Flash :: EventListener Function In Parent Class?

Jan 7, 2011

I have class ShowCase that inherite from my class ContentMC (that inherite from MovieClip). In the class ShowCase I have an EventListner that calls a function in the parent class ContentMC. But I get an error that says "Access of undefined property restoreMenuItem".

This is my eventlistner in ShowCase.as.

showcaseItem.addEventListener("CONTENTMCCLOSED", restoreMenuItem);

Here I get the error, it doesn't find the function restoreMenuItem.

The function restoreMenuItem is in ContenMC and looks like this.

public function restoreMenuItem(evt:Event):void
{
}

How do I call this function that's in the parent?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Call A Function From A Parent Class?

Jan 23, 2009

how I reference vars/instances from a parent class by using a static function and I wonder if there is a better way to do it.

I have a main document class Main.as with a public static function called mainFunction().

ActionScript Code:
public static function mainFunction( _mc:MovieClip, _nVar:Number ):void
{
// do something

[Code]......

This can be tricky if the static function has many variables from its own class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Call Function Of Parent Class?

How can I make a call to a function in the parent class of the class I'm in.

I realise that there is some stuff that is missing in the "full" code here, but that's just because I'm to lazy to write it all...

How do I get the "someButton" in the "child_class" to call the "theImportantFunction" in the main class? I know that it is possible to make a "dispatchEvent" in the "mouseClick" function, and then add a eventlistener in the main class.. But is there another way to just call the function directly?

I am using this:Code:TileCode(parent).game_quests.add_quest(0);to try to access the game_quests variable (which is defined within TileCode). However, for some reason it is not picking that up.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Child Object Interferes With Parent EventListener?

May 11, 2009

So I have a MC called "slider" slider has multiple graphics and clips and buttons in it. I have an event handler that tells the "slider" clip to move when you rollover and to move back when you rollout. Problem is that anything you rollover in the parent clip, once rolled off, even thought it is still in the parent clip, it triggers the rollout action.

Code:
this.slider.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, slideOvr);
this.slider.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, slideOut);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Declaring A Variable In A Function: Either The Function Or The EventListener - Doesn't Work

Nov 27, 2009

I have a set of Cue Points in an FLV I'm playing. It's an interactive quiz, so the idea is that flash will change a variable, theAnswer, to a different letter depending on which question it is. The answer to question 1 is B, question 2 is D, etc. Either the cue point event listener isn't working, or else it is working and Flash isn't declaring the variables. 1120: Access of undefined property theAnswer. I literally can't find a single problem with my code. I have an almost identical Event Listener further down which works.

Actionscript 3 :: Add An EventListener To A Function?

May 14, 2010

I'm trying to setup something like Aspect Oriented Programming in Actionscript 3, basically the only thing I need to be able to do is something like this:

SomeClass.getMethod("methodName").addEventListener(afterMethodExecuted, function() {
//run code
});

This way I can run code after (or before) any method in any class has run, allowing numerous new possibilities.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing Parameters To A Function From Within An EventListener

Feb 26, 2009

Code:
function enableButtons():void
{
for (var i:uint=0; i<40; i++)

[Code]...

I have 40 buttons on the stage. Their names are contained in the Array musicGrid. What I'm trying to do with this code is attach an EventListener to each button so that it will call the function mgMouseBehavior with a parameter to identify the button. For example, I want the button at musicGrid[0] to call the function mgMouseBehavior(0). I want the button at musicGrid[32] to call the function mgMouseBehavior(32), and so on.

However, if you try to add parameters to mgMouseBehavior in the addEventListener, for example:

Code:
musicGrid[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mgMouseBehavior(i));

Then you get Error 2007: Parameter listener must be non-null. How would I accomplish what I'm trying to do?
