RE: [flexcoders] Re: Flex3 cookbook error in microphone example: constructor functions must be instance methods

[Alex Harui]

This compiles for me:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="400"
height="300">

<mx:Script>

    <![CDATA[

    import flash.media.Microphone;

    import flash.events.ActivityEvent;

    import flash.events.Event;

    import flash.events.StatusEvent;

    

    public var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();    // <---
gives the error

    

]]>

</mx:Script>

<mx:VBox>

</mx:VBox>

</mx:Application>

 

 

You didn't happen to name your mxml file "mic" or "Microphone" did you?

It seems to me that you've commented out the part that would prevent 
the error.

Here's the example from the Help:

package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.media.Microphone;
import flash.system.Security;
import flash.system.SecurityPanel;

public class MicrophoneExample extends Sprite {
public function MicrophoneExample() {
var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();
Security.showSettings(SecurityPanel.MICROPHONE);
mic.setLoopBack(true);

if (mic != null) {
mic.setUseEchoSuppression(true);
mic.addEventListener(ActivityEvent.ACTIVITY, 
activityHandler);
mic.addEventListener(StatusEvent.STATUS, 
statusHandler);
}
}

private function activityHandler(event:ActivityEvent):void {
trace("activityHandler: " + event);
}

private function statusHandler(event:StatusEvent):void {
trace("statusHandler: " + event);
}
}
}

It looks like Microphone might be a Singleton Class and probably you 
can't even refer to it without using getMicrophone() to get the 
instance of it.

HTH;
