Actionscript 3 :: Match Function Type Declaration With Differing Calls?

Dec 12, 2010

private function playSound():void
{
_soundChannel = _soundObj.play();
_soundChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, nextTrack);
}
<s:Button width="35" label=">>" click="nextTrack();"/>

Assuming the nextSound() function looks the same as playSound, typewise... The button click works fine, but the event listener won't call the function because its sending an argument the function isn't expecting. I can change the nextTrack function to be evt:Event, but then the button is sending not enough arguments, and I can't find anything to type it to that will work. I can make a typed function to call the un-typed nextTrack function from the event listener

public function callnextsong(evt:Event):void{
nextTrack();
}

ActionScript 3.0 :: Compiler Bug - Var Declaration Function Definition Postcedes External Called Function Execution

Jun 29, 2010

Use Flash CS5 (and AIR, though this does not seem like it would be AIR related) in Win XP 64 I have a MovieClip symbol in my library with the identifier 'Puzzle10Piece10' with the following actionscript attached to frame 1 of the only layer with the following actionscript:

[Code]...

This runs contrary to my understanding of the pre-compiler and code execution order. In my way of thinking, any reference creation and related memory allocation is made when the object is instantiated, and indeed that allocation, unlike C depends not on code order (declaration before use), though this is an order that would satisfy even the C pre-compiler. If I understand the Flash compiler at all, it's not even a question of 'code order'... the symbol is pre-compiled such that for it to exist... for it to be instantiated, the variable would exist before the function would even be 'available' to be called internally or externally. Is my thinking way off, or is this a bug?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Set A Default Value For An Object In A Function Declaration?

Feb 7, 2009

Lets say I want to call a function with an optional Object, how do I write that?If it was a String or a Number or some simple data type it would be:

Code:
function foo(s:String="Sample String", n:Number=100):void{}

But anything I try with an Object just throws an error. For example...

Code:
function foo(o:Object={x:10, b:10}):void{}

...makes the compiler barf, and so does every other version of this I've tried.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Declaration In Recently Added MovieClip

Jul 28, 2009

I am trying to access a function in a MovieClip that has been added to the stage. Right after loading in the function, I create a function that calls the function in the recently added MovieClip. The compiler does not recognize the Function and when I go into debug mode it shows up as null. I've tried declaring the function in the MovieClip using 3 different methods, but I get the same result.

Code:
function Sleep(){
var Sleep = function(){
this.Sleep = function(){

What I find strange is that when I declare the function on the stage, it looks just fine and I can even see it (as a Function object) in the debug panel.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Function That Calls Itself

Aug 9, 2007

im using a function that iterates through all nodes in an XML tree, and then calls itself again if any of the nodes it is looking at has a set of child nodes, so in other words it multi-dimensionally loops through the entire XML tree.[code]one question i have is - am i correct in my assumption that while variables declared within a function are not accessible anywhere but within that function, if a function calls itself, any loops within that function that use a variable such as "i" will be affected seeing as "i" is accessible within the function?if so, how do i get around that? currently my function loops through all the way down to last child node it can find along the first branch of the XML tree, but then doesnt continue looping through the other branches.

Arrays :: Declaring A Null Property Within An Object, Or Running A Function Within An Object Declaration

Feb 22, 2011

I have an object which is assigned a number of properties:

var project_array:Array = [];
var slideObject:Object = {
project_title : myXML.projects.project[i].title.toUpperCase(),

[Code].....

but I'm not quite sure where to place this. If I place it outside of the object constructor, I get "term is undefined", I guess because it doesn't know what project_clips_array is - but if I declare project_clips_array in the constructor, it appears to need to be defined, i.e. I can't create a blank property. But I can't place it in the constructor either, because it doesn't seem to allow me to run a function within an object constructor. What is the proper syntax or arrangement of code for executing this function to get the array within the object?

Flex :: Using HTTPService In Consecutive Function Calls

Mar 15, 2011

I have this button:
<s:Button includeIn="MeniuPrincipal" label="Descarcare Date" click="downloadLmData(event)"/>
And this click event handler:
protected function downloadLmData(event:MouseEvent):void {
downloadData('competenta', 'competente');
downloadData('localitate', 'localitati');
}

The downloadData function looks like this:
private function downloadData(item:String, items:String):void {
try {
var colVar:String = 'col' + cappitalize(items);
this.status = "Descarcare date in curs...";
this[colVar] = null;

The problem is, all calls are ignored, except for the first one. Is there any "queuing" mechanism which would allow all calls to be made?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Arbitrary Expressions In Function Calls?

Nov 25, 2009

I have several custom functions that I import as .as files, but I frequently have to modify them to suit projects, which makes standardization and version tracking harder.Is there a way to pass arbitrary expressions to a function when it's called? For example, if I write the function,

Code:
function foo(){
for(i=1; i<=1; i++){
trace(i);
}
}

would there be some way to attach an additional expression after the trace function during the function call? As in,

Code:

foo(do_stuff_here);

where the function would act as if it had said,

Code:
function foo(){
for(i=1; i<=1; i++){
trace(i);

[code]....

but without modifying the original function?I realize I could add an expression to the original function within a conditional, and toggle it via an argument within the call, but since I don't know what I'll add next, or whether I'll need it next time, this would become impractical quickly.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Button That Calls A Javascript Function Like An Anchor?

Feb 9, 2009

I have a button in an AS 2.0 fla that calls a javascript function like an anchor so the html goes to a set y position of 750button actions are in a frame

jobsLink_mc.onPress = function () {
//ExternalInterface.call("scrollPageY");
///getURL("javascript:scrollPageY();")
getURL("javascript: scrolling()")

Now the javascript in the html of the page is

<script language="javascript">
function scrolling(){
document.body.scrollTop = 750;
}

I originally copied the code from a page a designer never finished but the function works. [URL]click the blue button JOBS / INTERNSHIPS you will see the flash button calls the java function and the page is viewed at Y 750 Now I have the same page elements in a different fla that calls the same function and it doesn't work.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Stopping Function Calls In Game Project?

Indeed I didn't have these functions on the 51st frame, the 51st frame only contains a stop action. But flash calls all the major function on the 51st frame also, I don't want these function to call on the 51st frame. Is there any way to stop this? Or else my program contains error?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Button In Parent SWF Calls Function In Child SWF?

Mar 26, 2011

I do not want to use external .as files because I will have about 100 swfs to manage in this project, 100 swf is a lot of file management alone without adding 100 .as files on top of it.This is the code in the parent swf file to call the child swf and place it in the page_mc movieclip (note in my final project "child.swf" is replaced with the loading array variable but we're going to keep it simple):

ActionScript Code:
var pageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
page_mc.addChild(pageLoader);
var loadedpage:URLRequest=new URLRequest("child.swf");
pageLoader.load(loadedpage);

Now just for a simple function to call, we'll say we have a box_mc on the stage in the child swf, and when we click the button in the parent swf I want to call a simple function like this to hide it:

ActionScript Code:
function hideBox(event:Event):void {
box_mc.visible=false;
}

how do I call that function in the child swf from a button in the parent swf?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Daisy-chaining Function Calls Gracefully?

Jun 16, 2010

-check for branding video bumper, play bumper if set to true; otherwise:
-play video

On playback end:
-check for post-roll ad, play ad if true; otherwise:
-reset video

The way I have it coded/hacked works fine, but is less than ideal, especially as I plan to build on it. It looks something like this:[code]So, what's a better way to handle this? For an interactive timeline/map I've made in the past, there were a number events that were triggered at certain times during audio narration. Each event was unique (some were animations, others were text labels that appeared, etc), but I unified them as classes with a common 'time' property and common public go() function, and threw them into an array. As the narration played back I would check the 'time' property of the next object in the array, and once it matched I would call the go() function for that event, increment the phase position (so I know which array index to check next), and continue.
