when the levels are going to be pretty big.
Is it possible to make sure that flash always passes a stage ref to the object even though it's not placed there by code?

i am wanting to know how much I can be sure that users of my website will not be able to pass bogus variables to my Flash movie. Basically I will have some features available to certain users and I realise that for the average user they will not know anything about how to send spoof vars but is it possible for someone to change the variables sent using SWFObject when a page loads and thus be able to use the functionality that I am trying to disable for them.I have a PHP (my_flash_movie.php) page that calls a function from an included globals.php file to determine if the user can see the restricted functionality is_ user_a_subscriber($_SESSION['user_id']); which returns 1 or 0. This 1 or 0 is then passed to Flash which enables or disables certain features. I dont want someone to be able to send a 1 instead of a 0 basically. This isnt a site where security is critical and the functionality that is disabled is not really critical either so wouldnt be too bad if this happened but im just curious about this and wondering if I should think of another way to pass these vars that might be more hidden.
