Actionscript 3 :: Isn't It Redundant To Declare The Data Type Of An Event Object In A Listener Function's Parameters?

Oct 3, 2011

When you click on the button something happens. However it seems redundant to me that in the declaration of myListenerFunction, the event object e of class MouseEvent, actually has to have its data type MouseEvent mentioned.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Parameters From A Cue Point To Listener Function?

Dec 18, 2008

I have an FLVPlayback component with several ActionScript cue points designated along its timeline. I've written a listener that successfully executes a function whenever the video reaches one of my cue points. However, I'd like it to do different things depending on which of the cue points it has reached.

Here is my code:

Code:
// these are the cue points that I'm adding to my video
_root.thevid.addASCuePoint(33, "show1");
_root.thevid.addASCuePoint(43, "hide1");

[Code]....

Essentially, I would like for the function to accept a String name from the cue point, and then decide which action to take (either showing or hiding something). I don't know the correct syntax for accepting information from the cue point. Should I pass the cue point into the function as an object, then parse its name from within the function?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Click Event Model - Make A Function And Add It As An Event Listener?

Feb 27, 2007

I'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing An Event Listener From A Function?

Mar 15, 2010

I am working on a game for my university project and I have run into a bit of trouble. I have the following code here:

function launchBall() {
this.stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN ,launchBallHandler);
function launchBallHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (e.keyCode==32) {

[Code].....

Its set up so that when a ball goes off screen, it resets to a coordinate and launchBall is called.

LaunchBall then adds the event listener to see when the Space key is pressed and that starts the ball moving again. The problem I have now is I cant seem to get rid of that eventListener. I have tried removeEventListener and that doesn't seem to work. I have tried:

if (ball.xVel>0 && ball.yVel>0) {
removeEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,launchB allHandler);

just below that code and that doesn't work either. It's not spitting any errors out at me but I am completely stumped.

Listener Not Calling Function For Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE?

Jan 10, 2011

I just started a course that does a little flash. To teach us they have us build a brick breaker game. I have come to a part were I have to remove all the Listener that were created for the game. Each level is a movie clip and when the level is over the level instance is removed from the child. From what I understand when the level is removed the Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE becomes true and the function attached should be called however it is not. Here is the code of the function that sets the listener and the function to be called:

Arrays :: Error: 1199: Type Parameters With A Non-parameterized Type

Seems like in AS3, I can in theory, delare arrays that can only contain certain data types:

private var my_array:Array.<String>;

however
private var my_vector:Vector.<String>;

is just fine. Is there a way of making this work with an Array?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Error 1199: Type Parameters With A Non-parameterized Type

The compiler keeps yelling at my first line "package aRenberg.utils", and I don't see anything wrong with it.

what this error even means? I'll upload the code if needed, and I'm using a heavy amount of ASDoc if it makes any difference.

EDIT: I might have isolated it. If I comment out "import flash.utils.Dictionary;" the error goes away, and it moves on to other errors, however, one of the errors is "1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Dictionary."

This is a simplified version of the original code. The above function generates an error because j is undefined in the function. I am wanting to get the variable j when the button is pressed.
