Java :: Loader Object Will Be Garbage Collected And LoadCompleteHandler() Will Never Be Called?
Nov 2, 2010
Consider the following segment of code:
[Code]...
Do not worry about the syntax of this code. Here is my concern - The loader object which is used to send the HTTP request and which has the onLoadComplete event registered to is not referenced from outside the loadSomeContent() function. Is there a possibility that the loader object will be garbage collected and loadCompleteHandler() will never be called?

can a loader get removed (garbage collected) whilst its still loading? does it have to be added to the stage or to an array?

I just noticed a strange behaviour while looking at my application in the Flash Profiler. When I click a button in my TitleWindow then the TitleWindow doesn't get garbage collected after it is removed. I have no idea why that is happening.[code]...

I have checked and rechecked, and I do not know why these "buckets" aren't being killed when I run the reset menu function, a fresh set of eyes could really help.
Code:
package com.Views {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code]...
i'm sure there are a lot of problems, but the only one I care about is destroying those buckets. inside the buckets, I have a listener for "removed from stage", and that kills all the listeners, etc, inside the buckets.

there is a Class A, it has a timer which updates its x position periodically. So all the instance of Class A will update their own x position. There is another Class B which extends Class A and overrides the function which updates position to change y position and call the trace function.
Now what I do now is create two instance alpha1, alpha2 of Class A and other two instance beta1, beta2 of Class B.
- alpha1 is only instantiated, but not added to the stage.
- alpha2 is instantiated, and there after added to the stage.
- beta1 is only instantiated, but not added to the stage.
- beta2 is instantiated, and there after added to the stage.
- let say after few seconds, I remove alpha2 and beta2 from stage.
Now suppose the GC fires collection, who all would be collected ?

I have that function in the class:
private function fireItemCreated(data: ByteArray): void {
setTimeout(function(): void {
var event: ItemCreatedEvent = new ItemCreatedEvent(data);
dispatchEvent(event);
}, 1000);
}
This function called to dispatch item created event when image thumbnail created.But it delays event on some time to prevent user interface freezes. And I'm guessing what could be happen if garbage collector executes after fireItemCreated function call but before timer event. Does the closure will be removed or it stays until it will be executed?

I'm trying to set up a test that will tell me whether a variable exists in memory or not. I'm running into the problem of my nested function preserving the local variable it uses, called "shouldBeDead". Here's my best effort, which doesn't work for me because the "shouldBeDead" variable is still alive[code]...

I recently posted on here about tweening in alphas of thumbnails that I was adding to a movieclip. It seems that the tween is getting garbage collected because not all of the thumbs fade in all the way. I have the tween defined outside of the function, but it is tweening a loader that is created within the function. Could this cause the tween to get garbage collected? if so, how do I fix it?
Here is the pertinent code:
var thumbTween:Tween;
var my_thumb:Loader;
function thumbLoaded(e:Event):void{

I have had a few complications with syncing the notes coming down, then I realized tweens would be the best way to go, so I chose them.The problem is; the notes come down the screen. If there is any lag in performance, any note that is on the screen freezes on the spot, and the new notes come down, and stay in sync.This is telling me it's something to do with the tweens. The timeOuts I have set work fine for spawning notes at the right time, but the tweens are freezing on occasion, Im guessing because the timer for the tween keeps going, but flash does not notice it.Here is the code for adding the notes:
Code:
var myTween:Tween;
var timeWindow = 1;

I'd like to know for sure that my objects are deleted when I 'null' them and remove listeners etc..
I'm not sure if the debugger in CS4 has a way to display that kind of info. Is there some other way?

I think I'm still trying to understand Dependency Injection and the role of the DI container. If DI means a lower level component depends on a higher level one, and there's no circular reference, won't that object get garbage collected? As I see garbage collection (mark-and-sweep), it keeps only the objects that can be traced with a chain of references starting from the program root.
Since I'm having difficulty explaining myself, here are two UML diagrams, which present conflicting views of Dependency Injection, as I see it: My original interpretation of DI
The DI Container injects components with their required references, and they each store a reference to their next-highest-in-command. The Main class has no way of reaching them, so they should be garbage collected. My reconsideration of DI The DI Container injects components with their required references and also maintains a reference to each of them. They each store a reference to their next-highest-in-command. The Main class can reach any of them via the DI Container, so they shouldn't be garbage collected.

I tried with flex and java in the backend. In this, I am able to upload files till 100 MB using remote object (blazeDs) where we will read the file as byte array and send it to the java method. If the file size exceeds after that, then I get the run time error in IE.

So, I'm trying to load resources, add them to a dictionary, and have a drawing method search through that dictionary and draw based on certain predicates. I have a function that iterates through an Vector of Strings, calling on an instance of Loader to load them instantiated as a URLRequest.
private function loadImages(urls:Vector.<String>):void
{
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
[Code].....
So the issue is: Only the first images in my Vector are drawing. Upon further inspection, I found that the completeHandler was only being called once (I put a trace in the complete handler to check). However, the Loader is invoking load everytime the loop iterates. I tried instantiating separate loaders for each resource, just to see if it would work, but I had no luck with that. Do I need to make separate loaders and event handlers? Or am I just not using Loader correctly?

I'm struggling a bit to fully understand garbage collection. To be honest I don't understand why this just can't be taken care of automatically but hey - I'm not a programmer so what do I know... Now to my question - I have the following code:
Code:
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.letterSpacing = -3.5;
huvud_txt.setTextFormat(format);
Is it enough to set format = null; to destroy the format object or is there some crossreference going on here so that I need to do something more? huvud_txt is a textfield on stage - it's not created with code...

I'm trying to get my head around optimising AS3 code and clearing things out for garbage collection.
I understand that each time an item is referred to in the code it has its reference count increased by one, so I was wondering if there is a trace option I can use to see how many references each of my objects has?
I can then see where things are getting left behind (if they are) and where I can make optimise better.
I think it would help me work out several issues if I was able to do this

ActionScript Code:
var clip:Sprite = new Sprite();
clip.name = "clip"
addChild(clip);
cleanup(clip)
function cleanup(mc):void {
mc.parent.removeChild(mc);
mc = null
trace(clip)
// clip is removed from stage but traces as [object Sprite]. It still exists!
}
How would I pass a MovieClip/Sprite/TextField through this function and remove it entirely?

I have been working on a flex application with java, as i have used Life Cycle Data Service for communication, i wana know, is there any function of flex, where i can see the loading status in percentage, that how much record is being loaded.Problem is, if there is lengthy record, no body comes to know, whats happening with software, like in Comboboxes or Grids, users usually think it as a BUG in application, but ofcourse it is not.I need such graphical loader, which keeps on loading with proper status in percentage, until it receives all data from JAVA (SQL Server).

So I have this Photo class than handles loading a pic, and dispatches an event when the loading is done with:[code]which is simple and works, but now I'd like to make something more advanced. I'd like to dispatch the load ratio.So far I have extended the Event class, with my own EventRatio class, and I can put properties on that class. Which is cool, but I need something more dynamic than just sending a fixed value.So, what is the best way to connect the Loader object of the Photo object, with the EventRatio object?

I am making a 24/7 kiosk app and am noticing that the "pages" I load from the library using the above technique continually increases the memory usage (using Monster Debugger 3 and testing the SWF from within Flash Pro CS5 on a Mac.)
As I understand it "myVar" are the only references to each "SomeObject" object that gets instantiated. Shouldn't the fact that myVar is local mean that SomeObject should be available for garbage collection after each new page is loaded?
