So basically I have a component with my event dispatched[code]...
So problem is with my static function's showConfirmation handler, if I go through debug, it just skips that function and continues doing myDispatchedEvent. Why doesn't anonymous function inside showConfirmation function execute?
I am developing an lib which tracks user events, like button click, state change, module load and application finish.
My problem is how I can track the application finish event. I googled for it, but I found no good answer.
Use Flash CS5 (and AIR, though this does not seem like it would be AIR related) in Win XP 64 I have a MovieClip symbol in my library with the identifier 'Puzzle10Piece10' with the following actionscript attached to frame 1 of the only layer with the following actionscript:
[Code]...
This runs contrary to my understanding of the pre-compiler and code execution order. In my way of thinking, any reference creation and related memory allocation is made when the object is instantiated, and indeed that allocation, unlike C depends not on code order (declaration before use), though this is an order that would satisfy even the C pre-compiler. If I understand the Flash compiler at all, it's not even a question of 'code order'... the symbol is pre-compiled such that for it to exist... for it to be instantiated, the variable would exist before the function would even be 'available' to be called internally or externally. Is my thinking way off, or is this a bug?
Is it possible to change the speed of execution of a movieClip? Maybe the frame rate?
View 6 RepliesI am having a problem cancelling the execution of a function. When I click on the first of my navigation buttons, I have a fade in tween and an image loader load an external image. If I click on the second navigation button befiore the function for the 1st button finishes, the 1st tween and image loader continue to finish while the tween and image loader function for the 2nd navigation button starts. Essentially, there is an overlap. Is there a way to tell the 2nd navigation button to stop all other functions before it starts its own function? I suspect it has something to do with stopImmediatePropagation, but I am unsure of how to put this into the function.

View 6 RepliesOk, a simple situation: say I have five fairly complicated functions on one frame. I define all my functions, what they do, etc. After all that, I call all five functions in a row like
functionOne();

Is it possible in Flash to set a hyperlink (in a textField), and then have that link run a function within Flash (not Javascript)?I know one can easily launch a URL via a text link, or even run a Javascript function, but what about a function in Flash?
View 2 Replieserror in my movie clip. The code is working just fine. The effects are just what I needed. I have a set of 24 buttons, executing 24 URLs when clicked. buttons are responding on rollover, onRollout and onRelease states.But the problem is when I click the butoons randomly and very fast, multiple buttons remins in onRelease state (as if more than one button has been selected). I do not undetastand wheather this a problem with my coding or problem with my settinf in flash or a bug in flash itself (i'm too small to detect a bug in flash though!!). My setting are: actionscript 1. fps 30.

Is there any way to halt execution in ActionScript, such as a sleep() method? I know that there is a setTimeout() method, but setTimeout() just sets up an event for deferred execution.

View 2 RepliesI am building a Flex and PHP application in which I am providing users a Save results option, which will invoke the php service that generates the results file. I then have the FileReference.download (url) function with the url of the file generated. Problem here is the popup to save comes before the file is even generated in the server. So user will get the incomplete file as the file generation will take atleast 10-15 seconds.
printToFile.token = customerTyped.printToFile(customerArray,displayno);
var filepath:String= "[URL]"+displayno+".txt";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filepath);
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();
fileRef.download(request);**
I think the function(service) call to PHP function
customerTyped.printToFile(customerArray,displayno);
does not wait for it to return and continues to execute the next statements asynchronously. How do I make the download dialog to wait from popping up until the printToFile php function is completed?
I have been trying to understand the way ActionScript's events are implemented, but I'm stuck.I know that AS is single threaded, which means that only one event handler will be executing at a time, and also means that handlers will be executed in a deterministic order*.For example, consider the following code:
1: var x = {executed: false};
2: foo.addEventListener("execute", function(){ x.executed = true; });
3: foo.dispatchEvent(new Event("execute"));

I'm going to be using Flex 4 with Spring and Hibernate.Everything is configured and working. I know this as I can do simple queries, like listing all values in a table.Problem is when I try to perform a 'select' query, then I get all the values, as I was getting before, and not the specific attributes through Select query.I'm a beginner, so kindly overlook my lack of more technically sound words..but I don use them as I don wanna mis-quote.This is class used to store data coming from the MySQL database--
package flex;
import java.io.Serializable;

Is there a way to measure the average time it takes my code to run and each frame to render for my Flex app? More specifically, I know how to use getTimer() but I'm not sure about which events I should listen to in order to do this. I was reading this post and am not sure how you'd figure out how long the actual rendering took (it would seem like it may be the time between the RENDER event fires and the next ENTER_FRAME event fires, but I'm not sure). Also, not exactly sure where the user code happens, or whether I should care about EXIT_FRAME and FRAME_CONSTRUCTED. [code]...

i have a datagrid which contained several items,when i click one row, a panel will show,however, if i have already selected one row and then click some blank place, this panel will also show because there is already a selecteditem,which will be a problem. Then i change this click event to change event, however, there will be another problem, which is if i click the same row, nothing will happend. so is there any better idea when i click a row, a panel shows and when i click the blank place, nothing happened.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a project where we use Flex, Spring, Hibernate and Blazeds,all working on a Weblogic server.Everything works fine and we call services at the server side from the flex app without problems,but now we need to limit the time who spent the execution of the services to 2 seconds, if any service takes more than 2 seconds the server must return a timeout to the flex app.I've been searching for a way to do this with the blazeds configuration, but it looks that it's not possible.Is there any way to achieve this? I've thought in add a filter to the blazeds requests so it can control the timeout... But I can't find any example and I don't have enough knowledge of filter.
View 1 RepliesI am learning Flex and trying to make a simple RPG to practice. I am using view states to change between screens. right now I have a HomeView.mxml which displays my character information, InventoryView.mxml which shows my inventory items, and EquipmentView.mxml which shows the equipped items. They each have their respective view states.
in my main mxml file, i create a global variable for the character and an ArrayCollection of items in the game. it creates 2 labels in mxml for Inventory and Equipment and when i click on the label it calls a click handler which sets currentState="EquipmentView" or "InventoryView" This works and the state changes and the respective views are shown properly. My problem is in my EquipmentView state. When i enter the state the first time, it has a creationComplete function which displays images for my equipment and sets a click handler. when i click the item, it "unequips" it and removes it from the equipment list and removes the image. this also works fine, but when I go to my inventory view and "equip" an item and return to the EquipmentView, the image does not show. I have a label which counts the length of my equipmentList variable and that is accurate when i switch views, but i cant get the image to display again. Is there a way to call my displayEquippedItems() function (which is originally called on creationComplete) when the view is changed?

(Flex 3) I have a TextArea component which needs to hold the user's clipboard content. The TextArea does the job relatively well for most cases but when pasting a large amount of data, I can't seem to get the content in the component at all due to the script execution timeout.
I've done a fair deal on investigation to try and hopefully find how I could make this work. I found that the TextArea is using a IUITextField (which is in my case an instance of TextField at runtime) do handle the job of obtaining the pasting data and then throws an event when it is done.
I have found no way to take a look at the source of TextField as it is a class in the playerglobal.swc library.
Is there a way for me to maybe see the source of that class or is there something I'm missing in my approach to figure out a way to make this work?

I have a basic mouseover in my flex application which changes an image onmouseover and changes it back onmouseout using the code mouse Over "functionToChangeImageSource()" and another one to mouseout.It works fine when you slowly mouse over and out, however if I quickly move the mouse over it, it occasionally stays on the mouseover image and the mouseout function doesnt appear to kick in. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or does anyone have any ideas why its happening?Also, I've tried the rollOver and rollOut instead but it has the same problem.[code]I'd imagine you're correct about the mouseover event not completing before mouseout is but how to I fix this?
View 3 RepliesI am displaying a combo box in something of a WYSIWYG preview. I want the user to be able to click on the combo box and see the options inside, but I don't want them to be able to change the value. I tried using preventDefault() on the change event but it doesn't work. I don't want to disable it because I do want the user to be able to "look inside" the dropdown.
So I'm trying to block the change, but can't. My next resort is to change the selected index back to what it was before the change, Is there any way to do this within the scope of a ListEvent.CHANGE event listener?
Current Workaround is to basically re-assign the controls selected item the same way I am defining the selected item when I originally build it (a default selection). So a user sees their change then it immediately changes back to the default selection.
w a website recently,I am curious about the 3D execution with XML generation. Does anyone know how this can be achieved.
