Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4 Disptaching Custom Event From Custom Component (why Flex Converting Custom Event To Mouseevent)?
Mar 2, 2012This is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));
Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent
The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.
This is my custome event

{
import flash.events.Event;

View 3 RepliesFlash CS5 :: Cannot Handle Custom-built Components
Dec 10, 2010A few days ago I decided I wanted to make my own drag&drop flash components, with inspectable properties. Since the documentation for flash components is so limited, I followed the workflow of some blogs I found around the web (mostly about CS3 components). In the end I managed to create a component that has a Live View, that gets a visual update whenever you change the properties (width, height, color..) ....in CS4 !
The problem in CS5 is that when I drag my component on the stage, the timeline of this movieclip starts playing in a loop. As you may or may not know, Components have 1 "Avatar" frame, and 1 "Assets" frame. So this looks kinda weird when that timeline plays.
There is always the possibility that I made a mistake, but when I download the source files from the blog post on the page http://active.tutsplus.com/tutorials/actionscript/creating-flash-compo nents-for-distribution/comment-page-1/#comment-33865
the same thing happens.
When I then save my CS5 FLA as a CS4 FLA and try to use the downloaded component and my own, both of them work fine in CS4. So I think this might be a bug in CS5.? Which is pretty bad because I wanted to use these components in iphone development using the CS5 packager...I read somewhere that we actually use the UIComponent because it has no timeline, so I don't see how it's possible that it plays.
I uploaded my source files to [URL]

View 6 RepliesFlex :: Event Flows For Built-in Event And Custom Event
Aug 22, 2011I hava a custom component and it contains a child icon. If I add a mouse-click event listener to both component(click-listener1) and icon(click-listener2), the event dispatched sequence is click-listener2, then click-listener1. I can understand it. But if I add a custom event to component (listener1), and mouse-click event to icon(listener2), when icon is clicked, the component will dispatch the custom event. In my test, the event dispatched sequence is listener1, then listener2. It doesn't match with event-bubbles rule.
In my opinion The custom event is dispatched in listener2, which triggers listener1. Why event flow sequence is not listener2, listener1?
In component.
icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, iconClickHandler);
private function iconClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4.5 Not Listening To Custom Event Dispatched In Custom Class?
Nov 4, 2011I have the following situation:I have an event handler, that displays small messages in my application's statusbar.These messages get passes through by dispatching events from custom components.A simple message could be like "HTTP Error" or so.Now, the main event listener, in the main application file, listens to the event dispatched by any custom component,but seems to refuse listening to events dispatched by custom AS classes.Here is my code for the custom event:
package main.events
{
import flash.events.Event;[code]..
So to sum it all up:
- The event listener listens to the custom event dispatched by any custom component.
- The event listener does not listen to the custom event duspatched by an AS class.
Those who wonder, the event really gets dispatched, that's why I added a trace call.

ActionScript 3.0 :: What Happens When Event Dispatches Quicker As Eventhandler Can Handle It
Feb 13, 2010You got an eventlistener for an object that can dispatches events in intervals of 0.2ms.And if the eventhandler would need 0.5ms for his operation, what would happen? (listener and handler are in the same class).Would the last event overwrite the event before? In my case, I get some data from a xmlSocket, and I thought, that some datastrings can come in quicker than to work it off in my handler.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create Event Class That Can Handle The Target Property?
Jan 30, 2009I'm not sure if it's possible, but can you override a variable of a parent class like you can override a function? I'm trying to create my own event class that can handle the target property. I have a custom imageLoader class, but when it dispatches it's loading complete event:
ActionScript Code: dispatch(new Event("load_complete")); and a listener picks it up, e.target = null where I would like e.target to equal the imageLoader instance that has finished loading.
Does anyone have an answer or a better way to accomplish what I am aiming for?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Propagation - Single Event Handler To Handle The Double Click

Actionscript 3 :: Handle An Event In A File That Was Dispatched From A Mobile Spark Component
Jan 11, 2012I have an mxml file called HomeView.mxml in a mobile app built using Flash Builder 4.6. In that HomeView.mxml I have an HSlider, which is dispatching events when the thumb is moved. What I'm trying to do is to listen for that valueCommit event in an .as file elsewhere in the project.
Whenever the thumb moves, an event is dispatched in HomeView.mxml:
hSlider.dispatchEvent(new FlexEvent("valueCommit", true));
I can handle that event in HomeView.mxm, but not in an .as class called view.as
In view.as I import the FlexEvent and I then have, in addedToStageHandler:
stage.addEventListener(FlexEvent.VALUE_COMMIT, commitHandler);
Then there's a simple Handler:
private function commitHandler(e:FlexEvent):void
{
trace("committed!");
}
But this code never runs. I do have a handler in the HomeView.mxml file which handles the event, but for other reasons I need to handle it in view.as as well.

View 2 RepliesFlex :: Propagating Event From A Built-in Component To A Custom Event?
Jan 27, 2012I am trying to understand event propagation in Flex framework and have a following doubt on it:
Scenario: I have a built-in component DropDownList on change of which I want to create a custom event refreshPreview and want to propagate it to a custom component PictureComponent.
In the custom component's mxml, I have added the Metadata directive as follows to register a refreshPreview event with the compiler
<fx:Metadata>
[Event(name="refreshPreview", type="flash.events.Event")]
</fx:Metadata>
Layout Details: In my main mxml application I have laid out DropDownList and the custom component such that both are siblings (i.e. have a common indirect parent)
e.g.
<s:Group id="contentGroup">
<s:Group id="formGroup">
<s:Form x="11"
[Code]....
I am seeing that the refreshPreview event is not getting propagated to the custom component.
I doubt this is because the built-in component is a sibling of the target (where the event got generated) and not a parent. how to make refreshPreview event propagate to custom component?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Event Without Extending Event?
Sep 19, 2009I'm using a Static EventDispatcher for all event handling in my application, and one of the issues with it is that the Static EventDispatcher becomes the target and currentTarget of the custom Event. Usually, I just pass the event to the custom event which it will carry as its own property. I usually call it "scope". So, instead of using "evt.target" or "evt.currentTarget" in the event handler, I use "evt.scope.target" or "evt.scope.currentTarget" instead. This works fine.
The issue is that I want to simplify this with custom events by overriding the target and currentTarget methods so that they return scope.target/scope.currentTarget. At run time, I get an error saying that I cannot convert Event to whatever I named the custom event. So, I tried not extending Event, and that produced an error stating that the class function is expecting exactly 0 parameters. I just want to make it so that people using Static EventDispatcher handling events as they normally would.
So, the question is there a way to override target and currentTarget while extending the Event class, or is there a way to create a custom event without extending Event?
