ActionScript 3 :: Flash S5 - Reading Variable From Different Class
Jan 30, 2012I have already set a variable in my document class "Main.as". I am now trying to access that variable and read its value from a different Class and Function, take that value and email it. For example in my "Main.as" file I have this function:
public var _myVar:String;
function create() {
_myVar = "hello";
}
Now from my other class "EmailtoFriend.as" I have a new function to try and get the value of that pre set variable:
function getVar() {
trace(_myVar);
}
Why will it not output "hello"? Instead I get an error saying: Access of undefined property _myVar.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Variable Monitoring From Outside Class
Aug 5, 2011I am attempting to make a simple class that I use to debug some of my code at runtime. I use a function in my debug class to pass a variable from another class that I want to monitor in realtime. For simplicity sake I am only passing Stings at the moment. I can pass the variable that I want successfully but I am stumpted as to how I to get my DebugClass to monitor that variable in realtime. Since the variable is being altered in another class, what would I needto do to have the debugClass monitor that variable without having to call a new function everytime the varible changes, which could be 300+ times a minute.
This is the current method I use to add the variable to my displayList:
protected function addDebugData(stringToAdd:String):void{
var debugText1:TextField = new TextField();
debugText1.border = true;

AS3 :: Flash - Simulate AS2 _global Variable Using A Simple Class?
Feb 14, 2011I have recently started making (and am still making) the transition from ActionScript 2 to 3. I have used the _global variable in an AS2 project as I needed a variable to be accessible from within ANY swf loaded into my main movie. This worked like a treat.
However, along came AS3 and whipped that from right under my feet. After much Googling, a few people suggested making use of a simple class with a simple variable that can be publicly set and retrieved. I made a simple class, imported it and manipulated the value, and all went well, however the instance of the class I create in my main loader movie is still not accessible from within a second SWF that gets loaded into my movie. If I re-instantiate the class in the SWF that is being dynamically loaded, the value reverts to the default value in the class code, not the new value set in my parent (first) movie.
Here is my class code, stored in an external .as file, is there any way I can simulate the ostype variable being a global variable?
package{
public class ostype {
public var ismac:Boolean = false;
[code]....
it's used as a simple identifier as to what operating system this flash app is being used on (mac or windows) and as a result let's me server content - such as saving files - in a different manner.
Flash :: Accessing A Variable Declared In Fla From Document Class?
May 24, 2011On the stage I have a movieclip by the name of rect_mc. Inside it have have a MovieClip square_mc.In the time line that I get when I double click on rect_mc (timeline of rect_mc) I have written the following code
var width1:Number;
width1 = sqaure_mc.width;
How can I access width1 from the document class?The thing that I want to is access the variable declared (width1) in the timeline of rect_mc. Just for the sake of a example only I choose the width of MovieClip.My doubt is how can access a variable declared inside the timeline of rect_mc from the document class. It could be any variable.My document class is:
package

Flash :: Sending Variable From Fla To Document Class And Then Accessing?
May 31, 2011I want to find out whether my swf was loaded locally or from another swf. For this purpose I have declared a variable 'parentType' in my fla. var parentType:String = String(parent); There is a function in the document class that determines whether swf was loaded locally or from another swf. The name of the function in the document class is 'externalOrInternal'. The varaible parentType is passed as a parameter to the function externalOrInternal externalOrInternal(parentType); The name of the document class is Main. In the constructor of Main I have the function pollResize() (the use of this function is to listen for the resizing event. That part of the code is not shown in the snippet given below).
[Code]...
I see that swfParentType is has value insde the function externalOrInternal. My doubt is why null is traced inside the function pollResize. Why is it not [object Stage] as inside externalOrInternal. Due to this I am not able proceed further with the stage resizing event.What needs to be done so that proper value is traced in the function pollResize.
ActionScript 3 :: Variable Flash UI - MouseCursor Class Not Defined
Jan 16, 2012This is quite strange to me since the MouseCursor class is being used as static.
Mouse.cursor = MouseCursor.BUTTON;
This is what I am using the MouseCursor class as and hence it is static. We got this error posted by a customer and the customer has also attached a screenshot of the error.
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable flash.ui::MouseCursor is not defined
I first assumed that this could be perhaps because he was running an older version of Flash Player ( older than v10 ). But his screenshot clearly shows that it is running version 10 of the flash player.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass Variable From Class File To Flash?
Dec 21, 2011I am adding some movieclips dynamically to stage. If we click on the movieclips, they goto and stop at frame 2. The Click Event for the Movieclip is defined in the base class
Code:
package {
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code].....
But, I cannot figure out how to get the name of the movieclip.
I cannot add click event for movieclips in flash, because there is already a click event in the class file.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing A Class's Static Functions From A Variable Of Type Class?
Feb 19, 2010I realize this is kind of an odd issue, but I am wondering if there's any way to get Flash to allow me to access a class's static functions using a class variable that points to the class. Example:I create a class called FooClass that has a static function named fooI then create a variable of type Class that points to it
Code:

However, when I try to call foo() using the variable, it errors saying the function

Flex :: Assign Variable As Class In Flash Builder 4 Hero SDK
Jan 17, 2011I am trying to assign a variable to a view navigation as follows:
protected function list_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var name1:String = list.selectedItem.vPage;

As the View is presented as a static and not a variable. When you try to submit it as a variable in any format (String, Object) an error occurs.

how I can send the (View)Class as a variable or if this is a bug in the SDK

ActionScript 2.0 :: [Flash 8 Class] Variable Alias No Longer Working?
Aug 8, 2006I like to make alias varaibles for long names, so that i don't have to keep repeating huge lines of text, but when i try to create one for a custom class, it fails.
Code:
Clients["Client"+i] = new Client();
var Client:Object = Clients["Client"+i]
Its almost as if flash is trying to make the new variable a new Project(); instead of a reference to the other variable...
ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing A Variable From The Document Class Into A Custom Class?
Dec 28, 2009I'm trying to create a class which will create a tween for several different instances of an object. I am creating the instances in the Document Class. The trick is, I would like to specify how long each tween will take.
Here's what I have so far:
DOCUMENT CLASS
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import mcCloud;
[Code].....
As you can see, I have a variable "myTime" which syncs the timer and the tween. This causes to tween to repeat and the clouds to continually scroll across the stage. How can I determine the var myTime at the time I create each instance of the Movie Clip mcCloud?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Reassign Class Variable To A Blank Instance Of Its Class?
Aug 31, 2011When I declare a class variable
private var myVar:MyClass = new MyClass();
It creates a new instance of that class that will trace as [Object MyClass].
However, as soon as I assign it to something
myVar = thisOtherVar;
It will now trace as [Object thisOtherVar].
I need to get it back to where it's just an "empty" blank class instance, if that makes any sense at all.
Professional :: Accessing A Variable Defined In One Class From Another Class
Mar 14, 2011I've only been programming in as3 for a couple months, and so far I've written several compositional classes that take MovieClips as inputs to handle behaviors and interactions in a simple game I'm creating. One problem I keep coming upon is that I'd love to access the custom variables I define within one class from another class. In the game I'm creating, Main.as is my document class, from which I invoke a class called 'Level1.as' which invokes all the other classes I've written.Below I've pasted my class 'DieLikeThePhishes'. For example, I would love to know the syntax for accessing the boolean variable 'phish1BeenHit' (line 31) from another class. I've tried the dot syntax you would use to access a MovieClip inside another MovieClip and it doesn't seem to be working for me.[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?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using A Variable As A Class Name?
May 8, 2009Having just made the jump from Actionscript 2 to 3, I'm having problems.Is it possible (I hope so) to use a variable when creating a class?I have a movieclip 'exclam' in the Library, and want to programatically add it to the scene: I can use the code:var asset:exclam = new exclam();to do this. However, if I have a variable 'textvar' containing "exclam", I'd like to use code like:var asset:textvar = new textvar();Of course, it doesn't work, since it thinks 'textvar' is the name of the movieclip I'm trying to use. Hopefully it's just a matter of syntax.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Getting A Variable From A Class?
Sep 9, 2007I have just created a class 'ClassA' that loads an XML file.Within that class I have a public function that navigates through the XML and populates arrays with the XML content.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Set A Class Variable To Id
Mar 3, 2005i'm having an issue fitting setInterval() methods into an AS2 class--basically, since setInterval works by calling a function at a set interval, and it returns an object reference, like this:
Code:
public function loadSplash():Void {
var id=setInterval(loadSplashMC,1000);
var sM:Object=new Object();
Mouse.addListener(sM);
[code]....
the problem is that i can't set a class variable to id--i tried defining it as a generic object, like this:
public var id:Object;
but it didn't work...i'm not used to working with setInterval, so maybe i'm just not using it right--perhaps i should put it all into one function?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting Variable Definition From Class?
Jan 7, 2010Any way that I could get a variable definition straight from a class (or some sort) without having to create an object and read it from the object. Basically I need to know a whether an object will have a specific true or a false variable definition but I don't need to create the object right away for anything else. It seems a bit of extra processing to create an object I may not use for sometime but just needed to know a true/false early on. I can give it the name of the class just hoping to bypass the object creation and hope garbage deletion will take care of it.
