RE: [Flashcoders] Custom MovieClip Classes
Yeah, and than the cash from Flash is flushed.
I also had some issues with this and noticed when restarting Flash (or
rebooting system for that matter)
it worked fine.
So now when I experience odd behavior, I restart Flash.

Re: [Flashcoders] Design pattern for conditional Interfaces ?
Hi Thomaz,
Wouldn't that be the exact same thing as testing against the interface
references that's stored which each analyzer (as I suggested in my post) ?
Since there is no compile-time way to check this, i'm going to check all the
items with all the analyzers in the analyze() method and give a runtime
error if something's wrong.
Thanks for thinking with me though! :)

Hi list!
Situation: I have a class that analyzes stuff. There are different
analyzing
classes, such as HeightAnalyzer, WeightAnalyzer, LevelAnalyzer,

You can add an analyzer to the class by using
'myClass.addAnalyzer(newAnalyzer:IAnalyzer)'.
As you can see, there is an IAnalyzer interface which all Analyzer's
implement. Every time you add an analyzer, it is added to the list using
the
Decorator pattern. (Every analyzer must analyze a list and pass it to
the
next analyzing test)
Now, the analyzer's analyze certain items. Every analyzer requires the
analyzed item to have a certain set of methods. The HeightAnalyzer
requires
a getHeight(), the LevelAnaylzer requires a getLevel(), etc. I want to
have
a different interface for each analyzer, so that I can easily add
analyzers
(+interfaces).
If I want to analyze a list of items, those items must implement the
correct
interface, according to which analyzers you have added to the class. Fe:
var myClass:AnalyzerBundle = new AnalyzerBundle();
myClass.addAnalyzer(new HeightAnalyzer());
myClass.addAnalyzer(new LevelAnalyzer());
myClass.analyze(new Array(item1, item2, item3));
What I am looking for now, is a way to make sure that item1, item2 and
item3
all implement the IHeightItem and ILevelItem interfaces.
I've found a couple of ways to do this, but none of them seemed really
good
to me. One of them was to have every Analyzer keep track of the
interface
associated with it, and check if they implement the correct interface,
once
the analyzer is called. But this would give ugly runtime errors...
I'm pretty sure that it can't be done at compile time, but if anyone
happens
to know some way (hack), or a better way for the runtime errors, please
tell
me :-). All ideas are welcome
Ps: I've just made up all these names, my question is about the
technique
to
be used, not about the project :)

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom MovieClip Classes
yeah I know flash Develop. But I feel More Confortable with Flex. I used to
use FlashDevelop and I got the Beta 6 version of it. 1 Issue though, In
flex, when I use a Class that is associated to a movieClip in the FLA
library, and in this movieClip there are some components like text fields
and Other movieClips, and I mention them into the class in flex, flex does
not recognize them.
for example I have the MovieClip MC with inside a button in the fla, and Its
linkage is Class: MC
so public class MC extends MovieClip {
public function MC() {
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fun); // Flex says that
myButton is unidentified.
}
}
But The FLA compiles anyways without any problems. I just feel unconfortable
when coding beside red warnings in flex. is there some settings I can set to
fix this?
Thanks vy much.

yeah I know flash Develop. But I feel More Confortable with Flex. I used
to
use FlashDevelop and I got the Beta 6 version of it. 1 Issue though, In
flex, when I use a Class that is associated to a movieClip in the FLA
library, and in this movieClip there are some components like text fields
and Other movieClips, and I mention them into the class in flex, flex does
not recognize them.
for example I have the MovieClip MC with inside a button in the fla, and
Its
linkage is Class: MC
so public class MC extends MovieClip {
public function MC() {
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fun); // Flex says that
myButton is unidentified.
}
}
But The FLA compiles anyways without any problems. I just feel
unconfortable
when coding beside red warnings in flex. is there some settings I can set
to
fix this?
Thanks vy much.

[Flashcoders] Re: Multiple Object Position Logic
Hi All, I'm trying to come up with an efficient concept of animating dynamic objects stacked upon each other. For example. Let's say I dynamically add an object (That would be Object 1). Then I wanted to add another object, I want object1 to move down one row, and the new object (object 2) to fade in. I now want to add a third object ( object 3 ). Object 1 and Object 2 move down a row. Now, I decided to delete Object 2. Object 3, now has to animate back up one row. Anyone know an effective way of executing this?

[Flashcoders] How to expand import * statements?
Hey! I've just found out that MTASC compiles much faster if used classes are imported explicitly. That is import com.togethersoft.util.Time import com.togethersoft.util.Format is much faster than import com.togethersoft.util.*; Provided there are many classes in com.togethersoft.util package. Don't ask, I don't know why. Because I'm a lazy programmer I always used * notation in my sources. So now I have a lot of classes with * imports. And because I want my code to compile fast, I wish to substitute * imports to fully qualified class name imports. Do you know any tool to help me to convert import statements in all the sources? This is Action script 2.0. The only way I could think about is to use FDT Eclipse plugin. FDT is able to detect classes used by the given one and add fully qualified class name imports. Unfortunately it does not support a batch mode. So I have to open each class in the editor to convert imports. And there are around 500 classes in the project. Any ideas?

Just guessing, but I think it's required for the Flex Component Kit, when you create swc's to be used in Flex.

[Flashcoders] Variable scope within for loops: reusing iterator variables
I was hoping someone could explain why I get Warning: 3596: Duplicate
variable definition. warnings when I reuse an iterator variable.
Example:
for (var i:int = 0; i someArray.length; i ++) {
// do something cool
}
for (var i:int = 0; i someOtherArray.length; i ++) {
// do something even cooler
}
I had always thought that the scope of variables declared in the
initialization part of the for loop were local to the loop block, not the
block containing the loop. So I guess that is not true... does this mean the
second time I use the loop I have to omit the declaration? Or is there a
keyword I can use to keep the instantiation local to the for block? Seems
like it would be clunky if I was cutting and pasting blocks of code in
different orders, I'd have to keep track of who was the first for loop of
any code block (an admittedly minor annoyance, since I don't have stacks and
stacks of loops, but still...)

The first time you declare the var i, it is in scope for the rest of the

function someFunc():void
{

var i:int;
for (i = 0; i someArray.length; i ++) {

Re: [Flashcoders] Variable scope within for loops: reusing iteratorvariables
That's easy.only after busting my asss for an hour figuring it out..
...Variables are only local to the function
Jonathan try using j in your second for statementnot the letter i twice
Hope that helps...

Subject: [Flashcoders] Variable scope within for loops: reusing iterator
variables
I was hoping someone could explain why I get Warning: 3596: Duplicate
variable definition. warnings when I reuse an iterator variable.
Example:
for (var i:int = 0; i someArray.length; i ++) {
// do something cool
}
for (var i:int = 0; i someOtherArray.length; i ++) {
// do something even cooler
}
I had always thought that the scope of variables declared in the
initialization part of the for loop were local to the loop block, not the
block containing the loop. So I guess that is not true... does this mean the
second time I use the loop I have to omit the declaration? Or is there a
keyword I can use to keep the instantiation local to the for block? Seems
like it would be clunky if I was cutting and pasting blocks of code in
different orders, I'd have to keep track of who was the first for loop of
any code block (an admittedly minor annoyance, since I don't have stacks and
stacks of loops, but still...)
Thanks in advance,
-jonathan

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom MovieClip Classes
The other thing is that not everyone is an advanced coder. Steven did say something to the effect of when writing classes, but automatic declaration is a backward-compatible feature that allows beginners to code in the timeline the same way they used to. In AS3, whether you use your own document class or not, the Main Timeline is essentially a class. Therefore, the instances must be declared. That means that every user, beginner or not, accustomed to best practices or not, would suddenly have to adjust to yet another change in fundamental coding, even with timeline-only code. I agree and very strongly recommend declaring all your instances in classes--and it wouldn't do any harm to adopt that practice in timeline coding--but that's the reasoning behind the option. So that at least that element of timeline coding would not be broken/radically altered for every user.

Re: [Flashcoders] Custom MovieClip Classes
It's a good idea to declare them yourself because both you--and more importantly the compiler--know what every instance is. This may not be 100% on point, but there is a common problem with upcasting, for example, when Strict Mode is on. Here's a scenario. On the stage, you create a movie clip and give it an instance name of mc. Then, in the timeline, you say: var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); mc.addChild(sp); Then later, relative to the sprite, you say: sp.parent.gotoAndStop(2); The compiler doesn't know that mc is a movie clip, so it gives you an error saying it only understands it to be a DisplayObject. You then have to say something like: MovieClip(sp.parent).gotoAndStop(2); to manually cast the display object because upcasting isn't automatic in Strict Mode. Imagine that in a class, and the confusion could increase. So, the recommended practice is to declare everything yourself. Something like this (pseudocode): var mc:MovieClip = new MyMovieClip(); addChild(mc); var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); mc.addChild(sp); sp.parent.gotoAndStop(2); Again, this is untested pseudocode just to explain the general idea. I chose a custom linkage class to make this more analogous to using a custom mc created in the IDE. The process is the same but, after creating it, delete it and place it with code--just one of multiple ways of handling a task.
