Limit To Number Of Times Assign EventListeners?
Sep 6, 2010
I've got a presentation that continually reads an XML and displays content based on that. It works fine for 2-3 hours then just stops. No errors, just stops.
What I'm doing is adding and removing eventListeners throughout the process using two alternative loader objects.
For example:
PHP Code:
slideLoader1.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loadJPG, false, 0, true );
I started using the "weak" listener based on what I've been reading about garbage collection, but actually this works better:
PHP Code:
slideLoader1.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loadJPG);
The presentation runs much longer with the second listener type. In both cases I'm removing it this way:
PHP Code:
slideLoader1.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loadJPG);
Is there a problem constantly adding/removing eventListeners this way?

Create a 12x9 grid;Populate the cells with random numbers ranging from 1-9;Assign a symbol (custom graphic) to each cell depending upon which random number is generated in it;Limit the amount of times each number in the random range is used to 12.My question is simply this: how do I, using AS3, create a random number function that will only use each number in its range a maximum of 12 times (it is important to note that my grid consists of 108 cells using the numbers 1-9 exactly 12 times each)? So for example, if the random number function populates 12 cells with the number "4," it will then exclude that number from its remaining iterations.I am adhering to OOP standards so including script in actual timeline frames is not desirable.

I'm fairly new to AS3. What I'm trying to is create a multiframe SWF (main.swf) that loads several external SWFs (ext.swf) on each frame. I've got that to work. My problem is that I'm trying to assign actions to buttons/MovieClips in the external swfs that navigate to different frames in my main.swf. I want to avoid hard coding the buttons because there are about 30 external SWFs and they don't all have the same number of buttons within them. The approach I took was creating two arrays in each ext.swf, one to hold the button instances and the other to hold the frame destination labels.
Code:
var buttons:Array = [link1, link2, link3, link4, link9, link10, link20, link21];
var links:Array = ["c1", "c2", "c3", "c4", "c1", "d1", "d2", "e1"];
Then in the main.swf, I created a function that loads the ext.swf and runs a "for" loop that assigns EventListeners to the contents of the "buttons" array to go to the frame labels defined in the "links" array.
[Code] .......
The "for" loop in the "assignLink" processes and traces the "links" array just fine, but it always assigns the last array item to every button.

I am creating a site with lots of big scrollable text-boxes in it. Each text-box object contained some text, and two buttons to scroll up/down with. The scroll buttons each had an event listener so the text moved when you clicked them.
These text-boxes were stacked on-top of each other with all except one having an alpha of 0. If I wanted to change which text-box is active I move it to the front and call a small TweenLite animation.
To the left (outside of the text-box objects) I have an object similar to a menu. It also has about 12 or so event-listeners (one for every button). This turns out cause A LOT of lag an it's very troublesome for my laptop to run it. What I need help with doing is to reduce the number of event-listeners on the stage and also the amount of text-boxes.
What I was thinking was to add the text-boxes using AS so I only have 1 on the stage at a time but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I also thought it might be better to just use 1 big event-listeners and from mouseX and mouseY decide which button the user is trying to push.

Is it possible to define a property to limit the number of elements which will appear in a mx:List ? I've read about setting the property rowCount, but I don't see any effect.Can a filter be applied to accomplish this? My intention was to avoid removing the items from the list/array collection, but simply "hide" them. Can this be done?

i have a main .swf that automatically loads a second .swf on its last frame (via loadMovie.) it loads this second .swf to level 0 (replacing itself).
when the second .swf reaches it's own last frame it loads the main .swf into it, beginning the whole process again. here's the thing...
i only want this to happen 3 times. in other words, the third time that the second .swf is loaded into the main .swf. i want the whole thing to stop-freeze-on the last frame of the second .swf.

assign a number value to an mc. So I'm done my early work on it and am ready to try and integrate this function. I'm making a small change game. So game is split into five scenes, each scene the person will receive a receipt. The person will have change in their hand (all canadian denominations). They have to look at the receipt and the change in their hand (both mcs), and figure out if its correct. If not they drag change from another pile and place it in the hand. So here's what I'm looking at trying to accomplish. I'd like to have a check change button (simple mc). I'm guessing that each coin needs a numeric value associated with it (no clue on if or how you could do this). If the numbers add up to the predetermined bill value (so I'm guessing I'd give that a numeric value as well), i hit the check button and it'll see if the change in the hand adds up to match what the bill should. So here's where my code sits currently, still tweaking as we speak. I'm still new so be gentle on my code I know its long.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;

I wanted to know if there is any limit on the number of live streams that a client can connect to?For example, there are four live streams s1, s2, s3, s4 being published to FMS, can a flash client subscribe to all the four streams at the same time?If yes, what is the maximum number of streams that a client can subscribe to and what are the trade-offs?

I have 5 Cairngorm Events that I am dispatching at the same time(one right after the other) - all of which call a separate HTTP Service. This works fine when I run the application locally however when I deploy my project to a Glassfish server, it only works intermittently, with the app hanging when it doesn't work.
My temporary work around to this is to chain some of the events together so less call are going out at once, but I don't really like this as a viable solution because it slows down performance.
Is there a maximum number of HTTPService requests that Flex can make at once before it hangs?

I'm talking about the div(X,Y) function in C which returns the number of times X is reduced by Y. if you're confused, I'm talking about this:
div(30,5) returns 6 (30 is reduced 6 times by 5)
div(34,7) returns 4 (you can reduce 30 by 7 four times, leaving 6 behind)
Is there such a function?

I'm new at actionscript, so I'm making simple button games, but I have 2 questions: Question 1: Displaying number of times the button is clicked I searched the forum, and what I found was.
[Code]...
for example, if I clicked the button 100 times, a text "ABC" would appear, and if the button is clicked 200 times, a text "DEF" would appear in the same text field. I only have a rough idea on how to do this, so before I fail completely, can anyone just give me the code instead
