Hey all,
Some of you may remember my problems with visually mapping streaming data
before. I ended up needing them as separate clips to provide individual
roll-over support with the ability to add links in a future revision.
Well, now that I have it performing better, I'm breaking down the
information into intervals of 1 minute "bursts". What I'm trying to do is
use setInterval to have it pull the data once per minute.
The problem is, when I use setInterval as documented, it waits the first
minute, does its thing, but then it ignores the interval after that,
pulling the data every time that frame comes up.
Here's the relevant bit of code:
function intervalLoop() {
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.load("wddx.php");
xmlData.onLoad = function () {
wddx = new Wddx();
_root.wddxObj = wddx.deserialize(this);
delete(xmlData);
}
for (j=0; j < _root.lines.length; j++) {
trace("Deleting clip: " + _root.lines[j]["pen"]._name);
_root.lines[j]["pen"].removeMovieClip();
delete(_root.lines[j]["pen"]);
delete(_root.lines[j]["timestamp"]);
_root.lines.splice(j,1);
}
for (var i in _root.wddxObj) {
_root.counter++;
date_now = new Date();
pen = createEmptyMovieClip("curve_" + i + "_mc", 2 +
_root.counter);
trace("Added clip: " + pen._name);
pen.lineStyle(1.5,0xFF6600);
container = {pen: pen, timestamp: date_now};
_root.lines.push(container);
dest_long = _root.wddxObj[i]["long"];
dest_lat = _root.wddxObj[i]["lat"];
site = _root.wddxObj[i]["site"];
src_long = _root.locations[site]["long"];
src_lat = _root.locations[site]["lat"];
curvePoint(pen, src_long, src_lat, dest_long, dest_lat);
}
}
setInterval(intervalLoop, 60000);
Thanks,
