Flash :: Class Code Removed Long Ago (sometimes) Gets Executed With Log Traces?
Nov 11, 2011
I have an issue in which outdated code removed long ago code in an actionscript 2 class sometimes gets executed. I can tell this in that the application fails and trace statements removed long ago gets logged to a console.The closest match I've come across is this post:Flash CS4 refuses to let goHere are the things I've triedI hI have searched an uncompressed debug-enabled version for the trace entry. It is not there.I have decompiled the compiled version and searched that. It is not there.I ave deleted all ASO files and tried to recompile.I have not been able to reliably reproduce the conditions in which the situation arises.I've testet 700 times in a row (yes - sevenhundred times - this is a high profile project) and it would not occur. Then tested another time and it occured. No difference in my approach to testing.I have compiled on another, freshly installed machine. No difference.I have ruled out that it may relate to timestamps since I've tried to compile locally and w/o version control.

I'm trying this:
- create some asset in library, export for as in frame 1
- export an assets.swc, and set the relative library path publish option in othes flas that use assets.swc
- Then, there's a Main.as document class that uses other classes tha use the assets in assets.swc
Problems start when some asset has some code inside. Say, a button with stopped event states. Well, the stop() commands don't get executed, so the buttons are effectively instantiated, but their timeline plays until the end. Probably because they're not initialized in the timeline (being exported in frame 1, so, in fact, before).Usually, without swc, to solve this problem one would put all assets in frame 2 and then check for cuttentFrame == 3 (http:url...). This is what I'd really like to avoid. And from here the question: is that possible? Is there a way (in flash, not flax) to use swc to properly get assets containing some simple code (usually stop commands) in their timeline?

I am using the following code to tween my PortFolio_mc but now I want to add some more parameters ake the content in the center of the page when resizing. How can I modify the code? The following is the code I am using:Code: TweenMax.fromTo(PortFolio_mc, 5, {x:980, y:410, alpha:.5}, {x:100, y:410, alpha:1, delay:3, ease:Strong.easeOut});The following are the detail parameters which I would like to use in WIDTH & HEIGHT of above code:
Code:
PortFolio_mc.x=stage.stageWidth/2-PortFolio_mc.width/2-180;
PortFolio_mc.y=stage.stageHeight/2-PortFolio_mc.height/2;

Was testing out my movie and using the simulate download option. Bored while waiting I started to resize the movie. Then I got an error about over 256 levels of recursion. Intrigued I tried to simulate the error again. I realized that it would only happen when I resized the movie a bunch while it was doing simulate download. Sometimes I would also get an error "A with action canceled because object didn't exist".
Digging through the code I couldn't figure it out. On the first frame of my movie all I had was a setInterval that changes the loadbar display to show how much is loading. It also tells it to stop(). Once loaded it tells it to gotoAndPlay(5). Frame 5 is where all of my other code is at. This error was happening at Frame 1? Then I remembered I had used "with" in some code to realign stuff on resize. Like:
[Code]....
As soon as I commented out the stagelistener stuff the error stopped. The stage code is on frame 5. It should not start running until the movie has loaded as frame 1 stops the movie until it is loaded. It is running BEFORE the movie is loaded though because I get the "with action" error and the 256 levels of recursion error. If I put a trace in the listener function it doesn't trace back until it is at frame 5, but for some reason part of it still runs. Anyway, sorry for the long explain...just a strange, strange error. Now I don't know what to do about it. I want the stage listener, but I definitely don't want an endless loop or other errors occurring.

I wonder if there is any way to view the Actionscript that is exectued when executing a fla file. Or maybe a tool that would allow me to generate Actionscript through a graphical interface.For example, I create a Flash File and draw a circle.

I have a strange issue in an AS3 project I'm building. For some reason I am not receiving any traces from a specific class in my project. I can get traces from any other class though. I have a Main.as that loads several classes, one of which is IphoneScroller.as
ActionScript Code:
Tipper: News Scroller
package org.FlepStudio.Tipper{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.geom.*;
[Code] .....
Any reasons why I might not be getting traces? I'd also like to note that I have a container that has several control components as children. I pass the container to the iphoneScroller for scrolling and it works fine...until I click a numericstepper and the iphonescroller breaks. However, other controls like InputTextfields don't break the scoller. These issues are why I've been trying to do traces in the first place.

I have some code on the main time line which basicially just says when this button is pressed go to this frame indicated by the frame label. In this case "answer". This is done inside a movie clip, which isn't on the main time line.

Let's say I have some code like this in AS3.[code]The constructor for Thing is going to cause a swf to be rendered onto some movieclip.If the loop is run 10 times or so, most of the time I will only end up with a subset of Things showing up on the clip. I'm guessing this is a problem that flash is having loading a bunch of Things at the same time.I've been able to solve this problem by passing callbacks to the Thing constructor, and only continuing the loop once the previous Thing is completely loaded and calls back.First of all, is this a known problem? Or am I going about this in the wrong way? Secondly, is there any way I can tell flash/as to run this code in a linear fashion without the callbacks? It gets kind of annoying doing this everywhere.So I think richardolsson is right, we must be doing something wrong. To restate the problem, if I try to load multiple swfs onto the stage, even as few as two or three, without waiting for the previous one to finish loading, I will get an unpredictalbe number loaded. For example, running the loop above 10 times, I may end up getting the 2nd, 5th and 10th Things loaded. The others seemingly getting lost in asynchronousity. Flash shows no runtime errors in these situations. So here's the basic idea of how we are doing things.[code]This is the basic scheme. If I try to create a bunch of instances of 'child' WITHOUT waiting for the onLoaded function to finish on the previous 'child', random instances simply won't show up. I wrote the above code very quickly, it is not compy/paste, so ignore simple errors. Are there any glaring reasons why the above method does not work?

The following code works as expected: when a user clicks the button, the installer automatically launches.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"[code]....
I verified that the installApp function is executed.Why doesn't the second piece of code work? Is user interaction required? If so what's a way around this?

I was thinking about how to streamline my code the other day and looked through my classes checking for possible memory leaks. I wonder when are variables declared inside of methods clear for garbage collection? or are they not and just hang around? For instance if I have a class like this:
[Code]...
Since the variable was declared without reference into the class how long does it stay in Flash's memory, or does it stay indefinitely because it cannot be nullified?

Got to the point where the hole in my AS3 knowledge is getting large!Realising I have confusion about the relationship of:Body of code on first frame of AS3 file.(Which I have so far used to create instances of library objects using addchild and make calls to class code).Is this code called the document code? What do people call it?Numerous classes linked together by extending each other etc.Library objects (usually graphical objects)Should it be done differently? have the following problems due to lack of understanding:Addchild complicated from a class but straight forward in main body code.Cant call functions on the main body code from classes, because class code does not know the main body code exists?

I am trying to dispatch an event but not sure when I should do it to get the right results. The first event "submitClicked" is in the right spot and works great. However, the second event "dataReady" seems like it might be a problem. I need it to be dispatched after this.compiledFormData is set.Does AS3 wait for each line of code in a function to be executed before moving on to the next line?

I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.

I'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?

m working on an Adobe Flex application that loads lots of Flex Modules and other Flash sub-applications and Flash resources. Each time one successfully loads the flashlog.txt and Flex Console show a trace like "[SWF] filename.swf - [filesize] bytes after decompression". Specifically:[SWF] Main.swf - 1,361,299 bytes after decompression [SWF] core/Core.swf - 516,390 bytes after decompression
I don't want to disable traces because I am debugging, but these traces are rather noisy. How can I suppress only the [SWF] loaded traces?

When I view this movie, the animation leaves trails of color when an object moves across the screen, leaving behind little bits of color too. This does not happen when I export a SWF, but it does happen when I export a Quicktime movie. I export using Quicktime, so I can then I can export it into a flv in Adone media encorder.Why does this happen?
