Flash :: Passing Data Between Objects/classes?
Dec 27, 2010
So i a building a categorized menu of different foods. I have a class for "categories" (buttons) which essentially will return a string "salads", "drinks", etc. I now have another class "menuItems" for items within categories and this handles sizes such as "small", "med", "large", etc. My problem now is that when i return "salads", i want to invoke an array which contains all the elements of salads, send it to menuItems which will populate the menu. So far i have both the category objects and the menu object setup. I just cant seem to be able to send the data that the category object is returning and pass it to the menu object. Both of which are added to the stage as shown below:
If there was a way that i could say add all these classes to one class so that they can talk to each other that would be great but i dont know how to do this.

We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.

I'm working through a tutorial to create an mp3 player in actionscript. When I delete my first 4 lines of code, the .swf still works great! I thought you needed to declare what classes you're importing for every object you create later on.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;

I have a object, called friends, It contains the url to facebook profile picture, ie friends.friend1 = "http:// etc"; I have a swf file called, master.swf, which is passed the information to create the object through flashvars. I need to get the object OR the flashvars info to the externally loaded swf, called pageOne.swf. I have seen and tried several different methods, but now seem to give me what I need.

How can I access other objects on the stage in Flash inside of my two custom classes? If I want an object tween to occur when one of my custom buttons is clicked how do i reference the object that I want to tween if I'm inside of my custom class.

Goal: To build an Internet Mapping Site (IMS) using FlashScenario: Using Manifold GIS for the backend. It is a full scale GIS software which easily outputs data (geometry and tabular) into xml. It has built in IMS capabilities, but theWould like to build an IMS using Flash as the front end, and Manifold as backend. How would I set up something where the GUI and display were Flash, the user interacts with the Flash (Pan, Zoom, Selection, Query(SQL)), have Flash fetch that from Manifold via xml, and display the new extent, query results, etc.?
So there would need to be geometry data retrieval and display as well as tabular. For example the user should be able to use a "Zoom by Extent" feature where they draw a rectangle on the map, it returns the coordinates of the box to Manifold, Manifold returns it, etc. On the other hand they need to be able to query the datasets (simple sql queries).I hope this makes some sense. I'm a noob in many aspects to backend so I'm just trying to get a handle on whether this is possible, and what backend needs to be implemented in order to make this happen? Would you know of a possilble better method? Silverlight, etc?

What I have is a list of videos (FLV) and when I click on avideo name (button) I want the menu page to close, open anotherpage (the video interface page) and play the video that was chosen.I do not want the video to play on the menu page but on it's owninterface page. I am guessing I will need to save the String namein an outside file for the video class to grab. Once the video hasfinished playing I want to go back to the menu page.

I'm trying to create a oop flash website, but I'm really struggling with some basic things. Example 1: We've got four classes
DocumentClass -> FormsClass -> Form1Class -> ListClass
Let's say someone clicks a next button in the FormClass. That dispatches an event "nextForm". Documentclass is listening for this event, and displays the next page. But it needs to read a value (selected radiobutton) from the ListClass. What would be the best way to get this variable to the documentclass?

I am creating an app in Flash Pro using AS3 for my wife to track our son's hockey progress. The app will have three sections: start, data entry, data retrieval.I have created the screens as separate classes to handle their individual functions. My data is stored in XML that I need to pass between these screens.I tried creating a separate class to handle my XML, but I am having trouble reading and writing to the new class. Is there a better way to handle passing this XML information around inside my application? Eventually I would like to have the app write to an external XML file then pull the new rewritten file back in. This code is in one of the .as files already, it's just not working yet.I added my files below (7 as and 1 fla Zipped) if you want to check them out.

I had this problem (Error: addChild() is not available in this class. Instead, use addElement() or modify the skin, if you have one.) and I followed the recommended solution:
// container ( IVisualElement ) for DisplayObjects
var container:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
addElement( container );
[Code].....
What I need to be able to do, is get the string Locale to be read by the Child swf.

I have a AS3 game with about 300 images to load.
Method A) Now what I do in .net is load images required in each class e.g., Player class has 50 images to do with player movement and Enemy Class has 50 images to do with enemy movement.
Method B) I have read in AS3 you usually load all the images in the game in 1 class and pass the array of images on to the relevant classes so player/enemy images are loaded in a load class and then pass on those images to the classes.
Which method is best as I prefer method A?
