IDE :: Putting An Object Into An Array?
Apr 1, 2009
Wrong section, moved to actionscript 3 I'm having trouble with my code. I keep getting this error
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Test_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
I believe it has something to do with the array, considering it works when I remove the array stuff. What i'm trying to do is to be able to move objects through an array with my gravitate() function in the Grav Class.
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onLoop, false, 0, true);
for(var i:uint=0; i < numParticles; i++){
var p:Grav = new Grav(5, 0xff0000, Math.random()*250, Math.random()*250);
addChild(p);

I came up with this code to see if it was possible to put an Array of Objects in a Sprite Object which would act as a container for the array. I found out that it is possible, but now I'm wondering if this is the best way to go about doing something like this.
ActionScript Code:
/*
Creating a container object that will
hold 3 Gear Objects.

I worked again on a new Project and stumbled while trying Arrays. I have two cubes(cube_mc, cube2_mc) in my scene.
My code:
var gy:Number = 0;
var gravity:Number = .2
var moving:Array = new Array(cube_mc, cube2_mc);
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, gravityFUNC);
function gravityFUNC(event:Event):void{
gy+=gravity;
moving.y+=gy;
};
I was trying to put both cubes into the array, and then affecting the whole Array with gravity. When I test it nothing happens, and it shows no errors.

I need to create a function with takes a text field and does two things with it.The first is to split text up into individual letters with each being a separate symbol. Basically the equivalent to breaking apart the text field, then converting each letter to symbols, then giving each letter its own unique name This is the way I'm doing it now and its very time consuming and not at all easy to update to text.The second part is to create an array containing all the instant names.For example if the text was "hello world", the function would create symbols with called n1 (containing h) , n2 (containing e) , n3 (containing l), n4 (containing l), n5 (containing o), and then the array would be [n1,n2,n3,n4,n5]

I have a video object that dynamically changes. I want to put that inside of a movieclip that is always 320,240 no matter what the video object size is. I want the video object to increase or decrease but I always want to display it at 320,240. How would I write this? I tried:
ActionScript Code:
videoDisplay = new Sprite();
videoDisplay.graphics.beginFill(0xCCFF00,100);
videoDisplay.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 320, 240);
[Code].....
But the video object still is large (my video object is 480,360 in this case). It seems like it is not nested inside of the the videoDisplay sprite which should only be 320,240.

Im trying to optimise my code a bit so i dont have ten lines of identical code on each button. Actionscript is not my strong point. Currently on each of the menu buttons there is this code:
// sets the vertical position of all scrollbars (name0) inside their content movieclips //(name) to _y = 0
on (release) {
setProperty("work1.carni.carni0", _y, "0");
setProperty("work1.dead.dead0", _y, "0");
[code]....
what i'd like to do is some kind of function like this, which does all the work in a frame on the main timeline. For example:
on each button:
// tells every "name0" mc to set _y to 0 within their respective content movieclips
on (release) {
vertical = (_y = 0);
verticalHold(vertical);
}
on the main timeline something like this:
// Get the command from the buttons and run the function and set all "name0" _y to 0
function verticalHold(vertical) {
setProperty(allName0Clips(vertical));
}
i've played around with this function for loading external swfs, but i have no idea how to make it set multiple _y positions. what about putting all the mc names into an array (called "allName0Clips") and doing it that way?

I've been putting data into an array via XML, and then selecting at random an image string to load in a pic at random. But whilst doing this, I wanted to remove the String from the Array that I have just used, so I don't get repetition of the same image in the output. I initially thought that pop would remove the string I had just used - But of course it Removes the last value in the Array instead, which doesn't really help.
Ok - so how about randomizing the data once inside the Array, after it has been pulled in from XML!? That way I can load in the 'last' image, and then pop it out! Keeping a randomized selection of images each time 'it' is loaded

I am curious if this is an okay implementation of the Array.filter() method.
[Code]...
I was not able to figure out an implementation of the callback function for the filter() method, where the callback was outside of the getGallery() function. I wonder if there is a way to get the isGallery function outside of the getGallery scope?

I have been trying for an hour to clone an array, It seems that nobody has a true reference on how to do it. Two arrays - movieClipArray 1 and movieClipArray2 I want to duplicate movieClipArray1 entirely so that when I addChild(movieClipArray2[0]), it doesn't take away from movieClipArray1 or reference it in any way.

I am trying to use the following code to convert an object read in from a ByteArray to an Array and store it:
var data:Object = ba.readObject();
var invObjects:Array = data as Array;
In debugging, I find that 'data' is indeed populated with the correct data and takes up memory and is in an Array friendly format. However, invObjects is NULL. How does merely saying 'data as Array' make the holding variable suddenly null?

I'm basically loading an XML file to assign instances of a movie clip a distinct value, which it uses to modify its height. So, I'm looping through the xml and instantiating my class Object each time (Rect) and then placing that Object into an array:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if(loaded){
var boxArray:Array;
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code]....
the trace here always comes up undefined. "listPosition" in this bit is an Rect parameter, defined in the previous bit of code as "i", so I can keep track of the order of the stack.I've found one or two examples of putting objects into an array and getting them back out, but it doesn't seem to work with this, maybe because I'm using a class. I don't know.Could this be an area where I need to use the array access brackets, like around the movie clip the object is loaded into. I've tried everything I can think of -- referencing back to the movieclip, adding extra objectRef type parameters... nothing has worked yet.

I have an embedded xml file which I'd like to have a property like this:
<level missions="[m1,m2,m3,m4,m5]"/>
I'd like to know how can I convert the string value [m1,m2,...] into an array, in order to get its value by index (a[0] == "m1", a[1] == "m2", etc.)
I tried Array(xml.levels.level.@missions)[0], but to no avail :)

I have a function that checks if 2 objects are touching OB1 and OB2, if they do touch it runs the rest of the collision code where OB1 is the character and OB2 is a tile that the player cannot pass through.
I came across an issue where i wanted sprites to be separate from the hitboxes but my collision code works by checking the height and width of an object (you guys know the drill).
So i have a Tile class with 2 parts to it, a bitmap and a movieClip.
So i have this setup(pseudocode):
Code:
loop
{
function collision (ob1 , ob2[loop].movieclip)
}
This should work right? But it ONLY works for the first object in the loop!

I have a class in which I have declared an array. The functions in that class are designed to make changes to the array, but it's not working:
[Code]...
Anything I do to customerCheck treats it as if it were a new array. This is especially obvious when using customerCheck.push in addCharToCheck() -- the trace always shows a blank array before push and an array with one object in it after the push... then next time it does the same. I know I'm making some sort of fundamental error regarding the scope of the array within the class but I just cannot find any good information on how to fix it! Moving to AS3 (been coding it for all of about 3 weeks) is a nightmare so far, and it seems to be the 'easy' stuff that causes me problems

Actionscript Code:
var gameObjectArray:Array = new Array();var gameTimer:Timer = new Timer(25);gameTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, gameLoop);gameTimer.start();
[code].....
So every 25 milliseconds, a block is being created and it pushed into an array. The for loop cycles through the array and moves the x by 1 for each object in the array. If the x reaches past 300 pixels, then I want to delete the object from the game entirely. The way I'm doing it now yields an error, so what am I doing wrong and what should it look like inside of the "if (i.x > 300)" stuff?

Is it possible to push an object into a specific index in an array. Because I have a set array from 1-10 and each index has a unique purpose so I was wondering if it would be possible to do something like:
array[1].push(object);
If not whats the best way to do this? At the moment I have a seperate array and I just do array[1] = arrayOfObjects.length -1;

This program has a green ball (var ballplayer) that theplayer moves around in 3D space using the numpad keys (8, 2, 6, 4)to move the green ball (up, down, right, left). And it also usesthe up and down arrown keys to move the ball along the z-axis.There are also five red balls moving around the screen. As the redballs collide they turn blue. The red/blue balls are z-sorted, sothat the balls closer to the viewer appear in front. The balls allmove around in an invisible cube that they bounce off. Problem: How do I get the player's green ball to be z-sortedwith the other balls? I think I either need to add the green ballto the array called balls before it is sorted. Or create an arrayfor the green ball and then add the two arrays together (if that'spossible) before z-sorting. I tried to add the green ball directlyto the balls array but it didn't seem to work. I'm new to AS3 andprogramming, so I may have made a simple mistake.

I have an application that takes some database info and shoves it into a datagrid, or chart. I've come across this error of having a single row and trying to use it in an array so I can use it in my app. Its come to my attention that its a pretty common problem that people face, but I don't seem to be able to get around it no matter what a try. My actionscript has a fucntion that trots of to the database via ASP, and returns the data in the event - as below (obv i've removed some stuff - load of calls are made to the mssqlQuery function - only the one I have trauma with is below)
