I know there is one, but it's not easy to implement the way I want. I would like to know the steps to interpret the lisp language and what functions are essential to be implemented.
View 5 RepliesSo i'm building a plugin system for my game, and i need to know actively what objects each plugin wants to use. For this, i have made a simple String interpreter. What it can do so far is separate id's and get whether a required input uses all of that kind.
my input format is like this:
Code:
IA:[param];IA[param];NN
IA is the index of all objects matching the parameter to the right of it. A is replaced by A if you want all those objects with the ID of param, or a number for a specific index.:[] tells the interpreter that what is inside the ['s is the param.the param is the string identifier that it looks for when finding objects.NN is the end sequence. this tells the engine that it doesn't need any more params.so say i had a plugin that uses the string
Code:
I2[player];IA[world];NN
the engine will loop through all objects with the ID "world" using them as the second param for the plugin's behavior, and the first will always be the 2nd "player" in the list.I can currently detect whether it wants all of a certain parameter, and what the parameter is. Now, i need to be able to find the index each param requires if it is not all. And i've tried multiple ways of doing this, but none so far have worked. What method would i use? Also, if you see anything that would kill performance in the interpreter, i would love to know, as this is called every frame.
My current code is a class with static methods called StringInterpreter, with the below code:
Code:
package Utils
{
public class ScriptInterpreter
{

Would it be difficult to create a python interpreter inside actionscript 3? Would it be impossible, or extremely slow?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a Visual Novel engine script interpreter. What it does is, it reads simple instructions from a source like: "DISPLAY_TEXT: Hello world", "SHOW_IMG: scene.png".
I figured:
while(read_next_instruction())
{
handle_instruction(instruction);
}
This looks fine so far. If next instruction is DISPLAY_TEXT, handle_instruction() will display the given text on the screen, and then the while loop will keep on reading. The problem is, some instructions will have to wait for the user to click on screen so it can jump to next instruction, but how can I do this, if the while loop won't wait for the user to click on the screen?

I found a script I want to use, but it's written in AS2 and I'm authoring in AS3. So I grabbed the *.fla file and tried to ctr+shift+F12 to edit publish settings and change the language to AS3. But it's not available in the drop-down.
View 1 RepliesI haven't programmed in a while, and have kind of lost interest, but I want to get back, and I've enjoyed C# the most, a lot more than objective-c and visual basic. So I want to make some games that me and my friends will be able to play next school year. So basically something you can play on the web.
What programming languages deploy to the web?If c# is possible, and a mac with safari/firefox would be able to use it (I can't install plugins, and I don't want to get in trouble for making myself admin again)Flash, Java, etc. If java does, I'd like that most since it's most like c#. Then what libraries/engines would I use? I want to do 2d. And then what IDE would I use?
Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere else on stackoverflow (I could not find it), or if it is not a "programming" question (more like a discussion). Is it good to avoid using an IDE (Flash Builder, Visual Studio...) while first learning a new framework or language?

it doesn't display the necessary language, English only. after the encoding has been changed, it also doesn't work.probably the font should be changed into a standard one, but i don't know where to do it
View 1 RepliesWe're designing an app that will run on Windows, OSX, iOS, and Androids. It would be really nice to at least have most of the code in a single language rather than having to use Objective C for the Apple versions, C# or C++ for Windows, and Java for Android.We were looking at Flex (with all of its problems) as a way to avoid having to use a different language for each version, but Adobe has thrown in the towel and in the long run that's not going to do the job. Java used to promise to be universal, but it looks like Apple no longer supports it as a part of the distributed OS, and as far as I can tell Microsoft never supported it. We don't want our users to have to download and install something just so they can use our app.Is there a solution? Or are we stuck with building the app in multiple languages?

View 1 RepliesI'm using Flash CS3 with Actionscript 3, and I need to have a scripting language that the user can use. If they could type in their own actionscript and have it evaluated, that would be perfect. Another scripting language such as Lua would be fine too. I looked into lua alchemy, but it seems poorly supported so I'd rather not use that. The Eval command from actionscript 2 isn't available in as3, and some of the things I've heard indicate that it's functionality is pretty limited, although I've never used it before.

Is there a compiled PDF version of it somewhere? Or is there perhaps some PDF export button I'm missing? I prefer browsing big docs like that in book form--and to have it accessible offline and outside a browser.

View 1 RepliesWhat method or process do I use to set an iOS app to only one language?I recently had an iPad app written in Flash CS5.5 approved at the iTunes app store. I noticed at the iTunes store, it indicates that my app is localized in 14 different languages. I never set this up; it seems that there is a process that automatically adds several default language localizations to the ipa binary when the file is published. I tried the strings panel, used a var to set the localID, went into the SDK for flex and flash builder and deleted the locales (could not find anything similar for Flash itself), but none of this seems to prevent Flash from adding the language defaults. I have found many examples on how to localize my app for several languages, but nothing on how to set it to only one.

If you wanted to distribute a program to as many OS as much as possible what's the best language to use? I'm considering user's convenience here. For example, they don't need to download java run time, flash or .net framework if they don't have it. Also once they download it, they don't need to compile it themselves.
I'm also considering developer's convenience, in that on one compile, the program compiles different version of OS for you and you don't need to install different os to compile it. Here are the features of the program I'm thinking: Stores text and image to database Uses keywords Can browse information in the webserver via xml Can share(upload and download) information from the web server via xml Can compile and edit related articles via keywords It's something like a blog with advance features and can exist on and offline
I use a TextInput component of Flex 4.5 to enter some text in English. I use the restrict attribute to ... restrict the keyboard input to characters a-zA-Z only. The problem is that if i copy/paste a word in another language, i can then paste it into the TextInput component. Is there a way to avoid that? If no, how can i validate the input against a specified language?I found out that the unicode set of Chinese+ language symbols is u4E00 to u9FFF. So i write the following:
var chRE:RegExp = new RegExp("[u4E00-u9FFF]", "g");
if (inputTI.text.match(chRE)) {
trace("chinese");[code].........
when using Socket class to make connection with server, how actionscript transform data to server with different language implementation? The server may implement in .NET, ruby, or java, the following is the code example:
[Code]...
when I use java implements the server side, why and how actionscript "know" the way to communicate with java(what if using .NET implements the serverside), does it mean actionscript "clever enough to know the server side language?". what if write customer object to socket(and how), and server responds to actionscript. Could anyone explain the mechanism or recommend some material about these topic?

View 3 RepliesI have created a actionscript with Capabilities function It works good, but I want to ad a If else statement on the capabilities for language.I'm running in English so the capabilities shows " EN ", but I want the if else statement to change " EN " to = English, and if we are running in different language it would say " Other language"
This is what i have at the moment.
var versionString = Capabilities.language;
var label2:TextField = createCustomTextField(0, 60, 200, 20);
label2.text = "language: " + Capabilities.language;
how to use the if and else statement ?
this is the URL of the language reference website I have been using for Flash/AIR: [URL]Is this URL the correct one I should be using when I need to look up a class or method or property or something like that? Because it does not match up with what actually shows up in the Flash IDE when I type an import statement. Most of the packages match up but not all.
For instance, the reference URL has a fl.events package, and so do I locally, but my package seems to be missing lots of classes from it that the reference URL shows. This leads me to believe I don't have the latest SDK's or SWC's or whatever I need installed, whether they be Flash, Flex, Air, etc.Also, I have a few packages locally that don't show up in the reference URL. Things like "flash.debugger" and "flash.trace", they are not my custom classes, not sure where they came from.
Lastly, there are certain AIR classes missing, and I'm sure this is because I don't have the latest AIR SDK installed. I did find it and download it, just not sure how to download it.
1) Is the above URL the one I should be using? If not, is there a better definitive location for Flash/AIR language reference that is updated and always has the latest and greatest info?
2) I have the latest AIR sdk on my desktop, how do I install it? (I'm using Flash CS5 on Mac OSX 10.6)
3) How can I make sure that what I see in that reference URL is what shows up in my code hinting when I type import statements in the Actions Panel? Basically I just want to make sure I am all up to date so everything is showing and working the way it should be. For instance, I am missing a ton of fl classes (containers, controls, core, data, etc.) I want to get these in place so my local copies are synchronized as close as possible with the reference. Documentation doesn't help much when you don't have the tools it tells you to use...
4) Take the fl.ik package for instance. Locally, I have available all the classes in the reference URL that I should, plus a bunch more that aren't there.
