Flex :: Object Reference Through Variable Value?
Dec 29, 2011
Is it possible to reference an object using a variable value?
For example, I have a function that is supposed to hide an image and add that image to an inventory list when the item is clicked.
All the image info is stored in an object (name, imgSource, visible, x, y);
I was thinking I could do something like this:
<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
public var item:Object = new Object();
[Code].....
I want "item" to stand for knife so that I could change knife.visible, knife.xPos, ect.

i'm referencing variable names and object names dynamically such as:[code]i have 5 balls (insert joke here) which get all the same functions etc so i wanted a way to avoid making 5x functions to handle each one of the balls. Now one function can handle all 5, etc.what i can't figure out is how to use this same set up to reference a variable or object name inside another movieclip. if i have another movieclip named "myParent" for example, i thought i could refer to it with:[code]but this doesn't work.

Basically I have 2 classes, A and B. B derives from A. Inside A, I declare a static variable/constant to the class of B. When I run the program, I get a null object reference error, with the line pointing to the class declaration of B, i.e.
Code:
public class B extends A
For reference, these are the 2 classes:
Code:
package
{
public class A
{
[code]...
Also, this error only occurs when the variable is static. If it's just a normal variable it works fine, i.e.
Code:
private var OTHER:Class = B;
If I change the static variable to point to a different class, it's also fine, i.e.
Code:
private static var OTHER:Class = Main;
I can probably work around this, but it's a bit of a pain in the ass. Anybody know what's causing it, or is this a Flash bug?

I'm looking to build a library that needs to be very careful about memory management. Basically, I have to create a static factory to "disperse" instances of my tool to requesting objects. (I don't have a choice in this matter, I really do have to use a singleton) We'll call that class FooFactory. FooFactory defines a single method, getFoo(key:String):Foo.
getFoo looks in a private static flash.utils.Dictionary object for the appropriate Foo instance, and either lazy-instantiates it, or simply returns it. In any case, FooFactory MUST keep a reference to each Foo instance created, so all Foo instances can be updated by FooFactory using a method called updateFoos():void.

I have function init, which runs on the creationComplete of the application. The init calls get_login_share_object funtion, in which objects are created, which are null.
Now my problem is that, I get a null object reference error on the Alert in "init()". How can I avoid that. Is it possible that I can have a check to see, if the objects are null the program should just skip reading the objects.
private function init():void
{
var stored_credentials:Object = get_login_share_object();

Simple to understand problem, hoping for similarly easy solution:When I type in my search query, I sometimes get the "Error #1009 Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference" on the dataField = new ArrayCollection(result.data); line.

Now when I try to do something with my button I get the error mentioned. I am assuming maybe it has not loaded yet?

I have a flex application which use DragManager.When I'm loading this application into flash application and trying to use drag'n'drop functions - I get an error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at mx.managers::CursorManagerImpl/showCurrentCursor()
at mx.managers::CursorManagerImpl/setCursor()

But, when I simply run a flex application (not loding it into a flash one) everything works properly.

I'm new to flex and actionscript. I'm trying to create a small flex app that has multiple states, but if I have nested containers, it looks like some of the objects are not getting initialized when I expected them to be, even when I have the creationPolicy set to "all."I've reduced the issue to a small example, with a commented block showing when it does work.sing the existing code, I get this error: "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at main/init()" and the event handlers are not installed.If I instead use the commented block, which has the Panel and VBox elements removed, it does work.I know I could add a click attribute to the mxml elements, but this is just a simplified example, and I'm more interested knowing why the objects are not initialized when the app loads.
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"

Here is my main code:
[Code]....
I run my code, it will give me a "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference" error. I double checked, I realized when the program run until the component file up to the accessing dataGridData variable, that dataGridData variable is null at that time. That is probably flex initiate the component file before it send or get the xml data from server in main. Which cause the variable is still null at the mean time.

I have this custom class which extends EventDispatcher
private var assetsManager:AssetManager;
And this running on creationComplete
GeneralUtils.parentComponent = this;
this.assetsManager.addEventListener(AssetEvent.ASSETS_LOADED,OnAssetsLoaded);
this.LoadConfigFile();
I'm getting 1009 errors on the second line. I've been looking at this for a while and can't figure out what it can't find. The OnAssetsLoaded function is there.

I need to create variable object property names for use with the data grid component.
This works: data = new Object(); data.some_name = "the data";
But this does not: data = new Object(); colName = "some_name"; data[colName] = "the data";
