i've the following snip of code in AS3:
var myWebService = new WebService();
myWebService.addEventListener("load", loadDone);
myWebService.loadWSDL("wsdl_address");
var myOperation:Operation;
function loadDone(evt:LoadEvent)
[Code]....
Seems like in AS3, I can in theory, delare arrays that can only contain certain data types:
private var my_array:Array.<String>;
produces this error:
1199: type parameters with a non-parameterized type
however
private var my_vector:Vector.<String>;
is just fine. Is there a way of making this work with an Array?
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."
I'm trying to do something like this:
var something = "someValue";
some_btn.onPress = function (something) {
someFunction(something);
}
[Code].....
But it traces "undefined". What would be the correct way of achieving this?
I read though this answer for as3, which is not working for as2.What's the most compatible way to handle parameters in flash?

I want to pass parameters when an event is triggered. My function:
private function keyChange(e:KeyboardEvent, setValue:Boolean):void
so that I can use the same function to set if a key is up or down. How would I write the event listener? I tried:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyChange(,true)); however that didn't work.

I am attempting to get Flash - Javascript communication working using ExternalInterface.addCallback, using code found at http:[url].... I am trying to pass parameters into Flash using a javascript function, but it only works if I insert a 'window.alert' line into the code. Once I click OK, the parameter str is passed into Flash ok. The function is:
function sendToFlash(str) { if (str=="tools"){ window.alert(str); getFlashMovie("richFunctionality_corp").sendTextToFlash(str);[code]....
If I remove the window.alert, str isn't passed into Flash. Is this a browser speed thing? A value menu is passed out of Flash using getURL("index.php?pageID=239&menu=tools"), i.e. the page reloads and a php script sends the appropriate str value to the sendToFlash javascript function based upon the value of menu.

View 1 RepliesI have imported the ShockWave flash Activex Control in my Delphi project. I can manipulate All the properties of a Flash movie file. But I need to define my own Parameters in the my own Flash file and Manipulate those parameters in the Delphi project. I know that passing parameters to a flash file is possible in the HTML script. But my project is a desktop application and i can't use it.
Is it possible to get a handle to the defined parameter of a flash file in the Delphi project? in fact All i need is passing parameter to flash file in the Delphi project.
In Flash CSn/AS3 you associate a Main class with a flash file which when loaded in the flash player "automatically creates an instance of the program's main class."I'd like to know how to pass arguments to the main class, since you don't write it yourself (you put its name in the Document textfield in the IDE).

I've created a Flash Animation (CS5, ActionScript 3) and converted it to SWF. The flash animation needs the values of 3 variables (defined in the swf timeline) BEFORE it starts running in my Flex application. I've embedded the swf file using swfloader in Flex, but I need to pass the parameters from Flex into Flash before the animation starts. How do I do this?
The way I have my flex code setup below, the variables are not being updated. I get an exception every time it gets to the changeParams function because it can't find "Type", "Num1", etc.
Part of My flash code:
//These 3 variables need to be populated via Flex BEFORE the animation starts...
var Num2:int;
var Num1:int;

I need to know the best method to find an item inside a list (Vector, Array, Dictionary, whatever is faster) of complex type (extensions of Objects and Sprites). I've used "Needle in Haystack" method, but it seems that it isn't fast enough.
E.g. Suppose that I have a collection of Sprites (a pool, in fact). Each sprite will be added to the stage and perform some action. After that, it will die. I don't want to pay the cost to dispose it (garbage collect) and create another (new) one every time so I'll keep the dead sprites in a collection.
Sometimes times I'll call a method that will add a sprite to the stage. This sprite can be a old one, if it is already dead, or a new one, if the pool don't have any free sprite.
One of the scenarios that pushed me to this question was a Particle System. A "head" particle leaving a "trail" of particles every frame and exploding into a flashy multitude of particles... Every frame...
Some times this counts up to 50.000 PNGs with motion, rotation, alpha, event dispatching, scale, etc... But, this is JUST ONE scenario...
At the moment I'm trying to use a Object Pool with a Linked List... Hopes that it will be faster that running a whole Array/Vector or create new instances every frame an let them dye with Garbage Collection.

View 1 RepliesI have a WCF Service running SOAP and allowing Flex / Flash to connect to it using basicHttpBinding by using the 'Data' 'Import Web Service' option. Unfortunately when I consume and invoke this service within Flex it throws the following error...
Error: Cannot find definition for type
'http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/System.Drawing::Size' at
mx.rpc.xml::XMLDecoder/decodeType()
...when using the following code...
// This will return an array of presentations
var service:PresentationAuthoring = new PresentationAuthoring();
var token:AsyncToken = service.getAllPresentationByClientId(
[code]. ..
This method returns an array of Presentation objects that are retreived by the service. At the moment there are no DataContracts and I'm allowing the POCO Presentation object to be serialised and punted out by the service that works fine. However, this class has a readonly property of the type System.Drawing.Size that derived from appropriate height and width properties. Looking through the generated code, it doesn't register a 'Size' class in the base import schema although it still seems to create a Size class.
An alternative has been to stop the derived property from being serialised using the [XmlIgnore] but that has not worked. I need a way of allowing my Flex application to communicate with my WCF service but it seems to choke on the System.Drawing.Size type and while I could change this, there are other framework types such as Point, Rectangle, etc, etc. that are utilised within the project.
I am creating a flex collection in which as model I have an array collection of slides.Each of the slide has a set of objects like array of images , array of captions etc . I want to pass these slides to the web service coded using asp.net and C# , from where it will be saved to a sql server db. Is there a way to send the image Array directly to the web service or I have to send each of the image separately by making as many calls to the web service as the number of images in the array .
In general what would be the most efficient way to send these array of slides and the associated objects to the web service so that they could be stored in the database ?

View 1 RepliesI found at this Adobe tutorial a nice "RemoteService" class that creates a RemoteObject and contains the functions for handling the result and fault events. If I wanted to use this approach, how could I pass the data from the result handler to interfaces that modules from the main application could use?
I could put the RemoteService/RemoteObject in the modules, but (in my opinion- and I could be wrong) the best design seems to be using the remote calls in the main app and passing the data along to the modules.
I've created a very simple video player that I want to use with many different FLV files on my site. Rather than packaging SWF files with each FLV, I'd like to just design one SWF file and have the corresponding HTML file pass the URL of the FLV as a parameter to the SWF. I've read a lot about passing in parameters from HTML to SWF using AS3, and it seems pretty straightforward. Here's an example of the code I created using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0:
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaderComplete);
function loaderComplete(evt:Event):void {
//traceText.text = "Loaded";
[Code]....
Note that I'm using the variable "userName" to pass the parameter. Eventually I'd use a variable like "movieURL" to convey the actual URL of the FLV file. In any case, when I run the code, I get ... nothing! Nothing but a blank text box. Both the HTML and SWF files are on my local machine.
If I uncomment the "//traceText.text = Loaded" line, the text box says "Loaded", which would indicate that the event listener is functioning properly.
