You mean that even with that code :
var loadDirection:Timer = new Timer
(delay_ini,str_lieux.length-1);
loadDirection.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,
onloadDirectionTimer);
loadDirection.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE,
doneloadDirectionTimer);
loadDirection.start();
//EACH TIMER CALL
function onloadDirectionTimer(event:TimerEvent):void
{
//Stop the timer to have 1 request at a time
loadDirection.stop();
//Define the path
path = str_lieux[i] + " to " + str_lieux[i+1];
//Calculate the direction
var dir:Directions = new Directions();
dir.addEventListener(DirectionsEvent.DIRECTIONS_SUCCESS,
onDirLoadInitial);
dir.addEventListener(DirectionsEvent.DIRECTIONS_FAILURE,
onDirFail);
trace(path);
dir.load(path);
}
As soon as the function called by the timer onloadDirectionTimer the
timer is stopped.
Say that the first call is A, then in A the timer is stopped. However,
what you're explaining is that the process to call A and to stop the
timer might be longer than another call B by the timer to the function
onloadDirectionTimer ?
What would you use instead of a Timer ?
Thank you
