Flash :: Add Parameters In The Constructor Of A Class A, Subclassing Movieclip, Present On Stage At Design Time
Nov 12, 2011
There is a library component represented by Class A. But constructor of this class requires some parameters. When the component needs to be added dynamically, it's fine because of code :
var abc:A = new A(param1,param2)
But what if my movieclip is already present on the stage. I notice it gives out error, that the parameters are null.
Is their any way to insert constructor parameters for movieclips already on stage.

Basic OOP question... I want to add a couple functions to the Array class so that my program will be amazing and make me rich and famous overnight. So I create a new subclass NewArray which extends Array. Do I need to write a constructor method for NewArray? If I leave it blank will it just use the parent's (Array's) constructor method?

Why do I get this error saying parent does not exist when I try to remove a movieclip. In the first case, the movieclip cannot exist either on screen/memory if it was not 'contained' by either a movieclip or stage. How can this happen, can somebody explain how this "movieclip" loses its parent reference to the stage or container mc. The debugger stack shows the value of movieclip.parent as null.

Is it possible to create a class instance dynamically and specifiy the constructor parameters dynamically?
So for example, imagine I have a class 'TestClass' which as constructor takes two parameters, (Array, int)[code]...

In the AS3 there is a remark, that a Class Constructor is just a method of the class, that is executed when an object of that class is created. So, since the constructor is just a method of a class, how can I call it directly from the other class methods?

I would like to take advantage of all the goodness of the newer Vector class for FP10, but it seems it is marked as final. I am doing some intensive mathematical processing in Actionscript, and repeatedly process arrays of Numbers. I have previously been using my own subclass of Array(I call it NumericArray), with added functions such as sum(), mean(), add(), multiply(), etc. This works very well and allows for some clean OO code. However, I am finding through profiling that about 95% of my processing time occurs in the functions of these objects. I need more performance out of these arrays.
I want to use a Vector, as it provides some performance enhancements. I want to specifically use a Vector.<Number>. Unfortunately, I cannot subclass Vector as it is marked final. What is the best and cleanest way to imitate what I was previously doing with a subclass of Array, to a Vector.<Number>?
I have thought about passing around Vector.<Number> variables instead of my custom class and just using utility functions to manipulate, but this is not good OO design and will be a pain to use, not to mention ugly.

So I usually use an object in the constructor to receive the parameters like new Class({param1:00,param2:0099,etc).To be able to access those parameters from other functions inside the class I create an object, and copy it:
Code:
public class MyClass {
var params = {};
public function MyClass(p){

I've got a function wich can accept a varible number of parameter with a rest operator. I want create an object passing the argument collected with the rest operator directly to a constructor without create an object and call an initializing function and without passing the entire array but the parameters ah I do with apply() function.

when to use this in a classes?is there any specific rule?is it wrong to use this when you want to just access the stage that way?or is it better to pass the reference to the stage in the class constructor?

my movie is linked to an external class called game, and in the game cosntructor I am trying to access instances on my stage. I have tried MovieClip(root).instancename, root.instancename and even tried adding an event listener to listen when the movie is done loading because I thought maybe it was because the instances on the stage weren't created before the constructor is ran. This is the main class, shouldn't it be easy?

I have a class which subclasses Sprite (Class1). In this class I draw something on the stage. I have another class (Class2) that creates several instances of the first class (Class1) and places them on the stage. As I am creating the instances of Class1, I am adding an event listener for the CLICK event for each instance.When I click on any of the Class1 instances, I would like to execute a public function in Class1. However e.target is Sprite and I cannot conver it to type Class1.

I am using the draw() method of the BitmapData to encode a jpeg of part of the image. Now this should be easy enough given the object I want to draw to the bitmap is on the stage at design time so I know its location and dimetions exactly! Heres the code I have in place.
Code:
var myBitmapSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData ( street.width, street.height, false, 0x333333);
myBitmapSource.draw(street, null, null, null, new Rectangle( 96, 5, 571, 450 ), true );
I know for a FACT that no part of the street clip I am drawing out is in negative space, and it's registration is (0,0). However, it cuts off A lot of the top of my image. y=5 in the above rectangle is where I need the top to be, but it cuts the top off of the image... even if I change it to 0, it has no effect.

I'd like to get more of the actionscript into class files and off the various time lines. The problem is I can't make it work. I have a class file called dezynworks.aegis.TextPanel Container.I have a MovieClip in my library called TextScrollWinow. Linkage for TextScroll Window: Identifier, TextScrollWindow; class: dezynworks.aegis.TextPanelContainer. Now I read on a web site that dragging the clip to the stage would retain the class association. That is news to me. I thought you had to use attach. Regardless, neither way seems to work.[code]The attach works. The clips appear on the stage, but the class is gone. dummy.init() (a method of the TextPanelContainer class) is never called and the instanceof statement returns false. There are no compiler errors. There are no runtime errors. I've set up test cases in a new Flash file and it all works like I expect.I've tried deliberately gumming up the class name and introducing syntax errors into the class file. It seems Flash is finding the file okay. Something must be failing silently, but I have no clue what and I'm out of ideas.

I've got a simple class:
package somepackage
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class NewMc extends MovieClip{ public var myVar:String = "something";}}
And there is a question now: how can I assign a "real" MovieClip object to my created-class object?
I mean: var realMc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();

Im creating a movieclip when a button is pressed:
Code:
// This loads the photo gallery swf when button 4 is pressed
Menu.Button_4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF);
var fl_Loader:Loader;
//This variable keeps track of whether you want to load or unload the SWF
[code]....
now I want to specify the movie's x and y value once its loaded, but when I do it says that fl_loader does not exist.Is there a way to change the movie's parameters only after its been loaded?

I have the Class and the parameters of its contructor as an object. What I need to do is a function that returns an instance of this class, passing this parameters to the constructor.
This is the code:
Some random and unmodifiable class:
public Foo {
public function Foo(a:int, b:String) {
// constructor
}
}
And some function (in some another class):
function bar(params:Object):* {
var baz:Foo = new Foo(params.a, params.b);
return baz;
}
What I need to do is make this function generic, without pass params as parameter to Foo constructor because I can't modify it. Something like:
function bar2(clazz:Class, params:Object):* {
var baz:* = new clazz(/*some magic way to transform params in comma separated parameters*/);
return baz;
}

I am working on a side-scrolling platformer game. Because of this, I have a class that acts as a floor. I also have a class representing enemies. I am having problems with passing a parameter to a custom class' constructor. The class (SkullDemon.as) extends MovieClip. I am trying to pass an instance (called "floorL1") of a customer class called "FloorLevel1." "FloorLevel1" also extends MovieClip (I do not have a written .as file for "FloorLevel1"; I just exported the floor MovieClip to that class).
I am trying to pass an instance of "FloorLevel1" so that the "SkullDemon" object can land on the floor just like in a platformer. My main class is called "TME2_Main." This is the class from which I try to pass the "floorL1" instance to the "SkullDemon" class. This is how I try to create a Skull Demon instance and pass "floorL1" to its constructor:
[Code]...
What am I doing wrong here? I have spent a while looking for solutions (including moving code outside of TME2_Main's constructor),

I want to serialize ThugtrisShapes' children (heritage/polymorphism) but his children like Right_LShape take constructor parameters,i have to assign it a default value (in my case null because they receive an Array type), but i get this error even when implementing IExternalizable.
Take Note: IForm extends IExternalizable.
here is a link i found about it but it still does not work...[URL]
Code:
public class ThugtrisShapes extends Sprite implements IForm
{
var squares_:Array;
var numsquares_:int=MAX_SQUARES;

I know that not all class' can be cloned , but cloning is an important aspect of OO programming.... There should be a solution for my problem,besides taking the parameter out of the constructor and add a setter.

Let us assume I have classes "Main", "Sub1" and "Sub2". I also have interface "Inter".[code] Basically, I want the constructor function of any class implementing "Inter" to take the same parameters, and thus avoid initialization errors. (So as that the code above gives a compiler error) With any other function,[code]But As the constructor name differs from function to function, I cannot do this.

So I have a movieclip that I want to play nice with my class file. So I set the linkage and all that and it works. But, my initialization function gets called with no parameters, because I have not set any. How do I do that with this method?
I've tried something like:
Code:
import tab;
tab1_mc = new tab("left", 5, 55, "testclip.swf", 0);
And that sets the parameters, but not before the linkage on the MovieClip fires. how to get the best of both worlds?

Say i have a movieclip named a_Mc ( ClassA ) I have a sub-movieclip named b_Mc ( ClassB )
CASE 1: Accessing the sub-movieclip b_Mc which is already present inside the a_Mc movieclip
( Since Flash IDE has "Automatic instance naming" OFF )
ClassA mentions the name of b_Mc as => var b_Mc:MovieClip;
NOTE HERE: That the variable name MUST BE same as the name of the instance on stage.
So i can access it as : trace( a_Mc.b_Mc);

I know I can create instances from a string like this:
var classFromClassPath:Class = getDefinitionByName(classPath) as Class;
var instance:Object = new classFromClassPath()
I know I can call some function with a parameter array like this
var x:Function = someFunction;
x.apply(null,args);
But does anyone know if I can pass parameters like that when I construct a class?
