I'm using FDT and Flash 10, and have just discovered Flixel, but when I import the source into my classes directory I get loads of errors and warnings.
I have fixed the errors, after reading this post, but I still have a lot of warnings left.
Is there any way to stop FDT from giving me warnings on a specific package? I guess Eclipse would have the same option?
I am taking XML type variables in model and binding with component properties in action script code. Its perfectly fine if its unable to bind the child nodes or other sibling properties of the XML itself and I dont want eclipse to generate this run time warning! I did suppress warnings in flex compiler using "-show-binding-warnings=false". But that does not seem to be working for run time binding warnings.
Warning: unable to bind to property <'some node name'> on class 'XML' (class is not an IEventDispatcher)
This is with Flexbuilder 3.2, Eclipse 3.3.2.I am moving my development environment to a new machine. Actionscript classes that compiled in the old environment now get a compile error:
A file found in a source-path must have an externally visible definition. If a definition in the file is meant to be externally visible, please put the definition in a package.I do declare the package in these classes - I think failure to declare the package is the usual reason for this error.To add to the mystery, many classes in this project compile without errors.
I did suppress warnings in flex compiler using "-show-binding-warnings=false". But what I am interested to achieve is to suppress run time warnings (especially binding warnings - since I am getting data in model mostly in XML structures and it is fine for me if its unable to bind to its nested child nodes) in console (I am working on flex on Eclipse with the flex plug in). Is there a way to achieve it?
View 1 RepliesI use FDT for my flex programming and there are some warnings that I want to suppress.for example:Private function is never used. Found 'list_ itemRendererFunc' at line foo column bar.I actually paste this function name as a string to a datagroup's itemRendererFunction property. how do I mark this line that will not show the warning?
View 1 RepliesI'd really like to use this package in Flash as3:[URL]... I've copied the source and saved it as a file called MP3Loop.as. In the same folder I have a .fla with some code in it like this:
var looper:MP3Loop = new MP3Loop(); So far as I can see this should be all I need to have a play with the package, but it doesn't seem to work. Instead I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at MP3Loop/initUI() at MP3Loop() at loop_test_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

Eclipse has a built in functionality to find unused variables (and methods too I guess). Flash Builder 4 is built on top of Eclipse but it doens't have that functionality. Do you know any plugin to achieve that functionality? Also, if you know any other kind of plugin besides SourceMate to improve Flash Builder let me know.

The added movie clip is not displaying at all? I've ported the code over to frame 1 of the timeline and it is not showing up either.
I have x amount of classes in a package eg. "com.trevorboyle.lotsofclasses" and I keep adding more (These classes will probably all be static and will probably all extend the same class).I wish to create a drop-down list of all these classes, preferably without having to manually create an array myself.
Once a class is selected from the list, I'll be able to use getDefinitionByName to return it, because I will know it's name at this point.The question is, as I believe there is no support in AS3 to list all the classes in a specific package, is there a design pattern that handles this?

View 2 RepliesI have been able to create a loop that loads it's from an XML list. What I'd like to do now is have a link stored so that when I click on an item in the list, it adds the appropriate text to the description text box. Presently I only have this scripted to trace but it populates with the last description in the list only. How can i assign a link to each item in the list?

View 1 RepliesIn Flash Professional CS4, I get "migration issue" warnings when I use mouse/keyboard input handler names such as onMouseDown, onKeyUp, etc., even though I have added event listeners for them. These names are perfectly legal for functions, but since these were automatically fired in ActionScript 2.0, we are now (albeit sensibly) warned that their use is no longer automatic in AS3.I understand the purpose of the warnings, but they aren't useful for me. I want to suppress these warnings, but without suppressing any other warnings, which I generally do find useful.I found a flex-info.xml style document in the Flash User Data dir.[userdatafolder]/Adobe/Flash CS4/en/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/FlexInfo.xml.However, this file contains a disappointing comment: <!-- Flash does not support most flex-config options. -->, and doesn't seem to respond to my directives even after restarting flash. Found an issue "Erroneous, annoying "Migration issue" warnings" on Adobe bug tracker. A fix is confirmed for the Flex SDK, but no mention of Flash...

I've migrated to FDT from flashdevelop and kind of have a hard time getting things to work the way I'm used to. In Flashdevelop, you could easily choose if the compiled swf was a release or debug version. In FDT however, it seems like there is no way to compile a version that has debugging information without it automatically opening up the debug perspective with a ton of debug windows, a profiler and actually entering debug mode.
As an extra plus, I keep getting a message saying "This feature is only available in FDT Max", although from what I know the debugger is included in the free version. Is there a way to do what I'm trying to do or should I just get used to this new way of working?
What's the simplest way to see where warnings and errors come from, on vizzy?
Here's a few instances I see on my mac. Quite different from the screenshots we can see on its wiki:
Warning: 'flash' has no property 'prototype'
Warning: 'StageVideo' has no property 'prototype'
Warning: 'AsBroadcaster' has no property 'addListener'
Warning: 'AsBroadcaster' has no property 'removeListener'
Warning: 'flash' has no property 'prototype'
[Code]...
I can now see VizzyTrace.swc is required for many vizzy functionality. But even after considering all that (and enabling debug flag on the FLA, replacing trace for trc, setting up the "extra options" and adding the SWC) I still see nothing.
Now every trc line is prepended with an almost useless (I can control traces just all right and easily induce where they came from) file name and line number under Flash Professional's own output when I "Test Movie" but not even then will Vizzy show those lines. Not to say after the SWF is compiled and I'm tracing on the browser.
I've been play around with Clippy and I having problems configuring it without compiling it myself.I noticed on Github that they use use Clippy for repo urls but when you mouse over it it doesn't show the standard "Copy to clipboard" text. With the design I am working at at the moment I would really like to emulate this but can't seem to work out how they've done it. Looking at the Github source the swf they use also shows the text on mouse over so I assume they haven't customised the Clippy swf itself.Does anyone who has used clippy before know what trick they might use?

View 1 RepliesI am creating a simple game for kids. On the first page, I added an "input text" field for their first name. I called the variable firstname.When they move to the next page, I used a "dyanamic text" field so I can call them by name on this page. It works. However, When I test the game, on the first page, where the firstname is input, it shows_level0.firstname instead of just a blank space for them to input their name. I know I fixed this in the past and it was something simple, but I can't remember how to do it

View 6 RepliesI'm running into this weird thing with ASDoc. It will only document one package function per package.For example.I have these two functions:
gs.util.printf
gs.util.ftrace
In these files:
gs/util/printf.as
gs/util/ftrace.as
The only function that get's documented in ASDocs is "printf". But I know it can do more than one. As an example, in the livedocs [URL] There are more than one functions documented.
I am very new to Flash and I am making a little 30 second clip just to fool around with Flash.Now at the end of my film I just want everything to stop (if possible, once a specific frame is hit move to another frame.)I've heard that you could use ActionScript to perform this but I really have no clue

also this is not all my coding im just learning off of it to create my own project... What coding would i use to tell the mc to stop scrolling once it reaches a certain x coordinate? for example x=0 (left side of stage) or x= -484 which is when right side of picture is at right side of stage... and can i setup math for it to automatically determine the correct x coordinate (based off mc width) to stop at?? if there is easier scripting to do the same....fill me in
oh and x is off of the stage typically...this is panoramic pics im scrolling

How to add Flex to eclipse IDE
View 1 RepliesI am looking into using FDT (I currently use FB4), downloaded the free eclipse plugin, version 5.0, and configured it. I was trying to figure out how to compile a css to a swf file with it. This is super simple in Flash Builder, e.g. right click the css file and choose Compile CSS to SWF. I looked around and there is info on doing it via command line etc. Is there a way to do this in FDT eclipse plugin?
