[Flashcoders] flex simple question call function
Hi, a supid question.
I'm trying to use Flex Builder.
How can I call this function? I can't get it working. Thanks.
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import flash.display.*;
public function drawer():void{
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
mySprite.graphics.beginFill(0xffcc00);
mySprite.graphics.drawCircle(30,30,30);
var lab:TextField = new TextField();
lab.text = hello;
lab.x = 300;
lab.y = 300;
mySprite.addChild(lab);
addChild(mySprite);
}

Re: [Flashcoders] a question of geometry
I suppose you know the width/diameter of the circles? 1. First calulate the length of you line: ringLength=circle1Diameter+circle2Diameter etc 2. Calculate the ringRadius from ringLength (I don't remember the formula but it's high school math) 3. Calculate the angle that every circle should be on: circleXDiameter/ringLength*360 4. Place the circles by converting their angle to a vector and multiply it with the ringRadius (google search for angle to vector functions, possibly it's easier to find functions that convert radians to vectors) I think this would create a image close to what you're after. You might want to tweak the 3:rd step to account for the bent diameter of the circles to get an exact fit. /David Skoglund ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
Re: [Flashcoders] masking a clip which uses the drawing api
Masking with elements made up by drawing API works 100%, ive done it many times. What is it that doesnt work for you? 2006/9/15, Merrill, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Is it not possible to mask a clip into which you draw things using the drawing API? I'm not totally sure about masking, but in general, I think there are some bugs or conflicts with a movie clip drawn upon with the draw API and other elements of the movie. I'm not sure this is as related as you would like, but for example, I had an issue with one of those drawn-on movie clips which had another movie clip as a child, which had a textfield on it. It worked fine until the textfield was updated with new data - then the old text still showed, and the new text was also drawn over the top - so it looked like there were two overlapping textfields. If I separated the textfield from the clip being drawn on, it worked fine. I never could figure out the behavior, but I assumed it had to do with the clips and children of clips drawn on by the draw API and the way the player renders them/redraws them. In another case, portions of v2 components always displayed below clips which were drawn upon - the drawn on clips were always on top. Post again if you figure it out.

RE: [Flashcoders] a question of geometry

1. First calulate the length of you line:

2. Calculate the ringRadius from ringLength (I don't remember the formula

3. Calculate the angle that every circle should be on:
circleXDiameter/ringLength*360
4. Place the circles by converting their angle to a vector and
multiply it
with the ringRadius (google search for angle to vector functions,
possibly

This sounds pretty much like I would do it. I think you're going to need an
approximate solution - it'd be a nightmare to solve algebraically. Basically
if you have a set of circles with radius r(i), and want to place them on a
ring with radius R, the angle that each circle subtends at the centre of the
circle is 2*atan(r(i)/R). So you want to find R such that the sum of
atan(r(i)/R) is pi. Here's a function that ought to work (I'm arbitrarily
assuming your ring will never have a radius greater than 1024):
function getRingRadius(tArray:Array):Number {
var tMaxError = 0.1
var tMax = 1024
var tMin = 0
do {
var tCheck = (tMax + tMin) / 2
var tSum = 0
for (var i = 0; itArray.length; i++) {
tSum += Math.atan2(tArray[i]/tCheck)
}
if (tSumMath.PI) {
tMax = tCheck
} else {
tMin = tCheck
}
} while (Math.abs(tSum - Math.PI)tMaxError)
return tCheck
}

RE: [Flashcoders] Hex to HSB
I'm doing this in flash 9, the hex to rgb conversion is sweet and plenty fast
enough, it's when I throw in the HSB conversion that is bogs down. It has to be
done pixel by pixel as the type of transform depends on the input value of each
individual pixel.
[We're doing tilemap adjustments for a large screen made up of LED panels (so
small res, think 340 by 122 pxls) so we have to do both Gamma and Colour
correction.]

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Hex to HSB
No, pretty much the way hsb -- rgb works, you need to have the numbers
separate. You could probably create some awkward transform that tries really
hard not to break them up, but it would end up being a lot more complicated,
and not worth it.
Besides, going from 0xRRGGBB to 0xRR, 0xGG, 0xBB is very fast (just 3 ANDs
and 2 bitshifts).
// takes a color in the form 0xRRGGBB returns an object with the fields r,
g, and b
function hex2rgb(c:Number):Object
{
return {
r:(c16)0xff,
g:(c8)0xff,
b:c0xff
};
}
// takes an object with fields r, g, and b, returns a color in the form
0xRRGGBB
function rgb2hex(c:Object):Number
{
return (c.r16) | (c.g8) | (c.b);
}
and then here's a quick test:
var c = hex2rgb(0xabcdef);
trace(r=0x+c.r.toString(16)+ g=0x+c.g.toString(16)+
b=0x+c.b.toString(16));
trace(color=0x+rgb2hex(c).toString(16));
then, assuming your rgb2hsv and hsv2rgb functions take an object as input,
you could do:
// read in hsv from a pixel
var hsv:Object = rgb2hsv(hex2rgb(bmp.getPixel(x,y)));
// transform hsv.h, hsv.s, hsv.v, etc
hsv.h /= 2;
hsv.s = 50;
hsv.v = Math.random()*100;
// put back our transformed pixel
bmp.setPixel(x,y,rgb2hex(hsv2rgb(hsv)));
--
Now, this is all theoretical, but I don't think flash 8 is fast enough to do
this calculation on a real-time video of any decent size. flash 9 might be
able to handle it.
But if you just want to do some color transforms, i'd suggest looking at the
built in transform classes instead of trying to do it yourself
pixel-by-pixel. These should be much faster, because the transform code will
be native, instead of in actionscript. They are pretty flexible, you can do
a lot with them.

[Flashcoders] netstream problem
Hello, I am working on a video player at the moment but the netstream object is giving me a hard time. I need to make use of the bytesTotal and bytesLoaded values to maintain the buffering but bytesTotal isn't working at all for me. In IE (6.0) it always returns -1 untill it's fully buffered and in firefox (1.5) it always returns the same value as bytesLoaded. My whole play and buffering code starts after triggering the onMetaData event so that shouldn't be the problem. Things I've tried: - testing on a lan server with or without servicecapture or charles throttling (just in case one of the programs was causing the problem) - online server without throttling - made sure the mime types are correct on the servers IIS config settings. Have looked around the net and found people with the same problem but I didn't find a solution. Anyone who has encountered this problem before and can help me, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Re: [Flashcoders] a question of geometry
I can email an image to anyone that wants it, or you can draw it like this... I think this is what you want... Draw a point and a line vertically upwards of length R. Draw a large letter V (inverted cone) upwards from the point. Draw an arc, radius R to cut the V. Where the arc cuts the vertical draw a circle, radius r, to meet the edges of V. The edges of V are tangents. Draw radii to these tangents, making 90 degree angles with them. Mark r and R on the diagram. Now r/R = sin(A), where A is half the angle at the bottom of the V. Let's say there are n of these small circles, so that n*2*A = 360 (degrees) or n*2*A = 2*pi (radians) You can decide n and find A and then find r/R (the angles are usually in radians). You can then decide R and find r (or other way around). Each time through the loop for =n the new angle measured from the vertical in a clockwise direction is n*2*A. The place to draw each circle is x=Rsin(n*2*A) and y=Rcos(n*2*A) Without geometry, where would we be?

RE: [Flashcoders] a question of geometry
I can email an image to anyone that wants it, or you can draw it like
this...
I think this is what you want...
Draw a point and a line vertically upwards of length R.
Draw a large letter V (inverted cone) upwards from the point.
Draw an arc, radius R to cut the V.
Where the arc cuts the vertical draw a circle, radius r, to meet the edges
of V.
The edges of V are tangents.
Draw radii to these tangents, making 90 degree angles with them.
Mark r and R on the diagram.
Now r/R = sin(A), where A is half the angle at the bottom of the V.
Let's say there are n of these small circles, so that
n*2*A = 360 (degrees)
or
n*2*A = 2*pi (radians)
You can decide n and find A and then find r/R (the angles are usually in
radians).
You can then decide R and find r (or other way around).
Each time through the loop for =n the new angle measured from
the vertical
in a clockwise direction is n*2*A.
The place to draw each circle is x=Rsin(n*2*A) and y=Rcos(n*2*A)
I enjoyed this one, so I came back to it and wrote a complete solution. Put
a symbol in the library with id 'circle', then run this script:
function getRingRadius(tArray:Array):Number {
var tMaxError = 0.1
var tMax = 1024
var tMin = 0
do {
var tCheck = (tMax + tMin) / 2
var tSum = 0
for (var i = 0; itArray.length; i++) {
tSum += Math.atan2(tArray[i],tCheck)
}
if (tSumMath.PI) {
tMin = tCheck
} else {
tMax = tCheck
}
} while (Math.abs(tSum - Math.PI)tMaxError)
return tCheck
}
var tRadii = new Array()
for (var i=0; i10 ; i++) {
tRadii.push(Math.random()*20+1)
}
var tRingRadius = getRingRadius(tRadii)
var tSquaredRadius = tRingRadius * tRingRadius
var tAngle = 0
for (var i=0; i10 ; i++) {
tCircle = this.attachMovie(circle, circle+i,
this.getNextHighestDepth())
tCircle._width = tCircle._height = tRadii[i]*2
tThisAngle = Math.atan2(tRadii[i], tRingRadius)
tAngle += tThisAngle
tDistance = Math.sqrt(tRadii[i]*tRadii[i] + tSquaredRadius)
tCircle._x = 200 + tDistance * Math.cos(tAngle)
tCircle._y = 200 + tDistance * Math.sin(tAngle)
tAngle += tThisAngle
}
NB: my previous script had my max and min mixed up so it didn't work. This
one is correct.

RE: [Flashcoders] for function
In your code below, you are treating rec like an array, not a string.
Try this:
for (var i:Number = 1; i=100; i++) {
this[rec+i].text = i;

RE: [Flashcoders] For and Var
//var [s+i]:Number = flashSQL.MoveNext[var8+i];
//Number([s+i]);
That's like black magic or something. Several things wrong there. You
need to learn to use some traces in your code to know where it's
breaking, but basically, the array access operator is used to evaluate
an object name in an object. So in other words, you need to use the
proper scope
this[rec+i]
Means (on a frame script), the current timeline: rec1 instance, rec2
instance, rec3 instance, etc.
Also, name your instances starting with 0 instead of 1, will be easier
for you since arrays start at 0.
for (var i = 0; i7; i++) {
var myTempNumber:Number = //whatever you do to get the number
this[rec+i].text = myNumber
}
Also, s+Something will never be a number - no numbers I know of start
with s.
Hope that helps,

Name spacing the mx: prefix of the Flex components is required in every

RE: [Flashcoders] class function call onMouseAction
This is a scope issue. This function you wrote is in a class, but mc
doesn't know how to access methods of that class. You could get around
it by assigning a property to mc which is an instance of the class, and
then calling the getPlayFile() method that way. As you have it now, mc
doesn't have any reference or know about the getPlayFile() method in
your class. In fact, mc doesn't know anything about your class. So one
way to work around this, would be to do this:
private function setPlayButton(){
var mc:MovieClip = vid.toolbar.playVideoButton;
mc.classinstance = this;
mc.onRollOver = mc.onDragOver = function():Void{
this.classinstance.getPlayFile(0);
}

Almost no serious programming was even possible in flash before AS2 so by defining 4 years you are essentially insisting that someone *not* be someone who has a background in other languages and systems. I'm not saying they don't exist at all, but it is such a silly requirement because it inappropriately limits the pool. Of course insisting that someone be an expert in AS1 is even more silly.

Are you testing on a web site with your browser or locally in your

RE: [Flashcoders] Software Development Position
Just so we're clear, I don't mean they simply enjoy their jobs. I'm talking
about the guys who constantly learn, adapt and take their work home with
them on a regular basis. The guys who eat, breathe and sleep their jobs.
I've found that there are many guys fresh out of school who are like this
for the first 6 months to a year and than taper off. Than it's simply 9 to 5
and everything else is a waste.
If you know a lot of them, than you're living in a pretty unique place
compared to where I'm from. I'm pretty rigged into the industry here and
generally most of the guys couldn't even do that if they wanted to. They
have families or other commitments that infringe on their time.

Exactly, and I'm skeptical of anyone who requires a CompSci
degree for a Flash position because there isn't a single
college degree for Flash programming. ;)
Comp Sci isn't about Flash programming, or Java programming, or {insert
language flavor of the week} programming. It's not even about
programming.
My personal observation, however, is that people who have a comp sci
background tend to make better programmers than those who don't. The
best
Flash programmers I've met, personally, have comp sci backgrounds, for
what
that's worth.
Personally, I don't have that background, unfortunately, and I have
certainly felt its absence at times; there are a bunch of things I've
had
to
learn the hard way as a result.

Re: [Flashcoders] Software Development Position
But it sounds like you consider having a family or other committments
mutually exclusive to passion or even continued learning. My
definition of passion did not require neglecting family though
certainly after hours work is generally an indicator of passion.
Personally, I know of several programmers that have a wife and kids
and who dedicate time to them, that I would consider passionate
programmers, though our definitons may be diverging. Personally, I
consider being a well rounded person useful in the context of
developing software for human beings. And though, right now I am
chained to my computer in a crunch to release a product, I dont
consider having a life to be a detriment to being passionate about
anything - programming included.

Re: [Flashcoders] Site Check Please - Problem with swfObject
I just realized that the problem of the navigation not loading the first time around happens when a user has Flash 7 and uses the express install to update to 9. Once the update is complete and they are redirected to the website, the navigation doesn't load. If you have the Flash uninstaller handy and an earlier version of Flash handy as well, please visit my page with Flash 7 or below, accept the express install prompt, and see if the navigation loads upon being redirected to the site.

RE: [Flashcoders] Site Check Please - Problem with swfObject
Maybe it is apocalyptic radiation from the mushroom cloud in banner image at the top? Anyway, SWFObject should not be the problem here. If you see the flash at all it would seem to be working. The only thing I can think of would be that your detection script is not working properly. Are you doing it like he says to do it on the swf object page? Detection on frame one and code for the nav on frame 2? It is working fine for me.

Re: [Flashcoders] Site Check Please - Problem with swfObject
That's because you probably need to restart the browser to fully load the new flash player. For that reason, I don't even use the updater. I just let the alternate content (using SWFObject) link to the flash installer at adobe's site. Not as cool, but seems to be most reliable. I'd be happy to hear about any better strategies out there!

Re: [Flashcoders] Site Check Please - Problem with swfObject
I just walked around the office and confirmed that on three other computers in both IE and Firefox the navigation does not appear the first time visiting the site. Even when clicking on the graphic buttons in the content of the home page the navigation still doesn't show up. The only ways to get the navigation to show up were to 1). click on any button in the flash header (ie Home, Contact) or 2). click on the navigation in the footer. Interesting enough, the navigation in the footer is also being built using XML and is being parsed with XSLT. I'm at a loss for why this strange behavior is taking place. Thanks guys, Aaron P.S. Really, I don't think that the express install and redirection is the problem, but once you have visited the site and got the navigation to work, the only way to replicate the problem is to uinstall Flash, install Flash 7, express install 9, and revisit the site.

Comp Sci isn't about Flash programming, or Java programming, or

My personal observation, however, is that people who have a comp sci

RE: [Flashcoders] specifying type of an array contents?
One technique I often use is to create the array as a private member of
a class and guard it against including invalid classes. For example:
import mypackage.Item;
class mypackage.ItemList extends Object {
public function ItemList() {
super();
_items = new Array();
}
public function get itemCount():Number {
return _items.length;
}
public function addItem(item:Item):Void {
if (!(item instanceof Item)) {
throw new Error(Invalid item: + item);
}
_items.push(item);
}
public function getItem(index:Number):Item {
var item:Item = Item(_items[index]);
return (item == undefined) ? null : item;
}
public function removeItem(item:Item):Void {
for (var i:Number = _items.length; i 0; --i) {
if (_items[i - 1] == item) {
_items.splice(i - 1, 1);
}
}
}
public function removeItemAt(index:Number):Void {
_items.splice(index, 1);
}
public function toString():String {
return [type ItemList(items= + _items.join(, ) + )]
;
}
private var _items;
}
It is cumbersome to do this for all types, but it's handy for many
occasions. (I do really miss C++ templates, though)

flash defaults to thiking the array contains only strings, so the

RE: [Flashcoders] specifying type of an array contents?
You are using the wrong syntax, that's all.
for (var btn in btnClipArray) {
btnClipArray[btn].removeMovieClip();
}
btn is simply referring to the index in the array, not the object in
that array's position. If you traced btn you'd get a number counting
down from the length - 1 of the array to zero (10 9 8 7 6, etc.) because
for in iterates backwards through an array.
For that loop, though, I'd use the fastest loop in Flash:
var i = btnClipArray.length;
while (--i -(-1)) {
btnClipArray[i].removeMovieClip();
}

Where the arc cuts the vertical draw a circle, radius r, to meet the edges
of V.
The edges of V are tangents.
Draw radii to these tangents, making 90 degree angles with them.
Mark r and R on the diagram.
Now r/R = sin(A), where A is half the angle at the bottom of the V.
Let's say there are n of these small circles, so that
n*2*A = 360 (degrees)
or
n*2*A = 2*pi (radians)
You can decide n and find A and then find r/R (the angles are usually in
radians).
You can then decide R and find r (or other way around).
Each time through the loop for =n the new angle measured from
the vertical
in a clockwise direction is n*2*A.
The place to draw each circle is x=Rsin(n*2*A) and y=Rcos(n*2*A)
I enjoyed this one, so I came back to it and wrote a complete solution. Put
a symbol in the library with id 'circle', then run this script:
function getRingRadius(tArray:Array):Number {
var tMaxError = 0.1
var tMax = 1024
var tMin = 0
do {
var tCheck = (tMax + tMin) / 2
var tSum = 0
for (var i = 0; itArray.length; i++) {
tSum += Math.atan2(tArray[i],tCheck)
}
if (tSumMath.PI) {
tMin = tCheck
} else {
tMax = tCheck
}
} while (Math.abs(tSum - Math.PI)tMaxError)
return tCheck
}
var tRadii = new Array()
for (var i=0; i10 ; i++) {
tRadii.push(Math.random()*20+1)
}
var tRingRadius = getRingRadius(tRadii)
var tSquaredRadius = tRingRadius * tRingRadius
var tAngle = 0
for (var i=0; i10 ; i++) {
tCircle = this.attachMovie(circle, circle+i,
this.getNextHighestDepth())
tCircle._width = tCircle._height = tRadii[i]*2
tThisAngle = Math.atan2(tRadii[i], tRingRadius)
tAngle += tThisAngle
tDistance = Math.sqrt(tRadii[i]*tRadii[i] + tSquaredRadius)
tCircle._x = 200 + tDistance * Math.cos(tAngle)
tCircle._y = 200 + tDistance * Math.sin(tAngle)
tAngle += tThisAngle
}
NB: my previous script had my max and min mixed up so it didn't work. This
one is correct.

Aaron, Your website loaded up quickly when I visited it the first time. The navigation appeared without having to click anywhere else. Now, however, after exiting both browsers it took your website several minutes to load your home page and I don't get any navigation in both browsers. These are the results that I get when I visit http://www.whitehorsemedia.com/. When I visit http://whitehorsemedia.com/ I get the navigation. Results based upon a handful of visits with some really slow dowload times.

Re: [Flashcoders] For and Var
I think Laurent was trying to cast the value of a variable with a
dynamic name to a number and not the dynamic name s+i to a number
which can be done like this:
// assuming flashSQL.MoveNext[var8+i] can be cast to a number
// you can do it like this
this[s+i] = Number( flashSQL.MoveNext[var8+i] );
However, the text property of a textfield takes a string value, not a
number value so casting to a number is inappropriate for the .text
assignment.
Hope this helps,

That's like black magic or something. Several things wrong there. You
need to learn to use some traces in your code to know where it's
breaking, but basically, the array access operator is used to evaluate
an object name in an object. So in other words, you need to use the
proper scope
this[rec+i]
Means (on a frame script), the current timeline: rec1 instance, rec2
instance, rec3 instance, etc.
Also, name your instances starting with 0 instead of 1, will be easier
for you since arrays start at 0.
for (var i = 0; i7; i++) {
var myTempNumber:Number = //whatever you do to get the number
this[rec+i].text = myNumber
}
Also, s+Something will never be a number - no numbers I know of start
with s.
Hope that helps,

If you're using Apache, create a .htaccess file in your doc root like

(without the www).
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://whitehorsemedia.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Alternatively, google for crossdomain.xml, or strictly use relative paths.

[Flashcoders] Calling Actionscript from PHP
Hello, I'm a PHP/Perl developer who's not terribly familiar with Flash or Actionscript. A Flash developer friend of mine suggested I try asking a question here. I find myself in a position where I need to call an Actionscript function from PHP. This PHP page is not viewed by the user, it's just called via AJAX from another page. The server is running FreeBSD with PHP 4. Is there any way to accomplish this? I would rather avoid having this function called on the client-side due to security concerns. If the above is impossible or financially prohibitive (via FMS), is there a good Actionscript to PHP converter anyone can recommend?

[Flashcoders] Using transform matrix
I need to build an application for a client to scale and rotate an image. I am thinking of using a tranfomation matrix, but am not so familiar with it. I read the article of Senocular: http://www.senocular.com/flash/tutorials/transformmatrix/ i did some tests. The app itself places four handlers on each corner of the image. Pressing the handlers and dragging them scales the image. My idea is to scale and replace the image when a handler is drag. I ran into trouble when trying to read the width of the image from the matrix. My question, is it possible to calculate the width based on the matrix grid?

RE: [Flashcoders] Calling Actionscript from PHP
You can have your Flash Client connect to a PHP Socket. When events happen on the server-side, notify the socket which the Flash client will listen for new data from the backend. The ActionScript XMLSocket handler will need to fire the client-side method. Whoever is doing the ActionScript side of things need not handle just XML, it can also handle URL-encoded strings. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Andrew Lechner Sent: Monday, September 18, 2006 3:39 PM To: Flashcoders Subject: [Flashcoders] Calling Actionscript from PHP Hello, I'm a PHP/Perl developer who's not terribly familiar with Flash or Actionscript.

Re: [Flashcoders] Calling Actionscript from PHP
Anything executed within Flash is client-side. If you're talking about avoiding calling a Flash function via JavaScript, then there are ways to do so, but yes, you would need something that is constantly connected to the Flash client, such as FMS or an XMLSocket server. That is the only way that I know of to achieve server push, which is what you apparently want. Something you might consider is having Flash hit a PHP url every n seconds and check for an updated variable that would be set when the AJAX call hits the server. If the variable has changed, PHP can notify Flash and Flash can update itself accordingly.

Re: [Flashcoders] Calling Actionscript from PHP
I think we can probably help you o ut better if we had a better idea of what you were trying to accomplish. As prviously stated, actionscript is always going to execute inside, when you are dealing with the flash player. Sockets can be one way of dealing with the issue, but it may be overkill...for instance, do you need to fire this function just once as the page initially loads, or at any random time?

No built in methods I know of. But quick and easy, is just to loop.
Something like:
public function findStringItem(theArray:Array,
identifier:String):Number{
var i:Number = theArray.length
while (--i -(-1)) {
if(theArray[i] == identifier){
return i;
}
}

SAFARI SUCKS!!!
Sorry, I can't be more helpful; just had to get that out there. ;)
Okay, I'll try to be a little helpful--have you tried putting an alert()
call in your JS function to see if Safari's calling it at all? Or,
better yet, try calling the function from an HTML link (a href=#
onclick=openVidPlayer...). This may help narrow down where the failure
is occuring.

Re: [Flashcoders] htmlText javascript link being ignored in Safari
Hello Marlon,
- use allowDomain=always in html.
MH I have a dynamic text field where I create an html link based on a
MH couple of pieces of data.
MH Here's an example of the code for the link:
MH var aTag:String = p class = 'landing'a
MH
href=\javascript:openVidPlayer('/vidplayer.html?video=+sel.v_id+category=+sel.cat+');\
target = '_parent'+sel.ttl+/a/p;
MH My problem is that the popup works fine in Windows IE, Mac/Win Firefox
MH just fine. It won't work in Safari. It shows as link, but when you
MH click, nothing happens. Can anyone think of a reason why this wouldn't
MH work?

Re: [Flashcoders] Find item in array
Yeah, you may want to try an indexed(?, sorry tired!) array: var a:Array = new Array(); a[b] = 1; . . a[d] = 4; then, var y:Number = a[b]; will result in y == 1; Scott On 9/18/06, Mendelsohn, Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi list...

[Flashcoders] Kongregate
Hi all - I want to announce my soon-to-launch Flash game startup to this list - I'm looking for game developers and players. The site takes games uploaded by indie developers and puts them into a rich community framework with persistent rewards, metagames, collectible items, chat, etc. Game developers make up to 50% of the revenue we get from rich media ads and microtransactions. Basically we're building a community around web games. When I say community, I don't just mean chat and profiles. It's more like turning individual web games into something that have some of the addictive qualities of an MMO. For those of you who play World of Warcraft - what keeps you playing after you get a little bored with the quest that you're working on? I think it's things like this: - you are about to level up - you are about to earn some rare item - your friend is coming online in a minute and you said you'd quest with them Basically it boils down to: you've got goals that go beyond a single play session, and you're online so everyone you play with can see/admire your progress. We have analogues for all of those rewards. So what we're creating is a game portal with: - chat - profiles - challenges and collectible items - microtransactions for premium features - leagues - loyalty points for rating games, suggesting features, etc - rich media ads As I said, we're making money off rich media ads and splitting that. We're also opening up the microtransaction API so developers can charge for premium content in their own games (extra levels, gameplay modes, etc) -- we'll take a much smaller cut of that revenue. We're launching a private alpha version in a couple of weeks - if you're interested in participating you can email me. Preference will be given to those who have games to upload! Initially, our usage will be low so the revenue share won't be significant - to make up for that we'll be having cash prizes for Game of the Week and Game of the Month. Also, we're hiring developers to help us make our own games, as well as extend the API feature set. The first game we're making is a collectible card game, played online - you win the cards by completing challenges in user-uploaded games.

Do you mean allowScriptAccess? I tried allowScriptAccess and that
didn't work. I've never heard of allowDomain

Re: [Flashcoders] Find item in array
Merrill, Jason wrote:
while (--i -(-1)) {
Jason, very interesting way of counting through the array. I haven't
see this approach before. Are there any benefits to using (--i -(-i))
in the expression over something like the following?:
while (i--) {
It seems like your loop would need to do two calculations each trip.
One for decrementing i and the second for adding 1 to it to keep the
number above zero so it returns true. If you decrement i after the
condition using i-- instead of before the condition with --i you won't
need add 1 to it. Just an idea.
However, as far as I know you're right looping through the array in AS
2.0 is the only way to find the index of an item. You might also want
to use === instead of == to do strict comparing so 12 doesn't equal
12. Depends on what you need tho.
One thing I might add to your function is the ability to return -1
instead of undefined when an item isn't found which is more consistent
with the String.indexOf method.
Thankfully, in AS 3.0 there is a method to find the index and as fate
would have it it's called indexOf(). It returns either the index if
found or -1 if not found. You would use it like:
var idx:Number = a.indexOf(d);
Cheers,

RE: [Flashcoders] Find item in array
It's the fastest because: Pre-decrementation (--i) is faster than post-decrementation (i--) And substraction (- (-1) is faster than addition (+ 1). They are faster because it's less code that gets produced when you compile. http://flasm.sourceforge.net/#optimization For most cases, it's a matter of milliseconds or even less, which isn't that big a deal, but I use it anyway because it's a good habit to have and it makes my code logic work with that in mind always so when it does make a difference in seconds, it's already there. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
[Flashcoders] ::dk:: getColumnNames not returning all column names
Hi there. I have a remoting app in which i use PHP/amfphp to get data into my app. Now in my PHP I have the following SQL query performed to create a join on 2 tables... SELECT dkcms_photo.*, dkcms_profiles.uFname FROM dkcms_photo LEFT JOIN dkcms_profiles ON dkcms_profiles.uId = dkcms_photo.phUsername ORDER BY phMod DESC Now when I test the query (by running at the mysql command line), all the data is returned as expected. I then test the php in the amfphp service browser and again - same thing all data is returned as expected. Now - in flash When I try to access the one column name returned by the join - I get undefined. So I then used the getColumnNames function (and trace the results) to see what is actually being listed in flash Well as expected, none of the columns from the second table are actually making it into flash. Does anyone have any ideas? d ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
