Actionscript 3 :: Delete A Value From An Object-based Associative Array In Flex 3?
Jul 20, 2009
I need to remove the value associated with a property in a Flex 3 associative array; is this possible?
For example, suppose I created this array like so:
var myArray:Object = new Object();
myArray[someXML.@attribute] = "foo";
Later, I need to do something like this:
delete myArray[someXML.@attribute];
However, I get this error message at runtime:
Error #1119: Delete operator is not supported with operand of type XMLList.
How do I perform this operation?

In actionscript 2 I was able to make indexed associative arrays. Ex:
var arr:Object = new Object();
arr[0] = {var1:"one", var2:"two"}
arr[1] = {var1:"a", var2:"b"}
In actionscript 3 I cant seem to do this.I get the error below.TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

While developing with Adobe Flex, I'm working on my first application - and use pretty much actionscript.
In my mxml application, I include as3 file via <mx:Script source="as/myas3file.as></mx:Script>.
In myas3file.as, I include (thru include "variables.as";) file variables.as, which contains following code:
var timer:Object = new Object();
timer.t = 60;
or (in other test case)
var timer:Object = {t:60, j:"80"};
timer.t = 80;
Neither case works! Even if I rewrite example code from official documentation, it throws an 1020 error.

In the below code, "sector" is an indexed array.fsector1, fsector2,fsector3 are Associative arrays.The "gotoAndStop" command doesnt work properly.The last trace command, "curTerr" returns the same value as "curSec",leading me to assume i did not define "curTerr" properly.
Actionscript Code:
function loadmaptest(){� sector = ["fsector1","fsector2","fsector3"]� fsector1 = new Array();� fsector1["terrain"] = "grass";� fsector2 = new Array();�

How to make a kind of array that index things based on a object? but not being strict like dictionary.
What I mean:
var a:Object = {a:3};
var b:Object = {a:3};
var dict:Dictionary = new Dictionary();
dict[a] = 'value for a';
// now I want to get the value for the last assignment
var value = dict[b];
// value doesn't exits :s
How to make something like that. To not be to heavy as a lot of data will be flowing there. I have an idea to use the toString() method but I would have to make custom classes.. I would like something fast..

I'm going to be building a site for a photographer and would like to be able to do something like the thumbnail navigation in this example: [URL] I'm assuming it's adding the thumbnails to the Display Object via an array based on an external XML file, and displaying them once their corresponding full-size images are loaded ... Perhaps it's building the nav simply by looking to see how many photos there are in a folder on the server (i.e. no discreet XML added for each shot). Not sure if this idea is even possible -- would like to hear from any of you if in fact it is.

I am writing to ask if there is anyone on the list tried to find out the index of elements of an associative array.
[Code]....
See, these are all part of regions array, which I believe is an associative one by the way I constructed it. I tried to use indexOf to find out the index of the individual elements, but don't seem to have too much luck.
ActionScript Code:
for (var s:String in regions)� trace("
" + indexOf(s));
Right now, this does not bring me a thing. Have I done something wrong here?

I have been following tutorials but they don't seem to cover exactly what I'm doing.I have an associative array of values called definitionsArray which I use as references to instantiate classes in a run time shared library.I instantiate and push the object into a new array. The problem is when I try to access or do anything basically with that new array.As they are objects they don't seem to like being in a display list for example.
ActionScript Code:
var definitionsArray:Array;
var bubblesArray:Array;

I have loaded XML into flash and everything is great. I have an Associative Array that makes a dynamic menu and everything is great.
What I would like to do is combine the two and have my loaded XML fill up the Array and the dynamic menu.
Here is the XML portion:
Actionscript Code:
//Importsimport flash.net.URLLoader;import flash.net.URLRequest;import flash.events.Event;//Create XMl variablevar teamsXML:XML;//Create URL Loadervar xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();//Tell the URLLoader named XMlLoader to listen for the xml //file to finish loading, then run the function

in many programming languages there is this great idiom that lets you use a hash to count occurrences of items. Eg in Perl, suppose you have a list of students and you want to see how many of each name you have (2 Bobs, 1 Jeremy, 22 Aidans etc):
my %uniqueNames;
for (@studentNames){ $uniqueNames{$_}++; }
# print it out[code]....
So you can do this in ActionScript 3 of course, using the Object.The problem is NaN. If you try to autocreate and autoincrement a key at the same time, you get NaN, and the whole thing breaks down.Sure, you can use a conditional to test whether the key exists, and then autoincrement it, or set it to one if not, but that's ugly.
studentNames[name] = studentNames[name] ? studentNames[name] + 1 : 1; // shudder

How do I push an entry into an associative array?
ActionScript Code:
var lijst:Object = new Object({fname:'John', lname:'Carpenter'});
lijst.push({mname:'Frank'});
[code]...
This doesn't work. The first name and last name work because they are created when the object was created, but the pushed middle name remains undefined.I understand that associative arrays are in fact objects. I tried turning it into a real array so the Push command would work cause it's part of the Array Class.
ActionScript Code:
var lijst:Array = new Array({fname:'John', lname:'Carpenter'});
lijst.push({mname:'Frank'});
[code]....
Though this works, it only works when using a '1'. When in fact I want to keep it inside the '0' entry.So how do I really add an entry into an assciative array? So that in above example instead of each having two elements one is added resulting in three elements per entry?

I have a multidimentional array already made, brought in from a CSV file via csvlib.I also have the headers in an array and I would like a way to assign this array as the keys for the arrays.here's a simplification. have a data array like so
data[0] -> [0] blue, [1] 1984, [2] wednesday
[1] -> [0] green, [1] 1926, [2] friday
and a simple array of keys/properties (header array) like so:
[0] colour, [1] year, [2] weekday
I'd like to insert the keys to make
data[0] -> [colour] blue, [year] 1984, [weekday] wednesday
[1] -> [colour] green, [year] 1926, [weekday] friday
i've read up into associative arrays a bit and am not getting how to do this. (there's 38 properties so remember which is which is going to be quite inconvenient).I sort of thought csvlib would do this automatically but it appears the headers just exist completely independently.
