Thanks for all your helps.
The Delegate class makes it works like a charm...

On the other hand the self referencing is not working.

Would it work that way (The Delegate class "solution") is an other OOP
language like Java or C++ ?

I never have a use for self refencing.. maybe thats just me, feels like a dirty hack.

Just create reference to your class. You will need that a lot ...


function connect ()

{

                mySocket = new XMLSocket ();
                        var _obj = this;

                mySocket.onXML = function ()
                        {
                                _obj.handleIncoming();
                      }
}

Hi,

The problem here is scope. When you call parseMessages, you doing it in
the
scope of the mySocket object (where the method doesn't exist.)
There's a pretty simple workaround for this using the Delegate utility
that
comes with Flash.

At the top of your class file, do this : import mx.utils.Delegate;

Change this line: mySocket.onXML = handleIncoming;
To this: mySocket.onXML = Delegate.create(this,handleIncoming);

And that should solve your problem. Basically you're creating a proxy
function on the XMLSocket object that then invokes the handleIncoming
function on your OSC object. There are other ways to do this, but I
think
the Delegate method is generally considered the best practice.

Hope that helps,

Jim

Hi,



Here is a OOP newbie question.



I have a class (see below)..



Everything works fine. but the method "handleIncoming" can not access ()
or
maybe even find) the method "parseMessages".

If I give the complete path to the instance of the OSC class (made in my
fla
- for example "_root.OSC_Obj.parseMessages (xmlIn);" ) it works.



How should I code this to make it works ?





class OSC

{



          var mySocket : XMLSocket;

//

//

          public function OSC ()

          {

                      connect ();

          }

          //

          //

          function connect ()

          {

                      mySocket = new XMLSocket ();

                      mySocket.onXML = handleIncoming;

          }

//

//

          function handleIncoming (xmlIn)

          {

                      parseMessages (xmlIn);



          }

//

          function parseMessages (node)

          {

actions......

}

}



Thanks for your attention,
