[Flashcoders] Interesting problem - doesn't work without call to trace.
Hi,
I've come across this a few times in my own code, but haven't seen it
mentioned online - though it's a difficult thing to google for.
In the following function, if the trace at the top is present, formData
traces a load of XML and select1 also traces a load of XML.
If I comment out the top trace, formData still traces the same pile of XML
but select1 traces null!
public function testMakeModelFilterWorks():void {
trace();
default xml namespace = NAMESPACE;
var select1:XML = formData..select1[2];
trace(formData=, formData);
trace(select1:, select1);
// etc
default xml namespace = null;
}
Any ideas? I'm getting fed up of leaving 'trace();//don't delete me' at
the top of functions.
(I don't think it's a timing thing, if I put a 10-item
increment-a-variable loop in there instead of a trace the E4X still fails.)

Re: [Flashcoders] Interesting problem - doesn't work without call to trace.
Well, it becomes a null - so if I do select1.toString() in the trace I just
get a runtime error.. And I don't want to turn the results of my query into
a string, because I need it as an XML ref.

Have you tried the toString or toXMLString for this - check the XML class
for the proper function name...

Hi Matt,
No, afraid not.. I actually use the select1 variable elsewhere, so it's
not
just that trace which is the problem.
Thanks for the suggestion though!

Does it make a difference if you write the trace as :
trace(formData=+formData);
trace(select1:+ select1);

[Flashcoders] AS statement this[testStudent + i] in JAVA ?
Apologies in advance if this is a bit off topic but are there any
ActionScripters who know Java on here?
I'm just starting out with Java and I'm stuck.
In Actionscript you can write a for loop and have something like this:
*
for (var i:int=0;i**myStudnts.length;i++){
this[testStudent** + i] = new Student();
}*
I'm having trouble expressing the left part of the statement --
*this[myStudent
+ i]* -- using Java.
Any suggestions?
Here's where I'm at with the Java code:
*private static Student testStudent1, testStudent2, testStudent3,
testStudent4, testStudent5;
private static String[][] myStudnts = {{...}, {...}, **{...}, **{...}**,
{...}**};
...
public static void main(String[] args){
**initStudents();
}
public static void initStudents(){
for(int i=0; imyStudnts.length; i++){
// NOT COMPILING SO FAR:
/
(Student)(testStudent+(i+1)) = new Student(myStudnts[i][0],
myStudnts[i][1],
myStudnts[i][2], myStudnts[i][3],
myStudnts[i][4], myStudnts[i][5]);
}

I'd make sure your sql is tuned really well (I'm not a SQL expert so
I always seek somebody that is), make sure you are only returning
data you need (don' t return columns with data you don't need, SELECT

once (first call for range A-M, then N-Z, or some such partition

I agree with previous, however, it is good to deal with references in
classes. Best design for your 2D array depends on what it's intended for?:
var reactionStoichiometry:Array = new Array ();
public function addItem( newArr:Array ):Number {
//returns len(?)
return reactionStoichiometry.push( newArr );
}
used like:
var yorObject:YourClass = new YourClass();
var newArr:Array = new Array (1, 3, 2, 0),
yorObject.addItem( newArr );
yorObject.addItem( new Array( 1,2,1,0 ) );
...etc

Just a hint.
Often multi-dimensional arrays are just crying out to be single arrays
of objects and if their wish is granted, your code becomes amazingly
small and elegant as your reward for granting their wish.
Help make an array's wish become true!!! If you pass this on to 6

There aren't any limitations on multidim. arrays in objects, classes,

Subject: [Flashcoders] Multi-dimensional array problems in classes
Hi there,
Does anyone know if it we are supposed to use multi-dimensional arrays
(an array consisting of arrays) within a class? If so, what is the
best, legal way to create them?
The only way I have managed to do it is by this method:
var reactionStoichiometry:Array = new Array (
new Array (1, 3, 2, 0),
new Array (1, 2, 1, 0),
new Array (2, 1, 2, 0),
new Array (2, 0, 1, 3),
new Array (2, 0, 2, 1),
new Array (1, 0, 1, 1),
new Array (1, 1, 2, 0),
new Array (1, 1, 2, 0),
new Array (1, 1, 1, 1));
Any other ways of creating them give me a compile error saying that
they
are not allowed within a class. I need to assign these values
dynamically, the above ones a for testing, and would prefer to do it by
addressing the locations in the main array by position number for
inserting the other arrays within it. Classes don't seem to like
Objects containing arrays either.
Many thanks,
Gareth Hudson.

[Flashcoders] How to make changes to a parent class
Hi When dealing with a class (Class A) that is extended by a number of other classes (Child 1, Child2...), each of which has their own non-inherited properties and methods, what is the general consensus on the best way to add a parameter to the constructor of the parent class? The problem I'm currently facing is that if I extend Class A and modify the constructor to accept an extra argument (Class A-ext), then Child 1 needs to extend Class A-ext so it can pass the new argument through in its super() call. But then I need to duplicate all non-inherited properties and methods of Child 1 into the newly created extended version of Child 1. So it seems to me that I either edit the original classes directly, which makes them potentially incompatible with the same codebase deployed on other projects, or I duplicate them and have two sets of almost identical code to maintain. Anyone got any suggestions for best practice when it comes to this sort of thing?

I guess the easiest way is to pass a string reference:

Re: [Flashcoders] AS2, compiler errors...
Hi Greg
Thanks for the reply, but I don't think either of these are the issues.
This is the constructor of UserInteractionPanel:
public function UserInteractionPanel (controller:PanelController,
panelObj:Object) {}
And here's a version of GameoverPanel with all but the constructor removed:
class GameoverPanel extends UserInteractionPanel {
public function GameoverPanel(controller:PanelController, panelObj:Object) {
// Call the super() constructor passing it the panel object.
super(controller, panelObj);
// Populate the panel contents.
this.populatePanel();
}
}
Any other ideas? I seem unable to ever create a project involving AS2
classes without getting syntax errors when error checking. These often don't
stop the classes compiling and the application running properly, but they're
a pain.
Cheers

True to form (in my experience anyway), I've just gone in to the classes to amend them using some of your suggestions and they're now not throwing any errors... I just don't get it. One thing that I noticed in your example code was that you called methods of the parent class using super.method() rather than this.method(). I wasn't aware you could do that, but it certainly makes reading the code more straightforward. Thanks!

Absolutely, but I'd never have been trapped as I didn't understand

{
public function doSomething()
{
trace(Something in A);
}
}
class B extends A
{
public function doSomething()
{
super.doSomething();
trace(Something in B);
}
}
In this situation, using super.method() lets you call the parent
implementation of the method you're currently in. If you were limited to
this.method(), then you'd be trapped in an infinitely recursive loop as
the
method kept calling itself...

RE: [Flashcoders] XML and CData
Not the best workaround, but why not just use the parent node for yout HTML tags as your string? What is the issue with the child nodes being read as nodes? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Wagner Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 7:37 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] XML and CData The ignoreWhite is set to true. I have four other fields which are integers, all coming through fine so I know the XMLConnector is setup, being triggered, and otherwise working ok. If I remove the CDATA from the xml and send it through as text it comes through fine. The problem is I know my data will have some html mixed in so I really need the CDATA around it. Any other ideas are more than welcome. Thanks, Ron ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
RE: [Flashcoders] XPath Query HELP!
Look at the class com.xfactorstudio.xml.xpath.types.Predicate line 266,
add these traces:
static function isEqualTo(val1, val2):Boolean{
trace(EQUALS::+val1+ , +val2)
var values = Predicate.convertForComparison(val1, val2);
for (var i in values){
trace(i+ : +values[i]);
}
return (values.val1 == values.val2);
}
You will see that the convertForComparison method is not working
correctly for some reason. I don't have time to continue looking at
this, I hope this gets you on the right path (har har).

RE: [Flashcoders] XPath Query HELP!
I could not resist finding out what was wrong, here's the fix I came up
with:
Line 70 of com.xfactorstudio.xml.xpath.XPathUtils reads:
for (var i=1 ; i=max ; i+=2)
It should say i=max to accommodate 1 character text node values. Make
that change and your query will work.

RE: [Flashcoders] setInterval() and the trouble
Why is something so useful undocumented? I have to bend over backwards to create single-fire timers. Thanks for the post. -Original Message- Its undocumented, but it works in a fire once kind of situation like javascript: foo = setTimeout( func, ms) clearTimeout(foo) but only if you need to stop the interval. Otherwise, just fire it and forget it. e.d. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
