Re: [Flashcoders] Object properties not showing up in for..in
If you switched to AS3, teh for in loop does not work on 'sealed' classes,
only on the legacy AS2 style prototype based objects - like
myObj:Object = { prop: 1 , prop: 2, prop: 3 ...};
For sealed classes like iterating thru the, say, props of a
ByteArray or NetStream class,
use the
ObjectUtil.toString
// new Reflection API
myClass.getClass
Hope that helped a bit

This is weird:

for (var i in tProps.nformat) {
trace (i + : + tProps.nformat[i])

Result:
left
That is: tProps.nformat.nalignment is equal to left, but the for..in loop
is failing to mention it (or any of the other properties in the object).
I'm really baffled - especially because the same code was working fine until
today - I've rewritten the class, but this bit shouldn't be affected at all.
Any suggestions gratefully received

Re: [Flashcoders] Seeking Experienced Developer for Connecting Flash to Databases with Java
Hi , depends on what type of middleware you are using ... OPENAMF ?

RE: AW: [Flashcoders] Turn image around effect?
Hi guys , I believe they programmed a AS3 based 3D Rasterizer to create this flip - AS3 can do that quite easy since it provides all necessities to do so : ByteArray to hold the pixels Matrix to do the transforms BitmapData to manipulate and draw and more I am currently working on building a 3D Graphics Engine in AS3 - and if anybody would come to me and ask me to program something like this - that would be the way I would go about it ( but I am a programmer - so my solutions are often very programmer centric - not an animator :) next week I will contact the developer and ask him/them how he / they do/did that :) if he tells :) I am VERY curious wether or not I guessed right What do you guys think about that - would you say my suggestion is correct ? I made a couple of screenshots and noticed that the lines are definitely DRAWN BY FLASH @RUNTIME - look at the Alias its almost nonexistent therefore I believe they are probably using a Bresenham Algo on a BitmapData to draw lines. Think about it, its not as hard as it may sound - all you need is a simple Polygon whithout any depth - no camera , it runs in a fix perspective mode. Then you create a transform matrix ( rotation only ) and transform the Polygon in place ( only inside model space ). The next step would be to create a simple concat Matrix that does the Model-to-Perspective and the Perspective to Screen transform. Done ! well I admit its a shot in the blue - but as i said thats how I would do it. Second question would be the maintainability of 'flippable' content - If they were to use images they would need to 'recreate' each image once its content changes - even twice if they would use two images per flip - doesnt sound maintainable to me :) Besides if content is retrieved from inside a DB or from some kind of Backend, chances are you would not have a way to transform the content ON THE CLIENT - meaning you would have to convert the content from Text to Image on the Server -- arrghhh sounds tricky :) Anyone finds out ... let us know ... this flip is done VERY NICELY - nice craftmanship Have a nice Weekend Amir Am 08:12 PM 6/29/2007 schrieben Sie: If you check the code they are using bitmap classes from http://www.group94.com/.

Re: [Flashcoders] adapt architecture to facilitate switching component sets
Hi JC,
Your solution is quite good. Using an 'Abstract Interface' is always
encouraged :)
The guideline goes like - 'Program to Abstraction not to Implementation'
Unfortunately AS3 does not (yet:) allow Generics / Collection Type
safety - so we are still forced to make sure we
do the right types, since Casting to the correct type will probably
be the biggest Problem for this code. ( MY opinion )
* 'Composite' is the formal Pattern Name for this type of
architecture - check it out - its worth it !!
BUT if you are planning on using components anyway, you might as well
build the app in Flex
which already offers this Architecture as the base of mxml / As3 code
gen and development.
'Abstract interface' for all Displayable Objects in Flex / AS3 is an
Interface called
- IFlexDisplayObject ( in flash its i believe 'Sprite' but dont nail
me on that :)
- UIComponent is the base class from which each Component MUST be subclassed
So if you use flex there would be no need for you to 're-invent' the
wheel :) no offense I dont mean to imply that you would not be capable
but if you are like me ( like a bit lazy :) you will find the offered
component framework in flex quite
AMAZINGLY GOOD
Your designer can change ANYTHING and EVERYTHING on the compos inside
the Design View ( No Coding !!! )
and you can glue functionality on the comps using DataBinding and a
robust event dispatching model.
As an Example - I built a VideoConference Tool Application( like
breeze or spreed ) - first in Flash 8 - I had to implement all
necessary compos so the designer could 'design' them creatively :) (
Man i wanted to kill that guy )
Sounded much like what you are planning on doing - I took me about 3
Months of just implementing compos - from a simple numeric stepper to
the expandable scroll Accordeon
- altogether around 24 components - boy it was a bitch - and then had
to add Domain Logic. Due to this enormous workload I completely
fragged the deadline - project was killed
For my own personal satisfaction I restarted the project myself -
this time in Flex and it took me about 6 - 7 months to complete it.
Now the Tool is in Beta and
running. Lesson for me was: Use Flex Unless you need to animate
or draw something - use Flex. It harnesses so much power !
And you can really concentrate on your business logic instead of
having to waste your time on building low-level application components.
AND even if you need to show something done in flash ( animated /
tweened / handdrawn ) you can import and display in Flex.
I hope I was able to answer your question right and to give you some
ideas / Suggestions.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding Flex / AS
3 , I'll be glad to answer them.

Hi,
we are looking into using another component set than the v2 architecture.
However we don't want to switch over and over again, and frankly as the
architecture developer I dont want anything to do with components at all.
So I was thinking about a setup where I write component interfaces such as
IComboBox and a set of wrappers such as V2ComboBoxAdapter implements
IComboBox.
Next a designer creates a view, and puts something in his view like (im
making it up as I'm typing) :
getComboBox (id:String):IComboBox {
return AbstractFactory.create (V2Adapters.COMBO_BOX, _root.cbPersons);
}
In terms of being independent of my views, I can just start putting an app
together and if the designer dude wants to skin it differently or use a
whole other component set he is free to do so, even mix and match is an
option.
The main thing I'm wondering about is whether I'm gruesomely
overcomplicating things and just causing a heckload of work for no good
reason other than that I am not familiar with a single very good component
set that satisfies all the designer needs (I'm not saying they don't exist,
I'm saying I don't have enough experience in any of them to make a
wellformed decision, and don't really have the time to test them one by
one:)).
Hope this makes any sense!

Re: [Flashcoders] how to call method in sub-class instace?
Hi stranger , :)
I dont think I quite understand what you need, however i will try anyway.
[quote] How do you get a super-class instance to call an over-riding
method in a sub-class
Inheritance assumes that you use a 'general' base class and a
'specialized' subclass. To make sure I understand you right : You
need to call a method on a child class from inside the Parent class,
right ? Does it matter from where you call the method ? As long as
you have a reference to the subclass instance - call the method directly.
class MySuperClass extends Object {
.. important general code here
}
class ChildClass extends MySuperClass {
... important specialized code here
}
var msc:Class = new MySuperClass();
var childRef:ChildClass = msc.getChildClassFromList() as ChildClass;
( I assume the class was stored inside an Array(List) )
childRef.doDesiredAction( 'execute some really important childClass
code' ); // there you go :)
[quote] Furthermore, any input values not caught by the parsers of
the sub-classes need to get passed back up to the super-class.
Calling a method of the Superclass is easy. Just use 'super'.
var msc:Class = new MySuperClass();
var childRef:ChildClass = msc.getChildClassFromList() as ChildClass;
( I assume the class was stored inside an Array(List) )
class MySuperClass extends Object {
.. important general code here
public function doDesiredAction( arg:String){
super.doGeneralDataProcessing( arg );
}
}
class ChildClass extends MySuperClass {
... important specialized code here
public function doDesiredAction( arg:String){
super.doGeneralDataProcessing( arg );
}
}
childRef.doDesiredAction( 'calls the super class' ); // there you go :)
[quote] Does this make sense?
No offense , but no !!! First as a general rule of thumb: 'Favor
Composition over Inheritance' [Sierra|Bates] - Inheritance ties you
down. Say you implement the system as you described
and in 3 months you need to change the BaseClass - suddenly all your
subclasses, needing to call the base class for processing, must be
changed since they all depend on your
base class - Strategy Pattern is recommended over inheritance ( but
thats just my opinion )
Command Pattern to execute the different Parser Classes.
It seems to me that your classes have high coupling / low Cohesion -
meaning that you use several classes to get one job done , it may
seem like a good idea at first ,
using the specialized class A, the base class B, another specialized
class C and so on to work together and parse the desired data.
However it is advised that each class takes care of One
Responsibility. I dont want to be pretentious, so if you already know
all that , please forgive :)
So I assume you have written one parser for each special file format
- a .xml parser , a .txt parser, a loadVars parser and so on.
They all extend MySuperParser. So why splitting responsibility of
parsing data across base and child classes ?
Has the BaseClass features / responsibilities that all subclasses
need ? if so - fine, just call the base class methods from inside your
specialized subClass Parser BEFORE you do the specialized processing like so :
public function mySubClassSpecializedParsingMethod( specialParam:* ) :void {
super.BaseClassPrepFirst( specialParam );
var preppedData:* = super.getPreppedData(); // I havent
really tried this line :) see wether it works
this.doSpecializedPrepping( preppedData );
}
If you want to freshen up on Composition over Inheritance - This Book
is my all time favoured Design Pattern and Bets Practice Programming
Book !!
HEAD FIRST - DESIGN PATTERNS ( Elisabeth Freeman Eric Freeman ||
Kathy Sierra || Bert Bates )
This was the best Book about Design Pattern - actually generally
about good Programming.
I hope I was able to help you a bit - did I get it right ? I hope :)
Best of luck

How do you get a super-class instance to call an over-riding method

I'm parsing data into an object. The parser method is generalized,
so it should be in the super-class, I think... But there are
exceptions in the sub-classes. The call to start loading the data
begins in the super-class, but some of the sub-classes might have
there own over-riding parser methods. Furthermore, any input values
not caught by the parsers of the sub-classes need to get passed back
up to the super-class.
Does this make sense? I did this kind of thing all the time with

Hello,
I've created a custom class:

I then create several instances of LiquidObject and add them as
children to a parent Sprite.
If I cycle through and trace the children as such:
for (var i:int=0;iparent.numChildren;i++) {
trace(parent.getChildAt(i));
}
Each trace shows the correct type of object:
[object LiquidObject]
When I tried to access a property specific to LiquidObject
(LiquidObject.selected) it does not recognize this to be a property
because it thinks it's dealing with a general Sprite. So, I attempt
to coerce to type LiquidObject as such:
for (var i:int=0;iparent.numChildren;i++) {
trace(LiquidObject(parent.getChildAt(i)).selected);
}
Unfortunately, I receive an error stating that I can't coerce type
Sprite to LiquidObject. I would think that this would be allowed
since (a) LiquidObject extends Sprite and (b) parent.getChildAt(i) is
already presenting a type LiquidObject in the trace.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Re: [Flashcoders] upgrading AMFPHP code
Dear all,
dear al,
with as2 remoting you must / can / may :) use the Responder Object.
All you need to do is to pass the Responder as the second parameter
for your Service constructor
like so :
// responder class
class MyResponderSubclass extends mx.remoting.Responder { // please
check the package , i am not really sure but the class name is correct
public function MyResponderSubclass() {}
public function onResult() { }
public function onStatus() { }
// private methods .
}
this.service = new Service(this.gatewayUrl, new
MyResponderSubclass() , myservice);
or
var responder:Object = new Object();
responder.onResult = function() { ... code here ... } ;
responder.onStatus = function() { ... code here } ;
this.service = new Service(this.gatewayUrl, responder , myservice);
By the way, its kinda best practice to NOT attach event handlers and
other 'utililty Objects' directly to root.
Better refactor them out to Helper classes or even better write a
NetConnection Subclass and a NetConnection Responder subclass
and handle all events in there. O'Reilly's Essential Flash
Remoting is a great place to learn all about remoting, which by the
way rocks
Hope I could help you. If anybody finds a flaw in the code, please
forgive and correct me. Its been quite a long night.

Best of Luck and successfull clicking Amir Am 07:21 PM 3/21/2007 schrieben Sie: Hi guys, This is annoying me - I'm just trying to get the seperate RGB component values out of a hex number, then manipulate and reconstruct them. var col = 0xFF; r = col 16; g = col 8 % 255; b = col % 255; trace(r=+r.toString(16)); trace(g=+g.toString(16)); trace(b=+b.toString(16)); col2 = r 16 + g 8 + b; trace(col2=+col2.toString(16)); Anyone got any idea why this isn't working right? My blue values are doing all sorts of wierd stuff - getting smaller, flipping out etc - is it a modulo problem maybe? Should be simple but this always gets me...

Re: [Flashcoders] webcam
Sure, but only local - means no one else can see you. // get the camera var cam = Camera.get( [opt. camName ] ) ; // attach the camera on the vid display videoPanel.attachCamera(cam) ; thats it - nowe you have a working camera - but no way to show it to others or record anything. For that you would need FCS / FMS. hope i could help. best regards Amir Rocker Am 09:45 AM 2/26/2007 schrieben Sie: Is there a way to have a webcam in a web site without flashcomm ?
