Sql :: Flash - Make Function Wait To Return After GetResult From SQL Statement Is Available?
Feb 17, 2012
I'm just trying to make a simple function that will return all the data from my SQLITE database as an array. But it looks like when my function is returning the array, the SQL statement is actually still executing... so it's empty... Does anyone have a suggestion? Or am I just going about this whole thing wrong.I know I could just have the event listener functions outside this function, and they could then set the data. But i'm trying to make a AS3 Class that holds all my SQL functions, and It would be nice to have everything for this particular function just in one function, so it can return an array to me.
public function getFavsGamesArray():Array
{
getFavsArraySql.addEventListener(SQLEvent.RESULT, res);
I am trying to write functions as efficient and reusable as possible. One function in particular I wrote was designed to easily create new objects from externally loaded files. The problem I have is that I can't think of a way to make the function wait for an event listener to complete before returning the desired object. Here is what I have so far and I will point out where the problem is.
Code:
var myNewObj:Object = loadFile(parentName, "swfs/" , "file.swf"); function loadFile(parentObj:Object, urlLocation:String, fileName:String):Object{ var fileLoader:Loader = new Loader();
I'm developing an AIR app that requires a menu to show only during the first run. In it the user will be able to choose the desired language for the app to run in.
I'm displaying this menu without a problem but I need it to stay visible until the "select language" comboBox is changed and then return the selected choice's data value.
how to return a value only after the combo box is changed.
function promptFRMenu():String{ FRMenu.enabled = FRMenu.visible = true; //when I detect the app is running for the // first time, the dialog box is enabled
What i want to do, is, make it wait before it the timeline goes to the certain frame#, so the image_loader1 loads its image1. I'm making it wait, not because it takes time loading (which it would not, since image1 is already on the stage, loaded up in image_loader2) but the image still takes time to show on the image_loader1 (half a second).So, I want my_btn to be functioned like this that it performs its first action which is
'image_loader1.loadMovie("imagepath");' and then 'gotoAndPlay(frame#);'..
I'm having some troubles with the use of interface and inheritance in AS3. I've done lots of OOP in the past and what I'm trying to do seems obvious to me, but doesn't work in AS3. The question is : Is it possible to override a function that return an Object of class A, and make it return an Object of Class B which extends A ? It seems not to be possible, since I'm getting a signature error in Flash, when compiling. For example, the following set of class do not compile (the code in function definition doesn't matter):
I am still working to fix a FIRED developers code he left us with. The code in question goes out and request information from a database, places it into arrays and also checks session. THis is what I think it should be doing. I am getting a bunch of undefined returns ( prints out in the assigned text fields). Is there a way to make Flash WAIT until all the data has been retrieved from the database. This is out first theory.
I made a server connection with AC3 and C, I need the client(AC3) to be able to send a 3 byte message to the server (C) and have the server return a resopnse. So far everything works except for the fact that the feedback isn't fast enough becuase AC3 just tests for data once and moves on instead of waiting like in C. I'm using a binary socket at the moment but I was wondering if there was any way to wait for new data before moving on
I just want a function to return true, but after a LoadVars.onLoad.event. Am I right in assuuming that the return in the onLoad = function below relates ONLY to that function? What I want is for the sendLockCheck()to return true depending on the if statement within the onLoad.
function sendLockCheck() { var lockCheckResult_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); var lockCheckSend_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code].....
I'm trying to make a custom ConfirmBox.I have this movie clip: http:[url].....and I'm trying to make a function confirm() which return a boolean value.Obviously true when the user press "SI" and false when he press "NO:.Something like this:
ActionScript Code: public function confirm(msg:String):Boolean [code]....
I am trying to have the function toggleClick return powerData. I need to store powerData in a variable and have it passed to another function to do calculations.
Inside the function toggleClick, I am assigning powerData to houseArray[e.currentTarget.name.toLowerCase()];
var powerData:int = houseArray[e.currentTarget.name.toLowerCase()];
I tried just to write return powerData--but it breaks the program.
// function toggleClick function toggleClick(e:MouseEvent) { // Store "Power" Values of House Objects in Array
I have one function "Login" and function "_urlSended" inside of function "Login". So i want that sub function returned value as a parent function. I just want that script to work
<![CDATA[ function onButton1click():void { Label1.text = Login('irakli', 'password1');
I feel like this should be correct but the trace always returns 'undefined'
PHP Code:
function loadXML(xmlFile:String):XML{ var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); var xmlData = new XML(xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest(xmlFile))); return xmlData;}var xmlData:XML = loadXML("xml/nav.xml"); trace(xmlData.link.image.text() [0]);
I have a actionscript file and it tells a function in another actionscript file to run.How can I add an event listener to wait for the function to complete in an external file.
I'm using this function function wait(mc, n) { mc.stop(); var myInterval = setInterval(function () { mc.play(); clearInterval(myInterval); }, 3 * 1000); } _root.wait(this, n)
To delay events along my timeline. That code works fine. My problem is that is that I also want the user to be able to pause the movie at any time. However, if the pause button I'm using is pressed by the user while the timeline is delayed using this function it starts playing again after the interval even if the pause button is still pressed. How can I override this wait function with a pause button?
I just want to have my code wait a couple seconds to let some scripted animation finish then load a movie into a holder but I can't seem to find a pause/wait/delay function is there one and how would I use it or can someone tell me how to do it somehow thats not too processor intense if at all possible.
I'm rather new to AS3 and have been tasked with a project, the project requires reading in values from an XML file created by PHP, this works fine if the XML file is available, and is just being updated by PHP, however, when flash calls the PHP page that creates the XML file for the first time, it doesn't give PHP enough time to make the XML file.
I'm using an AMF service that was built by someone else. Basically what happens is that some info is passed to the AMF service and it returns true or false.I want to be able to pass in various info to the a function that calls the AMF service(submitTracking) and then get the true or false value returned in onResultSubmit to be passed back to submitTracking.
var screen:String; var buttonnumber:String; function submitTracking(screen:String, buttonnumber:String) {
Anyway, I have a function that goes through an XML file, looking for a specific value. If it finds it, it should return the node that contains that value. However, I'm having trouble with the whole return part of it.My code is:
I'm communicating to these movie clips with another program via binary sockets.For the first set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will jump to the frame corresponding with that number. for ex:if the incoming data from the socket is (mc7+3), then movieclip 7 will jump to frame 3.
For the second set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will move location across the screen, by the y coordinate moving to the # given by the socket...thats a little confusing. for ex: if the incoming data from the socket is (mc4+500), then movieclip 4 will move so that it's y coordinate is at 500.[code]...
