Just create reference to your class. You will need that a lot ...

function connect ()

{

                mySocket = new XMLSocket ();
                        var _obj = this;

                  mySocket.onXML = function ()
                        {
                                _obj.handleIncoming();
                      }
}

Hi,

The problem here is scope. When you call parseMessages, you doing it in
the
scope of the mySocket object (where the method doesn't exist.) 

There's a pretty simple workaround for this using the Delegate utility
that
comes with Flash.

At the top of your class file, do this : import mx.utils.Delegate;

Change this line: mySocket.onXML = handleIncoming;
To this: mySocket.onXML = Delegate.create(this,handleIncoming);

And that should solve your problem. Basically you're creating a proxy
function on the XMLSocket object that then invokes the handleIncoming
function on your OSC object. There are other ways to do this, but I
think
the Delegate method is generally considered the best practice.

Hope that helps,

Jim

Subject: [Flashcoders] OOP newbie question

Hi,

 

Here is a OOP newbie question.

 

I have a class (see below)..

 

Everything works fine. but the method "handleIncoming" can not access ()
or
maybe even find) the method "parseMessages".

If I give the complete path to the instance of the OSC class (made in my
fla
- for example "_root.OSC_Obj.parseMessages (xmlIn);" ) it works.

 

How should I code this to make it works ?

 

 

class OSC

{

 

            var mySocket : XMLSocket;

//

//

            public function OSC ()

            {

                        connect ();

            }

            //

            //

            function connect ()

            {

                        mySocket = new XMLSocket ();

                        mySocket.onXML = handleIncoming;

            }

//

//

            function handleIncoming (xmlIn)

            {

                        parseMessages (xmlIn);

 

            }

//

            function parseMessages (node)

            {

actions......

}

}

 

Thanks for your attention,
