Actionscript 3.0 :: Flash Trace Statement Evaluation?
May 2, 2011
Flash is returning decimal floating point formats in evaluation results under the IEEE 754-1985 format.I looked it up and this seems to be how ActionScript 3 was designed to follow that standard which creates these results.This doesn't happen in the ActionScript 2 compiler. It only happens under ActionScript 3, paste these trace statements and compile so you can see what I mean:
Code: Select alltrace(48.48 + 0.01) // returns 48.489999999999995
trace(18.48 + 0.01) // returns 18.490000000000002
this one is ok: Code: Select alltrace(18.49 + 0.01) //returns 18.5
I need a two decimal place precision result as this is for an algorithm that I'm trying to use to round up or down by a penny so I can't simply convert it to an integer but there's no pattern that I can see so I can predict results for it either.I can't have a $18.8999999999995.

Is there a statement in AS3 that will return current class and/or scope? I'd like to use that in trace statements so that I know the exact location of a trace.

When I run this code, I get to click on either the container "Big Box" or its contents "Poly". The associated trace states should fire but look at the tracer on "Poly" it fires twice. Why? [code]

i suspect the answer here is "no", but i'm wondering if it's possible to set the color of trace statements which appear in flex's console pane. ie, i have a few "levels" of log statements, and i'd like the warnings and errors to really stand out.

Trying to get a MovieClipLoader to work for me... This code is taken pretty much right from Macromedia's Help file. I get no error messages (yay), but I also get no trace statement (boo) or loaded clip (boo2). There *is* a clip named audioplayer.swf in the same directory as my file.

I am new to actionscript and just like some of you, I would like to start off on the right foot. After several attempts to solve this problem I am now taking a break and reaching out to those in the community. I have created a .as file named Main.as and the code inside main.as is:[code]then i created a new fla file and named it testas. I then typed Main in the Document class under properties.The code has no errors and when I attempt to test the movie, there is no output to the output panel.

I am making a jigzaw and when all the pieces are put in the right place, another movie clip will be played.All pieces are buttons placed in different movieclips. The movieclips are then placed in scene 1.
In frame 1, I've written
_global.var1=0;
In frame 2, I've put movieclip1, and in movieclip1 I've placed button1, with the following actionscript:
on (press) {
startDrag ("_root.movieclip1");
}[code]..........
However, when the piece is in the right place, and the if-statement has been activated, _global.var1 is still 0 when I trace it in frame2.

Is there any function in flash that allows for 'in-line evaluation'?
For example, in php I can type
eval ( 'php statement here' );
and php will execute 'php statement here' as if I typed it as a command. I'm trying to execute dynamic code is the problem.

Simply put, is there short circuit evaluation in flash. If not, is there a way to do something like it and still retain the elegance of short circuit evaluation?

I'm making the transition from AS2 to AS3 and have some rollover and rollout code below. I'm looking to place an if statement into the onClipOver function that can trace what specific button is being pressed. In AS2 I would use the "this" command to see which movieclip was being used. how to properly write the IF statements using AS3 in the code below.

var btn:Button;
if(btn != null && btn.label != '') {
mx.controls.Alert.show("d");
}
In the above if clause, is it guaranteed that the first condition(btn != null) will be evaluated before the second condition?

We have developed a web application. (Eclipse - Dynamic Web Project). We are deploying it as .war file. We want to implement evaluation period license check on this .war file. (Most of the functionalities are Java SOAP Web services and Web UI is in Flex). I have written a Java code for generating the license file and thread for checking the remaining days. (Checking is continuous as the application is supposed to run for days). What is the best way to implement this functionality on the web application using the generated license file?

Is there a light weight expression evaluator for as3. It should take in a string as a input
something like "5 < 2" and evaluate it to a Boolean say true or false. Of course I gave a simple example but the expression could be complex too. "(3 < 5) && (2 > 5 )"

I am having issues with a global array. I have an actionscript file called MyGlobal.as at the same level as my main FLA:

I am able to trace that first element while trace is called within the function... but if I try to trace that first element outside of the function it is "undefined". Do I need to return the array at the end of the function? I tried that but I cant seem to get it working correctly.

I've been playing with prototype a bit and I've noticed that either it isn't as static as it should be or that some functions are protected from altering, or that in some cases the prototype actually extends a function. For example, I was trying to modifiy the global trace function to output the current time of a trace action, something like this :
Code:trace("lulu"); // output 12:48:17.286 lulu I DID achieve something close to it, but it seems that I haven't actually modified the global trace function, but rather it's "_root" counterpart,

take a look at the results of these traces:
trace(imgGal); //traces "1"
trace(itemClip1._y); //traces "32"
trace(itemClip[imgGal]._y); //traces "undefined"
why does the last trace not trace "32" like the second trace? I want to insert the variable "imgGal" onto the end of the mc "itemClip", how can I do this?

I can't quite figure out the small problem with the code. It seems to just bypass the first requirement of the if statement when I do type in the proper input and go straight to the else statement.

I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.

The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
Heres the code:
Code:
runCode_btn.onPress = function() {
data_xml = new XML();
data_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
data_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
[code]....
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.
