Hi guys,
I am getting memory problems when I remove and recreate all my objects
several times (the flash player eats up RAM, and I have to minimize it
and maximize to force the garbage collector).There must be something
wrong in the way I destroy my objects :-(
So I am wondering what is the best way to handle event listeners and to
be able to remove the listeners afterwards in order to avoid memory waste...
I've seen on some page that using Delegate (or Lott's Proxy class) is a
good practice, but how do you properly remove the listener when you're
done with the object ?
For example in class A (see below), how do you remove "this" from
listening to every elements' "myevent" event in the destroy() method ?
Thanks!
Julien
public classA extends MovieClip {
public function addElement(data:Object):Void {
var elt:CustomMC = attachMovie("Test", "test"+data.id,
getNextHighestDepth());
elt.addEventListener("myevent", Delegate.create(this,
this.onMyEvent));
elements[data.id] = elt;
}
public function destroy():Void {
for(var i:String in elements){
var elt:CustomMC = elements[i];
// remove listener object... ???
elt.removeMovieClip();
elements[i] = null;
}
}
private function onMyEvent(event:Object):Void {
// handle the event...
}
}
