To recusively dump your complex object you might use:
function traceProperties(object : Object, depth : uint = 0) : void {
for (var prop : String in object) {
trace (prefix(depth), prop, object[prop]);
if (object[prop] is Object) traceProperties(object[prop], depth + 1);
}
function prefix(depth : uint) : String {
var prefix : String = "";
for (var i : uint = 0; i < depth; i++) prefix += "....";
return prefix;
}
}
Anyway, there is also an error in createProperties. Look at the attached
test file to compare with my fixes. Hope the list allows me to pass files.
map [object Object]
....classes [object Object]
........class2 [object Object]
............value RA02
............areaColor 0xFFFFFF
............keyText Noord-Nederland2
........class1 [object Object]
............value RA01
............areaColor 0xEBDBAA
............keyText Noord-Nederland
....subTitle k
....layers [object Object]
........gemeenteNaam [object Object]
............visible false
............title [object Object]
................nl gemeentenamen

Hi Jens,
What I basically want is to transform the xml structure into an object
structure.
xml:
<map id="gemRegioIndeling">
<subTitle></subTitle>
<classes>
<class1>
<areaColor>0xEBDBAA</areaColor>
<keyText><![CDATA[Noord-Nederland]]></keyText>
<value>RA01</value>
</class1>
<class2>
<areaColor>0xEBDBAA</areaColor>
<keyText><![CDATA[Noord-Nederland]]></keyText>
<value>RA01</value>
</class2>
<layers>
<gemeenteNaam>
<visible>false</visible>
<title>
<nl><![CDATA[gemeentenamen]]></nl>
</title>
</gemeenteNaam>
</layers>
</map>
flash object:
map
map.classes
map.classes,class1
map.classes,class1.areaColor
map.classes,class1.value
...
map.classes,class2
map.classes,class2.areaColor
map.classes,class2.value
...
...
...
map.layers
...
...
...
Things seem to work, but I want to traverse the properties tree of the flash
object and can't get that part working.
Thanks,
Willem van den Goorbergh

Having an example XML could be pretty useful.
And, actually, I don't understand the problem. What should be the output?
Please hand over all necessary info required to be able to help you.

Hi list,
I posted this question a week ago on flash tiger, but never got an answer. So I
try my luck here.
I create an object and dynamically assign properties to it, values from
xml-nodes.
If an xml-node has child nodes the property assigned is an object and the
values of the child nodes are assigned as properties to that object:
private function createProperties(node:XML, container:*):void {
for each (var childNode:XML in node.*) {
if(childNode.children().length() == 0) {
container[childNode.localName()] = null;
} else if(childNode.children().length() == 1) {
container[childNode.localName()] = childNode.*;
} else {
container[childNode.localName()] = new Object();
createProperties(childNode, container[childNode.localName()]);
}
}
}
Now I want to trace what properties are created with the following function:
private function traceProperties(object:Object):void {
for (var prop:* in object) {
trace(prop + " is: " + object[prop]);
traceProperties(prop);
}
if(object.hasOwnProperty("layers")) {
trace("this.layers.gemeenteNaam.title is: " +
this.layers.gemeenteNaam.title);
trace("this.classes.class1.keyText is: " +
this.classes.class1.keyText);
}
}
This traces:
source is: null
note is: null
subTitle is: null
copyright is: Geografiek, 2011
mapType is: chorochromaat
classes is: [object Object]
key is: [object Object]
layers is: [object Object]
this.layers.gemeenteNaam.title is: gemeentenamen
this.classes.class1.keyText is: Noord-Nederland
From this I gather that all properties are actually created on their desired
level (last 2 traced lines).
But the function traceProperties() does not automatically catch all properties.
At least not the properies inside the objects
How do I check if an object has properties at all and how do I trace them?
TIA
