ActionScript 3.0 :: Return Const Reference To An Object?
Oct 30, 2010
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.

However, I expect that currentFig would contain a reference to a Figure object created in AddFig method, but it's not. What am I doing wrong? Why does an object exist only within a method?

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):

So, I have encountered a very bizarre scenario involving const declarations. I'm curious if anyone else has seen this as well. Note that this only happens when the game in question is loaded as an external swf.Here's my runtime error:

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?

I'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 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 have a CSV reader class that parses a CSV file.....
1,11.15126526
2,11.28306635
3,10.78296071
4,10.79878325
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?

I need to get a pointer to a piece of XML. I can get a pointer to the parent node and everything works but trying to get a pointer to a node that has no children just returns the value of that node.[code]...
Tracing subNode would be just the value and there is no pointer to the original xml object, so editing the subNode var would only change its value, not the one in the original XML object.
How do I get a pointer to the subNode so it can be edited to change the original xml object?
