ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Quick Access To An Object With A String ?

Sep 8, 2011

I'm trying to create a quick access to a object with a String as it's key, so I wrote:

"var map:Object = {};
map["key1"] = object1;
map["key2"] = object2;
..."

Is there any difference about the performance between long key and short key(the length of the String used as a key)? If the key contains many charactors, will it slow down when accessing that object?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Parse Out Url String Using The String Object In Flash?

Jan 13, 2005

I'm creating a CMS(Content Management System) tool so that users can change text and the changes be reflected in a text window in flash . The text that the user enters in the CMS tool will be stored in the database.

In flash I want to parse the string that I get from the database and look for URL strings that start with http "http://www.someurl.com" and parse out that substring.

For example the string could be "Please vist my site at http://www.site.com". I would want to parse out the http://www.site.com

If I find this url string I want to pre-pend the a href tag <a> and append the closing </a> tag to the string so that this link will be clickable from the textfield.

Does flash have an object that deals with Regular Expressions? I've looked at the String object in flash but not sure how to achieve this task

Flex :: Access XML Object In Restlet 2.0 Thats Wrapped Inside A Representation Object?

Jan 7, 2010

I am developing an application with Flex for the GUI and Restlet for the webservices. I have a strange problem. I put my XML as a property on a generic object, and send it as part of a POST request. But in the Restlet webservice, this XML is irretrievable. How do I retrieve it? I tried initialising the received Representation object to a DomRepresentation, but thats not working. If I put the received Representation object into a Form object, then getFirstValue is returning that XML as a string! I noticed that the contentType of the HTTPService was application/www-form-encoded so I set it to application/xml and its not helping either. I use restlet 2.0m6 and here is the code snippet that I use -

Xml :: Flex - Access The Value Of An Attribute Using A String Variable?

Aug 1, 2011

Using e4x in flex:

var attr : String = "foo";
var xml : XML =
<resultSet>
<node foo="1"/>
</resultSet>;

How can I use the variable "attr" to access

xml.node.@foo

I thought I could do it with

xml.node.@[attr]

But this doesn't seem to work. How can I access this attribute by a dynamic value like this?

Both

xml.node.@[attr];

and

xml.node.attribute(attr);

work, as Constantiner suggested.

Updates:

Say I have an XMLList in this form:

var bar:XML =
<resultSet>
<node>value</node>
</resultSet>;

I want to filter the original xml above by matching "foo" attributes with the "value" from node in bar.

Essentially I want a sublist of the original xml such that

xml.node.@foo == bar.value

for each xml row in the original value

As Constantiner mentioned, I can filter the original list by the value in foo, but what if I want to filter on multiple values?

Can I do something like:

xml.node.(bar.node.contains(attribute(foo)) ? attribute(foo) : null);

Or perhaps a cleaner method instead of the null?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Access Clip._alpha Through A String Var

Jan 7, 2011

I was trying to make a menu for a game, (and I succeded, it works fine) when I noticed that if I store a clip name in a string var I can't I acess it's alpha with varName._alpha (?) or some other ways I tried.

Is there anything wrong in my code, or is there a way to do it that isn't the one I'm trying?

The way I'm doing it, I have a MovieClip for each screen, that in turn contains all the MovieClips and Buttons, etc, that each screen must contain. So sometimes I must specify the path to things with "_root.MovieClipName.thatThing._blah". Although I think this has nothing to do with my problem there, since the vars are all declared in the stage's timeline...

If you don't quite understand how the functions work, here's a call swapScreen function example: swapScreen("overlap", "OptionsScreen", "options");

If "swap", it removes the screen I'm in, and attaches another one in place. If "overlap" it overlaps the current screen with an overlaper screen (like opening the Options menu ingame). restoreScreen() restores to the previous screen that has been overlapped.


ActionScript Code:
function swapScreen(swapType:String, ID:String, screen:String):Void
{
if (swapType == "swap")
{

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access String Value Inside Of MovieClip?

Jun 10, 2011

Now one of the functionality that's added to the player is the "Transcript Button", which shows subtitles in a small window.Well, what I've done is added text on keyFrames of the main timeline,so if the audio says "Hello good evening, welcome,....", I've made a new layer above the audio layer and during that particular part of audio I've added the text on the new layer in a keyFrame.I've done this for the entire timeline.I've used enterFrame and accessed this String value and displayed it in the small window.Everything seems to work well.But if a certain movieClip popup is added on the timeLine, which has its own audio.o necessarily I'll have to add the text to this movieClip as well, but I cant access the text, i.e, display it in the small window.Also I've tried using a global variable like this,...
