I want to assign an existing Object all the vars of a prototype Object, without a direct reference. One way to do this is:

This way both Object's values for .nom and .age can be independently changed, but it's tedious. Is there an automated way to assign all of protoObject's vars to enObj?
I'm having some troubles with the use of interface and inheritance in AS3. I've done lots of OOP in the past and what I'm trying to do seems obvious to me, but doesn't work in AS3. The question is : Is it possible to override a function that return an Object of class A, and make it return an Object of Class B which extends A ? It seems not to be possible, since I'm getting a signature error in Flash, when compiling. For example, the following set of class do not compile (the code in function definition doesn't matter):

Is there a way to return the target of a Tween object from within the object?
Code:
myTween.onMotionFinished = function (){
trace (this.target)
}
That's obviously not the way you do it, but that's what I want it to be...
It seems that dropTarget only returns the name of the object that is directly under the mouse. Does anyone know whether there is a simple way for it return the name of the object that is under the entire bounding box of the object being dragged?
View 1 RepliesI've got 3 variables called pSize1 = 15, pSize2 = 16, pSize3 = 17. I have some radio buttons that have the data: 1, 2, 3. depending on what radio button is pressed, I need to trace the data in either pSize1, pSize2, or pSize3.if they user presses the first radio button, it returns data 1, how can I combine that with "pSize" to return 15, and not "pSize1". What i have tried so far:
Code:
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.click = function(eventObj:Object):Void {
thisSize = eventObj.target.selectedRadio.data[code]......

View 4 RepliesAs seen below, I tried to return more then one variable from a function but , I think I have some syntax problem..
function hesapla3(parametre1,parametre2):(Number&&Boolean) // PROBLEM IS HERE, I NEED TWO VARIABLES TO RETURN{var yenideger2:Number=new Number();var bol2:Boolean=new Boolean();yenideger2=parametre1+parametre2;if(yenideger2>80){bol2=false;}return yenideger2;return bol2;trace(yenideger2);trace(bol2);}
First of all sorry im not very familiar with the flash lingo, im still new to all this actionscript stuff
ok so i wrote this on a frame in the timeline[code]...
now i need to check which one from all these has a value of zero. then when it finds it i need it to tell me which one it is (s1x or s2x or s3x) so i can do stuff with it.
I have the maximum possible reduced cod of an xml accessing data:
Code: Select allvar myLoader:URLLoader;
var myURL:URLRequest;

How i could make a CORRECT RETURN of these myLoader.data possible values so i could have "in the end" some EXTERNAL variables:
var myName:String = new String()
myName == .....the result from function "readXML": ....trace(myXML.product.name[2])
or
var myNumber:Number = new Number()
myNumber == .....the result from function "readXML": ....trace(myXML.product.length())
I am using Freddy Thunder's tutorial on how to make a login script with php/mySQL The problem is that the button doesn't do anything when I click it. I can't tell if it goes to the php script, but it sure doesn't return the correct variables like it is supposed to.

I'm using a class that I converted from AS2 to AS3 using Patrick Mineault's converter: [URL]
The original AS2 class:
Code:
/**
* Colour handling routines
* Culled from many places:
* - http://www.actionscript.org/forums/s...d.php3?t=15155

Is the AS2 to AS3 conversion part of the problem (aside from my ignorance of how to use it)?
I'm new to Actionscript programming. I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to return multiple variables, each having a different data type, from a function. For example, if a function needs to return variable aa ( a string) and variable bb (a number).
The function I'm using just crunches a lot of math, and doesn't relate to an object in a GUI. One method I got from a Google search used an Object, but as (I think) this requires me to create a class, I wondered if there was a simpler way. Since an array can hold elements of different data types, perhaps this is a simpler approach (?). [code]...

I'm just getting to grips now with how the Garbage Collector works.
Is there a way (like a function or a custom class available somewhere) to check an object for all its references and return them so that you can see what it's connected to?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a function that determines which of 4 similar classes to create, and returns the new object itself.
Basically, I have a base class (Panel) that has 3 additional variations in layout, each of which has a subclass: TextPanel, FeaturePanel, and LinkPanel. The two parameters for my function are the "kind" of window to create and its name ("linkString"), both of which are provided by external XML. I'm wondering if it's even possible to return the new Panel as an object...?
My code will probably explain this better than I can:
Code:
// create the new Panel variable ("addPanel") with a call to newPanel:
var addPanel = newPanel(linkList[i].attribute("kind"), linkString);
Code:
// newPanel function:
[Code].....
within the Panel constructor, the provided string (linkString / 'h') is set as the Panel's .name. I did not copy that function into the subclasses, since they inherit it - unless I'm mistaken.
I got canvas objects stored in an array. Every canvas has it's name property.Is there a way to return a specific name?Actually I need an index number from that array, where I pass a name property of object inside this array (name is taken from event). Something like this:x = array.indexOf (canvasName=event.currentTarget.name)

I have to implement a menu with icons using actionscript only. I create a data provider from XML and set
menu = Menu.createMenu(null, dataArray, true);
menu.iconFunction = iconFunction;
Till here everything is fine and my menu is presented, but only with labels.
I create iconFunction as following:
private function iconFunction(item:Object):Class
{
var st:Loader = new Loader();
st.load(new URLRequest(item.icon));
return ?;
}
how do I return my loader object as Class?

I'm wondering if it's possible to return a const reference in AS3 in the same way you would in C++? I have a class with a movieclip inside and at the moment I'm returning it like so.[code]This works fine however I noticed this then allows access to the movieclip's attritbutes so then it'd be possible to do something along the lines of myClass.clip.x = 5 which I kind of want to avoid!Is it possible to make returns read only? I know it works for primitives.

I have a CSV reader class that parses a CSV file.....

2,11.28306635
3,10.78296071

The CSV reader class works and produces a Vector.<Point> ... However the container class (which includes an instance of the CSVFile class) needs to access the resultant Vector. Whenever I 'return' the Vector.<Point> to the container via a CSV method it is always empty...I don't know if its something to do with the size of the Vector<> or what?
