Actionscript 3 :: Get Composed MovieClip's Containing (parent) Class After Event?
Aug 13, 2011
I have a MovieClip that is composed in a parent (non-display object) class. We register an event listener against that movieclip - a CLICK handler for example.
With event.target I can get a reference to the MovieClip from within the event handler. But how can I pull a reference to its composing class?
I could simply add a "parentClass" property on the dynamic MovieClip class, but I'm wondering if there's a more elegant/idiomatic way of doing it that I should consider?

I have a class called "download" and an URLStream object inside it called "urlStream".
From outside the class, I am adding a progress listener like this[code]...
Everything works fine inside the onFileProgress function and bytesLoaded, bytesTotal are read correctly.
What I need is a way to point to the download class from inside the onFileProgress function so that I can retrieve some other public variables defined in the "download" class.[code]...

I just recently been using a lot of prototype javascript stuff, and was wondering there was anything like the "bind" method, for use in AS3. It's proved quite useful to be able to look both at the event.target as well as the class object the handler function might be associated with.

I have an AS3 movieclip with a button. Both the movieclip and button needs a click event but when I click the button it also fires the parent movieclip's event handler.

I have created event listeners for a particular movieclip.Insidet this movieclip there is so many objects.When ever I click on the parent movieclip the event listener calls the function for the child object. I had tried removeEventLIstener()
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var info:MovieClip=new MovieClip();
info.graphics.beginFill(0x000000,0.35);

What I describe here is not correct. My full code had some other things in it that was the reason I couln't see mc2. The code described under is actually working!
I have custom class (MyContainer) that extends Sprite. Then:
Code:
var mycon:MyContainer = new MyContainer();
var mc1:Sprite = new Ball(); // Ball is a sprite in my library
var mc2:Sprite = new Ball();
[Code]....
it works, but I dont want that, as MyContainer has custom variables and functions I use. A simple: if (mycon is DisplayObjectContainer) evaluates to true.

I am trying to access a function that is on my document class for my AS3 project, from a nested class. That is, the Document Class calls Class A which then calls Class B. So I am trying to access a function from Class B, I am trying to use MovieClip(parent).function(); but I am getting error 1120. The MovieClip(parent) (fixed to reflect my document class, etc) works when I try it from other classes but not from this nested class.

I've struggled with this for a long time and have thrown in the towel. How the heck do you climb the ladder, then go back down again into another clip?

I have these buttons in a movie clip and I would like to have only one event listener for the parent, using event.target to point to the children. I have also tried event.currentTarget, and it didn't work.here is the code that works:
test01.abtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.bbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.cbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);[code]....
It is only targeting the movie clip, not the buttons inside the movie clip.

I think this is a pretty simply problem but I do not seem to be able to pull it off. Basically I have a parent class A, and a child class B.Class A instantiates class B with addChild.There is a shared object which is being updated from a java server (red5) that has an event listener attached to it in class A.I have a function in class A which will pass certain, specific updates from this shared object to class B.The problem occurs is that when class B is instantiated, the event listener from class A doesn't work anymore. I have not removed the event listener from A.?

getting hold of a reference to the object that loader might be created in So in the below example I am creating a new loader in a movieclip called "item" When the "complete" event fires, is there away for me to reference "item" through the event.I thought this might be e.currenTarget.parent or somthing...But that doesnt work.
Code:
item.imageLoader.load(new URLRequest("C:/KATY.jpg"));
item.imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, IMGaddeditemLoadDone);
item.imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, IMGaddedimgerror);
