I am trying grab all the member variables in AS3, and then foreach one i would like to process it in various ways. I would need the name and then if it is a collection of some type I would like to loop through that collection as well. I am attempting to essentially serialize in a somewhat custom fashion.
View 2 RepliesI have an object of type sprite. I would like to add a new field in the sprite object without deriving the class.I tried to do
object.newField = 'value';
but it's not working.I need it because the Api expect that field in the sprite class.
I have a flash mp3 player that lives in the root on my server, I have members on my site that each have their own folders which have an xml file in them for their uploaded mp3 files, my question is, how do I get as3 to call from the player to the xml file for whichever member page is being viewed, for example, if you were viewing members/profile.php?id=1, the player which is on the profile.php page calls to the playlist.xml file in the id folder '1' I know I can use the xml load function but how would I get the members/$id in there
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to set up a menu. Because this menu can have a varying number of entries, I'm generating it instead of hard-coding it. The Menu object contains an Array of MenuEntry objects, and each MenuEntry has a framework.Button object which contains the text and box that actually gets drawn to the screen. I can add a MouseEvent.Click event to the Button, but not the MenuEntry. If I do it that way, though, I'm unable to access the data in the MenuEntry object that contains the button, so I don't know which MenuEntry was clicked.
The only solution I can think of involves checking the mouse position against the position of each MenuEntry, depending on the number of Menu Entries. This does not seem like the right way to do it, though, as it is not scalable. I tried having the MenuEntry class extend the Button class, so theoretically, the MenuEntry itself could dispatch mouse click events, but that didn't work.
How to populate a flex datagrid from an Arraycollection without specifying DataGridColumn's individually. Is there any custom datagrid available where I can pass the datasource arraycollection and see the data populated in the output. Without knowing the structure / bluprint of an object is there anyway to find how many member variable that class have?
View 2 RepliesIn Actionscript 2 I find that I cannot have a "private function set" without returning the error "A member attribute was used incorrectly." If I change it to "public function set" I'm fine but that defeats the goal of trying to protect the function from setting externally
View 2 RepliesI would like to know, in Flex 4.5.1, if there is a way to create a static variable in a member function, something like bellow:
public function myFunction():void {
static test:Object = null;
}
my question is, is there a way for you to do a sample .FLA file of what you talked about so I can then adjust that to what I need because I really don't know much action scripting and don't know how to implement the code in this case. I've done some intricate Flash websites like: [url], but simply because I used a sample tutorial and adjusted it to my needs.

I have a class which controls a movie clip. The movie clip has a button in it. The problem is that I cannot use the class members in the onPress function of the button.[code]

View 1 RepliesI know that one can give a symbol already placed in the scene and instance name and be able to manipulate that object programatically through ActionScript in Frame actions. What I want to do instead, is bind that instance name to a class member so I can use it inside a class file and and eliminate the need for frame scripting.
I am new at this and I'm trying really hard to figure out what the ideal workflow is. I would like to use a fully OOP approach at developing my applications, however I like to use the graphical interface to position assets on the scene because I find it easier than positioning assets programatically. So the solution I am looking for is binding assets to class members. If such a workflow is not possible, what's the best approach in dealing with assets in a fully OOP design?
I have a movie clip on the main timeline. Within it, are several other movie clipe. I want a looping sound to be triggered when each member is clicked. here is the following code I have, but so far it aint working! I set them all to play initially, so that they are in sync. I imagine this is just a linkage issue of sorts.

I want to have an array, where each value is a function, where each function also has a set of arguments.
What is the correct syntax for setting a value of an array as a function?
Lastly, how do I pass arguments into the array's value?
Code:
var funcA = new Function(a:Number, b:Number){return a + b};
var funcB = new Function(a:Number, b:Number){return a - b};
var funcC = new Function(a:Number, b:Number){return a * b};

I'm having trouble wrapping my head around creating an array as a data member of a movieclip, i.e. dynamically adding it to that movieclip depending on data brought in at runtime.
Would I have to create an array seperately first and then somehow assign it to a new (typeless) data member of the movieclip?

How do variables true/false custom variables work in flash?
For example, what I want to do is create a simple true=false variable that I can call on an if statement later.

I noticed that neither the "Var1 = true;" part or the if(!Var1) part worked in flash.
I am unable to bind the selectedIndex public property of a spark DropDownList to it's original source in the view's presentation model.
For the purposes of replicating this issue with as few lines as possible I have two views, and one presentation model. The code follows.
Main.mxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
[code]...
Debugging the application I find that selectedIndex in the presentation model always remains at the default value assigned regardless of which item I selected from the DropDownList. For the sample code above this is -1.How can I bind the selectedIndex in the presentation model such that it is updated appropriately when the selected item DropDownList changes?
I created an flv video player using Flash Builder 4. This "BasicVideoPlayer" project is compiled into a SWC that will be eventually be used to create other video players that extend the functionality. One of the features is a view that appears when the video has finished playing that displays a "Play Again" button. This "Play Again" view has its own class, "BasicPlayAgain", that accepts a graphic asset that is exported from a .fla file that contains all of the graphic/UI assets.
In my new project, "EnhancedVideoPlayer", I'm using the BasicVideoPlayer SWC as a library to create a new video player that will add more functionality to the "Play Again" view; specifically it will add more buttons to that view.The EnhancedVideoPlayer uses a default class that extends the BasicVideoPlayer class. The BasicVideoPlayer class has a member called "playAgainScreen" whose type is BasicPlayAgain. The EnhancedVideoPlayer needs to override the playAgain member and recast it as EnhancedPlayAgain so it can control the new buttons properly.
I have a class, call it MyClass, and there are several variables that I need to be able to access each instance of from within the class.So for instance, I need the object myObject1, a member of MyClass, to store the variable myNumber.From the main timeline, if I trace myObject1.myNumber, I get whatever number I've stored.
However, I need to check the numbers against another parameter, so I need to be able to test if myObject.myNumber == myOtherNumber. But from within the class, if I trace this.myNumber or myNumber I get null.What is the proper syntax for accessing a variable within a class?
I have the following class, I want to do what is in the comments.I know I can do it with conditionals.I'd like to know if there is a way of doing that dinamicaly.This code is in AS3, but I know maybe this is related to javascript because AS3 is based on ECMAScript

View 1 RepliesI have an empty SWF that's sole purpose is to call loadMovieNum and start the project. Each loaded movie has a few variables defined within them - unique to those loaded SWFs. Instead of declaring all the variables in each SWF can I declare all of them in one place, in the first frame of the empty loader it all starts from? I'm thinking I can then declare a variable which each loaded movie can increment as needed for me.
