Actionscript 3 :: Get / Set Properties To Get Values From Other Classes Creates Much Duplicate Code Can It Different?
Jul 4, 2010
i am using get and setters in my as3 code to edit values of an other class (because those variables are shared) i dont like to put stage.sharedVar.isScrabble in my code every time to change a variable so i used get/set functions [code]as you van see it has a lot of duplicate code every time the "return stage.sharedVar." and the "stage.sharedVar."+ the value + " = val" is constantly comming back.i was wondering is there a other way of creating these get/sets?[code]

I am working with a Flex DateTimeAxis. I have a scenario where the DateTimeAxis sometimes creates duplicate months on the Axis. The month label unit is generated based on a min/max value that is supplied to the DateTimeAxis, it is NOT generated by the series data as far as I can tell. In other words, the duplication does not exist within the data supplied to the chart, but is part of automatic label generation process that DateTimeAxis will execute when supplying a min/max value for the axis.[code]...

I'm calling a flash file into the VB application. I'm also executing some code when user clicks on the SWF file.
Pushing a value into an Array is part of the code. What is happening is that.....when i trace the value of the Array, it shows duplicate values.
like if i'm pushing string "A" into the Array......when i trace the array it shows the array as [A,A] with length 2.
ActionScript Code:
if((second_mouse).hitTest(First_random_box))
{
Mouse_Team_One = ID;

I'm new to AS3. Learning how to create classes. Is comp = new HouseObjects creating a new class? Is comp creating an instance of the HouseObjects? I realize that this is inside public class TreeHouse. I'm thinking that HouseObjects, how I set it up is not a class...not sure what the correct way to set up classes and properties.
Also I noticed, that when I tried to link another movieclip using the same linkage name HouseObjects--it asked to enter a unique class. I'm trying to create multiple instances from the same class called HouseObjects.

I want to add some common functionality to a number of display object classes: Sprite, MovieClip, TextField, TLFTextField, Bitmap, Loader, SimpleButton, and possibly more.I can easily extend any one of those and add my code, but I would need to duplicate the same code across a bunch of classes, ie SuperSprite, SuperMovieClip, SuperTextField, etc.
So the options I've thought of: 1. Use includes, so each class extends whatever and simply includes the class code. I haven't tried this so I'm not sure you can even use includes like that, and I'm not sure how it might affect (break) code hinting.
2. Create a new class that takes a target reference and essentially wraps functionality on to any eligible target instance. I'm not crazy about this because it means the instance I'm dealing with isn't the actual display object (ie its some wrapper that references the display object.)
3. Create a core class that takes a target display object and encapsulates all the functionality, then create separate classes each that extend the various display objects and contain an instance of that core class with itself as the target. I think I like this idea but am sure I would come back later and be confused with the structure.

I want getProperty() to be called when I attempt access num. It works for any field which does not already exist, but not for fields that are predefined.

I am creating a game in Flash 8 with AS 2 and i have few questions to ask.First of all, i am stuck for 2 days at creating a Laser Beam from tower to the target.I searched all internet for solutions but i can't really find one, so i'll try posting questions myself..First i tryed to create and effectHolder into which every laser beam was created, because it seems i can create only one line in each movieClip.[code]This was triggered eveytime it had a target.With every tower that fired a laser i created it was getting more lag, so i tryed selfdestructing after few time.[code]The problem is that i didn't know how to pass the coordonates of the tower and the target to the MovieClip so it knows where to create the line.[code]how to create that line ("laser beam") for each tower, without lagging so much.

I have an array which I am populating as I navigate through the site. Sometimes due to cicumstances apparently out of my control, I end up with two (never more) duplicate values consecutively placed in my array, here is an example:
groceries = ["bananas", "apples", "apples", "oranges"];
I need to run a script at all times that checks to see if this happens, and removes the second duplicate value, as well as it's corresponding key.How can I do this?

Im building a project using an MVC pattern. I have (pseudo) abstract classes Model and View, each extended with particular models and views. But I cannot access properties on the extended classes of Model...Model simply distributes XML data, heres its constructor:
Code:
public function Model(data:XML)
{
_data = data; /*_data is a protected var of type XML in Model*/
}
MainModel extends Model, and has a property called _background of type Background which also extends Model:
Code:
private var _background:Background = new Background(some XML source);
public function MainModel(data:XML)
{
[code]....
The problem arises when I try to pass MainModel's background property as a parameter of _bgView (highlighted in red above). The compiler says there is no background property on Model, which is true, but I need it to look at its extended class MainModel, not Model. I've typed MainView's constructor parameter with MainModel, but it is still seeing it as Model.

I have a question about classes. I just learn that static means that functions and/or properties are specifics to a class, but is it a synonym of private? And why statics (not available to any instances?) properties and/or methods can have a public (available anywhere else (timeline)) access modifier? PS: I just start with classes.

how to set default property values for objects that are being created in a loop.
In the example below, these propeties are the same for each object created in the loop: titleTextField.selectable, titleTextField.wordWrap, titleTextField.x
If you pull these properties out of the loop, they are null because the TextField objects have not been created, but it seems silly to have to set them each time.
var titleTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleTextFormat.size = 10;
titleTextFormat.font = "Arial";

As far as I know, a pixel is a pixel. You can hardly move a DisplayObject half a pixel, can you? Still the x and y properties of a DisplayObject allow values with two decimals.
A small test..
PHP Code:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler);
function enterFrameHandler(e:Event):void {
myDisplayObject.y = Number(myInputBox.text);
trace(myDisplayObject.y);
}
Shows that this happens in steps of five (0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, etc.).
Values like for example 0.16 get converted to 0.15.
Also, the object moves 1 pixel as soon as it's x/y value is .2
You would expect the x and y properties to convert the given numbers to integers, no?

I've got a properties file with two distinct key-value pair patters like the following;name.name.name.key = valuename.name.fullname.key = valueAccessing them one by one is fine if the key is known.What I need now, though, is to access ALL values from say name.name.name without knowing the keys (integers to be exact). The values then have to be added to an ArrayList to be displayed in a List.The keys are completely random, so I don't know the range beforehand (I can't and don't want to hardcode the range of range of keys for each single properties file), so simply looping through a previously defined range isn't what I need here. Also, the keys are not successive.
How can I do this with AS3?Just for clarification as this seems to be a little confusing;I do not want to parse the properties file. I rather want to solve this using the methods AS and Flex already provide.The ResourceBundle class already has a method that outputs the content of the specified bundle. However, it contains all values. What I need is just a subset of values that match a given key pattern.Edit:To make this easier, I can drop the key pattern matching and create a new resource file with a distinct pattern. Now I only need to get all key-value pairs (I need both the integers from the keys and the value) from that resource.

I've made a button that presents a movie clip (a window) on the screen, you can move this window by grabbing the tab on the top of the window. But when you exit this window and open another (duplicate is made), you cannot move the window at all.My guess is that the code is lost when the duplicate is made, can someone tell me how to transfer my code to all my duplicates? For more info, visit I sent this about a year ago, and still havent got a responce.

how subclasses,instances,and inheritance work. The below code isn't actual project code, it's theoretical code, generalized to a simplistic level so that we can talk about the big issues.Let's say I have animals_app.fla, with a "Dog" class MC and a "Cat" class MC. Both "Dog" and "Cat" are subclasses of "Animals"; animals_app.fla uses document class "Main".
Intuitively, I think Animals should declare that every subclass should have some animalSpecies, and each subclass will define the value of its own animalSpecies. It wouldn't make sense for Animals to provide any default value, because it will always be different per subclass. Is this correct? I had tried out some code similar to that below, and was perplexed because it seemed like whenever a subclass tried to define a value for its own animalSpecies variable, it was actually changing the value of the variable in the Animal class, but that's not what I want. How do I rewrite this code so that each subclass defines the values of variables it inherits from its superclass, without altering the superclass? And how would I define the value of variables for each instance of a class, so that I'm only changing the values of that instance, without altering the subclass?
Animals.as
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]..........
Also, conventionally, what should be in my Main class? Only the addChild code which attaches MCs to the stage? Or should the values of variables be defined in Main? What am I missing? I recently read Foundation Game Design with Flash and didn't feel like the explanation was sufficient. I've tried scouring the web for OOP tutorials, but they're either too basic or too far over my head.where I should be defining values of variables for classes, subclasses, and instances?

i been trying to figure out a way to make sure my property values from my xml file are fitting sweetly into my classes.
using 'property is XClassType' pretty much tells me if its an array, boolean, number. But strings are a bit weird. Even though the property is declared public var some:String the below test doesn't trigger it being set to a String. Are Strings different than Boolean, Array, Number, etc.?
Code:
if (myTarget[i] is String) {
trace("prop is string");
myTarget[i]=String(mySource[i]);
}

For the first stage, I was able to build a walk-through demo in flash pro by creating buttons that when clicked caused the flash to change to different frames. easy enough. Now for the final part of this project, I need to make the interface fully interactive, as I was trying before. ie: you can click any button and lights go on and off or a loop counter increments, etc. Since there is logic involved and too many permutations to do a frame for each possible state, I'm back to trying to do this in an object oriented way. I've got some test code here.
<fx:Script>

protected function button1_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

debugger has some errors, so i don't know what exactly it will do. the errors are at the last two if statements where i'm trying to change the object property setting of the label. there is another error at the last curly bracket.
the idea is that there are two labels and a button. the first label starts out visible. when the button is clicked, a counter is checked, and incremented, then the counter is again checked and the appropriate label has it's visible property set to true. the intent is that in a list of several labels, pressing the button scrolls down them, until you press while on the last, which resets the counter and the first label becomes the visible one.

I'm aware that ActionScript 3.0 is designed from the ground up to be a largely object-oriented language and using it means less or even no timeline code in Flash documents.I'm quite experienced with OOP and am comfortable writing classes. However, since I mostly use Flash for animations, I hardly ever need to write ActionScript code other than for preloaders, subtitles, quality controls, website links and so on. In fact, I still set my Flash movies to use AS2 to this day because I'm used to gotoAndPlay()/gotoAndStop(), AS2 preloaders, subtitles, quality controls and even getURL(). Of course, I really want to move on now that practically everyone's on Flash Player 9 or 10 and now that I've dabbled with other OO languages like Java, C# and Objective-C too.
I'm a complete newcomer to AS3 and am not very learned with AS2 either. Considering my current use of ActionScript, are there any cases where it's still OK to use very simple AS3 code in the timeline instead of moving code to a class, especially since moving to a class might mean unnecessarily increasing the number of LOC from 4 to 40?
