You’re having scoping problems.

Subject: [flexcoders] sound
problem: onSoundComplete
Trying to get onSoundComplete() to work - but it never seems to get
called.
Here's the code I'm working with:
function
startSound(currentSound)
{
feedback.text += currentSound+" playing
now";
glow.alpha = 100;
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.attachSound(currentSound);
snd.>
{
glow.alpha = 0;
feedback.text +=
" stopping now";
}
snd.start();
}
The "currentSound" parameter is the name
of an mp3. The startSound function
is called as the change event from a comboBox used
to select the sound to
be played. The sound gets played just fine, but
the onSoundComplete
function never executes.
The "feedback.text" mechanism is a trace
- and the text "stopping now"
never gets called.
The "glow" object is an imported .swf
whose alpha is supposed to change
when the sound is complete.

RE: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
Matt - I made your modification in my code, and still have the same
problem: sound plays OK, but the onSoundComplete actions (trace and reset
alpha) never take place.
Here's the modified code:
function startSound(currentSound)
{
feedback.text += currentSound+" playing now";
glow.alpha = 100;
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.attachSound(currentSound);
snd.onSoundComplete =
mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, function()
{
glow.alpha = 0;
feedback.text += " stopping now";
});
snd.start();
}
Any other ideas?

RE: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
There's still a scoping problem. Try this:
function startSound(currentSound) {
feedback.text += currentSound+" playing now";
glow.alpha = 100;
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.attachSound(currentSound);
snd.onSoundComplete = mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, soundStopped);
snd.start();
}
function soundStopped() {
glow.alpha = 0;
feedback.text += " stopping now";
}

RE: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
Dirk, thanks for the suggestion - but still no luck. Same problem: sound
plays, no onSoundComplete execution. Were you able to get this to work?
Here's my revised code:
function startSound(currentSound)
{
feedback.text += currentSound+" playing now";
glow.alpha = 100;
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.attachSound(currentSound);
snd.onSoundComplete =
mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, soundStopped);
snd.start();
}
function soundStopped()
{
glow.alpha = 0;
feedback.text += " stopping now";

RE: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
Just trying to bump this problem up - still looking for a solution.
I've tried a bunch of different combinations to make the onSoundComplete
method work, none of which do the trick. The docs - which perhaps were
repurposed from Flash - make no mention of the scoping issue. Anyone have
suggestions or a "hello world" level example?

RE: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
I'm having no problems with this. To test, just replace the url variable
with some local sound on your machine. One key difference to note, im
using loadSound rather than attachSound. Not sure why that matters, but it
might

Re: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
loadSound will load an mp3 file external to the SWF.
attachSound will play a sound that has been embedded in the SWF file.

Re: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
Good enough, heres an example reworked using an embeded
sound. onSoundComplete still fires flawlessly. Perhaps the problem was
that Tom had the Sound variable scoped locally to the function, while I
have mine accessible to the whole class.

Re: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
The Activation Object is the weirdest beast... XML & LoadVars will both stay
around AND fire their onLoad/onData events even if you declare them as local
vars.
While this is nice to save on member variables, no one knows what the heck
garbage collection does with them, so doing things your way is recommended.
...still, I have in the past gotten onSoundComplete to work via a local var
so not sure...

Good enough, heres an example reworked using an embeded
sound. onSoundComplete still fires flawlessly. Perhaps the problem was
that Tom had the Sound variable scoped locally to the function, while I
have mine accessible to the whole class.

Re: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
Hey - thanks Jeff and Jester. Another difference between Jeff's code and mine is that his uses the delegate to play the sound as well as to call the onSoundComplete method. I was curious why snd.start() was called twice. I removed the snd.start() call in the startSound() function and it worked - but the sound would not repeat (I added a button to repeatedly play the sound, instead of making it an initialization event). Adding the snd.start() back in allowed repeating. Not sure why this is the case. Also curious what performance difference - if any - there is between embedded and non-embedded sounds. I was able to get it to work both ways. Thanks again. - Tom At 03:55 PM 7/28/2005, you wrote: >As I say, not entirely sure why mine works when the original doesnt, but it >works, which is good enough for now. > >At 03:49 PM 7/28/2005, you wrote: > >The Activation Object is the weirdest beast...

Re: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
attachSound I reckon has less overhead because the sound and header are already embedded in the SWF. Additionally, attachSound is a syncronous opertion, where as loadSound, both streaming and non, is asyncronous. attachSound requires a sound asset be embeded in your SWF, increasing compile time, final SWF size, and loading overhead. As such, the sound is immediaetly available first frame. loadSound requires the external file be mp3 only where as attachSound allows you to import a wide array of formats, with at least 3 different codecs to choose from. loadSound can load mp3's from dynamic sources as well where as attachSound is harcoded to internal assets (like http://www.server.com/myapp.cfm?getmp3file) vs. a true file.mp3. loadSound can undocumented connect to SHOUTCast/streaming mp3 servers. I use attachSound for button clicks and other UI sounds; quick, short. I use loadSound for background music, and long voice overs (if I don't care about syncronization, or have code to handle that for me). - Original Message - From: "Tom Fitzpatrick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2005 4:50 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete Hey - thanks Jeff and Jester.

RE: [flexcoders] sound problem: onSoundComplete
Yepp, it works. I coded a SoundManager class that basically implements
the same functionality some time ago so I'm not sure why it's not
working on your side.
