I want this class to exist independently of any onRelease functions which
have been assigned directly to movieclip instances.
i.e. I don't want to have to include a call to my class in the onRelease
function of every movieclip instance - I just want my class to listen for
any onRelease events, and then do some action depending on which clip was
clicked.
The idea is that I could then include this class in movies which have
already been created without having to go back through and add a call to my
class into every button and movieclip onRelease function.
On www.mosessupposes.com I have found this CallbackDispatcher.
Link to the Class: http://www.mosessupposes.com/2005/CallbackDispatcher.zip
Here's a example how it works:
CallbackDispatcher.initialize(my_mc);
my_mc.addEventListener ('onRollOver', this);
function onRollOver(o:Object) {
trace('rollover for '+o.target+' captured in scope: '+this);
}
Here's the copied text of the entry:
Often when I'm writing classes if there is some simple clip that I'm
only using callbacks from, like onPress, I end up writing references and
callback functions onto it, which is kinda tacky.
Use this class like EventDispatcher to be able to addEventListener on
any built-in callback. Works with MCs, TextFields, and Buttons, and
includes multiple-simultaneous add/remove methods. Examples included!
Hope that helps.
