ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Static Class?

Jun 28, 2010

Hi there, i am hoping for some advice on structure/optimisation from some of you experts . I am working on a portfolio system that is modular, each module works in a self contained way and does not require the other modules to function, though they can be 'linked' by having them all reference the same PortfolioData() class.

im happy with how it is working, but i feel there could be a better way to share the datasource between all classes rather than duplicating it and storing a copy in each class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Static Class Needs A Non-static Function

Nov 22, 2009

Alright, so I have a class that is linked (via the linkage panel) to a scrollbox class. I'll paste the class here:[code]Ignoring the formatting, the commented out functions are the ones causing the issue. Adobe says that it's a static class and I can't use non-static functions. The way I wanted to use it was:

1. Call the page button generating function above.

2. In the main code in my program is this line:scrollbox.setClickFunction(historyContent.generate Page);So when the buttons that are supposed to be generated are clicked, the scrollbox class can call the History pages generatePage function and pass it which page to show. (I did this because there was a lot of text and a limit on how much would display, so small chunks sounded logical).

3. In the onClick function (which I haven't finished yet because the rest wont work), when you click one of the buttons it calls the set function. Its that simple.

Actionscript 3 :: Big Performance Difference Between Using Class With Static Functions Vs Instantiated Class?

Mar 22, 2012

I'm wondering if anyone has experience with if there is a big difference in performance in ActionScript 3 between keeping a class with only public static functions, and utilizing those functions often (as in a frame event at 30fps), and in turning the class into a "normal" class of which I instead make an instance and call the functions via the instance instead.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing A Class's Static Functions From A Variable Of Type Class?

Feb 19, 2010

I realize this is kind of an odd issue, but I am wondering if there's any way to get Flash to allow me to access a class's static functions using a class variable that points to the class. Example:I create a class called FooClass that has a static function named fooI then create a variable of type Class that points to it

Code:
var class:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("FooClass"));
However, when I try to call foo() using the variable, it errors saying the function

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Static Class?

Jul 14, 2009

I am trying to create a class out of some code senocular wrote on another forum. The code controls the changing of a display object from one color to another. It's called InterpolateColor.I have managed to create a class out of the original code but I am trying to make the class static so that I don't have to create an instance of it in my controller class... I just want to access it by importing it at the top and then saying something like ActionScript Code:InterpolateColor.interpolate( _myMC, 0xFFFFFF );The problem, I keep getting errors when I try and change the class initialize line to ActionScript Code:static public class InterpolateColorWhat have I done wrong in my translation to a class that is preventing me from accessing this in a static way Here's the whole class:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stage Reference In Static Class?

Feb 17, 2009

I have a static utility class that must have a reference to the stage, and I'm not sure what is the best option for me to get the stage inside my class...

I've thought of these options:Pass in as a parameter of the function Have a static variable I can set to the stage I don't like either of these because they are ugly.

What methods can you suggest for me to get a reference to the stage in my static class?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Static Class Constants Be Too Slow ?

Feb 23, 2011

I am working on a Flash site template for which I am implementing the possibility for the users to change the theme dynamically while the site is opened.Basically, the site will have a few themes available and when the user selects a new theme, all of the site objects will change their properties (colors, alpha, fonts, etc) to fit the new theme.

And my questions is what is the best approach to sending the theme information to all of the objects in the site.I was thinking of making a static class called "Theme" and when the objects need a property, they will call a static getter of the Theme class that will return the appropriate property value for the object.But, from my understanding, static properties are quite slow and seeing that I may need quite a lot of them, maybe more that 100 for the whole site, will this approach be too slow ?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Static Class To Change TextField?

Jan 19, 2012

I'm trying to make a static class that will change the text written in a TextField inside a SWF file.

Certainly that I'm forgetting something obvious, I get the correct trace messages, but the textfield disappears. The initial text is "Start" and I want to change that to "OK". For now I just want to change the text, but after I want to be able to change the text format.
 
So far I have this:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dispatching Event From A Static Class

May 17, 2008

I have a class name ImageLoader that is used to load image and the dispatch a complete event when the image is loaded. This class is implementing singleton design pattern which means that only one instance is created always for this class.

Everything is working fine it is loading the image but in the initListener function i am dispacthing a complete event to let the other class Content (which passes the image name to this class ) that the image is loaded and you can access it now.

BUt the problem is the event is never dispatched or may be it is but I am not catching it properly here is code for my ImageLoader class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dispatching Events From Static Class?

Aug 3, 2010

However, it seems to me as I've started building this (or trying, rather) that there's no way this can be done, but I'm sure I'm wrong. Since the static class is never added as an instance to the display list, the stage (or any object for that matter) will never hear any events it dispatches.I've searched and found this, but that doesn't seem to be the right solution since I'm listening for my custom LinkEvent event from the stage, and *not* in the class calling the dispatch function in the static dispatcher class.And to reiterate, the goal is to have a single class I can use throughout my application that dispatches my custom LinkEvent event with two properties: linkURL, and linkTarget.The whole reason for wanting to do this is so I can have some control over what happens (to track, or do some other behavior) when someone clicks on a link created within an htmlText TextField with an <a>

ActionScript 3.0 :: Are All Functions Included From A Static Class

To rephrase my question: if you have a class with a bunch of static methods and you use one of them in your code, does the whole class get compiled with your movie? I suspect that it would be and, if that's the case, wouldn't it be better (from a file-size perspective) to use packaged functions instead?
