ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass Parameters Through Eventlisteners?
Jun 11, 2010
Inside a .fla file I have some buttons and each button will tween a different image to the stage. All the images are outside the stage in the same x and y position and I just need to tween the x coordinate.
Now I'm working with an external document class where I'm trying to hold all my functions and I'm stucked with the Tweens. I'm willing to stay away from the flash tween engine and I'm trying to work with tweenLite.
Is it possible to pass parameters through eventListeners so I can use something like this inside my docClass?
public function animeThis (e:MouseEvent, mc:MovieClip, ep:int):void { //ep stands for endPoint.
TweenLite.to(mc, 2, {x:ep});
}
If this is possible, how am I supposed to write the listeners so it will pass the event to be listened for AND those parameters? And how to build the function so it will receive those parameters and the event?

i have one movie clip named one_mc.And i have one function named thisFunction.to add an event listener, i would code:
one_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_SOMETHING , thisfunction);
1) I want to show a box containing some text when the mouse is OVER it. Of course, when its not over, the box should not appear
2) I want to give parameters to thisFunction in order to use it, the way i prefer!
I must make one eventlistener for MOUSE_OVER and another for MOUSE_OUT? How do I pass parameters for the function when i call it?

I have a mc (changeColorMc) and three movieclips. The three movieclips are created on the fly (so there could be more movieclips) and filled with a color from an Array. This works fine.
Now I want to add an eventlistener for each movieclip, so when someone push one of the movieclips the movieclip with the name "changeColorMc" gets that same color from the colorArray.
My question is: How can I pass the color value from the colorArray to the buttonPressed function? Is this possible?
I was also thinking that I had to create three buttonPressed functions ie. buttonPressed1, buttonPressed2 and buttonPressed3 and attach these to the created movieclips.. but how? Because I don't know up front how many movieclips there will be..

want to make a sfw that receives parameters from the html tag. for example, when you embed youtube videos, in the <object> thingy you set the video you want to show. i want to do exactly the same, have a 'projector' (though not exactly videos), the swf knows what to do from the html tag params, and displays the right content. how do i red html params from the sfw (and how do i test it?).
also, is there any doumentation/examples on how to connect php/mysql to a flash movie?

I am trying to load a swf file in a browser and pass url parameters to the flash movie. How do I access the url parameters in the flash movie in actionscript?[url]...
I did find pointers on passing parameters through embed/object tags, but nothing on passing url parameters (and accessing them) just through a browser url.

I've created a very simple video player that I want to use with many different FLV files on my site. Rather than packaging SWF files with each FLV, I'd like to just design one SWF file and have the corresponding HTML file pass the URL of the FLV as a parameter to the SWF. I've read a lot about passing in parameters from HTML to SWF using AS3, and it seems pretty straightforward. Here's an example of the code I created using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0:
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaderComplete);
function loaderComplete(evt:Event):void {
//traceText.text = "Loaded";
[Code]....
Note that I'm using the variable "userName" to pass the parameter. Eventually I'd use a variable like "movieURL" to convey the actual URL of the FLV file. In any case, when I run the code, I get ... nothing! Nothing but a blank text box. Both the HTML and SWF files are on my local machine.
If I uncomment the "//traceText.text = Loaded" line, the text box says "Loaded", which would indicate that the event listener is functioning properly.

I am trying to use FlashVars to pass a parameter that will determine which graphic to load into my movie. The test actionscript code uses a dynamic text field called dText and is coded as follows (testing the FlashVars by passing them to a dynamic text field):
function loaderComplete(myEvent:Event){
var flashVars=this.loaderInfo.parameters;
dText.text=flashVars.userName; }
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderComplete);
In my html code I am adding:
<PARAM NAME=FlashVars VALUE="userName=SamG" />
FlashVars="userName=SamG" // added to the embed tag

I have 2 skins, almost identical, but differ in 1 small way that can be accounted for if I could pass a Boolean to the skin while assigning it to the host component (a button).
<s:Button skinClass="MyBtnSkin" />
Is there a way while assigning the skin to the button, I could also pass a parameter to the skin somehow?

I tried to find an answer here, but haven't.i am loading an AS2 swf inside an AS3 swf.the AS2 file needs some initial properties to get started (used to pass them through the flashVars).in Flex i used the SWFLoader.load() method and passed in the parameters through the url. (url..).since the flex swf output is heavy i would like to use the flash Loader class.is there a way to pass the parameters with the Loader class?or should i use LocalConnection methods to start the process externally?

How can I pass parameters by reference? So it doesn't make a copy out of it, but modifies whatever I pass in? This:
function ChangeString(string:String)
{
string = "inside string";[code].....
outputs "outside string", since functions seem to take objects by value. get multiple variables out of functions? Returning a custom class?

Is there any way to shorten this code by passing parameters to the eventhandler through the addeventlistener? For example, this is the code:

Basically, just pass the params to the handler through the listener... I hope there is, this is getting tedious...

I have made a piece of flash that runs on an xml document and now I need to pass a flash variable (via the html swfobject) to the flash to dictate this xml location. The variable is successfully passed if I embed the main swf straight into the swfobject.The problem is I am using a preloader swf to load the main swf onto the page and I can't seem to work out how to pass the variable (from swfobject) from the preloader to the main swf.

My project has a target object (center of stage) and a moveable object, which is created each time a user presses "Enter". Each movable object is identified as part of an array (i.e., object[i]), and a new line (i.e., line[i]) is dynamically drawn from the center of the newly created object to the center target object.
Basically, as the object is dragged around the screen the line is to stay connected to the target object. Therefore, that specific line for that object being moved must be redrawn using a drawLine function inside the event handler. My issue is how to get line[i] to be identified within the even handler? (Using AS3 coding)

Flex3 + Cairngorm. I have my service in Servicis.mxml:
<mx:HTTPService id="docIndex" url="{URL_PREFIX}/jobs/{???}/docs" resultFormat="e4x"/>
And I call it from my generic restful delegate like this:
public function index(params:Object):void {
var call:AsyncToken = services.getHTTPService(resourceName+"Index").send(params);
call.addResponder(responder);
}
I want to know how I can use the params Object I pass inside the url definition (the ??? above).
EDIT: I'll explain myself if you didn't understand my problem: I have a restful api written in rails to which I'm connecting. Doc is a child resource of Job. If I want to get all docs I have to supply a job_id too. Therefore in the service the url must be changed for each .send() call, with the proper job_id (the ??? part above). I'd like to call it like myDelegate.index({job_id:34}) and insert that job_id field in the Service URL.

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;
}
